Nevertheless, I was even surprised to see that Sara Lewis, Deputy Sara Lewis, had caught it.
I could not stifle a "Yes! Yes!" as I jumped off my perch and delivered an impromptu cheer complete with a goofy dance that I have no idea that I knew. But there it was retrieved somewhere from my subconscious to make me look like an idiot.
But that was ok. It was my wedding and I could be as silly as I felt like. And besides, no one ever looked dorky in a wedding dress doing anything.
Sitting beside her was Derek. I watched his reaction carefully and I was happy as could be to see him hug Sara and give her a huge kiss. The two had started dating right after the night of the abduction and they had fallen head over heels in love.
When I looked at Derek and what a great friend he’d been and how much he deserved to be with someone special tears of joy came to my eyes. I was so happy for my good friend.
“Well, that is very fitting,” Tony said as I sat down beside him.
“Yea, it’s perfect,” I said.
I heard a soft coo and a little gurgle coming from my left. Little Devon was sitting on Tony’s mother’s lap. She had taken to him almost immediately and she was everything that grandmothers are supposed to be. She was sweet, kind, wise, and loved to spoil little ones. I was perfectly happy to let her spoil my kid rotten.
“So, did everything turn out the way you wanted it?” Tony asked me.
I looked around at how perfect everything was and smiled, before leaning over and giving him a sweet kiss.
“Yes, baby. It’s all perfect,” I said. “How about you?”
“Well, you are here. And you are happy. That is all I’ve ever cared about.”
“You’re right,” I replied. “I am probably the happiest woman in the world right now.”
I have never felt more alive.
