The Future of Love (Bachelor Billionaire #6)

  “You didn't tell us,” Gavin said with an offended tone.

  “We wanted it to be a surprise,” Ethan said. “That's why poor Kyle's had so much to deal with. I've had to be home to take care of the kids. Julie hasn't been able to do much the last few weeks.”

  Becky hurried over to hug Julie. Everyone else was still standing in shock.

  Once everyone had congratulated them, Jenny waited in the waiting room with Kyle for what seemed like forever. She'd known people that had babies, but she'd never actually seen just how long labor was.

  “Do you want to go home? My dad can call us,” he said.

  “No,” she answered. “I just never realized the length of it all.”

  Kyle laughed and pulled her against him.

  “Don't tell me you're having second thoughts,” he said, as he kissed her forehead. “It's a little late for that. I'm going to be there every step of the way. I won't miss one moment until our little one is here. Then I'll be right there doing everything with you. I love you both.”

  Jenny held him tight and looked into his eyes.

  “We've got a long way to go,” she said, as she leaned forward to kiss him. “I can't wait to spend every single moment of this amazing journey with you by my side, babe. You're the most amazing man in the world.”

  John walked into the room and looked over at them.

  “You two better settle down, or you're going to be sitting where they are,” he joked.

  Jenny looked and Kyle and they both burst into laughter. Kyle wanted to tell his mom so badly, but Jenny made him promise to wait until their wedding. It was only two months away, and by then they would be sure that everything was okay. Jenny had just taken the test the day before and hadn't even been to see a doctor yet.

  “Very funny,” she joked back.

  “They are kicking us all out. It shouldn't be too much longer,” John said.

  That was when everyone else walked into the room with them.

  Jenny had her head on Kyle's shoulder and let her eyes close. It seemed like moments later when Ethan came bursting into the room.

  “They're here. I'm so damn happy. They are both healthy, and Julie is doing amazing. This is it. I don't think I could take another birth. I was so scared.”

  Gavin ran over and wrapped his arms around Ethan's neck.

  “That's the best thing I've heard all day,” he said. “You better tie that shit up.”

  “Do you want to come and meet them?” Ethan asked.

  “Of course we do,” Gavin said.

  The nurses gave a few glares on their way by.

  “They won't stay long,” Ethan said with a smile. “I promise.”

  They walked quietly into the room to see Julie with both arms full. Becky let out a yelp and hurried over to grab one of the babies. John was right behind her on the other side.

  “We have two more healthy, beautiful daughters,” Ethan said with a smile.

  Jenny couldn't stop her emotions from rising to the surface as she thought about what it would be like to have a baby so beautiful with Kyle. She wiped her eyes as soon as Julie looked up at her.

  “They are just so beautiful,” Jenny said.

  Julie didn't take her eyes away from Jenny's. If there was one thing Jenny had learned about Julie, it was that she didn't give up if she was trying to figure something out. With the look in Julie's eyes, Jenny knew she'd had to avoid her until the wedding or she'd end up spilling the beans.

  Chapter 37

  Kyle

  The two months leading to the wedding flew by. Jenny had been to the doctor and everything was going great. Kyle had been working his ass off at work. Everything was caught up so he could be off for a week. That wasn't easy considering Ethan was of no help. He was at home taking care of his wife and six kids. Two of which were newborns. Jenny and Sandy had taken care of the wedding details. It wasn't nearly as bad since they were getting married in Hawaii on the beach. Jenny and Kyle were both happy to have their reception right there at the same spot. Between all of the guys, they owned a huge stretch of beach, so there was going to be plenty of room to dance, eat, and play.

  Kyle had chartered a plane since there were so many of them including the kids. The flight was a little loud, but it was amazing. He was going to be marrying the love of his life in just a couple of days. She was staying with Gavin and Becky while he was staying with John and Sandy. The one thing he had told Jenny was that he had taken care of the wedding night arrangements as well as the rest of their stay. She had enough on her plate and didn't ask what his plan was. He was so excited and hoping that he hadn't made a huge mistake.

  It took all he had to stay away from her until their wedding. He made sure to text her several times through the rest of the night they arrived and the next day to make sure she was okay and to let her know he missed her being in his arms at night. He spent the entire morning of their wedding day inside. She'd instructed him that he wasn't allowed to even look out the window while she worked to help set everything up. He was dressed and ready to go as soon as he was permitted to leave. Kyle was wearing a pair of khaki pants with a white short sleeve, button up shirt. He was barefoot and had rolled his pants up just a little. His dark hair was short with a little length styled on top.

  John walked into his room with a smile on his face.

  “The ladies said you could go out and take your place,” John said.

  Kyle laughed as he stood from his bed.

  “Don't laugh, son,” John said. “Your mom and Jenny were having the time of their lives out there. I even took some pictures so you could see them later. I'm so happy you've found someone that you love and loves you back the way the two of you do. I know you had to wait for the time to be right, but you two are meant to be.”

  “I know,” Kyle said. “I hope she's happy. I love her so damn much.”

  “I know you do,” John said. “I've never seen her this happy. Come on. I'm supposed to show you where to stand.”

