TAYLOR* I looked between them both, and tears welled in my eyes. Connor and Wade got a sad look in their eyes and looked at each other and then back to me. "Did we mess up here? We can wait and do it and do it a more romantic way," Connor said as he reached out to me, and then I smiled the biggest smile I ever had in my life. "Yes," Connor and Wade looked at each other and then back to me. "Yes, what, baby?" Wade asked. "Yes, I will marry you both. I'm crying happy tears, don't worry; this was perfect. I just wish I could actually marry you both on paper. I love you both so very much, but yes, in a sense, I will marry you both. I don't ever want to be away from either of you ever again. I'm ready for us all to spend the rest of our lives together," I said as Wade pulled the ring from the jewelry box and handed it to Connor. Then Connor placed the ring on my finger. More tears fell upon my cheek as I looked at the gorgeous ring they had picked out for me. The band was rose gold, a 1ct—diamond laid in the middle of two smaller diamonds that were half ct. I was guessing. Connor and Wade went above and beyond. I couldn't ask for more. Connor and Wade each lent me a hand to help me up, and we all hugged each other tightly. "So, do you think your dad will relinquish his right to walk you down the aisle so I can?" Connor whispered in my ear. "I talked to my mom about that today, so I'm sure it will work out. It would make everything so perfect, don't you think. You could take your place next to Wade as the best man, but we all know that it would symbolize more, right," I said with a smile as Wade bent down to grab the roses that had fallen to the floor when I had gotten up to hug them both. "Yes, that would be perfect, love. Do you have a vase that we could put the roses in? Wade asked as we made our way to the kitchen. "Oh yes, of course. I want to get a picture of the roses and the ring and text them to my mom. She will be ecstatic," I said happily as I went in search of a vase. Once I had arranged the roses perfectly in the vase, I snapped a picture of them and the ring and sent them to my mom. She wouldn't get the images until in the morning because she and my dad often went to bed by eight o'clock on Saturday nights, and it was now ten o'clock at night. Where had the time gone? I suddenly felt drained; so much had happened today, and being pregnant on top of that, even though I was only a month along, had me spent. Connor took one look at me and, without a word, picked me up bridal style and carried me off to our room. I laid my head upon his shoulder and closed my eyes. Wade moved the duvet aside as Connor laid me down, and they both worked together to strip me of my clothes. Moments later, I felt one of them nudge me to the side and spoon me, but I was tired to register if it were Connor or Wade. It wasn't long before I drifted off to sleep and dreamt of having a baby boy. The morning light showed through the blinds, waking me up from my deep slumber, and I looked over to see that Wade was still spooning me, but there were no signs that Connor had ever come to bed. I carefully climbed out of bed to go to the restroom and brushed my teeth, then looked in to see that Mark was sleeping in for once. Then I made my way towards the living room to see Connor sprawled out on the couch. He had made sure to put on some sleeper shorts but mainly was naked before me, and the sight of seeing him like that made my heartache and my pussy throb. He had no pillow or blanket; I felt terrible. Why had he slept on the couch and not with Wade and me? We've always slept together with me nestled in between them. I walked over, sat on the floor, and laid my head on Connor's chest. He stirred and started running his fingers through my hair. "Why didn't you sleep with us? Didn't you get cold?" I asked Connor as I savored the feeling of him. "Was for Mark; we didn't want to confuse him by us all being in bed together. And no, this couch is surprisingly comfortable; it didn't take me long to pass out. Don't worry; I didn't get cold or anything," Connor said as he stretched his legs. "I hope that Wade can find us a place tomorrow; I don't like for us to be separated," I said and sighed. "I know, love, but it will all work out; you'll see. You don't need to worry about anything. Take care of yourself, Mark, and our baby, and Wade and I will care for everything else. We've got you," Connor said as he sat up, lifted my chin, and kissed me softly. WADE* Taylor's parents came by after church and had brought us some food from the fellowship dinner they had had after Luke's sermon. We concluded that we would all start going to church next Sunday. Today had been the first time Taylor had ever missed church, and it was high time Connor and I got our shit together. Blaze, Jace, and Tanner had been bugging Connor and me to go to their church for three years or so now, maybe more. Melissa had jumped excitedly at the sight of Taylor's ring, and they sat on the couch to talk while taking Mark to his room. Luke and Connor set the table and prepared drinks for everyone to eat. Once Taylor's parents had left, we had all climbed into Taylor's car and took Mark over to Blaze's house so that he could meet Christopher, Nicholas, and Jonah. He wouldn't have a shortage of family and friends from here on out. Tanner and Kaysen had been there with all of their children and announced that Kaysen was two months pregnant. Kaysen said it was a surprise baby considering she and Tanner were told they most likely wouldn't be able to have any more babies. The women took off to Blaze's huge home office to talk woman things while we guys kept an eye on all of the kids and talked. Blaze apologized for clocking me in the eye, and we all laughed it off. It really wasn't all that much of a big deal, and he told me I could come back to work on Monday. "Well, if you wouldn't mind, I need to start looking for a bigger place for us all to live. Would it be ok if I had tomorrow off and came back on Tuesday?" "Yeah, man, that's ok. We've all been here where you are now. Do what you've got to do," Blaze said. "Thanks, man, that's great. Hey, Tanner, do you think you could help me get in contact with your realtor that you used before? I would like to see if your old rental home is still available or if they could help me search for a place. The house you and Kaysen lived in before would be perfect," I asked Tanner as Blaze put a movie on for all of the kids, and Jace went off to make popcorn. "Well, I just made your home search easier," Tanner chuckled. "I bought that house from the family so they could get out from under the mortgage and be able to move on with their lives. I paid way over what the house was worth to help them to get a fresh start on life," "So you haven't rented the house out or anything?" "I haven't had the time to deal with it, in all honesty, with the twins and getting Cora everywhere she needs to be while Kaysen goes to school," "Well, would you mind renting it out to us? If so, how much would you want a month for it?" "How much do you pay for the apartment you're in now?" "Nine fifty a month, and Connor would be coming along with us as well. You know us, I don't think we will ever live apart from each other," "Yeah, that's a bit crazy, but to each is I own, I suppose. Let's go with twelve hundred a month. Technically we paid fourteen hundred, but Kaysen and I don't need the money so," "Alright, that sounds like a plan; when would it be ok for us to start moving in," "If you would like to follow us home here in a bit, I'll get you the keys, and you all can start moving in whenever. Don't worry about this month's rent or the next. Consider that one of our marriage gifts," "Alright, man, thanks, this is awesome," I said. Connor and I told Blaze what was going down. Even though he looked at us weirdly, he didn't say anything and would allow Connor to leave work early tomorrow so that we could pack and move our things. We would be going back to Taylors to help her pack tonight, and I would start packing up our place tomorrow. Everything is working out smoothly, and I couldn't be happier.
