Racing for what he wants chapter 5
Chapter 5
When Emily and Elizabeth returned a few hours later, Jason was still sitting at the kitchen table. It looked like he had not moved. The girls walked in laughing.
“I see that you guys had a good time.” Jason said to both of them.
“Yeah, we had a great time. I’m going up to put my things away.” Emily said, and left the room.
“So what did you get?” Jason asked her.
“I got a dress, but you can’t see it.” Elizabeth teased.
“Please tell me you got more than that?” Jason said.
“Nope, you only told me to get a dress, and that’s all I got.” Elizabeth said.
“Elizabeth what are you going to wear besides that dress?” Jason asked.
“I’ll get something later, but this is all I could afford.” Elizabeth said.
“Didn’t you use my credit card?” He asked.
“No I thought that this one should be on me. Stop it, it’s not a big deal. I’m going up to my room now.” Elizabeth said.
“Go get dressed, our ceremony is in 1 hour.” Jason said.
“No, I’m not going through with this.” Said Elizabeth as she stormed out of the room.
An hour later, Jason went up to their room, only to find that the door was locked, and she wasn’t answering it. “Elizabeth are you ready?” Jason asked.
“No, I’m going home. I think I will handle my parents alone.” Elizabeth said. She was sitting behind the closed door, so that he could not get in.
“Please let me in.” Jason said.
“No.” She said between tears.
“If your not going to let me in at least get away from the door so I can kick it in.” Jason begged.
“No. Leave me alone.” Elizabeth said. Jason had given up he had one more idea, and that was in the garage.
When he returned Elizabeth was still sitting behind the closed door. He turned on the chain saw, and Johnny and Emily came running up to see what was causing all the noise. Elizabeth still refused to move.
“Ok, if you won’t let me in, then I’ll just have to cut the door in half” Jason said as he was sawing down the door. Elizabeth moved so that she would not get injured from the chainsaw.
Jason sawed the upper part of the door, and then reached his arm in and unlocked the door. Emily and Johnny were completely shocked. Jason turned off the saw. “What do you think of my redecorating?” He asked her.
“Jason! Why would you tear down the door.” Elizabeth asked, realizing that they had 2 pairs of eyes on them.
“So I could talk to you. Why are you giving me such a hard time about getting married?” Jason asked.
Glancing at Em, Elizabeth responded “So we could get married the traditional way. You know, a best man, a maid of honor, something blue, something old, something new, and something borrowed, and staying away from each other before the wedding day. You know the traditional stuff. I think that we should go into the bathroom to talk about this.”
“Is that what you want? We can wait for you to call your parents and tell them what is going on, do you want to do that?” Jason asked.
“I think we should talk about this in the bathroom.” Elizabeth said.
“Nonsense, I’ll be your maid of honor, and Johnny can be Jason’s best man. Then I will find something white, blue, borrowed, new, and old. Unless you want to wait for your family to get here Elizabeth,” Emily said.
Elizabeth hated to disappoint Emily, because she was such a great friend and she had no idea that their marriage was a sham, and that Jason was only doing this out of the goodness of his heart. “No Em that will do, you could be my maid of honor?” Elizabeth asked.
“I’d love to. Well we have to get dressed, Jason leave, we have to put our face on.” Emily said. Johnny and Jason exited the bedroom.
“Will you find someone who can replace that door tomorrow, while we are out shopping.” Jason asked his body guard.
Emily hurried to do Elizabeth’s make up, and hair. Elizabeth exited the bathroom with the white silk day gown on.
“Oh my, no wonder Jason loves you, you look amazing.” Emily said to her. Elizabeth ignored Emily's comment and remained quiet.
“Your dress is something white and new. I want to give you this necklace that’s old. My great grandmother gave this to me when I entered the family, and now that you are entering the family it is yours.” Emily said.
“No, Em I can’t take this. It means too much to you. It won’t be right to take it.” Elizabeth said.
“Listen you are now my sister, so if I want to borrow it back on my wedding day, I’m sure that you will let me. Here’s something borrowed, it’s a pair of diamond earrings. And your something blue is this handkerchief.” Emily said.
“Thank you for everything that you've done for me. Now go and get dressed,” Elizabeth said.
While Emily was getting dressed, Elizabeth made a quick phone call to her parents. “Hi Mom and Dad. No I’m fine, I just want to know if you could come up to meet my husband this weekend. No mom I’m not in trouble, no Dad stop. I can’t deal with this right now. I have to go.” Elizabeth said as she hung up the phone, tears were on the verge of spilling over.
“Elizabeth are you ready to go?” Jason came upstairs carrying a beautiful bouquet of white roses.
“Are those for me?” Elizabeth asked.
“Yes they are. Tomorrow after the handy man arrive to repair the door, we can go out shopping for some more clothes, before our parents arrive,” Jason said.
“Okay, when are they coming over?” Elizabeth asked.
“I invited them for Friday night, because we have to go to Denver on Saturday. The race is Sunday.” Jason said.
“Do you enjoy racing?” She asked.
“Yeah, but now everything has changed, look it’s time to go.” Jason said as he ushered her out of the building.
Come and see who's in first place
