A/N: This was a fun chapter to write and it covered a lot. It's another long one. It also has a "mature audience" scene in it so be advised. There is one section of conversation right after the "mature audience" scene that this totally fiction. I thought that it adds to the whole story so that's why I've chosen to leave it in.
The website, .com that I referenced is an actual website that marries same sex couples in California. I'll be using the name of one of the officiants in the coming chapters.
The date of the wedding holds significant meaning to me.
I hope you like it.
Always Me & You
Chapter 12
Naya was so happy to have had an amazing conversation with Mrs. Morris. She ran around the house looking for her family.
"Mom…Dad…Where are they?"
"Sweetheart, they're still at your apartment." Heather said, obviously over the moon, too.
"Oh, yea, that's right! Thank you, baby…They should be here in awhile…" Naya said.
"Ok, no problem. How can I help?"
"Here, Mom, you can unload this, if you want to?"
"Sure! Hey, Heather, come here for a second…" Jeannie asked.
Heather walked over to her Mom.
"I'm sorry I doubted your love. It won't happen again. Listen, I would like to pay for lunch for your friends, if that's alright?"
Cory was standing behind Mrs. Morris and made the "rock'n'roll" sign which almost made Heather crack up.
"That's amazing! Thanks Mom!"
"Sure…and Cory, I saw that, young man…"
"I'm sorry," Cory said, looking down.
"Haha!" Mrs. Morris exclaimed and threw up the sign.
"Whew! Hey HeMo…your Mom's funny!"
"Um, ok…Mom, come over here…" Heather said as she wanted to protect her Mom.
"Honey…" Mrs. Morris whispered, "Who's 'HeMo'?"
"That's me…it's my first two letters of my first name with the first two of my last name…"
"So, I'd be 'JeMo'?"
"Yea," Heather said and laughed.
"Cory, get away from her Mom…" Jayma said.
"What did I do?" Cory asked and then laughed.
Beep Beep
"Second shift is here…" Naya announced.
"I'll come with you, Naya!"
"Ok, follow me Jeannie!"
Mrs. Morris and Naya went outside as the rest of the gang got out of the cars, and unloaded the stuff. Naya's family got out.
"Heather, come here…" Naya yelled.
"Coming…" Heather said and sprinted. "Hi, guys…"
"I wanted you to be here when our families met. Where are your sisters?"
"Hey, girls…Come out here."
April and Crystal ran out just as the Riveras got out of the car.
"Mom and Dad, this is Mrs. Morris…"
"Hello, Mrs. Morris…"
"Oh, please, call me Jeannie. We're going to be family, right?"
Naya's parents' faces lit up in excitement.
"Yes, we are! Let us introduce you to Nickayla and Mychal."
"Hi!" They waved.
"Oh, this is Crystal and April…" They extended their hands and shook Naya's parents' hands.
"Well, I'm Yolanda and this is George! We absolutely love Heather!"
"Thank you…Naya is a very special woman. I totally see why Heather is in love with her!"
"Thank you. Naya is special to us," George said and smiled.
"Ok, let's unpack some boxes," Yolanda said, and with that the new family walked together into the house.
Naya and Heather were right behind them holding hands. Heather whispered, "Look at how they are blending already!"
"I see…we are beyond lucky! There's no stopping us now."
"Yes, we are."
When they entered the house, Naya found Dianna unpacking a box. Before she left Heather she said, "I'll be back. I wanna talk with Di."
"Okie dokie!" Heather gave Naya a kiss on her cheek before she left her to join the group.
"Hey Di…Can we talk?" Naya asked.
"Sure…I wanted to apologize about our fight."
"I'm sorry too. I was just so happy…"
"I shouldn't have said anything…"
"You were looking out for me."
"But now that I see how happy you two are, I 'get it'!"
"We ok?"
"We never weren't not okay!" Dianna said and hugged Naya quickly.
"I spoke to Heather's Mom today…"
"How did that go?"
"A lot better than I thought it would. She gave us her blessing. And she respects me!"
"That's great, Nay. I never doubted that!"
"Thank you…"
Lauren yelled, "Hey, Nay…where does this go?"
"Duty calls…See you later."
Dianna smiled. Naya turned around and headed in Lauren's direction.
"Hey, girl…that goes in my bedroom. But wait I want to introduce you to my family and Heather's."
"Really? Okay!"
