Chapter 8: The Beginning
I nervously took my father's arm as he walked me out into the backyard at my in-law's estate. It's okay to call them in-laws at this point, right? We walked across the yard and onto the pink rose petal make-shift carpet as peacocks wandered around in the flower jungle my mother-in-law had created. It was absolutely wonderful. I looked out at the crowd and could only see one face, George.
With my father keeping me steady, which I was thankful for because whoever decided a backyard wedding would be a great idea in these heels needed to be shot. As I thought that I recalled, it was my idea. Well, shoot me now.
George was the most handsome I had ever seen him in his white tux. I was so against white, but now seeing him in it, he looked like every prince charming I had ever read about. He had a light pink rose on his lapel, and his green eyes drew me in the closer I got. Everything else around me was a blur of faces and people. I couldn't believe

Best Days Ever Chapter 1: My First Best Day Ever
It was the best day ever. Or so I thought at the time. Just like our first date, George took me sailing. He had a picnic of delicacies set up for us. Wine and cheese with fresh fruit, oh, and those amazing crackers I could never get enough of. It was the perfect weather for it, just enough wind without overdoing it. The breeze kissed my skin, leaving goosebumps. I couldn't help but feel as though it were the best day ever. And he said all the right things, looked at me with those eyes, green my favorite color, that seemed to sparkle just so in the sunlight. I was a girl in romance heaven as he fed me grapes.Yes, literally, just like in those scenes where the queen is fanned by her subjects and fed grapes. I was his queen, and I chuckled a little at the thought of it. Just when I thought it couldn't possibly get any better, I dreamily opened my lips to another grape and felt something cold, hard, and much thinner than a grape. George laughed softly as my lips cl
Best Days Ever Chapter 2: We're made for each other
Everything was coming along for what was to be my second best day ever, my wedding day. Some say how stressful and overwhelming it can be, but I was hoping to add it to my list of best days ever. Here I was with my best friend at our favorite tea shop; we prefer tea over coffee just to be a little eccentric in our own way. We had just finished a hot yoga class, so naturally, we ordered iced herbal teas."I'm so surprised at how well your wedding planning is going. You just make it seem so easy," Trinity was saying. I finished several gulps of my refreshing tea before responding."It does help to be marrying my childhood sweetheart. I've been dreaming and planning this for years now. Making it a reality is coming really easy because of that.""True. It still feels sort of surreal.""Also, it helps that his mom is picking up most of the loose ends like seating arrangements and her god awful forest of f
Best Days Ever Chapter 3: Anxiety Comes with Weddings
The next day at my fitting, the designer said I had gained a couple of centimeters in which I would still fit in the dress, but it would be a tight fit. He suggested I try to lose a pound or two but was sufficient with my fitting and said he would make a couple of small adjustments just in case and wrap my dress and the maid of honor's dress and have them ready for pick up the next day.Our brunch went well and almost qualified as best day number two, but I was so anticipating the wedding day to take that spot it overshadowed the idea that the brunch could. It was called the bridesmaid's brunch, but my mother and soon-to-be-mother-in-law were there as well as some aunts from both sides, cousins and a couple of female friends. It was a lady's event, and we had a blast. It ended with both mothers giving gifts to everyone. Spa day certificates from my mom, whose best friend owned a spa. And shopping cards, good for $1000 for each of us from George's mom, whose husb
Best Days Ever Chapter 4: Mental Overload
I woke up the next morning to my alarm. I was in bed. George had taken my shoes off and carried me to bed. I had slept through the rest of the night without so much as a stir. George's side of the bed was empty, and he had made it up around me before going for his morning run and heading into work. He, too, had scheduled his workdays to coincide with mine one week before the wedding. He would take two weeks off before beginning the intense run up the ladder his father had in store for him.I smiled sleepily before stretching and making my side of the bed. I went into the kitchen and poured a cup of coffee that George had put on before leaving. Then I went to work. I worked at a high-end fashion boutique where I was given the opportunity to sit in with the buyer and do a little bit of shadowing when business permitted it. Today was not one of those days. The fall season had been in full swing with a rush of customers sending assistants to pick up new wardrobe changes before th
Best Days Ever Chapter 5: The Talk with George
I didn't talk to George that night. I finished work and went home and made dinner with him. We talked about his day at work, my day at work sans the doctor call, and getting some new swimsuits for our honeymoon. He wanted to make a day of it. Saturday, we would carve a few hours to go shopping together for whatever we needed for our honeymoon.I didn't mention the baby to George as he made love to me that night. I thought about all those times we had made love in the past few months and how we were inseparable; we couldn't keep our hands off each other.I was trying to remember when I actually had my period last. The doctor said I was seven weeks along. So my last period would have had to have been at least 2 months ago. How did that not raise a red flag? I had thought it was related to stress. It never dawned on me that I might be pregnant. It wasn't in the plan. We didn't plan to get pregnant until year six.George not
Best Days Ever Chapter 6: George can Read My Mind
The next morning George woke me up with a kiss. He moved over my body and straddled me, and stared into my eyes. He was trying to read what was in there, and most of the time, he could, but I didn't even know what was in there. He dipped his head down and kissed me. It was a long kiss that had meaning behind it. Only I wasn't quite sure what the meaning was. He pulled my nighty over my head, leaving me in my panties.He kissed down my neck and between my breasts and kept looking into my eyes, trying to read my mind. Still getting nothing because nothing was in there but a jumbled-up mess. Maybe he could untangle it and then tell me what it was.He put a hand behind me and pulled my body up as his mouth claimed one, then the other of my breasts. I moaned, and he looked up again, peering into my soul. He dropped me to the bed and pulled off my panties. He pushed my pussy lips apart and dragged his thumb through my wetness and around my clit. A

We were given face massages and prepped for make-up, mani-pedis, and aromatherapy to help relax us before the events of the day. They worked on our hair and make-up interchangeably, and we were thoroughly
