Love Isn't Always Fair (A Ashley Purdy Love Story) *On Hold*

Chapter 45: I Love You Memaw

Izzy’s POV

I shot from bed hearing the phone ring. I climbed out of bed not even bothering to cover up my naked body and grabbed it off the hook. “Hello?” I said. “Hi, is this Isabella Purdy?” the person asked. “Yes, this is she.” I said. “We need you to get down to St. Vincent Medical it is about your grandmother.” He said. I dropped the phone and ran to the closet to get dressed. Ashley woke up. “Izzy, what’s going on?” he asked. “Hospital. Grandma.” I said. He jumped up and got dressed. This is not how I wanted to spend the end of my anniversary.

*Earlier that morning*

“Mama.” I heard my babies coo as they poked my face. I giggled and kissed their faces while tickling them. “Where is daddy?” I asked. Austin gave me a paper. “Remember our first date? It was the best night of my life. Meet me downstairs for some breakfast. I love you.” It read. I headed downstairs with the kids and found a beautiful breakfast made for me and the kids. It was a cute Italian breakfast. I found another note. “Oh, did I mention that I made you a nice Italian breakfast? Matt will be by in an hour for the kids. I have their bags packed and everything. I will be back in two hours to pick you up for our wonderful day together.” It read. I smiled and looked to see a present. I opened up the gift and found a picture frame. I read the picture, it said Dates That Changed Our Lives along the top and Our First Date, Our First Kiss, First Time We Made Love, The Day I Asked You To Be My Wife, We Said “I do”, When We Met Our Little Miracles and How Long I Expect Us To Last down the picture. All of it had the exact dates when everything happened and the last one said forever. I smiled and placed it on the fire place. I ate my breakfast and fed the kids. I got them dressed and heard the door ring. “Who is it?” I yelled. “It is your loving brother.” I heard Matt yell. I laughed. “Come in.” I said. He came in and up the stairs. “Who is ready for a fun day with their Uncle Matt and Andy?” Matt asked. The kids raised their hands. I laughed and helped him out to the car. Once the kids were strapped in, I hugged Matt and thanked him. I waved as they pulled out of the driveway and headed inside to get dressed. I shower and slipped on some sexy undergarments. I pulled on a pair of ripped short shorts and my iron cross sweater from Ashley’s Outlaw Collection. I pulled on my black cowboy boots and curled my hair. I smiled and slipped my phone in my pocket. I headed downstairs and waited for Ashley. Just as I was about to sit down Ashley came through the door holding the bunny stuffed animal he won me on our first date. I smiled and hugged it. “Where are we going?” I asked. “The fair.” He said. I smiled and we climbed into the car. We got to the fair grounds and ran to the roller coasters first. I was having a blast running around and acting like a teenager again. Of course, Ashley had to win me another stuffed animal. This time the Jamaican banana. We rode the Ferris wheel and stopped at the top. He leaned over and kissed me. I kissed back as the sparks went flying. He placed the same necklace he gave me that night around my neck. I smiled and we headed home to get ready for dinner. Well Ashley ordered in. It is a surprise though as to what it is. We drove home and went for the shower. Let’s just say we did a lot more than showering. We climbed out of the shower and I sat on the bed wrapped in my towel. Ashley sat behind me and started brushing out my long blonde hair. He snipped some of my dead ends off and fixed my bangs. He finished and I kissed him. “Thank you.” I said. “You’re welcome.” He said. We then went our separate ways to get ready. I blow dried my hair and straightened it. I placed my flower headband on my head and pulled my dress on. I smiled and slipped on my white madden girl wedges. I did my makeup quickly and slipped my wedding ring back on. I looked at myself. Content with my look I headed downstairs and saw a trail of rose petals. I saw a white rose and picked it up. I walked out back to the patio and it was lit up with candles. I looked out towards the yard and saw Tokyo and Killer running around in cupid costumes. I laughed and they ran over to me as if saying help us mommy. I kissed their heads and they ran off. Ashley came over with dinner and placed it on the table. “Dinner is served.” He said in a British voice. I laughed and sat down in my seat. He lifted up the domes and it was our dinner from our first date. “You remembered?” I asked. “Yes, of course I did, you had the Fettuccini Con Capesante and I had the Spaghetti Latini.” He said. I smiled and kissed him. We started eating dinner and it tasted amazing. “I want to start Melody on dance lessons when she gets older if that is alright with you.” I said. “As long as she can take art classes too.” He said. “Of course.” I said. “I’m glad we have all of our family out here now. We have your grandparents and my grandma and all the guys and my parents.” I said. “I love how our family is so close. Thank you for joining my family.” He said. “Thank you for joining mine.” I said. We finished eating and he pressed a remote. All of a sudden, Lucky started playing throughout the speakers in our backyard. “May I have this dance, Mrs. Purdy?” he asked reaching his hand towards me. “You may, Mr. Purdy.” I said placing my hand in his. We got up and he spun me around. He held me in his arms as we swayed to the music. I rested my head back on his chest. “Happy Anniversary.” He said. “Happy Anniversary.” I said. We finished dancing and I decided to give Ashley his gift. It is a picture frame with three maps; where we met, where we got engaged and where we got married each with pictures from that date. He opened it and his jaw dropped, tears came to his eyes. “I love it.” He said. I looked at the first picture of us from Warped Tour. We were both sweaty and gross. He had his arms wrapped around my neck and his chin resting on my head. Andy took that picture of us. The one from us getting engaged was us kissing with fireworks going off in the background and the one from our wedding when we smashed the cake into our faces. He kissed me passionately. “I love it and you.” He said. He ran into the house and came back with his guitar. “I heard this song the other day and it made me think of you.” He said. He started playing You & I (Nobody In The World) by John Legend.
