Chapter 76

Meredith walked into the chapel, Tyler not too far behind. The overhead bell rang and the clerk came out, a smile on his face.

“Somethin’ I could help you two with?”

Tyler reached out for her hand and squeezed it. “We were wondering what we would need to do in order to get married today.”

The clerk explained the process, that they would need the names of their parents, their driver’s license, and their social security cards.

“What if I was a ward of the state, and I don’t know who my biological parents are?” Tyler asked softly.

“That’s fine. If you don’t know, you don’t know. Just fill out what you can.”

They filled out the information and forked over the cash that was needed.

“Do you have rings?” he asked.

They looked at one another. This was something they had forgotten.

“We don’t, but we have something that’s a little more us,” Meredith smiled.
