His Little Flower (Felix and Flora)

Would you like to see some in a sweetheart neckline? Bethany

“Maybe”

asks me

We are currently shopping f for my wedding dress. Only Gabriel and were going to come, originally, but Bethany insisted.

I take the dress Gabe has handed me and make my way to the changing room. It has a tight bodice with a tulle. Very thuffy. I go out, and Gabe and Bethany love it. Its just not my style, though.

“I just want something simple. I tell the saleswoman.

She nods, and shows me a couple of dresses. I try the first one. It is made completely of lace, a champagne color.

I come out of the showroom and twirl.

“I like that one.” Gabriel tells me. “You should take that.”

“Im not sure about the color.”

God, this is hard. I wish I could get married in jeans and a top. I’m sure Nico wouldn’t mind.

After a few tries, I settle on a white dress. It is floor length and has a very low dip in the back, with quarter length sleeves and a semi–deep V neck. Its simple, and soft,

and comfortable.

Gabriel buys me the dress. My father wanted to pay for the wedding. Since the venue is now Nico’s parents‘ house, the cost has reduced quite substantially. So my father will be paying for the food, the decoration, and everything else. And Emilio and Bethany are gifting us makes me uncomfortable for some reason. A honeymoon, Damn.

“Have you decided on bridesmaids?” Bethany asks me as we wait for Gabriel outside the shop as he pays up.

I hesitate. All my life, I had expected Nico would be part of my bridal party. He could be the maid of honor. At Donna Isabella’s wedding, her friend Aiden had been her maid of honor. I do not have many friends except Nico.

“I asked my cousin, Lily. And Sara from school.

Bethany nods. “I’m sure this is very hard for you,” She says, “Unexpected, and rushed, Ginny, tell me if this is not what you want. I know how Nico can

I do love him. I do. I

“I just want you both to be happy. Bethany smiles. “If you are, then there is nothing else I want.”

I am n happy.

I really am.

Nico sits down beside me on his bed, “Did you choose a dress, then?”

I nod, “Yes. Its beautiful. You’ll love it.”

“Can I see?”

“Its with Gabriel. At my house.

“I mean, at my father’s house.”

Nico sighs. “Didn’t you take a picture?”

He shrugs. “Its fine, T1 see it in like three days anyway.”

He leans in to kiss my neck, and I sigh in his embrace. He places soft kisses down the side of my neck, down my collarbone, stopping just above the Deck of my T shirt. I can’t wait to make love to you, Ginny.”

“I plan to.” He says, and grabs my neck and kisses i

I pull back, coughing Can I ask you a question?”

He nodi, pulling the covers over himself and getting comfortable in bed.

We had to invite him out of courtesy. I am sure he won’t come, but it had still been extremely awkward to address an invitation to him, knowing that he will read mine and Nico name together.

“Do you want him to come?”

I share my head, “I was just wondering Nico. It would be incredibly awkward if he came,

We fall stern, and Nito stares at the celling, “Hey,ke any of those cute cakes that Nua brought left?”

“She a great cock. Maybe she will bring some more.”

For some reason, his words sting, I know I cant bake a cake. But it hurts when Nico says it like that, comparing me to Nua

“Yeah.” I say half heartedly. “Anyway, good night”

I curl up into a ball and open Instagın my phone. Nico circles his arm around me, pulling me closet,

“What are you doing?” He asks.

“Nothing. Just looking at memes

He sight. I’m going to miss you the two days.”

I’m going to be staying at my house for two days, before our wedding. It is bad omen for the bride and groom to stay together before that, according to Situs grandmother. Besides, I miss my father. And Cabel

“I miss you too.”

I feel Nico’s palm on my stomach. If its a girl, we should name her Diana.

“Like Wonder Woman.”

few days.

Papa, Gabriel and I spend the day talking and playing board games. Papa takes a nap, and Gabe and I discuss possible names for the baby. They aren’t excited for my wedding. Not as excited as I’d expected them to be. But its fine, I suppose. I’m not that excited, either. I just want to get it over with.

Ginny, what do you want for dinner?” Papa asks me, emerging out of his room after his nap. “You worst be eating much of my food now.”

For some reason that makes me burst into tears. Its probably the pregnancy hormones. Papa sits down beside me. “What’s wrong?” He asks softly.

I shake my head. T’ll just miss you, that’s all“

He chuckles. “You’ll still work at the tattoo shop. We’ll see each other regularly”

smile. I know. I’m so stupid.

“Nico is a good man, Ginny. And you have known and liked each other for years now. Em glad you’re marrying him.”

I nod. “He’s lovely. He’s good to me.”

“I want

a pastrami sandwich.” I tell him. He chuckles. ‘Pastrami it is, then ”

Papa whips all three of us sandwiches. They’re yummy as always. When I was younger Papa would make these all the time. They had been my mom’s favorite, too. God, I missed my mom. She would have helped with me all this,

After dinner, we watch a movie, then we all go to our separate rooms. I curl up in bed. Tomorrow is to be a long day. Gabe had wanted to throw me a bridal shower. We’ll have it at our place, and then lunch.

I reply to a text from Nico, then keep my phone to the side, just as I’m about to fall asleep, it buzzes with a text. Its a number that’s not saved, but one I know very well. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
