Chapter 8

"So it's official. July 15th is the engagement barbeque at Mom and Dad's place" Becky announced the next day while I was slowly, but surely waking up.

"And they're okay with this?" I asked.

"Of course, why wouldn't they be" she replied. "I'm really exciting for this I mean this is the only I am planning."

"Let's hope to keep it that way" I mumbled.

Before she said anything else, a knock came on the door. I looked at her as I got up to open the door. I looked through the peephole and saw to my amazement that it was Dylan at the door.

"Hey Dylan, you okay?" I asked, letting him in.

"Yeah I'm fine I just can't stop by and visit you guys" he asked.

"Not unless if there's a reason" I joked as he came in. "Where's Paige and the baby?"

"At my in laws. I didn't really want to be around with Paige's mother not that she's a bad lady or anything" he replied.

"See you're not the only one with in law problems" Becky said from the kitchen.

Dylan eyed me weirdly as we headed into the kitchen. We both sat down and I grabbed my coffee and drank it almost all.

"You're already having problems with Cedric's parents?" Dylan asked.

"Shush, he's still sleeping" I hushed him.

"He's sleeping with you isn't he?" he asked.

"So it's not like we're having sex right away" I replied. "I am after all saving for the wedding night. Besides, if you must know, I think that his dad is not a big fan of me."

"Why would you think that?" Dylan asked me.

"Because Cedric and I made that vow-"

"No not that, the dad thing" Dylan said.

"Oh, well he didn't have the greatest look on his face when we became engaged" I said. "I don't know I mean Cedric did tell me like a thousand times he doesn't hate me."

"Well, hopefully you can resolve this before the wedding" he said.

"I hope so too" I said drinking what's left of my coffee. I heard movement coming from the next room and saw Cedric coming out of my room.

"Morning love" he said wrapping an arm around me. "Hey Dylan didn't hear you come in."

"Yeah well, I just came in awhile ago" Dylan said.

"So what the hell are we doing today?" I asked.

"Well, I got to head out for a meeting" Becky replied.

"You didn't tell me you had a meeting" I said.

"Oh well, I found out last night after you went to bed that I have a meeting to go to for work it's no big deal" she said.

"Okay and then I don't have to be at work until four and I have no idea about those two" I said pointing towards Dylan and Cedric across the room looking like they were in deep conversation.

I don't even want to know.

"You sure you'd be okay with Dylan?" I asked Cedric as I was getting ready for work that afternoon.

"Love, I'll be fine besides he wants to try and get to know me better" he replied.

"He could've done that at his wedding" I mumbled.

He shrugged when I came out of the bathroom. I took a glance at my ring before putting on the rest of my jewelry. I dried my hair with my towel before I brushed it and pulled it up in a bun since I was already in my scrubs. I looked over on my bed and saw the bridal magazine that was still laying there.

"Tomorrow I was thinking about maybe we should go check out some halls to have the wedding" I said.

"Yeah, that sounds like a good idea" he said absent-mindedly.

"If you don't want to hangout with him, you don't have to" I told him.

"No, no it's fine, besides we need to talk about tuxes. He knows a place that can help, I just have some things on my mind" he said.

"You know, you can tell me what's really bothering you" I said.

"I told you everything's fine" he assured me.

"I know but something's telling me that it's not" I said truthfully. "I got to get to work, see you later." I gave him a kiss and walked out of my room and headed out the door.

Throughout my shift, I couldn't help but wonder what I said to him. I did feel a little bit bad at what I said to him. But I couldn't help it. I thought that we were suppose to share everything with each other. I mean, after all we are getting married in like what, a year?

I did stay more focused on work and I couldn't wait to get home and it was only me and Marissa left to close up the office for the night.

"Night girly see you guys on Monday" I called out as we left the office.

"Yeah same here, so glad that I got this weekend off surprisingly" Marissa said as we were at our cars. I got in and started my car and pulled out of the parking lot not long afterwards.

I drove home from work later that night and I couldn't get what I told him off my mind. Something was going on, and whatever it was, Cedric knows and won't tell me. Then again, I'm somewhat doing the same to him about the lunch with Josh I have to go to next week. But I did tell half the truth though, I just didn't say his name.

I made up my mind that I was going to find out what was up.

Even if I have to figure it out on my own.

I guess that doesn't get old, does it?

A/n: I normally don't post on Saturdays but with having company staying over and what not, I didn't get a chance to sit down and write something.

I want to try and get back to my writing schedule to Mondays, though now that I think about it, I did update better once a week while I'm in school. But it's summer vacation a lot can happen right?

You know what to do! I'll try and get the next update out sooner rather than later but I have a feeling it's going to be impossible but you never know when inspiration kicks in.

Thanks for your continuing support and patience.

Signing out for now,
