Can You Feel My Heart: Chapter 21-Fly
We were all meant to fly, spread your wings across the universe it's your time to, it's your time to shine
"Goten! I need you down here!" Paris shouted from the kitchen. I believe it was the kitchen. After I talked to everyone we decided to have a dinner party and it was taken place in my pent house with Paris, since everyone knew where we lived.
I had just gotten out of the shower when I heard Paris shout my name from the kitchen. "Give me five minutes and I'll be dressed." I had everything laid on the bed I shared with Paris. I walked into our bedroom and put on my blue polo shirt and khakis
I know Paris needs me downstairs to help her out with the cooking, so I wanted to make sure that I didn't want to keep her waiting. "I'm coming, babe, I'm coming." I shouted as I walked into the kitchen.
She walked over to me and gave a quick kiss on the cheek, "So I need you to chop onions and peppers while the pasta is boiling."
"All right, did you buy some Jack Daniels?" I asked as I grabbed the knife and the cutting board.
"….No, was I supposed too?" She asked slightly uneasy since her and I decided not to drink anymore. The last day at our honeymoon is the last day that we are able to drink. We do not want our children to become alcoholics since Paris comes from a line of them.
I nodded my head yes, "Yeah, Rick asked me to get him a bottle of Jack Daniels. I'll ask Trunks to bring a bottle." She sighed of relief as I took out my phone to text Trunks to bring two things of alcohol.
"Let's get are cooking on!" She said smiling as she turned on the radio.
Paris and I started cooking around 2:30 since the party was going to start at 5:30 and it seemed as if minutes went by. We were laughing and acting like totally idiots having the best time of our lives. She made steak stroganoff along with some filet mignon and a side of mashed potatoes. Yes, we know that is not a lot, but Marron felt bad if we did all the cooking so she is bringing cupcakes. Rick also agreed with it and they are bringing a couple of sides dishes.
I smiled at her as she was brushing her hair once more, "How do I look?" I couldn't help but laugh at her.
"You look fine." I said giving her a hug, "I have been telling you that all day." She smiled at me and was about to kiss me until we heard the doorbell ring. "I got it." I said as I let go of her to go get the door. It is probably Trunks and Marron. I looked through the peephole and I noticed a familiar lavender haired male.
I opened the door and smiled when I saw my best friends. "Hey! I'm glad that you were able to make it!" I said giving Trunks a handshake. I would give Marron a hug, but she is carrying their daughter.
"How have you been?" Marron asked once she stepped into my penthouse. "I haven't seen you since you left for Spain."
I chuckled at her as I closed and locked our door. "Spain was amazing, the company is not the best, but Spain was beautiful." She smiled along with Trunks.
"Sorry about that, we didn't know they were going to do that." Trunks apologized. "Oh, also here is the cupcakes Marron made." Trunks said as he placed them down on the table. "They are really good."
"I'll be the judge of that Briefs." I mumbled before Paris came.
"Paris!" Marron said. She handed Michaela over to Trunks before she gave the red headed a giant hug. "I'm sorry I haven't talked to you recently work has been hectic for me." She apologized.
Trunks took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, "The aroma absolutely divine in here. What did the two of you guys make?" He asked slightly curious.
Paris giggled at him, "You can wait and see when I finally get to meet Goten's new friend." She said slightly sour. I awkwardly rubbed the back of my neck trying to ignore her statement. Rick and I haven't talked for about three to four months.
"I'm sorry, Paris." I mumbled even though it will take her sometime to let it go. "Rick also mentioned he has a daughter that is older than Michaela, so when the children get tired we can pull out the Jack Daniels."
"Yeah, I'm sorry about that too." Trunks said. "I forget Marron wanted to get rid of all of the whiskey in our house."
The blonde twenty-five year old rolled her eyes when she heard her husband say that. Before she could say anything the doorbell went off. Trunks was saved by the bell, literally. I went to fetch the door since Paris didn't know Rick.
I opened the door, "Rick, it is good to see you!" I said, "Here, I'll take these dishes thank you! Why don't you and your family come inside?" I suggested as Rick and his family came inside. "Trunks, Marron, and Paris I would like you to meet Rick and his family."
Rick shook everybody's hand, "It is nice to meet you all. This is my wife Olivia and my daughter Bella." He said as he pointed at them. His wife smiled and waved at the both of us and his daughter was a sound asleep.
Olivia had dirty blonde hair and blue eyes, she was barely taller than Marron. Their daughter resembled Olivia more than Rick did. Their daughter is adorable just like Michaela. I can't wait for the day Paris and I have children.
"Hi, it is great to meet you all!" Olivia said, "Our little Bella hasn't been feeling too well and Rick did not want to pass up an opportunity like this." She stated, "We apologize if we get your daughter sick."
