“Because you’re special.” He leaned over and whispered in my ear.

“You’re lucky I don’t have the energy to slap you,” I said, and he chuckled.

“You know, babe, I really miss running the diffuser at night,” he shouted from the bedroom.

“I have a solution for that.”

“What?” he asked.

“You can sleep in the guest room and run it all you want.”

“No can do, babe. You need my chest since you didn’t get a new pillow.”

“Because someone rushed me out of the store!”

I stood up from the floor, changed into my nightshirt, and climbed into bed next to Conner. Pulling out my journal from the nightstand, I began writing in it while Conner read myWhat to Expect When You’re Expectingbook.

“Dear me, Conner got on your nerves today, and it took everything for you not to kill him,” I spoke out loud as I pretended to write it down.

“What? You did not just write that.” He grabbed my journal and looked at it.

I sat there with a wide grin on my face.

“No journaling for you tonight.” He set my journal down on his nightstand.

I scooted down and lay on my side as Conner did the same and faced me.

“Seeing our little peapod today was incredible.” A smile crossed his lips as he softly stroked my belly.

“Yeah. It was. It made it more real.” I smiled. “Don’t forget I have my appointment with Dr. Bancroft tomorrow. I’ll be in the office after.”

“Youdon’t forget you have an appointment with Dr. Bancroft tomorrow.” A smirk crossed his lips as he leaned in and kissed me.

CHAPTER42

Charlotte

I was standing in the middle of the suite in my wedding dress when there was a knock at the door.

“I’ll see who it is,” Charleigh said. “This was just delivered for you.” She smiled and handed me a beautifully wrapped, elongated box and a card.

Opening the card, tears filled my eyes when I read it.

To my beautiful future wife,

You know how tradition goes. Something borrowed, something blue, something old, and something new. This is something new for you. When I saw it, I knew it would look beautiful on you. I hope you love it as much as I love you. See you soon, babe.

Love forever,

Your future husband

“Oh crap. Why do these guys have to do this?” Jenni said as she grabbed a tissue and handed it to me.

I took the wrapping off the box and opened the lid. Inside sat a beautiful diamond bracelet.

“It’s so beautiful. I can’t believe he did this,” I said.

“Yes, you can.” Georgia laughed. “We all can believe it.”
