He Shoots, She Scores

Til Death Do Us Part (Part 2 Love Her Like She's Leaving)

With Nate
Nate was pacing the back hallway of the church, his nerves were really starting to get the best of him. He runs his fingers through his hair with a sigh, hearing someone clear their throat behind him he turns to find an older gentleman
“I take it you’re Nathan”
“Excuse me?” Nate asks in confusion he was positive that he had never seen this man before yet he knew who he was
“You are Nathan Gerbe yes?”
“Yes I am, and you are?”
“About to be your uncle son”
“Oh, I’m sorry I didn’t know… how did you know it was me?”
“That was easy, you look as nervous and scared as I did when I married my wife 30 years ago”
“That obvious?”
“From a mile away! But don’t you worry about whatever it is you are worrying about because, that girl whole heartedly loves you. You could fall flat on your face walking out of this church and you wouldn’t embarrass her”
“Great something else to worry about, falling”
“Ok worrywart you want some advice as to how to keep your marriage working?”
“Only a moron wouldn’t” Nate says with a smile
“Well its simple really. Love her like she’s leaving”
Nate’s eyebrows lift in confusion “I don’t think I follow” Carrie’s uncle lets out a chuckle shaking his head
“Love her like she’s leaving, like it’s all gonna end if you don’t. You love her like she’s leaving, and I can grantee she won’t”
Nate nodded and met the man’s eyes “How do I do that? I know that probably sounds really stupid, but I need to know because she and I are great, at not seeing eye to eye. And I mean on pretty much everything”
Again Carrie’s uncle chuckles patting Nate on the shoulder and then pointing to a bench as they both sit he smiles and takes a deep breath “It’s sending her flowers for no reason at all, and notes on the fridge every day. An unexpected gift, at an unexpected time, that; keeps the lawyers away. I know she tells you that she’ll always be there, but I’m telling you if you’re smart… you’ll love her like she’s leaving”
“Thanks, I think I can do that”
“Don’t think you can, you have to. A woman can have any man she wants, so to keep her you have to keep her wanting you”
Nate nodded with a smile standing “I guess I have some things to work on”
“You’ve got a life time to perfect it”
Nate turned staring out the window just watching the last few people file silently into the church
“Nate let’s go dude” Tyler says turning the corner snapping Nate from his day dream
“Alright I’m coming” He says turning from the window to follow him
They make their way quietly into the sanctuary and walk briskly down the aisle and step up to the platform.

Well I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and comments as always are appreciated.
