Chapter 15

“Happiness is having a large, loving, caring, close-knit family in another city.”

—George Burns

Even with his brothers busting his balls, nothing could put a damper on Wade’s good mood. For so long, he’d wished Mia could be with him on days like this, regular days in which nothing out of the ordinary took place. Skating with his siblings, dinner with the family… This was his life, and she was now part of it and seeming to enjoy her first exposure to the crazy Abbotts. And after dinner, he got to go home with her, sleep with her, make love with her.

This had been the best weekend of his life, and it wasn’t over yet.

At dinner, Wade sat between Mia and Max, who held baby Caden while he tried to eat with one hand.

“Let me take him,” Wade offered.

“I won’t say no to that,” Max said, handing over the baby.

“What a cutie,” Mia said.

Caden grasped the finger she offered and tried to put it into his mouth.

“He’s teething,” Max said. “Everything goes in his mouth.”

“Hey, buddy,” Wade said, bouncing Caden on his lap. The baby’s hair and eyebrows were so blond, they were nearly white. He had big light brown eyes like Max’s and a gummy smile that made Wade melt every time he looked at his nephew. Caden had been a revelation to him. He’d never given much thought to having kids of his own until Caden arrived and made him wonder what it might be like.

“Can I hold him?” Mia asked.

“Sure, go ahead,” Max said.

Wade handed him over.

“Hey, pal, I’m your new aunt Mia.”

Caden grasped a handful of her hair.

Wade carefully extracted her hair before Caden could yank on it. Seeing her holding the baby filled him with yearning for things he hadn’t wanted before he had her. What might it be like to have a family with her? He’d spent so much time wishing to have her in his life, and now that she was here, he wanted everything with her—and he wanted it right now.

“Do you like kids, Mia?” Charley asked.

Wade glared at his sister.

“What?” Charley asked. “I’m just trying to get to know my new sister-in-law.”

“I love them,” Mia said, smiling at Caden as she entertained him.

“Charley says she doesn’t want kids,” Ella said. “Can you imagine growing up in this house and not wanting kids?”

Charley rolled her eyes at her sister. “One madhouse per lifetime. That’s my rule.”

“Children aren’t for everyone,” Molly said. “Good thing for all of you that your dad and I had no such reservations.”

“Evidence indicates you had no reservation,” Colton muttered, setting off a wave of laughter.

“What can I say?” Molly flashed a wicked grin. “Your dad is irresistible.”

“Ugh,” Wade said as the others groaned loudly. “For God’s sake, can we please not show Mia how bad we can get on her first day with us?”

“She may as well know what she’s getting into from the get-go,” Hunter said. “This is us on best behavior.”

“Don’t behave on my account,” Mia said. “I’m finding you all very entertaining.