"Of course! Follow me." Naya walked with Lauren over to the kitchen were the family was and said, "Everyone this is Lauren. She plays 'Becky' on GLEE!"
George and Yolanda walked up to Lauren. Lauren shook their hands and then said, "Your daughter is awesome! I'm so happy to be here helping!"
"Aww. You're a doll!" Yolanda exclaimed and threw her arms around Lauren.
"Thank you…"
"Mom, did you know that she memorizes her lines?"
"Naya…." Lauren blushed.
"What I'm proud of you…"
"That's commendable! I'm sure Nay doesn't do that!"
"She holds her own…" Lauren replied and giggled.
"Ok, come with me, young lady!"
"Nice to meet you." Lauren said as she walked away with Naya.
"Jeannie, I'd like you to meet Lauren, our friend."
"You play 'Becky', right?"
"Wow! Yes, I do. It's nice to meet you. Heather is a great person for me to know."
"Thank you. I like your work on GLEE!"
"Thank you…I better get back to work. Nice to meet you again. Naya come with me?"
"Sure…" Once they were away from the small crowd Naya asked, "I didn't embarrass you, did I?"
"Nope…" Lauren hugged Naya tightly and said, "Thank you for being such a good friend. You make me feel like I matter and that I'm a part of all of this."
"Oh, honey…You're welcome. And you are a part of all of this. You have a friend in me for life. Anything you need let me know."
Then Heather and Lea called Naya to come over to where they were.
"I gotta get back to it."
"Laters!" Lauren said, with a huge grin on her face.
Naya went over to her friends and said, "Lauren is so cute!"
"I know. Where did you guys want this…and Dianna and I are going out to dinner to talk." Lea added that in.
"You can put that…wait! What," Heather asked, shocked.
"You heard me…Could you lower your voice…She doesn't know I'm telling you."
"Well, that's great, Lea," Naya commented.
Just then Mrs. Morris walked over and asked to speak with Naya and Heather.
"Absolutely." Lea responded.
"I have a question for you two."
Naya and Heather looked at her with anticipation of what she would ask.
"Have you set a date yet?"
Heather took a sigh of relief.
"Honestly, Jeannie, we have been consumed with packing me up, working, and stuff that we haven't really sat down to talk about it. As soon as possible wouldn't be soon enough for me," Naya said.
"Isn't she precious," Heather asked and squeezed Naya's cheeks.
"Adorable…Let us know when you do? Oh, and one more thing…"
"Yea?"
"The natives are getting restless…they want food!"
As if it were a scene on GLEE, Cory yelled, "I'm hungry!"
Mrs. Morris pointed and said, "See?"
They laughed and then Naya went in search of the Italian take out menu.
Heather walked around and made sure that pizza and soda were okay.
Everyone nodded their heads in agreement and Matt even offered to pay.
"A pre-wedding gift?"
"Ah, thanks, Matt, but we have it covered."
"Cool!"
Heather came back to the kitchen and said, "Pizza's the popular choice. Mom, do you want something else?"
"Of course not." Jeannie smiled. She was really getting into the spirit of GLEE since she tuned in every Tuesday night.
"Ok, I'll order four large pies and five bottles of sodas?"
"Perfect! I'll get my card and you and Naya could get it."
"You sure, Mom?"
"Don't question her when she gives you the credit card. It doesn't happen too often," Crystal yelled.
"Hey, I heard that!" Jeannie handed Heather the card and said, "I need it back, please! Naya watch her!"
Naya threw her hands up in surrender. "I will."
Heather laughed, said, and smiled, "Who's side are you on?"
Naya just walked away.
"Good move," Chris said to Naya. They all burst out in laughter.
"C'mon, honey, let's go…"
They left the house and went to get the pizzas in Heather's car.
Once in the car, they immediately gave each other a kiss on the lips.
"Can you believe how great this all is turning out?" Heather asked.
"No, honestly, I can't. But your Mom is right!"
"About setting a date?"
"Yup. Now that there is nothing stopping us we get to plan our wedding!"
"I've never done that before…"
"I'm right there with ya. Ok, step by step…Let's set a date," reasoned Naya.
"I don't want to wait," Heather said, lovingly.
"Neither do I…"
"Three months from now," asked Heather as she pulled out her phone which has a calendar app on it.
"Three full months from now is July. Let's do it on a Saturday. So how's July 14th? Is that alright?" Heather asked.
