Needing You #2 - Wanting Him (27 page)

“Are
you two engaged?” Harp asks surprised.

“No, we aren’t,” I say
, giving my boyfriend a look.

“Are you pregnant?” Tuck asks.

“No,” I declare.

“I didn’t mean it like that, it’s just, well, we live together and she knows how I feel about her.  Our next step would be to get married and no I haven’t proposed yet, but you know it’s coming,”
he says as he pierces me with those sexy dark green eyes.

“
Oh my gosh, we could totally do a double wedding, how awesome would that be?” Harper exclaims.

“
Hmm, that doesn’t sound like a bad idea.  That way I can sneak away with you whenever I want,” Parker says as he kisses me softly.

“
Not a fucking chance.  I’m not getting stuck with that shit.  We each have our own wedding. Sorry babe,” Tuck says.

“Fine,” Harp
pouts, “Well, I needed to tell someone and Rowan didn’t come home last night, so well here I am.  Sorry for waking you up so early, but I needed to share it,” she says excitedly.

“No problem, congratulations again,” I say excitedly as I hug each of them.

“Thanks,” they say before leaving and heading home.  Parker and I head back to bed.

Epilogue

(Six Months Later)

“I can’t believe you’re getting married already,” I say looking at how gorgeous Harp looks in her wedding dress.

“I know right, but it makes sense.  He’s working full time and I have a semester left, it just makes sense.”

“What’s Rowan going to do without you?”

“I have no idea,” Rowan says, looking solemn.

“I’m sorry,” Harp says sadly.

“Don’t be.  I’ll be fine, I’ll just find a new roommate,” she simply says.

“Would this be a male roommate?” I question.

“Haha, maybe who knows?  I’m thinking of living on my own for a little while, see how that goes.”

“I’m
gonna miss rooming with you.  We’ve been roommates since freshman year,” Harp says, while giving Rowan a hug.

“It will be fine, it’s not like you’re moving far
, plus we still have this final semester yet.  Things will be good,” she says.

“True.  We definitely aren’t moving far.”

“We can have girl time anytime we want,” I say excitedly.

“Sure can, especially since I’m only moving down the street from you,” Harp says with a laugh.

“This is going to be so much fun.”

“Sorry to interrupt
, but it’s almost time,” Parker says from the door.

“Are you sure you don’t mind walking me down the aisle?” Harp asks nervously.

“No, not at all,” Park says, “You ladies look lovely as ever,” he says as he wraps his arms around me.

I can’t help but smile at my sexy man, all decked out in a
black suit, looking hot as hell.

“I’ll have fun taking you out of this dress later,” he whispers.

I can’t help but giggle, “Can’t wait,” I say with a smile.

“Sorry to interrupt but we need to go,” Rowan says.

“Okay,” Park says as he leans down and gives me one more kiss, “Love you baby.”

“Love you too.”

We line up, Rowan first, then me, then Harper with Park.  It’s a small ceremony of only friends and family.  Tucker still doesn’t talk to his family except for Tessa, she’s here and Harp, well she didn’t tell her mom she was getting married, because she hasn’t talked to her since shortly after her father went to prison.

But the important people are here.  The one’s Harp and T
ucker share their lives with.  The ones that count.

They decided to get married on the beach, so we made the drive to a beautiful little resort that has everything set up.  The place looks amazing and the weather is perfect for a change.

The ceremony is short and sweet and I can’t help but look over at my sexy man standing on the opposite side looking so handsome.  I’m thankful to have found him.  He’s amazing and I’m lucky that even though we had a rough year; we were able to find our way back to one another.

After the ceremony the reception starts and the guys get a little rowdy, but it’s all in good fun.

“Do you see who he’s dancing with?” Harp says as she pulls me to the side.

“Huh?” I ask confused.

“Look at Declan,” she points.

I follow her finger to see that Declan is
, in fact dancing with Rowan and they are dancing close, real close.

“Okay.”

“I knew he liked her.  That smug shit.”

“That was months ago, he’s had a chance to get to know her a little better now,” I say defending him, even though I know the truth.

“No way, they knew each other before.  I just know it.”

“How?
You said she only ever went to class or work.”

“Work, maybe he met her at work.”

“I doubt it.  But who cares, Declan’s great and so is Rowan.  I hope they do work out.”

“Do you think they’re dating?”

“I don’t know, but they look like they’re having fun.”

“Hello beautiful wife of mine, care to dance?” Tuck asks as he sweeps his wife away.

“What are you looking at?” Parker says, as he wraps his arms around my waist.

“Declan and Rowan,” I admit.

“Don’t get any ideas.”

“I’m not,” I say as I turn around in his arms to face him.

“Good.  You look beautiful babe.”

“Thank you.”

“May I have this dance?”

“
Absolutely,” I say as he leads me to the dance floor.
