The Exception

38

That night Jayden and I went out to dinner alone to talk and just start looking toward the future. I wasn't sure if he was going to want to talk about the wedding but it wouldn't help. If we wanted to get a nice place for the wedding then we had to make a move on things. I wanted to do a Winter Wonderland theme and then it hit me that I would want to have it during New Years Eve. Like how amazing would it be to have a wedding as the year turned from old to new. We could get married on December 31st and then have the party on January 1.

Jay, "What are you smiling at?"

Me, "I just had the best idea ever. Why don't we get married on New Years' Eve and then we can have the party on New Years Day, doesn't that sound cool?"

Jay, "Are you serious? It's July now, we would have 5 months to plan a wedding. Are you sure that's going to be enough time"

Me, "Yeah. I can make this happen. It's going to be the best wedding ever. Like you need to get excited about this"

jay, "have you really thought about anything for this wedding? A lot of stuff is needed and you need to get a bridal party and what not, can you get all the things that you need ready?"

Me, "I may have to fly back home earlier than expected and take some of the kids with me to get fitted but I think that we could pull it off if we work hard enough"

Jay, "Babe this was supposed to be our break with the kids before they had back home. I don't think that we should be cutting back on their time"

Me. "So how will we get the wedding stuff done. if they are all going to be all over the place then I would think that it would make sense to get all their outfits done now, so we don't have to worry about it"

Jay, "And when would I have time to hang out with the kids? You do realize that it's going to be just me, you and Zion, that's nothing"

Me, "So when would it be a good time for me to do all of this, because last time I checked you were the one that was telling me that I only had 5 months, do you not think that we should get married then?"

Jay, "I didn't say that. I just said that I don't want to cut this trip any shorter than it has to be. We can get all this stuff done when we get back home. Can we not?"

Me, "Sure. but we would need to get a place now. I would have to start looking if you are going to be back here with the kids"

Jay, "This is a family vacation. I want you to be here for it. Can you not understand that?"

Me, "You don't have to speak to me liek that. I am a human being to. Listen you are the one that asked me if I was happy and I am being honest. Right now you are just annoying me and I can't deal with that if you are going to be attacking me on everythign that I ask"

Jay, "How am I attacking you, I am just being real with you"

Me, "Being real, you are just shutting down everything that I am asking of you. You think that I can just wait around for you to finish up but I have a time and date that I want to do things. Can you agree with that or not?"

Jay, "What's the rush. We can just wait until next year if you are going to act crazy about this whole wedding"

Me, "If you weren't serious about the engagment then why did you propose to me? I don't think this can be taken as a joke"

Jay, "Who said that I wasn't focused and wanted to get engaged to you? I never said that this was a joke to me"

Me, "Well you are acting like this is all a joke and I don't like that. If you aren't going to be cool with me planning it for December then tell me now. I don't want to waste my time for something that may never happen"

Jay, "Nadya what's going on? You are really turning into a person that I don't know"

Me, "No, you need to understand something. I take marraige reall seriously and if you are going to do this with me then I need you to stay on the same page as me. You are a major celebrity and we already have people inspecting our life like their is no tomorrow. I don't want the media or anyone planting things in your head to make it seem like I don't care"

Jay, "I swear to GOD and to everyone here that I am not going to turn into someone crazy. I know that you are going to be my wife no matter what happens. We can take our time with this and make it as amazin and perfect as we can"

Me, "But that's the thing, we can't wait on forever because soon there is going to be another important steping stone in our life and I would like to have some type of order before that happens"

Jay, "Are you being serious with me?"

Me, "100"

Jay, "Is that why you have been acting all crazy on me? but,wait--weren't you drinkin champagne last night?"

Me, "You thought I was, I was actually throwing it over my shoulder when you weren't looking"

Jay, "When did you find out?"

Me, "Before we left Houston. I wasn't sure so I brought another one and did the test when we landed but i was so worried about you that i forgot to check up on it. I found it last night"

Jay, "Ill babe, you had a pregnancy test just sitting around in the hotel room"

Me, "Listen. you need to get all the lovin in taht you need now because we will not have any sex until after the wedding and that leaves you with a short amount of time before the baby comes"

Jay, "Well now that changes everything. We should have this wedding like this weekend or something"

Me, "No, not happening. I want my Winter Wonderland wedding and we are going to have it on New Years Eve"
