"Not the father," Paul finished. 

Becca leaned back in her chair breathing a sigh of relief. Shawn cheered over the phone. This was exactly what they needed. She was ready now to move on and marry Shawn. She refused to get married in the dress that she had found now. She was going to be redoing everything now that they were doing a destination wedding. She was not going to let anyone ruin this one. 

"Becs," Marshall said. 

"I'm so thankful," she replied. 

"Me too babe." Shawn said. 

"Now to replan this wedding."

Marshall chuckled. 

"We got this. All the way Becs," Marshall told her. 

She nodded. Paul released a statement about the kid not being Shawn's child. They wanted to take the focus off of Becca and Shawn. They wanted Becca to focus on the wedding. She went to her office. She began looking into places to have the wedding. This one was going to be all about simplicity. She didn't want anything chaotically over the top other than the destination. She found a beach to have their wedding by that afternoon. 

It was still going to be a black and white theme

It was still going to be a black and white theme. She needed to basically start over from scratch since nothing was going to be the same. She looked at dresses for herself, the girls, and Chloe. It was a lot. They were going to be going to try them on again. She wanted something simple this time. She found her dress rather quickly. She loved it almost as much as the original dress.

Chloe's dress was just as simple but it was black this time

She planned on just having the guys in black slacks and a white shirt. She wanted everyone comfortable. She showed Shawn everything but her dress that night. She looked at him. He smiled at her. He was glad that she was back on track for what she wanted. The wedding was going to take place quickly. She had it set for six months out. 

"Shawn, what do you think of this cake?" she asked. 

"I like it

"I like it. The simplicity of this one is probably going to be way more memorable for the two of us." he said. 

She nodded as she curled up on the couch next to him. He smiled and kissed her cheek. She leaned her head on his shoulder. He watched what she was doing. She was going to have to be cautious about what she was looking at so he didn't see the dress. She sighed. 

"What's wrong?" he asked. 

"This is all set for April. Are you ok with that?" she asked him. 

"Yeah babe, that's fine. I mean if we could do it sooner I would. I just want you to have my last name and then we can get moving on this stepparent adoption."

She nodded. He rested his head against hers. 

"Plus we can get to work on having one of our own." he said. 

She chuckled and nodded. They were set to do an interview on Shade 45 about the whole thing with Celeste. He was a little nervous about it. He wasn't used to being in the limelight. He had to get used to it because of her being Marshall's little sister. She sat up and looked at him. 

"You ok?" she asked. 

"Yeah, this is just all new to me," he replied. 

"Trust me, I have tried to avoid the limelight. I hate every part of it. I know that Marshall loves what he does but I was the black sheep of the family. My mom had me ten months after Nate and Marshall is the one who took care of me. My mom didn't. It's why things are so strained with her. She never protected me."

Shawn nodded. He knew about the life that his future bride had dealt with growing up. He didn't like that she went through it all but she had proven life wrong by being the best mother she could be to Chloe and Axel. She even took care of both Chris and Shawn. Everyone was spoiled in the house by her. She looked at him. He leaned forward to kiss her lips. 

"I love you Becca. We are going to have an incredible life together," he said. 

"I love you too, Shawn," she replied. 

They went to bed. She snuggled up to him as they lay in their bed. He wanted to make sure that she always felt loved.
