Emily clamped her hand over her neck. “Ohmygosh! Really?” Her face turned crimson, while Charlie burst out laughing.

“I’m kidding. He probably put them where I can’t see them.”

“Shut up!” Emily gave her sister a shove.

Josh joined them and slapped Spencer on the back. “Buddy, you seem a lot less tense. I’ve gotta say I’m glad. You were getting pretty grouchy these last few weeks.”

She noted with astonishment Spencer only laughed and pulled Emily against him, planting a possessive kiss on her lips. He didn’t protest the comment or give the slightest indication of a blush, instead strutting and proudly showing off. While Emily, on the other hand, was flushed from the base of her neck to the top of her forehead.

Charlie and Emily ran to peer closely at their new siblings. “What are their names?” Charlie asked.

“This is Ellis, and this is Micah.” With their little green knit caps, the two looked identical.

“Ellis and Micah? Are they boys or girls or one of each?” asked Emily.

Steven grinned. “Emily, Charlie... Meet your brothers!”
