I curse under my breath, and everyone at the table glares at me. “Uh, sorry, just … my brother.” They all shrug and continue their conversation, and JD sends another text in a private thread.

JD

Are you for real?

Don’t play with me like this, man. My little heart can’t take it. *smiling face holding back tears emoji*

Blake

Yes, I want to marry Loren. I don’t know if I’ve ever been more sure of anything.

It’s just the part about Loren feeling the same way that’s still up in the air.

JD

I thought you said she’d finally cracked?

Blake

You may not be aware of this, but there is a pretty wide canyon btw “ily” and “I do.”

JD

You can fill it with all your baby crap.

Ask. Her.

I smile again and pull up another thread with Jada.

Blake

Lo’s checkup went well. She and the twins are all good.

We also got the keys to the new whip and are enjoying lunch with her mom as we speak.

Jada C

All great news! *smiling face emoji*

Thanks for the updates. ADA Moreau called for you this morning, by the way.

Blake

Thanks, I’ll swing by the office and give him a call when I get back. I also need your help with a very important task.

Jada C

Whatcha got?