"It's more than alright…"
"Great! Who are we going to have stand up for us?"
"Well, I know who I'd like to stand up for me…" Naya said.
"Oh, yeah, who?"
"Either Lauren or Dianna."
"Really?"
"Does that sound good? They've really encouraged and helped me and I know they are there for us when we need them."
"I think you should have them both. Don't choose."
"This is our wedding right?"
"Yes!"
"Who are your two?" Naya asked.
"Well, I'm hoping to ask Jane…"
"That's a great idea. I owe her so much as it is. Who's your second person?"
"That's a tough one. I know that my Mom wants to be involved, but…"
"Yea, it's just me, baby!"
"I'd like to ask your Mom, if that's okay?"
Naya looked at her future wife and became emotional.
"My Mom…"
"Yea? Is that alright?"
"That's perfect. I have an idea, if I may?"
"Shoot!"
"Since your Dad isn't here to walk you down the aisle to me maybe your Mom could?"
Heather wiped away a single tear.
"I didn't want you to cry…"
"I'm not. I'm just happy! And your Dad can walk you down."
"Perfect. What about the rest of GLEE?"
"Guests at a free wedding…I think they'll be fine!"
"I think you're right."
They arrived at the pizzeria and got their very large order. Heather paid and Naya carried the boxes of pizza out of the restaurant. Heather carried the bottles of soda in a big brown paper bags with handles. They loaded the stuff in the trunk so it wouldn't smell up the whole car.
Naya had the greatest idea of her life. Well besides telling Heather how she felt and asking her to marry her.
"So do you think you need a special permit to get married on the beach?"
"Well…" it took Heather a minute to comprehend what Naya had said, and then she exploded, "OMG! Santa Cruz! Really?"
"Absolutely! You wanna?"
"Sweetheart, you don't even have to ask. And it'll save us money."
Heather leaned over and kissed Naya's cheek.
"Oh, you brought up a good point. Are we paying for this wedding by ourselves or are we accepting any outside help if it's offered? What if they really want to help?"
"Um, if we pool our money together we should be able to afford it, don't you think? If they really want to help us we can accept the help," Heather said.
"I think we should tell them if we can do it ourselves for 'responsibility purposes', but if they want to they can assist us. This way no one's feelings get hurt. I don't want anything too fancy…Just you, me, and the people we care about who are at our apartment right now, hopefully not breaking anything."
"Oh, crap, good point," Heather said, "Step on it?"
"Your wish is my command!"
"Oh, really? Well I'll have more wishes to be fulfilled later tonight!"
"Woohoo!" Naya exclaimed and did a fist pump, "That's what I'm talking about!"
"Haha!"
Once they arrived home, Naya asked, "Can we give them the dates of the weekend? And then tell who we chose at another time? I want to do it personally and privately."
"Cool…Can I give them the news?"
"Anything you want!"
They exited the car and were hounded by their hungry helpers who all said, "Thank you" before they snatched up the food. They scurried away like mice back inside the house.
When they walked in, Heather gave her Mom the credit card back and said, "Thank you again!"
"Think nothing of it!" Jeannie said and hugged her daughter.
"Helpful hint, Mom…"
"Yes, dear…"
"If you're hungry, I'd suggest that you get in the front of the line as soon as possible."
"I'm on it!" Mrs. Morris said, disappearing onto the line.
"Hey, don't cut!"
"CORY!"
"I'm kidding, geez!"
"Cory, don't make me call your Mother! It's okay…I can handle myself." Mrs. Morris winked.
Once everyone had their pizza and were settled, Heather spoke up, "Hey, everyone, we have an announcement. We want all of you to save a date on your calendars. Naya and I are going to be married on July 14th of this year! We are going to get married in Santa Cruz. It's the place that we fell head over heels in love at. We'll reserve rooms for you at the Seaway Inn!"
"That's only three months away," said Dot.
"Yea, we know. We are planning a small ceremony. Just me, Naya, and the people we love…you!"
"Yay!" Lauren beamed.
"Thank you, Lauren. C'mon guys, we have a date and location! Woo hoo!" Heather said.
"That's wonderful," George said.
"Fabulous," said Jeannie. "Oh, Heather I almost forgot, but may I see your ring? Girls come over here."
"Oh, God, I'm so sorry Mom. I can't believe I never showed you!"
