Chapter 125: A prized pony
Maxwell was waiting behind for him as everyone else headed after the newly married couple. The concern in his expression made Andrew want to laugh.
"What?" Andrew asked as he reached his side. Maxwell was the first to grab his hand and give it a squeeze.
"I just wanted to make sure you were alright. That was..." Maxwell gulped, looking a little green and Andrew chuckled. He bent down to press a kiss against his cheek.
"I’m alright. Funnily enough, I got used to it because of my Mom’s illness. I know that I’ll have no issues with changing diapers or anything of the sort." Andrew gave a thumbs up. "I’ll be a great Uncle Andy." He said with a grin and Maxwell softened. He glanced around and noticed that the room was clearing out. No one was paying attention to them.
Maxwell pulled Andy down and kissed him deeply.
"Uncle Andy? Who says anything about Uncles? I’m keeping you to myself." Maxwell muttered. "They can hire a nanny. I’m looking forward to you in nothing but an apron running around with a baby on your hip. That’s going to be very hot." Andrew laughed at the image Maxwell painted.
"And impractical. Babies throw up a lot, Maxwell. At least give me a blanket over one shoulder in your fantasies." Maxwell narrowed his eyes at Andrew’s cheeky response.
"I’ll consider it." He told him.
"Boys! Hurry up!" Mrs. Beckett called and Andrew grinned, squeezing Maxwell’s hand.
"We should go." Andrew told Maxwell, who sighed heavily.
"If we don’t, she won’t stop nagging us." His tone was harsh, but his eyes were sparkling. He squeezed Andrew’s hand back, and tugged him towards where the others were. Andrew felt his heart squeeze. He’d never felt this included in a partner’s life before.
