"I think the invitations are real cool" ona said
"I think so too" sash said "And Speaking of, i think my dress is fantastic I might not going to look as good as the bride but I want to think halfway there is comparison enough"

"So Mr L Turner have your groomsmen done their tux fitting as yet?" Anita asked but the way he sat staring Amber down he didn't get to hear Amber lift her head to see him watching her Beth touch him and he turn from Amber to look at his mother, "What was that?" He asked
"Anita was just asking if your groomsmen done their tux fitting"  Beth replied
"I think the only thing left to do now is to see the barber and I've already make out appointment"
Amber wasn't sure who else was his best man she know Roman was his best man but didn't know who else was participating on his behalf, he haven't told and she haven't asked as far as she's concerned they are having  a distance relationship right now, to think when they met they talk much better,
"So you needed an appointment to see the barber?" Chris asked him
"Riley took me to his barber and I get a cool air çut and thing so I kinda just book a spot for Friday evening"
Amber look up at him, she totally forgot that he and Keith became best buddies,
"So he's one of them, one of your groomsmen?"
"Keith, Roman, Gregory and my brothers"
"So who's you best man?" Ona ask
"Simond"
Amber look up it's as if she isn't part of the wedding like she's not the one getting married she knows nothing apart from what is being done on her side,
"And everyone  is on the same page?" Beth asked
"Are we?"  liam lean back to asked Chris and shane"

"Everything is under control" she said nervously make Anita look at her
"Can I be excuses I have to call home" she said
"Of Crouse dear go right a head there's a phone in the den if you want to used it" Beth told her,
Amber got up Liam watch her to the door she stop turn and look at him,
"I can tell you really love her" Beth said five minutes after Amber walk away Liam turn 5o look at her them back to the door, "What else did you expect mom?" He asked

"So how is the family"
"Everyone is OK they can't stop talking about the wedding they seems excited for all the sons will be married"
"I'm happy too for I know how much you want this"

"Since your husband is here I should say goodbye we'll talk again tomorrow"
Liam ģot up from the table to call Gregory to see if he made it home for the fitting is appointed for ten am they had before share the information but he just wanted to be sure he'll be in at ten,
"He's on the phone now, sounds as if he's talking with your man" Monique whispered for Gregory wasn't far from her,

"Yes and try to enjoy your family in laws, say hi to Anita"
"Oh girl I didn't say, but Anita is A walkins" Amber said I  a surprising voice,
"I over heard them talking one night"

"But I'm your best friend"
"I know it's not because you're not why I didn't tell you"
"She asked that I model a few pieces of maternity clothes for her store"
"Oh she did, what did you say?"

