Okay. So this past week has been .. amazing. With all the little stuff that King kept leaving on the pillow in the morning. With the three AM wake-up before he left for work. With the picnic he put together in the backyard. And the Valentine's Day date he set up that included a shopping spree for me to pick out something to wear. .. And then go for an unexpected night of arcading and bowling in! Short dresses weren't meant for bowling alleys. Seriously.

I teased him once about not really being the romance type. But he continues to prove me wrong in his little ways. And I love him all the more for it. He makes me a very happy woman and I can't wait to be his wife.

Today, I went to look at fabric swatches for my wedding dress, which I'm making myself. Huge thing to take on but I want it to be original and completely me. I want it to be something that screams me. I've been doing sketch after sketch and .. I don't know. I finally got one that I really love. I just hope that when it's done and King actually sees me in it .. he won't think it's too busy or all wrong.

Oh! We totally booked the location for June 6th. The Japanese Gardens in Long Beach .. because of the white bridge they have over the koi pond. It's .. well, it reminds me of something that's personal to my heart. And King agreed to it so yay!

Private -- No Access.
I called to talk to my Mom today. There's a conversation that I need to have with my fiance that .. I'm kind of scared to have with him. I don't know how he'll react to it considering ..

At sixteen years old, you don't think about having kids. You don't think about the possibility of someone wanting to have kids with you in the future. At sixteen years old, if you're diagnosed with cancer, all you can think about is .. wow .. I want to get better. But ... I never told anybody. Nobody but my Mom knows. The doctor suggested that we collect and freeze some eggs before I started the chemo and radiation treatments. I don't know how many were actually viable .. if any. I didn't really pay attention at the time.

King told me the other day that I'm the only person he's ever actually wanted to have a family with. And it's heartbreaking to think that the one thing he wants, I can't really give him. But .. most of that is because I'm afraid to try. I don't have ovaries anymore. I can't produce eggs. I don't know if the ones we saved are even any good .. and the idea of getting donor eggs just .. they'd be his kids but, even if I could get pregnant, they wouldn't really be mine. They wouldn't look like me. They wouldn't have my hair or my eyes or my smile.

The one thing .. I never wanted to be a Mom because I didn't think I had the option. I pushed the thought to the back of my brain and buried it. I'm afraid to try. I mean .. it's not like we're going to try right now or next year or even two years from now. But what if they aren't any good? What if when I tell him that I have this secret .. from everyone I know including him .. what if he gets mad at me? What if he doesn't understand that the idea of finding out twice that I don't have that option .. hurts me more than anything ever could?

I called my Mom because I needed the advice. And .. I was gonna talk to him about it today but he's spending time with Kayla and .. he needs to do that. he needs to spend time with his daughter. And his friends.

I don't like Desi. I don't. But I hope she's okay. I don't wish anything bad on anybody.

I really don't know what to do. Maybe I shouldn't even tell him. Maybe I should just forget all about it and just .. I'm not sure I'm strong enough to deal with the possibilities. And Kayla is enough for me. More than enough. I just wish he didn't want it so bad ..
End Private.

She stole your pillow and is laying on it at the foot of the bed at the moment. She was all 'Mommy Blakes' and cuddled on it.

Around the time you normally come home she was standing by th edoor to the garage with her bottle holding it and just waiting. I'm serious she was staring at the door for like five minutes. It was like she KNEW it was almost 5.

how about we go get a movie and some ice cream sundaes because we need some serious junk food for the night?
then we can come home and put kayla to bed after we wear her out with a game of 'run around the couch chasing daddy.'

You can like me though, I know it's hard and will take time but I'm not out to hurt ya.

You know, I get that I could potentially like you if I took the time to get to know you. But put yourself in my shoes. If you were dating a guy and there was this extremely attractive girl lingering in the background, who just happens to know what your guy is like between the sheets, wouldn't you be a little upset, a little leery?

I am sure you are an amazing person. King wouldn't like you if you weren't. I am admittedly territorial and jealous and scared because relationships were never my strong point and this man means the world to me. We're a family.

I will never stop him from being friends with you. Never.

I know, which is why I can fully understand how you feel and the situation that our friendship puts you in because of a past. But that's just what it is. A past. Oh I totally would, which is why I'll always be around and willing to be there for you when you're ready.

You're very lucky to have found something as precious as you did, King's a lucky man as well.

And thanks, I really appreciate that Deni, alot.

Sad part about the past is that it tends to linger and make things very difficult. Maybe not in the physical sense, because I know that King would never cheat on me or anything like that, but mentally .. it fucks with a person. You know?

There are a lot of things about myself that I need to come to terms with before I can be friends with someone who has slept with my fiancee. I have a lot of self-doubt and honestly? You're prettier than I am and that scares the shit out of me. So .. yeah.

I know, I've been in your shoes before once or twice. I was never engaged, so that must make it like, ten hundred times worse than I remember.

You shouldn't doubt yourself, really. That's completely understandable, but me prettier than you? Deni, come on. You have nothing to worry about, and I'll have to say I disagree with you about that. Looks have nothing to do with anything, you shouldn't worry about that one bit sweetie, you're beautiful.
