Why Do I Put Up With You!

~Eighteen~

It didn't take long for everyone and their dogs to find out that Criss Angel was engaged, and while he was off working hard at The Luxor, I was working hard at keeping the Paparazzi off our property trying to take shots of Criss Angels fiance and what she does all day while he's at work, trying to make stuff up to keep the celebrity profiling and drama up close and personal for the public to view. But Criss warned me about it before we even were dating heavily, and I let the public know very quickly what I did in my free time was none of their damned business because I wasn't the celebrity, and they needed to show some fucking respect, not that I had anything to hide, because I didn't...I just didn't need them all up in my private life and publicizing personal and some perverted pictures of me for everyone to see.

One of the Paparazzi scum even stooped low enough to take several pictures of me naked while I was in the privacy of our own home sunbathing in our privacy fenced in backyard. Don't think that I didn't do a lot of suing on them that time, even though Criss said it was the best photos in the entire newspaper and magazines because his future wife was sexy as hell with a perfect body. I even had strangers come up to me while I was shopping, or just merely walking to the mailbox, wanting my autograph, not because I was engaged to The Mindfreak, but because they thought I was a model thanks to all those damned nude and bikini pictures the Paparazzi took of me. I was a little flattered, but still pissed off every time I thought about it. 

After being engaged to him for several months, they decided to find a new interest to sneak photos of, which I for one was ecstatic that they didn't sneak around our property anymore to snap wild photos of me or both of us while he was on one of his many weekly vacations so he could spend time with me. Klayton was now officially living with us due to his mental crash on his music, he said he wasn't leaving until he had a new inspiration hit him to where he could go home and make some new and more awesome music and tunes. I did feel bad for him because he was in such a slump he didn't have any good ideas for music in over 7 months and nothing he did helped. 

But he did have his mind set on other things, like landscaping and remodeling one of our spare rooms that was close to our master bedroom, because he was positive that Criss and I were going to have a baby sooner or later, and he had many great ideas for a nursery. Criss at first didn't want his silly ass messing up our house, but because he was inspired by something he let him redecorate the empty bedroom. So for several days neither one of us seen hide nor hair of Klayton, because he holed himself up in that room, just to make sure we didn't sneak a peek before he was finished with it. 

For a couple of months now I have been trying to talk to Criss about wedding plans, but he would always find a way to either hide or run away from me...he was still a little gunshy when it came to that final step in the commitment category. Klayton finally finished the room, and let us see it, right when Criss and I walked into the room, it was like walking into a fantasy world, it was themed not just with Criss's Magic shows, but it also had his theme from his Scandroid albums. Criss thought it was way too much for a babies nursery, but I thought it was extremely amazing, and breathtakingly beautiful and by the way, he did it so precisely it would be the perfect room no matter what gender of baby we would have...if I could ever get Criss to talk to me about our marriage.

I wasn't the only one who was wondering about our marriage plans, because Dimitra and his brothers JD and Costa were at the house a few days later, asking us both that same exact question, and it was rather comical knowing that Criss couldn't run away from that question from all of us. Dimitra was the first one to notice Criss actually stress sweating a little bit over that question, so she took him to his office in the house, to have a mother/son heart to heart talk about his and my possible future...and added rather colorfully that she wanted to have grandbabies from him and me before she was too old to know or enjoy them. So while she was in the back with Criss, I was with JD, Costa, and Klayton talking about music and decorative ideas for our wedding. 

A couple hours later, Dimitra and Criss came out of the office room, Dimitra kissed me goodbye, and told her other boys it was time to leave, so Criss and I could have a nice long conversation. Klayton sat down on the far side of me rubbing his hands together, letting us both know that he just had to hear this. Criss locked the house down and sat down beside me and said we were going to have our wedding in two weeks, and that the entire family was going to help with the coordinating so it wouldn't be a hassle or burden on me alone. Then he turned to Klayton and said that he and Sully were going to be on the music detail, and he let him know real quick that he didn't want the same dull and boring 'Here Comes The Bride' number, that it was totally up to them to make their wedding music blow the roof off the house and make it totally kick ass! I looked over at Criss, then told Klayton to make sure it was romantic as well as a kick-ass performance Klayton snickered as he held up both of his thumbs and said he had it covered.
