Chapter Seven: A Perfect Plan?
....to not tell her at all.
"Yes that was perfect, the girl was only in town for what a week, I could easily sneak out to dinner with her without Lucy knowing. But then again wouldn't that be like cheating. No, you idiot, I'm not dating her. I am completely innocent I mean I am only saving Lucy and me from another fight. Jewelry does work but hell its expensive. I can't afford a new pair of earrings every week."Thought Kevin to himself.
And it was settled, After much debating with him self, Kevin decided that not telling Lucy was the best way. He thought it would do know harm to have dinner with her once, but will it have harm. Though he slept in a twin bed he slept easily thinking he had just solved all his problems.
The next morning things slowly went back to normal. Lucy woke up before everyone so that she can prepare the final touches to everything before heading to church. She was in her office at six when a knock on the door was heard. She got up wandering who would come at such a time. She opened the door and it revealed a dozen red roses, a heart shaped box of chocolates, and most importantly a pair of gold earrings. Lucy stood there in shock at her husband's romantic surprise as a clueless and sleepy Kevin headed down the stairs. Seeing everything sunk in the events of yesterday into Kevin's head, leaving him just as sleepy only not shocked. He put on evil grin that told Lucy to not underestimate him again. Lucy hugged him and they brought the things inside. After their love feast Lucy got up to call the kids while dressing Jennie and taking out Josh's clothes Lucy told Kevin, "you really didn't have to do that, I mean we argue all the time, its not that big of a deal" "Yeah I know its just that well we argued over such a stupid thing and I was the reason it even started."
"What was it you wanted to tell me, you had something on your mind last night I could tell. Remember you said we would talk about it tomorrow."
"Oh yeah that well, that is why our fight was so stupid I really had nothing to tell you but instead of just saying so, I let the thing grow into an argument." said Kevin in a stern but shaky voice.
"Okay, well Jennie is dressed so why don't you go check up on Josh and we will be on our way."
"Sure"
Kevin walked into Josh's room and saw that the young boy managed to dress himself and was now putting on his shoes. He walked into the room and told Josh to be down stairs in about 15 minutes. The family gathered and headed to church happy for now.....
