A Leap of Faith (Part 2)

Chapter 241 - Alex and Sam's Wedding

Presently, Kara and Alex are in Alex and Sam's hotel room, with Alex getting ready for her wedding. Lena and Sam have already left to go to the wedding venue, and Eliza is in the other room, across the hall, with Ruby, Morgan and Alura.

"How are you feeling, Al?" Kara asks, as she sits on Alex and Sam's bed, while Alex is in the bathroom, putting her makeup on and everything.

"I'm...... a bit nervous." Alex admits.

"That is to be expected, Alex." Kara says, "I was nervous on my wedding day too. But really it was the excitement that overwhelmed my nervousness. I just kept thinking about how despite how nervous I was, at the end of the day, once the wedding was over, I'd get to call Lena my wife, and I would be hers. I know that's likely the same way you feel about Sam, and she feels about you."

"Yeah.... it is." Alex says, after a few moments silence, "I can't wait to actually be married to her. I love her so much, Kar."

"I know you do." Kara says, with a loving smile, "And I know that you already are a beautiful family. This is just another step to cementing that in everyone else's eyes."

"Yeah." Alex says.

"Have you thought about what you are going to say during the wedding? As your vows." Kara asks.

"OH MY GOD!" Alex suddenly exclaims, now coming out of the bathroom to look at Kara in the bed, with only half her makeup being done, "I haven't thought about that at all, Kara! OH MY GOD! This is horrible! Sam probably has something amazing prepared! And I have nothing! You have to help me!"

"Calm down, Alex." Kara says, realising her sister is having her first wedding day freak out right now, "We still have time to think of what you want to say."

"But what if we don't think of anything? What if we do think of things, and I don't know what to say when I get up there?" Alex asks, still freaking out.

"Alex." Kara says, standing up from the bed, and walking over to her sister, taking both Alex's hands in her own, "We will figure something out. But even if we don't, the best thing that you can do, is just say what comes to your mind in the moment. Say what you are feeling when you are standing there with Sam, looking her in the eyes, with you both about to be married. There is nothing more special than that."

"Yeah.... okay." Alex nods, taking a deep breath, "I.... I think I can do that."

"I know you can, Alex." Kara says, with a loving smile, "Now, go finish your makeup, so you can get dressed, and we have some time to think about what you want to say, before we have to leave."

"Okay." Alex nods.

Meanwhile, a few miles away, Lena and Sam have just arrived at the hotel that the wedding ceremony is going to be held at. The hotel is extremely grand, and very amazing, even more so than the hotel they are staying in. Sam can only imagine what the view from the balcony is going to look like, as they are very close to the Eiffel Tower.

Right now though, Sam and Lena are being lead to a hotel room, which Sam will use to get ready prior to the wedding. Then, after that, they will be taken to the ballroom, which has the balcony connected to it, so they can actually see the view in person.

Eventually, Lena and Sam are escorted to the hotel room they will be using, and left alone. The duo then look around the room for a few moments, just taking it in, before Sam decides to head into the shower, so that she can be washed before she puts her makeup on before the wedding begins.

While Sam showers, Lena, for her part, just continues to have a look around the room, and pears outside the hotel window, having a look at the view from the room. The view itself is not that spectacular, although that is only because the hotel room they are in is not a grand one or anything, as they will only be using it for a little while. Therefore, the view is on the opposite side of the hotel to where the Eiffel Tower is, and the room is on one of the lower floors. But either way, it's still a nice view.
