I woke up in a daze from what happened the night before. I turned to my side to see Aaron still sleeping and snoring  on his back with his hair everywhere and his body showing everywhere that the Lord blessed him. 

My man, officially. 

I was gentle in getting up and going to the bathroom. Stiff from last night I quickly peed and started the shower water. Before I got in I set some music to play and door dashed breakfast and a plan B since last night's activities went unprotected. 

As I stood under the water I replayed last night. The argument, the make up, then the sex. Was that a healthy way to deal with things? Was I wrong for getting turned on at him apologizing and saying he cared for me? I didn't want to come off as desperate but then again he was my boyfriend now. To the rest of the world we were engaged but in our little secret we were finally together in some actual and real capacity. 

I thought about Tamryn and how I would break the news to her. If she would think it was a good idea given how fast everything is happening. She would probably say: 'You're making the most out of your situation. It's good to be in love with who you're marrying.'

Love... Marriage... I'm getting married and I'm probably falling in love with Aaron. It was exciting to finally have a love story of my own. But I still had to reveal everything of my past to Aaron.

The water started to run cold as I heard my phone ding. I got out of the shower to see that the food and the plan B was on the way to the house. Aaron's house? Our house. I brushed my teeth and put my hair in a low bun before wrapping a towel around myself.

I quickly exited the bathroom and moisturized my skin before putting on a simple outfit of leggings and a T shirt. Aaron was still knocked out sleeping and I didn't want to wake him just yet. Today was going to be busy for us, I had to go and approve new books, start researching wedding dress types and fabrics, and Aaron and I had another meeting with the wedding planner as well as a late night practice for him before his game tomorrow night. 

So I let him sleep for a few more minutes as I gathered up our room and went downstairs to meet the door dasher at the door. 

When the food came I gave him a cash tip on top of the digital one and set up the food on the table so that we could eat. I got waffles, eggs, fruit, bacon, sausage, and bagels. A whole spread since today would require a lot from us. After setting up the food I opened the plan B and downed it with some orange juice. I then went upstairs to wake Aaron.

I sat down on the side of the bed and gently squeezed his arm. "Bae wake up." I cooed at him. He shuffled a little in his sleep and it was so cute to me. He seemed really tired but he needed a good meal in him before he started his day.  "I got us breakfast its downstairs. You need to eat something." I shook him gently a few more times before hearing him take a deep breath in and stretch. 

"Good morning my Dove." He said in his morning voice and I had to restrain myself from hopping on him and repeating last night's endeavors. 

"Good morning my man." I replied back. "I need you to get up please. We have a busy day ahead of us."

Aaron nodded his head and got up, still naked from last night, and headed to the bathroom. I heard the shower water start and the toilet flush. I was about to exit the bathroom when I heard him call my name. I went to the bathroom door and peaked my head inside. "Yes?" I sweetly said as I watched him brush his teeth. He spit and turned to me smiling at me wearing his T shirt. 

"Don't forget we have to get you a new car."  He said before he went back to brushing his teeth. 

I stood there dumbfounded, I forgot completely about my car and it still probably being on the side of the road made me realize that everything happened so fast. "Uh, I was just gonna take it to the shop to get it fixed." I said lowly.
