"Congratulations Angel."
She nods her head, holding me tighter.
"Thank you, Lucas."
I grin, looking at my blood brother, to see him grinning too, before Doc speaks up.
"Um, excuse me, little miss, what about us?"
We all chuckle as Leah moves out of my arms, going over to everyone and hugging them all while I look toward Hallie with a raised brow.
She's now twisting her hair around her finger.
"Didn't you get the memo? Fuck off."
She scowls before stomping her foot like a toddler and storming away before my girl mutters, "I always hated that bitch," causing us all to laugh.
I take her out of Axel's arms and hold her close.
"I'm so fucking proud of you, Angel."
She grins, "I've still got to pass the bar exam."
I grin back. "You'll ace it, baby."
The others cheer in agreement before she hugs me again, and the weight of her not forgiving me loosens in my chest.
Baby steps.
A few hours later, I'm kissing Leah gently on the lips after carrying her to bed. She fell asleep with her head on my lap while we were watching Bridesmaids, and yes, I did actually sit and watch it—anything for my girl.
I watch her for a few minutes when there's a bang on the front door and shouting. I furrow my brows before I scowl. Whoever it is will be meeting my fucking gun if they wake my girl up.
I quickly shut the bedroom door to the master suite, where, yes, I placed her. There is no point in denying the inevitable; she already knows I climb into bed with her.
I rush downstairs as my front door bangs open, and I growl when a pissed-off Sophie rushes in with an equally pissed-off Ink who's following her.
"Sophie, you can't just fucking barge into someone else's house."
She spins around and says, "I don't give a fuck; I want to see Leah, and I want to fucking see her NOW.”
She booms the last bit, and my anger takes hold.
"What the fuck is going on?"
She turns back to me and says, "What's going on is that you two are keeping me from my friend; you not telling me about her fucking scare. Where is she?"
I shake my head. "She's asleep, Sophie, and she doesn't need the stress; she's had a long day, so why don't you go home and calm down? You can try again in a few days.
She goes to attack me while screeching, "SHE'S MY SISTER, YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE," causing Ink to wrap one arm around her middle and his other hand to cover her mouth before she wakes my girl up. I step up to her, giving Ink an apologetic look, but he nods, knowing this needs to be said.
"My pregnant woman is asleep after a long fucking day. You have no right barging in here screeching at the top of your lungs because you didn't know about her scare."
Ink clears his throat before he removes his hand from her mouth. She's seething but she needs to understand the situation.
"Pixie, for four months you have not once spoken to her, not once tried to contact her, not since you realized how lucky she was for having that last night with your momma," she stiffens in his hold, her brows furrowing, trying to remember the last time she spoke to her, but she can't. "You didn't even go to her graduation today; you forgot and went shopping with the Clitter instead." Her eyes widen, and she looks at me.
I give her a sorrowful look.
