"I hate this! I'm fat, I don't fit into anything and I'm hungry!"
"Just calm down Ms. Aggressive… We only have one more dress to try on."
"Well good… I'm just ready for this all to be over!"
"Calm Clare…calm…breathe and relax. Think about Eli."
"Not helping!"
"Alli! Don't tell her to think about Eli! She's really pissed at him right now!"
"Why?"
"He ate the last pickle! He knew it was mine and he ate it, right in front of my face to spite me!"
"Okay okay…don't think about Eli! Think about steak."
"Ahhh…steak."
I tried on the last dress expecting it to be a total flop like the last time. I didn't even bother to look in the mirror, I just walked out into the parlor and let Fiona and Alli see it. I'm just so ready to blow this pop stand. A look of excitement and thrill streak across their faces. Alli started crying and Fiona squealed.
"What?"
"Clare you look amazing! Look at yourself!"
I looked in the mirror and I saw what all the fuss was about. The dress was gorgeous and I looked gorgeous in it! It had an empire waist that flowed out. I couldn't get a corseted dress because I'm showing so this dress was perfect.
"I think this is the one…"
"Of course it's the one!"
The dress was off white with one strap covered in flowers. Along the waist there were more flowers defining it. It wasn't poufy but it was long. It was floor length. After I purchased the dress and the dress shop's associates took my measurements for alterations we went out to eat. I've decided not to stress myself out with all this wedding planning business so I've instead hired Fiona and Alli to do it. Well, I would have hired them if they'd accepted the money. I think they just like being able to plan something so they are organizing the entire thing for free. It's going to be two nights after the full moon. That way Eli and I have an entire month to be wild and crazy and human.
While they discussed plans I chowed down. Yes, I'm still a steak o holic, this baby has made me a red meat addict but I've also been having a hankering for pickles lately too. After eating they dropped me off at home. Eli wasn't home yet because the shop doesn't close until four so I decided to take a relaxing bubble bath.
I got into the soothing bubbles and the relaxation commenced. I was about to doze off until someone came and splashed water on me. I couldn't see anybody but I caught the scent quickly… It is the only other scent all through the house…besides mine.
"Eli you are so dead!"
"Ha ha ha!"
"You are being really immature with you new powers!"
"What's the fun of having them if you can't abuse them every blue moon?"
"Elijah Goldsworthy show yourself right now!"
"Or else what?"
"I command you to!"
"So now you are the alpha?"
"Eli seriously! Why are you doing this! I've had a horrible day! I forgot I was supposed to be mad at you for eating the last pickle on purpose."
He showed himself finally and as he was walking over to me I splashed him. He looked shocked. A water war started. By the time we were done half the water was gone so after he wiped the mess on the floor up, Eli ran me another bath and he joined me. Usually things would have turned sexual but today…we just talked. At least for a while.
"So you found the dress? I looked on the account and saw the purchase."
"Yes I did… but don't think you're going to see it until the big day."
"Yeah it better be a big day for what it's costing me. I think your friends are going this just to break me."
"They are not and you are a secret billionaire remember."
"Oh yeah… I am. Sometimes I honestly forget."
"How?"
"Because it doesn't really matter to me. How's the baby?"
"He's okay…he's mad at you too though."
"Oh is he now? Well…he's grounded!"
"Good luck with that."
"What can I do to make you forgive me?"
"Well… I don't know."
He turned around in the tub and I felt his hardness against my thigh. He started kissing me and caressing my body. He started kissing my ear and it made me laugh because it tickled. He chuckled too because I laughed.
"Am I forgiven?"
"Not even close."
Bathtub sex was certainly harder to achieve since I have a big belly blocking me from my man but we made it work. He spread my legs and put them over the sides of the bathtub. I kept myself from going underwater by holding onto the sides. He went in slow and steady, but once our bodies fell into a right pattern he sped up and I was starting to forgive him more and more the closer I got to ecstasy. He ushered me into bliss and I dragged him along for the ride. Around us…water was getting everywhere but we didn't care. My skin felt hot and even though the water was warm it felt cool against my skin after the orgasm hit. Eli and I kissed while we waited for our heartbeats to slow.
"Am I forgiven yet?"
"Totally forgiven."
"Good."
We cleaned up the water and we got redressed. I put on leggings and a night shirt since I was only going to be at the house. Eli, however, had an appointment with Adam and Bullfrog to pick out a tux for the wedding. I'm sure he will enjoy that.
Eli
"I hate this! I hate suits! I'm hungry! Why can't I just wear jeans and a nice shirt?"
"Because I'm not letting you get married looking like a tramp so just act right. There are only two more suits for you to try and then we can go out to eat."
"But they choke my neck…see? It's all tight."
"Yeah, you do have a fat neck and a big Adam's apple… I guess we can just have that altered."
"Dad... come on!"
"Eli I'm afraid I can't help you on this one. Even I wore a tux to my wedding."
"Uhhh fine… Bring on the tux."
So far all of them have been unbearable. Silk and diamonds and all that jazz. What does Adam think I'm doing? A Broadway number? I just want to get married! I put on the next to the last tux. It was classic black and white with a black tie and vest. I walked out and the two gents applauded.
"Dude, this is the suit."
"Son it's the suit. You look all grown up in this."
"Dad, don't get all mushy."
"I can't help it. Just yesterday you were a big headed kid and now you are a big headed man…getting married and having a baby."
"Dad…thanks I think?"
I hugged my father and he patted me on the back. I paid for the suit and that tailor got my measurements for alterations. After that I went out for drinks and a meal with them. Adam and my dad make pretty rowdy companions when they get together. After we ate I got home to Clare who was sitting up watching Twilight Saga: Eclipse and crying.
"Clare, what's wrong?"
"It's just not fair! Poor Edward. He tried so hard an…"
"Hey, you are supposed to be on our side."
"It's just not fair!"
I patted her on the back and tried to comfort her until the mood swing passed. When it did she dried her tears and turned the channel to True blood. Her mood had definitely changed because she went from crying for injustice to laughing at decapitation. I sat beside her on the couch and I dozed off listening to her changing moods. When I woke up later that night I saw that she'd snuggled up to me on the couch and put a blanket over us. I held onto her and kissed her forehead before dozing back off. Three weeks and it will be official.
Reviews please! Thanks!
