That earned him a glare.Stop it.

So what do we do?Cullen hated that Elliot was so unhappy. He also didn’t love that his baby boy was on top of the bookshelf, now sound asleep.

Honestly, I don’t know. We’ve asked Elliot to do a lot here. We’ve gone from Elliot is an only child to Elliot as big brother and cousin. Add to it his favorite uncle is having a baby, and Corbin is all tied up with, you know…him.

What? They weren’t even saying his name now?You mean Evander?

Yes, that’s who I mean.Cosmo shot him a glare.

Seems like you’re a little jealous too.

Cosmo arched one eyebrow.I don’t get jealous.

Are you sure? Because you sure sound jealous to me,Cullen singsonged.

You know I can call Orion and tell him you let the baby nap on the shelf.

You could, but that would be a bullshit move, and we all know that you’re lonely because Hawk is over in the dragonlands, okay? So just suck it up and come help me get this baby off the damn bookshelf.

They really, really needed Corbin to fight with. It was way less fun to fight with each other and much more fun to fight with Corbin.

“Yeah, I know. Do you think he’s okay?”

Cullen shrugged and shook his head. “I don’t know. I haven’t been able to see him because, you know, nobody wants any of us to get close, just in case, but it’s just not like Corbin to not go outside.” Even in the wintertime, he was outside doing things, clipping things or rooting things or—He’s just in there with that Evander guy, and he never comes out, and the Evander guy’s not even awake. It’s kind of creepy.

Yeah. I mean, how do you have a conversation for weeks with somebody who doesn’t conversate back?Cosmo chewed on his bottom lip, eyes worried.

Okay, you’re both dicks. I can hear you. I’m not…what the fuck? Also, why did you let the baby get on top of a bookcase?

Oh, Corbin! Yay!Hey, you’re busy being with Olivander.

His name is Evander. Stop it.

You mean Everett?Cosmo grinned at him.

I’m going to kick your asses.

That would mean you’d have to come out of your rooms,Cullen pointed out.

I’m fine. He’s in there, he’s talking to me.

Huh.Cullen wasn’t sure he bought it.

I’m serious, he’s talking to me. Just like you two are talking about me constantly when I can hear you. And I miss you both too. We should have dinner.

Together?Cosmo asked.

No, asshole, we should totally have dinner completely separately. I want to see the kids. All of them. I want to see you both. Both of you. Would you just stop? You honestly think that… I mean seriously… I can’t even.

You’re stuttering.

He misses us.Cosmo was all sparkly eyed.

Get the baby off the bookshelf.Corbin snarled.If you doubt that, I’m going to tell Orion that you let him do this on purpose. And all he’ll do is fret.

Be nice or I’ll go let Orion bite your whatever he is, your vampire Pomeranian.

No one even remembers that movie,Corbin snapped.
