“It’s …” Savannah says, looking down at her finger and then looking up at me again with tears in her eyes. “It’s beautiful and too much.”
“Holy crap,” Kallie says, then hits my shoulder. “You did good, Beau.”
“Let me see this,” Olivia says, taking Savannah’s hand and looking over at me. “Princess cut.” She whistles. “What is this, four or five carats?” I look down at my hand still around Savannah’s waist.
“Four,” I say, trying to avoid Savannah’s eyes.
“With the eternity band,” Olivia now says. “That, right there, is the dream. Look at the side,” Olivia says, turning it.
“It’s the infinity symbol,” I say and look down at her finger with my ring on it. “Means forever.”
“Beau,” Savannah whispers, and my eyes go from her ring to her eyes. “It’s …” She brings the ring closer to her. “It’s too much.”
“It’s forever,” I say, grabbing her hand and kissing it.
“Let’s eat.” I hear Charlotte and Cristine.
“What is that?” Savannah points at the far yard where more lights are strung.
“It’s our reception,” I say, grabbing her hands.
“We need a picture,” Kallie says to us. “Pose over there under the canopy of flowers.”
I grab Savannah’s hand and link our fingers together. “How do we pose?” she asks when we get under the canopy.
I wrap my arms around her waist. “We pose like we are a couple in love,” I say, and she stops talking. “Smile and pretend that today is the best day of your life.”
I hear the clicks and see the flashes of the phones, and then I lean in. I’m about to kiss her when she puts her hands on my chest. “But what if it is?” she says with a soft smile. “After having Ethan, today is the best day of my life.” That’s the last thing she says before I bend to kiss her. This time, I don’t stop, and my tongue slips with hers. One of my hands goes to her face, and I move my head to the side, taking the kiss deeper. I kiss her until we are both breathless. “I think they got the picture,” she says.
“You guys need to get a room,” Casey says, making everyone laugh. “Good thing we got you that wedding gift.”
Savannah looks at me, and I shrug. “No clue.”
“Well, we didn’t know what to get you two.” Casey comes over to us now. “You know, since you gave us five hours’ notice. So …” He looks at Olivia. “We did the only thing we could. We are giving you my cabin in the woods for the weekend.”
“You leave tomorrow,” Olivia says, all excited. “It’s a one bedroom in the middle of nowhere. There isn’t even a Wi-Fi signal.” She folds her arms over her chest, side-eyeing him.
