Chris raised his brows. “Happy?”
“About what?” Brett asked.
Clearly, they were confused.
“With Anna and Nina.” He cleared his throat. “You’re happy.”
“Ridiculously so,” Chris said, grinning. They’d been married for a little over a year or so, and as far as Wyatt could tell, they’d never fought in their lives.
He turned to Brett. He knew for a fact he and Anna got into it a lot. They were both too stubborn to get along all the time. “And you?”
“I love her with all my heart.”
Wyatt swallowed.
“But are you happier with her?”
“Of course,” he said slowly, even more confused.
He glanced at Cole. “And you’re happy single?”
“Uh…” Cole hesitated, glancing over his shoulder. “I mean, yes. I guess so.”
“Why are you asking us this?” Chris asked slowly, his eyes wide. “Holy. Shit. Did you…did you meet a girl?”
He said that with as much shock as someone would say, Did you kill a monkey in your sleep? Like it was an impossible possibility. Wyatt didn’t blame him one bit. All his adult life, he’d been professing his desire to remain single. He’d sworn to never fall.
And yet…
Here he was.
Fallen.
“No. No way,” Brett said, laughing and shaking his head. “It’s gotta be something else. Anything else. Did you lose your foreign sponsor?”
Cole lifted a brow. “You got a foreign deal?”
The sponsor Kassidy had helped him get? Even thinking her name made his chest tighten and his muscles ache to go to her house, knock on her door, and apologize for leaving. “No. I mean, no, I didn’t lose the deal. And yes, I got one.”
“Then…” Brett broke off, his jaw dropping. “Holy shit. It’s actually a girl, isn’t it?”
Wyatt ducked his head, not answering.
This was about so much more than just a girl.
They’d made a person.
A whole fucking person.
“Yes.” Chris laughed, jumped off his stool, and clapped Wyatt on the back. “I was right? You owe me twenty bucks, Brett.”
Wyatt lifted his head, scowling. “Are you kidding me? You bet against me? Your own brother?”
“Yep,” Chris said without a hint of shame. He held his hand out to Brett, wriggling it. “Who is she?”
Brett pulled a twenty out of his pocket and slammed the bill into Chris’s hand. “She better be fantastic, since you made me lose to Chris again.”
“I can’t help it that I’m better at this shit than you are,” his brother said, lifting a shoulder. “What’s her name?”
