Chapter Six

"Hey there, sexy." TJ smiled at me when I closed the door behind me, hearing the distinctive growl of the Mustang taking off outside with Josh at the wheel.

"Hi." I smiled back. "Is the princess all tucked in?"

Ronnie nodded, lifting her head from TJ’s chest. "I told her you'd peek in on her though and say goodnight."

"Okay." They looked so cozy together, and part of me wanted to settle myself between them—but another part of me suddenly felt like it didn't belong there. I couldn’t help but think of Josh. What was I getting myself into? "Let me get changed and I'll join you. What are you watching?"

" Crazy Heart. It just started." Ronnie grabbed the remote to pause it. "It's supposed to be good."

I stopped by Beth's room first. She was curled up under the covers, her thumb stuck firmly in her mouth, but her head popped up when I opened the door.

"Did Mr. Josh drive you home?" she asked sleepily.

"He did." I came to sit on the bed next to her.

"I like him." Her voice sounded dreamy and far away. I know how you feel, kid, I thought. "Hey guess what?"

"What?"

"Mommy's going to have a baby!" she whispered loudly.

I gasped. "Did they tell you that?"

"No." She was still whispering, as if they might hear her. "They talked about it in the car. They thought I was listening to my iPod but the sound was off."

"Sneaky Pete." I laughed. "Did you tell them you know?"

"Nuh-uh." Obviously—no wonder she was speaking in hushed tones. "Will it be a brother or a sister, do you think?"

"I don't know." I brushed her hair away from her face. "How do you feel about having a little brother or sister?"

"Okay I guess." She didn't sound thrilled. "Colin from school has a baby sister and he says she smells."

"Babies can be smelly." I tried not to laugh. "But they can be lots of fun, too."

"I hope ours is fun."

"It will be," I assured her, tucking the covers all around her body, making a little Bethie-burrito the way she liked.

"I'm sleepy," she murmured. "G'nite, Janie."

"Good night, precious."

I quickly changed into a baby-doll nightgown and towel-dried my hair, knowing they were waiting for me to start the movie. TJ whistled when I came out, his eyes lighting up. I just smiled, slipping onto the couch next to them. Ronnie was next to TJ, her cheek resting on his bare chest, and I slipped between her thighs, my head on her belly. She was wearing boy shorts and a t-shirt, but it pulled up a little, giving me a sweet view of her navel.

Crazy Heart was fantastically good—Jeff Bridges clearly earned the Oscar—but kind of sad. I think it brought us all a two-hour dose of reality we wanted to find a way to escape from for a while.

I debated telling them that Beth knew about the baby, but I didn't want to spoil any surprise they had planned. Ronnie had really started to show—or maybe I had just really started to notice.
