I'm Finally Wanted

Epilogue #2

*14 years later*

Tyler's pov:

"Dude, you do know when you say you look ugly you're saying I look ugly. We have the same face! And I am not ugly." River says crossing his arms as he watches Wyatt try to tie his tie.

"Oh just shut up and help me tie this tie!" Wyatt groans.

"You think I know how to tie a tie?" River questions. "As if."

"But you're supposed to be the smart twin!! How do you not know?!"

Both boys turn and look at me. "Dad! Help please!"

I start laughing. "Why do you think I never wear ties? I have no idea how to tie one." I say motioning to my own untied tie.

"Great. I'm here on my wedding day and have no idea how to tie a tie. Abbey's gonna be so disappointed in me!"

"Here we go again!" River says throwing his arms up in the air.

"Wyatt, you and Abbey grew up together. You were engaged for like.... 4 years. Chill out man. The lady's madly in love with you." Noah says as he walks out from the bathroom.

"Wait, Noah. Who tied your tie?" Wyatt asks.

"You mean none of you three know how?" Noah asks.

We all shake our heads. "Oh. Well mom tied it." Noah says shrugging.

"Of course it was mom!" Wyatt says. "Come on guys. Let's go."

"How about you guys stay here and I'll go get your mother." I walk out of our little hotel room and into the hotel room for the girls.

"I was the same way when I was getting married to Chris. But I've since learned how loyal the Short men are. Everyone knows how loyal they are to their wives. He's not gonna get bored of you." Mel says as she rubs Abbey's back.

"Hey ladies, have you seen Raven?" I ask.

"I'm right in here!!" I hear Raven yell from the bathroom.

I walk into the bathroom, and see her getting ready to put makeup on. Great time to intercept that.

"Come on love, we need your help with a little situation."

"Yea sure. One sec." I grab Raven hand.

"Nope. We need you now."

Raven rolls her eyes. "Mhm. You just don't want me to wear makeup."

"Damn right. You're beautiful without it." I say dragging her along.

I drag Raven over to the boys hotel room, and see Chris finally got here. And he doesn't know how to tie a tie either.

"Ok boys, our savior is here!!" Chris yells.

He walks over to Raven and pulls her into a hug. "Hey mama. I've missed you."

"Me too bud." Raven says patting Christian's back. "Ok. So who needs their ties tied?"

...

We've now made it a tradition to have all the family over for dinner before the two new married couple heads off for their honeymoon.

I bounce downstairs after changing out of my suit, and see the main floor has already turned into a chaotic mess.

Dax and Hanna's two kids are sitting out in the living room, playing with Wyatt and Abbey's kid. Anna's two kids are also playing with them. Jon and Kali's kids are also in the mix of little kids under the age of ten playing.

Noah, Angel and Easton's three teens, Thomas and Savannah's teen, Eleanor and Peter's teen, and Keely and her daughter are all sitting on the couches talking about something while also watching my little pony and keeping an eye on the younger kids.

My parents are somewhere probably talking with someone else parents. Dax and Hanna are talking with Angel and Easton. Maranda and her husband Frank are chatting with Raven's parents. Hailey is talking with Mel's parents. Thomas and Savannah, Jon and Kali, Eleanor and Peter, Chris and Mel, Wyatt and Abbey, River and his fiancé Emily, and Anna and Hayden are all having some discussion about something I'm not sure I want to know.

I find Raven sitting by herself in the kitchen, just watching everyone. So I go over to her.

"Hey love."

"I am not looking forward to doing this three more times." Raven sighs. "Each time the amount of people increase."

"I know. We have to make so much food for so many people."

Raven slaps my hand as I try to sneak a dinner roll making me frown.

"Oh my gosh. Every time Tyler!"

I smile sheepishly at her. "What can I say? I love dinner rolls."

Raven rolls her eyes. "It's more of an obsession."

I wrap my arms around Raven and pull her into my side and kiss the side of her head. "I love you."

"I love you too."

"Shall we go and socialize?" I ask Raven. Ever since.... the incident Raven couldn't handle being around large groups of people for too long. It's just drains her energy. She was never a really sociable person, but now she'll burnout if she's around too many people for too long. And her burnouts are never good.

"I kinda just wanted to sit here for a bit. But you can't go socialize."

I chuckle. "Funny, you think I'm just gonna let you sit here all by yourself?"

"Have I said how much I love you?"

I smirk and give Raven a quick peck on the lips. "Maybe once or twice."

*****
Just gonna say, the incident isn't what happened with Steve.
