Nadiné POV ~
5:40 pmJames was in the shower while I was still looking for the right dress to wear. After what felt like an eternity, I found the perfect dress.
I remember buying it a few months ago but was always afraid of wearing it. I always thought it was way too "over the top" but since tonight is quite big, why not?
I heard the shower stop so I guess James was done showering. Teenage Fever by Drake played in the background as the bathroom door opened and steam filled the bedroom.
His body was still wet. His body was covered in tattoos and had a towel wrapped around his lower body. He gained so much muscle.
I couldn't help myself. Just looking at him was so mesmerising.
"You done staring?" He asked in his deep voice that gave me goosebumps.
I felt slightly embarrassed so I turned back around and continued looking for some jewellery to match my dress.
I hear him laugh. I turn around completely confused.
"Nigga what's funny?" I ask crossing my arms.
"Oh nothing." He says still chuckling.
I knew he was laughing at me so I just rolled my eyes. I grabbed my towel before walking straight towards the bathroom.
"So what you can't take a joke?" He says stopping me.
"James I'm not playing. Move." I reply with an attitude.
"Look at me and then I'll move." He says looking down at me.
I was hesitating but it was the only way I would get pass. So I looked at him. He starts smiling at me making my laugh.
"You play too much." I say laughing before closing the bathroom door.

James POV ~I could hear music blasting from the bathroom door. I finished putting on my tuxedo and sat on the end of the bed tying my shoe laces.
I heard my phone ping from the side table so I walked over to see who it was.
Richard: I have sent a car to come and get you guys. It should be here any minute so don't be late.
I grab my phone before spraying some perfume. I went into the sitting room and grabbed my pistol. I added more bullets before tucking it in my strap.
I looked out at the view taking a deep breath. I knew that we both might not make it out alive but this shit needed to be over.
I walked out of the door taking the elevator down to the ground floor. I sat in the sitting area and waited for Nadiné to finish.
After what felt like ages, I got text from Nadiné telling me that she was ready.
I got up and watched as the elevator doors came out. This black woman came out. She had on this long blue dress that had a slit. I noticed the belt with the knives wrap around her inner thigh. Her hair was lightly curled that hanged beautifully. It was Nadiné. I couldn't even recognise her.
