Once I heard the door close, I muffled  the sob that fell from my lips. I hated  that I was so upset. I wanted to be  angry, I wanted to be angry with him  but instead I was crying real tears.Makeup ruined I went into the  bathroom to clean up my face. When I  returned to the bedroom my gown was  hanging on the back of the door. Jake  was nowhere to be scene.I didn’t want to leave the house. I  didn’t want to celebrate anymore. My  mood was completely deflated,I wasn’t  prepared to fake smile all day and  pretend everything was fine.Ŵ𝔀𝘸.𝓃𝓸v𝗘𝚕w⒪𝚛𝚖.⒞ⓞ𝗺But I wouldn’t ruin today for  everyone else.𝓦⒲ⓦ.n𝑜𝑣𝗘𝓛Ŵôℝ𝚖.𝒸⒪mI decided against the crocs and  slipped my feet into my black stilettoheels. I slipped my gown on and headed  downstairs. I found him in the kitchen.”Wow baby you look stunning”. Hespoke.I had to keep telling myself that I  wasn’t going to ruin today. But every  time he spoke,I wanted to throttle him.  We didn’t keep secrets from each other.”Babe, are you okay?”. He asked.”Fine”. I chewed the inside of mycheek.”Should we head over to my mom’s?”.”Sure”. I grabbed my purse and putmy phone and keys inside. The more I  tried to keep my cool the angrier I felt  myself becoming. I wanted to know why  he kept this from me.I fake smiled, I laughed, I stood for  pictures but if there was anyone that  could see right through me and  confront me about it, it was Rylee. But  still I said nothing and continued to  smile away my feelings. Alanna  avoided me like the plague, but I didn’t  blame her.

“Bear”. Carter leaned in placing a kisson my cheek. “You excited?”.𝕨Ŵ𝚠.𝓝ôvⓔ𝕝w𝚘𝓡⒨.𝔠𝓞𝑚”Ecstatic”. I had never wanted a glassof wine as much as I did right now. Or a  shot just something to take the edge off.”You, okay?”.”Yeah, sorry”. I sighed.I wanted to leave and get this over  and done with. All this waiting around  was making my feet hurt. I should have  stuck with wearing my crocs.”You sure?”.I shrugged.”Do you want to talk about it?”.I shook my head and tried my  hardest to keep the smile on my face. I  could already feel the tears in my eyes.  Damn pregnancy hormones.ⓦ𝓌𝘸.𝑛𝘰𝘃è𝚕⒲𝕠𝗥m.cô𝘮”Wanna get out of here?”. He asked.I nodded before slipping my hand  into his.I would suffer the wrath of Jake later  but right now I needed to be away from  it all.
