(I have returned from my dark hole)

The next morning I woke up to chattering downstairs. I put on my slippers and went to investigate.

Once I was close enough I was able to hear Aryia's voice. No one else was talking back so I assumed he was in the phone.

I stood atop the stairs, listening to my fiancé talk.

"I can't do this on my own! I NEED the help!"

"Because she's pregnant! I cannot make a pregnant lady do work!"

"Ask her? What do you mean ask her? I am NOT going to ask my pregnant fiancé to do planning for our wedding!"

After that I decided to intervene by walking down the stairs.

"I got to go, Kev." Aryia says noticing me walking down, and hangs up the call.

"Good morning, Princess. Did you sleep well?" He asked me offering an arm to assist me the rest of the way.

"Yes." I gladly accept his offer. "I'm all well rested and ready to plan a wedding." I smiled giving away the hint I heard him.

"Honey, I can't possibly ask you to do that...your pregnant. I've heard wedding planning is a lot of stress." Aryia told me.

I assured him I was fine with it. "I promise it's alright. Besides we both have to have input. We can't plan this faster if only one person is making calls."

Aryia nodded, finally giving up. "You're right, it's your wedding too."

I smiled at my fiancé. "I'll go get my notepad."

Once I came back downstairs, I went into the kitchen with my notepad and pen.

Aryia was waiting for me ready to begin.

"Alright first going on the notepad is the list of things we need to plan. Just to keep us more organized."

"Right." Aryia agreed.

"So we need a venue." I started writing on the list.

"Catering!" Aryia blurted.

"Yes catering. We also need music."

"Well need a reception location too, in case the venue we choose doesn't have the room for it!"

"Yes, but let's try to look at venues that have space. If not it's totally okay."

"Right." Aryia nodded.

"We need to work on a guest list, so we can send out our save the date cards." I scribbled in the pad.

"Don't forget our theme, color, your dress and my tux!"

"Well dress and tuxedo, that was kind of a given. I was gonna pull together some girls to go with me once we got out color sorted."

"I think since we're pregnant...well you are..but I think we should do a sort of blue."

"Aryia that's brilliant! Let's do like...a lighter blue?"

"What ever you want honey, your girls will be wearing it."

"Yes and so will your guys. Either blue vests or ties."

"Vests look cooler." Aryia said.

"You're a dork!"

"No you are!"

"Bet you still love me though!" I stuck my tongue out at him.

"I do."
