A bouncing baby boy.

After just three and a half hours of active labour, Alec and Keela were the proud parents of a beautiful baby boy who weighed seven pounds even and was twenty inches long. That was as much information as Branna had given me, Damien, and Ryder as we crowded around my phone to listen to the news in the garage. I screamed and jumped up and down with delight; Ryder and Damien hugged and patted the hell out of each other’s back. Ryder gave me a squeeze, then Damien got his hands on me and held me so tight I felt his happiness deep in my bones.

“You’re an uncle,” I beamed. “Again.”

“And you’re an aunt again.”

“Auntie,” I jokingly corrected. “Oh, I want to see ‘im so bad.”

“Me too,” he said and checked the clock on the wall. “It’s only four ten … How long do we have to wait for visiting hours?”

“Six, I think.” I groaned. “That’s gonna take forever.”

I looked down at my phone when it pinged, and I screamed when I saw the first picture of Alec, Keela, and their stunning son.

“He’s a redhead!” I gushed. “Look at all his hair! Slater babies do not come out of the womb bald!”

Ryder and Damien stared at the picture.

“Look at how happy he is,” Ryder commented softly. “I never thought I’d see him so complete.”

My heart warmed. “He has his family.”

Damien gave me a squeeze, and I knew he wanted what Alec had, what Ryder had, and what his other brothers had. A family. Children. A marriage. I wanted that too, and the longer this day carried on, Damien’s and my relationship being rushed didn’t seem as big of a problem as it did two days ago.

“He’s gorgeous,” I said, staring at the baby. “He looks so much like both of them … but that hair. It’s just like Keela’s.”

“Red hair is a colour we don’t have in our family,” Damien commented. “Mine and the twin’s hair are the only different ones out of all of us. Everyone else has dark brown hair.”

“Things are changing, little brother.” Ryder chuckled. “You aren’t the odd one out anymore.”

Damien snorted as he gazed at the picture of his nephew. “He looks like Jax.”

“He does,” I agreed. “And that means he looks like Locke because those two are the double of Kane, and Nixon and Jules look just like you, Ry. There are so many mini Slater lads.”

“Then there is Georgie who is a Murphy girl to the core.” Damien chuckled.

“She has Nico’s dimples, so she’s not entirely a Murphy. She has some Slater genes in ‘er. Don’t worry about that.”

After two more hours of waiting, the lads were finally ready to leave work, and we headed straight to the hospital. I practically sprinted ahead of them once I knew what floor and ward Keela and the baby were on.

“Are you crying’?” I called out to Alec, whose smile stretched from ear to ear as he came to greet us.

“No,” he called back, wiping under his eyes.
