Page 72 of Rage’s Rose

“No, baby, I haven’t. Last I heard she was in surgery. Riot promised he’d update us when he hears something. He’s a fucking wreck.”

“Are Abby and Sutton here?”

“They are in the waiting room with everybody else. Last I saw them they were snuggled up to Wrecker and Mule.”

My brow must tighten in confusion because Rage lets out a chuckle.

“I think those are the brothers your girls have been seeing. I don’t know all the details, I’m sure you do though.”

“No, I don't, they haven’t told me anything. I am just surprised they are not here.”

“I think they didn’t want to come in here til they got news about Brynley and you aren’t going anywhere right now. You’re going to stay in that bed and try not to worry too much. Brynley is strong and she’ll be okay.”

Before I can reply the door bursts open and Reid startles a little before Rage calmly pats his butt and calms him down making shushing noises.

“Oh thank fuck! You have no idea what I would've done if anything happened to you. Do not ever do that again, bitch or I will hunt you down myself.” Liza says as she comes flying in the room. She rushes over to my bed and brings me in for a hug and I hiss out in pain.

“Liza, watch it, she’s hurt. That asshole, beat her. Fuck.” Rage scolds her.

“Shit. Sorry. I was just so fucking worried you know.” As she starts talking tears start to run down her face and I see Dragon in the doorway groan.

“Baby, don’t cry. Fuck. I swear this one is a girl. I’m letting Twister know now to start the bets.”

“Oh, shut up. He’s going to need to worry about his own woman.” She immediately claps her mouth closed and I watch with humor as her eyes widen when she realizes the bomb she just dropped. “Shit.”

“Woah- hold up! You did not just tell me my brother is having a baby! How the hell do you know before me? That is some fucking twin privilege bullshit. He was the first to know about you both mother fucking times. I’m going to chew his fucking ass out!”

I know I shouldn’t laugh, this day has been a fucking mess, but really how can you not. Liza immediately jumps up and runs over towards Dragon.

“Don’t you dare! Let him tell you in his own time! I only know because Isabella told me. She was working out a way to tell Domino and Twister. So please, don’t ruin this for them. I swear my hormones and pregnancy brain are so much worse this time around.”

“Well, maybe crazy has a point and it is going to be a girl this time. OH! A little Liza that will be so much fun!” I laugh when Dragon looks up at me with horror in his eyes.

“I need to buy more guns.”

Rage busts out laughing when he looks at the look on his brother’s face and laughs harder when Liza slaps him in the stomach.

“What is that supposed to mean?” Liza asks.

“Well baby,” Dragon says as he puts his hand down cupping her barely there bump, “it means if this is a girl and she is a little you, I’m going to have to scare the boys away with guns. No man is touching my daughter.” He says with a smile before placing a kiss on her lips.

“Oh, there you are.” I hear and watch as Peyton comes into the room. “I’m a little annoyed you left me and didn’t tell me we were coming up to see Rose. I mean, hello, I deserve to see her too. Plus, now that Parker is back at school I don’t have anyone to talk shit to. I’m not as familiar with Rose’s girls as you are.” She then turns and looks at me, “So that means your ass needs to be inviting me over to your house more often. I’m going to need loads more girl time.”

“Well pardon me, I thought you were all busy with your job at the hospital and you know, medical school.” I shoot back at her.

“Honey, I multitask or have we forgotten. I can do loads of things at once.” Peyton says with a smirk on her face.

“Ew. That’s nasty. I’m standing right here. I am your big brother, I do not need to hear about how you can do multiple things at once.” Dragon says while he is trying not to gag.

“I’m sorry, you knocked up one of my best friends, you are just going to have to deal with it.” Peyton shoots back at him and Liza turns into Dragon and I watch as her shoulders shake from laughing.

I feel a hand come over mine and I look down at it and see that Rage has reached over and grabbed my hand. I let him intertwine our fingers together and look up at him. He smiles at me before turning back to the chaos that is in my room.

“Speaking of my brother, where is he at?” Rage asks.

Before anyone else can answer a voice comes from outside the room.

“Oh, I’m right here. I didn’t want to intrude.”
