Chapter 21

*****6 months later*****

"Can you stop being so damn picky." I said and Ash groaned.

"It's my wedding I can be as picky as I want to be." Ash said as we looked at wedding dresses.
"You just want me to hurry so you can get back to your boyfriend." Ash said and I rolled my eyes.

"Forgive me for wanting to spend time with him since he had been in LA for 2 months." I said and Ash sighed.

"You happy he will be home?" Ash asked and I nodded.

"Yeah because we only got 4 months together and he had to leave. Now getting to come home the weekend you got engaged was nice but it was only 2 days." I said and Ash nodded and looked down at her engagement ring.

"I can't believe Sebastian proposed already." Ash asked and I smiled.

"He loves you, of course he proposed. When you know you know." I said and Ash smiled at me.

"What about you and Chris? I mean it really should be you two." Ash asked and I sighed with a shrug.

"I guess he doesn't know yet." I said and Ash smacked me on my arm.

"Ow! Don't hit the maid of honor!" I said and we both gave a small laugh.

"You seriously are acting like you don't think he is ready to get married." Ash said.

"Well he needs to figure it out sooner rather than later. He wants kids, he needs to hurry up. I'm not getting any younger." I said and Ash groaned.

"You worry to much. Chris knows what he is doing." Ash said and I sighed.

"Okay back to you and your big day. What are you looking for?" I asked dreading the pickiest answer to come from her. After we looked for wedding dresses and then a bridesmaid dress for me in blue since she insisted her colors be a dusty blue and gold. Her wedding dress even had a faint gold tint to it since she didn't want to get married in white. Once we were done shopping I headed home. When I opened the door I was met by Dodger.

"Hey buddy." I said and he was excited to see me.

"Dad isn't back yet, you want to go for a walk?" I asked and he barked. I grabbed his leash and we went outside for our normal around the block walk. About halfway through our walk Dodger started to pull me more towards home and I was confused.

"Dodger, stop." I said fighting against him. Once we rounded to corner and got back towards my house Dodger broke free from me and went running to the house.

"DODGER!" I yelled running after him. Once I reached the house I saw Chris getting out of a car and Dodger running up to him. I stopped running and smiled. Chris was loving on Dodger and then looked at me. I rushed up to him and threw my arms around his neck, he wrapped his arms around my waist and picked me up.

"God it is so good to be home." Chris said and I smiled as he put me down and passionately kissed me.

"I'm so happy you are home too." I said and Chris smiled. I grabbed Dodger's leash and Chris got his suitcase and we headed inside. Once inside I got Dodger off his leash and Chris placed his suitcase by the hallway for the bedroom.

"So have you made the decision yet?" Chris asked and I sighed.

"Not yet, been kind of busy helping Ash plan her wedding." I said and Chris sighed.

"Liv, not that I don't like your place but I am starting to miss my own home." Chris said and I sighed.
"And you don't have a teenager to worry about moving." I said and Chris sighed.

"Wes is fine with moving! He told both of us he was! You need to find another excuse." Chris said and I looked at him in shock.

"Excuse?! You think that's what I am doing?" I asked and Chris shrugged.
