I’ve been feeling it myself for a couple of months now, and I’ve had a few conversations with Jade, trying to sort out my feelings, wondering if I should put a label on how I feel for them. I’d never been in love before — it’s essentially impossible when you limit your exposure to one night only.
But I’ve been sure for a while now.
“I love you too. Each of you. All of you. And I love us together,” I tell them, tears prickling my eyes.
They all get up and I rise to meet them. I anticipate their kisses, but instead, Devin takes a step back, reaching into his pants pocket.
“That’s not all,” he says. “We know we can’t be legally married, but we want you to be ours. Always.” He hands me a small ring box and I open it to find a beautiful diamond solitaire that sparkles in the candlelight. I’m too stunned to breathe.
I’ve grown used to receiving gifts from them — little things usually, like flowers, earrings, or a spa treatment when I’m really tired from work. But this is something else entirely. This is more than just a ring.
“Will you be ours, Becca?” Shane asks, his warm brown eyes looking into mine.
“We’re committed to you, and we want the world to know it,” Khalil says.
“With the size of this stone, it’s going to be pretty unmissable,” I finally manage to say, a combination of tears and laughter joining my words.
They laugh too, but they’re watching me, waiting for an answer. “Yes,” I say. “Absolutely yes!”
Marcos extracts the ring from its holder and slides it onto the ring finger of my left hand.
“It fits perfectly,” I say, unable to take my eyes from it.
“Just like you fit us perfectly,” Shane says as the four of them close in around me and surround me with their love.
Before I knew about the special evening the men had planned, I thought I might spend some time reading a new book I downloaded this morning.
It looks like a good one, and I’d been looking forward to it, but now, I know it’s going to be disappointing. No story in a romance novel could possibly measure up to the happily ever after that’s going on right here.
