"My, oh my, you are absolutely stunning, my love." Susannah had said as she was in the middle of doing my portrait. "So, how are things with you and Conrad?"
"What?" I asked caught off guard.
"What? You think I don't know things?" She asked.
"What did he tell you?" I questioned the woman.
"Conrad? Please, the boy doesn't tell me anything. It's my intuition as a woman. You two have got sparks." She said. "I saw it at the tournament."
I didn't know what to say as I began to blush at Susannah's words.
"Can I tell you something?" She asked. I nodded. "I've always dreamt of you and Belly ending up with my two boys. It was always perfectly laid out that way."
"I bet you thought it would be the other way around." I smirked seeing as everyone's known about Belly's crush on Conrad for years.
"No, actually. I think Conrad has been a little smitten for you for some time now." Susannah had said.
"What? No." I said in full disbelief.
"Yeah. He doesn't show it well but moms always know. I'm just glad Jeremiah's crush on you has finally faded. Things really could've gotten messy." Susannah laughed.
"Jeremiah's what?" I asked.
"Jeremiah's crush on you. What, you honestly didn't know?" She asked.
"Jeremiah did not have a crush on me." I told her.
"I shouldn't have said anything. I just assumed you knew." She said. "My brains in a bit of a wonky spot right now."
"Wait, so you're telling me that both of your boys, at one point or another, have had feelings for me?" I asked completely taken back.
"I didn't say anything. But yes." She said. "You were all Jeremiah could talk about for the last few years."
What was going on? Was I dreaming? Is this some kind of joke?
"You know what? Enough about my boys. Let's talk about you." Susannah had said changing the subject. For the rest of the portrait sitting Susannah and I had talked about all kinds of things. My mouth was moving but my mind was stuck.

"Hey." I said as I entered the kitchen to find Belly, Conrad, and Jeremiah.
"Hey." Both Belly and Jere greeted.
"Hey, look what I got." Conrad said as he brought a box over to the counter.
"Blueberry muffins?" I asked excited.
"The ones you like from Rosie's . They have the sugar on top." Conrad explained.
"Thank you." I smiled at the boy. Conrad knew that these were always my favorite growing up in cousins every summer. They were the best muffins I've ever had.
"Yeah. No big deal." Conrad brushed it off. He doesn't want people to know when he's put a lot of thought into something...into someone.
"Girls, you should get going. Oh, and everyone, please stay out of the family room. I've done all your paintings and tonight, after the ball, we will have a big unveiling."
"So I'm the only one who's not an escort? Who am I gonna hang out with?" Josh sighed.
"What, us moms aren't good enough for you?" Laurel teased.
"I didn't say that." Josh threw his hands up in defense.
"So, who's taking us?" I asked as I had finished up my muffin.
