Savannah
To say I am having a long morning is an understatement. First of all, my wedding dress and make-up lady are delayed somewhere in traffic. My hair is still not up to date, and everyone keeps bombarding me with a million questions I don't have answers for.
But regardless of everything that's going on at the moment, my mind is not here. A few days ago, I heard Leo talking to his men about not finding Victor or his body and that's very concerning. I know Victor and he won't give up on me so easily, I left Italy for a reason. He won't stop until he has me, I could feel myself tearing up. I know Leo told me several times not to worry about him, he has extra security and all that stuff but he doesn't know what Victor is capable of. What if he kills Leo or better yet Sandy or Nora, I felt myself tearing up at that thought.
"Helloooo, earth to Savannah" Nica said waving her hand in front of me.
"Yes, what did you say" I said snapping out of it and wiping my unshed tears.
"What's the ETA on the dress and make up lady?" She repeated her question.
I stared at her blankly and quietly said, "get out of my room" look I know I'm supposed to be kind but everything is getting to me. I just need a few minutes alone to gather my thoughts.
"Huh" she said confused.
"Get out, ALL OF YOU OUT!!" And everyone tried running out the door at once, yeah I've been a piece of work since I became pregnant.
"You know what, nevermind, I'll get out" I pushed everyone out the house and I went to the east wing where Leo was getting ready. Yeah we had to be in different rooms because 'it's bad luck to see a bride before the wedding' that's some old school bull.
I knocked loudly because well I heard them laughing out loud. I heard guns cocking behind the door, yeah Leo is taking this security thing quite serious. Leo slowly opened the door and his expression softened when he saw me. I looked like a mess, my face was full of tears and my hair was all over the place.
He asked softly what's wrong whilst leading me into the room. And of course Ben had something smart to say but I wasn't having none of it today. I lashed out at him then he, Gio and Yuri scurried out the room like bees.
Once they left, I let it all out. I cried like a baby in Leo's arms, I knew I'd feel better if I came to see him. I've been holding back my emotions all morning. He was whispering comforting words in my ear and I started to calm down. I pulled back from the hug while my eyes were still full of unshed tears.
He asked if I wanna talk about it, and I told him about everything that's been going on since morning and my concerns about Victor. But as always, my man pulled me into a hug and told me everything will be okay and I kept nodding. He looked at his watch and asked if I wanna take a nap. Of course I would, he knows I never say no to naps with him.
The nap was supposed to be one hour but we woke up 3 hours later to our mothers yelling in our ears.
Yeah well, we woke up and my mom took me to get dressed whilst Leo's mom remained back talking to him, I guess.
I had to change my first wedding dress to accommodate the now growing humans in my body, yes humans, I'm pregnant with twins. I had to take another shower then I got dressed, did my make up and put on my shoes. I was ready about 1 hour and 15 minutes later.
