She was the lucky one.

“Do you think we’ll be that happy?” Fallon asked as she watched Shea and Elli kiss like they were the only ones in the street and not surrounded by hundreds of little trick-or-treaters.

Lucas nodded. “I know we will.”

“Really?” she asked.

Lucas smiled. “Well according to our wrists,” he said holding up both their hands so that he could read their wrists, “I love you and you love me.”

Fallon smiled as she re-read the words he had said. It had hurt like hell getting the ink on her wrist but it was by far her favorite tattoo aside from Aiden’s. Lucas had the idea to write ‘I love him’ in his handwriting for her wrist and then she wrote ‘I love her’ in her handwriting for his. It looked amazing and Fallon still couldn’t believe that they had made it to where they were.

If someone would have told her 10 months ago that she would be marrying Lucas Brooks in two weeks at one of the biggest wedding venues in Nashville, she would have laughed in their face. Fallon never thought they would make it but they had. They had been through hell and high water, but they made it through it all.

Standing tall and strong.

Together.

Fallon had never loved anyone more than she loved Lucas, and the days couldn’t go fast enough until they were married. She couldn’t wait for the big fairy tale wedding. Yeah, she hadn’t decided on the dress but it didn’t matter. She could walk down the aisle in a raincoat and she knew for a fact that Lucas wouldn’t care. She couldn’t wait for their honeymoon in the Fiji Islands, but most of all she couldn’t wait to be Mrs. Fallon Ryane Brooks. She used to dream of this day when they were younger — of course things were different — but their love was still the same. It always had been and always would be.

As Aiden made his way towards them with Audrey and Levi behind him, Fallon wished that there was a way she could get rid of Levi. After Fallon and Aiden had moved out to move in with Lucas, Levi moved in with Audrey. Fallon hated it, but she knew she couldn’t say anything. It was Audrey’s life and she was going to have to learn that Levi was the scum of the earth. She wanted Audrey to be happy, as happy as she was. She wanted Audrey to find a man like Lucas and love him the way she did.

Lucas placed a kiss at the base of her throat before laying his head on her shoulder. She smiled as she leaned her head against his. “You still love me?” she asked.

He chuckled, “Of course I do.”

Love filled Fallon completely as she smiled. “And you still wanna marry me, right?”

Lucas nodded. “More than anything.”

Fallon loved his reassurance and hated that she needed it, but it all just seemed so unreal. How did she get so lucky to have a man that was totally devoted to her and loved every little imperfection of hers? Lucas was the perfect man in her eyes — even with his temper and quick mouth — and she couldn’t help but love only him and she always would.

As Fallon watched Levi hold Audrey in his arms, her only worry was for her baby sister. Everything in Fallon’s life was coming together like a dream come true but Audrey’s was still a mess, and all Fallon could do was pray that Audrey got her happily ever after. Fallon’s wanted her sister to find true love — her one and only — like she had with Lucas. Audrey deserved nothing less.

Lucas turned Fallon into his arms before bringing her close and kissing her nose. His eyes were bright with excitement and Fallon knew her eyes matched his. She had never been so happy in her life, and it started and ended with Lucas Brooks.

“I love you, baby.”

Fallon smiled as she leaned against him, her lips almost touching his. “I love you, more.”

Lucas gave her a cheeky smile and then said, “So when do we get to start making another baby?”

Okay, well maybe she had two things to worry about.

Crap.
