León and Violetta stood at the entrance of the reception hall, greeting guests as they handed over cards and presents. The room was full of familiar faces—family, friends, and even some of León's old crowd from the days he used to hang out with Ludmila.

Violetta didn't have many friends growing up, so the only ones she truly had were Ludmila, Francesca, and Camila. But tonight, surrounded by people who loved them, she didn't feel alone at all.

One of León's old friends stepped forward with a grin.

Ross: León! Long time no see. You look good, man.

León: "Ross? How've you been? I wasn't expecting you here."

Ross: Bro, why wouldn't I come?

León slipped an arm around Violetta's waist.

León: Violetta, this is Ross—an old friend. Ross, this is my wife, Violetta.

Violetta: Hi, Ross. I've heard a lot about you.

Ross: Nice to meet you. You're very lucky to be with León.

Violetta: Thank you. I hope you enjoy the night.

After greeting everyone, they finally made their way inside and sat at the long family table. León kept feeding Violetta little bites of food, and she couldn't stop laughing at the dramatic faces he made every time he tried to be romantic.

They were glowing—happy, relaxed, completely wrapped up in each other.

After a while, Maxi stood up and tapped his glass.

Maxi: Ladies and gentlemen, it's time for the bride and groom's first dance!

León stood and offered his hand to Violetta. She took it, and he led her to the centre of the dancefloor. As the music began, he spun her gently into his arms, pulling her close.

Everyone could see it—the love between them.
The way he looked at her like she was the only person in the room. The way she melted into him without even trying.

He leaned down, whispering something in her ear that made her burst into laughter. Guests smiled, watching them sway together like they'd been dancing their whole lives.

Violetta: "León... is your friend awake?"

León: "What? My friend?"

Violetta: "Don't play innocent. You know exactly what I mean."

He raised an eyebrow, amused.

León: "Hey, that's usually my line. And you're the one teasing me, so be careful I don't turn the tables."

I leaned in, brushing my nose against his cheek.

Violetta: "Hmm... I love you, Mr. Vargas."

León: "I love you too, Mrs. Vargas."
