              Monday morning i woke up and i just laid in bed. Hunters arms were wrapped around me. "What are you doing?" He mumbled as i stretched. "Nothing, absolutely nothing." "I like the sound of that." He agreed. "Yes, isn't it a lovely thought. We've both been going non stop." I said. "You are right. Hey Siri, tell Sergio i want breakfast." Hunter mumbled. "I don't see Sergio in your contacts. Who do you want to send it to?" Siri replied back. "No one i guess." He said as he rolled over. "Here you big baby." I called the number for Sergio's and ordered us both a waffle breakfast with bacon and eggs. So glad they deliver. "I'm not a baby, i'm just being lazy." He said grinning up at me.

           "Can i ask you something?" He asked. "I guess so, shoot." I replied. "Did you ever think you'd marry somebody like me?" He asked. I thought about it for a second, "No." I said. "Oh." He frowned. I laughed. "No you i love. It's just i talk really fast i mean i'm on another level." I said. "I know you talk faster than me!" He said. "Right? See i thought i'd marry somebody who was the opposite who could/would be a little slower paced." I said. "Yea but where's the fun in that?" Hunter asked. "True, i never thought i'd marry somebody famous that's for sure." I said.

          "You know what's funny? I always thought i would. I mean i figured i'd marry somebody who gets it." He said. "I know i know, i'm so new." I said rolling my eyes and grinning. "yea but you know what else. This is good. You don't hate it yet. You don't mind going with me." He said. "Not because it's fun, because of you. I love to see you performing, y'know doing what you love best." I said. "Well that's all i ever wanted. You and me make a pretty good team." He said. "Yea, so how did your band take the news of getting there own bus?" I asked. "They were a little surprised as first but they were excited for me." Hunter said.

           "I'm glad i'd hate for them to feel like we kicked them out. But there just wouldn't be room for your studio and my design studio other wise." I said. "Right, and i tried to get them to make it as much like home as i could." He said. "Great, i think it'll be fun." I said. "Course when you have to ride as much as i do you gotta make it fun." He said. There was a knock on the door. "You start the coffee i'll get the door." I said rolling out of bed.

         I slipped into my slippers and put my glasses on. I walked to the door to let Sergio's nephew Luigi in. "Thank you Luigi, it smells great." I said. "Of course, anything for our favorite customers!" Said Luigi. I gave him a fifty dollar tip. "Oh thank you!" He said putting the money into his pocket.  "Have a good day!" he said as he turned to go. "You too." I said closing the door.

           I set the food onto the table and started putting it onto plates as Hunter brought the coffee over. "So what do we pack? I mean we have a month. Everything?" I asked. "No, that's silly. We pack enough for two weeks and we do laundry." He said. "If that's not enough?" I asked. "We go shopping." He said. "You so get me." I said grinning. "Well, it's a gift. Are you ready for this?" He asked. "More than anything. I know we got married on a whim but to me it never felt real. Because it wasn't meant to be. I feel like this will be our real wedding. Our real vows and our real anniversary. Is that weird?" I asked.

     "No, and I agree. We had a wedding technically but it wasn't real. I almost feel like we should send that guy a fruit basket." I burst out laughing. "You don't mean the guy that drugged us?" I asked surprised. "Heck yea, if it wasn't for him we wouldn't be together right now." He said. "I don't buy it. You came to that club because you knew I'd be there. You saw something that night." I said. "Okay that's true, maybe I was looking for trouble." He said. "Oh I'm trouble?" I asked. "Absolutely, but the best kind." He grinned.

      "Okay if the guy hadn't drugged me, and you. What would you have done? How would the night have gone?" I had been wondering this forever. I couldn't of taken it if I knew it meant nothing to him too. But the fact is he had shown up that night. "Well, I would have asked you to dance. We would have talked and laughed. But at the end of the night you would have told me that you were going home. I'd tell you we should exchange numbers and keep in touch even if just as friends and then you would have given me one amazing heart stopping kiss. You'd go your way and I'd go mine. Maybe we'd look back on that night and wonder what if?" He said.

