After Forever & Ever

Chapter 127

Hardin-Present

Holy fuck were engaged....I'm so fucking happy.

Laying in bed next to my fiancé is fucking incredible. And it went exactly how I had hoped and I think she felt the same.

I just keep looking at her and her hand with her ring and I feel like I have everything I could have ever wanted.

I feel like I wasn't supposed to make it to this point and I'm so thankful I did.

I feel goosebumps still coursing over me I just can't believe I get to marry her.

I feel like I barely sleep and in the morning I wake up and pull her close to me. "Good morning fiancé." I say to her.

"Good morning fiancé" she's says right back gently kissing me.

I refuse to bring anything up about what she said while she was in New York and she doesn't say anything either. I'm hoping that was just the alcohol talking and not how she really feels and things are perfect I don't want to ruin this high I'm on with her.

The morning is spent eating breakfast out on the patio with Emery.

"What do you think about a fall wedding, but super intimate and small?" She asks me.

"Sounds perfect babe." I reply.

"And Emery could be our flower girl and.." she says and I interrupt.

"Wow you aren't wasting any time." I say to her.

"I'm just excited to marry my best friend." She tells me and I lean over and kiss her.

"Good." I reply.

We spend the rest of the day just completely consumed by one another. Vance took Emery for the day so we could celebrate our engagement.

And I mean we do...we celebrated a lot ;).

I get a call around 4PM and it's the label asking me if we finished the song. I said no and they said they would give me until midnight tonight to send them something or they were dropping me.

I don't want to ruin today by having to spend the rest of it with Savannah. But this is really important to me and I can't exactly afford to get dropped.

So I agree....but now I have to break the news to Tessa.

She's in the living room and as I walk in she has DVDs sprawled out over the coffee table.

"I want to watch Pretty woman first, then the notebook and then I'll let you choose the third movie." She says all in one breath.

I have a seat and gently kiss her trying to break the news.

"Tess I'm so sorry I have to finish the song by midnight or the label is going to drop me." I tell her.

I can tell she is immediately disappointed.

"It's okay it's fine I have a lot to unpack and some errands to run anyways." She quickly says.

"I'm sorry I'll make it up to you." I tell her.

"Yea..Yea no it's fine." She says as she gets up and grabs her purse and keys and heads towards the door.
