February, Friday 19th

The next day after school, Pete made his way to his apartment to pack a few things before he drove to Addison's. She pulled open the door before she turned and walked back into her living room.

"Hello." Pete watched her before he rolled his eyes and closed the door behind him.

"Hi." She sat back down on the floor cross legged and picked up her books.

"Where can I put my stuff?"

"What is it?" She looked up at him.

"Just some clothes and stuff."

"I made some space for your clothes in my wardrobe. Put everything else in the spare bedroom, not that you can call it a bedroom it's so tiny."

"Great."

Addison glanced at him before she went back to her books. He walked into her bedroom to put his clothes away. "Need any help?" she called.

"No."

"Okay." She nodded. He put some clothes into the wardrobe before he carried his other stuff into the bathroom. Addison had made some space for his things in the bathroom as well and he put his things there before he walked back into the living room.

"All sorted?" Addison asked.

"Yep."

"Good."

Pete nodded and looked down at her. "What are you doing?"

"Studying. I have a test tomorrow."

"Oh." Pete nodded.

"There's some Chinese in the kitchen if you haven't eaten yet."

"Sounds good. Thanks."

"No problem." Addison began to go through her notes while Pete walked into the kitchen and took hold of a carton of Chinese. He leaned against the side as he started to eat and watched Addison in the living room. Neither of them talked as he ate and she studied.

After a while, Addison gave a sigh and closed her books before she began to gather them all up.

"Finished?" He watched her.

"Yeah, I can't concentrate anymore." She gave anther sigh and put her books on the table.

"I know I'm very distracting." Pete smirked.

"Oh, shut up," Addison mumbled and made her way into the kitchen. Pete rolled his eyes before he followed her and threw his carton away. She opened the fridge and scanned the contents before she closed the door then looked through the freezer.

"I would have left you Chinese if you're still hungry."

"It's fine. I don't want Chinese right now anyway."

Pete nodded and watched her. Addison shut the freezer before she opened the cupboards. "I've been thinking." Pete started as he looked at her. "About what we're doing here."

"Oh." She turned to face him. "And?"

"Well, I was just wondering." He looked back at her. "Because you want to pretend all this for our parents. Are we going to see other people? Are there any rules? Are we going to continue having sex or are we just living together?"

"Oh…erm…well…I hadn't thought about it, but I guess, I guess we can see other people." She shrugged. "We'll just have to be really secretive and if we're seeing other people there'll be no sex between us."

"Okay..." Pete nodded slightly.

"We'll just be living together."

"Yeah." He looked at her before he glanced down.

"What?" Addison watched him.

"What?" Pete looked back up at her. "Nothing."

"Why are you looking like that?"

"Looking like what?"

"Like that." She pointed at his face.

"I'm just looking."

"Hmm. Well, I'm going to take a bath then I'm going to bed."

"Okay." He nodded before he walked out of the kitchen. Addison left the kitchen as well and made her way into the bathroom. He sighed and walked into the tiny spare room. He opened his bag and started to take some things out. He looked around the room and wondered where to put them. There was very little space in the room and most of it was taken up by Addison's things. He sighed again and tried to find some space for his things before he walked back into the living room. He sat down on the couch and wondered what to do. He reached for the remote before he turned the TV on and switched through channels. He settled on one before he began to watch. It was silent in the apartment as Addison was still bathing.

After a while the sound of the water running down the plughole was heard as Addison got out the bath before she changed and walked into the living room in her pyjamas. Pete looked up from the movie and watched her.

"I'm going to bed now. Keep the volume down so I can sleep."

"I was just waiting to use the bathroom."

"Okay." She nodded. "Well, it's free now. I'll see you in the morning." Addison turned and made her way back into the bedroom while Pete got up from the couch and walked into the bathroom. She made her way to bed and snuggled down under the covers before she closed her eyes. He got ready for bed in the meanwhile as he used the bathroom quietly.

Addison had just drifted off to sleep when she felt the bed move as Pete got in. He carefully got under the covers, keeping his distance. She curled up into a tighter ball and tried to get back to sleep. Pete rolled onto his side and closed his eyes as well. The two of them laid there until they both fell to sleep.

