The Courtship Of Nathan's Father

Chapter 11:

The End Of The Beginning Part 2

The three months leading up to the wedding had flown by. Carly was in her element, having taken on the job of planning the whole thing. They had moved Sam's things to the house, except for the bed, and Freddie had a flurry of activity at work getting things ready for the month long absence he planned to take after.

They left the bed At Sam's place because; well because they had a lot of time to make up for. Nathan had stopped calling Sam "Aunt Sam" and just called her Sam till the wedding, and then he could call her "Mom" like he wanted too. Sam and Nathan had become the "dynamic duo" of play. Sam found the more time she spent with him the more in love she became with him.

"Ok Sam," Carly smiled at her, "your bachelorette party will start at seven tonight, so maybe you should rest," and she winked at her friend.

"Carly, please don't tell me you got a stripper, I asked you not to," Sam looked at her.

"Oh did you?" she grinned at her, "I totally missed that. Well I think you'll be pleased with the men I picked out, besides the other women would be so upset without them."

Freddie and Nathan stopped by on the way home and told Sam goodnight.

"One more day till "mom"," Nathan said as he hugged Sam and gave her a kiss.

"One more day squirt till "son"," Sam beamed back at him.

Freddie loved the way the two of them got along, and did find that it turned him on to see Sam so maternal, who knew being "motherly" could be so sexy!

"Have a goodtime tonight babe and I'll see you at the altar tomorrow at ten," Freddie told her as he picked her up in a hug and planted a very passionate kiss on her.

"Please, small child and single lonely woman here, so stop that. Besides you can do that after tomorrow all you want," Carly joked, "Now I understand your best man is throwing you a bachelor party tonight."

"We're going to watch a "PG" movie and the gingerbread women are topless," Nathan smiled.

"Nathan," Freddie said sharply, "where did that come from? That's not an appropriate thing to say!"

"Grandma Benson helped me make them," Nathan said sadly.

They all laughed and Freddie hugged the boy and said, "Its ok dude, I'll talk to Grandma about it."

By eight-thirty the bachelorette party was in full swing. Sam had opened the gifts and most of them were things that would be very fun on the honeymoon. The ladies were having a great time when someone knocked on the door. Carly opened it and a large box was wheeled in.

"Well it has your name on it Sam, I guess you better open it," Carly smiled.

"Carly, strippers, really?" Sam asked.

Sam opened the box and found what looked like a huge boom box radio in it and a button marked "press" on it. She rolled her eyes and looked at Carly and pushed the button.

The song "It's Raining Men" began to play and the elevator opened and out popped Gibby, Nathan, and Freddie dressed in raincoats. Nathan took the front row and Freddie and Gibby stood in the back, and the trio began to dance.

Sam fell into the couch laughing, and all the women began to hoot and cheer.

As the men turned around, they threw open their coats and flung them into the crowd. Nathan then began to do some type of strut around the room, shaking every part of his body that he could shake. The room went wild. Sam found it almost impossible to breath, she was laughing so hard. Tears streamed down her face. Freddie came up close to Sam and began to gyrate in her face and she found that she could no longer control herself. She thought she just might wet herself. The song ended and the three men took a bow and retreated to the elevator and left.

As Sam walked down the aisle she was struck by how handsome her two men looked. Nathan had on a small tux and Freddie looked like the answer to a prayer. She smiled under the veil as she walked. It had taken her over ten years, a bad marriage, and an assault, but she had the happy ending she had so wanted all her life. She knew that finally love had found her.

"Sam, I was in a very dark place when we ran into each other again. You brought light and happiness back into my life. You accepted Nathan and me without question. I promise that I'll spend the rest of my life trying to give you back the love and light you have brought into my life."

"Freddie, I've spent my whole life with as a part of me. You were my first kiss and my first true love. When you came back into my life I was missing something. You and Nathan have filled the hole that was in me with love and I will spend the rest of my life giving you both all that I have."

"I now pronounce you man and…," the preacher said.

"MOM!" Nathan shouted and ran to hug Sam.

Everyone laughed and Freddie said, "Easy dude, I get first dibs today," he smiled and leaned into Sam and they kissed.

"Mom?"

"Yes son."

"How long will you and dude be gone?"

"A week."

"Mom?"

"Yes son."

"When will you adopt me?"

"As soon as we get back baby."

"Mom?"

"Yes son."

"Will you and dude bring me something back from the islands?"

"Sure son. What would you like?"

"A brother or a sister."

"I promise we will work on that the whole time we're gone."

"Mom?"

"Yes son."

"I love you."

"I love you too my son"
