Amelia's p.o.v;

The wedding day,

Today is my brother's wedding.
I'm still in shock and can't get my mind off of it. I encouraged my brother away from his anxiety but it feels like I'm getting it.

The wedding itself was stunning, and the guest list was amazing in every way. Last week, despite the fact that I was unable to assist them due to my music performance, my parents pulled off their consistently fantastic job.

I stood in front of my mother after putting on my bridesmaids' dress and enquired, "How do I look, mom?"

She stated, "You two look stunning as ever. Get your brother here right away. The blooms are still on the way."

I gave a nod before leaving the wedding Avenue in search of my brother. I spotted Mike conversing on his phone as I was looking for my brother. He might be aware of my brother's location.

I approached him to inquire about my brother but instead I heard my name shouted from somewhere else. I bet it's Ash. When I tried to leave, Mike turned to face me, and he asked, "What is it?"

"Nothing."

I turned away from him and proceeded to my brother after hearing my brother scream out my name once more.

"Mom called for you." I said to my brother and asked him, "Why did you yell my name like that?"

"What were you doing with him?"

"Huh?"

"I saw you both standing next to each other. What were you two conversing about?"

I let out a sigh and told him, "What does that bother you anyway? Stop being like this and go to mom. She's been looking for you."

"But…"

Before he finished, I said, "Just leave already."

He entered the wedding Avenue after giving a stare at me and Mike who was standing far away from me.

I didn't move and turned to face Mike. Without blinking, he kept his gaze fixed on me. I averted my eyes and entered the wedding Avenue once more.

As I walked inside, I saw the guests entering and taking their seats, little children running around, boys squabbling over the ice cream stand, working on the floral arrangements, and dad speaking to Mr. Campbell.

Along with Anna's friends, Cathy and Andrew were decorating the backdrop. Hannah provided guidance for the flower girls. Caleb, a senior, was assisting mum. I'm not sure when these two started connecting. I grinned internally. Mrs. Campbell greeted visitors to the wedding and engaged them in happy conversation.

"You appear content." I heard a whisper in my ears.

"I am, yes."

Who was behind me, I wonder?

"Mike, come over here," said Ash. I then realised Mike was behind me. Mike walked past me and headed to Ash. I bet Ash called him to warn him again. I smiled to myself thinking how Ash is when it comes to things lie this.

Mike and Ash walked over to me after talking with each other. They didn't utter a word and looked at me.

"What is it?" I asked Ash.

Ash said, "The florist stated there was no one available to deliver the flowers, so go with Mike and bring the flowers here."

"Are you kidding me? Do you know how difficult it is to walk in this outfit already? And, now you're asking me to get the flowers."
