Chapter 66
Just like every morning . Blake went for a run and made me breakfast after he got hack . He said since I made dinner last night , breakfast was hid responsibility . I was confused by his statement since he made me breakfast every morning anyway . We talked a lot about wedding plans during and efter dinner . Sue had mentioned she knew an amazing wedding planner and we could get his help once we were ready . But I thought Blake and I could discuss things like how many people we wanted to invite , where the venue was going to be , what season it was going to be and most of all , who we wanted to invite .
Blake insisted we invite my mother and I insisted we didn’t . She was going to show up drunk or high , in some kind of very inappropriate clothing . Did Blake really want that around family and friends ?
When I finally went to bed , the realisation hit me hard . I was engaged . I was planning a wedding . I was going to be a wife . I was going to be a daughter in law . Was I going to be a good wife ?! Fuxk , what was I doing ? I tossed and turned in bed for hours . I couldn’t sleep from all the thinking I was doing . However , that wasn’t the only thing keeping me awake .
After Blake’s proposal , we had spent the 2 nights in the same room . His parents had been so caught up with making me meet and greet everyone that I usually fell asleep on the car ride home . Blake would carry me up to his room and we both slept in the same bed . I woke up every morning wrapped in Blake’s arms after having the most restful sleep . I pretended to get angry at him in the morning , but the truth was that I secretly loved it . I loved his cuddles and his warmth . I was really starting to get cozy with the thought of spending my life with him .
Although tonight , my bed felt empty . I felt cold and alone . My mind and heart both kept begging me to go up the stairs and climb into Blake’s bed . I shoved those thoughts to the back of my mind and reminded myself that we still had so much to learn about each other . It must have been around 3 or 4 am when I finally closed my eyes .
I felt drowsy and exhausted when Blake woke me up for breakfast . My head was pounding and my chest felt a little tight . After breakfast , Blake left to pick up his suit for the Gala . When he finally came back , he had a bouquet in his hands .
“ You know what I realised ? I don’t even know what your favourite flowers are . So , for now , these beauties will do . ” He said handing me the bouquet .
“ Oh Blake , these are beautiful . Thank you . What’s the occasion ? ”
“ No occasion . I don’t need a reason to buy you flowers babe . Now , do tell , what’re your favourites ? ” He pressed a quick kiss on my forehead and grabbed a vase for me to put the bouquet in .
“ Cherry blossoms and yellow roses . Sometimes orchids too ” I started arranging the flowers in the vase .
“ How fitting ! Roses for Rosy ” a big grin appeared on his face and I stuck out my tongue at him .
“ When your ready , can you please take me to the office ? I would have taken the bus but I don’t want my dress getting ruined ” I placed the vase on the counter and admired them . He was so thoughtful .

“ Right , well I’m ready to go when you are . What colours your dress ? ” He asked .
“ Why ? ”
“ Just curious ” he shrugged his shoulders .
“ Well , you know how you did your little stunt last night and walked around half – naked . This is payback . You can see what I’m wearing at the Gala this evening ” I gave him a sweet smile and he laughed.
“ Fine . Anything I do after that is on you . ” He winked at me and gave me a cheeky smile .
“ Whatever . Lemme go grab my things , and we can go . Can you please let me into your office ? ” I walked around the counter and towards my room .
“ As long as you promise not to leave it smelling like hairspray ” he laughed and grabbed his keys . ”
