Never Enough (Meet Me in Montana 1)

I smiled and noticed the wedding ring on his left hand. “Do you have any kids?”

He seemed surprised at my question and then glanced down to his ring. “Nah. We’re separated. She doesn’t like all the traveling and says my job is insane.”

I frowned. “Did she not know what you did for a living when y’all got married?”

Pitt laughed, looked at Dirk and Ty, and nudged his thumb in my direction. “I like her. I see why Brock does too.”

Kaylee sat pretty quietly next to me the entire meal. I picked at most of my food, not in the mood to eat, and when I stood, the room started to spin.

“Whoa,” I said, reaching out for something to steady myself.

“Lincoln!” Kaylee yelped, grabbing on to me right as I sank to the ground.

And blackness took over completely.

My eyes flew open, and I instantly panicked. Where am I?

Sitting up, I glanced around to see Ty and Kaylee both in chairs, sleeping. My head was pounding, and I felt a little sick to my stomach.

“Wh-what happened?” I mumbled, touching the side of my head with my hand.

Ty and Kaylee both jumped up. They wore goofy smiles on their faces as they looked at each other and then back to me.

“I’ll let the nurse know she’s up,” Ty said, squeezing Kaylee’s hand.

Okay, am I dreaming, or did I just witness a kind gesture between the two of them? “I’m dreaming, right?”

“No. Why?”

“I swear I just saw Ty grab your hand.”

Kaylee pulled the chair up next to me and sat down. “We called a truce.”

“Good.”

“So, I have something I need to tell you.”

A feeling of dread swept over me. “Brock—”

“Is fine!” she said, cutting me off. “He’s not awake yet, but he’s fine.”

I let out a breath of air.

“But I think you might have something to tell him that could possibly nudge him into waking up.”

My brows lifted. “I do?”

Her face broke out into a wide grin. The door opened, and Ty walked back in. Kaylee looked up at him and shook her head, causing him to come around and stand next to her. The two of them still wore the goofiest of smiles.

“Have y’all been drinking?” I asked, my gaze bouncing between them.

“No!” Kaylee said. “But we wanted to be the first to tell you, because I’m pretty damn sure you’re clueless!”

Drawing my brows in tight, I said, “Huh? Okay, you know what? You two have fun with that. I need to get out of here.”

Ty placed his hand on my shoulder as I started to get up. “The nurse is getting the doctor. He wants to take one last look at you, and then you’ll be able to go to Brock.”

“They admitted me? For fainting?”

Kaylee nodded and said, “They had to give you an IV and such because you were dehydrated. But who cares about that, Lincoln? We’ve got some pretty big news, so I need you to take a deep breath, slowly let it out, and hold on to your boots.”

Ty leaned down so he was at the same eye level as Kaylee.

“Holy hell, you two slept together!”

They both frowned, looked at each other, and then back to me.

“I wish,” Ty said.

Kaylee slapped him on the chest. “No, that’s not it. Lincoln—you’re pregnant.”

Ty and Kaylee both smiled. Big. So big that it was sort of creepy.

I chuckled. “What?” Her words replayed in my head, but they were so ridiculous that I had to laugh.

“You’re pregnant,” Ty repeated. “You’ve got a bun in the oven. You’re knocked up. There’s a bat in the cave. You’re in the family way. There’s a pea in the pod. You are preggo. Preggers. A baby Shaw is kicking around in there.”

“Are you done?” Kaylee asked as I slowly sat straighter and stared at them. “Seriously, did you google all that in the last few hours?”

Ty smirked. “You’re just jealous you couldn’t come up with any of it.”

“What? I’m the one who said there was a bat in the cave! You took that from me!”

Rolling his eyes, Ty said, “It’s my nephew.”

“Well, it’s my niece.”

“Not by blood.”

I shook my head and buried my face in my hands. “Wait. What?” I mumbled as Ty and Kaylee went at it.

But then the realization of what they’d said sank in.

“Stop!” I nearly screamed, making them both turn my way to give me those creepy smiles again. “I can’t be pregnant! I’m on the pill, and Brock wore a condom each time. So there’s a mistake. We’ve only had sex . . . a few times!”

Kaylee pulled in a breath and blew it out before she said, “I hate to break this news flash to you, but it only takes once. You’re pregnant. They drew blood, and it came back saying you were preggers. Now, I did have to lie and tell them I was your sister to get said information, but it was a lie I’m glad I told!”
