Chapter 39~ Amelia

Today we leave.

Yesterday was great, I laughed with my cousins and tried to escape the other married woman and their questions which ended up with me hiding behind the bar and when Niko ordered a drink I popped out and made him a disgusting drink but he pretended he liked it.

He didn't have to I knew it was horrible.

But I still liked the way he drank all of it and tried not to make a face.

"Wake up, Amelia," my mother said from beside me her tone a little angry since this is probably the 6th time she tried to wake me, "5 more minutes," I mumbled, "Come your husband is already up and taking a shower."

I mumbled something else I have no idea what I said and nether did my mother "Amelia," she warned and I turned on my stomach placing the pillow over my head.

Why is the flight in the morning when we went to sleep around 2 in the morning "But it's so early," I mumbled again "Its one in the after noon," she said like I was stupid "Amelia up, now," she yelled.

I hummed and she sighed, "I forgot how stubborn you are," she said with anger laced with her voice, the bathroom door opened and I heard Niko's heavy steps "Sorry about her, Domenico," my mother apologized.

"It's not easy waking her up," I heard him say than the sheets were ripped off of me and I hissed at the cold opening my eyes and tried to grab the sheets again but Niko pulled them away.

I rose into a sitting position, "Get ready, Amelia, I hung a dress in there I want you to be ready when I come back," mama warned, I looked at her and she seems red than usual than I looked over to her side and saw Niko with only a towel around his hips, very low.

There are drops of water running down his abs, she keeps steeling glances to him, that's disgusting.

I got up and rolled my eyes "Alright fine," I said and she nodded about to leave but there was Niko in her way, she is flushed "Ok, mum, bye," I grabbed Niko by the knot of the towel to pull him out of the way and she cleared her throat and left.

"Do you want me to join  you," Niko asked "What?" I looked up at him "Do you want me to join you in the shower," he caressed my hair then his thumb brushed over my cheek.

"No," I said and walked past him and closed the bathroom door behind me. I took off Niko's t shirt, I didn't want to wear one of my dresses last night so I stole a shirt, but he doesn't mind. I stepped into the shower and the air is still warm after Niko's shower.

I washed my hair and applied some products in it to keep it straight so it doesn't curl up, I looked over to were the dress is hanging, It's a white dress, with puffy long sleeves and knots on my sides.

When I tried it on it fell a little higher than my mid thigh. Father is going to tell me something for sure. I tied my damp hair with a clip at the back of my head with the little strands of hair that came out from the clip in front of my face.

I applied some mascara and some lip gloss.

I wore the black heels that mother left me and wore the necklace of the flower Niko gave me and some earrings to complete the look.

I arraigned the wedding ring that I have to wear at all times and looked at myself in the mirror, "Amelia, are you ready?" I heard my mother say from outside, "Oh, Niko, you look very handsome," she giggled.

Oh come on, mama.

"Oh this, I just put on what I found," I can almost see the blush coating her cheeks, I opened the bathroom door and saw my mother with a face full of make up, her favourite dress that is suppose to be for occasions only and her hair in a low bun.
