Harry Edward Styles 

I wake up to the sound of a loud car honk. "We're here!" Gemma squeal musically.

I rub my tired eyes and look outside the window on my left. We're currently parked in a small, surprisingly light, alley. And to my right, there's this brown gate that leads to a small building. I'm confused. I thought we're staying in that huge villa from the pictures that Gemma showed me. 

See, you can never trust pictures online. 

I look up to make sure I'm not dreaming, "Uh... Why are we here?" I speak my mind.

"This is just-" 

A man with a full tux and neat blonde hair knocks on her window, cutting her sentence. She jumps.

He greets her from outside her window, "Welcome back, madame," He smiles, Gemma opens her car window, "I see you brought more guests. Let me get your bags."

"Yes, thank you, Frederick." She smiles back, "Okay, let's go."

Still confused.

Summer and I get out of the car and go inside the gate that's half-open. We enter the small building, more like a small hallway, that has these small wood tables with candles on my right and left, and a big door in front of me. 

 "I haven't finished my sentence earlier," Gemma whispers to me, "It's just the entrance,"

She opens the door, the natural light exposes the dark room we're in. The first thing I see is the huge architecture I really saw in the pictures. It has light beige walls along with small veins covering it. A row of beautiful large windows from each floor. An orange-brown roof on top and green bushes with red flowers lined up around the building. 

The big carved wood door that supposes to be the main entrance opens as I stare at the building in awe. My mum walks out, "Welcome to Lake Como!" She walks towards us, "wonderful to see you, beautiful couple." She grins.

Completely forgot about this fake dating thing. I immediately hold Summer's hand and smile at my mum, "Hi, mum. We discussed this, no teasing." I whisper.

She gasps a little, "of course, sorry. Come in, please! It's hot here."

We walk through the big wooden door and step the red carpet leading us to the living room. This is a huge building, all right. There's a chandelier hanging and a full staircase heading upstairs, kinda similar to Summer's house entrance. But this is way different. It's more of a tropical and fancy concept. The walls are light beige, the same color as the outside. No flowers and a big round table in the middle, just small orchid trees on the side of the staircases. We walk straight forward, passing the staircase and entering the living room on my right. 

The living room has these huge sofas and a TV in front. The color of the walls is white now but the interiors such as tables and cabinets are emerald green. There's also a grand piano and a small bar on the left side. It's a really big living room. If you take out all the sofas, you can make it a small-ish ballroom. Maybe it was designed like that, for the wedding. Mum suddenly presses a button from the side of the living room and the curtains in front of me move slowly. Natural light exposes again. Summer and I pause to see the view. It's huge a garden in front of us that leads to this balcony. So, we walk out, passing the beautiful trees and flowers, we peak at the edge of the balcony. It's a huge lake with some more villas and roads circling it. 

I stare at this view in awe, "Holy sh-" 

I forgot mum's around. I look at her and she's eyeing me already. 

"Uh...." I stutter, "Holy Mary, mother of god." I finally correct.

Summer lets out a little laugh that's standing beside me, "So, when's the wedding again?"
