“I think she’ll say it’s about damn time I met a nice girl.Last time I was home, she accused me of being gay.”

“Really?”she asked with a laugh.

“Yep.And funnily enough, I was wearing the penguin suspenders.”

“On second thought, why don’t you find a pair with some scissors on them?Hair dryer?curling iron?”

“Becausethatwon’t send a gay signal at all.”

“But it will let every, single woman in town know you’re mine.”She began kissing her way up his neck and bit his earlobe.“What do you say?”

“Get a room.Get a room,” Igor called from his perch in the corner.

CC sighed.“I hate that damn bird.”

Annie walked around the corner and smiled knowingly.“I’m with Igor.Go get a damn room.You’re going to traumatize the animals.”

“What do ya say, Snaps?Want to go watch someStranger Things?”

“Since we haven’t watched one episode, I’m beginning to think that might be code for something else.”

“Do you have a problem with that?”she asked, one eyebrow raised in question.

“Absolutely not.Let’s gonotwatch someStranger Thingsright now.”Brant took her and in his, lifted it to his lips and kissed her knuckles.When he moved to Parker, he never thought he’d find this.Now, he couldn’t imagine ever leaving.

“So what arewe going to do for this shower?”Annie and CC were sitting in their favorite booth at Sadie’s, a plate of fried pickles and ranch dressing in the middle of the table.

“I don’t know.Shouldn’t we find out the gender or something so we can make the reveal?”

“Already done,” Annie said, drowning a pickle in ranch before shoving it in her mouth.“Breck gave me permission to call her doctor the other day.I got the results.”

“And you didn’ttell me?”CC squeaked.“I hate you.”

Her friend rolled her eyes.“No, you don’t.Besides, you’ve been so googly-eyed at Doctor Love I didn’t figure you’d want me to interrupt.”

“Well, you were wrong.And I’m not google—”

“Save it.You’re totally googly-eyed.”

“So are you going to tell me what the gender is?”

Annie’s grin stretched from ear to ear.“A girl!”

“Oh, poor Griff.He better keep his hair short or it’s gonna turn gray!”

“I know!But she will bebeautiful.”

CC nodded her agreement.“Yes, she will.So, what are we thinking for the reveal?”

“I looked up a bunch of gender reveal ideas on Pinterest but I think the neatest one is to have Sadie make her amazing strawberry cake with cream cheese frosting.That way, when they cut the cake it will be pink!Not elaborate, but I don’t think they want elaborate.They aren’t fancy people.”

CC grinned.“I think that’s perfect.”

“What’s perfect?”Sadie walked up to their booth and scooted CC over so she could sit.

“Want to make Breck and Griff’s gender reveal cake?”Annie asked.

“Only if you tell me what they’re having.”
