Wrapping Up (Mitchell Family #4.5)(7)
Author: Jennifer Foor

My uncle was leaning against a tree as we approached him. He gave us a nod and started walking in our direction. “I’m all set out here. Where’s the lovebirds? You seen them yet?”

“We saved them for last. Figured you might want to catch a ride with us instead.” I didn’t have to say out loud what I thought Ty and Miranda were doing. They had twins at home, it would only be natural for them to savor every second they had alone.

He laughed and jumped right on the back. “Sounds like a better idea than seeing my son with his pants around his ankles.”

We skipped going in the direction of Ty and Miranda’s spots and headed back. I expected them to take a while, but after we texted them that we were all together, they came out of the woods about five minutes after us. Conner finally showed up an hour later and seemed to be in rare form. He was uneasy and was trying to avoid me at all costs.

We all grabbed a plate of hot food and warmed our stomachs with some homemade turkey soup. I didn’t know about my wife, but I loved having my family together in my house. I’d built it for this very reason and seeing my own children filling it, just made me light up inside.

I know she did it to make it easier on us, but my mother and Ty’s parents went up to the main house and Karen and John went back to her place. Savanna’s parents went on a walk together, while Conner, Ty, Miranda and the kids sat around with us. It was crazy how much those boys looked like their father. What made it more crazy was how Ty had ran his mouth about having super sperm. It turned out, he did. Us Mitchell boys produced some fine looking children, if I do say so myself.

As we sat there relaxing, I knew it was only a matter of time before my cousin started up with his bantering. I was thankful he waited until the girls went into the kitchen. “So, how does it feel to have knocked up your wife again. Two kids in diapers sucks donkey dick.”

I let out a cackle and noticed Conner trying to avoid contact with me. “Unlike you, I don’t worry about the diaper part. In fact, if my wife wants eleven kids, she can have them.”

I should have kept my mouth shut, but of course, I had forgotten for a brief moment, who I was talking to. “Eleven kids? Do you have any idea how saggy her tits will be? Oh my God, Dude, they will be flat pancakes and sag to her knees. She won’t even have to wear underwear, cause they will cover up her….”

I held up my hands, silently pleading for him to stop. “Seriously? Don’t go there. My wife will kick my ass if I have to kick your ass before dinner tomorrow.”

“No need to kick anyone’s ass, not that you could, but I’m just stating the truth.” He cocked his eyebrow and chuckled. When one of his boys started to cry, Ty got right up and met his wife halfway there. I turned around to watch them fighting over who was going to take their son, who according to the colored shirt, was Jax.

Ty won the battle and carried his son to sit back down. He immediately started changing his diaper while Miranda brought him all the necessary things. Once he was done, she sat beside him and covered herself up so that she could feed him. My simple minded cousin ducked his head under the blanket to take a peek at his wife’s br**sts.

I heard Conner groan from across the room and started laughing. “How do you live with them?”

He put up his hands and just shook his head. “I ask myself that same question every single day.”

“So who’s this girl you’re talking to?” I had no idea that my question would get the response that it did. The room fell so silent and I knew, without a doubt, that I’d caused an uproar.

Conner looked at Ty, while Miranda looked at her brother. “What girl, Conner? It better not be who I think it is.” Miranda scrunched up her face and if she wasn’t feeding her child, might have just attacked her brother.

“What are you talkin’ about? I’m not seein’ anyone. Colt is mistaken. I was talkin’ on the phone to an old friend, that’s all.” Conner pulled off his camouflage hat and ran his hands through his hair.

Miranda held out her hand. “Gimme your phone.”

“No!”

“Conner, I’m not goin’ to ask again. If you make me put this baby down, there will be hell to pay.” It was so funny how little Miranda could scare her brother. As he continued to refuse, she became more disgruntled over it. “If you can’t show me your phone then I already know the answer. Why do you have to keep pursuing this? She doesn’t want you and she’s married. Leave it alone!”

Ty started laughing and I looked at all of them before turning all of my attention to Conner. “Married? Now what would you want to get involved with a married woman for? Are you askin’ to have your ass beat?”

“It ain’t like that, Cuz. My sister has a vivid imagination, that’s all.”

Miranda pointed at her brother. “You know that’s not the truth. If I find out you are sleepin’ with her, I will kick your ass and ship you back here.”

Ty wrapped his arm around Miranda. “Baby, calm down. Your brother is a grown man. If he wants to bang married women and be hunted down by their pissed off husbands, well that’s his problem, not ours.”

“You better shut up and start takin’ my side.” Conner and I let out a laugh while Ty avoided looking at us.

“Randa, seriously just drop it. There ain’t nothin’ for you to even worry about.”

Miranda handed Jax to Ty and got herself situated before standing up and getting in her brother’s face. “You have no idea what her husband is capable of. It ain’t about the married thing as much as it’s about both of your safety. There are so many other available women out there. Just let it go. Please.”

Conner began to laugh and shake his head. “I’m not goin’ to explain myself, Randa. Amy and I are friends. I know she’s married and I know exactly what the situation is like, so don’t go threatening me over it.”

Ty stood up with Jax in his arms and got in the middle of them. “How about we talk about something else? I mean, before you all started this shit, we were talking about saggy tits. I’d much rather talk about them than this.”

I stood up and walked into the kitchen with nothing left to say.

Chapter 5

Savanna

I woke up Thanksgiving morning to a quiet house and cuddled up next to my sexy husband. We didn’t get many moments where we were alone, so I decided to take advantage of it. My parents were sleeping in the room next to Christians, so I knew if she woke up that one of them would get her and be fine with not having to wake up me and Colt. Noah had went with his cousin to spend the night at the main house. Lucy would surely make them something to eat at the crack of dawn, since they couldn’t wait for anyone else.
