“Fight at my fucking wedding and I will never forgive you.”

So, a ten.

Aidan stepped back, cursing.

“Go walk it off,” Logan said as Emma walked over and joined them. She had her dress scooped up in her hand and a glass of champagne in the other.

“What’s going on?” Emma asked as Andrew walked away.

Aidan shook his head. “What the fuck is his problem?”

Logan turned and stared after their father. It looked like their mother was having a go at him about something now. She shook her head and then stormed into the house.

“Should I go?” Emma asked.

“No.” Logan held out his hand to stop her. Then turned to him. “Something’s not right. I know Dad can be a prick at times, but this is crazy.”

Amelia wandered over.

“Aimes, has Dad started on at you about getting married?” Aiden asked.

She nodded and tossed back her champagne.

“Oh yeah. I got a whole lecture two weeks ago, and he tried to set me up on a date with that McKenzie guy. You know, Dad’s lawyer’s son.”

Wow!

“The five-foot-three guy?” Aidan asked.

Amelia nodded slowly.

“Already receding hairline at twenty-seven and...and,” she emphasized, “he’s an accountant.”

“Oooh, no.” Emma shook her head in disgust. “No, Amelia, you need someone way more dynamic than that.”

They were getting off track here.

“My point being, he’s been doing the same to me,” Aidan shared.

“Parents do that,” Emma said. “When they start getting older. Plus, with us getting married, it triggers all the wedding and baby conversations.”

Babies.

God.

He needed to think about whether he wanted kids. Lily would. She said she loved kids.

Hell, why hadn’t he thought about all this before now? She’d want to know.

“Who does he want you to marry?” Emma asked him.

“Not Lily, that’s for sure,” Logan said, and as Aidan’s eyebrows shot up, he saw the moment his big-mouthed brother realized what he’d done.

“Lily?” Emma asked, laughing, and then her smile faded.

“Oh, boy,” Amelia said and began to walk backward. Aidan glared at her. “Gotta go powder my nose and stuff.” She disappeared.

Fucking chicken.
