Love From Pain (A Logan Lerman story)

Chapter 23

“Baby?” I looked over at Logan as he walked me through the pebbled path leading to who knows where.

It’s the night before our wedding and it is so nerve racking that I am marrying Logan. We chose a nice park in New York that has a little privacy and has beautiful, colorful trees surrounding a breathtaking lake. The sun was setting at this time as we looked over the lake, hand in hand. I could feel his fingers play with the little ring on my finger.

I let out a sigh and smiled at Logan, totally at peace. This definitely was the right place.

“Yeah babe?” I asked him when he remained silent. He kept his gaze at the lake then looking into my eyes. His eyes were lighting up and seemed to be dancing. He had gotten a hair cut for the wedding and looked very clean cut. I just didn’t want to wait another minute to marry this man.

Then he looked back at the sky and let out a silent chuckle. I nudged him with my elbow and looked at him, egging on for him to tell me what’s on his mind.

“I’m so happy right now. Everything is in perfect alignment and is just…perfect. I can’t believe we are getting married.” He looked back at me and smiled. I hugged by arms around his one big arm as we continued to walk. “It seems so unreal.” Then I felt him lower his head to my forehead and give me a light, warm kiss.

The air was starting to grow colder and yet, it didn’t faze us. We were both from LA and yet we love a season we didn’t have. What can I say…we truly are meant for each other.

I smiled to myself then I heard Logan sigh. I looked up at him to see he had a straight face, no expression.

“Are you okay? No second thoughts right?” I said trying to joke around. He chuckled and smiled at me.

“Definitely not!” I stared at him as he stopped in front of a bench. “It's just…the whole Lexie thing has been bothering me.” I released his arms, except for my hand in his, and ran my free hand through my hair.

“Please, don’t even think about it. She isn’t worth it to be worrying about on the night of our wedding.” He seemed to think about what I said and then he looked at me, grinning.

“Okay Mrs. Lerman.” He said in his sexy voice making my face heat up and my finger tips start to tingle. Then he crashed his lips to mine, passionately kissing me and pulling me so I was straddling on top of him. Then without warning he pulled away holding my shoulders. “That reminds me.” he let out a sigh.

“What now?” I asked, as I looked at his lips, wanting more, and then back to his eyes.

“My mom and your mom told me that we have to spend tonight in separate hotel rooms.” Ugh I hate that tradition.

“Why? So I have to sleep in a big hotel room by myself? Where are you going to sleep?” I asked him.

“I’m going to be staying with my mom tonight, and I’ll get ready in her room. I’m sure your hotel room will be crowded with woman and of course Chuck, who is going to help you get ready.

The hotel we were staying at owned the park we are getting married in and they were more than happy to host the Lerman/Jones wedding. After the ceremony, in the park, we are having the reception in the ballroom the hotel has. It’s quite big and it’s just what we need, considering my mom invited the whole entire family and not to mention Logan’s family. Jeeze.

“Yeah I can’t wait for that.” I said in a sarcastic tone, even though I was really excited. Chuck is a professional beauty god. He is the one who helps with Logan’s wardrobe and makeup in his movies. Lisa called him in to help me out. I was insulted and yet excited by her gesture. Chuck went with us girls when we picked out my dress, and the bride-maids dresses.
