nicest woman in the world. They were very lucky to have found her.
Even though June couldn’t take time off, she vowed that all the minutes
she spent at home would be minutes she made the absolute most of.
It wasn’t long before the cake was finished, and everyone crowded into
the meeting room started to root for the mound of presents to be opened.
June sat down beside Arabella and took her hand.
They still didn’t really do the whole PDA thing at work, but this was
technically just after work hours, and this was their baby shower. She
brought Arabella’s hand to her lips and kissed the back of her palm and the
room erupted in cheers.
Arabella went scarlet, and while the cheering and clapping was still
going strong, June leaned over and whispered in her ear. “Thank you for
making me a one plus one. You’re the best wife in the entire world. You
made me a mother and you’ve made us a family. I promise you I’m going to
do everything in my power to be worthy of your love.”
Arabella leaned to the side as much as her belly would allow her. She
wrapped her arms around June’s neck and kissed her on the lips. It might
have been a closed mouth kiss, but the room still went up in cheers again.
“Worthy?” Arabella whispered back. “Oh, my goodness, you don’t have
to try. You never had to try. You have always, always been worthy.
I love you so freaking much. I don’t know how I can be the best wife if
you’re the best wife. I’ll cede the point that we could be equally best
mothers.”
Beth approached them with another huge slice of chocolate cake. “Did
you leave room for seconds?”
Arabella clasped June’s hand tightly. “If it’s chocolate, there’s always
room for seconds.” She took the cake. “You can open all those gifts while I
sit here and eat, and brew up these babies, can’t you?”
“Absolutely, my love.” June grinned while she stood up and started for
the mound of presents. “I absolutely can.”
