beat faster and I dropped my bouquet to clench my chest. Why was Trevor standing at the altar as if we were going to be married?
Gary pushed me towards the altar and insisted this was how it was supposed to be. Tears began streaming down my face as I tried to decipher what was going on. I tried to turn away and run, but no one would let me. Where was Luke?
I jumped up in a panic and Luke wasn’t on the couch any where to be found. I clenched my chest, just as I had done in the dream I just had. Where was he? Did he decide he couldn’t handle Trevor being at the wedding? Why didn’t he wake me up to talk about it? Wait that couldn’t be it, why would he leave me here in his apartment? I sat up noticing I was soaking wet from sweating. Great. I got up and went to shower again.
Once I was done, I felt much better but I still didn’t know where Luke was. I dug my phone out of my purse and turned it on waiting to be able to try to call him. I grabbed a bottle of water out of the refrigerator and noticed a note on the counter.
It read, “Macy, I ran to do a tattoo. You looked so peaceful and beautiful sleeping, I didn’t want to wake you. Be back soon. I love you.”
All the panic inside me vanished. I don’t know why I even thought he would just up and leave, especially since this is his house. I downed half the bottle of water and then sat on the recliner. Nothing was on TV, that’s about right. I turned it off and sat there trying to figure out what my dream meant. Part of me really wanted to back out of the wedding more than ever now. Trevor shouldn’t have been in that wedding. Gary was wrong. That is not how things are supposed to be. Gary of all people knew how torn I was after everything had happened. That’s another sign that it was only just a dream.
I thought about calling Halley but I decided this needed to be kept to myself. She may think I’ve officially gone off the deep end and lost my mind if I told her about the dream. My thoughts were interrupted when the doorknob turned and Luke came walking in with bags of Chinese food. Yum! I smiled and got up to go meet him.
“You got my note babe?”
“Yeah, thanks. I woke up in kind of a panic though. I had a crazy dream.”
He looked at me with concern in his eyes. “I’m sorry I wasn’t here. Do you want to talk about it?”
“I don’t really remember it.” I lied. I couldn’t exactly say, well I had a dream we were supposed to be getting married but then my ex fiancée was standing at the altar instead of you. “Thanks for picking up dinner, it smells amazing.”
“I got two of just about everything that looked good. Plus, I know what you like so I made sure to get extras of those.”
I kissed him then began digging through the cartons. I could live off of lo mein and general chicken. I wasn’t too keen on trying some of that other stuff. I just liked to stick to the basics. Luke tried to be all suave and eat with the chopsticks. He was failing miserably. I don’t know how I managed to eat and not choke because I was laughing so hard.
I put one of the noodles in my mouth and motioned him over with my finger. He bit into the other side and I tried to make us look like the lady and the tramp. It almost worked. Almost.
I took a sip of water and finished my dinner. He eventually grabbed an actual fork and didn’t look so silly anymore.
I watched him as he ate. He was beginning to get a little stubble on his face, I got up and walked behind him and began slowly rubbing my hand against it. It was incredibly sexy. I kissed his shoulder and playfully nibbled on his ear. He began lightly chuckling and I ended up in his lap straddling him leaning into his chest.
The dream had to leave my thoughts and this was the only way I knew to help me. I stopped kissing him and look ed into his eyes. “You make me so happy you know that?”
“Really now?” He grinned.
“Yes, thank you for making my dreams come true.”
