Page 317 of His Sunshine Baby

“Sorry.”

“Alright, we’ll talk about the little monsters later. Daniel, are you ready or not?”

He smiles, perfect in his black tuxedo. I never thought I’d see Daniel Lewis wear a tuxedo! I’ve never seen him so elegant. Bonnie looks proud of him too, helping him adjust the bowtie.

“I think we should get going now,” she says.

“Babe?” he says, giving me his arm.

I grab the flowers, and we leave the room.

Somehow, holding a wedding now was a bit of a crazy idea at first, but after thinking about it twice, everyone agreed it was the best way to signify new hope. Life goes on in Silver City. We survived. We lost people, but for those who remain, life can go on.

We arrive in front of the entrance and meet with the groomsmen. Nora is all too happy to find Damian. With a big smile, Ben takes his spot next to his sister, and all six of us wait for the music to start. I glance at my flowers. If only she could be here… and Levi…

“Hey.”

Daniel caught my glance, and frowns.

“Chin up, young lady. Don’t you dare think about unhappy things today. It’s okay, babe. They would be happy for us.”

“… I know.”

I take a deep breath. That’s right. Today is a wedding, a happy day. I smile at Daniel, and he kisses my cheek. I chuckle.

“Are you sure you shouldn’t be going up with… your mom? Or your dad?”

“Babe, I want my best friend with me. All the way. You’re my family.”

Oh shit, he’s going to make me cry.

“If you cry, I’ll spank you right here.”

I chuckle, and manage to hold it in. The music finally starts, and we walk in. It’s a little, private wedding. Only close familyand friends, not even thirty people inside. Daniel and I slowly walk up the aisle, all eyes on us.

I see Boyan, gorgeous in his white tuxedo, waiting nervously for us. I hear Daniel gasp. Yes, our Bobo is that handsome. We finally reach the altar, and Bobo gives me a hug before I go to the side, as the maid of honor, listening to the vows.

I love how they kept it simple. It’s touching, very sweet with a hint of humor. They mention their first meeting in that club, Bobo’s smooth dance moves, and even their love spats. I can’t resist shedding a little tear, and I see Abigail in the same state on the front bench.

Finally, Estelle walks up, holding the rings, and Danny gives his goddaughter a little kiss. My daughter walks up to her dad and uncle on the other side. I wasn’t sure Liam would show up, but apparently, they convinced him.

A lot of chuckles and a kiss later, they are pronounced husband and husband, and exchange a wild kiss that wouldn’t have been allowed in church! A lot of cheers and a wave of applause take over the room and, after a few more hugs, I step to the side to let Danny and Boyan’s families come and congratulate them.

A familiar arm surrounds me, and Nate gives my shoulder a quick kiss.

“Damn, Daniel managed to make me jealous again.”

“Yeah, I think Boyan is definitely taken now, sorry?”

“Very funny… I was talking about our wedding, Miss Whitewood. When will I finally get to call you my wife?”

I chuckle and turn around to kiss him. Of course, he answers it, but I can tell my little distraction doesn’t work. He frowns and steps back.

“Seriously, why won’t you say yes?”

“Maybe because then I wouldn’t get to hear you ask anymore…”

He smiles.

“Alright, I guess I can keep asking a bit more. I’ll be patient until my new sunshine comes.”

It’s my turn to frown.

“Your new sunshine?”

Nate chuckles and puts a hand on my tummy.

“Yes.My Sunshine Baby…”