Heather walked over to her family and extended her left hand to them.
"Oh my God, that's beautiful!"
"It's huge," Crystal shouted.
"It belonged to Naya's grandmother…"
"Really?"
Yolanda walked up behind them and said, "I'm sorry to interrupt, but it was George's mother's ring. She told Naya to give it to her love…and she did!"
"Breathtaking!" beamed Jeannie.
"Thank you."
"Wear it in good health, Heather."
"I intend to, April!"
After the pizzas were devoured and they cleaned up the mess they continued to unpack. Before they knew it, the gigantic task was completely finished. There wasn't anything else that Heather and Naya needed to do.
Before everyone left, Naya said, "Thank you everyone for all of your hard work. Heather and I appreciate it more than you'll ever know…"
"We're family," Amber said, joyfully.
"Yes, we are!" Heather answered.
"There's nothing else to do, so we think you all can go home, except for our families, obviously. Thank you sooo much! We'll see you on Monday."
With that everyone got their stuff, exchanged hugs, and left the apartment. When they were gone, Naya and Heather's families hung out and talked.
"Where are we going to dinner tonight," asked George.
"There's a casual Mexican restaurant not too far from here, Daddy," Naya suggested.
"If it's alright with Heather's family…"
"Of course."
"And because you bought lunch today for everyone…dinner is on us," Yolanda stated.
"You sure?"
"Yes, absolutely."
"Great. I think that girls and I would like to freshen up a bit and change for dinner…"
"We could drive you to the hotel and wait for you…"
"It won't be a bother?"
"Not at all. I need to pick up a few things anyway!"
"Ok, thank you. We appreciate it."
Jeannie looked at Heather and Naya and said, "I guess we will meet you at the restaurant for 6:30pm, sound good?"
Heather looked at her watch and said, "Cool. An hour and a half. Naya, you good?"
"Sounds perfect!"
"Done."
Yolanda and the families began to walk to the car, when Naya said, "Hey, everyone…Heather and I would like to say, 'Thank You' for all your hard work today. Jeannie, April, and Crystal thank you for coming. Mom, Dad, Nickayla, and Mychal thanks for coming down. We truly appreciate and love you!"
Mrs. Morris walked up to Naya and pulled her in for a hug. She whispered into Naya's ear, "Thank you for making Heather truly happy!" Naya didn't know what to exactly say so she squeezed the woman tightly. Once they broke the hug, Mrs. Morris looked into Naya's eyes and she could swear that she saw Heather in them. Before she could say anything, Yolanda said, "Ready Jeannie?"
"Absolutely. Lead the way."
Heather kissed her Mom and sisters and both Naya and Heather watched as their new, blended family left their apartment together. They hoped that they would be able to create a friendship.
After the car pulled away, Naya pulled Heather into her arms, looked up at her, and said, "We did it!"
"I love you sweetheart!"
"I love you too, baby!"
They kissed for a good ten minutes and then hopped into the shower, separately, even though they longed to be in there together. They knew it would lead to the bed and they didn't have the time for that, right now.
Meanwhile, in the car, the families got to know each other and then Jeannie said, "I have a thought…"
"What's that?" Yolanda asked.
"I know we haven't asked those two about who would be paying for the wedding. I figured we'd talk about that at dinner. I'd be more than happy to split it with you."
"No, dinner's on us, Jeannie."
"No, honey, I think Jeannie's referring to the wedding," George replied.
"Oh, I'm sorry…"
"I want to give my daughter, Naya, the wedding of her dreams," George answered, honestly.
"I agree," Yolanda said.
"I, too, would like to do that on behalf of myself and my late husband. He always wanted to know that Heather was happy. I think he'd be over the moon with knowing that Heather is truly happy with Naya."
"So is this the agreement?' George asked, hopeful.
"I think so." Jeannie answered.
"I am excited. The only thing I want for them is for them to plan it. I'll try not to interfere too much," Yolanda said.
"It'll be tough, but I totally agree," agreed Jeannie.
"Wonderful…our daughters are going to have the wedding of their lives." beamed George, proudly.
Once they got to the hotel, Jeannie and Heather's sisters went up to their rooms to change. While they were doing that Yolanda and Naya's family went to the near-by card store and got the girls two congratulations cards. They found the perfect ones, purchased them, and returned to the car. They travelled back to the hotel as Jeannie and Heather's sisters walked out of the building when they arrived.
