What Happens When the Lights Go Out

40.What Happens When The Lights Go Out

40

I was cleaning everything up, and moving all the presents to my room when the boys got home.

We all went and greeted them. "How'd it go?" I asked Ashton quietly.

"Really well actually. Your dad is cool once he opens up a little."

"No way!"

"Yeah. I was shocked too."

"Hey dad!" I said giving him a hug.

"Hey baby." He was smiling. I was utterly shocked.

"Hello Jerry." Anne said.

"Anna." He said using her 'full' name. She sometimes gets called Anna, sometimes Anne.

"How have you been?"

"Um...fine. I suppose."

"Yes, well me too."

"Mommy!" Ally said coming in the room.

"Yeah sweetie?"

"We spilled some soda."

"Oh okay."

"I'll clean it!" Theresa yelled, probably not wanting to stop the conversation.

I could just see my dad staring at Ally. "She looks so much like Brooke."

"I know. They both take mostly after their mom." Anne said smiling.

"Hey dad, she has my personality too." I smirked.

"Oh god!"

We all laughed.

"Well, Ashton can you help me move the last of the gifts?"

"Alright."

We carried the last of the boxes up to my room.

I went and sat on my bed as Ashton looked through some of the gifts.

"Wow, they really went all out. There's hella stuff here."

"To decorate our new apartment." I said smiling.

He paused for a second, and then smirked. "So... this is to furnish our new apartment?"

He held up the lingerie that his mom and mine got me. It was black, red, and lacey. It was a bra and it was see through over the stomach with some matching underwear. He was smiling ear to ear as I was blushing more than I ever have.

"My mother and yours thought it would be funny." I said grabbing it away from him.

"I'll say!" He was laughing. "I can't believe they did that! But hell, I don't mind."

I blushed more. "Shut up!"

"Well I mean they did a good job picking. It is for me only anyways." He winked.

"Stop making me blush!"

"It's just too much fun!" He grabbed me by the waist, pulled me onto him, and he laid down on my bed.

"You're a jerk." I said smiling and kissed him.

"Yeah, but I'm a cute jerk."

"I can't argue with that."

He kissed me again running his hands up and down my sides.

"Brooke! Ashton!" Theresa yelled.

"Damnit! Why?! We always get interrupted! My god!" Ashton said, angrily.

I just chuckled. "You know, we're getting married. We'll have plenty of time."

"Yeah, and maybe a little bit more." He said kissing my neck.

It tickled. I pushed up from him and laughed as I walked out. "Yes Theresa?"

"We're leaving and wanted to say bye!"

I walked downstairs and gave Theresa a hug before she left. "Ashton! You have to come home! You're getting married too soon to get her pregnant already!"

I blushed. "Theresa!"

"Sorry. I couldn't help it." She pinched my cheek.

Ashton came down stairs and he was laughing. "Mom, you are too much sometimes."

He kissed me on the cheek and they left.

The next day we were making sure everything was set and was going to run smoothly. Ashton and I barely got any time together. I think Theresa and Anne did that on purpose.

I packed too for my honeymoon. I thought about it and decided just to pack the stupid lingerie that Anne and Theresa got me. I can't guarantee I'll wear it, but might as well.

I obviously packed bathing suits and a bunch of shorts, but someone told me that it gets cold and windy at night so I packed cold weather clothes too. Otherwise my day wasn't too eventful.

Finally I woke up in the morning like any other. I went downstairs to get some breakfast and my normal morning routine.

It took me about twenty minutes before I finally realized, I was getting married.

Right when I did I flipped out of my chair. Monica came in and saw me on the ground and just gave me a weird look and went to get some cereal.

"You're a strange one. You better hurry though. Theresa is going to be here any minute. The girls are getting ready at her house and the men are getting ready here so she's going to pick you and the dress up before Ashton can come and see it by accident."

"Oh geez! Monica! I'm getting married today!"

She smiled at me. "Yeah, you grew up so fast." She said pinching my cheek.

I heard a knock at the door. Damn. Monica wasn't lying. Theresa is probably over excited and about to bounce out of her shoes.

I went and answered the door, Theresa's smile practically blinded me. "Brooke! Get your dress! Let's go!"

I went and got my dress, still in my pajamas and went back downstairs.

"Let's go future mommy in law."

She smiled and rushed me into the car. I was sped to her house where there were already girls getting ready. "The bride is here!" Theresa exclaimed.

All the girls grabbed me and sat me down. They started playing with my hair. Brushing it, putting some goop in, and rolling curlers into it, one lock at a time.

They moved to my face and started putting make up on me. I hate this whole being poked and prodded by so many people, but I sat silently and waited for them to finish.

Finally they grabbed my dress and put me in it. They pulled the curlers out and turned me to face the mirror. Everyone gasped. I looked amazing. My now very long brunette hair hung in a halo around my shoulders and my make up accentuated every good part of my face and I looked darn near perfect.

"Ashton is a lucky man." Jen said. "here let's put on your guarder."

She put it on and I was finished. There were not butterflies in my stomach, it was more like elephants with wings!

**Sorry, i'm really tired. I'll update soon i just had to get this boring filler chapter in. Thanks. Leave you comment and go eat cake. Peace! Also i did send a message out, but i'll tell you all now. I'm thinking about writing something more deep and emotional and less funny. What do you think?
