“Yeah.”
He separated himself from me and lay down next to me. We were holding hands as we watched the stars above us. I glanced at him and found him deep in thoughts as he gazed at the dark sky.
“What are you thinking about?” I asked him.
“I’m thinking about how I wish there was some shooting star right now.”
“Oh? Why?”
He looked at me and smiled. He was so beautiful. “I want to make a wish.”
“Really? So if you saw one, what would you wish? I don’t think we should add a boating trip to this honeymoon.”
He laughed, “No, I’m not wishing for that. Not after last time.”
I watched his hands mindlessly cross his stomach.
He looked at the stars again. “I would wish we could have a new family member soon.”
My heart jumped in my chest and I felt happiness spreading in me. “Oh really?”
“Yes.” He looked at me again. “Here I am—thinking how great it would be if you could get pregnant tonight.”
I grinned widely. This was something I’d been planning to tell him and I just waited for the right time...
I stood up and walked around the beach until I found a stick. He looked at me curiously. “What are you doing?”
I took one small stick and started making letters in the sand with it.
“Hey, Addison?” I didn’t answer anything until I was done.
“Okay. Here. Take a look.” I motioned with my hand to the letters on the sand.
He stood up, his confusion written all over his face. He came over and stopped right next to me.
“You don’t need a shooting star,” he read and cocked his head to the side. “What do you mean?”
Oh, he was so adorable when he was confused. I walked several feet away from him and started writing new letters. I motioned him to read it when I finished. He approached me and read, “Because your wish came true.” He snapped his head at me. “What?”
I giggled and moved to a new spot. I wrote new words and told him to come and read them.
“A new family member is coming,” he read, and I could see that he was becoming excited. “Addison, what does this mean?”
I rolled my eyes and wrote new words beneath the last ones.
“Dummy, I’m pregnant,” he read and his face twisted into a most radiant smile I’d ever seen on him. “So yeah, guess what? Your new wife apparently gets crazy jealous when she’s hormonal.”
“You are pregnant?!” he shouted in joy and I finally erupted into laughter.
“Yes!”
“Addison!” He closed the distance between us and pulled me into his arms. “Oh baby, I can’t believe this!” He brought his hands around my waist and lifted me up in the air.
“Cole, what are you doing?” I squealed as he spun me around.
“Baby, I love you so much!” he shouted, still spinning me around, and I was starting to feel a bit dizzy.
“If you keep doing that I’m going to be sick!”
