“In the living room!” I yell.

Mason called Cooper to go out shopping with him and Jaylinn is playing babysitter to me. My loving fiancée doesn’t want me to be alone and wants me waited on hand and foot.

Cooper walks in, towing Jaylinn behind him. He places a kiss on my cheek, “Hey pretty mama.”

I roll my eyes, “This mama is not pretty. You should see the stretch marks I’ve got now.”

Mason comes in with a glass of milk and waffles with peanut butter on them. My pregnancy cravings are in full swing. Last night I woke Mason to go get me Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal. He did, no questions asked or complaining.

“Here baby.”

“Love you.” I air kiss him.

“Be right back.” Jaylinn says and walks out of the room.

I wait a few seconds to make sure she’s out of hearing range. Mason peeks around the corner and then comes and sits next to me. We both look over to Cooper.

“Well?” Mason and I both ask at the same time.

Cooper was supposed to talk to Jaylinn last night about Brittany. We finally got through to him that he needed to talk to her about it. He has to take the chance and clear his conscience if he ever wants to have a serious relationship with her.

He sits back against the couch and folds his hands behind his head. “I haven’t done it yet.”

Mason huffs.

“Cooper,” I whine. “You have to tell Jay.”

“Tell me what?” Jaylinn asks as she walks back into the room.

Cooper holds his breath and looks between Mason and me. “Just do it.” I whisper.

“Come here.” Cooper says to Jaylinn. She comes over and climbs onto Cooper’s lap. “I’ve got something to tell you about Brittany and me.”

Jaylinn looks like a deer caught in headlights. I send a silent prayer. Please don’t let this be the end for them.