Marron smiled at her, "Thank you for the concern, Michaela hasn't been sick just yet so hopefully Bella won't get her sick." She nodded her head at Marron. It seemed as if everyone was getting along just fine and I'm satisfied with that.
"Are you guys ready to get your grub on?" I asked. Everyone nodded their head. Trunks pulled out a capsule which was Michaela's high chair. I was surprised that Rick did not do the same, but Bella is still asleep.
Rick and his family are another pasta freak and I think that Paris will be gratified with that. The food looks absolutely amazing: spaghetti and meatballs, steak stroganoff, mashed potatoes, chicken parmesan, filet mignon and cupcakes for dessert. At first I thought were not going to have enough food because of Trunks and I, but he told me that he wasn't too hungry.
Marron, Paris and Olivia got their dinner first while Rick, Trunks and I got everyone's drinks and sat down at the table.
"This is a nice place you got here." Rick mumbled as he took a sip from his mountain dew, "Wish I was able to afford a place like this."
Trunks and I looked at each other and felt pity for Rick. "Don't envy our lives; you don't know what type of hell we have to go through." Trunks stated, "I mean yeah just because you are rich doesn't mean you are better than someone else. I bet your wife appreciates everything that you do for her."
Rick slightly smiled at Trunks, I guess that made him feel better, but it is going to take some time for him to get used to it. Marron and Olivia were the first to sit down, so Rick and Trunks went up to get their dinner.
"So, you think the therapy helped everything?" Marron mumbled as she placed her daughter into her high chair.
"Yeah, I think it did!" I said.
"I'm glad that it assisted you." She said. Paris had returned and I went up to get my dinner. I licked my lips because there were so many options and I wanted to try everything. So that is what I did and I have no shame at all.
I was the last one to sit back down at the table, I didn't mind it. I placed my plate on the table and I stayed standing. "Hey, I just want to say thank you to all of you. You have impacted my life for the better and helped me out when I needed you. I'm just thank you for all of you and I'm glad that we can be friends." I said.
Rick smiled and put his glass in the air, "To Friendship!" He said.
"To friendship!" Everyone repeated. I sat down in my chair that was in between Paris and Rick. I first tried the dish Rick brought and it was amazing. They were just as good of a cook as Paris and my mother. And to be honest that is saying a lot.
"So, you guys are getting married soon, that is exciting." Olivia said starting a conversation.
"Yeah, finally." Trunks joked around. I mean I didn't want to get married too young, I wanted to get married closer to thirty. I never told Trunks that, but yeah I made a promise to myself in high school when Paris and I got into a serious relationship.
I rolled my eyes at Trunks while Paris giggled at him, "Yeah, we have been together for a long time, I knew he was the one when I first met him." She said causing me to blush slightly.
"When did you guys meet?" Olivia asked.
"Our freshman year of high school." I said. "She made me nervous, but I knew deep down inside of me that I needed to talk to her."
"Why?" Rick asked.
Shit, I don't want to make Trunks sound like a manwhore, but oh well. "Well, I felt kind of lonely because Trunks was getting into all these short term relationships. But when I saw her she was an angel and she took my breath away."
"Thanks Goten." Trunks muttered harshly.
Everyone at the table couldn't help, but laugh at the statement that Trunks had made. It was true and I wanted to be honest with everyone. "I mean I felt lonely because I felt as if I was losing my best friend." I could see that his facial expression had dropped. I never told him that because I didn't want him to get upset, but Marron ended up telling him on accident.
"Yeah, I remember being told that, I'm still sorry about that." He apologized.
"And how long have you two been friends?" Rick asked after he finished swallowing his mash potatoes.
Trunks and I looked at each other and had to think, "We have been best friends since we were about five years old." Trunks mumbled, "We were always together and caused a lot of chaos when we were younger."
I nodded my head, "Yeah, it was pretty funny." I confessed.
The dinner party lasted for about three more hours. It was filled with laughter and stories told about our past. It was great, it was something that everyone needed. Just one day that they could hang out with their friends and just have a great time.
Rick and Olivia left first because they wanted to get their daughter back home in case she got Michaela sick. Marron told them not to worry about it, but they were playing it safe. I couldn't tell you when Trunks and Marron left, but it was late.
Paris sighed heavily before she flopped onto the couch, "That was great! I'm happy that I was able to meet your friend Rick."
I smiled as she snuggled up next to me, "Yeah, I'm glad that you met him too, he is a good guy."
"Yeah, he is and his wife is really nice, I think her and I could be great friends too."
"That is great Paris that is good to hear." I said.
She looked up at me and smiled, "Te amo." I don't know why sometimes she spoke Spanish with me, but I didn't mind it.
"I love you too, Paris." I responded as I gave her a kiss.
