N A T A L I E

"Welcome to Lake Como, Italy."

Damon swung his arm around me making me squeal as I jumped up and down. In about three days I will be marrying the man of my dreams and the love of my life.

"Alright nobody move. We need a picture of the bridal party" Teresa said as she tapped her head piece. Damon set up the camera then put on a timer allowing him to run over to us.

We wrapped our arms around each other and both smiled as we posed for the picture. I ran my fingers through my freshly dyed hair as I yawned.

"Okay everyone settle down into your rooms then proceed to get ready for the welcome party. Everyone has to be ready and down at 6:50pm, we will be departing at 7:05 on the dot." Teresa said making us all nod at her.

"If you are there after the said time, you can just go back upstairs. Thank you!" She said as Ale walked up to her and they started to talk to each other.

"$100 Ale and Teresa hook up this weekend" I said to Nicolas making him smile at me. "We both know they are going to but let's get specific. I think tonight for sure but definitely not tomorrow and then the brunch" He said.

"I think all three days" I said making him shake hands with me, "You have yourself a bet" He said as he kissed my hand.

We walked over to the cars and got inside, I played peakaboo with Nalani as a way of distracting her so she doesn't cry.

"Alright so this is when the guys and girls separate. Girls are on the top floor and the boys are on the floor below." Teresa said as her people handed out keys.

Damon winked at me as he got out of the elevator and the men followed suit. I got myself accustomed to the master suite and took a much needed shower then changed into my robe.

I walked out of the bathroom to see Damon dragging his suitcase inside, "Once the rehearsal dinner is over i'll move back out" He said making me smile.

"We are getting married this weekend" I said as I wrapped my arms around him, "Yes I know I am so excited" He said making me smile at him as he placed his hands on my hips.

The door opened allowing Aurelia and Gisele to walk in with their big bags of whatever. "Sorry Damon you have to leave" Gisele said making me smile.

"I literally just got here" He said as he tightened his grasp on me, "Oh well" Gisele said as he kissed my head then walked out of the room.

"Hey so I was thinking that we should do another makeup drop" Aurelia said as she kept on prepping my face, "We just did one last month?" I asked.

"Yeah I know" She said making me raise my eyebrows. "How about no? And you finally tell me why you've been avoiding me and Gisele" I said.

"Getting to the real questions now" Gisele said as she kept on moisturizing my hair. "Who said I was avoiding you guys?" Aurelia asked making me stare at her.

"Do not start that coy shit right now. Get serious" Gisele said as she slapped Aurelia's arm. "The only reason Jason called you is because he found my stash" She said as she looked at us.

"Stash of what?" Me and Gisele asked. "I smoke" She said making me stare at her. "Le ruego me disculpe?" I asked making her smile at me. "Natalie relax you use to do it" She said.

"You're lying." Gisele said. "No way Jason would be freaking out over a little weed. You do not smoke goddamn weed, do not lie to me about this shit Aurelia." She said as she grabbed Aurelia by her arms.

"Okay okay Jesus Christ. He might have found a little bit of crack" She said making my jaw drop, "AURELIA HAVE YOU LOST YOUR FUCKING MIND!?" Gisele screamed making me shake my head.
