Chapter 19

Alessandro and Alesso are the same people.

Maria

It's been a week since the kiss between me and Alesso. My mother, Angelo and Alesso's parents were on the moon with my acceptance of the marriage proposal.

I don't know how Theo felt about all this, he just smiled at me and left the room. Mum said he was busy with work but I hardly believe that.

The whole week has been busy. More than me, mum and Georgia we're involved in planning. They wanted a big wedding, with many guests but my ideas were completely different.

I wanted a simple wedding, maybe in the woods like twilight, that would look beautiful. I told them my ideas and both were fine with it.
The wedding is in 3 weeks. We have already booked the cake, sent invitations only the main dress is remaining. Ironic right?

Jo and Chris flew here the day before yesterday, so it's been a tough time for me because they keep making side comments about Alessandro.

Both of their reactions when I introduced them to Alesso was 'he looked like a Greek God and is hot as fuck.' I don't know why but I got a pang of jealousy.

Alesso was busy all week long because of work, so we didn't get to talk much. He used to come late when I was already asleep and gone before I was awake. But I know he has come to visit me a few times when I am asleep because when I wake up, the empty side of the bed is unmade and the pillow smells like him.

Today we are going to buy my wedding dress. I asked Jo to be my maid of honour and she said yes.

So I am now in a store with mum, Theo, Chris, Jo, Angelo and Georgia.

"I don't like it," I say while looking at myself in the mirror.

I had worn a dress which was picked by mum and she went all crazy with it. It was too big.

"Yea, me neither." Jo said and Angelo and Theo nodded in agreement.

"It is too big, it would be hard for Alessandro to find her in the dress to remove it off of her." Chris said with a smirk.

Theo and Angelo gave him a glare, mum and Georgia tried to hide their laughter and Jo just looked at me with a smug look. I was standing there like an idiot, blushing.

"I'll go change." I said, trying not to think about the comment Chris made.

After a few more dress searching, I found one. The one.

It was beautiful. It was a white dress that had a bit of elegant lace, a straight flowing gown reaching till my feet, having fine work of leaves and flowers and off-shoulder sleeves. It was so gorgeous I had started to tear up.

"Oh my God, Maria." Theo exclaimed.

I had forgotten they all were in the room.

"You look beautiful." Mum said while holding her chest.

Everyone agreed. I was speechless. Has that ever happened to anyone, you just get starstruck and then you are not able to speak anything.

"Wow." Is all I can say.

"It would look beautiful even more in the woods. It's like this dress was made for you." Georgia said.

I looked at Angelo, Chris and Jo. Chris and Angelo were crying while Jo was giving them tissues, trying to calm them down.

"You look so beautiful, I am so proud of you." Angelo cried on mum's shoulder, she patted his back.

What's going on there.

"Alessandro will love it." Jo said.

Finally, we bought the dress. I am so happy, things are going the way I want, without any disturbance. We also bought some accessories to go with it.

After shopping, we decided to go have lunch. I excused myself to go to the bathroom. I always get exhausted after stopping.

I looked in the mirror, put some powder on and mascara where needed, washed my hands and walked to the door.

Suddenly someone pulled me back by my arm and held their hand on my mouth. I let a muffled scream out, trying to get out of the stranger's hold.

"Sh, it's me, you don't need to be worried." The familiar voice said.

My heart missed a beat.

I turned and looked at the person who still held my hand and saw someone I was not expecting.

Lucifer.
