“As soon as you can get me before the judge,” she answers with tears streaming down her face.
“So, is that a yes?” I want to hear that word. I need it.
“Yes, Shamus. That is a definite yes.”
With my world aligning perfectly, with the moon shining on my woman, I make love to her out on the patio.
Epilogue
Star
Shamus and I just said ‘I do’ in front of our friends and family. I have a big surprise for him, and I plan on giving it to him in front of everyone. He gave me three months to plan a wedding, and I did so without any huge fanfare. I wanted something easy, intimate, with our friends and family in attendance. It took me a week to convince him that we needed to share this with them, he wanted to take me to the courthouse the very next day.
He didn’t realize that there was paperwork to file and a waiting period. He pouted and stomped around the clubhouse like a wounded animal, much to his brothers’ ribbing, until he finally ended up settling down.
He made it his life’s mission to get me knocked up. Made this big deal about getting rid of my birth control. He and Ella stood over the toilet and watched each pill go down. Then, the two of them had a daddy, daughter party.
We just had our first dance as husband and wife, and I was shocked to discover that my man was smooth on the dance floor. I head up to the mic and call for everyone’s attention. “I need to say a few words to my husband.” The room falls silent as I find his eyes in the crowd. “Baby, if you could come up here and stand before me, please.”
He smiles at me before making his way through the sea of brothers. “What can I do for you, wife?” he calls out.
“I have a gift I’d like to present you with,” I state before handing the small, wrapped package to Gunner. He smiles at me and hands it to Shamus. “Now, before you begin, I would like to say, that today you promised me forever, but that gift right there.” I point to his hand which now holds our forever, “is our future.”
He looks up at me with confusion before unwrapping it. When he pulls the stick out he looks even more mystified. “What is this?”
“That right there, that tells you that you’re going to be a daddy again.”
“I’m gonna be a big sister,” Ella shouts.
“We’re gonna have a baby? You’re carrying our kid?”
“Yes,” I answer as I wipe the tears from my cheeks.
Shamus
This is it, the day I’ve been waiting for. The day that all of my dreams come true. Not only do I have Star forever, but we’re building a family. I jump up on the stage and pull my woman into my arms. I whisper, “Thank you,” before kissing her like there’s no tomorrow.
When I finally pull away from her, she whispers back, “You’re welcome.” I lift her up into my arms and cart her away from the party.
“Have fun, we’ve got Ella tonight,” Kruger calls out.
“Tonight, I’m gonna prove to you how much I love you,” I inform Star.
“And I’m gonna show you right back.”
Two months later
Thump, thump, thump. That’s our baby’s heartbeat that we’re hearing for the first time. It’s the first appointment I’ve been able to make it to with my wife, the other one she had, I was tracking down a lead on Jeremiah and missed it.
I pouted like a sullen child, but at the end of the day, it had to be done.
Life has finally come full circle for Star and me. We’ve settled in, had a few little fights, but the make-up sex makes it all worthwhile. I don’t think she realizes the gifts she’s given me. She brushes it all off as if it’s no big deal, but to a man like me, it’s everything.
In our life, tomorrow is never promised, but she’s made each moment worth fighting for. I’ll never easily go down; I’ll fight every enemy that comes our way so that I can make it home to her each and every night.
“I love you, Star.”
“And I love you, Shamus.”
The End
I hope you enjoyed Shamus and Star’s story. Next up is Texas, Jessia and Malice. Until then, live each day to the fullest. Love your family, love yourself and be happy.
