I DIDN’T EVER believe Brick and I would get to the point with Autumn that we are now. I’m currently sitting at our wedding reception surrounded by our entire family. Including the Phantom Bastards MC. There isn’t a single available room at the clubhouse and some of our family is actually staying in our homes with us because there are so many people here. Even with the Phantom Bastards going two towns over to Vault’s clubhouse, we still don’t have enough room. This is the first time in a very long time that we’ve had this many clubs together for one event. I’ve missed this shit.
Autumn looks fucking gorgeous. She’s currently dancing with Brick for their first dance as I sit back and watch with our son in my arms. Pierce, our little man, came screaming into the world just a month ago. Autumn went into labor while working at the garage and to say I was a mess would be an understatement. Brick wasn’t much better than me though. We both jumped in the truck and almost left Autumn behind in our quick attempt to get to the hospital. When I called Doc, I couldn’t even tell her what was going on. I don’t remember exactly what I said, but I know it was a jumbled mess. Kevlar took the phone from me after making sure the truck was in park and told her what was going on. The only reason we didn’t leave without her is because Venom raced to the door and stopped me. Then I forgot to put it in park and started rolling across the parking lot. It wasn’t a good day.
When Pierce finally decided he was ready to come out, Autumn had been in labor for over thirteen hours. I’ve never seen her in so much pain. She didn’t complain or anything as she made it through each contraction and then waited for the next one to hit. When he finally came out, Brick caught him and I cut the cord. He was a big boy weighing in at over nine pounds and he was just over twenty-two inches long. Our son is gonna be a big boy. Autumn fell in love the second he was placed on her chest and hardly lets him out of her sight. She’s decided not to go back to work and wants to stay home. Quinn and her will be taking care of all the club kids together so there’s always someone there if one has an appointment.
Pierce is always with one of us. Right now, he’s a miniature replica of Brick. He’s got the same color hair, eyes, and his facial features. Autumn says he might look just like his daddy but he’s gonna be a mama’s boy. I have a feeling she’s right about that. Brick and I help Autumn every day take care of our boy. We get up for all the night feedings and everything. There’s no way in hell we’re gonna let our wife take care of our son when we’re all more than capable of helping her out with him.
Anyway, Autumn looks so beautiful today. She’s got her long hair down in loose curls that frame her face. Other than some color on her eyes, there’s no other make-up covering her face. The dress she’s wearing accentuates her chest while flowing out to the ground at her feet. She didn’t want anything over-the-top for our wedding despite us saying we’d give her anything she wanted. Autumn chose simple for everything other than her wedding gown. The flowers are all wild flowers that the kids picked in the field way out beyond our houses. Our ceremony and reception are at the clubhouse. Tank walked her down the aisle. And the kids of the club were the ring bearer and flower girls. Every single kid was involved in our wedding. Brick and I held Pierce through our vows since he’s so little.
The ol’ ladies catered the entire thing and Skylar made our cake. Zoey and Savage made it here and Zoey’s the one taking our photos for the day. Though, there are those disposable cameras all over the place so everyone can take pictures to add to our memories. Autumn wants as many pictures as possible to fill our home with. Zoey is even doing a photo shoot for us with Pierce. He’s a month old and we want pictures done. She also came to town when he was born for one of those newborn photo shoots. The pictures are amazing and I’m glad we have her in our family because I wouldn’t trust anyone else around our son.
Over the last six months, Autumn has let Brick and I back in completely. We all sleep in the same bed and she initiated sex for the first time about two months after we moved into the house together. Brick and I still spend our days making up for the horrible treatment of her and we won’t ever stop. Even when Autumn insists she’s forgiven us, we will continue to try and ensure she knows we are so sorry for how we were and that we’ll never be like that again. I don’t have a problem with anything as long as she’s happy and we continue moving forward as we have been.
“You’re up, Ghost,” Brick says, pulling me out of my head so I can go dance with our wife.
It was decided that I would marry Autumn and Brick did a commitment ceremony with her at the same time. She wears a ring that showcases all of us on her finger and we got her one with Pierce’s birthstone as well. It has room to add more as we have more children. Standing up, I hand our boy over to Brick and make my way to the love of my life. Autumn smiles up at me and it lights her entire face up.
“Hey, wife,” I tell her, pulling her into my arms as You’re Still the One by Teddy Swims starts to play.
“Hi, husband,” she returns as she lays her head on my chest and holds me close.
“I love you so much, Autumn. You’ve given me more than I could’ve ever expected and we aren’t anywhere close to bein’ done yet. A hundred years with you won’t be enough to show you how much I love you and how sorry I am,” I tell her, closing my eyes as I slowly sway with her in my arms.
“I love you, Will. It took us a while to get here, but we’re finally where we’re meant to be. The past has no place in our present or future. We need to focus on each day as it comes and get through it the best we can. That’s only going to happen with the love we share and the love we have for our son,” she says, looking up at me with eyes filled with love.
We dance through the song before I lead her back to our seats. Quinn and Tank stand up and take the microphone from the DJ that’s doing the music for our day.
