“The couch?” he suggested.
“Cuddle puddle while we wait, got it.”
I offered Ollie a hand up, which he accepted. Then he pushed up his glasses, grabbed the box with the test, and strode out of the room.
I smiled, then walked out and to the kitchen. I grabbed Tripp around the middle and tugged him to the couch.
“I take it Ollie’s pissing on a stick?” Tripp laughed as he sat.
“Yep,” I replied as I dropped onto a cushion.
Tripp leaned against me. “I have a good feeling.”
“Me too, but he’s nervous.”
“We’re here, no matter what.”
I smiled. “Yeah. I’m not giving either of you up.”
Tripp chuckled, then the sound of footsteps in the hall. We both turned to see Ollie coming toward us, test in hand.
“I’ll set the timer,” I announced, grabbing my phone.
“Thank you,” Ollie replied.
Tripp scooted over, making room for our omega between us. He patted the empty space. “Come here, Baby.”
Ollie shuffled over and eased onto the couch.
Tripp leaned in and kissed Ollie’s temple. “So, have you decided which room is going to be the nursery?”
Ollie let out a nervous laugh. “Not-not exactly.”
Tripp chuckled. “There’s time, but keep it in mind, that way Axel and I have time to decorate it.”
“But I’m the artist,” Ollie protested.
“Decorative paint only,” I stated. “You tell us what base colors to paint, then you can add your touches. That way you’re not in as many fumes.”
Ollie considered, then nodded. “Compromise accepted.”
“What are you thinking for the theme?” Tripp asked. “Cute jungle? Dinosaurs?”
Ollie hummed. “I think that’ll depend on what we’re having.”
I reached over and ran my hand across his stomach. “And how many.”
Ollie blanched. “I hope only one!” He paused. “I mean, I want you each to have fathered a baby, but one at a time. I don’t think I can handle twins.”
I slid my hand down and squeezed his thigh. “One at a time it is, assuming your body agrees.”
Ollie turned and gave me a dirty look, then the alarm sounded.
I turned it off while our omega reached for the test. He kept it face down and took a deep breath.
“We’re here,” Tripp said softly. “Go ahead.”
Ollie nodded and turned the test over.
