Stay With Me

(26) The Engagement Party

Important:

Guys I'm not going to lie we're in the final stretch to this story but I've lost ALL inspiration at the moment. It tooks me months to do this and the results suck. So yeah, the next update wont be coming soon but I do know what I want for the chapter after so that one shouldn't take as long.

While you wait though I've officially started updating Winter Kiss, chapter 3 will be up tomorrow, and don't worry, I WILL be updating every 2 weeks because I've already written to chapter 11 and have plans for the next few.(I honestly don't know how I managed this I've only ever managed to write to chapter 4 before getting stuck in the past)

If you didn't see my post before, Winter Kiss is again a romance but with a dark twist. It's more detailed and emotional and probably will not be PG so beware haha. Please go check it out, I'm hoping it'll do just as well as this story has :)

The Engagement Party:

November 17th 2015

Rachel sighed in content as she bit into one of the brownies Carly had just finished making 5 minutes before.

"Man I needed that after the day we've had." She said to Kevin who scooped up 3 brownies.

"Guys, what the hell! Those are for selling not eating. Weren't the cookies enough?" Carly asked irritated, but definitely not surprised, when she spotted them.

Rachel crammed the brownie into her mouth and gave her an innocent look. "I dont know what you're talking about." She tried to tell her only for it to come out extremely muffled.

Clearly unimpressed Carly took off her apron to swat Rachel with it before reaching in for a brownie of her own. "But Carly those are for selling not eating." Rachel mimicked sarcastically.

Carly narrowed her eyes at her. "I could fire you for sassing me you know." Kevin snorted. "You too." She threatened before rolling her eyes at the pair. "Anyway Rach, I was wondering if you're busy with your hunk of a fiancé tonight?" She asked waggling her eyebrows at her.

Rachel chuckled. "I wish but no. I think Mark pestered him into some guys night or something." She told her. "Why?"

"I spent some time baking some cake samples last night since you insist on me making you wedding cake." She explained with an excited grin. "I thought you could come over and taste them."

"Firstly." Rachel started, pointing at her best friend. "You are the one that insisted on making my cake, I was just extremely happy to let you." She reminded her. "Secondly that sounds great, I'll definitely come over."

Kevin frowned at them. "This sucks. Everyone that works in this place is engaged. It's all you girls talk about." He complained as he finished off his last brownie. He went to reach for another, pouting at Carly when she slapped his hand away.

"Selling not eating." She reminded him in a stern voice. Kevin huffed in response before making his way to the front of the shop, probably to sneak some of the cakes while they weren't looking. Carly shook her head at his behavior. "That boy is a damn pig."

Rachel nodded in agreement before grabbing another brownie. "Me too."

I thought you said you'd be over at 7? I ordered pizza already if you don't hurry it'll get cold xx

Rachel winced as she read the text from Carly. After eating those brownies she'd had a bad stomach and decided to lie down only to accidentally fall asleep. Now she was rushing around the house as she tried to pull on her boots so she could finally leave.
