It was finally time for me to go in as the song can't help falling in love with you was played. I locked my hands with my father as we marched down the aisle with my face down.
Unknowingly, I clenched tighter into my dad's arm and only when I felt his warm hand on mine did I look his side and realized what happened
After whispering " I love you" and hugging me once more I was handed over to my husband.
I had been avoiding any form of contact him, but when I finally looked at him, I did a double take. I was beyond stunned.
Victoria description did him no justice, he had the most intense blue eyes that I had ever seen and a firm jawline, his chest gave a new definition to broad and his suit fitted him perfectly in every area and for a moment I wondered how he looked without a shirt.
He was beautiful
I know it sounds weird when you call a man beautiful but I was at loss for words to describe him.
I gave him a small smile, but instead I was met with his emotionless stare. I totally turned out the pastor and only turned in when I needed to say "i do"
Like I have any other choice!.
Cue the eye rolling.
We exchanged rings and when he said ' you may kiss your bride ' I froze. I looked up to him and he looked hesitate as his eyes left mine for a moment.
Finally, there was something we agreed on.
A light and silent sigh left my lips as I momentary Lower my eyes away from him. Looking back once more, I watch him taking a step closer.
Wait!...
What...? Does he really want to kiss me.?
He stops once in front of me, staring down into my eyes and I couldn't look away either . I'm pretty sure the surprise expression displays well across my face and the look in my eye warning him not to dare do what I think he's about to do.
Regardless, he leaned closer and closer so much my heart started to race faster within chest. An inch closer for our lip to touch, I slightly turned my head away, clearly rejecting his advance. That should be a enough to retreat him.
Right!.
Instead I felt his hand slid into my back and before I realize what was happening, he pulled me even closer till there was no space between us. The moment my eyes met his face, his lips locked on mine.
My heart raced faster that I fear it might jump out of my chest and end up malfunctioning.
I was frozen. I couldn't do anything. His lips felt so nice and soft on mine.
His kiss deepened and I felt his hand tighten a bit as If surrender my eyes slowly shut.
Suddenly, he pulled away from the kiss and as I flutter my eyes open, I met a pair of eyes staring down at me as I saw something different in them.
Applause erupted and he looked away as we were jogged back to reality.
His hand left my back as he stepped away, a strange feeling took over as I watch him try so hard not to meet my eyes anymore.
What does this actually mean...?
Why did he kiss me like that?. why did it feel so familiar?.
And most of all.... why did I kiss him back?.
I shrugged it off not putting to much thought in it.
The reception was beautiful but I wasn't interested, nervousness was eating me up and only replied a thank you to anyone who came and congratulated me when I don't even know half of them.
Dancing to a slow song, I let my head rest on my dad's shoulder. It felt nice and comforting, untill it was disrupted by Giovanna
" Excuse, can I have a dance with my wife "
"Of course son" dad said as he gave my hands to him not before placing a kiss on my head.
The music kiss me by Ed Sheeran was playing at the background.
" You look stunning, if it isn't obvious" Gio said
" Thank you, you look handsome too" I stutter not expecting his voice to sound so sexy and deep.
An amused look grazed his face as his eye twinkle. We kept on staring at each other not looking away as if we're captivated.
The sound of the MC pulled us out of our moment as we were asked to cut the cake.
After cutting of the cake , Giovanni was beside me and hands around my waste but he was too stiff and I became uncomfortable in his hold. His change of altitude made wonder if I imagined everything that happened few hours ago.
After our finally good bye to our family and guest, we were ushered into a car which took us to the hotel we were staying.
The hotel was marvelous, and shockingly... not! It belong to the Reeves. We were directed the penthouse which was on the last floor, it had two rooms which I was greatful for.
" I'm going to leave to freshen up, do you need me to order anything for you" Gio asked
I wonder what crawl up his ass and died, one minute we were having the next he acting cold
" No, thank you. I'm just going to sleep."
" We leave at 8 tomorrow morning, so get up early"
" Sure, no problem" I said rolling my eyes
He walked out after giving a stiff nod.
" We leave by 8 tomorrow" I said mimicking his voice as I tried to make my gaze hard and dangerous like him.
I sigh as I walked into the bathroom to freshen up greatful to Vicki for packing me a bag consisting of a night wear and a clothe to wear tomorrow, the rest of my stuff were sent to Giovanni place.
After freshening up, I plopped into the bed has I drift off to Dreamland.