February, Sunday 20th

Addison stood in her underwear as she surveyed her three choices of dresses that lay on the bed in front of her. Pete was stood in the bathroom, the door closed as he shaved, wearing only a towel around his hips. They were meeting both of their parents for a dinner that night to celebrate their marriage. They didn't know why, but they were both feeling slightly nervous about it.

Addison gave a sigh as she looked at the dresses unable to decide what one to wear. "Pete," she called. "Are you finished?"

"Yeah, almost," he called back.

"Good." She nodded and crossed her arms. Pete pushed the bathroom door open and walked into the bedroom. "I need you to choose a dress." Addison turned and faced him.

"Okay." He looked at her in her underwear.

"The dresses are on the bed, not on me." She looked back at him as he stared at her underwear.

"I think you should just go like that." He smirked.

"Very funny." She rolled her eyes. Pete smirked before he walked closer and turned his attention to the dresses. "Which do you think?" Addison stood back and watched him.

"The purple one."

"Okay then." She nodded and picked up the other two dresses before she put them back in her closet. Pete watched her before he walked over to his clothes. Addison sprayed some perfume over her before she walked back to the bed and picked up her dress. He kept glancing at her as he started to get dressed. She slid the dress up her body before she turned to him. "Can you zip me up, please?"

"Sure." He walked over to her.

"Thanks." Addison turned her back to him so he could zip her dress up. Pete placed a hand on her waist and pulled the zipper up with the other one. "How do I look?" she asked and did a turn for him once he had done her zip up.

"You look good."

"Good." Addison smiled satisfied before she put on some jewellery and picked up her heels. Pete got fully dressed in the meanwhile and they both made their way out of the bedroom. "Who's driving?" She looked at him as they made their way to the front door.

"I will."

"Okay." Addison nodded and handed him his car keys before they left the apartment.

Twenty minutes later they got out of his car in front of the restaurant. Addison slipped her hand into his as they walked inside and looked around for their parents.

"Over there," Pete whispered as he spotted their parents and linked their fingers together. She nodded and let him lead her to the table where their parents were sat talking.

"Hey." They smiled at them as they walked closer.

"Hey." Addison smiled politely back before she kissed both her parents' cheeks. Clara grinned at them as they sat down next to each other.

"The newly weds finally have arrived." Bizzy smiled at them.

"We have." Pete smiled softly at Addison.

"We've just been discussing your party." Bizzy informed them happily.

"It's going to be great." Clara grinned.

"We just need to know when you're free and we can give it a date."

"Okay." Pete nodded as he looked at them before he glanced at Addison.

"Well, erm, maybe this weekend or next?" Addison suggested as she looked between her mother and Pete's mother.

"Okay." Bizzy grinned. "Maybe this?"

"Sure." Addison nodded and looked at Pete. "Is that okay with you?"

"Of course." He nodded as well.

"Okay then." She smiled softly.

"Perfect." Bizzy grinned happily.

"So, erm, what have you got planned for this party?" Addison asked curiously.

"Well, everyone you know is going to be there and the decoration will be all wedding like and we were thinking that it would be really sweet if we could have something like a little ceremony where you just say few words, like your vows."

"Vows?" Addison looked at her mother in shock.

"Yes." Bizzy nodded.

"But why? We've already said our vows to each other."

"Well, you don't have to."

"We've already said them. It doesn't matter if others hear them or not."

"I thought it would be nice for you wedding party since no one was at your actual wedding."

Addison sighed and looked up at Pete for his input.

"I don't mind, we can do the vows." He shrugged.

"I think the vows would be really lovely." Clara told them. "It really shows your love for each other."

"It does." Bizzy smiled. "All you have to do is tell each other how you feel for each other."

Addison hesitated. She didn't think she could get up in front of everyone she knew and declare that she loved Pete and never wanted to leave him when that wasn't what she really wanted.

"Why are you so against this?" Clara looked at her daughter-in-law.

"I'm not. It's just…we've already said our vows we shouldn't have to say them again in front of everyone for them to mean something."

