REGRETS
Thanks for the reviews of the last chapter!
Carebear: Thank to you, I updated this story while I was planning on writing the chapter 9 of Holidays!
Mandy: You're right about the babies being too young to grin. I guess I didn't see too many babies in my life! Sorry. About the splashing water, what I was trying to say was that the baby was doing it with his feet by moving or gesticulating…
Thanks also to Ghostwriter, Queen of Shadows and Melms213!

Wedding Day, Morning
"Shelby, would you stop being so nervous about it! It's making me feel anxious too. Plus, your hair won't be fixed nicely if you keep moving!" Jess says as she desperately tries to do something good with my hair. God I'm so stressed by the wedding. I look up at the clock, it's almost nine. In less than one hour I'll be Mrs. Barringer! I just can't wait anymore.
"I know, I just can't help it." And in addition to that, I need to see Scott. I didn't see him yesterday and this morning either. Luckily, I have my two little babies with me…
"Well, try to relax a little. This isn't the end of the world, it's only a wedding."
"I'm not stressed about the wedding Jess. It's just… it's just that I fear something is going to happen or… I don't know! Anything could happen!" I say pretty loud and continue chewing my nails. God, I went to the manicurist yesterday and it cost me a lost of money. They were fine until last night. I almost didn't sleep. Scott wasn't there and I just can't sleep when he's not in bed with me. I know I shouldn't worry that much but he went out with his guy friends to outlive his boy's life. I'm convinced they went in a strip club even if Scott told me he would never do that. I mean after what happened in both our lives…he just couldn't, could he?
"Yeah, like what?" My little sister's question makes me coming back to the first topic of the discussion.
"Jess…please. Just do my hair and I'll be fine." Am I being harsh? Well, she's used to the tone; after all she's always doing the same with me. But I still love her very much.
"Don't worry, it's not like Scott would abandon you in front of the altar!" She says with a small comforting smile. She's so great, I take it she's taking her attitude from me…
"Who knows?" I can't help it, I just need to be sure. Maybe I should just go see if he's okay?
"I do. Look, he loves you and don't forget you two have two children together. And besides, he wasn't the one who was afraid of being with someone for the rest of his life." Right…I know he's just in the first room downstairs… I just have to go unnoticed and then everything should be fine. I know this isn't a good idea.
"Jess, people change."
"Yeah, well, Scott doesn't." People say that I can bring bad luck but it's only superstitions. If I go without my wedding dress, it should be fine…
"How long do we have until mom arrives?" Let's reckoning…
"Uh, a little more than twenty minutes."
"Well, we better work quicker." Okay, twenty minutes… Jess takes five minutes more, and then I tell her I need to be alone for a few and I go see him. We'll have ten minutes at least…
"I would if you weren't that agitated big sister."
"Then I'll be calmer, little sis."
Five Minutes Later
"Scott, open the door it's me!" I whisper as I am on the other side of the room where he's supposed to get ready. I hope he's here…
"Shel?" God, I love him so much!
"Yeah, open quickly!" I whisper a bit louder. I just want him to do it before someone I know notices me here. Jess or mom would kill me…
"I can't."
"Why not?"
"It brings very bad luck to see the bride before the wedding." And I'm the one being superstitious!
"Don't be stupid! I'm not even wearing my dress." I knew he wouldn't have even considered opening the door if I had wore my dress.
"You really can't wait until the wedding?" What? Is he stupid or what? We didn't see each other for so long and that's how he welcomes me! By letting me outside?
"No, it's really important. Open please." I urge with a sigh. God I just can't believe him! Ah finally, I see the handle being turned and the door opens. Scott appears to me with a big grin and his eyes are sparking with excitement. He looks just handsome. The epitome of the prince charming!
"Hello, beautiful." He greets looking behind my back to be sure nobody saw us. He pulls me inside and locks the door.
"Hello you." I say seductively, leaning to give him a kiss. "Good outfit by the way." I add with a giggle. Here he's standing in his boxers and without anything on his muscular tanned chest. God, he's soooo hot!
"Yeah, you think so? Maybe we should both go in underwear, it would be fun." He says with a sexy smile, taking me by the waist and carrying me to the sofa. "And we'll have fewer clothes to take off after for the honeymoon." He adds whispering the last sentence. I sit on his laps and kiss his lips soundly.
"I'm glad you're here."
"And where would I be? In case you have forgotten, I'm the one you're supposed to marry today."
"I just didn't know how your night of yesterday was or if you still wanted to marry me."
"Why would I change my opinion?" I just shrug in response. "So, that's all you wanted? Making sure I was still ready to marry you?"
"Um…yeah and the fact that I missed you."
"Good. I missed you too last night. The babies too. How are they doing?"
"They're fine and with Jess. And I'll better go before she notices I'm gone. She'll be able to kill me!"
"Oh, Jess as a killer…sexy!"
"Shut up!"He grins at me and I nudge hom in the ribs but not too hard.
"With a black latex outfit..." God, what a pervers!
"Scott! That's my sister you're talking about!"
"Will you do it once? It's one of my fantasies."
"Are you kidding me?"
"No! I would love to see you like that!"
"Never." Who does he think I am?
"Shel-"
"No."
"Okay, okay!" He gives me a kiss laughing into it. "You better go." He says kissing me again, longer this time.
"I know!" I jump from his laps and sigh. "I love you, see you soon!"
"Love you too! And don't be too late!"
"Very funny Scotty!" I say as I well know he hates this nickname. Before, when we still were at Horizon, it was because of that bitch of Elaine. Now that we both faced our pasts and moved on, it's only because it's making him feel like a little child. Only his mother is allowed to call him like this. But hey! It's my wedding day, I can have some privileges!
Next: The Wedding! Finally…
I'll post it asap… Have a nice Holiday!
