Chapter Seven
"What were you thinking?" Justin asked when Brian was back with him.
"I was thinking that you come from a big family and I was an only child. In truth I was a little jealous of it." Brian admitted, quietly not wanting Justin to know the truth but realising that he had better not keep secrets from his soon-to-be husband.
"But Bri, I will willingly share my family with you." Justin said as Brian's admission had shocked Justin.
Brian leaned over and hugged Justin with all the love and devotion he could muster in one single hug. While they were hugging, Scott and John continued to decorate the backyard. Soon people started to arrive, bringing food and presents. Each of the Taylor boys knew something was different with the youngest Taylor boy, but none could put their finger on it. One by one, each of the Taylor siblings walked up to Justin and Brian, who had never left his side to talk to him.
"So, little brother, what's new?" JJ asked, as the oldest he had to protect his brothers. It didn't matter how old they were, he would always protect them.
Justin got on with all his brothers, especially his twin Josh and his oldest brother JJ. It didn't matter that there was 21 years difference between them, they were still close.
"Nothing, JJ." Justin said uneasily as his oldest brother stared at his stomach, he knew that was a small baby bump but it wasn't big even for anyone to tell just by looking.
Before JJ could ask anything more, their father called for everyone's attention throughout the garden.
"Now, I will keep this short as we have a lot of planning to do. As I was saying, there will be a new member to the family, well 2 actually. Our youngest, Justin, is pregnant and getting married." John said to the whole garden instead of waiting to have the hugs and handshakes off everyone in the garden. Justin walked back into the house and into his room, leaving Brian to deal with many questions.
Scott stood next to his husband furiously.
"How dare you!" Scott hissed at John
"What…?" John asked confused.
"I know you were excited about having a new grandson and son-in-law, but you know how Justin is like. He wanted to tell the family and his friends himself." Scott said as he stormed over to Brian, grabbing his arm and pulling him towards the house the same direction that Justin went.
Leaving everyone in the garden stunned at John's revelation and Justin's exit, Michael had to of course say something.
"You know what? I don't think he is pregnant. I think he just said that to make Brian marry him." What surprised the remaining guests the most was who hit Michael to the ground.
"How dare you!" Josh said. "My brother would never lie. He's told me all about you, Michael Novotny, and you being in love with Brian. But Brian being Brian, he hasn't told you that it would never happen. He is in love with my brother and he will love the little boy that my brother is risking his life to carry." Josh said as he continued to rub his hand after hitting Michael.
