I walk to it slowly and, with trembling hands, open it. Inside, there’s a huge diamond ring engraved with the initials of each of my guys.

Tears stream down my face. Luckily, I don’t have to witness this moment alone. I turn around and see the four of them standing there.

They’re quietly watching me with the ring, knowing that I’m now the happiest woman in the world.

“Are you guys serious? You really want this?” I say, trying to hide the tremor in my voice.

I can hardly believe this is real and that this life is mine. Just when I thought it couldn’t get any better, it does.

Evan steps forward. “Of course, Meg. We’ve wanted this for a very long time. We just didn’t know if you can handle it.”

“And now,” Ian says, “we know that you can. We know that all of us are not too much for you. You can take it.”

I don’t hide my tears of joy. It’s been months and months of getting to know the guys.

They are a lot to take at once, it’s true, but I can handle it. In fact, I’ve come to expect and crave the feeling of all of them.

“We love you,” Matt says.

“And we want to be with you forever,” Paul says, coming to my side.

He holds me, and I swear I nearly faint in his arms. Sometimes the goodness in my life seems like too much.

But now, instead of pushing it away and thinking it’s for someone else, I gladly take the reins of my happiness.

I deserve this. I deserve the very best.

“So, what do you say?” Evan asks.

“Yes! Of course, I say yes. I love each of you, and today you’ve made me happier than I ever thought possible.”

We embrace, and they kiss me all over. Everyone’s happy with the new situation.

A relationship like this really can exist, especially when love is involved. Indeed, love is the focal point of my existence now.

After the proposal, I watch my life unfold in a variety of ways.

The guys immediately begin planning a party of celebration. But we determine that we should have a special, secret ceremony for ourselves in the forest that surrounds the property.

I ensure that it’s decorated to my satisfaction. There are crystals dangling from the trees, and the core of it all is very simple. My dress is simple too—a lace bohemian number that I believe accentuates my best features.

More than anything, on this special day of our wedding, I don’t want to be covered up by makeup and everything else. I want to be myself, unencumbered by superficial things.

I want the guys to know who they’re really marrying, me without a mask or facade.

The day is shining and bright. I take my time getting ready in my new wing of the house. My suite is everything and more than I could have imagined.

But the wedding itself takes place at sunset. It’s just gonna be me and the guys.

They’re meeting me out at the aforementioned place.

I walk across the lawn barefoot to the special ceremony in the forest where we’ve inscribed our names on the tree.

The guys are waiting for me, and they look ruggedly handsome. Each of them, however, looks like himself. I’m marrying four separate, individual men, and yet our love unites us as one.

“You look stunning,” Evan says, taking my hand and leading me to the place of our special union.

All the guys pay me their compliments. But ultimately, the ceremony has a very serious tone.
