I laugh through my tears. “Deal.” I show her, and she gasps because the thing is huge.

Pierre is watching us. He takes a long breath. “Are you happy?” he asks me.

“Yes.” The tears fall again because after everything today, he asks that.

“I hate this.” He sighs.

“Be nice,” Issy warns.

“I guess that’s all that matters then if you’re happy.” He looks around the room. “Is there anyone else screwing anyone on the team we should know about?”

“Pierre.” My mom gasps.

“God, I hope not,” Felix mutters.

Pierre points at Justin. “If you hurt her, I’ll end you.”

“Understood.”

“Welcome to the family, asshole.” He glares at Justin.

Justin grins, that crooked grin. “Thanks, bro.”

“Don’t call me bro.”

“But we are bros in law,” Justin argues.

“Fuck,” Pierre curses.

“And I’m sure Cap will be a bro in law too.” Justin beams.

“Working on it.” Emmett smiles.

Pierre pinches his nose as if Justin is giving him a headache. He looks at Emmett on the couch with a black eye and then looks at Justin.

“Are you telling me I have to put up with these idiots for the rest of my life?” Pierre asks.

“Yes, it looks like you will,” Issy tells him.

He shakes his head. “Collette’s a lost cause, she’s married, but Jo’s not. Are you sure this is who you want to be with?”

Jo flips him off, which makes him laugh.

“At the start of every new year I’m going to have PTSD from this day,” Felix grumbles.

“Suck it up, princess.” Harper laughs.

“I’m just happy that all my children are happy, that is all I care about,” Mom says.

“Does the team know?” Felix asks Justin.

“They don’t know anything.”

“Oh, you’re so fucked.” He grins as he pulls out his phone and madly types away.

“You wouldn’t?” Justin asks him.

“Already done.”
