"Wow, you look stunning." Luke smiled in awe. This was probably about the tenth dress I have tried on.
"I like this." I said smiling into the mirror.
"You're ass looks good in that too." He said. I rolled my eyes.
"You said that ten times already." The lady smiled as she tensed.
"Sorry." He said putting his hand up in surrender as the other continued petting Hollis' hair as she was asleep on his lap.
"I think I'm getting this one." I smiled turning around to face Luke.
"Good choice." The lady smiled. I followed her back into the dressing room and changed back into my regular clothes. I walked out of the dressing room and walked to Luke. "Okay so we'll go to the counter and you'll pay and you can take the dress home."
"Okay." I nodded and followed her. Luke's arm wrapped around my waist and pushed Hollis in her stroller. Her head fell to the side as she let out a tiny snore.
"Okay so that would be a grand total of two thousand six dollars." The lady smiled. Luke let out a shaky breath. I handed her my credit card and she gave it back. She handed me a bag and handed it to me.
"Thank you." I said.
"Have a nice night." She smiled. We walked out of the store.
"Two thousand and six dollars? For a dress you will wear once?" He asked annoyed.
"Luke, it's going to be one of the days I remember for the rest of my life. My children being born and the day I get married, I will never forget. I already look like I stuffed two watermelons up my shirt. The last thing I want is to look pretty on my wedding day." I cried.
"Baby, I didn't mean to upset you. I know you want to look beautiful, and you are always." He smiled tucking a piece of hair behind my ear.
"Thank you." I whispered walking into the car.

"Baby, wake up." I was being shaken awake.
"No." I whined shoving my head into my pillow.
"Hollis is crying and she wants you, and she won't let me give her a bath, and now she's- HOLLIS GET SOME CLOTHES ON!!" Luke screamed running out the door. I sighed and sat up. I walked out of the bedroom and to the staircase.
"Hollis, get some clothes on or you won't get any more candy." I said. She ran up to me.
"I sorry mommy." She pouted and ran into her room.
"I don't know what I would do without you." Luke smiled placing a kiss to my lips.
"This house would have been burnt down a while ago if it wasn't for me." I laughed. Hollis walked out and smiled at me. I squatted down to her level. "Listen, you are going to do everything your father says so I can sleep, got it?"
"Yes momma." She nodded. I walked back into my bedroom and closed the door. I laid down and pulled the covers to my chin and threw a pillow over my head. I quickly went to sleep to the sound of someone falling.

I woke up and looked at the clock. 1:20. I sat up and walked out of the bedroom and saw Luke and Hollis sitting there watching sponge bob. I laughed and walked into the bathroom. I went pee and washed my hands and brushed my teeth. I walked to the living room where Luke and Hollis were sitting. I sat on the couch next to Luke and rested my head on his shoulder. "Good morning baby." He smiled playing with my hair.
