The days passed and it became increasingly difficult for Priscilla  not to ask Naty to stay.

The brunette made it all seem easier. It made the brunette feel special. It made Priscilla smile the most beautiful smile the brunette had. The one who not only showed her teeth, but showed a different glow in the brown eyes that the brunette loved so much.

Natalie knew that Priscilla felt the same way as she did, but there was something that made the brunette close, not wanting anyone in her life other than who was already in it.

As time went by, hopes that the brunette would ask her to stay in the United States were diminishing. And Priscilla's heart was squeezing even more.

But today wasn't a day to think about it.

Priscilla was too busy trying to keep Lauren calm, and Natalie tried to do the same to Camila.

It was night, the eve of the wedding. Natalie had gone to sleep with Camila and Kristen and Lauren had gone to Priscilla's house.

- Lauren please, it's more than two in the morning, if you don't sleep tomorrow you'll wake up with some giant dark circles, which even makeup won't be able to hide... - The brunette was talking to her friend who was sitting on the edge of the bed.

- Can't... I can't… - The green eyes spoke, continuing to hit a foot on the ground.

Try it! - Priscilla entered the room and pushed the brunette to lie down on the bed.

- Ai!

The brunette turned off the light and lay next to Lauren.

- Don't complain! Close your fucking eye and get some sleep!

- I just said I can't get Priscilla!

- You haven't even tried it yet! I don't know, count lamb, or something, just stop talking!

Lauren snored, but closed her eyes, trying to find some way to attract sleep.

At Lauren and Camila's house, things were calmer.

The older one was having trouble sleeping too, but she remained extremely calm. She was already lying down, with Kristen by her side and Natalie at the other end.

- How are the nerves? - The brunette asked, scaring Camila, who thought her friend was already asleep.

- I thought I'd be more nervous... But I'm actually that well... - She said while stroking her daughter's black hair. - What about you?

- I what?

- How are you doing?

- With what exactly? - Natalie asked if making herself misunderstood.

You know with what Natalie...

The brunette sighed.

- I try to understand Priscilla... I really try, but I can't... You can see it in her eyes, she has feelings for me. But she's not going to ask me to stay. I just wanted to know, what's to stop her from letting me in. To let me take care of her...

- Pri doesn't like to talk, you know...

- I know i don't... But couldn't she make a little exception for me? Because I'm going back to France in a week... I can't wait. I wanted to, but my life is there... And I can't
throw it all up... Not without her telling me what she wants... - The brunette spoke. - But why are we talking about this? It's almost 3:00 in the morning and tomorrow's
your big day... Good night Mila...

- Good night Natalie.

Priscilla woke up early. She had gone to her own room after Lauren fell asleep, which took a long time. He got up and got ready quickly, after all the morning would be full, for the wedding would be done at four o'clock in the afternoon. He went to the room where Natalie stayed and saw that Lauren was still asleep.
