Broken Dreams (Broken #2)(72)

“Mmhmm. I wouldn’t say good…better maybe,” she said with a wink and a crooked smile.

I leaned down, put my lips up to her ear, and let out a hot breath. I saw her whole body shudder, and I instantly felt my dick jump. “Wait until I get you home later. I’m going to swoon the hell out of you in bed.”

She bit down on her lip and placed her hand on her stomach. “I don’t think I’m hungry anymore,” Courtney said as she went to try to get out of line.

I grabbed her arm and pulled her back. “Oh no, Mrs. Moore. My son wants some brisket, and brisket he will get.”

Courtney smiled the biggest smile I’d ever seen on her face. “Son? What makes you think it’s a son?”

“Pesh, it’s my sperm. It’ll be a boy for sure,” I said as I looked at her like she had grown two heads.

Courtney placed her hands on her hips and swung her right hip out. “Well, it’s my egg. Maybe my egg only wanted to fornicate with female sperm.”

I shook my head. “No. The sperm decides the sex, and my sperm is dominated by sexy male cowboy genes.”

Layton and Whitley both turned and looked at us.

“Really? This is the conversation y’all are going to have in the line at Cooper’s?” Whitley said as she used her hand and gestured toward the people standing in line behind us.

I didn’t even bother to look to see how many people were behind us. I shrugged my shoulders and looked at Layton. “Dude, don’t you think you’re having a boy?”

Layton smiled. “Hell yeah, I’m having a boy. My sperm—” He looked at Whitley and quickly said, “I mean, I don’t care. As long as the baby is healthy, I’m happy.”

I just looked at him and shook my head. “Pussy,” I said.

Layton shot me the finger. Whitley hit Layton on the shoulder, and Courtney started laughing.

We sat down to eat, and I’d never seen two women eat so fast and so much in my life.

“Where did the sausage go?” Layton asked.

I pointed to Courtney. “Miss I Am Woman, Hear My Eggs Roar over here ate it all.”

Courtney gave me a look and said, “Ha-ha, Mr. My Sperm Is All Manly-and-Sexy Cowboy Sperm. Keep it up, and your cowboy sperm isn’t going to be having any fun tonight. Oh my God…I can’t believe I forgot to tell you, Whitley! Reed and I had sex in the family restroom at the restaurant where my brother got married. We did it right before the wedding.” Court jumped in her seat and pointed at Whitley. “Ha! We totally have y’all beat for public sex, and let me tell you it was—”

I saw a middle-aged woman stand up and walk over to our table.

She leaned over our table and said, “Excuse me?”

We all looked at her as Courtney smiled and said, “Yes?”

The lady pointed to Whitley and then Courtney. “Are you girls both pregnant?”

They both smiled and said, “Yes,” at the same time.

The lady nodded her head and said, “I see. Well, may God help your children.” She turned, walked back to her table, and sat down.

I glanced between Courtney and Whitley, and both had their mouths hanging open. I peeked over at Layton, and he was laughing uncontrollably.

Courtney turned and looked at me as she whispered, “What in the fuck did she mean by that?”

I started laughing as I shrugged my shoulders. I looked over at the lady as she and her family stood up to leave. She looked back at Courtney and shook her head.

Courtney snapped her head back and looked at Whitley. “Did she just insinuate that we are going to be bad mothers?”

Whitley slowly nodded her head. “I think so, but then again, you and Reed were talking about your eggs and his sperm and fornicating and how you had sex in a family restroom before your brother’s wedding. I’m gonna guess that one pushed her over the edge. No wonder she said something to you.”

“To me? Oh no, no, no! She pointed to both of us, sweetheart. She said you were going to be a bad mother, too. It was not just me.”

“No, I’m pretty sure she was directing it to you, Court,” Whitley said as she sat back and put her hands on her stomach. “I am full.”

Layton was still laughing as Courtney turned and watched the lady walk out of Cooper’s.

Courtney let out a huff and crossed her arms over her chest. “Bitch. I’ll show her. I’m going to be the best mother ever.”

Lying in bed, I felt Reed wrap his arms around me as he began running his hand over my stomach. I was now almost twenty weeks pregnant and had what Reed called the cutest baby bump in the whole world. I smiled as I felt my skin tingle everywhere he touched.

“What time is it?” I asked in a sleepy voice.

Reed covered my back with kisses as he mumbled, “Six.”

I let out a moan and rolled over, looking at my handsome husband, who had the biggest smile on his face. “Reed! Why? You said you were going to sleep in, baby.”

“I did sleep in. Six is sleeping in on Christmas, Court.”

I rolled my eyes and looked up. “Lord, please let our children take after me and sleep in on Christmas morning and not wake me up at four, and then five, and now six.”

He laughed and placed his hand on my stomach again.

“What did you just do?” I asked.

He looked at me and said, “What do you mean?”

I made a funny face and shook my head. “Never mind. I thought I felt something, but it must be gas or something moving through my stomach.”

Reed leaned over and took one of my nipples in his mouth. He sucked on it as he moved his hand down between my legs.

Oh, yes. This is how I wish to be woken up every Christmas morning.

Reed slipped his fingers inside me, and I bucked my hips frantically into him. I needed more. He slowly sucked on my nipple as he moved his fingers in and out.

Nothing. Ugh.

I thrashed my head back and forth and said, “Wait! Stop.”

Reed stopped and pulled his fingers out as he looked at me, confused.

“Cleopatra?” I said with a shy smile.

Reed’s face lit up, and I’d never seen him move so fast in my life. He ran into our bathroom, opened up the cabinet, and then came running back with one of my vibrators.

He held it up and wiggled his eyebrows. “Is this what my angel wants for her first Christmas present?”

I nodded my head and put my finger in my mouth. Reed spread my legs open wider and began inserting the vibrator, slowly at first, and then he began working it in and out faster. I let out a moan as he reached up with his other hand and pinched my nipple while he turned the vibrator on.