They got in the car and Yolanda said, "I picked up two 'congratulations on your engagement' cards do you want to sign them?"
"That's awfully nice of you. If you don't mind that'd be great! Do I owe you anything?"
"Not a penny."
"Thank you." Jeannie said and took out a pen. She handed the card to the rest of the bunch and they all signed.
They made small talk as they travelled to the restaurant. Once they got there they piled out and found that Heather and Naya were there and had gotten a table.
"Hi, everyone!"
"How was the car ride?"
"Great, we got to know each other better," Jeannie said. They quickly ordered and then the real conversation began.
"So, girls," George started the conversation, "Your Mom, Heather, and we, Naya, would like to give you the wedding of your life…"
Naya and Heather looked at each other and smiled.
"You know what?" asked Naya.
She looked out at the questioning faces seated across from her.
"It's already going to be a 'wedding of a lifetime' because I'm marrying the love of my lifetime!"
They all smiled.
"Yes, I know, but we still want to do this for you, will you let us?"
Naya and Heather had a mini conference between the two of them.
Heather said, "We would be honored. We just want a small ceremony on the beach in Santa Cruz. Then a reception at the restaurant in the hotel we stayed at called the Seaway Inn. Nothing too extravagant."
Mrs. Morris chimed in, "Absolutely. Whatever you want."
"We did have a question regarding a permit to get married on the beach," Naya commented.
"I'll look into that and if necessary I'll apply for it! Consider it done." George said.
"Thanks Dad."
"Ok, now onto the important question." Naya said and looked at Heather.
"Oh, yes. We were talking before and I wanted to ask you, Mom, if you'd walk me down the 'aisle of sand' to Naya?"
"Really?"
"Yea, I think Dad would want you to."
"I'd be honored!" Heather got up and went to kiss and hug her Mom.
"Daddy," Naya said, "Would you walk me down the 'aisle of sand' too?"
"Yesssss!" George exclaimed already emotional.
Naya got up and hugged her teddy bear of a Dad. "Great!"
"Yolanda…" Heather said and looked at her future mother-in-law. "Would you be able to stand up for me?"
"Of course…I'd be flattered."
"Great. It should be you and our friend and co-star, Jane. She helped me immensely to figure things out so I think it's only right. I'm asking her on Monday."
"Who are you going to have, Nay?" her sister, Nickayla asked.
"I'm thinking about asking Lauren and Dianna. Is that okay?"
"That's great…"
"Don't worry we will have 'jobs' for all of you during the reception, okay?"
They all nodded.
Just then dinner arrived and they talked, ate, and had a good time.
"When do you leave, Jeannie?"
"We have an 11am flight tomorrow. We all have work on Monday."
"Wow, really?" Heather said, kind of surprised.
"Yea, sorry dear, but we gotta go back."
"I feel like I didn't get to spend a lot of time with you guys," Heather admitted.
"We had a great time," Crystal said and April agreed.
"Yes, we love all your friends! They're great!" Mrs. Morris comforted Heather.
"They liked you too."
And just like that George paid the bill and they said their good-byes.
"Yolanda, please give me your phone number so we can keep in touch and keep track of everything."
"Ok," she replied. Then she remembered that she had the cards. "Wait, everyone…" she said as she dug the cards out of her purse and gave them to Heather and Naya.
"Thank you," they said. Naya and Heather received the cards and promised to open them later.
Heather hugged her mother and sisters. Then Naya hugged Mrs. Morris and the girls.
"Thank you for talking with me today, Jeannie."
"I am beyond happy for you, Naya. Just promise me something…please take care of my daughter…"
"Every day of my life!" Naya responded.
And Mrs. Morris smiled.
Then Naya went over to her family and exchanged hugs.
"As we plan we'll let you know, Mom."
"Please do. Congratulations on 'the talk'!"
"Thank you." Naya said and smiled.
They watched as they all got into the car and drove off.
Naya and Heather got into their car and drove home.
When they arrived, they got out, and climbed the stairs. Heather unlocked the door and pushed it open.
"Wait a minute…"
"What?"
Heather scooped Naya up into her arms and Naya shut the door behind them and somehow locked it. Heather carried Naya right upstairs and threw her forcibly, but gently onto their bed. Heather left her to close the door and when she returned she found Naya with her top off.
