Surviving (Surrender 2) - Page 104

“Declan, this is awful. Our wedding is turning out to be a circus show.” she cries into my chest.

“What do you mean?” I want to hit something –or someone for making her cry.

“My mom and dad said things are chaotic at their house; phones are ringing; neighbors are stopping by; people are emailing, and it’s about our wedding. People are coming out of the woodwork wanting an invitation. Dad has clients all over the country wanting the dates so they can make their travel plans. These are people we weren’t even inviting! Some woman that claims to know my mom from a charity event insisted on giving me a bridal tea shower. We have no idea who she is!” she cries so hard that she shakes against me.

I lift her chin to look at me. Her eyes are puffy and red, and it hurts me that she is so upset.

“That’s not the worst of it. The church called wanting to know about the level of security we were providing and concerned about any negative impact it may have on their congregation with you being a rock star. Then the reception venue, leaked the date to some asshole that acted as our wedding planner. We never had a wedding planner!”

“Shhh, shhh, calm down.”

“I can’t Declan, I wanted this wedding to be perfect. We’ve worked so hard, and I’ve always wanted the whole shebang. Now it’s turned into a freaking nightmare. I don’t want five hundred people there nor do I want security at my church.”

“Then let’s call it off.” Shit, that didn’t come out right. I can tell when more tears fall and the shaking returns.

“You want to call off our wedding?” she wails into my chest.

“No, nothing is stopping me from marrying you.” I’m a bastard, and she is probably going to kill me. I need to be careful here, or I may not get laid for a week. I’ve had this idea since I asked her to marry me again, but I wanted to give her the big wedding she dreamed about.

“You said call it off. That usually means canceling.”

“I should have said let’s change the plans.”

She looks at me curiously and raises her eyebrows.

“Let’s run off with our families and close friends and get married sooner. We can still have a big party in May and invite the insane amount of people, but for our wedding, we could be just us.”

The smile on her face tells me I’m not in trouble.

“Like a destination wedding?”

I nod my head.

“I kinda like the idea but you said sooner, why?”

“Because you already said someone leaked our wedding date. And in order to have a destination wedding we have to have a destination. I’m thinking the best time to travel will be your spring break.”

“SPRING BREAK?!”

“Yes, now we need to figure out where to go.”

“We can’t possibly plan a wedding in seven weeks.”

“We can and we will. Once we pick a place, we’ll rely on their event planners to help us. We can pay people to do this stuff.”

“It’ll cost a fortune. Then the party in May...”

“Raven, I’ve got it covered. We have a decent savings account now. And I opened an account with you on it. The advances MJ gave us, are in there. It’s sizeable, and we are about to tour. Money doesn’t need to be an issue.”

She blinks a few times then jumps around and straddles me. Her hips grind into mine, which make me instantly go hard under her. We are both still in our pajamas, so I have easy access. As I slide my finger inside her panties, she grips my wrist.

“Declan, we need to talk about this some more. Shouldn’t we consult with our parents? This is a big decision.”

“It’s our decision, Sparkle. We’re still giving them a party to celebrate. But now, our day will be about us and not a bunch of people we don’t know. And I think we should cancel the reception venue and use the farm.” I tell her about the call this morning, and I think they’re more likely to watch out for privacy. We’ll have to get a new caterer, but I think that is possible.

“Okay, let’s do it.” She lets my wrist go and wraps her arms around my neck kissing me lightly.

“Oh yeah, I’m ready to ‘do it.’” I say against her lips.
