Secret Love
A Monchele Love Story
Chapter Fifteen-Married Now
-Cory-
After Lea and I have made our way out of the common area/entrance of FOX Glee, everyone gets into their cars and heads back to me and Lea’s house where some friends have been setting up for our (after) ceremony. When we get there, we walk out the back and are astonished at what we see. The trees surrounding the green grass are festooned with lights and ribbons and there are lots of little tables with seats around them in a circle and then the long table up the front-near where the band is-for Lea and I, the brides maids, maid of honour and best man. Lea quickly runs upstairs to change into a beautiful knee-length red dress, that she claims is much more comfortable than her actual wedding dress.
I squeeze Lea’s hand as we walk over to our seats. She smiles and winks at me.
The table that we’re sitting at is next to the huge patio where the band is setting up right now and where the small stage is where later on the best man, maid of honour and any others that want to will make their speeches. In front of the stage is a standard dance floor, where they’re laying out ‘fixable and flexible’ linoleum flooring for everyone to dance on.
Once everyone is seated and the meals have been served, my Dad gives a quick toast and we start eating.
A few waiters are passing around drinks. One of them comes over to Lea and me with a tray of champagne glasses and I gratefully take one. Lea reaches for one, but then takes her hand away as if instantly changing her mind.
“N-No thanks,” she says, avoiding eye contact and returning back to her meal.
“What was that?” I frown as I lean in closer to her.
Lea looks into my eyes and frowns. “What was what?” she asks, oblivious. “I just didn’t want champagne.”
“Okay...” I shrug it off, but I know Lea is hiding something.
-Lea-
After everyone has finished their meals, a few people-including both of my parents-give toasts and then we decide to have a little dance before dessert.
Cory reaches for my hand, helping me out of my seat.
“Lea!” Dianna runs up to me and grabs my wrist of the hand Cory’s holding. “I need to talk to you.”
I realise what she wants to talk about and glance at Cory.
“Can’t it wait, Di?” Cory asks.
“No, I have to talk to Lea now!” Dianna exclaims. “It’ll be quick; I promise and then you can have a dance.”
I look towards Cory as he sighs. “Fine,” he says. “But be as quick as possible.”
I nod and kiss his cheek.
Dianna drags me by my wrist quickly inside me and Cory’s house and we go upstairs to my bedroom where Dianna closes the door behind us.
“Ok, spill! When did it happen?” Dianna asks.
I sigh. “I don’t know, I think about a week ago...that’s what the doctor said,” I reply.
“Did you pee on the stick?” says Dianna suddenly.
I frown. “Yes, but why is that important?”
“Whatever,” she rolls her eyes. “Anyway, when are you going to tell Cory?”
“I don’t know!” I exclaim, holding my left hand to my forehead. “We weren’t even trying to get pregnant and then when I found out I was so surprised that I forgot to tell him...a-and I didn’t know how to, anyway.”
