I walked back in the house and went up to my room and slammed the door.

Today we had to go to this place for my mom and dad. See when they got married they had a wedding party before they were actually married. they brought lots of people and the people bought them gifts and boy did they get a lot of them. I had to wear a dress not that its bad or anything its just I hate wearing dresses. My mom and dad knocked at the door. James went to go get it.
MOM: Well hello son in law
James: Hi its nice to see you
Dad: Is my baby girl ready
James: Yeah she should be
I walked down the steps. I ahd a blue long strapless dress on and my hair was pinned up in a bun.
MOM: All you look marvelous
She kissed me on the cheek and took my hand.
Me: Mom why do we have a lemo outside?
Dad: Look we thought it would be nice
James: Indeed it is
We all hoped in the lemo as It drove off.
MOM: So how is everything going in the house
I was about to tell the truth but James butted in.
James: Everything is going well
MOM: Well thats good news
We had pulled up at the place. It was huge. My mom and dad grabbed my hand and walked me up the steps. Millions of people came crowding around us and started saying congradulations. People were laughing and clapping. We had walked in the place. Tables and food were sat up and a floor to dance on.
MOM: Now look you need to socialize you two ok
James: Yes we will
Me: Ok mama
James took my hand and we started to walk up to people then a lady came with her husband.
lady: Well look at you two love birds how are things going

I gave James a look.
LadY: Well I hope your marriage last long becuase there will be times you just want to leave
Me: Yeah I understand

James: Look we would love to stay and talk but there is more poeple
lady: Oh yes I'm sorry
We walked away.

More people walked up as we talked and talk and gifts were handed to us.
Then my mom friend and her husband came to us.
Luren: So how are you guys doing

I gave the lady a crazy look.
James: Yes we have
I looked at him in shock. As if I was just struck by lightening
Luren: Well thats very good I'm sure you will make a beautiful baby
James: Thanks
I was thinking about that all night. Then it was finally time to go. My mom and dad dropped us off at home. We both walked up to the room. I couldn't stop thinking about what he said and that lady.
Me: Umm can I ask you a question?
He stoped what he was doing
James: Sure what is it?
Me: Remeber how that lady asked us if we were going to have kids
