“You’re such an asshole. I changed my mind. I am not marrying you, Dr. Kind.”
“Yes, you are.” I winked as I left the bedroom.
“Yeah, well, I’m going to find it and put it on! So there,” she shouted as I walked down the stairs.
“Good luck finding it, babe.” I laughed.
Was it wrong of me to keep her ring from her after telling me she would still marry me? Probably. But she didn’t remember the first time I proposed to her, so I wanted to do it again.
I grabbed a beer from the refrigerator and leaned up against the island, waiting for her to come down.
“Did you find it?” I grinned.
“No.” Her eye narrowed. “Forget it. I don’t want that stupid ring anyway.”
“Sure, you do.”
“No, I don’t, Kind.” She pointed her finger at me, and I laughed.
“What do you want for dinner?” I wrapped my arms around her waist and kissed her lips.
“Pizza, salad, and breadsticks.”
“I got you, babe.” I smiled.
After we ate, I texted my brothers and cousins to meet down at Shaun’s house.
“I’m going to run down to Shaun’s. He just texted me and needs my help with something,” I lied.
“Okay. I’ll be upstairs searching for my ring,” she said.
“You won’t find it.” I chuckled. “But be my guest.”
I walked down to Shaun’s house, where my brothers and cousins were gathered in the living room.
“What’s going on?” Jackson asked as I stepped through the sliding door.
“Yeah, bro. Why couldn’t we meet down on the beach?” Nathan asked.
“Because I didn’t want Charlotte to see us. I have some news.”
“Uh-oh,” Sam said.
“Charlotte told me earlier that she still wants to go ahead with the wedding.” I grinned.
“Thank God.” Jackson hooked his arm around me.
“We knew you could do it, cousin.” Simon grinned.
“This calls for a celebration.” Shaun smiled as he walked over to the bar and poured all of us a glass of scotch.
“What made her decide to go through with it?” Christian asked.
“She wrote about me and our life together in one of her journals about eight months ago. She was treating a patient at the time who fell off the balance beam and lost all of her memories.”
“I remember her telling me about that patient,” Jackson said. “Shit. I totally forgot all about that.”
“And she received a call today from Joseph at Cartier. My wedding band was in and ready to be picked up.”
