They walked hand-in-hand to where the rest of the Justice crew were saying good-byes and making plans. In short order, they accepted an invitation to a barbecue at Brody and Heather’s and promised Angie they’d come by soon and check out the last finishing touches on the house Parker built them.
Out in the parking lot, Alex casually looked from one couple to another as they went to their vehicles. He said a silent prayer of thanks to the God he was trying to make nice with for bringing this extraordinary group of people together.
They defined what family was about. What being a family stood for. Theirs was a fellowship of individuals who came together through uncommon bonds and created something special. Unique.
He’d lay down his life for every single one of them and knew those feelings were returned.
“Are you okay, baby?” Meghan asked softly with her hand stroking between his shoulders.
“We’re so lucky,” he told her.
She looked around at everyone too and then smiled.
“Family,” she told him with a quick kiss on the lips.
“Come on,” he drawled as he opened her car door and helped her in. “We have a date with a white stick.”
She gasped happily and searched his face. “Tonight?” she asked hopefully.
“Yeah, why not?” He laughed. “You drank enough lemon cooler to pee out a roaring fire. Might as well put it to good use.”
Her laughter rang out as he closed the door and rounded the car to the driver’s side.
A new chapter for Family Justice was being written, and he was honestly excited as fuck. The very idea of adding a page or two of their own with baby names and birthdates was a dream come true for Alex.
When he was seated and belted in, he started the car and put his hand on the gear shift. Right away, his goddess wife grabbed his wrist and squealed, “Oh, my god! Hurry! I have to pee!”
They laughed the whole way home.
THE END … for now

You deserve an award for this one!
Suzanne Halliday
writes what she knows and what she loves – sexy contemporary romance featuring strong men and spirited women. Her love of creating short stories for friends and family developed into a passion for writing romantic fiction with a sensual edge. She finds the world of digital, self-publishing to be the perfect platform for sharing her stories and also for what she enjoys most of all – reading. When she’s not on a deadline you’ll find her loading up on books to devour.
No longer wandering because the desert southwest finally claimed her, these days instead of digging out from a snowstorm you can still find Suzanne with 80’s hair band music playing in the background, kids running in and out, laptop on with way too many screens open, something awesome in the oven, and a mug of hot tea clutched in one hand.
