Chapter 2: Dinner

Edward

I woke up around eight thirty. I turned to see an empty side of the bed. I sat up for a few minutes before I head to the bathroom. I took a look around to see if she was in the room: but she wasn't. So I put my boxers on and head to the bathroom. I hope I didn't make a mistake; by asking her to marry me. That idea of making the wrong choice made me want to puke.

She wasn't anywhere upstairs. Did she fuck me and take off? It wouldn't be the first; I remember when I was back home, and I was with Kate. The first time I slept with her, she took off in the morning. This is what it reminds me of. I closed the door and used a wash rag to get clean since I didn't bother bring a clean pair of clothes. As I was about to swing the door open, there stood Makenna. She looked like she was awake for a while. When she saw me she walked closer to me and gave me a hug. That made me a bit wary. Why would she be up and walk quickly over to me?

"Well good morning, I didn't want to wake you, so I let you sleep later ," she said, as she leaned toward me and we kissed.

"Thanks, anyway I was worried that you left me," I whispered.

"Now why would I do such a dumb thing as that?" she kissed my cheek.

"I don't know, I just woke up," I cupped her chin with my hands.

"I went back to your house, and Jared answered the door, so I asked for a clean pair of clothes, but he followed me into your room. He closed the door behind me; the next thing I knew he was all over me, he tore off my clothes and the next thing I knew he had me up against the wall. Then he was undoing his pants and when I looked my blouse was unbuttoned, that's when I showed him the ring. He didn't seem worried, sothat's when I panicked and took off." She had tears in her eyes.

When she was tryingto tell me about him, she was clinging to me. I couldn't believe that he would try something like that.

"What, did Jared force you?" I yelled.

"Yes, Edward I swear on my grandmother's grave," she pulled away from me.

"I can't believe this," I walked away.

I went into her room and got dressed, then I walked downstairs and out of her house. I knew she was following. I got into my car and drove back to my house. When I arrived Jared's car wasn't there. I cut the engine and got out of the car. I slammed the door behind me, and walked to the front door. I unlocked the door and stormed in. No one was home. I went into our living room and waited for Jared so I could get his side of the story.

I was thinking about just going back to the states and not coming back. Maybe it would not be a bad idea. What if she's telling me the truth, what if Jared is telling you the truth? It's all what ifs! I want to hear both sides of this. Why Jared, of all people?

Makenna

I woke up around six fifteen beside my soon to be husband. I realize he didn't have a clean pair of clothes, so I got changed and drove over to his house to get him an outfit to wear. On the way I stopped for a bagel and cup of coffee. When I arrived I saw Jared's car. So I parked my SUV in the space where Edward normally would park. I cut the engine, and got out. I closed the car door and walked to the front door.

I only had to knock once. A few minutes later Jared answered the door. He gestured for me to come in. He asked me why I was here; so I told him, then he led me to Edward's room. But I didn't think he would have tried anything. He walked to the door and locked it.

He led me into the middle of the room. He sat on the bed. He pulled my blouse off and then my shorts. I pointed to the ring on my finger, but he didn't seem to worry about it. The next thing I knew he was butt naked. I think he wanted me to come over. I tried to grab my clothes, but he was on top of me.

I tried to push him off of me. But then I realized I was starting to like it. So I went with it. I did feel bad, I am engaged to his friend and I am fucking him. So I got up and dressed. Then I walked downstairs to the door. I flung it wide open and walked to my car. I was on my way back to my house and I was thinking why am I marrying Edward - it's because I feel needy and I don't want to be alone; on the other hand I am starting to have feelings toward Jared. Now what? God!

When I arrived back home, I turned off the car. Then I walked to the door and opened it. I walked up to my room. I walked past the bathroom just in time as the door flew open. There stood Edward in his boxers. I handed him his new clothes. That's when I lied to him.

I watched him walk into my room and slam the door behind him. I could tell that he wasn't too happy. He flung open the door and stormed out. I followed him to his car. I tried to stop him; but I couldn't. I think I fucked up everything that I hoped for. NOW what do I do?
