Chapter 4

Mike and I headed to his hotel room and spent the night in each other's arms. Grandma knew that I wasn't going to be home that night and she made sure that the kids were ok. Mike and I wanted to announce our engagement right away as we really didn't want to wait too long before we got married.

"Where should we get married?" Mike asked.

"Not on a beach." I answered.

"Ok. And I don't want a traditional wedding, it's just not me." Mike responded.

"What about the Sutter Home Winery in Napa?" I asked.

"You know, that sounds like the perfect spot. Now when are we getting married? Oh and you know I have to tell Vince before word gets out." Mike answered.

"I know. Call him now and tell him and then we can pick a date." I responded.

Mike placed the call to Vince and told him that we were engaged and to put it on the WWE website. Mike gave him my first and last name and spelled it out for him. After he hung up, Mike and I looked at a calender and picked our wedding date. We called the winery and we were lucky that they had an opening for that day. Once Mike and I were ready, we headed to back to my house so I could change clothes before we told my family about the engagement.

"Mommy, where were you this morning?" Tyler asked.

"I was with Mike. Why?" I answered.

"I missed you. Is it okay if I miss Daddy?" Tyler asked.

"Of course it's ok to miss Daddy. I wouldn't expect you not to miss him." I answered as I hugged him.
"Mom, what are we going to do now?" Kelsey asked from the doorway.

"Well, how about some good news." I answered.

"Ok. What is it?" Kelsey asked.

"Why don't we all go in the livingroom and find out." I answered as Tyler ran towards the living room.

"I know what it is." Kelsey responded.

"I don't think you do." I stated.

"You and Mike are getting married." Kelsey responded.

"How did you?" I started to ask.

"The ring on your finger gives it away." Kelsey answered.

"Are you ok?" I asked.

"Yeah. I like him. And maybe now we can get our own house." Kelsey answered.

"Good. It's in the works, sweetie." I responded.

After announcing our engagement to my kids and grandmother, we still faced announcing it to my parents and siblings. I knew that my youngest brother would approve since he was a huge WWE fan. The rest of my family, not so much. But I didn't care, I was happy with Mike and the kids were happy as well. We had Kelsey take a picture of Mike and I showing off the ring and sent it to my family.

"Are you going to tell your family?" I asked.

"Of course. They know I'm dating someone who isn't famous and they know you have two kids from your first marriage. They are ok with that. Let's just hope they are accepting of our engagement." Mike answered as he pulled out his phone.

While Mike talked to his parents and step-siblings, I received a few texts back from my family. As I thought, Mark was thrilled with my pending marrige to a WWE superstar. My sister, Annie was happy for me, Richard and Robert didn't say much but congrats. My dad was in shock and attempted to call me a liar. I knew it was my step-mother behind it. My mom responded with less than thrilling excitement. She knew I loved the WWE and she hated it and made sure I knew it.

"Well, they are very happy for us and can't wait to come out for the wedding. What are we going to do about invites and such?" Mike asked.

" has invites that we can make ourselves and pick them up in an hour or so. The sooner we get them done, the better. I mean we have a lot to do in a short amount of time." I answered.

"That we do." Mike agreed.

Once the invites were done, we picked them up and sent them out to the friends and family we wanted there. After spending an hour at the post office, I dropped Mike off at the hotel so he could get some things done, while I headed home to pick up Kelsey and Tyler. I bought them outfits to wear at the wedding since they were going to be our flower girl and ring bearer.

After I dropped the kids off with Grandma, I called some of my close friends and told them the news. They agreed to meet me at a local bridal shop as I needed to find a wedding dress in a hurry. After trying on dress after dress after dress, I finally found the one that was perfect for a fall wedding in the wine country.

As the weeks passed, Mike and I were busy getting everything ready for the wedding. Everyone who we invited was coming to the wedding and reception. A few days before the wedding, everyone arrived into the Bay Area. Mike and I decided to have a rehearsal dinner at a nice local restaurant two days before the wedding.

"Michelle and I would like to thank you all for coming out to help us celebrate our big day. We couldn't be more excited and and happy to share this with all of you." Mike stated before we ate.

That night we all headed up to Napa and got the rooms ready for the wedding. Mike and I had two rooms. One was mine for the night before the wedding and for us ladies to get ready in the morning. Mike had his own room as well for the night before. Then we had a suite for our wedding night.

"Mike, I wanted to talk to you about something that I just thought about." I stated as we were getting ready for bed.

"What is it?" Mike asked.

"Well, you're going to be Kelsey and Tyler's step-dad and I know that you are going to be a great father to them. But what about us having a baby?" I answered.

"I like that idea. So since we're getting married in two days, does that mean I don't have to wear a condom tonight?" Mike asked.

"Were you planning on doing something tonight." I answered as I climbed on top of him and started kissing his neck.

"Hmm. You know I can't resist you." Mike responded as he returned the kisses and rolled me on to my back. "You didn't answer my question."

"You don't have to wear one." I stated before he claimed my lips in a kiss.

That night we made love over and over again. I hoped that since I was ovulating, that we wouldn't have to wait too long before I would be pregnant. Once we finally fell asleep, I crashed hard and didn't hear my phone go off. Once we were finally up, I got in the shower and got dressed before meeting our families for breakfast. Tyler and Kelsey were happy to see us and Mike picked up Tyler in his arms and hugged him.

Breakfast was not the best thing in the world that morning as my mother tried to talk me out of marrying Mike for the hundreth time since our engagement. I told her that if it didn't work before, it's not going to work now. After breakfast, Mike and I spent the day with the kids.

That night, my bridesmaids and I stayed in my room, while the guys stayed in Mike's room. I kissed Mike good night and told him that I would meet him at the alter and I would be the one in white. It was a quiet night of watching movies and trying to get some sleep.
