COURTNEY SLEPT IN RUFUS BED

When Rufus walks into the room, hearing her coughing, afraid to say anything, he asked, "Did you sent for me?"

"Yes, sit here please."

Feeling his hair wet, Courtney takes a towel and dry it a bit, then rest the towel around his neck, busying herself trimming him, then blow dry it.

Taking his hand in hers, Rufus observe when she closed her eyes, "You don't have to do my nails?" Pulling his hand away.

"Please, I am tired, just allow me to finish."

Observing the many time, she smudged his nails, but she just cleans it and continue, it could be two things causing it, our touching or she is overly tired.

Lastly, she did his make-up. When the girls came, "You are not done with them yet?" Rufus ask, but when they enter the room, unable to believe the transformation she did with them.

Leaving silently then went to his room, noticing a bag on top of his bed. Taking out the suit Mom bought for him. Feeling so exhausted he sit on the bed just to catch his breath.

When she enters the room, her hair was looking beautiful, but she didn't put any make-up on. She looks drain, seeing the way she just sits near the window and rests her head on the window ledge.

Few times Rufus heard a sound but he said nothing, taking his suit quietly he went and change. Understanding just how she was feeling, 'If only he could get an hour rest, he will feel better, but it is almost time.'

Observing from the mirror her dress laid out on the bed, and her shoes, but there was no jewelry, 'My goodness, with everything happening, it never cross my mind to get her any jewelry.

Why didn't I think about it, I better see if Mom has something to lend her,' "Courtney, you can go ahead and change, I will be back in a while to lock up."

Hearing her ask, "Is that the suit you are wearing?"

"Yes, but you hurry and change, it is getting late." Walking quickly, 'This must be the longest conversation we ever had.'

Searching out his Mom, finding her at the front, thank God the bridal party hasn't arrive yet. Touching her to get her attention, "Mom, do you have some jewelry to lend Courtney? She doesn't have any."

"Here are my keys, see what will match her dress a give it to her, and Rufus hurry we only have fifteen minutes before the bridal party reaches."

"Thanks Mom," hurrying to her room Rufus take out her jewel box, checking all the sets she has, seeing a beautiful diamond set that will work perfectly with the baby blue dress with the silver working.

Locking his mom room slipping the keys into his pocket. Thinking, Courtney must be dress already, but the door was slightly closed.

Entering in, Rufus close the door, seeing her sound asleep on his bed, her dress was hanging on a chair and a cream suit was also hanging in another chair.

Seeing under her feet was red and her foot was slightly swollen. Taking the muscles rub he used when he's on his feet the entire day and massage her feet, from the knee down. Hearing her whispering some words, then she was smiling.

Wondering if she had tickles, but he was just so happy she was lying once again on his bed. Undressing, Rufus hang his suit in the rack and replace it once more in the wardrobe. Then lie on the bed. 'I must wait for her to dress then when she leave he has to lock his room.'

Hearing the pounding sound as though it was far away, "Will you stop making noise, it will wake Courtney?'

When the door opens, thinking, 'Oh my God, they will find her in his bed, pulling the covers only to realize that he was alone.

"What do you want?" Rufus demanded, seeing it was Valarie standing at the door. When she enters the room then closes the door, "Get out of my room this instant, what is wrong with you?"

"If the hairstylist could use your room, I don't see why I can't come in as well?"

Standing up, forgetting he had taken off his suit, and was only in his boxers and vest. Reaching to take up his suit from the chair, when she encircles her hands around his waist.

"Are you crazy?" Rufus asks, as he remove her hands from around his waist, feeling such disgust.

"No, Darling, I see something that interests me, as you can see I am all good and ready to provide you with an heir and you seem to be ready right now."

Taking her in his arm once again, speaking in a soft tone, "I am ready but the timing is not right, you see whosoever I plant my seed into, I don't want the soil to be contaminated.

So the first thing we need, is to check a Doctor, but right now I will need you to shift aside for me to complete my dressing. I was so tired I fell asleep half dress now I need to finish up quickly"

"Liar, I saw when you went to meet your Mom."

"Did you expect me to go around my people half-naked, I can't imagine what they would think?"

'He could be right,' seeing him now in a cream suit, when she said, "The hairdresser came out of your room."

"I agree, but then Mom put her bag here knowing all the other rooms were already locked, so where did you expect her to go and changed?"

"You are lying again for me?"

Laughing Rufus said, "You could ask mom, but you could also believe what you want?

I don't have to answer to you or anyone else, and it seems as though your mind has already swayed in a direction, which I already see there is no turning back."

Standing in front of the mirror fixing his tie, thinking, 'Courtney was right, this suit is much, much better.'
