Meghan's POV:
"I think this is the last of it." I told the boys as I came down the stairs with another box." If I have anything else, it would probably be in the garage."

"I can't believe you're moving out. It seems like just yesterday your dad was handing over guardian papers." Jack cried.

"I know. Can you believe that was almost five years ago? God we were so young." I replied." I mean you two were barely even adults and he just handed me over to you."

"Yeah but look where you are now? You've turned into a beautiful young woman. Besides, this is great practice for when we have our own kids." Jackjack said.

"Well it surely was an adventure." I told them." But it's time for the next part of my life."

We finished our moment and they helped load everything into the truck.

"You guys are really going to love this place; it's gorgeous!" I assured them as I started driving. When we arrived at the house, Luke's moving truck was already parked outside and movers were coming in and out with furniture.

"What's all this stuff?" I asked Luke as I joined him out front.

"After I bought the house, I immediately got to ordering appliances and getting everything we talked about. I assumed you wanted it ordered by time we moved in or we're married so once we're back from the honeymoon it's all here." He explained.

"Wonderful. I'm going to take my stuff inside and afterwards we can get to some unpacking." I told Luke before I grabbed a box and lead the boys inside.

"Jesus Christ, Luke bought you a freaking palace." Jack exclaimed when we walked in.

"Come on, let me show you upstairs." I said before rolling my eyes. I've been in this house enough times to have gotten used to the largeness but I guess I never took into account that my friends and family would be surprised at Luke's purchase.

It took several rounds of each of us carrying in a box at a time but eventually all were inside and the boys were free to go home.

"I mean do you need help with anything else like setting up furniture? We aren't busy." Jack asked after I thanked them for all their help.

"I think Luke and I can handle it. It'll give us something to do until the wedding." I replied." You'll both be there right?"

"Us and our parents." Jackjack said unenthusiastically.

"Nice. See you guys Sunday then." I told them before they left.

"The movers just left, what should I be doing?" Luke asked as he came in.

"First this first lets set up the bedroom so we have somewhere to sleep tonight." I told him. We got out the new comforter, pillows, and sheets before making the bed. While I fiddled with the pillow arrangements, Luke unboxed a dresser for himself on one side of the room and unboxed mine on the other.

"Do you want to set yours up yourself?" Luke asked me.

"Sure and then after you give up trying to put yours together, I'll set it up as well." I replied before grabbed the tool box. It took me an hour to set the entire thing up and by time I was finished, Luke had done one dresser and it was upside down.

"Need any help?" I asked him.

"I wanted to prove that I'm manly enough to put together a fucking Ikea dresser but I can't even do that." Luke grumbled.

"Hey, why don't you do the most manly task of all." I told him." Putting all our clothes up in the closet."

"How is that manly?" He asked.
