Hilda Manchester
They were so many questions in my head I just couldn't seem to let go. Like how Richard was here, how Will and Khloe settled and why Hailey was upstairs with Kelvin. The latter was most important and had got me feeling all kind of ways.

Not that I do not trust Kelvin, I trust him with all I've got but Hailey could be crazy sometimes. I didn't want to ruin the night for everyone with my curiosity.

"What's wrong babe?" Kelvin asked probably noticing me. It was weird seeing everyone right here, and maybe it was my raging hormones, I wasn't exactly feeling too comfortable.

"Why were you upstairs with Hailey earlier today?" I asked him. Maybe that was my main issue. He looked at me in utter surprise, I bet he wasn't expecting that.

His loud laughter of mockery caught attention of others in the room but they quickly went back to their various discussions leaving us to ourselves. I didn't miss the sweet looks they gave us, having absolutely no clue about what was going on.

They must have thought we were busy enjoying the moment and appreciating the two new developments from tonight, not knowing I was busy being ridiculously jealous.

"That is the most insane question you could ever ask. Hailey and I?" He said laughing at the thought of it again.

I knew I was being ridiculous but I couldn't help it, I couldn't ask Hailey either not knowing how she would take it.

"Just tell me".

"Okay, I was feeling so nervous earlier and she was the only one who could be there in that moment. Khloe was busy settling a childish dispute between Will and Richard who I wasn't sure why he came at all. Jaime felt he wasn't so good in situations like this, Chris, well, he felt he had been away for too long and can't connect like old times. Only Hailey could be there and she was just the next person who knew you well". He explained to me making me feel stupid. Why on earth would I even suspect anything.

I looked around the room once again and saw pure love. Hailey and Will were busy having siblings moment while playing with the kids while Chris and Khloe were busy talking. They seemed too close tonight considering Khloe and Will just settled, of which I still need the details of. Richard and Jaime seemed to get along well as they spent the night drinking and talking.

Everyone was here which meant I should be happy but I kept feeling uneasy. Why?

"Haven't you had enough fun stealing away my woman for the better part of the day, where on earth do you think you are going with her?" That was Will confronting Chris whose hand was entwined with Khloe's.

Maybe this was why I felt uneasy!

"I wanted to show him something". Khloe told him quickly. One thing I have come to realize is how much of a jealous man Will had become of recent.

"Really? And what is that if I may ask?" He asked her but Chris was quick to butt in.

"Cut her some slack, it's not like she would elope with me or something". Chris told him which earned him a punch on his face.

Okay, someone is really pissed off here! Hailey rushed over to get a hold of her brother, Richard too while Jaime tried controlling his brother.

"What do you all think of me exactly? A loner who steal away your women? Heck, I could get any woman I want, do you know how much women there are in this entire world?" Chris yelled out.

"Calm your balls bro!" Jaime shot at him. He really just snapped and that was unlike Chris or Will, I bet this fight was just long overdue.

"Don't you even! A few days ago you were on about how I took away the woman you wanted while you still jumping around with that bitch!" Chris shot back at Jaime.

This might really end up crazier than expected!

Khloe Diamond
Will and Hailey seemed to be so distracted by this kids, I could see the look Will had in his eyes as he played with them. I knew he wanted to be a father pretty soon, he told me already, I just wasn't sure if I was ready for motherhood.

My attention shifted to Chris on one side of the room, I remembered my discussion with Hailey and decided to approach him.

"Hey!" I said, feeling a little awkward especially because of the last time I got drunk.

"Khloe". His smile was so welcoming when I called my name making me feel a little more comfortable.

"What do you think of all these?" I asked him, watching his smile seemed like so great, I've really missed that. Things had really been crazy since he left town, I knew I chose the easiest option out when all he kept doing was reach out to me and offer his love on a platter.

Will makes me happy, we have those fights but in the end, I'm happy with him and I believe that was what mattered. Chris, he would be happy, I was sure of that, if he isn't now, that is.

"I think a lot had happened in few years and the little Kelvin being the first parent among us is really crazy". He replied and I couldn't agree more to that.

Kelvin had been the most stable of all, his business, relationship, kids, friendship, he seemed to be working them out just fine. Even with his nasty baby mama and Anderson who had been out of town on volunteer work, he has managed to get everything under control.

"How about you Chris? I heard there is this special woman" I asked him hoping he would open up to me. He laughed at me like I had said the most ridiculous thing. I felt Will's eyes on us and knew I had better wrap this up quickly.

"What special woman K-bear? I.... where did you hear that from?" He asked me.

"From her!"

"Did she...." he sighed! "I don't know Khloe, it's all messed up inside of my head. Especially with the kiss and Jaime and you!".

"Right! The kiss got to her". I told him, ignoring the part about me or his brother because those were unimportant.

"I shouldn't have let it happen again". He said almost regrettably.

"Again? Did you two...."

"Ooops! She didn't mention that. She's Will's sister and...."

"And? She likes you, like a lot". I told him. "All of these are mere excuses!".

"She reminds me of Anna, and it is crazy! I see Anna in her and at the end of the day it's still you". He said.

I sighed thinking at the best way to make this make sense to him and finally, I found it.

"Anna was your sister, even though you weren't aware of it, the sibling bond make it impossible to work out, it's different with Hailey. Come here, let me show you something". I told him, pulling him with me.

We were half way out the door when I heard Will's voice.

"Haven't you had enough fun stealing away my woman for the better part of the day, where on earth do you think you are going with her?" He said in anger catching others attention.

"I wanted to show him something". I told him hoping he'd understand but it all just sensed to escalate. I wanted to take Chris outside and show him how bright and beautiful it was, he never would know if he doesn't step out.

There are so many women worthy of his love but if he doesn't step out of the world he had created that had just me and him in it, he never would realize.

It all went crazy and soon became a fight between Chris and Jaime! This was all unnecessary.

"Can you all stop fighting over Khloe and me? We are women of our own brain and hearts, we know who we want!" Hailey yelled at the men and everywhere went silent immediately.

After processing the statement, Richard and Will spoke up at exactly the same time. "Fighting over you?" They both asked their kid sister.

"It's just an happy day, can't we let Kelvin and Hilda have their day? The kids are here too, what examples are you setting for them?" Hailey asked in reply putting everyone back to their senses.

I held on to Will and whispered in his ear "You know no man can take your place".

He gave me the whining look and I just smiled, what a baby!

"Show's over baby!" Jade yelled from nowhere making us all laugh.
