The reception started off great. It was held at Kinsterna Hotel, in Monemvasia Greece not too far from the ceremony site on the beach. Everyone was mingling and having cocktails as they waited for the wedding party to be introduced.

“Ok everybody line up the Dj is ready now” Niko tells us

Everyone lines up accordingly as the song Lets Get Married by Jagged Edge comes on. The DJ announces everyone starting with the Maid of Honor and Best Man first. Once everybody dances their way out to the head table, Niko stands up to let everyone know that Hendryx and he will share their first dance then dinner will be served followed by the father daughter dance, cutting of the cake and the best man and maid of honor speeches.
The last few hours have been going great, I got to catch up with my parents and my aunt and uncle. Ryder and I told my parents the names we’ve chosen for the twins and they loved them.

“Hey babe, how’re you feeling?” Ryder comes to ask me

He’s been dancing with Hadleigh and Everlee for the last 25 minutes.

“Yeah, just a bit tired and a little sick to my stomach is all.” I tell him

“Do you want to go back to the hotel room then? I can keep an eye on the girls if you want to leave” Ryder tells me

“Really, you won’t mind?” I ask kissing his soft lips

“Not at all love, the girls are having fun. Go ahead and take a warm bath and get some rest.”

“I love you Ryder Loxleigh” I tell him hugging him tightly

“I love you too Bailey”

I kiss Ryder and the girls good bye before saying good bye to my parents, sister, Hendryx and Niko. I call for a cab and head to the front to wait for its arrival. That’s when I hear the voice.

“So pregnant again… you didn’t wait long after our son did you?” I hear Wyatt’s voice

I turn to see him slung over the railing holding a half empty beer bottle in his hand.

“Wyatt i’m not in the mood, leave me alone.” I tell him

“Well i’m in a fantastic mood, come celebrate with me.” He slurs

“No, thanks i’m going back to the resort” I say

“Awe and your little puppy dog isn’t following you?” He sneers

“Shut the hell up Wyatt. quit acting like a jealous little bitch.” I tell him

I walk over to where he is sitting and kneel down so I am eye level with him.

“If you have any kind of self respect, decency or even an ounce of knowledge I’d shut my mouth while you can” I whisper to him

“And what is little miss bad ass going to do? Hit me?”

“Keep those lips flapping and yes I will.” I say darkly

I walk away from him but he just couldn’t keep his drunken mouth shut.

“You know i’m glad that fetus of ours died in the crash, You don’t deserve to be a mother and I honestly wouldn’t want your little rebound boy toy to be raising any son of mine.” Wyatt starts to shout

“I told you to shut the fuck up, you’re a no good piece of shit. Ryder is more of a man than you will ever be. He is a great father to Hadleigh and Everlee and he will continue to be a great father to our boys as well. Just because you’ve had and lost your chance with me isn’t my fault. You made your choices and I made mine. We are not friends, lovers or anything of the such. I want nothing to do with you anymore, You are dead to me and have been for quite some time. Now if you don’t mind i’m leaving so do me a great favor and fuck off” I yell in his face now, my hands balled into fists.

When I get back to my room I go to run a warm bath, I sit back and relax letting the warm water do it’s job of easing my sore muscles. When the water starts to turn cold I get out and change into my silk pajamas. I go sit on the balcony and watch as the boats glide across the lake to the harbor. The sunset is gorgeous tonight, as I’m sitting in the hammock chair I start to doze off before I hear a huge bang on the door. I hang my head when I hear the voice on the other side of the door.

“Bailey...Bailey open up, I need to speak with you. I’m sorry. I’m sorry for everything i’ve ever done. If you don’t know it by now i’m still in love with you” I hear Wyatt’s drunk slurring coming from the hallway.

Notes

I know I know i've made promised I haven't kept and i'm sorry. Things are pretty hectic around here with one of my kids graduating elementary school and my other one getting bullied on the daily. And now my husband has a broken ankle.... Next chapter will seal the deal with Wyatt aka LIAM and then there will be a time jump