  They walked out the door and down the beach. Kyle thought they would be standing right outside of John and Sandy's. Then he saw the spot and almost lost it. Kyle wasn't one to cry often, but knowing why she placed him where she did had him ready to break. It was the exact spot of their first kiss. He knew he'd not done anything to deserve the amazing woman that was giving him her heart, but he knew that he would do anything and everything to protect her and show her just how lucky he was.

  Kyle stood in his spot and looked out at everyone surrounding them. So much had changed since he'd moved closer to his mom. He loved his life and wouldn't give it up for anything. All of the guys were there with all of their wives and kids. They really were an amazing group of people. Kyle had never felt so loved in all his life. He had the biggest and best family there was. Josh was cooking and came out just in time to join his family. Julie looked so happy sitting with one baby carrier on each side of her. Ethan sat next to her with their other four kids. Kyle thought for sure they would have hired someone to help them, but Ethan said they were their children and would be raised by their own parents. He did finally agree that they had enough kids and needed to be done adding on. As Kyle looked around again, he knew he'd found a love just like they all had. He knew his life was perfect. Becky walked out first and stood on the other side where Jenny would end up. She looked over at Kyle and smiled. Then he looked over and saw her. She looked beautiful.

  Jenny walked out with her arm in Gavin's. He was the one she'd wanted to give her away. It was perfect since Gavin was the one that was doing his best to protect her. Jenny had on a white dress that flowed from her body. She had her hair down around her shoulders and light makeup on. He laughed when he noticed she wasn't wearing anything on her feet either. She had tears in her eyes before she even made it to him. Gavin gave him her hand and stepped over beside him. Then they turned and professed their love to each other in front of all of their huge, loving family. Jenny couldn't get her vows out without crying and ended up in his arms.
As soon as they were pronounced husband and wife, Kyle kissed her with such passion all of the guys were whistling.

  They had music playing in one spot, an area of beach with toys for the younger kids, seats for the older kids, and tables and chairs for everyone to eat at. Josh worked hard with Lisa on the main dishes. Each of the other women made a couple of sides to go with them. Everyone moved to get the kids their plates before getting their own. As crazy as it all seemed, it went very smoothly.

  As soon as they were done eating, Gavin stood to propose a toast.

  “I have to say that I have never seen Jenny as happy as she has been since she started dating Kyle. I am so happy that she has found someone who treats her like the amazing woman she is. I have to admit, I'd given him a ton of shit and threatened him to stay away from her. I was wrong. He is a great guy, even if he does work with the competition. Actually, he is the competition. I wish the two of you the best and a houseful of kids like Julie and Ethan. You may be married to the competition, but you need to keep my secrets to yourself. You are both family to me and all of us. I love you guys.”

  Jenny and Kyle stood, and he wrapped his arms around her from behind as she wiped her eyes. She looked back over her shoulder at him and he smiled and nodded.

  “About that,” she said, as she looked over at Gavin. “You've been the best boss in the world. You gave me a chance and have turned into one of the most important people in my life. I am so happy to be able to call you and Becky my family. You are the reason I am with the most amazing man in the world. I owe you everything for that. You've helped me when I needed it most and when I had nobody else. I don't where I would be without the two of you.”

  She stopped for a moment, and Kyle squeezed her a little tighter.

  “Jenny,” Gavin said.

  “This is really hard for me,” she said with tears on her cheeks.

  “What is it?” Gavin asked.

  “Actually, you need to find a new assistant,” she said.

  “Oh no,” Gavin said. “You're not working for him. He doesn't want an assistant.”

  “I'm going to stay home, make my own game, and take care of our baby,” she said.

  “I knew it,” Julie yelled, as she jumped into the air. “I so knew it. You better watch out. Maybe it's that company. If you don't watch yourself, you're going to be sitting here like this.”

  Julie had a carrier on each side of her, twin boys across from her, their older son next to Ethan, and their little girl on his lap. Everyone burst into laughter.

  John was up and around the table before Sandy had the chance to even get up. He wrapped his arms around Jenny.

  “Not only did I just get another daughter,” he said. “I get to be a grandpa again. You're not going to be able to get rid of me. I'm going to checking on you every minute.”

  “He's right,” Kelly said. “I'm glad he has someone else to look after now too.”

  Everyone was coming over to congratulate them. After everyone was finished, Kyle watched Becky wrap her arms around Jenny and hug her as tears came to her eyes as well. He was right next to them. When Becky got right next to Jenny's ear, he heard her whisper.

  “I'm pregnant too, but don't say anything.”

  Then he heard Jenny gasp.

  “How far along?” Becky asked.

  “Three months,” Jenny answered.

  “Me too,” Becky whispered.

  Kyle leaned down close to them both and whispered.

  “I see we weren't the only ones doing it when we got engaged and Jenny moved out.”

  Becky and Jenny both looked up at him with their eyes wide before the three of them burst into laughter.

  Everyone had cake and ice cream. Then all the kids changed and were either playing with the toys on the beach or sitting in chairs with their electronics. All of the adults were standing together watching the kids. Ethan and Julie each had one of the baby girls in their arms. There were eighteen kids total and two more on the way.

