"What a long week this has been. All my classes went great and no one asked me on Tuesday where I had run off to. The amount of homework and assignments were nuts. To top it off mid finals are coming up, so the teacher's have been prepping us for those. There was new gossip mid week, at least the attention is off of me." I said over the phone to Nicky. " I am not big on gossip, but anyway I guess some young girl went out during the week, got completely wasted and was arrested for public nudity."
"That's crazy." Nicky replied.
" I know right. Anyway, it is Saturday afternoon and I am helping David get dinner ready for our guests. Dad's invited a woman friend over and her family."
"That's good, I will talk to you later then."
"Talk to you later. Love you all. "
"Love you too." She replied back, then hung up.
"Lily dear can you go set the table?" Asked David.
Davids POV I don't understand that woman sometimes. It is not my fault Rosie was the past and still is my past. She just doesn't understand that's why I never told Lily because it is not a big deal. I was moving on not wanting to be stuck with the past. The past is in the past and today is the present and Lily is my future. How can I make her see that. Who ever thought the past would find a way to ruin my future. Now I have been shut out of the bed and locked out of the room. Time keeps passing on and I don't even know how long I have been leaning against this door just waiting for her to let me in. I heard Dad come up the stairs, he walked by me and stopped at the closet. He reached in and grabbed a pillow and blanket then walked over to me. "your going to need these." He said as he handed them to me and headed to his room.Finally the thought kicked in she was seriou
Today to me was not only another day closer to the wedding day, but my bridal shower. We were now only a month away from saying I do, and I can't wait. I wasn't one for material things anyway but I guess that's what women do for those who are getting married. No men, just us women and maybe a few kids. Let the party begin I thought as I was ushered to a table on the far end of the room in between my maid of honor Nicky and my bridesmaid Chris. Great look at all those gifts I have to unwrap. Hopefully it won't take to long. I started unwrapping gifts, a kitchen aid, a coffee pot, wooden spoons, spatulas, mixing bowls, and Tupperware dishes. "Thank you you guys." I said to my future step sisters and syrup mother as they handed me more gifts. Coffee cups, glasses, a nice printed plate and bowl set with silverware from Nicky and Chris. Clothes baskets, bedsheets, crock pots, pots and pans, cookie sheets, cake pans, muffin tins, candles and candle holders. From a few other re
Here it is only a week away from the wedding day. The day I finally become the one and only Mrs. Lily Davis. Things are all in order, everything is all set up and booked. We have all the dresses, flowers and everything else you could think of. It is going to be perfect, the perfect wedding I have always wanted. The one I never thought I would ever have. That was until I met David. That's when everything changed. My life did a complete turn around for the better. Before David came into my life I was going nowhere. I was stuck in a slump that I couldn't get out of. I spent my days just lounging around in front of the television in pajamas eating junk food. I let my friends slip away. I was gaining weight. Before I knew it dad forced me to work. Now I am glad I did. If I hadn't worked that day I never would have met David. I wouldn't be as happy as I am today. I also wouldn't be back in school or continuing on with my dreams that were once los
Here we wait. I don't know how long we waited by the phone for the results but it felt like forever. I just couldn't get my mind off of it all. David tried talking to me to calm my nerves. He reassured me plenty of times, he offered to go for a walk with me to clear my head. I just couldn't relax and didn't want to leave the house. I was afraid of missing the phone call. He even offered to draw me a hot bubble bath, he was willing to do just about anything. I just couldn't let myself give in. I was still so pissed and I knew it wasn't David I was mad at, I just couldn't get it off my mind. Everything replayed in my head like a broken record. Why can't life Just be easy and kind to me? I should be thinking about David and how he feels about all this. Just as I had finally thought about finally giving up waiting, and try to put it all behind me, the phone rang. Please be the hospital, please be the hospital I thought. I have never been so excited for them to call. Just like David said
Six more days till the wedding I am more excited now than ever. I never thought it would come this quick. Before I know it I will be Mrs. Davis and we will finally be in our own house. I couldn't wait, I love Dad and all but these house guests he has now are driving me nuts. I am glad he is happy though. I haven't seen him like this in a long time. Dad told us the other day he only had a little furniture to bring in. He even had a surprise for us, he said It would be a wedding present and we were not allowed to see any of it until after we were married and ready to move in. Truth be told I am a little nervous, But at the same time I can't wait to get out of here. It is time to spread my wings and fly. I can't live in the nest forever. Besides, we will only be a few houses down. That and after we move out he will be moving his woman and her youngest in, although it seems like they already are living there, they are there everyday and night. The eldest will be getting her mother
The rest of the week went by pretty smoothly and very uneventful for once. David wasn't around much during the week, he was so busy trying to get work done, going to work and getting all his stuff packed up so it could be moved it before the wedding. It was his last full week of work before the wedding and then he is on vacation for two weeks. I still have no idea what we are going for our honeymoon no one will tell me, I am not even sure David knows where we are going. All I know is after the wedding and our reception we are going to spend the first night in our own home, we will then leave from there. Tomorrow is our big day we have been waiting for. I just finished packing all of our clothes for our trip, all I got out of Dad was to pack sunscreen, a swimsuit, bug spray, and a nice summer dress. Dad and the bridal party are in the process of moving our dressers and bed in to our house right now, then they should be starting on the rest of our belongings. We will only have a
I waited and waited for this moment to finally happen. Now it is my big day, the day I have been planning for months, the day I become Mrs. David Davis. In less than an hour I will be walking down the aisle in the backyard. I still haven't even gotten my dress on yet. I was so close to calling this wedding off because of my anger towards David for not coming home last night. My father however talked me out of it, Nicky tried talking me out of it. It was Dad who really calmed me down and explained things. He said that it has always been tradition that the night before the wedding the bride and groom were not allowed to see or talk to each other or it was bad luck. He said he spent the night before his wedding away from Mom also. I still didn't understand it all but maybe it's for the best. David finally showed up to get ready, how I wanted so bad to just go see him. But I knew deep down I had the rest of my life to spend with him, and one night apart won't hurt anyt
The reception turned out very nicely. Things were going great, everyone seems to be having a great time, they were dancing, eating, everyone seemed relaxed. We went with BBQ ribs and chicken with different salads and dinner rolls much like a spread you find at a summer BBQ. It wasn't a large selection but it was perfect for the time of year. It was a very nice day out and I was so glad I cancelled the hall and Church. It was a perfect day for an outdoor wedding. All thanks to Dad for offering and talking me into having the wedding here. The night was still young. Now it is time for the dollar dance. From the looks of this line it will be quite a while to get through it. It was fun though everyone lined up to dance with us. I had bills shoved everywhere in my dress, down my bra. About an hour later finally the last one in line was up and dancing. It was Chris I watched her as she walked over carrying a Paul with her. I was nervous yet scared at the same time. When she approached me s