“Alright, it’s time for speeches,” Quinn announces as she stands in the middle of the dance floor. “Autumn, I know it’s taken a lot for us all to get where we are today. You are the strongest woman I know and have made us all realize that we need to do better and not hold everyone at a distance because they’re scared to share their story with us. You’ve forgiven us all and let us all in when you didn’t have to. Your friendship means more to me than you’ll ever know. You’re more than one of my best friends, you’re my sister. The love I see you giving to my brother, Ghost, and your son amazes me daily. Your heart is so huge and you have so much love to give. I’m honestly jealous of how giving you are. I just want to say that I love you and I’m so happy you’re part of our family. That you managed to pull my brother’s head out of his ass and get Ghost into shape and open up to how he truly feels about you. Thank you will never be enough for everything you’ve given back to each person here today.”
My wife is crying by the time Quinn finishes speaking. Quinn walks right over to us and pulls Autumn into her arms. Whispered words are shared as the two women hug and cry with one another. For a few minutes no one else matters to them. When Quinn finally pulls back, she gives Brick and me a hug and warns us not to hurt her sister or she’ll call Tank to come kick our asses. It’s a promise and we both know it.
“When I first came down to Cedar Bay, I couldn’t believe I was gonna be meetin’ my niece for the first time,” Tank starts his speech. “I lost contact with my family long ago and never wanted anythin’ to do with them again. Autumn paid the price for that decision and I’ll be sorry the rest of my days that I didn’t get you away from the hell you lived in sooner. I was ready to kick Brick’s and Ghost’s ass when I got here. Along with everyone else. My sweet girl, Autumn, had already been through so much and everyone here was only addin’ to her pile of shit. Thankfully, she’s a forgivin’ soul and didn’t allow me to go on a rampage. Autumn, I love you and am so happy to be your uncle. You make me so fuckin’ proud on a daily basis and it’s a joy to watch you grow and love with every piece of your soul.
“Brick and Ghost, I watched you grow up in the club. You are both strong, lovin’ men who can admit when you’re wrong and spend your time makin’ up for the wrong that you’ve done. If you weren’t able to do that, you wouldn’t be with my sweet girl today. You complete her in ways no one else will ever be able to match and have given her the life she truly deserves. For some reason, you make her happy and laugh again. For so long she didn’t have a reason to laugh. I love you as family and will kick your asses if you ever hurt my sweet girl again. Keep that smile on her face, laughter in her heart, and your home filled with love and memories. I love you all,” Tank finishes speaking as every woman around him are now crying.
Autumn gets out of her chair and rushes up to hug him. Again whispered words are exchanged and Tank uses the opportunity to get his dance in with our wife. She’s Somebody’s Daughter by Drew Baldridge begins to play and we’re close enough to hear Tank’s words.
“I’m not your dad, but you are my sweet girl and I love you so much Autumn. If you hurt, I hurt and that will always be the case. You mean everythin’ to Maddie, Zoey, the triplets, and me. We’ll always be here for you no matter what,” he promises her while giving her a kiss on the top of her head.
“I love you, Tank. If I could’ve chosen my dad, it would’ve been you. You’re the only man in my life who didn’t put stipulations on your love for me from the second you knew about me. Brick and Ghost are there now and it’s because you helped open their eyes. As far as I’m concerned, you’re my dad and always will be. You’re more than an uncle because of how you treat me and the love you give me and everyone around you. Thank you for everything,” she tells him, tears rolling down her cheeks as they dance to their song before Tank brings her back over to us.
The rest of the night we dance, have cake, and spend time with our wife and son. We’re not going on a honeymoon because of Pierce. All the gifts are piled high on the table waiting to be opened. We’re not even worrying about that shit right now. When I see Autumn start to yawn and try to hide it from everyone, I know it’s time to head home.
“Baby, let’s get out of here. You’re exhausted and it will be time to get Pierce ready for bed soon,” I tell her, knowing we try to keep him on a schedule as much as possible. It’s not always possible, but we try our best.
“I’m more than ready to head home,” she answers, another yawn escaping.
Brick stands with Pierce in his arms and tells everyone goodbye for us. I lead Autumn to my truck and help her in the front seat where I buckle her in and close the door after giving her a deep kiss. Brick gets in the back with Pierce and puts him in his seat. Once we’re all taken care of, we head home and get our wife and son in for bed. Autumn gets out of her wedding dress and before either one of us can make a move to help her in bed, Autumn climbs in the middle of the bed and doesn’t move a muscle once her head hits the pillow. We’d love nothing more than to worship her body and show her how much we love her, but she hasn’t been cleared for sex yet. When she has been, we’ll be more than ready to show her how much we love her and will spend all of our time worshiping her body.
For now, we climb in bed with our woman and pull the blankets up tight around us. After kissing her forehead, I pull Autumn into my body and hold her close while Brick moves up behind her. He wraps an arm around her middle and holds her from behind. It doesn’t take long for sleep to claim me. Thoughts of my family fill my mind as I dream of our future and the love we have between us. I couldn’t ask for a better life and this is where I’m meant to be.
