I do...

Chapter 13

*Nick*
I woke up the next morning to slobber in my face. I looked and saw Nat’s dog Snickers in my face.
“Down girl.” I said she sat down next to me and slowly fell asleep. I looked around at where I was and noticed I was still at her mom’s house. I fell asleep under her window. Then I heard voices from outside and Snickers went back there barking. I looked around at the side of the house and saw Joel there, Snickers started to attack his leg while he tried to beat the dog. If I could I would of saved the poor dog. I guess Snickers hates him.. I don’t blame her.
Long time ago when we started to date, Snickers did the same to me, but then she grew on me and loved me. That’s what we used to talk about all the time, when Snickers would come and chew on my leg. We were studying once when that happen. I miss those times. I hopped the fence and went home. I fell asleep on Nat’s bed within two minutes.
A few hours later I heard voices coming.
“Nicklaus CARTER! Get up!” I moaned and saw my mom standing there. “What mom?” I asked.
“You are coming to the wedding aren’t you?” She asked.
“No I told her that I didn’t think I was going to come, it hurts.” I said.
“I know it hurts, but Nick, she is your best friend outside of Brian, all you have to do is go, she needs you there, just to be someone who can show your love for her. Now get dressed your coming.”
“No, I don’t want to.” I said and put the pillows on my face.
“Alright, but I’m going, I’ll tell her you send your love.” She said. That’s not all I wanna send to her.
“Mom?” I asked before she walked out.
“What sweetie?” She asked looking as if I was going to come.
“Can you give this to Nat, only Nat.” I said handing her a small box.
“Yes, what is it?”
“She’ll know. I’ll tell you later, if Nat doesn’t.”
“Alright, but you know you should go.”
“I know mom. Maybe I will..” I said.
“Bye.” she said and left.
“Bye.” I said softly and watched my mom going to my fiances wedding without me.
A little later, I pulled into the parking lot of the reception and saw my mom and Nat talking, I watched as she handed her the box and Nat started to cry. My mom hugged her and they stayed like that for awhile, when someone called out for Nat and she went away. I went up to my mom.
“How did she take it?” I asked.
“You saw.” my mom said.
“Are you mad at me?”
“No, she told me about this morning. She knew you slept there. She slept next to you for awhile until people started to come.”
“Oh.”
“Why don’t you talk to her.” she said. I looked over and Nat, who at the same time looked at me and turned away.
“I....Can’t.” I said and ran back to my car. I drove home, and cried the whole way there.
After being home for awhile I went into the fridge and took out some beer and after an hour or so the world became dark...
