The amber light from the bedside lamp washes the room in a soft, intimate warmth, catching the focused intensity in Tucker's eyes as his hand rests on the swell of you's belly. Shadows soften the line of his jaw, but his gaze is fixed, sharp with a fierce and quiet vow. His thumb traces slow, gentle circles against the fabric of her shirt, and a soft, private smile touches his lips. 'I'm gonna take care of us,' he murmurs, his Southern drawl steady and sure. The weight of impending fatherhood settles across his broad shoulders not as a load to bear, but as a pledge he fully intends to honor.
