*^*Chapter 19*^*

“Ready to go shopping babe?” Nick asked when they woke up on the morning of their day off in New York.

“Uh...sure...yeah.”-Lauren

“You don’t sound too excited.”-Nick

“Oh I am, don’t you see, I can’t wait because its the first time that I’ve EVER gone shopping at SIX-THIRTY in the morning!” Lauren said sarcastically.

“Oh really?”-Nick

“Yeah, really,” Lauren said as Nick started tickling her, “ahhh Nick stop!”

“Nope,” Nick said as Lauren kept giggling, “this is what you get!”

“Nicky pooh, baby, please stop.”-Lauren

“Fine, but then I’ll have to do this instead,” he said as he leaned down and kissed her. The kissing got more passionate and then Nick unbuttoned Lauren’s pajamas and slowly took them off of her, as she slipped off his clothes. A few hours later they decided to get out of bed. Lauren took a shower and began to get ready.

“Any regrets?” Nick asked as he walked up behind her.

“Nope, you?” she said turning around.

“None at all,” he said kissing her on the cheek.

“Good.”-Lauren

“Home sweet home!” Nick yelled as they walked into their condo in Tampa.

“I’m going to check the answering machine, and I’ll be right back,” Lauren said as she walked to the kitchen to listen to the messages.

“Lauren! Hey it’s Kate! I know this is kinda late notice and all, but on May 1st, Adam and I are getting married. I know that’s only 3 weeks away, but I was wondering if you would be a bridesmaid? I asked Lisa too, so you guys could come up together maybe? It would mean a lot to me if you would be in the wedding. Well call me!”

“Nick come here!”-Lauren

“What do ya want?”-Nick

“Well on May 1st, my friend Katelyn, you know the one in Lisa’s wedding, is getting married and she wants me to be a bridesmaid in her wedding. It’s in Ohio, and I’ll have to be there all week so I was wondering if you’d wanna come with me? You could meet my parents too.”-Lauren

“Oh baby, I can’t we’re scheduled for Grad Night that week, but you go and have fun. Ok?”-Nick

“Oh, I’m sorry I forgot. But I’ll just go ahead and call her and tell her I’m coming. I’ll only be gone for a week, then I’ll be back here.”-Lauren

“Ok sweetie,” Nick said giving her a kiss.

3 weeks passed by quickly and Lauren and Lisa were on an airplane to Ohio. Lauren wasn’t feeling good the morning they left, but she wouldn’t let Nick convince her to stay home.
