Our Secret Dream 2

Wedding Receptions Pt.2

I excuse myself from my seat beside my husband at the head table and anxiously walk over to my maid of hour Quinn, tapping her shoulder gently to get her attention.

'You okay?' She asks her eyes roaming over me making sure I have no clear injuries.

'Can you help me in the ladies?' I whisper leaning in close to her ear to prevent the boys hearing me. My heart pounding inside my chest for a many number of reasons.

I know I shouldn't be embarrassed but I don't want them knowing that I need assistance. My dress isn't nearly as big as my ceremony dress but I still can't hold the train at the back up whilst bending down to pee. Not to mention I need some one on one Quinnie time. If I don't speak to someone I feel like I'm going to erupt and ruin our whole day - my anxiety and flight instincts are fighting to take over...

Laughing at my discomfort Quinn nods pushing up from her seat and taking my hand in hers. Bella winks at us as we start to walk away, becoming distracted by her own man.

We only make it a mer three steps before I feel someone's hand on my elbow. Forcing us both to come to an abrupt stop.

'Where are you two sneaking off too?' My husband asks as Dom stands beside him watching us with a suspicious glint in his dark broody eyes.

My lips part as I look back to Quinn over my shoulder not sure what to say. She seems to notice my reluctance to answer him..

'Girl talk' she informs them a commanding edge to her voice.

'It's our reception'

'You might be her husband B but she's my sister.' Quinn informs him before tugging me out of his grasp and walking us away. Immediately putting an end to this conversation.

Stupidly I look back over my shoulder to see Dom leaning over to Bryan whispering something in his ear as he watches me. His chest rising and falling fast.

I lift my hand to my lips and blow him a kiss loving how his gaze softens. After a second he catches my kiss and taps it against his chest. Making my heart flutter. We continue walking before we move around the corner out of sight and rush into the ladies room.

'Are you okay?' She asks me as she reapplies her lipstick. A deep red shade that looks very similar to the colour of a merlot. Her eyes watching me intently from the mirrors reflection.

'Yeah. It's just a lot to take in. Being out their. Centre of attention.' I'm rambling. How am I feeling so overwhelmed. I planned today.

'As expected.'

'What do you mean?' I ask my brows furrowed together as I slip out my matching tube of lipstick from the slip in my corset. Heading over to the mirror to touch up my lips.

'You might be a girl in the spot light for her career but you didn't start out this way. It's only been a year since you made your whole life public. I think it's normal to feel overwhelmed' Her voice more serious than it has been.
