Ashton's POV
Valentine's Day is coming up and I want it to be special. I am heading up to Riley's parents company with Alex today. Riley has no clue of what's going on. I gave Liz some money so she could "kidnap" Riley and have a girls day.
I softly gave Riley a kiss on her forehead. I wanted her to sleep, I wore her out last night and I don't want her asking me a million questions about where I'm headed.
I grabbed my keys and as I was turning the door knob I heard someone talking in the kitchen. I slowly crept towards the door as I burst in to see Alex and Liz.
"What's going on in here?" I asked. Alex was supposed to be heading towards his parents company and Liz should have been upstairs in Alex's room.
"Swear to god you will not speak a word." Alex said. "Swear!" I said as they sat down. "We eloped! " they said as I frowned. "When are you telling everyone?" I asked. "Tonight hopefully we are just going to do it in the backyard." Liz said smiling at Alex.
"Okay.... I'm happy for you guys, Alex are you ready to go?" I asked as Liz quirked her eyebrow."Yes and Liz, I love you. " he said as he kissed her and grabbed his jacket. "I love you too babe!" she said as we walked outside and jumped in the car.
"Idiot, why did you elope and not invite anyone!" I said laughing.
"It's called eloping for a reason and we thought it would be good because we really didn't want a huge wedding." he said.
"I'm super nervous!" I said as he laughed. "You're basically their son too, theirs no way they could say no." Alex said.As we pulled up we saw a big sign with Riley's and Alex's parents on it. It gave a brief discussion of what they were about. I saw people in suits running around with coffee, donuts and millions of papers. We walked to the front desk as a blonde headed woman greeted us.
"I'm Mr. Hills son and-" Alex said as she cut him off.
"Where are my manners. I'm sorry your dad's office is right down there to the left and you see that girl in the blue she will get your coffee orders." the girl said as Alex looked at me. We both smiled and walked towards the girl in the blue."Good morning, what would you like?" she asked.
"Two mocha frappes extra whip on both my lady." Alex said making her blush a deep red. "Coming right up cutie!" she said winking at us both.
"Oh the perks of a rich dad never get old." Alex said making me laugh as we walked in Mr. Hills office.
"Good morning boys, great to see you here." he said as his eyes longingly gazed at Alex who wasn't smiling anymore.
"Good morning, we just came to see what this company's all about and I have a question for you later!" I said as he smiled.
"Oh Johnny boy, is it about my dear Riley?" he said with a smile.
"Indeed it is." I said making him laugh.
"We will talk later, come boys!" he said as his personal assistant gathered all his papers and started sorting them.We walked to a little room that was weirdly not as chaotic as the front. There were millions of little desk each one with a high tech computer. The walls were covered in digital blueprints.
"This here is the quiet room, also where we watch who's buying our products and who's dropping them it's just a room to keep up with our status. " he said as everyone contently stared at their computer not even glancing at us.
We walked next door to a room full of different storage areas and it was a bright orange color. "This is were we store our very personal information only I and your mother are allowed in. It's on a super locked security system." he said as I walked out and stared at the large glass windows and I realized it was dark outside."Am I going crazy or is it really dark outside? " I said as Alex's dad laughed.
"It's the different features of our window." he walked towards it and hit it and instantly I saw the sun again.
"Oh okay!" I said as we walked to one more room. It was full of games and our coffee sat on the table.
"You boys can stay in here or look around more but I'm sad to say I have to go. I will be back to get you guys for lunch." he said as his assistant showed up and they walked away."This is super cool why don't you and Riley come up here more often." I said as I grabbed my coffee on the side it had a phone number. I chuckled as I looked at Alex's cup with the same number.
"I don't know I guess we just never bothered." Alex said as we started a game of ping pong. It started getting around lunch and Mr Hill showed up to get us in order to eat before we got back on the road."How was your day boys? " he said as we sat down at the dinner table.
"Great, now to what I wanted to ask you." I said as my hands started to shake.
"I'm head over heels in love with your daughter. She means everything to me and I was wondering if I could have your blessing to ask her to marry me? " I said as I took a deep breath.
"I knew this day would come and my answer has been the same since the day you and Alex became friends....yes." he said as I smiled big."Is there anything you need to ask my baby for her hand in marriage?" he said as he had a sip of his wine.
"Actually yes, well since she has loved Disney for like ever I wanted to propose there!" I said as he smiled at me.
"Of course I'll make the call and get the tickets to you without my baby girl knowing anything." he said as our lunch came out.
"Thank you so much you won't regret your decision." I said as he laughed. We talked about the best team in the NFL until it was about three. Alex said he needed to leave now in order to make it back for the wedding. Mr. Hill apologized for not being able to make it tonight.Riley's POV
Liz and I have had the best day. I got my toes done a light pink with a swirl design and white polka dots. She took me shopping and I got three new sundresses and three cardigans. I got five pairs of jeans and three pairs of shoes. Overall today was a shopping success."Thanks so much for today and calming my nerves about Ashton!" I said as we sat down and ate lunch.
"No problem, I have to tell you something." she said as I slowly sipped my drink.
"Alex and I eloped, we are already married. We are having the wedding tonight in the backyard and only a few close friends are coming." she said as I smiled.
"Oh my gosh that's amazing! " I said as she grinned from ear to ear.
"Let's go so we can ready!" she said as we got in the car and sped home. Ashton's car was in the driveway which made my heart skip. I opened the car door and I bolted for the front door as I literally broke my door to see Ashton lounging on my bed. I ran over and attacked his lips for a sweet longing kiss.
"Don't ever scare me like that. " I said as he smiled.
"I'm sorry I knew you would ask like ten million questions and I really needed to be somewhere on time." he said.
"It's okay I knew you wouldn't just leave me, I'm addicting!" I said sarcastically and he whispered in my ear.
"I know." he said in a deep husky voice that made me shiver.
"Let's get ready." I said as I pushed him out my room and dragged Liz in with Lucy on her arm.
"Hey beautiful mommy person." I whispered in her ear. She still didn't want it publicized.
"Okay ladies, beautiful mode as been activated!" Lucy said as she pulled out her "guns"."Okay ladies who's first?" Lucy said. I let Liz get her hair done while I did my makeup. Then I got my hair done. Two hours later we were all dressed head to toe in beautiful dresses.
The wedding started shortly after. There were periwinkle lights hanging up and light pale pink flowers. Alex looked like he was hungover and still drinking in love. I laughed as they exchanged vows. There kiss was one to remember it was like three minutes long. Everyone clapped as they walked back down the aisle. There wedding was a success and my baby hadn't left me. I guess today was better than normal
