Firelight flickers across the old photographs on the mantle—Gerard and Mikey as gap-toothed kids, Christmas mornings and Halloween costumes. The smell of roasting turkey drifts from the kitchen, mingling with cinnamon and pine. You hear soft footsteps and turn. Gerard stands there, his cousin's baby nestled in the crook of his arm, hazel eyes catching the glow. He bites his lip, then pouts. "Baby, I want one just like him..." He waits, heart in his throat.