"Hey, I wanted to do that." Heather said and smiled.
"Should I put it back on?"
"No, I'll continue to undress you, if you don't mind?"
"Not one bit!"
Heather then continued to undress her Latina goddess. She removed her pants and threw them aside. She stood over Naya for a few seconds.
"Are you okay?" Naya asked.
"I'm just taking you all in."
"Oh, in that case…" Naya said, as she removed her bra and let her breasts free.
"Wow! You're beautiful."
"Come over here now," Naya sexually pleaded.
Heather obliged and climbed on top of Naya. Naya's mouth found Heather's for a frenzied and passionate kiss. Naya shifted herself on the bed so Heather was now lying on her back. Naya now had the honor of undressing her love while never breaking eye contact. Once Heather was completely naked, Naya lay on top of her and they started to grind together. Heather held Naya close to her body and she could begin to feel the sweat and electricity start to form because of the friction of their moving bodies. Naya started to place kisses and an occasional bite mark on Heather's neck which solicited a big moan from Heather. As Naya was attending to her neck her other hand went lower and lower down Heather's body until she found Heather's sex. Naya gently inserted a finger inside and Heather yelled, "Ah! Yes!"
Naya knew instinctively that Heather was okay so she continued her journey. She tried to get another finger inside and found that Heather's body obliged her request. While Naya's hand was busy doing that she moved her kisses downward to Heather's breasts, as she kissed and licked the aroused nipples. Heather seemed to enjoy this as she demanded, "Put one in your mouth!"
Naya didn't waste any time in doing that. Now Heather was convulsing with excitement and anticipation.
"I'm close," Heather announced. When Naya heard that she quickly forced her fingers deeper into Heather.
"Aahhhh!" With that Naya found that Heather had her sweet release on her fingers.
Heather's labored breathing started to calm down and she had a sense of calm about her.
"Come here…" Heather said as she scooped Naya up so they were now face to face.
"That was amazing!"
"Like I said 'we have nothing standing in our way now'!"
"I love you, Naya Marie Rivera."
"I know. I love you too. Thank you for allowing me to do that!"
"You don't ever have tothank me for doing that! I have a question for you."
"Sure…"
"Am I enough for you in the bedroom?"
"Yes, you are…what makes you think you're not?"
"I just feel inexperienced, that's all."
"I am too, ya know?"
"Oh…"
"Heather, you do know you're my first?"
"Your first girlfriend…"
"Well, that and my first!"
"Are you serious?"
"Yea, I am. Why?"
"I thought you had boyfriends…"
"I have, but there was always something off with them…"
"Oh, I see."
"Now I know what that was! I was waiting for you!"
"Sweetheart, that's so cute! Can I tell you about Collins?"
"As long as you don't cry."
"I'll try…He was my high school sweetheart. We actually knew each other when we were younger as our families were in the same circles. We started to date during the end of the eighth grade. Then we dated in high school. He was my first boyfriend…"
Heather looked at Naya who said, "It's okay baby. We all have pasts."
Heather smiled and then continued, "We went to the same college, local university, so we could stay together. Then one night, I walked in from the hallway of the dorm and found some girl leaving his room. He denied it, obviously, but then I found her underwear and a note from her."
"Oh, that's horrible. I'm sorry, Heather."
"Thank you…So after I found out, I dumped him, but first I asked what she had that I didn't have. He was honest and said that it was just a fling and he wanted to be with me for the long run. I told him that I couldn't go further in that relationship knowing that he had cheated on me. It would always be in the back of my mind and I'd constantly question him which wouldn't be good for anyone. I had planned on not continuing college and moving out here so that's what I did."
Naya just looked at her with astonishment.
Heather continued, "I'm a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. That relationship taught me a lot about myself. It taught me that I'm much stronger than I give myself credit for. It taught me to never assume that things are okay. That's why I had those fears about you leaving me because I've been left. That's why I question things…"
"Heather, I totally understand. I need you to believe that I won't ever leave you. You have my heart. You've always had it even before we met. I get the feeling that we were destined to be together. I, for one, will not test destiny…I'm not really sure if I totally believe in it, but still I'm not going to test it."
"I had to go through that relationship. It brought me to you. In that aspect, I am grateful to Collins for making me go through that. No matter how painful it was, and trust me it was, it brought me to you. I belong with you. I've felt it since the first time we met."
