“Aw, honey,” Mom says, when she notices my tears.
“Aw, love,” Charlotte echoes.
“Sorry, I’m just happy,” I say, wiping my eyes.
Mom looks between Charlotte and me for a moment, before smiling and saying, “I’ll give you two a minute.”
When Mom leaves, Charlotte embraces me and nuzzles her nose with mine. “Thank you. For the party. The gifts. The song. For our family and our whole life together. Thank you, thank you, thank you. It’s all because of you. You’re my knight in shining armor.”
“You’re my princess. My queen. My unicorn.” I smile and softly sing the last lines of “All Strings Attached”: “Gotta love me some Charlotte McDougal. Happy birthday, babe. Hope you’re having a blast.”
Charlotte laughs through tears. “I am. Not just today. Every day.” She sniffles. “I love you, Auggie.”
“I love you, too. I always will. Forever and ever.” I slide my fingertip underneath Charlotte’s chin. “And they lived happily ever after.”
