"Wonderful, but the wedding is go to be a strange one plan"

"How's that"

"Well look at me I've only meet your parents a couple of times and the last time was three years ago, what are they going to say when we turn up on their door step three years after our last visit, saying that we are to be married and with me looking like this. They'll either think I'm wearing some sort of costume and that I've gone completely bonkers or believe me, freak out and faint at the sight of me"

"I suppose your right there I guess I'll have to keep this from my parents for a little while, but what about your parents do they know about what has happened to you"

"Yes they do, I had hoped to keep it from they until I had thought it through first so I could tell them in the least shocking way possible, but the hospital had called them before I could, they told them straight out what happened to me, so the day I got home I found a plate fresh baked cookies, cakes and other sweet things from my mother as a get well soon gift and note written by my father saying that they stilled loved me no matter what has happened to me and that my mother couldn't bring herself to write on the note so she bake me the sweets instead. She was never any good at handling stressful situations, my father was always the stronger of the two, in the past I would never have tried to take him on, but now I'm not so sure he would be able to take me on, but I haven't seen or spoken to them since, so I really don't know anything about how they took the news, whether they wrote that note so I wouldn't have to worry about them or if it really was genuine"

"Well why don't you call them see how they're really taking it"

"I suppose your right I thought that because they left the get well soon gift I didn't really have to call them" he pulled himself up of the floor along with Nikki but he didn't notice.

"Oh you've become so strong."

"Huh what" he looked down to find Nikki still hanging off his chest her arms wrapped tightly around him, "heh thanks so where's the phone its not on the charger" looking over at the empty phone charger that was sitting on a small wall table.

"Oh it's in my bedroom that's where I ran with it after you called, you really broke my heart that day you know"

"I'm extremely sorry about that, but we're back together now so we can put it behind us right"

"Oh your not getting off that easily mister" with sly look in her eyes as he walked off to get the phone.

"Oh really what are you going to do to me"

"You'll see"

"Is that so well I hope your not to rough me I might still be a little fragile"

"Just go call your parents already will you"

"Ok, ok I'm going" as he walked into Nikki's room he noticed that it was a complete mess, clothes strewn everywhere, there was even a pair of her knickers hanging from the ceiling fan, he wondered why, but quickly pushed all possible responses out of his head, he didn't really want to know. He sifted through the mounds of clothes and he eventually came across the phone and headed back to the lounge room, "Found it"

"What took you?"

"Well apart from the fact it was basically buried under what looks a avalanche of clothes, I'm not really sure"

"Oh you noticed"

"How could I not notice you have a three foot deep covering of clothes in places, I didn't even know you had that many clothes, what happened"

"Well the day after you rang and broke up with me, I kind of went ballistic with anger and in lack of what I really want hit I substituted something else in his place"

He gave a nervous chuckle "Well as I said I'm extremely sorry, but I only did it because I thought it would be best and I was wrong so very, very wrong"

"Yes I know like you said before and I forgive you so can we move off this topic please. You can call your parents in here if you want and I'll leave if you want as well"

"No, no stay I want you to here when I them the good new"

"You're going tell them that you're engaged, but your not going to mine"

"Well seeing as though they already know about my current condition I can tell them, but if you want to call your parents and tell them go right ahead I'll be right here to help you" he offered her the phone.

"No you call your parents first"

"Thanks", he dialed in the number and pushed send. He had to hold the phone away from his ear while the phone dialed, to him it was like a screeching banshee. "Arrrrr"

"What's the matter?"

"Nothing, its just the phone, have you noticed how loud this thing is when it dials, it sounds like a banshee wailing in my ear"

"Really I couldn't hear anything"

"Hello...hello" the greeting emitting from the phone

"Oh hello mum"

"SPHINX!!!" came a shrilled response, "Oh I can't believe you've called, I've been so worried about you, when you never called after we left you that get well gift"

"Yeah I kind of guessed, listen the reason that I'm calling is to let you know that I might be getting married soon" he heard a clattering sound on the other end of the line and guessed that his mother had dropped the phone in shock, "um mum, mum you there" heard her pick the phone back up.

"Yes I'm still here you just surprised me that's all, now what was it that you said"

"I'm getting married" the phone dropped again "oh for the love god"

"What's happening?"

"Mums dropping the phone after each time I tell about our engagement"

"Well that's certainly nice of her"

The phone was picked up again, but it wasn't his mother this time it was his father.

"Now tell me who this is and what is it that you're telling my wife that is making her drop the phone"

"Dad it me Sphinx and I'm getting married" again the phone dropped "Jesus h. Christ how can I get a half descent convocation with anyone if they dropping the phone"

"Sorry about that the phone slipped" Sphinx knew that was a lie cause he knew his father would have never let the phone slip through his fingers like that, but thought against arguing the matter, "so what was that you said again"

"I'm only going to tell you once more only if you promise not to drop the phone again it's getting quite annoying"

"Ok I wont so what did you say again"

"Listen very carefully I'm...getting...married"

"Your what...to who...are you sure you in your current state"

"I'm getting married to Nikki, you remember her don't you, the girl I was dating behind your back in year 12, the really nice girl that I took to the year 12 formal remember"

"Yes I remember all to well, your mother went completely ballistic at you and you were lucky I was there when it happened or she may have kill you or last broken some bones"

"Yeah I know all too well how violent mum can get when she snaps, well getting of that topic I'm getting married to her, we're not sure when though I only proposed about thirty minutes ago"

"Are you sure that was wise"

"Well she did tell me to call you and see how things were and I thought what the hell I'll tell you about the engagement as well, so now that I've told you do you have anything to say to me about it, oh and tell mum not to try and stop us up we're going through with it with or without her help, although it would be nice to have it, so can you tell her and have her call me back at home once she's clamed down, thanks"

"Where are you now?"

"I'm at Nikki's right now"

"How'd you get there?"

"Rourke drove me, he called around my place this morning and convinced me to come out and it wasn't pretty either, the first place he took me to the local pub, but that didn't pan out to well, I ended up almost being beaten to death by a group of drunks, but I got out unscathed, please don't tell mum about it I don't need her worrying about me any more than she already is ok please promise me dad"

"Ok I promise not to tell your mother about your little run in at the pub"

"Thanks dad bye love ya"

"Bye son" and he hung up the phone, as did Sphinx.
