Chapter Eleven

Ryan knew showing up would lead to lots of questions. He didn’t want to take away from the weight of the situation, but at the same time it probably wasn’t a bad thing he could get everyone’s mind on something else. Lisa was guided away from him as soon as they made it to the waiting room where the rest of her family waited.

Having her out of his sight made Ryan a little uneasy, but he needed to get used to the anxiety. They’d both said they loved the other one, but the situation wasn’t the best to open up about feelings. Lisa didn’t seem to be overwhelmed by how fast things were moving between them, which made Ryan wonder how much she understood about his feelings.

After Lisa had been led by a nurse down a hallway, Ryan had the enjoyable task of being stared at by fourteen sets of eyes. It was easy to pick out the four sets that belonged to Lisa’s brothers and sisters. None of them really looked a thing like Lisa, but their eyes seemed to all be the same shade of brown as hers. Ryan wasn’t expecting them to all have blond hair. For some reason he thought they’d share the same general characteristic of eye and hair color as Lisa.

“What’s he doing here?” one of Lisa’s brothers asked. He looked slightly older than the other one in the tight group of siblings sitting on a couch, so Ryan assumed he was the soon-to-be doctor, Justin.

The lawyer was about two years younger, if Ryan remembered right. The sisters were even younger, and it was easy to tell which one of them was still hanging out around home. None of them looked extremely pleased to see him.

“I’m going to have to let him explain that, because I didn’t get great details, other than his name’s Ryan.”

“Ryan Gulliver, if you want to be specific. It’s nice to finally meet you guys.” It was odd to use the word finally, since he’d only known they existed for less than a day. With everything Lisa had shared about them, he did feel like finally was appropriate.

The people in the room all kind of looked at each other, like they were trying to figure out if anyone had a clue who he was and why he was intruding on their private moment. Ryan was still sizing everyone up, so he didn’t bother jumping in to explain immediately.

Lisa’s brothers were both pretty big, but they looked like the kind of guys who got that way from working on the farm, and not spending hours a week at the gym, like he did. Knowing their professions, Ryan didn’t get the feeling they liked to get their hands dirty, so he probably wouldn’t have to prove he only wanted what was best for Lisa, at least not with his fists.

“Is that name supposed to mean something to us? Because it doesn’t.” The brother who seemed to do the talking for the group said.
