Families & Finishes
Austin POV
"Ally, come on! We're gonna be late!" I shouted up the stairs. I waited impatiently with my keys in one hand and my other hand trying to loosen the stupid bow tie I was being forced to wear.
"Sorry, just a sec!" she called back. I heard a door close and high heels click down the hardwood floor in the hall. Then, my beautiful wife appeared at the top of the staircase. She gripped the railing with one hand and used the other to hold our one year-old daughter, Isabel, on her hip. "Do I look okay? I don't want to embarrass Trish."
"You look perfect," I assured her. "Besides, you're the only bridesmaid, so they won't have anything to compare you against."
She grinned and punched me, which caused Isabel to laugh.
"Oh, do you think that's funny?" I teased as I rubbed my arm where Ally had punched. "Well, how funny is this?' I growled in my best monster voice as I snatched the kid away from Ally and started to tickle her.
When we finally calmed down, Isabel's silky brown hair had fallen out of the braid I was sure it had taken Ally about 15 minutes to do. Our little girl was just jam-packed full of energy. Ally sighed as she took her away again. "I'll have to fix it in the car," she groaned.
"Sorry," I said and kissed her on the cheek. "Now let's go. It's Dez and Trish's wedding. We can't be late."
oOoOoOoOoOoOo
Later that night, as I drove home with a sleeping daughter in the back and a sleeping wife next to me, a song came on the radio. I was mentally criticizing the high voiced teenager, when I realized it was me. I listened attentively as "Double Take" played through the speakers. It seemed so long ago that I had stolen Ally's song and made my first video.
"You've come a long way since then, haven't you?" a voice beside me said.
I looked to my right to find that Ally wasn't asleep, but gazing at me with her big brown eyes.
"Yeah," I agreed.
"Guess your dream came true, huh?"
"I guess. But that wasn't my big dream." I took her hand in mine and ran my finger over the diamond ring.
"Really? Did that dream come true, too?" she asked inquisitively.
I pulled up in front of our house and paused for a moment. Then, I leaned over a kissed her. I hoped she got what I was trying to tell her.
When we broke apart, I grinned at her and said aloud, "It sure did."
Well, there's the end. No more to come. I'm kind of sad because you guys liked it so much, but I'm satisfied. I really hope you approve of my ending. Please review!
