Jack looked up. “Skip the wedding? The reception yes, but I doubt when can bail when Daniel is counting on us to get him up to the alter. I don’t know why he’s even going through with this wedding.”
Lily put her hands on her hips.
“Do you have any idea what thirty-two down is that starts with B and is four letters?” Sawyer held the paper in front of her. “I could use some help before I head to the kitchen.”
She knew this was her opening. This was the chance she needed to tell them the most epic news of their lives.
She took the pencil from his other hand. “Can I fill it in for you?”
“Go for it.”
She wrote in clear print letters: B-A-B-Y and handed the crossword to Sawyer. “You might want to show thirty-two down to Jack. He should make sure it’s correct.”
Sawyer stared at the puzzle for a second. “But that’s not—that’s not the…Shit.” He looked at her and threw the paper across her and into Jack’s lap.
She bit her lip and waited for Jack to read it.
“What is it with this puzzle?” He picked up the paper. “Thirty-two down…ok…What the fuck?”
He turned to face Lily. She reached her hand under the pillow and retrieved the pregnancy test.
“Surprise.” She held it forward.
“You’re pregnant?”
“Baby? We’re going to have a baby?”
She nodded.
Jack crushed her with a hug before handing her over to Sawyer. His lips met hers. “This is the best fucking news.”
“I’m freaking out,” Lily admitted. “I knew I was over a week late and this morning I had to try the test. I didn’t want to say anything until I knew for sure. I didn’t want to get your hopes up if it was negative.” She looked at them. “You’re both excited? Are you sure?”
“Hell yeah.” Jack’s grin couldn’t be bigger. “You are carrying our child.”
Sawyer’s hand cupped her belly. Jack’s hands moved to her breasts. “We’re so happy, baby.”
“Ohh,” she moaned. “That’s…that feels good.”
Lily had known for a couple of weeks, or at least suspected. At times a quick wave of nausea would hit her during a meeting, or she would want to eat something she’d never liked before like Brussel sprouts. But her nipples had been extra sensitive and her orgasms had started spiraling out of control. She put all of it together and knew it was the only answer.
She wanted to wait and tell Jack and Sawyer though when she had a confirmed test to show them. Maybe a few hours before their friend’s wedding wasn’t the best time, but she couldn’t wait any longer. She calculated she was six weeks along.
“You like it when I rub your nipples like that?” Jack asked.
“It feels so good,” she mewed. “Even better than before. It’s like I’m on fire in a good way.”
“What about your pussy?” Sawyer waggled his eyebrows. He ducked his head under the sheet and immediately moved himself between her legs. “I want to taste your honey like this. Open your legs, baby. Let’s celebrate your beautiful new body.”
“Oh, Sawyer.” Her hands fisted through his hair as her legs fell to the side and his tongue lashed at her clit.
He moved to her stomach, kissing her belly. “Our baby is in here.”
Jack’s hands twisted and tugged at her nipples. “Look how fucking gorgeous she is.”
Lily thrashed between them. “Is someone going to fuck the pregnant girl? Please. I need your cocks.”
She saw them exchange looks.
