"I really don't understand you women."

"What do you mean?"

Sean and I were tangled up together in my bed, watching Confessions of a Shopaholic. We had just gotten to the part where Rebecca was leaving Suze's wedding.

"Like, you guys like shopping way too much." I scoff at him. "I'm serious, it's not healthy."

"Oh please. We're women, we give you men everything. Don't you think we deserve to do what we've always dreamed of doing?" I turn from the movie, looking up at him.

"What you guys dream of doing is wasting money on a bunch of clothes that you're only going to wear once." He shakes his head. Realizing my frowned face, he grabs my index finger, putting it to his lips. "I'm sorry. Did I offend you?" He takes my finger into his mouth, sucking on it.

"A little." I whisper, too hypnotized as his tongue skillfully licks the tip of my finger.

"But do you forgive me now?" He smirks.

"Yes." I was breathing heavily. Who knew just licking and sucking my finger could be such a turn on for me. I quickly turn my eyes from his lips to the TV screen, where Luke hands Rebecca the green scarf, before kissing her.

Planting one last kiss to my finger, he pushes me off his lap, between his legs, with my back to his front. "Well that was a good movie." He nibbles on my earlobe.

"Yeah, it was." I sigh, letting my head fall onto his shoulder. "Hey, have you ever thought about our future together?"

"Um, kind of. Not really that much, cause I'm always stuck in the moment with you." He grins. "But yeah, I think about our future."

"Really?"

"Yeah. Sometimes I tell myself I think I want to marry you, like right now." He stares at nothing, in his own little world. "Since your mom was so excited to get you married, I thought it wouldn't make much of a big deal, if I was the one you married."

I look up at him. Sean, as my husband. What a life that would be. An amazing life.

"I would marry you, but not right now."

"Why not?" He pouts.

"What, you want to get marry now?" He nods enthusiastically. "Sean, babe, we can't though."

"Oh." He slowly and quietly gets up from behind me, before walking into the bathroom and shutting the door behind him.

What was that all about? Was he mad? Because there really isn't anything to be mad about. It's just that it's too soon to be getting married. Marriage isn't something that's on my mind right now. Now that we've convinced my mom to forget about the marriage with Liam, it's best to leave that alone, and not come back to that topic.

I rise up from my seat on the edge of the bed, and take the DVD out. Walking over to the stack of movies, I search for one that I've haven't seen in awhile. 17 again. I haven't seen that one since the trip with the guys. It's my all time favorite movie, why not watch it, I mean, it has Zac Efron in it, so how could you not like it.

I needed something that made me feel young again, that made me feel like I didn't need to worry about anything. I was getting old.

I slid the DVD into the DVD player, before heading back to the bed. I should be going to see what's up with Sean, but I think he needs some time. He needs to realize now is not the time to be worrying about marriage. I'd rather live in the moment.

I hit play, snuggling myself up to my giant Harry Styles pillow. Right now, he was my only comfort.

By the time the movie's nearly over, I've used about a thousand tissues, and that was only during the scene of when they were in court. And well, Sean still hadn't came out yet.
