"What you thinking about?" he asked quietly as I snuggled into him in the back of the car. I smiled as he jolted me from my flashback. "You" I admitted. "The morning when you accused me of dating Ryan..." "The best and worst morning of my life" he groaned, kissing me softly. "Worst because, well, I figured you were dating Ryan, and the best because you finally agreed to be with me." "What brought on the Ryan thing anyway?" I asked, pulling away to look at him. "Oh man" he groaned. "You were sat with him at breakfast, he kissed you as he left. Just stupid things really." I nodded. "Plus I'd turned you away" I said. "Must be Ryan, right?" "Yeah" he said, laughing. "But now you're mine, future Mrs Good, and nothing is going to change that." "We're here" the driver said, stopping the car and opening his door. Jon kissed me quickly as his door was opened, holding my hand and pulling me out of the car behind him. "Jon!" I hissed, looking around and spying fans everywhere. He shook his head. "No Jord" he whispered, pulling me into his arms. "If we're doing this, we're doing it properly. No more rumours. No more Renee. You're gonna be my wife, and I don't care who knows it." He waved at a group of fans, grabbed my hand and pulled me into the bar.
"I love you" he whispered as soon as we were inside. He wrapped his arms around me and kissed me softly, then more urgently, pulling me against him. "Ladies and gentlemen" Hunter called. "Our loving couple have arrived, now we can start drinking! To Jon and Jordan!" "Jon and Jordan!" everyone called, raising their glasses. I pulled away from Jon and he smiled at me. "No going back now toots" he whispered, kissing me once more before turning me around to face everyone. "Speech!" Colby yelled, winking at me. I grinned. "The floor is yours" I said, stepping away from Jon.
"Damn woman" he groaned as the room fell silent. "Uh, ok, I'm not a man of many words, well, not many words apart from cuss words, so you'll have to excuse me. But that woman right there is my life. The woman I love, the reason I breathe. Like you guys, I only found out last night I was gonna be the guy lucky enough to marry her..." "You didn't know you were engaged?" Summer asked, raising an eyebrow. Jon shook his head, running his hands through his unruly hair. "Bad choice of words" he said. "Ok, I knew I was getting engaged, I just didn't know when. I bought Jord the ring for Christmas, and put it on her right hand. We agreed that one day, it would magically switch hands, and then she's stuck with me..." "It magically switched" I said quietly, waving my left hand at him. "And that's why I love you" he said, pulling me back to him.
"Now" he continued. "I know everyone was kinda thrown by this when they found out earlier, because of certain rumours. But, I can honestly say, right here right now, there has been nobody else in my head, my heart or my bed, for the past two years. So can we end that bullshit now please?" Colby cheered which made everyone else cheer too. I smiled as Jon put his arm around me. "Guess I should do this properly, huh?" he asked. Everyone looked at us again and I frowned. "Do what?" I asked, as he took a step back. He smiled at me then dropped to one knee, holding my left hand. "Jordan" he said. "I love you, so fucking much. I never ever wanna lose you, not again. Will you marry me?" "Oh gee" I said, pretending to think. "I don't know, I mean, a wrestler? What kind of career is that? Mum always told me to aim high. A banker, a prince..." "Mum also told you to follow your heart" a familiar voice said from behind us. "And we all know the only one your heart beats for is Jon." I looked at Jon and he grinned. "Surprise" he said simply. I glanced across at the doors and saw my mum, smiling through her tears. "Jord" Jon groaned. "Kinda getting cramp here. You gonna put me outta my misery so I can stand?" "Oh shit" I groaned. "Of course I'll marry you you dipshit!" The room erupted in cheers and laughter as he stood up and picked me up. "I love you" he whispered. "Let's go see mom."
"How?" I asked, sobbing as I threw myself into her arms. "You look so happy" she whispered, sobbing just as much as me. "I love him mum" I said, pulling back and looking at her. "I owe this to you..." "No" she said, pulling Jon towards us and hugging him too. "You belong here, with him. No more running, no more hiding. The secret is out now. Now you can enjoy being a proper couple, no more rumours. Just be you, ok? Promise me." Jon nodded. "No more hiding mom" he said. "I promise to forever show off your beautiful daughter and that rock on her finger that says she's mine." "The look in her eyes when she looks at you is enough to say she's yours" mum said laughing. "Now go, enjoy your night, mingle with your friends. I'm not going anywhere. I, uh, need to thank someone for getting me here anyway..." "No thanks necessary" Hunter said from behind us. "The reaction was priceless. I'm glad you could make it. Come on, let's go get some drinks." We all put our arms around each other and made our way to the bar.
