“Now, onto Baby B!” Georgia shouted.
Once again, we counted to three, and when Shaun and Jenni pulled the strings, several pink balloons fell to the floor.
“YES!” Jenni shouted. “One of each!”
“Damn! I knew you couldn’t shoot for two.” Simon hugged Shaun. “Congrats, bro.”
After we all hugged and congratulated Shaun and Jenni, it was time to put my proposal in motion.
“I think we need some music.” Sebastian winked at me.
The song, Dream A Little Dream of Me, loudly played over the speakers as I took Charlotte’s hand.
“Oh, listen. It’s our song. May I have this dance?”
“Of course.” She smiled.
“I can’t believe Shaun and Jenni are having a boy and a girl,” I said as I stared into her beautiful eyes.
“I think it’s great. Now they don’t have to have anymore.”
“Why?” My brows furrowed. “You want more than two children.”
“No. I think one or two is enough,” she said.
“Since when? You told me you’ve always wanted at least four.”
“Never. I never said that.”
“How do you know? You can’t remember.”
“Because right now, I remember always wanting one or two.”
“Well, you changed your mind when you met me.” I grinned.
“You’re making up stories again, Kind.” She narrowed her eye.
I let out a chuckle as I kissed her forehead. The song ended, and it was time. Getting down on one knee, I took the ring from my pocket and held her hand in mine.
“Dr. Charlotte Roman.” I winked at her as I held up her ring. “I wanted to do this the same exact way as the first time, but Jackson and Georgia refused to do the wedding thing all over again. So, I figured tonight would be the next best thing. I love you more than life. You’re my lover and best friend, and I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with you. Charlotte, will you marry me?”
“Yes, Conner. I will marry you.” She smiled as I slipped the ring on her finger, and everyone shouted and clapped.
CHAPTER37
Charlotte
I was restless as a dream held me captive, and I couldn’t wake up. I could hear Conner’s voice in the distance, but the flashes in my head kept me from waking. Suddenly, my eyes flew open, and I only saw Conner gripping my shoulders as I lay flat on my back. It took me a minute to register that I was home and in my bed.
“Thank God. Are you okay?” Conner asked with panic. “You were moaning and tossing and turning. I couldn’t wake you up.”
“I had a memory.
“What was your memory?” he asked as he reached over and turned on the lamp.
Sitting up, I brought my knees to my chest and hugged them.
“The accident.” I stared at Conner.
