“Avoiding a discussion you don’t want to have.”

As they stepped into the half empty room, Nicola shook her head. “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”

“And let’s leave it at that,” Serenity said. “So, the guys are going to add another room, and move this stuff there. Or, do you think we should have the baby room over by us?”

“You aren’t as smooth at deflecting as you think you are.”

She smiled. “Yes, but you love me, so you will let me get away with it.”

Nicola tried to look stern, but she broke down. “You suck.”

“No comment.”

Nicola chuckled. “I still want to know what he was talking about.”

“You won’t like it.”

“That’s what I do. I deal with the parts of life that people don’t like. And, you also know that if you don’t tell me, I will get it out of Adam. Those two are so easy to squeeze information from.”

Serenity rolled her eyes. “That’s why I wouldn’t let them talk to you. They want to tell everyone I’m pregnant.”

“They don’t care who the father is, genetically I mean?”

“Nope. They’re excited, that’s it. They say it will be both of theirs.”

“Well, they are good at sharing,” she said.

Serenity stared at her for a second then snorted. “Yeah. They are good at that.”

“So...”

“Okay, but don’t bother me about it later. Deal with Adam.”

“Scout’s honor.”

“You were never in the scouts any more than I was.”

“Stop stalling, Jones.”

“Okay. It wasn’t that big, but Adam thinks that Jensen has a thing for you.”

She frowned. “Really? I think he would rather I just didn’t exist lately. He’s been very difficult.”

“See. I think he’s crazy.”

“What made him think that?”

“When you were dealing with that tabloid reporter last year, he said Jensen sounded in awe.”

She rolled her eyes. “That all has to do with what I can do for him.”

“Exactly.”

“He was weird about me coming over here tonight.”

“What?”

“He was questioning me about Adam and Mick, like we were going to have an orgy.”
