My cousin

Chapter 14- Pissed off Andy

"What do you mean 'what the fuck'?" asks Clair looking at him.
"I mean why the hell are you marrying him?" says Andy raising his voice .
"I'm marrying him because I love him"
"Oh please you don't know what love is"
"Oh and you do. You obviously didn't love me when you left. And I was pretty damn stupid to give you another chance thinking maybe you do. But you know what. Screw you Andrew. Dont ever talk to me ever again. No more chances. I'm done" Clair grabbed her phone and walked out the restaurant and to her car.
"Clair wait. I didn't mean it"
She ignored him and slid into her car. She put it in reverse and left him in her rearview mirror.
While she was at home her phone kept going off from texts and calls from Andy.
Damian kept asking Clair if everything was okay and she replied with a simple yes. She went through her days planning her wedding with Damian by her side. She invited Juliet but told her not to bring Andy. Juliet did ask why but Clair refused to say.
"So should we have Black roses or red?" asks Damian with a pen dangling from his lips.
"How about both. Mix them together" said Clair tapping her pen.
"Hmm. That would actually look pretty awesome. Definitely"
Clair hummed a response and continued to look at venues for her wedding. Almost every thought led to Andy which just put her in a bad mood.
"Babe. What's wrong?"
Clair looked at his blue eyes and saw concern. She hated lying to him but she wanted to keep this to herself. She still loved Andy and didnt want him hurt knowing what Damian would do.
"Nothing. I promise, it's just all this wedding planning has me stressed"
"How about I take you out tomorrow? We can go do something"
"I'd love that. But now I'm going to sleep because I am really tired" she said getting up.
"Go ahead. I'll be there soon"
He kissed her forehead and pushed her into their room.
A few days after she left the restaurant they made the decision that since they are getting married they should live together.
So as she dressed for bed and waited to curl up into Damian she slowly started to drift into sleep until she felt the bed dip then Damians arm snake around her waist.
"Good night baby. I love you"
"I love you" and with that she fell asleep.

The next morning when Clair woke up she did not feel Damian curled up next to her. She turned over and saw a note next to her head on his pillow 

Dear Clair, 

           Sorry i got called into work early. i wont be home till maybe late tonight or early in the morning. 

and i know i dont like him but you need to talk to andy. i love you see you soon

Clair glanced over the note again and decided that she did need to talk to Andy , so she grabbed her phone and dialed his number. after a few rings his phone went to voicemail.

"Are you serious Andrew" she instead dialed Juliets number.

A few rings later she picked up.

"Hey girl! Whats up?"

"Hey wheres Andy?"

"Oh hes in the shower. Why, have you finally decided to talk to him"

"Uh yes actually. Can you tell him to call me when he gets out please?"

"Absolutely. Bye babes"

"Bye"

Clair hung up the phone and went to the kitchen and got the cereal off the top of the fridge and the milk from inside. She fixed her food and sat in front of the t.v and watched paw patrol until she saw her phone light up on the coffee table. She reached over and grabbed it and saw it was Andy.

"Hello" she said when she answered the phone.

"Hey, Juliet said you wanted to talk to me"

She took and deep breath then answered.

"Yeah, Meet me at starbucks in about an hour. I wanna talk to you there okay?"
"Yeah okay, ill see you soon"

And with that they hung up. Clair finished her cereal and got up to go change. She wore a regular black long sleeve with skinny jeans and a black beanie. She grabbed her phone and keys then left. When she pulled up she saw Andy's black sidan sitting out front. When she walked in she saw him sitting in a far corner booth with two drinks. She walked over and sat in front of him. He looked up from his phone and smiled.

"Hey " He said sitting his phone down

"Hi" Clair responded weakly.

"How have you been?"

"Good. Look I'm going to cut to the chase and say I'm sorry i snapped at you. i was just mad that you didnt aprove of me marrying Damian. i love him Andy and im marrying him wether you like it or not. I would like for you to be there and support me , but if you dont want to i completely understand. I just wanted you to know that"

He sat there stunned for a while then finally shook out of it.

"Clair im sorry i got mad. i guess i didnt like that you where grown up. I miss when you where little and thought boys had cooties. Now your grown and almost twenty and getting married. I will definitly come to your wedding and i would like to hang out with Damian so we can get along better"

Clair actually smiled a smile today and nodded. For the rest of the time they where there they laughed and joked about the things they did together when they where young and what they are doing now.

When Clair got home she went to the kitchen and started on dinner. Since she was alone tonight she cooked spaghetti.

When she fixed her plate and sat down there was a knock at her door. She got up to answer it and when she opened the door she saw someone she has not saw since high school.

"Nick?"

"Hey Clair" Nick was 6' tall with long blonde hair and blue eyes.

"W-what are you doing here?"

"I cant come see my girl?"

"Okay one I am not your girl and two how did you find out where i lived?"

"Does it matter. Can we just go out for dinner?"

"No. Get off my porch"

"Why don't you make me?"

"If she does not i will" said Damian from behind him.Nick turned around and looked Damian in the eyes,

"I thought you where working Damian"

"I wanted to surprise you. they let me off early"

"Oh okay. Nick please leave"

Nick gave Clair one last look and shoved past Damian. Clair moved a side and let him in. When he walked in her turned around with a look of confusion and anger.

"I know what your thinking. He is one of my ex-boyfriends. I have not talked to him in so long I honestly have no idea how he got my address or even got here. That dude is like broke"

Damian did not say anything. He just continued to stare at her.

"I'm going to take a shower. Whenever you get out of your broody mood you can join me" said Clair walking past him.

When she gets in her room she goes straight to the bathroom she turns on the water to not very hot but still hot. She stripped down and climbed in. After a while she hears the door open and a few moments later Damian climbs in behind her and wraps his arms around her and pulls her to his chest.

"I'm sorry if you thought I was mad at you . I was just pissed to see another guy at your door, And honestly I would of rather seen Andy instead of that Nick guy" Damian whispered in her ear.

She turned around to face him and wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Its okay. I know it was in your best intentions to just punch him to a pulp. and i almost let you. Maybe next time i will"

He chuckled then grabbed the shampoo and squirted some in his hand and started washing Clair's hair.

"I love you" and the look that he gave her , she knew that he meant it.

"I love you" and she me