"It's not for them to mean something."

"Then what's it for?" Addison looked at Clara.

"It just would be sweet because it's your wedding party."

"Fine," she sighed. "We'll say our vows again."

"Good." Bizzy nodded.

"Did you make your own vows?" Edward asked the young couple before he took a sip of his drink.

"Erm, no, we didn't." Pete shook his head.

"Well, the traditional vows are fine." Bizzy smiled. Pete smiled back and took hold of Addison's hand that was led on the table. Addison glanced down at their hands before up at his face. He gave a smile before he looked back at their parents.

"Well, we'll organise this party for Saturday night then." Bizzy smiled happily.

"Okay." Pete smiled back. "We're looking forward to it."

"Oh, you should wear your wedding dress and suit." Clara grinned. "You would look so lovely."

"It's just a party, mum...not the wedding." Pete looked at her.

"Still, I think you should. It would really make the evening."

"I don't know." He glanced at Addison.

"I…well…the thing is…" Addison trailed off. She didn't have a wedding dress.

"What?" Bizzy looked at her daughter.

"Well, it's just that, I don't have a wedding dress," she admitted.

"You don't have a dress? Why not?"

"Because I just got married in what I was wearing that night."

"Oh..." Bizzy looked disappointed.

"But if you wanted me to buy one…" Addison shrugged.

"It's your choice."

"I know." She nodded and looked at her mother. Bizzy nodded as well before she took a sip of her wine.

"So." Clara looked at them. "Are we going to be getting any grandchildren anytime soon? We're not getting any younger you know." She smiled softly while Addison choked on her wine.

"We're in school, mum." Pete looked at his mother.

"I know, but still. You should be thinking of your family first."

"Not yet."

"I'm only twenty." Addison looked at Clara. "I have no plans on having kids."

"But you're married."

"I know." She nodded. "Not everyone has kids though and right now I don't want any."

"Okay then."

Addison nodded again and glanced at Pete. He just watched their parents, not saying anything. She looked away from him before she took a sip of her wine again. The waiter brought their food before they all started to eat and a conversation started up between them.

"So, Pete," Edward started. "Have you thought about buying a house?"

"At some point, yes. But right now we're content with Addison's apartment."

"Okay." Edward nodded. Pete gave a smile and nodded as well. "You know, we're really glad you asked her to marry you."

Pete smiled softly. "Me too." Edward smiled at his son-in-law and Pete smiled back before he continued to eat. Addison watched them before she turned and smiled at her mother. Bizzy grinned back at her daughter happily.

"You're very smiley lately," Addison commented.

"I'm happy for you."

"Thanks." She smiled softly.

"You're not all smiley like I expected you to be though."

"Oh…I'm not?"

"No, you're not."

"I am happy though."

"Good."

Addison smiled as she continued to eat. Bizzy smiled back and did the same. "So how are you?" Addison asked her mother.

"I'm good." She gave a smile and nodded.

"And dad?"

"Work's busy but I'm fine."

Addison nodded as she ate.

"Have you moved all of Pete's stuff yet?" Clara watched them.

"Not all." Addison shook her head.

"And the apartment is big enough?"

"Well, we're making space."

"It's enough for the two of us though," Pete commented.

"We just need to get rid of some things we don't need." Addison shrugged.

"Okay." Clara nodded. Addison smiled softly as she looked at them. "We're so happy for you." Clara smiled back.

"It's good to see you two together," Bizzy agreed.

"We knew you were perfect for each other."

"We just had to wait for you to realise it."

"Well, we did." Pete gave a smile. Bizzy smiled widely as she watched the younger couple. They smiled back softly and continued to eat.

Once they had finished eating, they got their coats and made their way outside. "What are you two up to now?" Clara looked at Pete and Addison as they walked hand in hand.

"Just going home." Addison shrugged. Clara smiled softly and nodded. "So, we'll see you soon." Addison pecked both her parents' cheeks.

"We'll see you." Pete said goodbye to his parents before they parted ways and walked to their cars. Addison and Pete got in before they drove back home.
