“As soon as Tony gets home then,” Freddie laughed. “There’s no way he’ll be able to focus on anything else.”
“What are we doing when Tony gets home?” Beck asked as he walked into the kitchen.
“Pregnancy tests,” Ian replied.
“Oh, yeah.” Beck chuckled. “He’d be like a kid before Christmas if we made him wait.”
Ian released me and strode over to Beck for a kiss. “Are you done with your work?”
Beck nodded. “Just finished. Everything’s sent off to my new virtual assistant for them to post and do all the email and social media things.”
“So you’ll be able to relax and celebrate with us tonight?” Freddie asked.
Beck grinned. “Yep.”
“Are you sure you want to cook?” Ian asked, eying my prep work. “We can totally order in.”
I laughed. “I was just making those lettuce wraps you like. Most of the work is already done. I can do the rest of the cooking faster than delivery would arrive.”
“Are you sure?” Freddie asked.
I smiled. “I’m sure, but if you’re so worried, you can all surprise me with dinner out another day. Just not on Saturday, I’m shopping with Micah that day.”
“Dinner out, not on Saturday, probably not pizza. Got it,” Ian stated.
“Do you need help with anything?” Freddie asked.
I shook my head. “I was going to put everything back in the fridge for now. It’s all ready except for the cooking part.”
“Ok.”
I covered the bowls of chopped vegetables and set them in the fridge, then wandered into the living room.
Beck was sitting near Pico’s play stand, chatting with the bird. Freddie and Ian were reading the backs of the pregnancy test boxes.
“Do you two want to read the instructions too?” I teased.
“Can we?” Ian asked.
I shrugged. “Sure? I assume it’s piss on the stick and wait however many minutes. But if you want to be positive…”
Ian immediately opened the box in his hands and pulled out the instruction sheet.
Freddie shrugged and followed suit.
I laughed as they scanned the papers, exchanged them, then opened the third box to read those instructions as well.
“So how many minutes am I waiting?” I laughed as they set the instructions aside.
“Five minutes on the blue one,” Ian replied. “Three on both the gray and green.”
“Got it,” I replied.
The sound of the hall door opening and closing. I took a step back to see Tony putting on slippers. Then he shuffled toward me.
“Hey gorgeous,” he mumbled, burying his nose in my neck. “Sorry I wasn’t here when you got home.”
I smiled. “Beck let us know where you were. Long day?”
