Addicted to Her Curves

“Without hurting me in any way.”

“As if we’d ever hurt you. Come on.” Scott lifted her up underneath her arms and Beau couldn’t help but laugh as he grabbed her feet.

Connie burst out laughing. “Seriously, this has to be the most unromantic way a woman’s been escorted into her wedded home.”

“I’m sure a few men have carried a drunk woman over the shoulder,” Beau said.

Once inside, he put her on her feet and she stood up, blowing some of her hair out of her eyes.

Beau pulled her close. “This is what I’ve been wanting to do all day.” He sank his fingers into her full hair and pressed his lips against hers. “Precious. That’s what you are to me, baby.”

She smiled. “I love you.” She reached out and pulled Scott close. “This day has been the best one of my life.” She sighed. “I love you guys so much. Thank you for not walking away and not giving up on me.”

“You’re our woman and we’ll love and take care of you for the rest of our lives,” Scott said.

“Until death parts us,” Beau said.

He lived for her smile.

Scott grabbed his and Connie’s arms.

“What are you doing?” Connie asked.

“Making this complete once and for all.” They walked outside to see the porch lit up, looking beautiful, sweet, and charming. He and Scott had been preparing this for the past few weeks so Connie had somewhere to sit. “I think it’s only fair we make this official once and for all.”

Scott pulled out a ring, presenting it to them.

“You already picked the ring?” Beau asked.

“I didn’t want this moment to prolong. We all agreed to love and cherish each other. To be loyal. You’re my best friend, Beau. We were going to fight over this woman, but that changed and now, we’re working together and are united in our love of one woman. What is mine, is now yours. I have made sure if there is anything that happens to me, everything I own will be given to the two of you.”

“Aw, come on, man, this is a wedding. Don’t be talking about that shit,” Beau said.

“It’s because of my love for the both of you that I am. I wanted you both to know that I love you more than anything in the world. You’re my life and I’ll do whatever it takes to keep us together.”

Connie walked up and kissed him. “And I will do everything in my power to show you that I love you. That I want this to work, and I belong to you, just as you two belong to me. We’re in this forever, together.” She took Beau’s hand. “We’re a team. I didn’t think it was possible to feel this way about anyone, but I find myself for the first time ever in my life excited about the future about what it will mean.”

Beau cupped Connie’s face and kissed her. Next, he grabbed Steve’s shoulder. “I will take care of the both of you. Nothing I do anymore will be done out of selfish reasons. I will be here for you, for all of you. I love you so much, Connie. I want to be a father to your children, and a husband to you. Of course, I also want to hang out with my best friend as well.”

They all chuckled.

“I promise.”

Scott handed Connie the ring. “I think it’s only fair you get the honor of making him your second husband.”

Connie chuckled. He watched as she took the ring then held his fingers. She took a deep breath. “Beau, would you be my husband?”

“I’d love it more than anything.”

As she slid the ring onto his finger, he felt her stroke the band back and forth.

Her finger already held their rings. Scott had found the perfect one that bound two pieces together as one, held with a diamond in the center.

“Now I think it’s only fair we consummate this marriage.” Beau lifted her up over his shoulder, being careful with her potential bump. She wasn’t showing too much yet, but the morning sickness was a killer for her.

With Scott leading the way, he carried her up to the bedroom.

Rose petals covered the floor and bed. Beau wasn’t about to complain, not as he placed her on the floor and kissed her hard. Scott was already removing her dress.

This was even more perfect than he could have ever imagined. He’d hoped for something like this but he didn’t think it would be possible for him to get it. Now that he had the perfect woman, his best friend, and a baby on the way, he didn’t for a second believe it could get any better.

Seven months later

Connie screamed as another contraction rushed through her body. All day she’d been feeling uncomfortable but she hadn’t said anything to Beau and Scott. The last time she’d gotten pain it had turned out to be Braxton Hicks. She hadn’t wanted a repeat of rushing to the hospital.
