Dee ~
-
I do.
-
And you Jeffrey Clayton Goodell
would you take Dasha Yari Benitez?, a priest asked.
-
I do., Clay said as he winked at
me.
-
Well I now pronounce you man and
wife.
-
No need to tell me what to do
now., Clay said before kissing me.
-
Oh my god!, I said as we walked
away from the altar.
-
The others will kill us!, Clay
laughed.
-
Yes Mister Goodell.
-
That�s right Mrs. Goodell., he
said back.
-
Well should we go tell the
others?, I asked him
-
Na we got a honey moon to have.
Well for a night anyway, we�ll go on one later.
-
Tell me more., I squealed as he
picked me up.
*
The Next Day *
-
Where did you guys go last night?,
Bek asked me as we ate a late breakfast.
-
No where in particular., I smiled.
-
That�s why the sun is shining
out of your ass?
-
What happened last night? Tell the
truth., I asked.
-
I caught Karlie and Tilky
together., Bek said quietly.
-
What?, I asked shocked.
-
Oh it was a mistake alright., she
said as she was trying to laughed.
-
How did you find out?
-
I had the wrong key and it was for
Ryan�s room. So I guessed Karlie must have had Tilky�s key.
-
You were right?
-
Yup. Tilky and Karlie were
kissing. I can�t believe she did it., Bek said crying.
-
She didn�t know it was Tilky.
You know that., .� I said hugging her.
-
So what? She still kissed him!,
she said shaking her head.
-
That�s all though. Could have
been worse.
-
Tilky just wants to forget it
happened., she admitted to me.
-
Do you?
-
Yes�
-
I�m not going to say it will be
forgotten over night or even ever but the pain will reside.
-
But how can I trust them?, Bek
asked me.
-
They made a mistake. You said it
yourself. They didn�t know.
-
Still�, Bek said.
-
Still one action a man makes
doesn�t mean you can brand them for the rest of their life. I remember some
one telling me that.
-
Me?
-
No Bertha Kabomba!, I said
sarcastically.
-
Dee this is serious., she laughed.
-
Yes it is. You�re willing to
throw away years of friendship with two of your best friends because you won�t
listen to them. Sheeze, I know I can�t say the same thing in your shoes Bek.
But God those two love you! Don�t you realize that?
-
Dee�
-
No Bek listen to me! They made a
mistake!
-
I don�t have to think about just
me any more. How do I know it won�t happen again?
-
I don�t think it will. I mean
come on they are like brother and sister. I really don�t think they could do
anything., I said laughing.
-
Everyone says that., Bek said.
-
Well it�s true! Come on you
didn�t hear the talk Tilky gave Ryan when Ryan and Karlie started dating., I
laughed.
-
Lecture?, Bek asked interested.
-
Clay told me that Tilky told Ryan
if he broke her heart. He would break his jaw., I laughed.
-
Oh my god! I�ve been stupid
haven�t I?, Bek laughed.
-
Yup!, I said nodding.
-
I better go find Karlie., she said
as she stood up.
-
Yeah, come back and we can go
shopping.
-
Before I go�
-
Yeah?, I asked.
-
Why have you got that on your
finger?, Bek asked me while pointing to the wedding ring.
-
Oh hum� I� Clay� Yeah�
-
I think I might sit back down.
Whats going on Dee?, she said as she sat back down.
-
Hum� We kinda got married., I
said quietly.
-
WHAT!?, Bek screamed.
-
We�re married., I said smiling.
-
Oh my god! That�s great!, Bek
screamed.
-
Yeah., I blushed.
-
Dee I got news too.
-
What?
-
I�m pregnant�
-
No way!
-
Yes! I told Tilky last night., Bek
laughed.
-
Well?, I asked not sure what to
say.
-
He�s excited. But he knows I�m
still not 100% with the whole deal.
-
Baby deal or his slipping up?, I
asked.
-
Him stuffing up.
-
Well you sure told him then! But
you have to talk to him., I laughed.
-
Yeah I will one day.
-
No now! Come on go!, I said
getting up.
While Bek was searching for Tilky
so they can really things arranged with them, I decided to go and searched for
Clay to know if he ever gave the news about us to someone else.
-
Clay have you told him?, I asked
him once I finally caught up with him.
-
No I haven�t told Ryan. He�s
to mad to listen to anything I say. And it obvious that he got something on his
mind.
-
That�s why he didn�t want to
talk to you when you went to see him last night?, I asked.
-
Guess so�
-
He�s going to be shocked. At
least Bek was but she won�t tell anyone.
-
Until we tell them., he said
looking at me.
-
Look, they have other things to
think about other than us going to get hitched.
-
What�s going on?, Clay asked.
-
A whole lot!, I said as started to
explain the problem that was going on about last night.
-
No wonder he was mad! I mean I
would be too.
-
God am I the only one who is on
their side?, I asked.
-
Most likely., he said.
-
Well I believe them. Karlie and
Tilky would not purposely do anything., I said as I stood up.
-
You will have a hard time to prove
that.
-
Well there you go!, I said as I
walked off.
-
Dee don�t!, Clay said running
after me.
-
If they can�t see it themselves
Clay someone will have to!, I said
before I bump in between Tilky and Karlie who was arguing.
-
Talk to me Karlie!, he said.
-
No Tilky!
-
Give me a one good reason why not!
-
Why? Well because one of my best
friends think I cheated on my man with her bloke, who I would never have done a
single thing. Not only that but I now have been kicked out of my own house,
single and pissed off.
-
Ryan broke up with you?
-
Yes Tilky what did you expect? I
would have done the same. I love him with all my heart, but I can�t get him to
forget this. If I have to lose the one I love, I don�t want to lose my best
friends either.
-
Karlie! Wait I am still your
friend?, he called out to her when she walked away.
-
Well I don�t know if I can.,
Karlie said before walking into her room.
-
Crap! Clay? Clay?, I said.
-
Tilky!, Clay said walking over to
him.
-
Shit!, I said to myself.
-
Clay! What�s up?, Tilky said.
-
Shouldn�t I be asking you that?,
Clay asked.
-
Clay stop it!, I said.
-
Dee please!, he said looking at
me.
-
No Clay stop it! You will regret
it. If not for me. It�s for the group., I said pulling his arm.
