Chapter 02
ADAM'S P.O.V
Eventually, much to my relief the ducks departed mine and Julie's apartment, don't get me wrong, I love the ducks, they are my family, but God, could they be annoying sometimes. It reminded me why I asked Julie to move out of the dorms with me those 2 years ago. I closed the door behind Guy and Connie and let out a relieved sigh, but then immediately remembered what a state the apartment was in. Julie was sprawled out on the sofa, with an ice pack balancing on her forehead.
"How you feeling"? I asked, nudging her so she'd sit up a little, for me to sit and her head rest in my lap.
"As though I drank too much last night". She told me.
"You never learn do ya". I gloated a little.
"I only drank the same amount as you".
"Yeah, but I can obviously hold my drink a lot better than you". I teased.
"If I had the energy to hit you, believe me, I would". She cautioned me.
They were the last words I heard, as we drifted back to sleep, only to be awoken, by the rain thudding against the window. When it rained in LA it truly rained, I had seen it rain a total of 10 times, throughout my 3 years here. Just as we were watching the rain roll down the window panes, the phone rang. Julie leant forward and answered it.
"Mom, hi". She said as cheerful as she could manage, though I could tell by her face she wasn't exactly ecstatic by who the caller was, and who could blame her, her mom had never really approved of her moving in with me at such a young age. "No, I won't be coming home straight away". I heard her mom's voice ask her why. "Because I'm going to the Olympics".
"WHAT"? I heard her mom scream.
"I said I'm going to the Olympics". Julie confirmed. "Yes with the ducks". I could tell she was getting angry. "Stop it mom, I don't want to hear anymore, look, feel free to call me back, WHEN you can actually say something nice about the ducks. Bye". She put the phone down, and collapsed back into my lap.
"Let me guess, that was your mom". I tried lightening the mood.
"Why can she not accept, that I've found happiness on my own. Every time she calls, it's to tell me about some friend of her's, whose son is back in town and she thinks we'd make a brilliant couple, or with gossip about my old friends from school, whose got married and whose having kids, I mean it's so, ugh". She said. "I mean so what, I'm 20 years old, completing college, living with my boyfriend, no plans to become partners in 'daddy's business', not married, no kids, no 20 year plan, play hockey with guys". She was going to carry on until I cut her short.
"Sweetie, you have to stop letting this get to you, I can tell every time she's called, because you get yourself into such a state about everything, I mean look at you, she gets you questioning everything you do". I stroked her hair.
"I know, but why has she got to be that way, I mean God, probably the only reason I'm semi normal is because of my dad, he calls once a week to check that I'm ok, she calls once a week to tell me about what's going on between her and her circuit of friends".
"You have to let this go, it'll end up eating you away, you'll end up like her if you don't". I joked.
"Adam, that is not funny". She tried to be serious but soon a giggle escaped her lips.
"Look, she just wants the best for you, put it down to motherly love".
"I got what's best for me, why can't she just see that"? She asked. "And how do you do that, see both sides to everything"?
"Let's think of it as a special power". I laughed.
"C'mon, let's get out of here before she calls back". She jumped up, grabbing my hand and dragging me across the hall to Connie and Guy's.
After practice a few days later, we were all teasing Coach Bombay about this being his last day of freedom, he simply replied by smiling and telling us that he would happily swap his freedom for Casey any day. We had originally planned on giving them stag and hen nights, but they both decided that they wanted to spend the evening having a quiet, romantic meal before Casey came to our place for the night. I was to spend the night in Connie and Guy's spare room, whilst Casey was to have our spare room. I didn't really understand why I had to leave the apartment, but I kind of figured that they'd end up having a girly night in and Connie would end up staying over on the couch or something.
"Adam, you coming over tonight"? Charlie whispered in my ear.
"Huh, what"? I asked.
"Since I'm staying at my mom's and Coach Bombay's tonight, I've planned for a little surprise get together for after he comes back from the meal".
"Since when were you staying at Bombay's"? I asked.
"Since I'm the best man". He hissed, then immediately began talking about practice as Bombay and Orion passed us.
"Hold up, I thought you were giving you're mom away"? Guy said from behind.
"I am, you guys have really got to keep up, see Coach asked me first to be best man, but then my mom asked me to give her away, but now Jan is coming out and my mom told me I'm to pretend to remain best man so that when Jan comes we can swap duties, so I can give my mom away and he can surprise Coach". He quickly caught us up. "So are you in or what"?
"Yeah, why not". I replied simply.
That night, me and Guy left the apartment, just as Casey was entering it, she kind of knew about the little surprise we had incorporated, hence the reason why Coach Bombay picking Charlie up from the dorms whilst me and Guy let ourselves and the remaining ducks in with her key.
"Hi you guys". We were greeted by Casey, just as I began opening the door.
"Hi, good luck tomorrow". I gave her a quick hug and a peck on the cheek, followed by Guy, before leaving quickly for our ride with the guys.
"Thanks". I heard her call after us.
Casey had been somewhat a mom away from mom to us all, me more than others since me and Charlie seemed more like brothers these days than best friends, in fact she had been the one to encourage me to ask Julie to move in with me and in return I had dropped a few hints along with Charlie, to Coach Bombay about him proposing to her.
JULIE'S P.O.V
"Hey girls". Casey walked in, just as Adam and Guy left.
"Hi". I replied, as I reached in the cupboard for some wine glasses.
"So, you nervous yet"? Connie asked.
"A little". She admitted.
"Just think, this time tomorrow you'll be Mrs Gordon Bombay". I reminded her.
"Any last requests"? Connie joked.
"Nope". Casey smiled as we all headed to the lounge with our glasses full of wine and a bottle to top ups.
"So have you and Gordon got any plans made"? I asked, starting a conversation.
"Not in particular, I mean there's the Olympics, but we've both mentioned that we'd like to foster children". She answered.
"ARE YOU CRAZY"! Connie exclaimed. "You're actually willing to take on dysfunctional kids".
"They won't be dysfunctional children Connie, they will be children who haven't got homes". Casey corrected.
"Anyway, they would do a good job with problem kids, just look at how they've coped with Charlie". I laughed and was quickly joined by Connie and Casey. Luckily Casey knew we were joking, but she'd have been the first to admit that Charlie had been a bit of a handful when we first went to high school.
We chatted a little longer before putting a few films on. First we watched Forrest Gump and then since we were all fans of musicals, we watched AND sang along with the sound of music. When Casey had first moved here to be with Gordon, we began having a film night every week at Casey and Gordon's and it was then that we discovered each other's likings for musicals and tear jerkers.
So this is the end of this chapter. The next one will be the wedding. PLEASE R&R!!!!!!!!!!!
