Sleepless In South Carolina

Untitled Part 15

"I have to tell you something too." Braylen says. "Well can I tell you what I have to first." I say. "I love you but I really feel like I should say mine first." He says. "But I th-." "I got us a secret getaway planned we leave tomorrow night!" He blurts out. "Wow that's.." "Amazing isn't it, it'll be so fun." He says. "Yeah that it will be." I say. About pass out on the floor. I was going to tell him but he wouldn't let me get it out and now we are going on a trip and he still doesn't know. I'm better at this keeping secrets thing than I ever knew. Braylen takes our plates and washes them in the sink. " What you want to do today babe when I get off of work?" He asks. "I um I don't know what do you want to do?" "I say we go to a movie." He says. "Can we go and see Karma?" I ask. "Whatever you want babe, let me get dressed." He says. Once Braylen comes out he's dressed in a nice suit and tie. He kisses my forehead. "See you tonight babe." He says. "See you tonight." I say. I watch him walk out the door. I call my mom and ask her advice. "Mom?" I question as she picks up. "Yes darling how is my pregnant girl." She says. "I'm good but I need some advice on Braylen." I say. "Are you eating healthy?" She asks. "Yes mother I wanted to ask you about Braylen that's why I called." I say. "Yes darling what about Braylen?" She asks. "Well when I tried to tell him about the baby he told me that he planned a secret getaway trip tomorrow night." I say. "Tell him on the trip he'll definitely be too far in then." My mother says chuckling. "There's no such thing as too far in mom." I say sorrowfully. "Sweet heart he loves you stop worrying." She reassures me. "I hope so mom." I say. We say our good byes and hang up. I sit here an contemplate how and when to tell Bray. I think for a while and I figure out how and when to do it.
