I smile broadly and my eyes hold his as he gazes at me lovingly.

“We are getting married,” I whisper.

He smiles broadly and nods. “Yes,” he answers.

I hold my hand out to look at my ring again. “This is a big fuck off ring.”

He smiles broadly. “Only the best for my wife.” He starts to undo the bottle of Dom Perignon.

I laugh and hold my hand over my mouth. “Wife… that sounds weird,” I stammer.

Joshua screws up his face. “It does, doesn’t it?” The cork pops. “Sounds old.” He frowns as he pours the champagne into our glasses

He hands me my glass and I clink it with his.

“To growing old.” He smiles.

My heart melts and once again I tear up. ‘To growing old,” I whisper.

Natasha has never been more beautiful and I have never wanted her more. Her happiness is beaming from her like sunshine. She has been teary all night but reall

y lost her shit when she rang her mother. Even I may have had a moment at the happiness in her voice when she told her. We have just arrived at the beach to find the others. We see them at a beach bar and, holding hands, we approach the group who are sitting around a bench table on stools.

“Where have you guys been?” Abbie questions with raised eyebrows.

Natasha’s smile almost blinds me. “Oh, you know… just getting engaged.” She holds out her hand proudly and the three girls all break into screams and start jumping around. I am then inundated with kisses from the girls as they continue to jump around in a circle like freaks.

Cameron shakes my hand and pulls me into an embrace as does Adrian. Ben throws ice at me and then shakes my hand.

“Congratulations. Did it go ok?” Adrian smiles.

“Yeah it went well,” I reply as I take a sip of my beer. I can’t hide my smile. “This is a good day.”

We look over at the girls to see Natasha in tears again. “What’s with the waterworks?” Cameron asks.

I shrug. “I don’t know. She’s been in tears all night.” I shake my head at her over-the-top happiness.

Cameron nods. “I would cry too if I had to marry you,” he says matter of factly. Adrian laughs and hits his bottle with Cameron’s.

“Did she notice the fairy lights?” Cameron asks.

I roll my eyes. “Yes, she noticed the fucking fairy lights.” I smile. Yesterday I made Cameron get up the tree and hang the fairy lights in preparation. I’ve never heard so much complaining in all of my life. Adrian’s job was to get the girls out of the house for the day and he did that well, with not a complaint.

“She liked the ring,” I mutter to Adrian as I swig my beer. “Thanks for helping me pick it.”

“I knew she would. It’s a beautiful ring.” Adrian smiles as he slaps me on the back. “I won’t ever get to pick one out so I enjoyed it.”

Cameron shakes his head. “You never know. When you marry your drag queen she could want a big ring… to match hers.”

Adrian fakes a smile at Cameron. “You’re so funny,” he mouths.

Natasha’s eyes meet mine through the crowd and I melt. She smiles broadly and her dimples nearly split her face. Then she walks over to me and wraps her arms around me.

“Dance with me my beautiful fiancée?” she whispers.

I’m with my love and we are getting married. Anything from here is just icing on the cake.