"You're going to do so well" Monique said happily
Amber grin and sigh they finally said goodbye Amber got up to go back down they were no longer at the dining table but in the livingroom she been gone so long it seems they have done with the dishes and freshen up and change, Liam was the only one that wasn't there Amber didn't think he could be talking  to Gregory so long she sat for a while   and they have a conversation she then said goodnight and went back to the room,
The others waited for Liam to come before they were all saying goodbye,
They were all gone when he got up to go to his room, Amber was by the window by this she had change into something more free a small nightgown she was looking out on the street as it shown from the window though  it was far away the lights shine as if she could reach out and touch it, the sound of footsteps got her mind turning though she didn't move a muscle, Liam walked in the room knowing that he was there make her shake as if scared to be in the same room as him,
The scent of her gill the entire room he became shakey with needs it's been a long time since he really held her make love to her he long to do so long to be in between her thighs he walk over to where she stand, Amber trimble knowing that he was near he reach out to but the glass of tequila on the side table held her firm by heŕ upper arm kissing her shoulder Amber  shiver as his lips caresses her his palm rub around her breast down her tummy to fondle between her thighs he was close to her as she felt him poking her butt cheeks he jerk a few times as he was pressed up against her his fingers rubbing her nipples as he caresses her neck with his tongue and lips his hand slide down to claim her flesh between her thighs gathering it in his palm Amber held her breath he let go after some time slide around to grip her bottom in one hand reaching for his tequila in the other she felt him back away then his foot steps echoed away Amber turn to see his back going out the room as he close the door behind him, she sigh wishing it was better but what can she do now, she left the window and lay in bed to see if he was coming back,
Liam took a shower in the single bathroom on the downstairs remain in his work pants and his under shirt after another glass of hard liquor he make himself comfortable on the couch  where he fell asleep and stayed the night as it was intentional
Amber woke up in the late our of the night to find that he wasn't in bed next to her she wasn't looking for them to be talking till now for it's almost three o'clock she went down to find him on the couch a sleep she left and went back to the room she lay for a while before she falls a sleep again,
Liam walk out to the patio as early as six in the morning  his glass of tequila still in his hand he lean against it's wall taking in the luscious cool morning air as it wipe over his skin and under his hair tickled his skull he relax to the feel of it,
"Hey" he heard someone,  saying  it in a low voice he turn and saw  Poochie a  neighbor he knew also from childhood days he had hit it off a couple of times with her back then he used to now and then back when he left home and might stop on and stayed for a night but it was nothing like going steady, he haven't since himself and Amber came in a relationship she  smile and wave he smile and wave back she call him over he left the patio and went out to her by her gate,
Amber got up fresh up and went down on getting down no one was to be seen in the kitchen or in the livingroom it seems no one got up and even Liam wasn't on the couch as he was late last night she wondered if it would be OK to take a strole outside to get some of the Canadian air she made her way across the living room to go out on to the patio
Liam stood talking with Poochie she inquires about what he's been upto saying to him What she's been up to  she was finishing up acting school and Start a little studio acting Liam was glad she finally ģot into acting she's been dreaming of such day he remember her acting by herself those years back he thought she wouldn't but nothing ever happened before it's  time, just like him he had always known what he wanted and always went after it but marriage wasn't on the list but in few days time he'll say I do to the woman he loves the most,
"I heard your mom saying to my dad that you're getting married"
he nod,
"Congratulacions now that you're going to it means you'll actually starts a family"
"There's a baby on the way"
Poochie grasp  and cover her mouth, "Congratulacions ìm surprise you're moving fast Liam Turner" Poochie grin as she reach to touch his chest,
Amber got to the patio and saw him with the girl they seems to be having  a great conversation close up and grinning as if both flirts with each other they seems so caught up in what ever and as if lost in each other,
"So now that you're  caught up does this mean no more you and I?" She murmured
Liam grin she sip from his glass, "you still crazy about it aren't you?" He laughed Amber heard his wild laughter almost like few of the times they had love conversation and he's been put in the mood, she knew he's not getting on her and is expecting him to with someone else for knowing him he can't go on without sex, he sip from his glass looking in Poochie's face
"You're welcome to it anytime you know you always were" Poochie said
Liam nod,
Anita couldn't find neither Liam or Amber he knew Liam love his early morning and think that Amber might have gone along with him for a strole but she spot her on the patio and went out she see what got her to that spot, "That's Poochie Liam's and family's neighbor" a voice said from behind Amber on turning she saw Anita  standing there she came next to her with a smile, "she lives here all her life"
Amber smirk and nod,  Anita  didn't need to  say that she and her fiance were actively involved to that look on her face and that grin Amber look back out at them both her hands rest on his chest now she was grinning even more now, Anita what Liam was up to, she knew what took place between him and her and wonder if he was really out there seeking it to happen now her she was leaning closer now as if they would kiss, she look at Amber who kept watch

"Anita Hey, how are you?"
"I'm fine" she answered
"I'll see you later" Liam said Anita saw when she held on to his finger said something that made him nod, she wait for him there,
Amber got back to the room to lay back in bed thinking of what she saw
"You're still into that with Poochie?" Anita asked with a frown

"That look like more than talk to me"
"Anita it doesn't matter what it looks like to you, it was talk for me, you know what?" He point a finger shake it at her, "I told you too much of my business, and when did you came my booking agent telling me how to schedule my life" he hissed
Anita frown at him again, he walk away and she followed him to the kitchen by now they were all seated about to ate breakfast his mother was putting on the table some giant blue berries pancakes,
"Where is Amber?" Beth asked
"She ran off crying because she saw Liam making out with the neighbor" Anita said

He asked
"Oh sure" she said he walk to the door look at her then left,
"I felt I'm doing him wrong, it's like punishing a kid taking away their favorite toy knowing well they love it and it will drive them crazy not being able to have it" Amber said
Monique wonder if it could be that hard to not have the feeling and let the guy still have his way but she didn't say she can't tell exactly how her body feels she herself probably wouldn't force it either,
"Call me later"
"Will do" Amber said sliding from the bed she grab her bag put on a flat sneakers then join sash shane was joining his parents for golf with his children and Liam decided to stay home, both cars leave the drive way at the same time, on the way out Amber noticed the neighbor Poochie as she was told by Anita standing on her porch waving as the cars goes by Amber turn to look if Liam was coming out but he wasn't,
Amber and sash spent a couple of hours in town and the others were gone for a long while too, after half a day cooped up in the house Liam got house bored and went out on the lawn, he was there when Poochie's father Mr Bartlett came to the door to call to him, invites him in for a drink that he accepts he was coming out the house shirtless with a beer in his hand and barefeet on seeing him sash look at Amber who became nervous jealousy rage inside of her a long with anger one that make her tummy stiff out and strain, Liam saw the way she looked at him as he went to help them bring in the few bags they didn't do much food shopping for they all leave tomorrow for a entire week,
"You guys stayed long" he said
"We did" sash said
Amber wondered why he is saying  that as if he wasn't glad he get time to go off with Poochie the neighbor,
