All Chapters of Your Hug Is My Heaven: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

After the first long week of being back to college the weekend was finally here. Kaidence and Candice asked me to go out with them for some bonding time together. David said it's a good idea and to go. After all, I will be part of their family soon.     So here I am sitting on a bar stool drinking shot after shot of vodka with the girls. I am trying my best to keep up but it's kinda hard when I am not really a drinker, I hardly ever drink, and tonight is my first real time I have been out to a bar and actually really drank more than a couple drinks of alcohol. From the looks of things these two have a high tolerance. What did I get myself into? This whole scene is loud, loud music, people all over the place screaming and yelling enjoying themselves. My ear drums are pounding, better yet it feels like a rock band is playing drums in my ear canal. My vision is slightly blurred, I am afraid to even stand up at all. I am starting to think this was a bad

After we left the hospital and got home I was strictly bed ridden. "I don't understand why I need to be stuck in bed all weekend. '' I said grouchily. "I am not looking forward to this at all. I am fine, so why can't I do what I want?"      "Babe it's the doctor's orders you need your rest. You have alcohol poisoning, you just got out of the hospital. You need your rest to get better. " David said trying to reassure me. I was not having it.     "I am fine, I feel so much better. Can't I at least just get up and enjoy my time watching movies and pigging out on junk food? Maybe go for a walk. Hang out downstairs, I promise to take it easy. I will stay in the house as long as I could do something. " I asked him.      " If you rest the rest of the day later tonight I will get junk food and water and we can watch movies and pig out. " He replied back. "But your staying in bed Lily,

"What a long week this has been. All my classes went great and no one asked me on Tuesday where I had run off to. The amount of homework and assignments were nuts. To top it off mid finals are coming up, so the teacher's have been prepping us for those.  There was new gossip mid week, at least the attention is off of me." I said over the phone to Nicky. " I am not big on gossip, but anyway I guess some young girl went out during the week, got completely wasted and was arrested for public nudity." "That's crazy." Nicky replied.    " I know right. Anyway, it is Saturday afternoon and I am helping David get dinner ready for our guests. Dad's invited a woman friend over and her family." "That's good, I will talk to you later then." "Talk to you later. Love you all. ""Love you too." She replied back, then hung up.     "Lily dear can you go set the table?" Asked David. 

Today to me was not only another day closer to the wedding day, but my bridal shower. We were now only a month away from saying I do, and I can't wait. I wasn't one for material things anyway but I guess that's what women do for those who are getting married. No men, just us women and maybe a few kids. Let the party begin I thought as I was ushered to a table on the far end of the room in between my maid of honor Nicky and my bridesmaid Chris. Great look at all those gifts I have to unwrap. Hopefully it won't take to long. I started unwrapping gifts, a kitchen aid, a coffee pot, wooden spoons, spatulas, mixing bowls, and  Tupperware dishes. "Thank you you guys." I said to my future step sisters and syrup mother as they handed me more gifts. Coffee cups, glasses, a nice printed plate and bowl set with silverware from Nicky and Chris.  Clothes baskets, bedsheets, crock pots, pots and pans, cookie sheets, cake pans, muffin tins, candles and candle holders. From a few other re

Here we wait. I don't know how long we waited by the phone for the results but it felt like forever. I just couldn't get my mind off of it all. David tried talking to me to calm my nerves. He reassured me plenty of times, he offered to go for a walk with me to clear my head. I just couldn't relax and didn't want to leave the house. I was afraid of missing the phone call. He even offered to draw me a hot bubble bath, he was willing to do just about anything. I just couldn't let myself give in. I was still so pissed and I knew it wasn't David I was mad at, I just couldn't get it off my mind. Everything replayed in my head like a broken record. Why can't life Just be easy and kind to me? I should be thinking about David and how he feels about all this. Just as I had finally thought about finally giving up waiting, and try to put it all behind me, the phone rang. Please be the hospital, please be the hospital I thought. I have never been so excited for them to call. Just like David said
