Turning onto another decent street Faye huffed either mad I made her drive or mad from the previous days of location shopping. We had found a nice wedding venue person to work with. And… Lea has been very useful in showing us what we don’t want. I flinched out of my thoughts when Faye honked at the slow driver who turned out to be a grandma, “Faye…”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAW2vmFdOuf
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUPEE9DIsW
“They were driving me crazy. …I'm sorry.”
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOPLPixKke
“You need to let up.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMyYlojHL4
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEei8rsr3p
She did slow down but didn’t stop scowling at the road or cars ahead of us, “They gave us a mature Cleo. The last place she took us to had a hive infestation where you almost got hurt. And the one before that sure looked nice until I almost fell through the wooden floor because of mold!”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUWbOvAiIP

“Don’t assume Faye. Each place looked beautiful on the outside. What if she hadn’t been given the information about the interior beforehand. A lot of places do that so people can buy them and then find out what they’re actually getting after.”
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlyNyhFetw
“Your giving her the benefit of a doubt.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmaWJb49qm
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2fsixlLaE
“Yes I am. Do you know how many times I've had to suck it up because of what I did wrong even though it wasn’t my fault. She’s too terribly nice to have been doing this on purpose.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDbZrEKlkU
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44ZFAVRYH2
“I suppose… But it's been days of getting disappointed. I’m all for this but I'm getting tired of driving all this way for nothing.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYPQLf6GiU
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFG8VxQqAR
“I know and I'm sorry. Maybe this place will be good this time.”
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6vKkwyYv0
“I hope so.”
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2mGIhjupg
We both exhaled as she pulled into a driveway and saw the girl in front of the seemingly fine building we were to look at today, “Now suck up your pride and put on that sweet expression of tenderness I love and adore.”
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnh5gHdYXcr
Faye groaned but did just that, “You two are gonna absolutely love this location. It has a nice view of the lake. A big open area for the recession. And the after party room is a nice short walk that overviews the city.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2o8tAXvpw
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2OOYd1ca1
“We’ll see.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOlp1krMmi
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvL3xionai
“It does sound wonderful doesn’t it?”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9unudWQQo
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vb8YxbIEy
“Like a dream honey. And it’s within our budget?”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMrNXYkNqy
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliPCIwG0bw
“Actually under it Ms. Hart. “478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVOwD0EaGP
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00kNhrlvw9
“Sounds sketchy.”
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKV2HPCMlQ
“Every single one we've been to sounded sketchy to you.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzuNXtB0Zk
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZrM2IpB1c
She gave me a ‘and look what happened’ look and I laughed it off. Faye then seemed focused on Lea but then squenched her eyes, maybe looking past the foggy window of the door, “There are people in this church.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSNIi7HpCh
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjjineo2EX
“What? No, that'd be impossible and illegal. There's a literal ‘no trespassing’ sign up front and this neighborhood regularly has police cars patro-,” She opened then shut the door quickly and covered her eyes. I hope she didn’t see anything gross, “There are in fact some people in there. I think they’re homeless and we should probably leave.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJAMy0XVEV
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnT7EoBClX
“And I think you already know my answer.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3itG5XM2nV
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjr5wDodgvE
“I’m sorry Ms. Hart and to you also Ms. King. I can still find some other destinations for you.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGHh0Yk3ml
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVXJUCjdDO
“No, I've by now lost interest. Let’s go Cleo.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXxVwlQix3
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2ajqwhtXU
“I’ll drop off a check for your time later on.”
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiL6k8t9xx
“Oh thank you Ms. King. They gave- I'm sorry again, my boss said this was good to show. Maybe I should've come earlier?”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjafk8nxW20
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAymu3wGCNz
“No no don’t blame it on you. Even though that’d be a good tactic your boss should’ve known beforehand. It sounds like they’re just setting you up to fail and-,” I heard the engine of Faye’s car pick up and looked back to glare in which she didn’t meet.478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CO9R4b6RN
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8WIQy08P8
“I gotta go before she does that again. You have to be the one to change your life ok?”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cBrh6ATGC
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28cP38329J
“Thank you.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9omXn9xPiy

