Chapter 40: Carrickfergus Castle (Back to Reba POV)

We made it to Papa Brown's and quickly found us a table for the six of us to sit at. I order myself some chicken strips with french fries and a 7-up. It looked the most appealing on the menu. Chibs sits on one side of me with Tig on the other and Happy sits across from me. I notice Kozik and Tig talking across the table to one another and lean over to Chibs whispering, "Who replaced the two of them? Why are they so cozy?"

Chibs shakes his head and quietly says, "We all talked while ye were sleeping lass. They seem to have chilled out. They may just be on their best behavior for ye though."

I eat a few of my fries and a couple of bites of my chicken strips before pushing my plate away from me. Tig looks over at me in concern before asking, "What's wrong baby?"

I smile softly saying, "Nothing. I'm just not hungry. The twins changed their minds about what they wanted to eat. I'm gonna get it to go though and eat some more probably later tonight."

Tig squeezes my hand under the table before saying, "If you're sure baby. Do you want some of my pasta?"

Shaking my head I say, "Go ahead and eat your food Tig. I'm fine. I promise."

He kisses the side of my head before beginning to eat his food again. Jax looks at me before saying, "Abel's missed you. Wendy showed him a picture of the two of you and his little face lit up. Are you excited to see him?"

Nodding my head quickly I say, "Yeah, for sure. I've definitely missed him. It makes me happy he lit up."

Jax smiles at me saying, "He really does adore you Reba."

I smile softly before saying, "I think he knows on a subconscious level how stressed I've been with everything going on. I hear babies are sensitive to that stuff."

Jax gives me another smile saying, "I read that too. I think it's true. He does seem more upset when Wendy or I are stressed out, but he is an emotional baby in general."

Lightly smiling I say, "I'm glad you're here Jax. It makes me feel better knowing I have more support."

Jax grins before saying, "I'll always support all of you. You're family."

After that everyone else finishes up their meals while I grab a to-go box to bring my food with me to Kaylee's house. We pay for all our food and Chibs leads us out the restaurant. When we make it outside Chibs puts his sunglasses on asking, "Who's ready to go and see a castle?"

I shake my head at my brother before saying, "Come on Chibs; just lead the way. I'm excited."

He hugs me then says, "Aye. Let's get going."

We make our way up to Carrickfergus Castle and when we get there I'm taken aback by the sights. It's a gorgeous castle backed right up to the water. It stands tall against the sky and is absolutely breathtaking. There are boats parked along one side for the water. It reflects against the water in a mesmerizing way. It's packed but still quiet in its own sense.

Chibs steps in front of us saying, "Welcome to Carrickfergus Castle. It's a sight isn't it?"

I nod my head quickly before saying, "Aye."

Chibs shakes his head at me saying, "Lass do ye want to go in or just look from the outside?"

I glance around like a child in a toy store before quickly saying, "Inside if we can. I want to see it."

Tig steps up beside me and grabs my hand saying, "Anything for you, love. Let's go."

I squeeze his hand with mine then grin over to him saying, "This place really is beautiful isn't it?"

Tig smiles at me before saying, "Yeah it is. Not nearly as beautiful as you though."

Heat rushes to my cheeks and I quietly say, "Oi. Hush you."

Tig shakes his head at me saying, "I don't think anything can compare to your beauty." He drops down on one knee in front of me and says, "We've been together just about two years. I feel like I've known you so much longer than that though. We've gone through so much in the past two years, and every single day, I'm still worried you might wake up and realize you are so much better off without me. I love you so much and I love our babies with my entire heart. I want to be with you now and forever if you'll have me. You're my light in the darkest times. You're the rainbow on a rainy day. You're so carefree, smart and beautiful, and you don't even know it. You don't believe that, but you should. I promise I'll spend the rest of our lives trying to prove to you how beautiful you are in my eyes. I will never stop loving you, and this is my promise to you. Will you marry me, Reba Telford?"

Tears began welling up in my eyes and I placed my hand on my growing stomach. I felt one of the babies kick me lightly followed by the other one. I looked around and saw a lady stop and take a picture of Tig on his knee in front of me. I brought my eyes back to Tig and looking into his eyes; I could see how much love was there. I wiped away a tear that slipped out of my eye and said, "Yes, Alexander Tig Trager. I will marry you."

