*8 months later-November*

"Okay, now I understand why you date Alex." Reese makes a covetous comment as we walk into the private suite assigned to Alex and his family.

I laugh knowing she means no harm and give her a bit of grace since I dragged her out of bed way too early this morning. It was November first, and there was only one thing we could have possibly been doing last night.

Although I did take it a bit easier than she did.

"The food is right over there." I point to the opposite side of the room where there's already a crowd of familiar faces.

"Oh thank God." she huffs out a breath before walking away.

"Evie!" I hear my name shouted from the seats by the glass and turn to see one of the most joyous people I know walk up to me with open arms.

"Rosalie, hey." I wrap her up in an embrace. "How have you been?" I ask even though I was on facetime with her and Alex's sisters a week ago.

The four of us have actually created a really strong bond these last few months, despite all of us rarely ever being in the same place at once. Eden is still in Ohio, Jasmine just started her first semester at Wisconsin, Rosalie is studying at the University of Michigan, and I'm still at Cypress in Massachusetts.

I really couldn't be farther away from them.

Though, the four of us all went out to Montauk over the summer as a treat for Jasmine graduating highschool. I promised Alex that I wouldn't lose either of his sisters, but I still haven't told him that we did in fact lose Jasmine for a solid twenty minutes at one point during the trip.

Let's just say it was a very chaotic night.

But it was a trip I would do all over again if I had the chance.

Neither Eden or Jasmine is here today, so Rosalie and I catch up for a few minutes before I hear gurgling not far from where we're standing.

Oh, I almost forgot to mention, Emery had her babies.

Yep, that's right, babies. Plural.

They were twins, one boy and one girl, just like her and her brother. Rosalie and I walk over to her as she's talking with two of her friends. "Almost four months, Finn. You should know this. You've been asking how old they are since they came out of the womb." she laughs.

"They are adorable Em." Her other friend comments. I think her name is Hannah if I remember correctly.

"You know, if you two are so interested in my kids maybe it's time you start having your own." One of Emery's newborns gurgles as Rosalie plays with them in their carrier.

"Nah, I think we're gonna be the rich godparents for a little while longer." Finn makes the joke while throwing his arm over... "Hannah can tell me when she's ready though." I knew it.

The three of them laugh before Hannah and Finn walk off. "No Elliot or Tyler this weekend?" Rosalie asks.

Emery shakes her head. "Elliot and Kayla are too busy with work, and Tyler has a wedding today." She rests her hand in front of one of the twins who grabs onto her pinky.

"What are their names again?" I ask as I watch the two babies silently rest in front of my eyes, partially giving me baby fever. But I shake that thought off just as quickly as it came to me.
