Chapter 2.43

“You look beautiful.” Beau smiled. “I mean, you look like me, so it shouldn’t be that difficult, but you look beautiful.”

“I guess.” Beau chuckled. “But why are you taking Siena with you?”

I looked down at Siena, who leaned her tiny head against my shoulder. “Because I can’t live without her, and so it won’t be awkward between us.”

“You’ll understand in a few months, being without your baby is difficult.”

I knew bringing a baby to a date wasn’t that ideal, but Siena being around us meant we would actually have something to talk about. Christian decided to organize the date his house, which made it even more awkward than it had to be.

“It warms my heart to see the two of you.” Lita smiled as she walked into the hallway. “The two of you are so close. It’s like the two of you have known each other for years.”
