John's POV
Monday, June 11
I woke up and sat up slowly. I got up and went to the bathroom, where Claire was leaning over the toilet.
"Claire,"I asked,"Are you okay?"
She looked up at me and smiled.
"Yeah,"She said,"Just morning sickness."
I got a rag out of the bathroom closet, wet it, then handed it to her. I held back her hair as she threw up once again. She flushed the toilet and I helped her up. She put the tag on her head as she lied down on the bed in our room.
"I'm sorry,"I said.
"For what?"
"Doing THIS to you,"I laughed.
"It's okay John."
"Why didn't you wake me up?"
"You don't want to see me puke."
I lied down next to her.
"You okay,"I asked again.
"Yeah. We should talk about the wedding."
"Like what?"
"Where to have it."
"Where do YOU want it?"
"The Grand Canyon,"She joked.
"Hmm..,"I started,"What about...Niagara Falls?"
"That's a great idea!"
"Seriously?"
"Yeah. Just think about it. It'd be so beautiful."
"Okay..Niagara Falls, here we come...I guess."
"So..who should we invite?"
"Everyone,"I said,"Well, everyone we know."
She smiled and giggled.
"Brian will be best man,"I said.
"And Sammy can be a bridesmaid,"She said.
I kissed her head.
"I'm gonna go check on Sammy,"I said.
"Okay."
Sammy was lying on her bed, reading a book. She looked up at me.
"Hey John,"She said.
"Sammy,"I asked,"Have I told you about the wedding yet?"
"No."
"It's on August third, Claire's eighteenth birthday. At Niagara Falls."
"Cool."
"And Claire wants you to be a bridesmaid."
"I'd love to!"
"Good. I'm going to Claire's Grandparent's house to talk about the wedding. Take care of Claire for me, okay?"
"Okay,"She said.
I left and went to Claire's Grandparent's house. Her grandmother, Sally was out shopping, so I talked to her grandfather, Bennett, or Ben.
"We want to have the wedding at Niagara Falls,"I said,"If that's possible."
"Of course,"He said,"Do you know how many people you want to come yet?"
"It probably won't be very big. Just a few close friends and family."
"All right,"He said,"Tell me when you're sure."
Claire's grandparents have loads of money, more than her parents, and have agreed to help us with money for things.
"Are you planning a honeymoon,"He asked.
"Not yet. I want to surprise her."
"Any thoughts?"
I told him where I thought Claire would want to go most.
"I think that can be arranged,"He said.
"Really,"I asked.
"Of course. We can arrange plane tickets and reserve a hotel."
"Thank you!"