Naya kissed her sweetly. That kiss turned into another hour love making session where Heather tried with everything she had to convey to Naya how much she loved her. Naya's body had a reaction to every touch Heather gave it, every kiss she left, and every sensation. Naya was amazed at how this woman knew how to touch her and what she liked. Naya had her release while Heather was concentrating on Naya's breasts as she took each one into her mouth.
"Aahh," Naya moaned.
"You okay?"
"Fine. Do that again?"
Heather did as she was asked and felt Naya's body rise and fall. Heather stopped and fell onto the bed. They held each other and pretty soon fell asleep in each other's arms.
Before they knew it, Sunday was upon them. They got up around 10:30 and took their time getting dressed.
"What do you want to do today?"
"I think she should start planning our wedding!"
"Good thought!"
Ok, where should we start?"
"I think first we should try and find a person to oversee our ceremony?"
"Yeah. I'll Google that."
Heather got her laptop out and type, 'Presider of same sex marriages.'
Many links came up, but Heather found one website.
"Nay, come here."
"Yes…"
'I think I found something. The website is called 'Great Officiants' and they're in LA. They have a phone number for this website. Should we call and leave a message, at least?"
"Sure…"
Heather punched in the numbers into her cell phone and put it on speaker.
The voice messaging system came on. "Hello, you've reached Alan Katz, with Great Officiants. I'm sorry I missed your call, but if you leave your name and phone number I'll return your call as soon as possible. Thank you. Love is love!"
Beep
"Hi, Mr. Katz, this is Heather Morris. My fiancée, Naya Rivera, and I would like to talk with you. My number is 855-258-2979. Thank you."
Heather hung up.
"Ok, that's taken care of. We should write this down…"
Naya held up a pad of paper and a pen. "One step ahead of you."
"Coolbeans!"
"Now, I'm going to text Jane and let her know I need to talk to her tomorrow."
"That's a good idea. I'll text Dianna and Lauren…"
Heather texted.
JANE LYNCH: Hi, Jane, I hope you're enjoying your weekend. Tomorrow could we have a chat?
Heather hit the 'send' button.
Within five minutes Heather heard, "I'm sexy and I know it!" Naya laughed out loud as she was texting her friends.
"I can't believe you have that song as your text notification ringtone!"
"What? I'm sexy…and I know it!" Heather read the text from Jane and said, "She's good for the chat!"
Naya smiled. She was just about to text Lauren.
LAUREN POTTER: Hey, girl…thanks for the help yesterday. Are you working tomorrow? If so I wanna ask you a question.
Naya hit the 'send' button.
In a second Naya's phone beeped.
Naya giggled at Lauren's response. It simply read, "True dat!"
"Heather, Lauren just text me, 'true dat!'"
"Haha!"
"Oh, tomorrow are we going to talk to Ryan?"
"Yes, I think so. Don't you?"
"Sure…I was thinking we'd do a sit down interview with only one reporter. What do ya think?"
"Sounds good. But who?"
"Someone notable so it doesn't turn into some trash story. Diane Sawyer? Katie Couric?"
"I like Diane Sawyer. She seems down to Earth," Heather said.
"I'll text my agent to see what he can do. We only want to announce this once, right? Announce it to the public, right?"
"Yes. In fact, I'll call my Mom right now. They should be home by now. Do you want to be a part of the conversation?"
"Sure." Naya said.
Heather dialed her home number and put the phone on speaker mode.
"Hello?"
"Hi, Mom."
"Oh, hi dear, we just walked into the house!"
"Good flight?"
"Yea, smooth sailing…"
"We gotta tell you something…Naya's here too."
"Hi, Naya…"
"Hi, Jeannie…"
"Tomorrow we hope to have a sit down with Ryan…"
"He created GLEE?"
"Yup. Anyway, we wanted to let you know that afterwards we're doing one interview to announce our engagement. We want you to know that there might be some people who may not agree with our lives, but that will not affect anything between me and Naya."
"No one tells me how to live except for myself." Naya stated.
"You know what, girls?"
"No what?"
"You're absolutely right. No one should tell you who to love. I love you both and you have my support!"
"I…we, totally love you for that, Mom," said Heather, proudly.
"Thank you, Jeannie."
"Oh, Naya…"
"Yes?"
"Call me 'Mom'!"
Heather and Naya looked at each other in disbelief.
"Um, okay. Mom!"
