Chapter 106: Abby

For what seemed like the hundredth time, Abby looked around the crowded house, trying to find Wyatt. He'd been right there, and then...well, she wasn't quite sure what'd happened, actually. Everyone seemed to want to either talk to him or her tonight, and for being on their very first official date, they hadn't spent but ten minutes around each other.

Right then, Stetson clinked his fork against a beer bottle. "I've been informed by my lovely wife that it's time to cut the cake," he said. "As you all know, Jennifer is due in April and has spent the last two weeks taunting me by telling me that she knows whether or not we're having a girl or a boy, but refuses to share the information with me." A small ripple of laughter went through the audience, and Abby grinned too.
