Cali tensed. “I…no.” She stood and moved to the sink, gargling with mouthwash before she brushed her teeth. After she was done, she grabbed the water and headed to the living room, dodging the maze of boxes. When she had her phone in hand, she moved to her health app and closed her eyes when she realized her period was late, but not just this month, for the past two months.

“Shit.”

“Oh, you poor thing. You’re about to have a little freckle-faced baby.”

“Who’s having a baby?” York walked through the door carrying two oversized boxes like they weighed nothing. War was right behind him carrying two of his own. When Conner picked her place, War offered to help move her and called his boy to help. Cali was already living at his house so War felt obligated to help get Conner moved.

“Cali and your boy.”

“What about us?” War asked, looking at Conner.

“You’re having a baby. Well unless my sister cheated you are, but I’ll let y’all discuss that.”

War’s dangerous glare landed on Cali who ignored him and yelled at her sister.

“Conner, oh my fucking goodness. Why would you say something stupid like that? I am not cheating.”

“I know but it got everyone’s attention, didn’t it?” She pointed to York. “You bring those in here, so they can discuss this baby thing in private.”

He chuckled and shook his head, following Conner to the bedroom. “You’re wild as fuck for that. You better be glad he didn’t shoot both y’all’s asses on the spot.”

When they were gone, Cali quickly stated, “I just found out. Well, I don’t know for sure. My head has been swimming all day and I felt off but just a minute ago, I ditched my lunch.”

“You could be sick.”

“Is that what you want it to be, that I’m sick?”

“Cali, no, damn. I’m just trying not to freak your overthinking ass out. You can carry ten of my babies and I wouldn’t fucking think twice. If you’re pregnant, I’m good. I’m more than good. What do you want it to be, sick or a baby?”

“I haven’t thought about it.” She frowned and his eyes blazed.

“Then I’ll wait right here while you muthafuckin’ think so I can know if we’re happy about this or not.”

She arched a brow, making her way to him. “That’s not exactly how I imagined this would go.”

He shrugged. “I told you months ago, I want all this shit. That means if we created a life, I want that too. I’mma follow your lead, though.”

“I’m pretty sure I told you I wanted it all too.”

“Then we’re happy?” he asked. She nodded and yelped when he grabbed her arm and her body collided with his. His mouth was attacking hers before she could release the words she wanted to express but when he pulled back, she smiled wider.

“We’re happy. I want to find out for sure before we get too excited.”

“Aight, let me know what we need to do. Now go sit your ass down.”

“War…”

“Nah, don’t even. My baby is in there. No more lifting.”

“I have to help Conner get this place organized.”

“York can help her with that shit.”

“No the fuck he can’t. York did his part. I already brought all this shit up here. I ain’t fucking her, so this isn’t my job.”

“Let’s fuck then,” Conner stated from the hallway with her hands on her hips.

“Bruh, we’re about to head out. Y’all figure this shit out,” War mumbled, eyes darting between the two of them.
