The Bride In Black

Part 61

I woke with a stretch and a yawn in our warm little cottage, but as my eyes cleared I noticed I was all alone. "Hello?" I whined but no answer so I slipped on a dress for the day and hurried down expecting to see him in the kitchen or the shower but I saw a large bouquet of roses on the table in a sweet vase with a little note. I smiled and opened the little note up seeing his sweet handwriting 

'Good Morning My darling, 

I was going to wake you but you looked so beautiful sleeping so soundly,

You have a nice day all to yourself I have some work to do in the workshop where I'll be if you need me 

I love you and I'll see you later 

X Thomas'

I smiled and gave the flowers a bit of an arrange, I headed out grabbing a jacket on my way and walking though the grounds following the path along until I arrived at the spa heading inside seeing it wasn't empty

"Ohh there you are, Hello y/n" His mother smiled to me as she sat working on her nails 

"Y/n!" Ava smiled rushing over clearly just out of the sauna 

"Hi" I giggled "everything okay?"

"Course workmen are busy" his mother smiled 

"And Olivers In the garden working with his flowers" Ava smiled 

"Aww that's sweet" I smiled "we haven't been back long," 

"Where is my idiot of a brother anyway?"

"workshop"

"Oh whats my son tinkering with now?"

"no idea he was gone when I got up" I answered heading to sit with them to do my nails too 

"Huuuuuu! yay!" Ava yelled as she saw my hands and of course my ring "yes! I get a sister in law!" she smiled giving me tight hug 

"it is a beautiful ring, he didn't say he was getting you one of those just yet"

"well it was quiet a spur of the moment thing" I giggled

"Its beautiful, trust my brother to get a large impressive ring" she sighed comparing mine to her own 

"well it was a completely unique ring and I love it so much, we wanted to make sure that it was perfect as I have to wear it forever"

"you know what we have to do?" ava smiled "Wedding planning!"
