Chapter 4

Bristol

I put my feet up and groaned. “Why am I one hundred and seven weeks pregnant. Why does someone think that this is okay to do to me?” I asked, and narrowed my eyes at my loving and handsome and evil husband.

Marcus just shook his head. “I realize that you didn’t get pregnant all by yourself, and I had some help in that, but you look gorgeous, so don’t growl at me.”

“Ixnay on the growlingay,” Ethan whispered as he held Kingston to him, trying to get the little tyke to calm down. He was screaming, the colic a little too much for my nephew. And then my brother-in-law Lincoln took Kingston from his husband’s arms, and the baby quieted down. My brother narrowed his eyes at his husband, and Lincoln just grinned before leaving the living room.

“I’m pretty sure he did that on purpose,” Holland said, staring at her husbands and baby. “This week is all about Lincoln, but I think if we’re true to form, next week Kingston will stop screaming while he’s in my arms.”

I blinked and looked over at my sister-in-law. “That’s a thing? They take their turns?”

“Kingston seems to. And we’re going to pretend that that’s normal,” Holland said, before she yawned so wide I swore I could see her tonsils. “Sorry,” she mumbled and leaned against the soft cushion. “I think I’ve had around eight minutes of sleep this week.”

“That bad?” I asked, anxiety filling me. I put my hands on my stomach, felt a kick, and patted the little baby’s foot. “I really like sleep.”

“And you do a lot of it,” Marcus teased, rubbing my ankles.

“You’re lucky I love you, and you’re lucky that you’re rubbing my feet right now, or I would kick you. I just really want you to keep rubbing.”

“Anything you say, wife of mine.”

“That’s the way,” Aaron said, laughing as he handed his wife Madison a glass of water. “See? We need to follow Marcus’s advice. He knows what he needs to do as a husband.”

“Do whatever she says,” I agreed, and Marcus just rolled his eyes at me. “Sure, honey, whatever you say.”

“See,” I said, raising a hand, and then I groaned, with the baby kicking at my bladder. “I’ll have to get up soon to pee. This baby keeps kicking and rolling in certain places.”

“Are you dilated at all?” Holland asked, and Ethan shuddered.

“Please stop talking about my sister and dilation. There were a lot of things I learned during the childbirth process, things that will never leave my mind again, but I don’t need to associate them with my sister.”

“Amen,” Aaron said, and I flipped them both off, grateful that Lake, the only one of my nieces and nephews who were old enough to understand the gesture, wasn’t in the room at the moment.

“Grace and elegance, that is Bristol,” Liam muttered, and I growled.

“I am past due on this baby, the size of a beached whale, and still retaining so much water at this point, I feel like I could float.
