Paisley
All my life, all I’ve wanted is to belong… to anyone. A family, a friend group, and once I was a little bit older… a boyfriend, husband, or even better… a Daddy.
But as I grew up, I came to learn that belong is just a six-letter word, and I was better off on my own. That was what I told myself anyway. It was easier that way.
But with age comes wisdom, and finally, five years later, in a new town with new friends, and a potential new Daddy, the hole in my heart is starting to feel more like a scratch.
Until just like always, a small event turns cataclysmic once feelings get involved and I realize nothing is ever really going to change for me…
Axel
I don’t mean to be a grumpy bastard, I just am.
That’s what everyone tells me anyway.
It’s been that way since I lost my wife. It’s hard to let anyone in once you’ve known a loss so great it could have killed you.
The only people I make exceptions for are the Littles at the club.
Especially the closed-off, but super-sweet Paisley.
I try to keep her at arm’s length, but after a simple playdate ends with her in a cast, suddenly I’m feeling things I swore I’d never let myself feel again, and I find myself wondering…
Can a grumpy Daddy finally give a lonely Little the one thing she’s always wished for? Can a lonely Little give a grumpy Daddy a reason to smile again?
