Irresistible

Chapter 30

Tori's POV

What did Patrick want to talk about? Was it bad? Was he angry at me?

"Char," he called to me across the house. "Pete's about to leave."

I lay Willow down to sleep and went to hug Pete goodbye. "See you Friday at the rehearsal." he said.

"Okay," i said.

In 6 days Patrick and I were getting married. After a forever long engagement, it was finally happening.

Pete shut the door behind him and Patrick and I were left alone. I turned to face him, bracing for the worst. "Are you mad at me?" I blurted.

Patrick looked confused. "What? No!" he exclaimed. "Why would I be mad?"

"I don't know, you said you wanted to talk to me." I said, looking down.

"Yeah, about sex." He said.

That caught my attention. "What?!" I cried.

Patrick was blushing now. "We haven't slept together since...since Will." he said.

"Oh my god." I said, realizing he was right. It had been almost a fucking year?! I was a horrible person.

"Don't take this the wrong way, baby. I love you, and I'm not upset with you. I just wanted to see if we could have a conversation about..when...we could do it....again." he said. He was blushing furiously.

"Oh, um," I trailed off. How do you respond to that?

"You don't have to, Tori. I know this is hard for you." He said.

"Can we plan on the honeymoon?" I asked.

"What?"

"It's been a long time. We're getting married on Saturday, and going on a honeymoon. It'll make it more special, and give me enough time to prepare myself." I said. I knew I was blushing too.

"Okay, that sounds like a good plan." He said.

"Is that okay?" I asked. He didn't look happy.

"Of course it's okay." He said.

"we can do it now." I blurted.

Patrick chuckled. "It's okay, baby." He said. "You had a good idea."

"But you don't seem happy." I said.

"Tori Eaton," he said, cupping my face in his hands. "When are you gonna learn to stop worrying about everyone else?"

I shrugged. "I don't know." I said.

"Well, why don't we get ready for bed?" He said. "Saturday will be here before you know it."

I smiled. "Okay, let's go to bed." I said.

Patrick looked at me and gave me small grin. "To sleep, Tori." He said.

I laughed as we walked up the stairs.

*****
Friday night came quickly. I was standing in the mirror, looking at myself in my fancy red dress. Patrick walked in, buttoning the last buttons on his shirt. 

God damn. Patrick Martin Stump was the sexiest man in the world. He was so gorgeous. His rusty hair was freshly washed and swept to the side, and he wore an all black suit. Oh my god, I got to marry this guy tomorrow. I was so lucky. 

"You look beautiful, Tori." he said. 

"Funny, I was thinking the same thing about you." I said. 

He smiled his angel smile, and my heart melted. "You think I'm beautiful?" he said. 

"I've always thought you were beautiful." I said. 

"Even when I had side burns?" he asked. 

I rolled my eyes. Walking over to him, I put my hands on his cheeks. "Especially when you had sideburns." I said, and kissed him. 

"Ew mommy!" Declan cried. "You only kiss at the wedding!" 

He stood in the doorway, holding a tiny tie in his hand, his little suit on, and his small backpack on his back. "Daddy, can you help me tie this?" he asked. 

"Of course, buddy." Patrick said. 

He knelt down in front of his son, doing up the tie for him. Then he sent Declan down to put on his shoes. He turned back to me. "Now, while he's down there, let me just..." and he kissed me hard on the mouth. 

"Will you marry me?" he asked. 

"I'm actually marrying a really sexy lead singer tomorrow night, maybe next week?" I joked. 

"Actually, no, I have a hot date tomorrow night. And every night after that." He said, kissing me again. "It's time to go." 

I grabbed my heels and stepped into them, turning just in time to see Patrick put on his super fitted jacket. I was hit by his sexiness all over again. "Stop staring." he said. "At least, at me. Your reflection deserves the ogling." 

He grabbed his fedora and popped it onto his head. "Let's get going, baby." he said. 

"I'll go grab Willow."
