"Have you told anyone about us?" I asked, staring at the large ring in my finger.
"Not yet, I kinda wanna surprise them along with the house." He said, grabbing the boxes from the car. I smiled at him. "That's a good idea. I wonder how Elora's gonna take it."
"That what? Her sister is engaged to her childhood bully? Yeah, it's outrageous." He smirked. I chuckled and I grabbed a few boxes as well and walked towards the house.
I placed them on the floor and I sighed. "I can't believe Patty saved up all my stuff from the house. I thought the new movers would get rid of them. A yard sale or... donations."
He smiled at me. "Well, you're very special to Patty. He's willing to do anything for you."
"He's an angel too."
We moved as many boxes as we could, and eventually we shifted most of our things into the new home.
"Caleb, how about this? We settle in real nice and we take a trip? Before the wedding, go see your mom?" I asked.
"Yeah? Really? You'd do that?" "What kind of a question is that? I'd do anything for you, my love." He grinned and grabbed my waist.
He lifted me up and spun me around.
"I can't wait to tell her to fuck off." I laughed. "She's gonna need more than that, Caleb." "I know I know."
He pushed my legs up and I locked them around his waist. He brushed my hair aside and smiled sweetly at me.
"I'm a lucky man. I win at life." He whispered. I chuckled and cupped his face. "No. I win." I kissed him softly and I hugged him tight.
He set me down and held my waist gently. "Will you stay a Smith or a Wilson?" "I don't know. Call me Mrs. Wilson."
"Mrs. Wilson?""
"Oh, wow. I like it." I grinned. He laughed and kissed me again. "I've dreamed of this moment my entire life. I Want to be with you. For eternity if possible."
I tilted my head and I smiled at him. "I wouldn't want anything else." I looked around the room and I sighed.
"We've got a lot to do, handsome. We gotta get started." I grinned. He smiled and nodded, walking away from me.
I stared at the boxes and I smiled to myself. I opened them up and the first thing I saw was the photo frame of Helga, Elora and I. I smiled.
They got me through this the way Caleb did too. I couldn't ever be more grateful. I took it and placed it on the mantle. I grabbed another photograph of Caleb and I in Georgia wearing thug masks and a box of cookies.
I chuckled and I stared at the two photos. They're everything to me. I was grateful. I smiled and walked away, heading to fill this new house with incredible memories.

"Woah! This is so cool!" Liam said. I grinned and hugged him tight. "Hi, Lee." "Hey, sweetheart." He kissed my cheek and I smiled. "How've you been?" I asked.
"Well, I kinda have to go back to college soon. My semester is starting. Kinda bummed I won't be here much with you guys." "Oh, that's fine. As long as you plan on staying in town for the rest of your lives."
"With you here? No doubt." He smiled.
I looked at him dearly and I sighed. "I wanna talk to you. Come here." I took his hand and we went into a more private area.
"What is it?" He asked, looking down at me curiously.
I smiled and I tapped my fingers on the champagne glass.
