Second time is a Charm

Chapter 16

I felt feathery kisses on my face and lips and neck, I tried pushing whoever was trying to disturb my sleep, but they persisted.

"Good morning sweetheart..... rise and shine....." Gale said.

"NO...... let me sleep" I groaned moving deeper into the sheets.

"Our flight leaves in 3 hours. We need to get there in the next hour honey..... come on " he said pulling my hands and trying to get me out of the bed.

"Flight..... where are we going?" I asked suddenly awake and sitting straighter in bed.

He smiled "Our honeymoon !!!" he replied

"Of course our honeymoon , but where?" I questioned, getting up and heading into the bathroom.

There was a knock on the door, and he went to answer it not paying much attention to my question.

"I ordered us some coffee. We don't have time to eat, we can grab something in the airport." He said as he pushed the coffee cart inside.

It was at the airport that I had realized where we were going. I was too shocked to react initially.

"We are going to Hawaii?" I kept repeating again and again, until we reached the counter to check in.

"You never saw the beach. So I thought this would be a nice holiday." He replied smiling.

I couldn't control my happiness and jumped up and gave him a big hug and a hot kiss, right there in the line.

"We are in the line Crystal, Behave" he replied blushing and pushing me away from him.

"Newly weds?" the lady at the counter asked.

I nodded my head grinning as I held on to Gales hand. He remembered that I had never visited a beach and made the effort to surprise me with this. I felt my heart calming and reassuring me why I loved him in the first place.

Our honeymoon was like the initial days of our dating. So wonderful and happy. We had a great time, exploring the island, doing various activities and just relaxing. We were even getting comfortable with each other in the bedroom.

The last night before we left for home, we were lying on the bed, relaxed in each others arms.

"Gale, do you really think I am an angry person, who always lashes out at you?"

"What?, No... where is this coming from?" he asked

"Isn't that the reason, you had your Dad handle the prenup when you weren't in town?" I questioned.

He sat up facing me as soon as he heard the words prenup. He looked at me angry.

"What Prenup? I didn't ask for a prenup. Did you sign anything? Who gave you the prenup?" He seemed confused and fired questions randomly.

"Well your Dad and Mom did. When you went to Roseville, before our wedding. Your dad called me home, and handed me the papers. He said you asked him to have me sign those. You didn't want to ask me yourself because, you didn't want to handle my anger" I said.

"No ...... No No No. I didn't ask for a prenup. I told them I didn't want one when they suggested it too." He replied shaking his head, he was not able to believe what they did.

'Are you saying they lied to me and went behind your back with the whole thing?" I asked getting angry.

"I am sorry honey. I didn't know. Had I known I wouldn't have forced you to sign them."
