Seducing the Bridesmaid (Wedding Dare, #3)(48)
“We don’t know that there’s a baby.”
“Don’t we?” He hugged her tighter. “It’s okay to be scared. I think we’d be idiots not to be. Raising a kid is no joke. But if anyone can pull it off, it’s you and me, together. We make a hell of a team.” She could hear the smile in his voice. “Besides, a kid with half of each of us? She’ll be the coolest kid that there ever was.”
“Why are you so set on a girl?”
“I’d be happy with either. But I grew up in a family of boys. It’d be wonderful to raise a little girl.”
Famous last words. “Until puberty.”
Brock laughed and stepped back. “It’s time.” He stopped in the bathroom door, his smile melting away. “Unless you don’t want kids? Shit, Regan, I’m sorry. I didn’t even stop to think about what you might want.”
He’d do it, too. If she said she didn’t want a baby right now, he’d stand by her decision, no matter how much he wanted one. Just when she thought she couldn’t love this man any more, it hit her hard enough that she actually staggered. Instantly, he was there, holding her up, concern written across his face. She patted his shoulder. “I’m okay.”
She straightened and headed into the bathroom. There was no decision to make—if she was pregnant with Brock’s baby, she’d move heaven and earth to keep their child safe. Now they just needed to know if they were getting riled up over nothing.
But when she got to the counter, she couldn’t make herself pick it up. “You look. I can’t.”
He lifted her, studying the little window. When he looked at her, a big, stupid grin spread across his face. “Plus sign.”
She was pregnant. Regan touched her stomach, marveling at how her world had just turned on its head, but her body hadn’t changed in the slightest. “We’re having a baby.” She looked up, realizing that he had no idea what had been going through her mind. “If it’s a girl, don’t you think for a moment that I’m going to let you spoil her rotten and turn her into a little princess. She’ll be a monster if we don’t have some ground rules.”
He let out a whoop and spun her around the tiny bathroom. “I can’t promise you a damn thing, but I reckon a little spoiling never hurt anyone.”
She laughed. “With our luck, it’s going to be a boy who will be just as much of a hell-raiser as you and your friends were growing up.”
“Why stop there? Maybe it’s both.”
Both? She gave him a mock glare. “We are not having twins.”
Oh God, what if they were having twins? No. No way. The universe was not that much of an *…
