“Yes. Always yes.”
Owen takes my other arm and loops it through his, and together, they walk me down the aisle as music starts to play.
The officiant begins the simple ceremony as our friends look on. “We’re here today to celebrate love in all its forms. Love of friends, romantic love, and the love that binds a family together. If you would please face each other.”
We form somewhat of a V, with me as the hinge, and wait for the ceremony to continue.
“Tobias, do you take Bellamy to be your wife, promising to love and cherish her?”
Tobias squeezes my hands. “I do.” Two simple words, but so full of meaning.
“Bellamy, do you take Tobias as your husband, promising to love and cherish him?”
“I do,” I say, gazing into his eyes as I speak from my heart.
“And do you take Owen as your husband, promising to love and cherish him?”
“I do.”
After Owen says, “I do,” to me, he reaches for Tobias’s hand, still holding mine, and nods to the officiant. I listen with fascination, joy, and surprise as she asks them to make a promise to each other. “Tobias, Owen, do you vow to cherish each other in friendship and brotherhood? To put Bellamy’s well-being first, always. Do you promise to work through your differences for the good of your family?”
They share a meaningful look. “We do,” they say in unison, and my heart soars.
They seem to have thought of everything, because gorgeous rings appear, and the officiant walks us through exchanging them.
When we’re done, she breaks into a huge smile and says, “By the authority vested in me, I now pronounce you husband, and wife, and husband. You may seal these vows with a kiss.”
Cheers erupt from the small audience as we share tender kisses, and even if it’s only for a moment, everything is right in the world.
Hand in hand, we join our cheering friends.
Zara pulls me into a tight hug. “I’m so happy for you, sweetie!”
I grin. “Thank you so much for being part of the surprise. I hope I didn’t get you in too much trouble.”
She laughs. “Don’t even worry about that. Everything worked out the way it needed to.”
Owen and Tobias are shaking hands with the men, so I look for Skylar, but I don’t see her.
“She had to go get ready for her show. Matteo is letting her go back on.”
“Does she know?”
Zara shrugs. “About Bryce? If she does, she hasn’t let on. But she has been moody all day.”
Owen and Tobias rejoin me, and each take a hand. “Come on, love. We have paperwork to finish.”
They lead me to a table where we fill out two copies of the marriage license. One says Owen’s name, and the other says Tobias’s.
Owen folds them and tucks them into his jacket. “We’ll decide which one to file tomorrow. Right now, we have to get to our reception.”
“Reception? Where is it?”
He winks. “The club, of course. We owe you a spanking.”