            I nodded. "Yea that sounds plausible. I'm just glad I didn't go home." I agreed. "Me too. So what are the girls up to today? Do they need our help?" He asked. "I don't think so. I've been helping because I felt like I had to. My baby you know? But I guess I have to let go, just a little. And trust that they can do it." I said. "I think so, I mean they've been doing good thus far." He said. "Right? And I've been helping to make sure they get it all done before the wedding. But they'll be home Friday morning and back here Sunday morning. That's not terribly long." I said. "Right? And once the orders originally get filled I would imagine it gets easier. Then they are just filling orders in as stuff runs out." He said.

           "Right and if we were just sending orders to Nashville it would be super easy. But they are filling orders every where. I mean even if it was just one store per state that would be fifty. But in some states it ten stores!" I said. "Hey my baby is talented what can I say?" Hunter said squeezing my arm. "It's just a big job. I'm glad I got someone I could trust to do it. If I had to constantly worry about it I'd never have any fun." "Nobody likes a worry wart." He agreed.

               We finished breakfast and went to start pulling out suitcases. I knew we'd need a variety of clothes. Fall was in full swing.  The high was sixty. But I really enjoyed the cold weather and the rain so I didn't mind at all. I realized there were things I couldn't pack until we left Wednesday morning. So I left the open suitcase by the bed. "How come you never wore this?" Hunter asked grinning as he held up the lingerie. "Oh gosh, well for several reasons. One I don't really see the point. You're just gonna get naked anyways." I said shrugging.

            "Oh there is a point. It's like why wrap a gift? There just gonna tear it open anyways." He said. "Okay I'll give you that. But I don't know that I can pull it off." I said. "Maybe by the worlds standards you aren't a goddess but you're wearing it for me right? And we've established I like the way you're put together." He said. "Fine reason number three." I said snatching it from him. "It's for the honey moon." I said throwing it into the suitcase. "Thank you." He said smiling. "You know I like to give you a hard time just a little." He said pulling me to him. "If I didn't love you I wouldn't let you." I said. Then i started laughing. So hard that he had to let me go. I fell onto the bed.

              "Now you've got me. What's so funny." Hunter asked. I sat up wiping my eyes. "When I realized I liked you. I didn't know how I'd tell you. Taylor I think it was, suggested that I design lingerie for the magazine. Y'know as to what I'd wear for the honey moon and just be trying it out as you came home one day." I said rolling my eyes. "Oddly enough that might have worked." Hunter joked. I rolled my eyes again. "Of course." I fell backwards onto the bed. He leaned over me and then pressed his lips to mine. 

              Dang the boy was still an amazing kisser. I ran my fingers through his hair. "Yep getting a haircut was a great idea." Hunter said kissing me again.

                                               ---------------------------------------

       Later that day I did go help the girls. It was more so that it was my clothing line and I knew I wouldn't be able to help much the next coming months but I was already looking forward to my next line. I had ideas already cropping up. But I only drew the ones I had to. I knew seeing the sights on our honey moon would inspire me more.

     Come Wednesday we had the car that was going to take us to the airport loaded down. I even made sure to take special care of my wedding dress. Hunter hadn't seen it and I liked the idea of keeping it a surprise. This week was going to be a busy one for sure. But it felt like a beautiful beginning. I was more than ready to start my life with Hunter. For real this time. 

                                              ----------------------------------------------

             The airplane landed at the airport and we hopped out. The flight wasn't long at all. Not like the one to London will be. The pilot quickly unloaded all of our things and put them into the back of the waiting SUV. Hunter found the keys and we went to the hotel. We needed to get unpacked and showered. That way we could take a trip to visit his parents. Pick up all the wedding things from the garage. Then on Thursday make a trip to my parents and get the stuff from their shed. Everything would be kept on site where the wedding would be. They have a locked shop. I was glad we'd get everything taken care of.  This wedding couldn't come soon enough.
