Reverie Dyad

Chapter 47

Iris POV:

Stepping into the banquet hall with my arms hooked on both of their arms I let out a nervous breath. Scanning the room for my parent's table I catch my mom standing up. I look back at each of them nodding toward the table in the front

"I'll go first and then you follow, okay," I said unhooking my arms from them. Sudden nerves come raining down on me but I swallow them down

"We're right behind you," Reid said sensing my nerves and I smiled. I don't usually get nervous I guess I hope they're fond of Reid and if they're not well...they will be. Eventually

"They are going to love you trust me," I said assuring him. Like always his just calm and collected. He just shrugs at my words

"I'm not worried, Darling" he winked shoving his hands into his pockets. Rolling my eyes I grinned

Cole shoved at him and I couldn't help but stay for a second just to gawk at them for a bit longer

Cole wore a navy blue suit with a white turtleneck instead of a dress shirt. His dress choice makes him look sexier than usual.
Very much sexy and tech-savvy with his glasses and clean face showing off that handsome face.
It's atmospheres like this that remind me of the first time we met. Untouchable single bachelor a walking threat to any tech company out there yet I have him on his knees every other day

Reid wore an all-black suit but opted for a lighter shade of black for a dress shirt.
He left a hint of scruff on his face giving him the sexy appeal of the lonesome man I met and fell in love with. His hair is combed back courtesy of my fingers running through his damp hair while he got dressed. It gave him a comb-over effect that looks really good on him. His every stance and scan over the crowd is filled with calculation and dominance something I strongly admire about him.

The two of them together like this getting ready to walk over to my parents has me feeling like the luckiest girl in the world

With that thought in my head, I turn around. I nervously run my hand down my dress. Well here goes nothing. I start leading them towards our table.

I try to ignore the glances we get from the guests at the tables we pass. I actually never cared or thought what other people might think of me having two boyfriends but I guess being around my mom's circle has me feeling a little anxious but knowing they're here with me has me holding my head high

As we get closer to the table the guests smile at me and then peer at Cole and Reid with piqued curiosity. My dad turns around and smiles when he sees me.

He stands up embracing me in a hug and I smile hugging him back

"Hi Dad," I say and he pulls away

"Hey kiddo, thank god you're here" he turns to look at the stage as if making sure mom isn't anywhere near when he says "-your mother was talking my ear off about how you're always late" he whispers discreetly. Mom always gets so antsy when it comes to these events. Smiling I just chuckled at him

"Dad you remember Cole," I said looking back at Cole and shifting slightly allowing him to shake my dad's hand

"Cole, buddy how you holding up," he asked and Cole slightly tensed up at my dad's concern.

We haven't exactly talked about what really happened with his parents. All my dad knows is Cole is grieving his mom and his dad's
missing.

Cole just smiles shaking my dad's hand. Slightly shrugging his shoulder

"Life goes on" is what he answers and my dad gives him a grim nod

"Dad this is Reid," I say turning back to look at Reid. He catches my eye and then steps towards us. He takes his hand out of his pocket reaching out for my dad's hand to shake it
