the room with a smile.
The day had been perfect, with one exception: the continued standoff between Jordan and Ty. They’d been amicable enough, as neither wanted to ruin the day for her or Drake, but Mia wished she knew what the cause of the problem between the two of them was, so she could fix it.
“What’s causing that frown on my bride’s face?” Drake asked as he joined her, setting a glass on the table in front of her as he drank from his own.
“Just wishing I could help Ty and Jordan.”
“That’s for them to figure out, babe,” Drake said, leaning in to kiss her softly on the side of her neck, just under her ear.
Mia sighed.
“I know, I just want them to be happy.”
“I want you to be happy,” Drake countered, his voice low.
Mia turned to look in her husband’s milk chocolate eyes and promised, “I couldn’t be happier.”
“Me too,” he said, as he leaned down for a kiss.
Before his lips touched hers, Mia said, “I bet I could make you happier.”
Drake paused a breath away and cocked his head, “You can, can you?”
Mia bit her lower lip to keep from smiling like crazy and nodded.
“How’s that?” he asked, his eyes turning suggestive as he misread her intent.
Unable to keep it to herself anymore, Mia brought her hands up to turn his head and whispered in his ear.
“I’m pregnant.”
Drake’s head turned slowly back so that he looked at her face.
“Really?”
Mia started to say yes, but before she could get the word out, she was lifted out of her chair and spun around the room.
The music stopped when Drake roared with delight.
“We’re having babies!” Drake shouted to the room, causing everyone to start clapping.
Mia was laughing as her friends rushed to hug her, and she accepted their thanks with a smile before what Drake had said penetrated. She turned to her husband, who was happily clapping Ty on the shoulder, and asked, “Babies?”
Tyson grinned at Drake and said, “Looks like you two need some alone time.” He gave her a wink before turning and walking away.
Mia crossed to Drake, whose arms immediately came around her and cradled her as if she were made of glass.
“Plural?” she prompted.
Drake smiled down at her and said, “It’s not uncommon for us to have three or more children at once.”
“Three or more?” Mia asked, suddenly worried.
“Don’t worry, babe, it’ll be fine. I’ll be with you through all of it.”
“We’re going to be busy,” Mia replied, chewing on her lower lip as she thought of all of the diapers and supplies they’d need. And clothes. And furniture.
“Hey,” Drake said, pulling her attention back to him. “We’ll be fine… better than fine. Okay?” When Mia nodded, he traced her lower lip with his finger tip and gave her a wicked grin. “But you’re right, we will be busy, so I think we should get out of here now and start enjoying our time together as husband and wife, before our family gets a lot bigger. What do you say? You ready to get out of here?”
“Absolutely,” she replied, then laughed happily when he lifted her in to his arms and marched out of the reception without a backwards glance.
