"Lizzie! Can I go to Chloe's?" Gabbi yells. Although I'm only in the kitchen.
"Whatever," I answer. I haven't gotten much sleep the past few days because Michelle is sick. She's up every night fussing and Harry sleeps right through all of it. John sent out the engagement photos to the guests. The two chosen fans were super excited to be invited.
"Harry! Hurry up I need to take a shower!" I shout shout up steps. He comes pounding down the stairs at the same time he's buckling his belt. "Thank you. You need to watch her eat and keep her from fussing."
Darcy and Enya are taking their morning nap. So it's just Michelle who's awake. I go upstairs and grab a change of clothes and my towel. I go into the bathroom and start the shower. I strip off my clothes and step into the hot water. I lather up and rinse off. I wash my hair and rinse it out. After I'm clean I just stand there. I don't move, I let the water run down my face and back.
Eventually I shut off the water and get out. I wrap myself in my towel and sit on the ground. "I'm not ready to get married in 3 months. I can't do this. I'm already raising Gabbi. I add triplets to this mess. I've screwed myself." I sit on the ground and yell at myself over and over. Eventually I stop yelling at myself and dry off. I stand up and get dressed. I look in the mirror and put my happy face back on. "3 months from now we'll be on our honeymoon. Away from all of this," I whisper to myself. I take a deep breath and open the bathroom door. I throw my clothes in my room and wrap my hair in the towel.
As I walk downstairs I hear Harry talking to Michelle. When I enter the kitchen he is playing with her. "Hey baby, thanks for keep an eye of her," I whisper. He smiles and hands me some flowers.
"Here, for all your troubles. You are a super mom truly amazing," he says as he holds out some roses. I take them and smile.
"Thank you Harry, I love you," I whisper before giving him a kiss.
"Your welcome. Now do you still want the wedding in Hawaii? Or can we do the honeymoon in Hawaii?" he asks as he takes my hand. He leads me to the couch and we sit.
No, I wanna have a wedding on the beach. In California," I whisper. "Does that work for you?"
"Yea, where are we having the reception?" he asks as he pulls out his phone.
"Probably, the same place Erin had her New Year's party. I loved it there," I reply with a smile.
"Ah so your keeping it simple?" he asks with a smile
"How bout no. That's just the venues. We still got a lot more stuff to do. Let's go on a date. And explore all of the beaches we can have the wedding at. Have you heard of glass beach," I blab all of this stuff to him.
"Well, let's get the girl's dressed and take them along. Mom is busy so she can't watch kids this week," he says as we both stand up. I grab Michelle from the ground and we all head upstairs. I slip some clothes on her and Harry changes the other girls.
"Ready?" I ask as I grab the carseat. "The girls are 11 months and are getting heavy" We take them to the car and put them in.
"Where to first?" Harry asks as he starts the van. I shrug and he pulls out of the driveway.
"Well let's just drive around down by thr beaches," I suggest as I pull my shades on. He agrees and we drive to the shore line.
When we get on the highway closest to the beaches we stop and pull over. "Do you like this one?" Harry asks. It's full of people and trash. I look at him with "really?" face. We start the van back up and keep driving.
"Harry, I gotta give Michelle her medicine. You dod bring it right?" I ask. He tosses the liquid bottle to me and I climb in back by the girls. I give Michelle her medicine and climb back up by Harry. He pulls over once again and I look at the beach. It's quiet and hidden from the view of others.
"Wanna go check it out?" he asks. I unbuckle and walk down to the beach while he stays with the girls. As I set foot on the sand I groan when I see all the trash and dead fish. I walk back to the can and shake my head no. He starts the car up and we get going.
***
We have viewed over 10 beaches and there all bleh. We are on our way to glass beach in Fort Bragg. The girls are sleeping and I'm zoning out. It's around 2pm and the girls have yet to eat.
"Harry, please tell me we brought bottles with milk," I groan. His eyes widen and he mutters the work fuck.
"I'm sorry Lizzie, there on the table. Why don't you just nurse them?" he apologizes. I sigh and unbuckle. I climb back by Enya who's in the front row. She is actually awake.
"You never sleep. Do you?" I chuckle as I pop a breast out then unbuckle her. She latches on immediatly and I buckle up for safety.
"Damn, maybe that's why I proposed and made babies with you," Harry chuckles from thw driver seat. I kick his seat and frown.
"You csn have the ring back if you want," I reply with a smirk.
"I also married you fo your eyes, your ass, your smile--"
"You married me for my looks!?" I scream.
"No no no, that's not it. I also married you for your sense of humor. Your laugh. Your amazing personality. I married you because your the best fan I've ever met. You were so kind. Behind all that face paint I saw you. A girl who was doing amazing things for her sister. Because she loved her. I saw a girl who was hurting yet didnt show it. So her sister would stay happy. Along the line. Yes I did have sex with you. Yes you did get pregnant. But I wouldn't want my girls to have any other mother. They are gonna have your personality. Your looks. That is why I chose you. That's why we are here looking at beachs in February. Because I chose you. I love you Lizzie. I really do!" he shouts back at me. I sit there nursing Enya with tears rolling down my face. He looks in the rear view mirror and smiles at me. "I love you Lizzie."
"I love you too," I whisper. A tear rolls down my cheek and lands on Enya's cheek. She looks at me and holds her hand up. She grabs the cheek and wipes off the tears. She's my angel. My little princess is Michelle. And my little diva is Darcy. I love them all.
She stops sucking and lets go. I buckle her back up and climb into the back row. I unbuckle Darcy and nurse her.
"Harry, I'm sorry for yelling at you. I'm just over whelmed," I apologize.
Darcy finishes in 5 minutes and I nurse Michelle last. I didnt want to spread her cold. She only eats a little and starts screaming. I hush her back to sleep and buckle her up. I crawl back to the passenger seat and buckle up.
"I just thought of where we could have our wedding," I say as the light bulb burns bright.
"Where? I wanna stop driving all over," he asks.
"The secret spot, the beach behind the woods. Where we went swimming 2 years ago October!" I squeal.
"Your secret spot?" he asks. I nod and squeal a yes. "That would be awesome! It's big enough too!" he replies. I write it down in the wedding binder and I smile.
"I love you," I whisper.
"I love you too," he whispers back.