Tig stood up from his kneeling position and kissed me passionately whispering against my lips, "I love you so fucking much Reba."

I kissed him back just as passionately saying, "I love you too Tig. Forever and always." He slipped the ring on my finger and I smiled down at it. I loved the green contrasting with the black. I loved how strong it made one feel while being feminine. I felt a little indention on the inside of the ring and I asked, "What does it say on the inside?"

Tig smiles softly before saying, "'Mo chroí agus m'anam.' It's Irish for 'My heart and soul.'"

I looked up into Tig's face before saying, "I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you."

Kissing the tip of my nose Tig says, "Me too, love. Me too."

Our little group clapped for us as did the few people who stopped and watched our engagement happen. The lady who snapped the photo walked towards us saying, "Comhghairdeas ar do grá. Guím gach rath ort ar fud an domhain. Thóg mé pictiúr duit, mar sin bheadh an chuimhne seo i gcuimhne duit. Ar mhaith leat an íomhá a sheoladh chugat?"

I didn't understand a word she was saying, so I looked towards Chibs who stepped forward saying, "Deir an bheirt acu buíochas a ghabháil leat as an bpictiúr a thógáil. Gabh mo dheirfiúr anseo, Reba, leithscéal nach bhfuil an teanga ar eolas aici. Tabharfaidh mé uimhir duit le haghaidh Tig. Tuigeann sé roinnt Gaeilge ach ní i bhfad."

The lady says, "Níl aon fhadhb ann. Tuigim. Is ainm dom Saoirse. Tá sé an-deas bualadh leis na triúr agaibh."

She smiles at us before Chibs looks at Tig and says, "I told her, ye'd give her your number since ye know more Irish than Reba here. She also says congratulations on the engagement."

Tig gives Chibs his phone number to translate for Saoirse and she sends the picture to his phone. We have Chibs thank her for us again as she says, "Tá an fáinne an-álainn."

The lady walked away and Chibs looked at the two of us before saying, "She said it's a very pretty ring."

I hugged my brother as Jax came up and pulled me into a tight hug saying, "Congratulations Reba. I can't wait for you to be around more often."

I glanced over at Kozik who was hugging Tig and then Kozik moved to hug me. He said, "I'm glad he's with you Reba. He's less angry all the time."

Happy pulled me from Kozik before kissing the top of my forehead and saying, "I'm so glad you're getting married."

I shook my head at the lot of them before saying, "I think we should probably head on to SAMBEL. Maybe that's just me, but it doesn't need to get that late."

Jax grinned before saying, "Yeah we probably should head out. I know they are probably planning another party."

Chibs grinned back saying, "Aye, they probably are."

Kozik chimed in with, "Also, I'm sure Gemma is going to love to see that ring, and I bet Reba's ready to see Abel."

I lightly hit Kozik before saying, "I can't help it. I know I'm pregnant, but that doesn't make the baby fever go away. Of course I'm excited."

Again probably not the best at Irish. I'm using Google Translate and will post the conversations here. Correct me on any of it if it doesn't make sense.

Comhghairdeas ar do grá. Guím gach rath ort ar fud an domhain. Thóg mé pictiúr duit, mar sin bheadh an chuimhne seo i gcuimhne duit. Ar mhaith leat an íomhá a sheoladh chugat? ~ Congratulations on your love. I wish you every success in the world. I took a picture for you, so this memory would remind you. Would you like to send the image to you?

Deir an bheirt acu buíochas a ghabháil leat as an bpictiúr a thógáil. Gabh mo dheirfiúr anseo, Reba, leithscéal nach bhfuil an teanga ar eolas aici. Tabharfaidh mé uimhir duit le haghaidh Tig. Tuigeann sé roinnt Gaeilge ach ní i bhfad. ~ Both of them say thank you for taking the picture. My sister here, Reba, apologizes that she doesn't know the language. I will give you a number for a Tig. He understands some Irish but not much.

Níl aon fhadhb ann. Tuigim. Is ainm dom Saoirse. Tá sé an-deas bualadh leis na triúr agaibh. ~ There is no problem. I understand. My name is Saoirse. It's very nice to meet all three of you.

Tá an fáinne an-álainn. ~ The ring is very beautiful.
