Princess - A Chmergess Story

Chapter 13

Sharna's POV
I'm sitting in my bunk when I get a call from Peta.

Sharna
Peta

Heyyy babe I had this great idea

Will I like this great idea?

Yes you'll love it

Okay, then let's here it

We should meet up and then go shopping

Go shopping? You're like 10 months pregnant!

Okay that is an I'm exaggeration. I'm like 8 and a half months pregnant

Exactly, Mom. We shouldn't go shopping.

Pleeasssee nothing's gonna happen

Fine. It's not my fault if you start giving birth in the middle of a boutique

Yeah. So when should we do this?

You had this idea and never picked out a date

Fine. When do you come to New York? Okay then how about the Wednesday you're here?

I take it that was all rhetorical

Yep

Okay well see you then love you P

See you love you bye

Bye

I hang up the phone, and check the date. I'm not sure if Peta had the dates correct, but we've been in New York for about two days. Today's Wednesday, so tomorrow we go shopping. I overheard Jenna was, too. I didn't feel like inviting her, though, because I just wanted it to be us two. I head over to the couches, and I sit and play a game on my phone.
"Hey, babe," Val says, putting his arm around me.
"Hello."
"Who was that?"
"Peta."
"So what'd you guys plan?" He asks. I laugh, because he knows us so well.
"Tomorrow we're going to have a girls day and go shopping."
"She's like 15 months pregnant."
"I told her that, and she basically said there's no stopping her."
"Sounds like Pete."
"It does."
He kisses me on the temple, and we sit in comfortable silence. Everyone went out for drinks. I kind of wanted to, but I'm really tired. I figured I could sleep or something. Because we stayed back, Laurie did as well, and Alan stayed with her. Sometimes she goes along if there's a restaurant and convinces someone to not drink with her. After a while, I fall asleep in Val's arms.

Laurie's POV

Sharna and Val are asleep, and Alan and I are across from them on the other couch watching some movie. I don't pay attention to it because I'm on my phone. I'm on my phone, scrolling mindlessly through Instagram. Suddenly, a thought occurs.
"We should go on a another date," I comment.
"Agreed."
"Where though?"
"I don't think we can go out anytime soon. We'll be in big cities and people will see us."
"I know."
"Well, New Years is coming up, that'll be our date."
"Okay," I say, contently.
Alan puts his arm around me, and I fall asleep, too.

Sharna's POV
"Babe, wake up," Val says, running his fingers through my hair, like always. I groggily rub my eyes.
"Why?"
"I have an idea."
"And this idea couldn't wait?"
"Well we couldn't do it while Laurie and Alan are awake."
"Oh its one of those ideas.."
"No it's good."
"Well then what is it?"
"We should put on a famous tour bus date."
"Like they did for us?"
"Yeah except we should surprise them."
"Lets group chat it."

Group chat (yayyy these are fun to write)

Sharna: OKAY GUYS
