A few days later, Lindsay and Natalie were directing traffic as her things were being moved into Randy's house. "This house is going to look great once you redo it." Natalie said as they did.
"I was thinking of putting the nursery right across from the bedroom."
"I think that is a great idea. That way, you can hear the baby with or without the baby monitor."
"I was thinking of keeping some of the furniture and making Randy a kind of man cave just off the living room too. So he can have his own space to relax that's not also his office."
"I like that idea."
Randy looked at Roman. "They'll have the whole house changed before long."
Roman laughed. "Yeah. But it's what you want because you want her to make this her home."
"Yes, I do." He smiled. "So I heard you bought Lindsay's condo and you're moving in with Natalie."
"Yeah." Roman replied. "We are actually going to combine the two condos together to make a bigger one. We are going to tear down the walls and make it one condo. I've hired an amazing contractor."
Randy smiled. "You're really serious about her."
"I am." Roman replied. "I didn't think or knew I could fall this fast for someone but she's amazing."
"Yeah, she's a great person." Randy replied. "And she does deserve happiness."
"I think so too. The whole construction will be done in a few weeks. So, I have to tell Natalie we have to stay at my house."
"You're keeping your house?"
"Yeah I am." Roman looked at him. "I have a lot of family. They will need somewhere to stay when they come visit."
"Alright." Randy replied. "Then I can't wait to see how the condo turns out."
Roman nodded. "I think I'm in love with her."
"Have you told her?" Randy asked him.
Roman shook his head. "Not yet. But I definitely plan to."
"Good. I think you should."
Roman nodded. "I'm more interested in the change in you. Engaged and having a baby."
He laughed. "What can I say? Lindsay is an amazing woman."
"Took you long enough to figure that out." Natalie said as they walked in the room.
Randy laughed. "Yes, it did but I have now. I was an idiot but not anymore." He wrapped his arms around Lindsay. "I love her and our baby."
"Good." Natalie smiled.
"Did you guys want to stay for dinner?"
"Sure, we can do that. If you guys don't mind."
Randy smiled. "Not at all. Babe, you and Natalie keep looking around the house. Roman and I are going to go to the store and get a few things. Anything you want?"
"Butter Pecan Ice Cream and some oreos." She replied.
"Alright." He laughed as he and Roman headed out.
Natalie smiled at her. "That man is so in love with you."
"I know." Lindsay smiled. "And I'm in love with him and I didn't think that would happen."
"I get that." Natalie replied. "It does seem to happen when you least expect it."
Lindsay looked at her. "Is that your way of saying you're in love with Roman?"
"I don't know." Natalie replied. "Maybe. I don't know."
"Oh you know. You just don't want to say."
"Do you think that's it?" Natalie asked. "I don't know what I'm feelings. I don't know if I can trust my feelings. It didn't work out too well last time." She sighed. "Maybe I am in love with him and I'm too afraid to say anything."
"You should. That man is so in love with you."
"Maybe I will." Natalie replied. "So are you going to keep me in suspense or do I get to know what my god child is?"
Lindsay laughed. "Don't you want to be surprised?"
"I want to know what to get you as gift. So, please tell me." Natalie smiled.
"Its a boy."
Natalie smiled. "A little boy. A mama's boy, I'm sure." She smiled. "I'm sure Randy's happy about a little boy."
"He actually wanted a girl. Said we could always try again."
Natalie laughed. "And I'm sure you will." Lindsay smiled.
"Dinner was nice tonight." Roman said as he and Natalie headed to her place.
"It was nice." Natalie replied. "So, the sale is final of Lindsay's condo?"
"It is." He replied. "And we will have to stay at my house while the construction is going on."
"Alright." She replied.
"Its going to be wonderful. Waking up to you in my arms every single day."
She smiled and kissed him. "I agree. And I can't wait for that."
"You better be careful. I could decide to never let you go."
She smiled. "I can deal with that."
He raised his eyebrows. "Really? So if I whisked you away and married you, you'd be okay with that?"
"Yeah." She replied. "I would be okay with that."
"Then let's do it. You and me fly away to Vegas and get married."
She looked at him. "Seriously? You want to fly to Vegas?"
"I want you. For the rest of our lives. And I want the whole world to know you're mine." He looked at her. "So, will you fly to Vegas and marry me?"
She couldn't help but smile. "Yes, I will."
He smiled and kissed her. "I'll book us a flight and we will soon be married." She smiled and nodded. She knew everyone would think it was fast but she felt it was right. That they were meant to be. She had felt that with John but she also had a bad feeling through their relationship as well. Like something wasn't right. But she didn't feel like that with Roman. She loved him. And she couldn't wait to be marry to him.
The next morning, they were on the plane to Las Vegas. They had told no one they were going to elope to Vegas. "You ready beautiful."
"I'm so ready." She smiled as the plane started to land at the airport. He smiled and kissed her. He couldn't wait to be married to her.
Once they landed, they headed to get their marriage license and then to get rings and everything else they needed for their elopement. Once they had everything, they headed to The Chapel of The Bells. He looked over at her.
"Ready?" He asked her. She nodded and they took their place at the front of the alter. He smiled as they did. She looked so beautiful in the simple white dress. They had chosen simple outfits and nothing too over the top.
"We are gathered here today to join in marriage Roman and Natalie." The officiant said as he started. "Roman, do you take Natalie to be your wife? To be faithful to her and love her unconditionally as long you live?"
"I do."
"Natalie, do you take Roman to be your husband? To be faithful to him and love him unconditionally as long as you live?"
"I do." She replied.
"The rings." He said taking them from Roman. "The ring is a visible symbol of an invisible bond. It has no beginning or end." He looked at Roman. "Roman, take the ring and place it on Natalie's hand and say, with this ring I marry you and join my life with yours."
"With this ring, I marry you and join my life with yours." Roman said as he slid the diamond eternity band on her hand.
"Natalie." The officiant said handing her the ring.
"With this ring, I marry you and join my life with yours." She said as she slid the plain platinum band on his hand.
"By the power vested in me, I pronounce you husband and wife." Roman smiled as he leaned in and kissed Natalie. They signed the marriage license with the officiant and then headed toward the hotel.
