Chapter 15
Standing at the meeting place thinking of her best friend Amber couldn't help but get nervous. It's not that she was scared of Autumn, rethinking that thought, ok she was scared of her, but that wasn't the reason she was nervous. Amber hoped and prayed that her friend would be open to the thought of a truce. Not only because she missed her but because she wanted to be a part of her God child's life. Autumn didn't even have to ask the girl for her to know that's what the woman wanted, after all they had discussed it for years growing up. The out of nowhere Autumn flamed in looking very sick. "Wow" she said as she tried to steady herself. Seeing the woman's distress she immediately ran over to her. "Sorry but I've been a bit nausea now in days" she spoke as she made her way to the bench and sat down. Autumn was the first to speak "So how are you doing?" she asked giving the girl a loose hug, not wanting to vomit on the her. "I'm doing good" the girl said returning the hug, careful not to cause her friend more discomfort. "So" she continued "I hear several congratulations are in order. One for your up and coming wedding, that I will be attending by the way and your little bundle of joy" she finished patting the woman's stomach lightly. "Hey he or she isn't causing this lady any joy at the moment." Looking down at her stomach she added "Making me nausea is a good way to get yourself grounded." This made both girls laugh, Autumn not so much so. "But seriously, thank you. I'm glad that you decided to come. I know it must be hard for you seeing as how you hate the man I'm marring." Sensing how sad her friend sounded at her last comment she responded with "Hey if you love the guy, then I will learn to deal with him." This made the Autumn smile.
After chatting for a little while longer, Autumn decided that it was a good time to bring up the truce. "Listen you know how much I love and miss both you and Chris. And we all know how much Wy loves his brother, so we're offering a truce." Amber was shock. She couldn't believe her ears. "That's amazing, so do Chris and I" Hearing this gave Autumn even more hope. "Are you serious?" "Yes we worked out some of the terms last night" "So did we". Both girls laughed and talked about what they said to the guys, they almost said the same exact things. "OK" Amber said jumping to her feet. "I'll go get Chris and you go get Wyatt" she finished helping her still sick friend to her feet. "Ok, and we'll meet back here in an hour?" Autumn added once she was steadied herself again. "Sounds good" giving each other another hug the girls went to collect their respective men.
Once Autumn reached Wyatt she informed him of his brother's wiliness to reach a truce. Wyatt listened to her with great enthusiasm. When the woman was done he finally had a chance to display his happiness. "I can't believe this. After all we went through Chris seriously wants to reconcile with me. How did I get so lucky?" she finished pulling his fiancé into a hug. "Careful, nausea pregnant lady here." Stepping back abruptly Wyatt apologized and continued " I'm finally going to get my brother back. When do they want to meet us?" "In one hour, do you think you can wait that long" Autumn answered back with a laugh watching her husband to be act like a child once again. She smiled at him and hoped that nothing would ruin his happiness.
Amber stood there filling Chris in on the conversation that went on between herself and Autumn. She could see the hope reforming in his eyes. He was ecstatic that his brother was willing to work with him. In fact the boy was so stunned that he was in denial for a little while, when he realized that this wasn't a dream or one of Wyatt's tricks, he felt as if he could fly. This was what he had been waiting for, for almost a year now. He immediately asked "Well when do they want to meet" "In a little less than an hour" she responded. He grabbed her and swung the girl around in his arms, completely taking her by surprise. She hadn't seen the boy this happy, ever. Chris spoke up again, gently putting the girl's feet back on the ground "I don't believe this, I'm finally going to get my brother back." He then gave the girl a kiss on the lips followed by a hug. Warm in his embrace she rested her head on his shoulder and hoped nothing went wrong during the meeting, because it would truly cause Chris to go insane.
