I've Got Your Picture, I'm Coming With You Part 10
As always, I don't own anyone, none of this is real, blah blah blah, you know the drill.
What in the hell am I doing?! Getting married in a quickie wedding in Vegas, some voice in the back of my brain reminds me. Matt is going to kill us. He’s called twice since we got here. And I’m sure he’ll keep calling until we get back. I did text him and tell him we were going to be a while, we got stuck in traffic. Little white lie, I’m getting good at those. Although, as the little voice in the back of my head decides to remind me at this point, in fifteen minutes, you won’t have to tell one again. I really wish it’d shut up. This is hard enough to do without it reminding me every five seconds. Don’t get me wrong, I’m incredibly happy to be marrying Jack, happier than I thought I’d be, but sneaking around to do it? That’s what’s hard. Even though I know the second we get back on the bus Jack will spill the beans, I can just imagine how pissed they are going to be that we did this behind their backs, without telling them.
“Hey Jack?”
“Yeah?”
“Before we do this, I have to tell you who that phone call was from.”
“It was Holly, wasn’t it?”
“How’d you know?”
“She’s been calling lately. That’s what caused the fight with Stacey. That this ‘Girl’ kept calling. All hours of the day and night too. She wouldn’t give up.”
“Honey, why didn’t you tell me?”
“Because hanging up on her at two o’clock in the morning is what made me realise that if it’d been you on the other end of the line, I would have taken the call, no matter what, no matter how mad it made Stacey. It’s what made me realise I love you. That I’m in love with you. And that I’d much rather be with you than who I was with.”
“You realise you could’ve just called me and told me right?”
“I do now.”
“Are we really going to do this? Without everyone else?”
“How about this? We do this one for us, and if this all works out fine, we do a big one in a year for everyone else?”
“Sounds perfect.”
“You ready?”
“As I’ll ever be. Hey Jack?”
“Yeah?”
“I’m in love with you too.”
