Scarlett ...Can't Be Tamed

28- Good ole Marvin

Coco had been missing Scarlett, she hadn't heard from her since before they had left for Mo'orea and was curious as to how she was doing. Without even calling, she just stopped by.

Scarlett opened the door and covered her mouth "Oh my God, Coco!" She said loudly giving her a warm hug, she then let her in "I'm so sorry, I've been so busy since I had gotten back from paradise, that I've been forgetting to call you."

"Girl, I've been worried about you. How have you been?"

With a grin on her face, she took her hand and walked her over to the couch, sitting down she held out her hand "Evan proposed."

Coco began to clap and grabbed her hand to look at the ring "Wow! It's beautiful!... I had a feeling he was going to, I called it a while back, remember?"

She laughed, looking at her hand "I know, I guess I never expected it this soon."

"So how was the trip?"

"Beautiful, I didn't want to come back.... how did things go on that yacht with Bambi?"

"Better than expected, she did wonderful. They were disappointed in not seeing you, but they were happy with the outcome."

"How's Malachi?"

"Good, he finally admitted his feelings for you to me, but he's glad that you found happiness. He was worried about you since what happened with Evan in the past, but understands now what happened. He's cool."

"Yea, he mentioned it to Evan as well."

"Being that you're here, I have a question for you..."

Coco sat up straight and smiled, she began getting excited on the inside, having a feeling what she was going to ask "Yes, I will." She blurted out with excitement.

Scarlett laughed "You don't know what I was going to ask you."

"No, but I have a feeling... and my answer is yes, I'll be your maid of honor." She grinned.

"It was that obvious?" She giggled.

Scarlett filled her in on grandpa and what he did for her, explaining that he was going to be there later to visit and stay for the weekend. Coco then helped her finish cleaning the house and making sure the room for him would be perfect. Once everything was finished they both went out shopping. She bought some new maternity wear and then they went window shopping for dresses, trying to get ideas.

Scarlett also made some purchases of cribs and decided to have them delivered and set up for her so she didn't have to worry about doing it herself.

"Wouldn't Evan be upset that he's not putting them together?" Coco asked as they walked out of the store.

"I doubt it, he can always double check their work when they are done. With him working all the time, I just figure it would be easier, that way when he comes home he can just relax."

"That's true, plus he has a room to help you put together, have you decided on a theme yet?"

"No, once I find out what we're having then I will... come on, I'm starving let's go get some lunch."

Later in the evening, Evan finally came home with Marvin and showed him around their new home and showed him where he will be sleeping the next few days. "What's downstairs?" Marvin asked curiously, pointing with his cane to the stairway.

"Oh." Evan said running his hands through his hair, nervously. "That's Scarlett's area."

"I'd like to see it." He said smiling, and began heading down the steps. Evan followed behind, wondering what he was going to say.
