Chapter Eleven
“Whoa momma, how many little critters do you have in there?” Christa laughed, putting down the tray of cups and the teapot to help Meredith and Alicia through the door. Meredith was around four months pregnant, her stomach so huge she could barely stand to walk for more than a few minutes.
Jamia emerged from Ray and Christa’s kitchen with a tray of goodies and finger sandwiches. “How are my niece and nephew?” She giggled, setting own her tray and going to take the two bags from Alicia’s arm.
Meredith collapsed onto the couch. “Oof! They’re keeping me up all night. I swear to god I think one of them almost kicked Gerard out of bed the other night.” She hooted, trying to get situated on the couch to get comfortable. “I can’t believe it’s already been a week since Dr. Wyatt told me that we’re having a girl and a boy.”
“You, I can’t believe you and Gee are going to be parents.” Alicia said, sitting beside her friend.
Christa poured each of them a cup of chamomile tea. “What’s the due date?” She asked, handing them their tea.
Meredith leaned forward as much as she could to massage her back. “The end of June, but most likely the first of July.” She said, taking a sip from her cup.
“Well that’s good. Hey, what did you Mom and brother and sister say about twins?” Jamia asked curiously, taking a seat in the single wing backed chair across from them.
Alicia laughed. “You should have heard Ana. We were driving the one day and Mare called her and Ana was like, ‘I can’t believe you’re having twins! You’re going to be dealing with two little babies at the same time!’”
Meredith shot her friend a pointed look.
“You won’t be alone through this, Mare.” Christa reassured her. “You’re going to have Gee, your family, and all of us. Even the guys.” She patted their friend’s hand.

“Gee, can you order me Chinese?”
Gerard looked down at Meredith. They had just sat down to watch the latest episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians. Secretly, they both loved the reality TV show. “We just ate.” He said quizzically.
Meredith sighed. “But the twins are hungry.” She stretched her arms, cracking her back. “Your little Elena’s gonna be one healthy girl.” She smiled cheekily, patting her growing stomach.
Gee shook his head, a small lopsided smile on his face. “Mare, you just ate though. You’re really hungry still? Or are you having one of these weird cravings?”
She shot him a dirty look. “Hey, they’re your kids.”
“Oh that’s very mature, Meredith.” Gerard laughed, getting up to go look through the Chinese takeout menu. “What would you like, babe?”

Bob had heard the news. At their last meeting, Gerard had announced that he and Meredith were having twins, a boy and a girl. Bob had felt like throwing up. God he had fucked up.
He laid in bed, Amelia had spent the night. What time was it? Three in the morning. Huh, he had thought he hadn’t slept at all.
Shit. He may had been drunk that night, but he had been sober enough to know it was Meredith who crawled into his bunk, which was across from her fiancé’s. Who had just pledged her engagement to Gerard, one of his best friends. They both had had blonde hair. Of course she would have thought Bob was Gerard. He should have pushed her away, put her back into Gerard’s bunk where she belonged.
But fuck, part of him had always wondered what it would be like to sleep with Meredith. He was pretty sure all the guys had. And why shouldn’t they? She was beautiful, no one could deny that. She had that curly blonde hair and those ocean blue eyes. He always wondered if Gerard made her straighten her hair. It was beautiful curly or straight, but she had waves that just … drove every guy nuts.
He always noticed the guys checking her out. Yes, they had their wives, but everyone checked everyone out. And Meredith, with her long legs and curvy hips and …
“Someone’s happy to be awake.” Amelia snickered, her fingers lightly tracing the outline of the tent he had pitched in his pants. She yawned and stretched like a cat, grinning at him.
He gave a small laugh, his mind on other things.
