“Olivia Abigail Sinclair,” he smiles, and takes my left hand. His greys hold mine, and the depth of love I see in them is the most beautiful sight I’ve ever seen. “Before you, music was the only thing that filled my soul. Then you came into my life and became my favorite song. You fill me with such joy each day and show me a love that I never knew existed. I want to do this life with you by my side. I will always be someone that you and Bee can count on, and I promise to love you, Bee, and our family we create together for as long as there is breath in my body.”
I swipe the tears streaming down my face as he takes the ring in his hand.
“Will you do me the honor of becoming my wife and making me the happiest guy in the universe?”
A small sob escapes as I laugh at our little joke about the planet not being big enough. Nodding my head quickly, I break out into a grin.
“Yes,” I cry softly. “It would make me the happiest woman in the universe to do this life with you.”
His grin lights up the room as he slips the ring on my finger and stands up, crushing his lips to mine.
“I love you so much,” I whisper. “I can’t wait to be Mrs. Montgomery.”
“God, I love the sound of that,” he softly growls and kisses me again.
“Is it time?” I hear Bee whisper, and I break away to look for her.
“Did she say yes?” Charlie’s little voice appears, and I laugh.
“You guys can come out now,” Miles chuckles. “And she said yes,” he grins, looking back at me.
“Momma said yes!” Bee says excitedly, coming out from the back hallway and running over to us. She leaps into Miles’s arms, and he picks her up, laughing.
Surprise washes over me when I see everyone start to pile in. Miles’s parents and his brothers, along with their families. I see Savi beaming at me before she steps aside, and my parents step forward with my sister and her family.
“Mom..Dad? Holly?” I look at my sister, and she smiles at me, brushing a tear away. I glance at my mom again, still surprised they are all here.
“Miles called us last week and asked your dad and me for our blessing,” my mom beams. “We weren’t about to miss it when he asked us if we wanted to be here.”
“Then, he called me and invited us to be here. I’m so happy you didn’t listen to me and stayed in Chicago,” my sister laughs softly. “You two were meant to find each other.”
I look over at Miles, and he grins. “Thought you might want your family here, too.”
“You are pretty amazing, you know that?”
“My fiancé is, too.” He puts emphasis on the wordfiancé, and my stomach flutters when I hear it for the first time.
“I love the sound of that.”
“Me too,” he murmurs. His eyes have that gleam to them, and I have no doubt I’ll be hearing those words coming from his lips later.
“Look what Miles got me!” Bee holds up her chubby little wrist, pulling us away from our thoughts. Touching her arm, I finger the small gold bracelet with a bee charm dangling from it. “He got me something special to wear just like he got you because he loves us both so much.”
“Yes, he does.” I feel the tears again and blink them away. Bee gets distracted when she sees Charlie start to play with Gizmo. Miles sets her down, and she runs over to them.
“That was so thoughtful of you to include her in this,” I say softly, lifting my eyes to meet his.
“I didn’t want her to feel left out. I want her to know she’s just as special to me.”
“She knows,” I smile, as we watch her run around with her new soon-to-be cousins. “We can feel your love.”
“Wait,” I suddenly say, looking around. “I just realized you’re not open.” In all the excitement, I had completely forgotten that we should be working right now.
“I put the word out last week around town that we wouldn’t be open today, swearing everyone to secrecy not to tell you if they saw you,” he laughs. “Tonight's just for us. The girls helped me arrange everything. Food should be arriving soon, and Noah and Mav are coming with their families. Knox is even flying in. His flight should be landing soon, and he’s catching a ride straight from the airport to join us for the night.”
“Does Savi know?” I laugh.
“Yes. And she promised to be on her best behavior. We’ve got a wedding to plan and both of them will be in it, so they need to work their shit out fast,” he chuckles.
