“Yes,” I said. “Call them right now. Right from bed. Let’s tell them we’re having a girl. Come on, please?”
“Wouldn’t you rather me make you come one more time?”
I laughed. “Atlas, I think if I come one more time, my body is going to hang aDO NOT DISTURBsign between my legs.”
Atlas laughed. “You really want me to call them?”
“Yeah. I do.”
He turned and reached for his phone.
“I have to call Henry,” he said. “He’s the only one I really know. He and I go way back.”
“You played together when you were younger?”
“Yeah. He was destined to be a star right winger.”
“And you were destined to be a bully?”
“Not a bully. An enforcer. A pain in the ass.”
“Well, you certainly are that.”
“What?”
“A pain in the ass,” I smiled.
“Oh, love, if it was a pain in the ass you felt, you wouldn’t have gotten pregnant.”
I cried out with laughter and shook my head. “That’s disgusting, Atlas!”
He laughed.
I laughed.
We were just two people naked in bed, laughing together.
It felt so right.
It felt crazy too.
And I felt so pregnant.
“Atlas?” Henry’s voice asked.
I turned my head and realized Henry was on the screen.
“Are you naked?” Henry asked.
“We both are,” Atlas said.
“Who’s naked?”
A second later, there were faces everywhere on the screen.
“Hazel is naked,” Rome said.
“Now why are those blankets covering up so much?” Jago asked.
