I woke up with hunter leaning over me. "Good morning." I said smiling. "Good morning." His eyes glanced down and lingered for a minute. My shirt had come up a bit and i didn't need to look to know he could see the bottom part of my boobs sticking out of the shirt. I pulled it down and sat up.

"Woah." He said. I could tell he was now looking at my hair. I patted my head to get an idea of how wild it looked. "Yea i went to bed with it wet. It happens i'll fix it before we meet your friends." I assured him. "No you don't have to." He said. "Are you kidding me i'd never let anybody see me like this." I said. "I understand." He said. "You know you could do with out all the gel. I like your hair." I ran my fingers through it. He let out a small moan. Don't blame him i enjoyed having my hair played with too.

"Maybe just for you." He joked. I smelled bacon so i knew his parents were up. I pulled out my clothes for the day and my straightner and tooth brush. "I'll be back as soon as i tame the beast." I said. He giggled. "Ok." He was still in bed laying on his back up on his elbows. I must be getting sick because seeing him like that i wanted to jump him and i mean it. Do things to him that would make his mother weak. What in the world was going on with me? That boy just needed a shirt. I tapped my tooth brush against my head as i went into the hall way. I quickly ducked into the bathroom before anyone could see the hair.

What was wrong with me? I had dated lots of boys. But none of them made me want to do dirty things to them. I was kind of ashamed and embarassed at even having thoughts like that. I pictured me kissing Hunter again. He strong arms wrapped about my waist holding me to him. What was wrong with me!? I needed help. I couldn't think of Hunter like that. He was not really my husband or even my boyfriend. He was just somebody i got thrown together with. Somebody i was going to break up with later. And probably never see again.

I fixed my hair, put on some make up and threw my clothes on. I looked presentable at least. I came out to find Hunter sitting at the kitchen table. Food in the middle he was waiting on me. "You look nice." He said. "Thanks. So do you." And it was true. He loved a tight v-neck shirt. He did that on purpose he knew how it drived every girl crazy. My self included aparantly.

"Thank you for making breakfast Lynette." I said. "Oh any time you guys. What are ya'lls plans for the day?" She asked. We looked at each other unsure. "Well i was hoping we could do some kind of wedding planning." She said. "Right uh." I looked at Hunter for help. He shrugged. "Ok what did you have in mind?" He asked. "Well i thought, i need some pictures of you guys together i don't have any. We could go shopping pick out a matching outfit and go out to Rosa Gardens and take engagment photos!" She squeeled. "I need to go get ready." She said. We hadn't even said yes or agreed to go. But i couldn't tell her no she just seemed so excited.

"Well i guess it'll be a nice memento when we break up." I whispered. She ran back into the room. "That reminds me. I never even got to see your ring!" She grabbed my hand. "Where is it?" She looked at his hand. "You guys arent wearing rings." She said. Crap she was right how could i have been so stupid not to get rings. What did we say to that. We don't want to conform? No of course not! what girl doesn't want a diamond ring? Besides i didn't know if i could wear a beautiful ring it'd be hard to take it off.

"Oh you know we just got married so quickly we forgot to get rings i wanted to take her and let her pick out something really speacial." He said. "Oh then we'll do that today as well." She ran over and kissed him on the cheek. "You don't know how happy i am." She said. She ran back out of the room. How had this day gone from waking up and just going to meet his friends for lunch to now taking engagment photos. And getting wedding rings. Yeesh!

Once we were done eating and ready to go we headed to town. Lynette said she needed to get some stuff together. Arranging a spot for the photos at Rosa park and getting in touch with the photographer. So we went to the jewelry store. "Hey you guys what can i do for you?" The burly man asked coming over to us. "We need rings." I said. "Oh looking to get married huh?" He asked his eyes shining. "Well we already got married and were just so in love. We didn't have the chance to get rings." I said. "Oh well no problem. let me pull some stuff out for you." I didn't have a whole lot of money and couldn't afford a nice ring. I mean i had what was in savings other then that i wasn't working. And I was living with Hunter for free but I still had bills.

Which is wierd when you think about it because he can afford a nice ring. I'll just say i didn't want something fancy? I looked up and down the rows. "What can i show you?" He asked. I had looked up and down and saw one i really really liked. It was a sqaure cut diamond . I pointed it out. "Oh this one is lovley." He pulled it out. "Here you go stud." He said handing the ring to Hunter to put on me. I held out my left hand and he slipped it on. It fit perfectly i took that as a sign until i saw the price tag. 5,200 dollars. That is more then i ever imaged i'd spend. I mean that's a used car right there!! "Do you like it?" He asked.

I choked. "I love it. This, this is the rings they use on the bachelor!" I said noticing the spot it came from. "Ah, I see you're a fan of Neil Lane! His rings are all inspired by European cities. This one by Paris and the Eiffel tower." The jeweler said. "That explains why I love it." I sighed pulling Hunter aside.

"Look i'm all for playing along but i can't afforded this ring. If i buy it all my savings will be gone and then some." I said. "OK." he walked back over. "We'll take it." He said. "What?" I hissed. "We need bands." Hunter carried on ignoring me. "Oh this one has a matching band." He pulled one out that was just as pretty as the ring. with diamonds all the way around. He let Hunter slip it on my finger. "It's beautiful." I said. He pulled out some men's rings that matched the color i had. "Something simple is all you need. Huh what do you think?" He asked. Hunter picked one up and handed it to me.

The guy beamed clearly happy i was catching on. I slipped it onto his finger. "Wow we look Married." Hunter said holding my hand. "Totally." I said. The guy punched some numbers on the cash register. "Do you need anything else?" He asked. I stared at the ring shaking my head unable to speak. "OK how about warranty?" He asked. I also shook my head. He spit out a total and i almost fainted. Hunter pulled out his wallet handing the guy his card. Once we had paid we left. "Why did you do that? I'm going to pay you back." I said.

"No you aren't! Don't worry about it. I'm putting you through enough." He said. "Would you stop saying that. I don't have a job and I'm living with you for free." I said. "Were married." He said. "Not really i mean...well you know." I said. "It's fine we talked about this i'm going to be ruining your life once we break up. Let me. And as far as staying with me for free, stay It'll give you time to work on your line. I don't want your money, nor do i need it." He said. "That's not the point. I feel bad not contributing." I said. "I know that, but i don't mind at all. Please. Just let me do this." He said.

I groaned. "Fine." "Now we have to go shopping for clothes." He said. "See all the things you were scared of doing for the wedding." I laughed. "Right you are, we'll just have to find a way to make this fun." He said putting his arm around my shoulder. "Yes, so what should we wear?" I asked. "Dress and dress pants? Button up shirt? Nothing to fancy." He said. "OK i'll wear the pants you wear the dress." I said. His eyes shined at me. "I think you mean that. I think you would wear the pants." He joked. "Yes sir." I smiled. We of course meant the relationship. The strip of stores led around the corner so we just walked.

We found a clothing store and walked inside. People here seemed to be less phased by Hunter. I guess that's the joy of living in a small town. A few people stopped for photos and autographs. A few people even told us congratulations.
