Three weeks had passed. AJ had been home for a day she was going back to work tomorrow. She was at the shop wear they were making her wedding dress. It was finally done and she was trying it on for the first time. She looked at it in the full-length mirror. She loved it. She took a picture of herself and sent it to Kaitlyn and John.
What do you guys think? – AJ
A few seconds later she got two responses. The first one was from Kaitlyn.
Love it! – Kaitlyn
The second one was from John.
You look so beautiful AJ. – John
Monica the dressmaker walked into the room.
"So AJ what do you think?" Monica asked.
"I love it."
"Good."
"I'll be back to pick it up two days before the wedding."
"Ok."
"Thanks for everything."
AJ went to the rehab center to have lunch with Corey. She went into his office.
"Hi." She said.
"Hi." They hugged and kissed. "You know I never thought this would be one of the things I miss doing with you."
"Yeah I miss the little things to."
"A lot of people around here miss you."
"I miss them to."
"Did you get your dress today?"
"Yeah."
"I can't wait to see it."
"I can't wait for you to see it."
"Are you sure about this writing our own vows thing?"
"I think it's romantic."
"I don't know if I'll be good at it."
"You lead seminars and stuff every day."
"Yeah but that's not as important as standing in front of all our family and friends, telling them how much I love you."
"I'm sure you'll do fine." "Whatever you say I'll love."
"I hope so."
"I will."
"Have you thought about the baby thing anymore?"
"I haven't really had the time." "I know you want a baby but I'm still on the fence."
"Everything will be fine."
"It's not just that."
"What is it?"
"Well I'm wrestling again so I think I wanna wait longer."
"Ok." She could tell he was disappointed.
"Is it?"
"Yeah."
"Corey I love you." "We will eventually have a baby." "We're still young we have plenty of time."
"I know."
"Don't we have fun practicing?" She said as she kissed him.
"Yeah." "You're right." "I love you."
"I love you to." They kissed.
The next night AJ was in the arena parking lot. She was pulling her bag behind her.
"Hey." John said coming up beside her.
"Hi."
"I got the invitation to the wedding."
"Good."
"I never really pictured you marrying someone named Cornelius." He said smiling.
"Shut up." She said smiling. "He hates being called Cornelius." "He didn't want his full name on the invitations." "He didn't even tell me his real name was Cornelius until we'd been dating six months."
"We're supposed to get a bad storm right around show ending time."
"Great and I left my umbrella in my room."
After the show AJ left the arena. It'd been pouring ever since she left. She'd been waiting for a half hour. It showed no signs of letting up. She finally decided to make a run for it. She got soaked. She was shivering when got into the open elevator. She went up to her floor. She saw John unlocking his room. He looked at her.
"Get caught in the rain?" He asked.
"Yeah."
"Here come inside and I'll grab you a towel." They went inside. "Here." He said handing her a towel.
"Thanks." She put it around her shoulders.
"You're shivering."
"I'm freezing." He put his hands on both of her arms and rubbed them. "I guess that'll teach me to always carry a spare umbrella."
"Yeah." "Is that any better?"
"Yeah thanks."
"No problem." "AJ."
"Hmm." They looked at each. Slowly they were coming closer to each other. AJ's cell phone rang snapping her back to reality. "I gotta go." "Hello?" "Hi Corey." She said as she walked out the door.
