Knox Briggs
A boy.
We're having a boy.
A baby fucking boy.
We went to Xan's 14 week appointment, and we found out the gender. Xan didn't want to be surprised. He wanted to be the first person to know, and sense it's in his body, and i don't really care either way, i was on board.
It's gonna be a surprise for the family, we're holding a gender reveal party still, but we know and no one else does.
Xan is smiling so wide, his dimples are out and proud. He covers his smile, and looks at me. I'm in awe of his reaction, and so fucking in love with this man.
"I'm so excited." he giggles, and it's the cutest thing i've ever heard.
"Me too angel" I nod, pulling him into my body. Into my lap. He straddles me, running his fingers through my hair.
"We need a name now"
"Luka" I offer, and Xan shakes his head. "Alex?"
"Uh, no. That's basically my name"
"You go by Xan, baby" I correct, and he still shakes his head.
"Erik?"
"No" I shake my head. "Remi?" This makes Xan stop, and think. Then he smiles.
"Remi Williams"
"Why williams?"
"We all go by that. Even Bran's kids."
"Oh, okay" I shrug, and wrap my arms loosely around his waist.
"Do you care?" he asks, his brows creasing.
"No, I wasn't set on it being Briggs. Williams is fine. I'd probably like to change my last name to that though. So we can all share the same last name"
"I like that idea" he nods, and kisses me. "Knox Williams. The father of Remi Williams. Xan Williams mate" he gives me a cheeky smile.
"You're silly," I murmured, before attacking his face with my lips. He squeals, and then takes off running.
And of course, I chased him.

We're finishing set-up at Zeke and Peyton's house. We're having our gender reveal/baby shower thing. They do it pretty early I guess. I'm not too sure. Xan is helping his dad set out snacks, and I'm helping Branson with decorations.
It feels a little excessive to me, but if it makes my angel happy I'm all for it. We're about done now, and people should be here.
It's the usual here now. Branson, Noah, Layla, Callie, Peyton, Zeke. Oh and the twins are running around. Or crawling. Not sure. Well that's a lie, Ethan is attached to Xan's hip. He's holding him, as he makes everything perfect.
Willow is crawling up Branson's legs, and he scoops her up. "You excited for your own?" he asks, resting his daughter on his hip.
"Yeah" I nod, slipping my hands into my pocket. "Really excited to have one. I know Xan is too"
"He's gonna be an amazing father. He's so caring and has that instinct already" Branson shushes willow when she starts to whine, and she lays her head against his shoulder.
"He does" I agree, because seeing him with the twins, and my sister's kids proves it.
Speaking of, my sister should be here soon too. And her mate. Then Noah's family is coming, and some other wolves from the pack that they're kind of close with. Xan and I don't really have anyone besides the people around now. Xan didn't have any friends, and all mine are in a different pack.