“Wake up Faye. Look at this,” I shook her vigorously until she jumped up looking out to the place I parked in front of.
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70Hh5nsx5v
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68QvdBBHdG
“Whoa. Wait where are we?”
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ypKplvDSF
“I took a shortcut and got lost but then followed my gut because why not. But we're close to home, albeit a little far but close.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwaHKmwg9u
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2U9WryS9Y
“There is no way this place is close to the cabin.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5R9yMe6elj
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hbR27JcH5
“Ok well i did go off track when i first saw it and wanted a better look. So get your butt out, we're going in.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8v0rDkE7m
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEaUasq11D
“I’m driving us back.”

“Suit yourself.”

Going around the car Faye waited to interlock our arms. We walked the short path almost like tourists ooing and ahing at the exterior. Once we made it inside I could see the future playing out and smiled like it was already the day of.
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9PHI3obHY
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHC2NRkzEB
“What do you think?”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7rYR8IkLc
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2ng0FEwDk
She was smiling too when I looked at her. Though she looked around more than I did, “Who do we talk to to get this place?”
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5eimxCVRv
Further down the rows I saw feet and tapped her shoulder and pointed in that direction. Within seconds the person got up wiping his hands on his shirt, “That would be me. Sorry I was cleaning under the benches. I didn't mean to startle you.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw22obvsiqa
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GXyU5pgmT
“Not startled but I like your personal touch.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gAaaqHnnr
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEvtiMoAA1
“Yea well the cleaning crew I pay so much doesn’t understand the fraze 'I wanna see the shine reflecting off the benches but off the floor’. Y’know for any children that choose the chapal to be a military mission.”
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDy8s5cN2b
When he neared, Faye lent out her hand first, “Faye and this is my soon to be wife, Cleo.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbtZF8IagD
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDmIGcTBAn
I shook his hand next a bit too eagerly, “Hi nice to meet you.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6cab7Y8Mu
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcTbHnncDb
“My name's Malcolm and it’s nice to meet you both. I can only assume you two lovely ladies are ready to get married. If you give me either of your numbers I can call you when we are open and speak to the accountant. I’m only the official who marries the people if you like me that is.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIA1OFqegh4
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oKtQzgnnH
“I was just about to ask if we’d have to hire our own but it’d be great to have you.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZI1BpVMPU
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMyAPAdsDM
“Do people normally just wander into this place?”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjVuywh7TA
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqylvaqA9HP
“Yes Ms. soon to be wife. Only the best eyes catch our place.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGueiOkKzHh
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdr6xBmuB5
Faye sighed and I bumped my hips with hers thinking of all the times I'll bring this up in our life together, “I think I earned that badge of honor. Had to basically drag this one out and in the end loved it just like me.”
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkpflBUJGX
We spoke with him some more only after he insisted it wouldn't bother him too much until it started getting dark out. “Well since I have no idea where we are and it's getting darker we’re gonna have to get back on the road.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2oDnV5JK5
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWFqw516DV
“And I'll be awaiting that call. This really would be the perfect place.”
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28Zw0Evv1x
“Then I'll make sure to get back to you fast. You two are the first of the month so I wouldn't worry about any slots not being available. And have a good drive back.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRh7NEiELqW
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZ5oYoBL7B
We interlocked our hands this time and I swung her arm back and forth thrilled at the outcome. When we made it to the car she opened the passenger door for me but grabbed me by the waist before I got in, “Excited are we?”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bCtKAdI7C
478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mhyoDbFvI
She had her signature complacent smile on in saying that and I rolled my eyes, “Shut up, I can see you jumping up and down in your head. Now take me home, I am starving.”478Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe90rsKlJMM
