Cammie Morgan pushed through the crowd of people in the Gallagher Museum in New York City. "Cammie! Hey!" Cammie turned around to see her good friend and assistant Liz Sutton making her way through the crowd, towards her with several glasses of Champaign.
"What are you, a camel," Cammie smirked grabbing one of the glasses from Liz.
"I'm from Staten Island," Liz shrugged, "And the line at the bar is insane."
"I knew I should have hired another bar station," Cammie sighed swishing down her drink.
"Would you just relax already," Liz said taking away Cammie's drink and leading her over to a table where their co-workers Jonas and Macey where sitting, "The show is a hit, you should be celebrating!"
"Yes Cammie dear, quit your worrying and enjoy the party!" Macey said throwing her hands up in the air and smiling goofily.
"How much has she had to drink?" Liz whispered to Jonas.
"I lost count after 5," he replied.
"You know what, you guys are right," Cammie said, "We've worked hard and we deserve to enjoy this party!"
"Ex boyfriend at 3 o'clock," Macey said to Cammie as she took another sip of her drink.
Cammie spun around and locked eyes with her ex-boyfriend Josh Abrams. "What the heck is he doing here?" she asked worriedly turning back to her co-workers.
"Maybe he's not over you," Liz suggested.
"He's got a lot of nerve showing his face here after he…"
"Dumped you in an Applebee's," Macey, Liz and Jonas all said in sync.
"I wasn't going to say that," Cammie said giving them all dirty looks.
"Well you better figure out what you were going to say because something wicked walks this way," Macey said nodding her head to Josh who approached their table.
"Oh, hey Josh," Cammie said putting on a smile.
"Hey Cams," he said, "How've you been?"
"Oh, you know," she said making a motion with her hand.
"That's great," he said taking a sip of his drink.
There was an awkward silence for a few minutes until Cammie spoke up again. "So why are you here?" she asked.
"Well, I wanted to let you know that I get it," Josh said.
"Get what?" Cammie asked puzzled.
"I get why you focused more on your work than you did with our relationship," he said.
"You do?" she asked, still puzzled.
"Yeah, and I wanted to let you know that I'm okay with it," he said.
"So are you saying you want to get back together?" Cammie asked.
"What, no," Josh laughed, "No, actually, I'm engaged."
"Oh my gosh! Cammie's getting engaged!" Macey yelled, overhearing the conversation.
"Did I just hear that our hostess and museum curator Cammie Morgan is getting engaged?" the DJ said into the microphone as the crowd cheers and music starts to play.
"No, no, no, I'm not getting engaged," Cammie yelled as the music stopped and everyone turned and looked at her, "Especially to him. I mean, not right now anyway. Maybe, when the time comes." She trails off as everyone stares at her. "Umm, carry on," she said walking away as the music comes back on again.
Cammie's Apartment:
Cammie unlocked the door to her apartment and opened the door. She set her keys on the hook in next to the door, leaned against the wall and sighed as a knock came on her door.
"Bex?" she said surprised as she opened the door, "When did you get in?"
Cammie's younger sister Bex walked into the apartment with a huge grin on her face. "About an hour ago, they gave me the red eye to London for tomorrow," Bex said, "I thought I'd surprise you."
"You know I hate surprises," Cammie sighed leading her sister to the couch in the living room.
"Well, then fasten your seatbelt sis cuz' I've got a doozy for you," Bex said, the goofy grin still on her face.
"Well what is it?" Cammie asked.
"Nuh uh," Bex said shaking her head, "Drinks first." She got up and made her way to the kitchen.
"I have to work in the morning," Cammie said.
"C'mon, just one drink," Bex said shaking the bottle, "You know you can't say no to your baby sis."
"And you can never say no to anyone," Cammie said crossing her arms.
"Tight ass," Bex muttered.
"Slut," Cammie muttered back. They both glared at each other and then jumped into one another's arms and hugged.
"Gosh I've missed you," Bex said as they released each other and sat back down.
"So what's this big surprise?" Cammie asked.
"Well," Bex said, "I'm getting married!" She held up her hand, a glittering diamond ring sat on her ring finger.
"When did this happen?" Cammie exclaimed examining her sister's ring.
"Oh about two weeks ago," Bex said dreamily, "His name is Grant and we met on a flight to Rome and now we're getting married…in Rome!"
"Are you out of your mind?" Cammie said a bit loudly.
"He's the one Cam, I know it," Bex said dreamily.
"It's just…two weeks? That's not even enough time for a credit check!" Cammie said.
"Be happy for me, please," Bex said giving her sister a puppy dog face.
"Of course I'm happy for you," Cammie sighs, "So tell me everything."
