Chapter Eleven

~Savannah~

“What’s the biggest lie you’ve ever told?” My sister-in-law, Callie, asks me. We’re sitting in my living room, sipping wine with Kate while the others are gathered in my dining room having their tarot cards read by Mallory’s best friend, Lena.

Kate thinks about it for a while and then shrugs. “I try not to lie. What about you, Van?”

“I’m okay,” I reply and offer them both a smile. “I used to say I’m okay a lot. I wasn’t okay.”

“I hope you plan to never say that again if it isn’t true,” Callie says, swirling her wine in her glass.

“I don’t have a reason to lie these days.” I smile as the importance of that statement begins to really sink in. “And that’s a pretty cool thing.”

“Coolest thing I’ve ever heard,” Kate says with a nod. “I’m happy for you. I was worried for you for a long time, and then I was relieved that you were able to get away from that jackass motherfucker forever, but now that I can see how at peace you are, I just couldn’t be happier.”

“Don’t make me cry,” I say, pointing at her. “I don’t want to cry this expensive mascara off.”

“Okay.” She holds her hands up in surrender. “I’m not going to say any more, except atta girl.”

“Oh my gosh, you guys,” Gabby says as she rushes into the room. “You’ll never guess what Lena just told me.”

“That you’re going to win the lottery?” I ask, unable to keep from laughing when Gabby glares at me, sighing because I’ve just stolen her thunder.

“Funny. No, she said that I’m going to embark on a new journey.”

“Did she use the word embark?” Kate asks and smirks into her wine glass.

“You guys are no fun,” Gabby replies and stomps back into the dining room, her shoulders sagging in defeat.

“I just like to flip her shit,” I say to Callie and Kate. “It’s pretty much my only job as a sister. This was fun. It’s been too long since we all hung out.”

“I had a great time,” Mallory says as she joins us. She flops into a chair, looking pleasantly exhausted. She’s already started glowing with her pregnancy. Her violet eyes are shining with happiness, and the small smile on her lips gives her the I have an awesome secret tilt to it.

Except, it’s no secret. And it’s more than awesome.

“How have you been feeling?” Kate asks.

“Not horrible,” she says. “I mean, I have moments of nausea, and I’m quite sure someone keeps punching my boobs because they hurt like crazy, but otherwise, I feel healthy.”

“I have to ask,” I say and bite my lip.

“You can ask whatever you like,” she says, and I can see that she means it, so I dive in.

“I’m just wondering, since you’re psychic, can you already tell the sex of the baby?”

She smiles softly and lays her hand over her belly. “Actually, yes, which is surprising because I can’t see the future. I haven’t told Beau that yet. I knew I was pregnant before I took a test.
