Chapter Six

Tommy and Lil cut the cake together before they did the garter and bouquet. "We better not make this a replay of Chelsea's first birthday" Tommy said smiling. He put his hand over Lil as they cut it. They both took a small piece and fed it to each other.

"I honestly thought about just shoving it in your face" Lil said with a smile.

"I did too, don't worry" he laughed as he cut a slice for Chelsea.

After people were done with their cake Dil brought a chair out to the middle of the yard. Tommy grabbed Lil's hand and took her to the chair. Everyone gathered around, ready for the garter toss. Lil noticed Phil covering his eyes, he didn't want to see Tommy reaching up his sisters dress. Lil gave him a wink just to bother him.

Once Tommy got the garter off her, Lil stood up and he got in the chair, ready to toss it. Kimi pushed Phil into the crowd and he ended up catching it, by complete accident. Phil made a noise and saw Lil run over to Kimi and whisper something to her. Tommy walked over to Phil and pat him on the back "Good catch, Phil."

"Shut it, T!" Tommy laughed and watched Lil get ready to throw the bouquet.

"Are you going to stick with tradition and put it on the girl who catches it?" Tommy asked with a smile.

Phil made a face and shrugged "I guess. It just depends on who catches it."

Tommy laughed again and walked over to the food. Phil watched in anticipation as Lil tossed the bouquet. Lucky for him, Kimi caught it. Lil dragged the chair over and made Kimi sit "Go ahead, Phillip" Phil had a smile as he got down in front of Kimi to put the garter on her.

Lil and Tommy said goodbye to their family and friends and made their way home. First thing in the morning they were leaving for their honeymoon.

"Will you tell me where we are going now?" Lil begged as they walked through the door.

Tommy laughed and shook his head "You'll see. It's a surprise and somewhere you really want to go"

Lil though about it "Hawaii?"

Tommy shook his head at her "You aren't going to figure it out." he walked closer to her and put his hands on her waist. She started thinking again and he put his lips to her neck "I told you, you won't figure it out." Lil put her hands on his shoulders and started pushing him toward the bedroom.

**********
Lil woke up the next morning against Tommy's bare chest. She smiled to herself thinking about last night. She started running her hand up and down his side until he started to wake up. He wrapped both his arms around her and gave her a kiss "Good morning, my beautiful wife"

She smiled at him and sat up, wrapping herself in the blanket. Tommy ran a hand up and down her back "What time is it?"

Lil looked over at the bedside table clock "Seven."

"Our plane leaves in three hours" he smiled at her as she got out of bed to put some clothes on and get her stuff together.

"I'm mad at you because you won't tell me where we are going" she smiled and turned around putting clothes into her bag. Tommy climbed out of bed and put on a pair of sweatpants before walking up behind Lil and putting his arms around her.

"Don't worry, you'll love it. It'll be romantic" Tommy said kissing her cheek.

Lil groaned and pouted. She wanted to know so bad where they were going. Tommy smiled at her and put a shirt on before grabbing Lil's bag and taking it out into the living room. Lil walked into the bathroom to take make herself look semi decent. She walked into the living room and saw Tommy sitting on the couch, waiting for her.

"You ready?" he asked with a smile

Lil shook her head and followed him out the door. The whole way to the airport Lil was taking guesses as to where he was taking her, and each time she got the same reply "It won't be a surprise if I tell you" he kept smiling at her and it was driving her crazy. She called Phil when they got to the airport and told him when they'd be back and to tell him to watch Chelsea carefully.

Tommy carried their bags to the check-in and got their tickets. He refused to give Lil hers so she couldn't see where they were going. "Tommy, please! What if I really don't want to go to this place and you just wasted your money?"

Tommy looked at her and shook his head "Trust me, Lillian. I know this is one of the places you really wanted to visit, I know you'll love it."

Lil crossed her arms and looked out the window to watch the planes "Do you want some Starbucks?" Tommy asked her and she smiled and nodded.

Lil was staring out the window when someone walked up to her "Lil?"

She turned around to see Rachel, Tommy's ex. "Rachel? Hey!" Lil did her best to sound excited to see her

"What are you doing here?" Rachel asked with a smile.

"I'm getting ready for my honeymoon, but I don't know where to" Lil said with a shrug "He says I'll love it though"

"Congratulations on getting married!" Rachel smiled and gave her a hug. "Whose the husband?"

Lil felt silly because she hadn't said Tommy's name. She forgot that Rachel didn't know "Oh, right. I married -"

Tommy walked over and handed Lil her drink and then looked at Rachel "Rachel?"

"Tommy?" Rachel looked between them and then it clicked in her head "Oh my gosh, you're married to Tommy!"

Lil nodded and looked up at Tommy "Yeah... We just got married yesterday" he smiled at her.

Rachel heard her plane being called "It was good seeing you two again, and congratulations on the marriage!" she walked away and Tommy sat down next to Lil.

Lil took a sip from drink and looked at Tommy "Please, please, please tell me where we're going" she didn't want to talk about the fact that Rachel was just here.

Tommy broke into a smile again and shook his head. "You'll find out once we're actually on the plane"

Lil finished her drink and got up to throw it away and then their plane was called. Lil jumped up and followed Tommy. He handed their tickets to the lady and they got on. Lil took the window seat and Tommy was in the aisle seat. "No matter where we go, it'll be perfect as long as I'm with you" she said and gave him a quick kiss.
