2 months later ~
It's been two months and I still can't believe I get to call Ricky my husband. It's unreal and I can't even begin to explain the happiness I've felt the past weeks. It's nothing I've ever experienced and I'm overjoyed to be feeling so good about life and to finally be happy and have a normal life without depression ruining everything.
"Hey Blade, can you come in here and help me with something?" Ricky asks from the other room.
"Yeah. Give me a second," I reply as I admire the beautiful symbolic circular contraption on my finger.
I sigh with happiness and go to see what Ricky needs.
As I walk into the kitchen, I get sprayed with silly string from more than one laughing source.
I immediately cover my face and hold back the tears of humiliation and laughter.
Suddenly the stream stops and Ricky comes to my side, sounding guilty.
"I'm sorry Blade I didn't mean to upset you," he says sadly while I'm laughing and not crying.
I put one of my hands behind my back to ask for a spray can and much to my surprise, one ends up in my hand and I spray Ricky's hair, still laughing.
He gasps in surprise and I burst into more fits of laughter as do the guys.
"Not cool," he says sullenly and I try to hold back my laughter but I can't.
"Come on, it was funny and totally believable," I say as I come down from laughter so hard, wiping away the tears.
The spray match begins again and it was the most fun I've had since Ricky and I's wedding and honeymoon.
As we all collapse on the couch, content but sour from who got what kind of spray opportunities.
"This is the happiest I've ever seen you Blade," Balz comments and I smile shyly.
"Because there's nothing to be depressed about anymore. I'm married and with the love of my life. It couldn't be any better," I say and grab Ricky's hand, smiling.
"I'm glad to see my sister so joyful, I'm glad you're better," Devin says and I smile again.
"Thanks guys. But please. Stop commenting on how happy I am. I know. I feel it and show it. No more sadness. I've never been so happy and I just want to live in it," I tell them and they all nod.
   "So. We have some news." Ricky says to the guys.  I smile at him and grab his hand.
"We're having a baby!" I say. The guys exchange some questionable looks before reacting to the news. "Why the faces?" Ricky asks. "Well, because you've had miscarriages," says Chris. "We've talked to an OBGYN and she says that everything is going perfectly right now. Plus, I'm in the best emotional state I've been in in a while so the baby won't feel so many of my feelings and stress this time around," I say. They smile and congratulate us. "I'm going to be an uncle! Devin says. Balz asks, "What are you guys hoping for?" "We're hoping for a girl," Ricky says. "That's great! Thought of any names?" Chris asks. "Anastasia or Heather for a girl and Jasper or Luke," I say. "Those are great names," Balz says. "Thank you guys." I reply. "You guys hungry?" Ricky asks the guys. They all share a variation of yeses, including one from me, so Ricky goes and makes food. Once he's finished we all sit in the dining room and eat. We all have a good time eating and conversing. It was a good day.
