Luca helped her out of the car later that afternoon. His hand steady at her lower back as they made their way up the front steps. He could see she was still tired and clearly still in pain. The doctor had told them Sutton could be in pain for at least another month—not only from giving birth to Miles but also from her fall.
When they got inside, Sutton went straight to the room they were going to use for Miles when he got home. He watched her turn on the light and stand in the middle of the room looking around.
He could feel her pain from here. Every day she left the hospital without Miles was heartbreaking for her and him. More so because her pain was there for all to see.
“We’ll bring him home soon,” Luca said beside her, putting his arm around her waist. “We’re so close.”
