a few days later, after being very happy from an amazing birthday, things end up being slightly stressful.
it being february in a few days time, sophia decides on calling violet for a video call to talk about her wedding. as if it's not literally next month.
violet sits in bed, only wearing her sleep shirt, no shorts or pyjama pants on. having not woken up long ago. she opens up her laptop, accepting the call.
"violet!" sophia shouts down the call. "i've missed you! how are you?"
violet takes a breath, preparing herself for this conversation, "i'm good, yea, things have been going great here," she smiles lightly. "how are you? how are things with joey?"
"things are amazing," she answers. "we've been making final arrangements for our wedding— thinking of, i need to give you dates and locations. oh! and i've got your dress here to show you."
violet nods, not particularly happy that sophia waited all this time to tell her the dates of this wedding. nor is she very excited to see what wonderful dress' the bridesmaids will be wearing.
"so, our wedding is on february twenty-eighth, and we're having it at that beautiful hall that has outdoors and indoors areas. it's going to be perfect." she tells violet. "we're booking the hotel next door to the venue for everyone the night before and after the wedding."
violet picks up her phone, quickly writing that information down. noting that sophia isn't giving her much time to plan ahead for this. yes, she has the whole month. but for going to another state, violet wanted a little more warning.
"okay, and this is your dress," sophia stands up, grabbing out the dress, holding it up for violet to see. "here we go, it's straight but loose fitting, with a nice leg slit down the side. what do you think?"
"um," violet hesitates. "the colour is beautiful—"
"i know you already said about not liking the slit too high so i can get it sewn up for you," sophia offers. "but i think it'll look great, the slit just gives an extra sexy spark, you know?"
"right." violet awkwardly nods. "when are you wanting me to get to ohio?"
"if you could get here—"
"hold that thought," violet cuts her off after hearing a knock at the door. "someone's at my door, give me one second."
she gets out of bed, not particularly thinking about putting pants on for this. assuming it'd be her aunt or a delivery, where she'll only need to peep around the door.
quickly walking down the hall, she opens up the door a little amount, seeing ashton standing there with coffee from starbucks.
"oh, ash, hey," she greets. "um, this is so awkward. i don't have any pants on right now."
"am i too early?" he asks, suddenly worrying after he'd turned up without texting.
"no, no, not at all," violet shakes her head. "i've been up, just on call with sophia, so i haven't bothered to put anything else on."
"with sophia?"
"yea, about her wedding." violet explains. "you can come in though, i want my coffee and cuddles."
violet opens the door further, letting ashton inside. he slips his shoes off, passing violet her coffee after doing so.
"do you want me to put something on?" violet asks.
"if you're comfy like that i don't mind." ashton smiles.
violet nods, leading the way down the hall to her bedroom, ashton following. closing the door behind them once inside.
