A/N: This is not the final chapter, guys, don't worry. I decided to make a couple more so that they won't be super long as one. Enjoy!
Author's P.O.V.
The venue went on for hours and hours. The sun was completely set and in its place proudly illuminated a full moon. The set up was majestic under the moonlight, the flowers seemed to reflect the light and glow like earthly stars. There was a soft breeze dancing with the music in the background, muffled by the clinking of glasses and plates.
Everyone had stuffed their tummies with food and drinks, happy and satisfied. Italian cuisine had surpassed everyone's expectations and naturally, everyone looked pregnant. Even Minho's cats, that looked pregnant all the time.
For the younger people the night wouldn't end here. While the older people, parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles were slowly biding their good nights to everyone, withdrawing to their hotel rooms, the rest took the party to the beach down the Villa. It was an isolated area, a private beach of the Villa, so the after-party could go on without interruptions.
The space was much cozier than the fancy reception setting. There were pillows and rugs thrown on the soft sand, fairy lights and warm-lit paper lamps brightened the surroundings. There was no music playing but the sound of waves crushing on the shore and the wind whistling.
The bride had changed into a more comfortable dress than her elegant wedding one. It was shorter and with less tulle, but equally as sparkly. The bridesmaids changed into a more comfortable attire as well, and switched their high heels to sandals. As for the groom and his men, all they had to do was get rid of the bow-tie and suit jacket, loosen a few buttons of their white dress shirt and were all set for the after-party. Lucia and Lorenzo needn't change anything on their attire, they were comfortable enough, as they had suffered far more uncomfortable clothing than this.
"Ah, that feels nice..." Bethany breathed out as she grazed the sand with her feet. She felt peaceful. Her eyes travelled to everyone else around the beach, from Mia's cousins to Minho's, to her boyfriend, her best friends and the boys. She briefly glanced at Lucia before focusing on Lorenzo, her gaze calculating.
Do I speak now or later, she pondered.
"What's that evil head of yours thinking again?" Felix sat down right beside her, handing her a drink.
Bethany exhaled deeply, "You know exactly what."
"And when do you intend to tell them?" the freckled boy shrugged, sipping on his mojito.
Bethany didn't respond, only stared. Stared at her friends and the other people there. Seungmin laughed with Alexa at something Jisung told them, seemingly acting like cupid—or a third wheel. Changbin and Ava chatted with a few of Mia and Minho's cousins, Nick included, while the newlyweds sneaked up on Hyunjin and Lucia's conversation to throw a few naughty remarks about the boy's swollen lips. Then, Hyunjin proceeded to chase them both away by throwing sand at them, leaving Lucia behind giggling to herself. Jeongin looked occupied taking pictures of everyone, with Jisung blocking his way most of the time to spite him. Lastly, Bethany inspected Olivia and Chan. It felt like only yesterday the two quarreled and turned everything into a battle field. But they seemed inseparable ever since that family dinner, where they talked and solved any misunderstanding between them. Bethany couldn't help but smile.
Lorenzo, who was struggling to slip away from the hungry claws of Mia's cousins, followed Bethany's eyes, and his green eyes landed on Olivia and Chan. Then, the Italian model locked eyes with Beth and he sent her a wink, to which the girl replied back with a nod.
