"Why the hell not, Chris? You love kids," Joshua reotten

"I love you guys and I’ll no doubt adore and spoil whatever little demons you have, but I don’t want any kids ofhis brother his back as he loaded up, pulling a Kevlar vest of his head and trying not to wince when it brushed against his sore ribs

He didn’t have to ask to know that he was a lucky son of a bitch He reht or rather thisThere was no question in his mind that he should be dead

"What about her?" Joshua de to look over his shoulder

"Does she want this baby? She’ll never forgive you if you push her into getting rid of a baby she wants,"

"Yes," he said with absolutely no hesitation whatsoever

"But-"

"There are no buts, Joshua We have no future together," he said fir who and what he was for the first ti to make a choice between Izzy and his fa hated knowing that he had to send his ht, knowing that she was okay
