**Chapter 34: Weekend Getaway**

Part 34

The anticipation was palpable as Maya and Sean finalized their plans for the weekend. With Clary agreeing to watch Maddy, they were free to indulge in a romantic escape to the cabin. As they packed their bags, Maya couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and nervousness. She had been looking forward to this weekend for what felt like an eternity, and now that it was finally here, she was eager to spend some quality time with Sean. As they loaded up the car, Sean couldn't help but tease Maya about her glowing complexion. "You're radiant, you know that?" he said, smiling at her. Maya blushed, feeling a little self-conscious about her pregnancy glow. "It's just the babies, that's all," she said, laughing. Sean chuckled and reached out to brush a strand of hair behind her ear. "I think it's more than that," he said, his eyes sparkling with affection. "I think you're glowing because you're happy." Maya's heart skipped a beat as she met his gaze. She couldn't deny the truth in his words. She was happy, and it was all because of Sean. As they hit the road, Maya felt a sense of contentment wash over her. She was exactly where she was meant to be – with the man she loved, on her way to a weekend of relaxation and romance. The drive to the cabin was scenic, winding through rolling hills and dense forests. Maya and Sean chatted easily, catching up on each other's lives and sharing stories. They laughed and joked, their banter comfortable and familiar. As they arrived at the cabin, Maya felt a sense of nostalgia wash over her. She and her family had spent many weekends here when she was a child, and it was a place that held a special spot in her heart. Sean seemed to sense her emotions, and he reached out to take her hand as they stepped out of the car. "I'm glad we could come here," he said, smiling at her. "It's beautiful." Maya nodded, feeling a sense of gratitude towards him. "Me too," she said. "It's a special place for me." As they unpacked and settled into the cabin, Maya couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement building inside her. She knew that this weekend was going to be a special one, a chance for her and Sean to connect on a deeper level. As the sun began to set, casting a golden glow over the forest, Maya and Sean sat down on the porch to watch the stars come out. They sat in comfortable silence, holding hands and enjoying each other's company. As the night wore on, Sean turned to Maya and smiled. "I'm glad we're doing this," he said, his eyes locked on hers. "I needed this." Maya's heart skipped a beat as she met his gaze. "Me too," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. Sean's eyes crinkled at the corners as he smiled. "I have a feeling this is going to be a weekend to remember," he said, his voice low and husky. Maya's pulse quickened as she nodded in agreement. She had a feeling that this weekend was going to be one for the books, a chance for her and Sean to take their relationship to the next level. And she couldn't wait to see what the future held.