  “Can you imagine what our group is going to be like when they are all teenagers?” Heath asked.

  “I'm not cooking then,” Josh said with a laugh. “No way.”

  Then they all sat around while the kids played.

  “Where are you two going tonight?” Becky asked. “I know you're not spending your wedding night in our house or your parents' house.”

  “I don't even know,” Jenny said. “Kyle said he was taking care of that. I was so busy and nervous that I never even asked him.”

  Kyle stood up and looked down at Jenny. He took a deep breath. Then he pulled her to her feet. He turned them so they were looking down the beach a few houses. Then he pointed.

  “Do you see that house?” he asked.

  “Kelly's?” she asked. “Yes, why?”

  “The one on the right of that,” he said.

  “Yes,” she said. “Did you rent it for the week? That's awesome. I love that house. I talked to Becky about it when we were here before. Something about it is so beautiful. I even joked that whoever bought it was only going to have one house to divide them from all of you. All of us. Then you bought the divider house for Kelly.”

  “I didn't rent it,” Kyle said.

  “Oh,” Jenny said with a sad look.

  Then he pulled out a key and handed it to her. She looked up at him with a confused look.

  “I bought it,” he said.

  “No,” she said.

  “Yes,” he said.

  She stood looking at him in shock.

  “Say something,” he said. “Please tell me I didn't screw this up.”

  “You bought that house?” she asked. “I love that house.”

  “I did,” he said. “There isn't a lot of furniture in it. I wanted to do that together. I did get furniture for the bedroom though.”

  “That's my nephew,” Ethan yelled from the side.

  “When did you buy it?” she asked.

  He looked down at her and pulled her into his arms.

  “Kyle,” she whispered.

  “Honestly,” he said.

  “Of course,” she said.

  “I heard you tell Becky how much you liked it the day after I kissed you on the beach.”

  “You heard me?” she asked.

  “I did,” he answered. “As soon as I got home, I called the realtor and bought both of the houses.”

  “You bought that house before we even started talking?” she asked.

  He nodded.

  “How? Why?” she started.

  “I told you,” he said. “I knew you belonged with me the moment I first saw you. You loved that house. Your whole face lit up when you talked about it. I couldn't stop thinking about you. When I got home, I bought the house.”

  She wrapped her arms around his neck and covered his lips with hers.

  “I am the luckiest girl in the world,” she said.

  “No, I'm the lucky one,” he said, as she scooped her into his arms and headed down the beach toward their new home.

  Kyle

  Six Months Later

  Kyle and Jenny were sitting on the couch watching television. She had her feet up on his lap so he could rub them. Jenny felt like she was ready to pop, but Kyle thought she looked beautiful and knew for sure that he'd want her pregnant again one day. He jumped when his phone rang and hurried to pick it up.

  “Hey, Gavin,” he said.

  “We're at the hospital. Becky's in labor. She asked me to call you to see if you'd bring Jenny,” Gavin said.

  “Or course,” Kyle answered. “We'll be on our way in a few minutes.”

  Kyle hung up the phone and looked over at Jenny.

  “Becky's having the baby and wants you there,” he said.

  “Help me up,” she said. “We need to hurry.”

  Kyle grabbed her hand and helped her up from the couch with a laugh.

  “It's not funny, mister,” she said. “Just wait. I'll be kicking your ass in no time.”

/>   “Have to catch me first, baby,” he joked. “Now waddle that sweet ass over here.”

  Jenny laughed as she flung her arms around his neck and laughed.

  “You're so beautiful,” he said. “I love you so much.”

  “I love you too, babe. Now get me to my friend.”

  They got to the hospital and made their way up to labor and delivery. Kyle burst into laughter when one of the nurses assumed Jenny was in labor.

  “I'm just here to see my friend. She's having a baby,” Jenny said.

  “Maybe you'll be next to her,” the nurse said.

  Jenny recognized the nurse from when they were there with Ethan. The woman laughed when Jenny told her Becky's name.

  “You're one of that group. You just keep us working,” the nurse said with a smile. “The room right next to hers is still available if you need it.”

  “Very funny,” Jenny said. “It's not happening for me just yet. I still have a couple of weeks. I'm not in any rush.”

  “Is this your first?” the woman asked.

  “Sure is,” Jenny said.

  They made their way down the hall to Becky's room and opened the door to hear her whimpering out. Jenny looked back at Kyle. The two women had gotten even closer once they found out they were both due around the same time. It made Kyle feel good that Jenny had another woman to answer her pregnancy questions when she was worried about things.

  “Are you sure you want to go in there?” Kyle asked.

  “I don't know,” Jenny joked. “I'm not sure I want to see the real live thing until I'm doing it.”

  “Get your ass in here,” Becky yelled out.

  Kyle walked with his hand on Jenny's back and stopped when he felt her body tense.

  “What's wrong with you?” Becky asked.

  “Nothing,” Jenny said. “I think I have indigestion. It's been going on since yesterday. My backs been hurting all day. You got my ass off the couch for this.”

  Jenny walked over and sat down in the chair Gavin got up from when they walked in.

  “I can't believe you don't want to know what you were having,” Becky said. “I can't wait to meet my little guy.”
