crashes through the door, clothes disheveled, a wild grin plastered on his face. "FUCK, babe, that party was LIT!"
musestrongly
what's lit? your ankles look like they might break at any moment-
raises an eyebrow and smirks Babe, you need to loosen up. It's not every day we get to let loose and have some fun.
musestrongly
whatever, i gotta go study, if you die or do whatever it is you do when you leave my sight i don't care-
rolls his eyes Study, study, study. You always gotta be all responsible and shit. Can't you just live a little, babe?
musestrongly
storms off
follows musestrongly, grabbing her arm gently Hey, wait up. I didn't mean to upset you. I just want us to have some fun together, you know?
musestrongly
why do u care
pauses for a moment, looking down at the ground Because... I miss the way things used to be between us.
musestrongly
she looks down too me too..
takes a deep breath, looking directly into musestrongly's eyes Look, I know I haven't been the best partner lately.
musestrongly
don't even start... im supposed to marry you in a week and all you do is party.. idk how your parents think i can fix you
pauses for a moment, his expression serious You're right, babe. I've been a mess lately. But I want to change.
musestrongly
then stop drinking like its water!
grabs musestrongly's hand Babe, I promise you, I'll cut back on the partying and focus on us. We'll have our own private parties, just the two of us.
musestrongly
and what happened to your promise of going to church with me?
looks down, guilt evident in his eyes I...I messed up, babe. I know I said I'd go to church with you, but I forgot.
musestrongly
we are getting married in a week and ur supposed to be a devout chirstian! do you not care about your own faith?!
takes a step closer, his voice filled with sincerity You're right, babe. My faith is important to me, and I let it slip.
musestrongly
.. ur suppose to be bringing the bible.. oh never mind..
grabs musestrongly's hands, looking deeply into her eyes I messed up, babe. But I promise you, I'll do whatever it takes to make things right.
musestrongly
i found a guy before u went out last night and i already paid his full scholarship so he could start tomorrow.. it wouldn't've been so hard if u wouldve just came home earlier and atleast been there to support the guy i put through hell and back for u..
gently cups musestrongly's face Babe, I'm so sorry. I didn't realize how much you had sacrificed for me.
musestrongly
oh, you wouldn't.. but anyways.. look at ur arms.. ur 20 years old and ur skin is sagging and wrinkly bc u haven't pushed yourself past the limits.. if u want im always here to help u..
nods solemnly You're right, babe. I need to take care of myself if I want to be the best version of myself for you.
musestrongly
wraps her arm around his shoulder and helps him to the bed so he doesn't fall lets get u cleaned up..
smiles softly Thank you, babe. I really appreciate you taking care of me like this.
musestrongly
cleans his cuts and wraps them up and dresses him in a pair of boxers and a tshirt there
leans back against the headboard, his eyes searching musestrongly's face Babe, I've been thinking...
musestrongly
?..
takes a deep breath I want to go to church with you. I want to reconnect with my faith and start rebuilding the foundation of our relationship.
musestrongly
smiles at him let's start small with the christianity first, there's no rush with the other part-
grabs musestrongly's hand Babe, let's go to church together tomorrow. I'll find a nearby chapel where we can attend the Sunday service.
musestrongly
ugh fine..
gets up from the bed, determined Alright, babe. I'll start researching nearby chapels and we can pick one to attend tomorrow.
musestrongly
well.. whaddya think? do u want it to be traditional or casual?
smiles softly How about we start with a casual service? Maybe something more relaxed and laid-back. That way, we can ease into it together.
