Chapter 32

Other than Mark and his friends trying to steal Meggie away and destroy her, the situation was turning out better than Tom could have hoped. He wasn’t sure it would continue on this well, but at least they had Family Mart’s legal representative convinced they were married enough that she was assuming misfiling. Combined with the idea of getting married here, as fast as possible, but not before all of Meggie’s family arrived, things were turning out awfully well.

Tom tried to feel happy about this, but all he could manage was lowering his dread and worry down from ‘off the charts’ to merely ‘low for now’.

He and Meggie had passed on walking the grounds with the Moragas. Not that it didn’t sound pleasant – it did. But putting Meggie on the edges of the O’Rourke plantation seemed like asking for something bad to happen.

They were back in their room, though not in bed. There were two large, comfy chairs in there – he was in one and Meggie was curled up on his lap. It was nice – he was able to hold her and stroke her, she seemed relaxed, no one could get them in here.

“You sure you’re okay with us getting married here?” he asked her.

“Yes. I’m more than okay with it, Tommy.” She looked at him – she looked a little worried. “If you are, I mean.”

He smiled. “I’m more than okay with it, too. You sure you don’t feel too…rushed, though?”

Meggie shook her head. “I feel like I’ve waited for this for years.”

“Me too,” he said, just before he kissed her for a good, long time.

She heaved a contented sigh as they pulled slowly apart. “I’m so glad everything sort of seems to be somewhat working out.”

Tom chuckled. “Yeah, I’m not willing to be ultra-positive yet, either.”

Meggie stroked his face. “I’m ultra-positive about being your wife.”

He had to kiss her again for that, which didn’t seem to disappoint her. Tom wondered if he should just go with his original plan and head them back to bed, but reality said that Family Mart would want them to make an appearance. He ended their last kiss slowly, then took a deep breath. “I have some good news, too –”

There was a knock at their door. Meggie sighed, this time with exasperation, and stood up. “You want me to get that?”

“No.” He didn’t, just in case, somehow, Mark had made it inside and was there, waiting to grab her the moment she opened the door. Tom moved her behind him, steeled himself, and opened the door to the threatening sight of Jack and Denise.

“Little jumpy?” Jack asked as they came inside.

“You have no idea,” Tom said with a half-laugh.

“Yeah, on top of everything else, Wanda told us we’re not really married, apparently,” Meggie said to Denise.

“And Family Mart hasn’t run you out on a rail?” Jack asked dryly. “Wow, there’s hope for us all.”

Tom explained what Wanda had told them, and the Moragas suggested fix. He felt he and Meggie both carried this off rather well.
