[HOLY SHIT. He could have sworn Royce was pulling his leg the way Royce had been smirking, but he never imagined--
He could imagine, but considering it had only been three-fourths of a year since they had last been! Already! Had it really been almost eight or nine months?! The surprise shows clearly on Hadrian's face. He's nowhere near as good as Royce with hiding emotion unless acting is clearly life or death.
As if he thinks he'll wake the baby, Hadrian creeps closer until he can bend down to see better. He tries not to get in their space, too afraid even breathing on the thing will disturb it.] Would you look at that? [A grin breaks out on his face.] I'm shocked it didn't come out with a full beard and a few rings.
[His voice gets more gentle.] It's a girl, isn't it? What's her name?
