“But she doesn’t know about anything else?”
“Not anything else. But the pregnancy? Yes. She was there when I took all the tests.”
“All of them?”
“It was a whole ordeal. I don’t really want to get into it.”
“She’s worried all of us won’t get along at the wedding. She’s threatened to uninvite myself and the rest of our brothers in favor of you,” I said.
“What?” she asked. “Lauren’s still breathing down your necks?”
“You say that like she stopped.”
Another beautiful giggle accomplished.
“I’ll talk with Lauren. I don’t feel right about all of this anyway. If I’m going to be her maid of honor, it feels wrong to be skirting around and lying to her about things.”
“You know we’ll follow your lead, Sam. I just don’t want to tell Lauren anything unless you’ve had a say in it. Because this affects you as well.”
“I appreciate that. I really do,” she said.
“I’m glad you’re back in the wedding, though. I bet you’ll look spectacular in your dress,” I said.
“Oh, yeah. I’m sure it’ll be wonderful,” she said sarcastically. “But I did find some special suckers to help me through things, so that’s a plus.”
“Oh, that hurts,” I said with a grin.
“No. I meant actual suckers. They help with my nausea.”
“I’m sure that’s exactly what you meant.”
And there it was. Yet another giggle from those beautiful, pillowy lips.
“It’s good to hear you laugh, Samantha.”
“It feels good to be laughing,” she said. “And don’t worry about Lauren.
I’ll talk with her once the time is right. I don’t know what the fallout will be, but I can’t keep carrying this guilt around. I don’t like her not knowing.”
“I know the two of you are close,” I said. “We’re treading lightly until you can have your say.”
“How did I get so lucky with you guys?” she asked.
“I ask myself that question about you every day, Sam. And I can’t wait to see how beautiful you’ll look in your bridesmaid dress.”
“I talked her out of the ruffles, so we’re good to go,” she said. “But I have to get off here. Work still calls.”
“Don’t work yourself too hard, okay? Rest when you need it.”
“I will, Liam. I promise. Talk soon?”
“Oh, I surely hope so,” I said.
I hung up the phone and opened my eyes to find the guys standing around me. I jerked, almost falling out of my fucking chair as Logan and Levi grinned down at me.
“How long have you eavesdroppers been standing there?” I asked.
“Long enough,” Luke said in a mocking tone.
