by Faleena Hopkins


  Laughter ripples through our audience.

  “…and I love it. I love you more than I could ever tell you in words. You’ve made my life real. You give so much and you’re so kind and I admire the fuck out of you. I need you. Will you please marry me? Please always stay by my side?”

  Tilting my head, I joke, “I don’t knooooowwww…”

  He grins, “Maybe think about it?” as people start laughing.

  Losing the smile I hold his eyes as tears fall down my cheeks. I struggle against the knot in my throat and whisper, “I would love to marry you, Jason.”

  He lifts me off the ground and puts the ring on my finger while carrying me as everyone applauds. Then he throws me over his shoulder and spanks my ass while people come over to congratulate us.

  “Put me down!” I laugh. “I’m wearing a dress!” He sets me in front of Simone and turns to shake hands with Usher.

  She grins like a devil at me. “Teehee.”

  “So that’s why you weren’t surprised to see him here.”

  She shrugs like, you caught me.

  “But I don’t get it, Simone. This was your biggest concert yet. Why let him do this on your special night?”

  Her eyes change. “All the times I’ve been on stage were special. I wanted you to be the star of the show for once.”

  Unable to speak I give her a tiny nod and mouth, thank you.

  She hugs me and whispers, “I love you, Sarah.”

  I can only squeeze her back because the lump in my throat is too huge for little me.

  Someone shouts to the engineers to run the music through the speakers. “Let’s move the party out here!”

  “Fucking best idea ever!” Simone shouts. Off my look she smiles, “Just because I meditate doesn’t mean I have to stop swearing.” She starts to head off, then looks back over her shoulder to add, “Or drinking.”

  I laugh and glance over to see my fiancé — oh, my God, Jason just asked me to marry him! — making his way back to me. “It so rare I see you cry,” he smirks.

  “Well, it won’t happen again for a very long time, so...”

  His eyebrows are high on his head. “Oh no?”

  “Nope.”

  “You wanna bet when it will?”

  I cock my head at him. “What do you mean?”

  “Let’s bet on the next time you cry.”

  “That’s ridiculous. How would you possibly be able to predict that?”

  He takes me by the hand and leads me away from the others. Not out of sight, just far enough that it’s a little private.

  “Because I know when it’ll happen.”

  “Okay, I’ll bite. When is the next time I’ll cry, Jason?”

  His eyes grow serious as he laces our fingers together and rasps, “When you give birth to our first child.”

  My lips part as a pang of longing nearly knocks me over.

  A child? Me, a mother? I never thought I would have children.

  Hell, I never thought I’d have a boyfriend, much less a husband who loved me and who I loved, enough to start a family with.

  But Jason Cocker has changed all of that for me.

  He’s changed…me.

  “I can’t take that bet, Jason. I’d lose.”

  He whispers, “I know you would,” and bends to kiss me deeply.

  I return the kiss, and pull away to whisper against his lips, “You’re going to be such a great father.”

  He smiles and surprises me as tears jump into his eyes. “I want that.”

  “Me too,” I whisper, rising on my tiptoes to throw my arms around him in the biggest hug.

  Eight months after our small wedding in Jason’s parent’s backyard, our son, Max Cocker, is born. And we were both right. I would have lost that bet.

  THE END.

  BONUS GOODIES

  I often read a novel and wish I knew what happened to the characters later on in their lives. This answers that call. There will be extra scenes for the entire Cocker Brothers Series.

  And download three free short stories, too. One steamy. One sweet. One dirty hot she-wolf.

  There is a Pinterest Board dedicated to the Cocker Brothers series with images from events and places in them pinned there. Since I live in Atlanta, I used real places for the stories. Two wonderful readers are helping me pin — Carmen A. & Sandra D. Come join in the fun!
