Sadie and I are snuggled on the sofa watching "The Devil Wears Prada" when the guys finally get home.

It's just after one in the morning and I know they must be beat from travelling but they show no signs of it once they join us in the living room.

Noah seats himself next to me on the sofa wrapping his arm around my shoulders so I'm comfortably pressed up against him.

"How did it go?" I ask looking up to him.

"Yeah, good. I missed my number one fan though." Noah winks at me in reply then kissing me like no one's watching.

"Knock it off you guys." Jolly groans forcing us to pull apart from each other.

"Did you gals have a good day?" Noah asks and we both nod.

"Did you find a dress?" Nick asks Sadie excitedly.

"Maybe. Yes. Don't ask me too many questions I'm hella excited and you'll manage to get too many details out of me. Your note was really sweet." Sadie smiles up at Nick.

"Did it make you teary?" Nick asks gently earning a nod from Sadie. "Aw my darling come here." Nick pulls Sadie into his chest stroking her hair. "I love you."

"I love you too." She whispers back.

"This is too lovey. I'm going to bed. Night guys." Folio declares with zero hesitation as he turns to leave.

"Yeah me too, I'll see y'all in the morning." Jolly adds following Folio closely.

I squeeze Noah's hand quickly indicating that we should leave Nick and Sadie to their own wee bubble that they're in.

"I'm pretty beat too, we'll catch you guys in the morning." Noah tells Nick who nods with a warm smile.

"But the movie, we're not done." Sadie protests.

"Sade, we've watched it like a billion time, don't worry about it. I'll see you in the morning. Night guys." I reply taking Noah's hand in mine heading for the stairs.

"So how was it?" Noah asks once we're in our room.

"Oh it was lovely. She looked stunning Noah like fucking wow. Oh and I got promoted, I'm officially a bridesmaid." I grin at Noah as I start to undress.

"Damn, big day for both of us." Noah smiles back at me cheekily.

"Big big day. How was the show?" I ask slipping into a pair of shorts and one of Noah's old band tops.

"Oh it was great, I also got a promotion." He smirks.

"Is that right?" I raise an eyebrow at him.

"Mhmm, you're looking at a groomsman baby."

"Oooo! That's so exciting!" I giggle kissing Noah quickly. "I can't wait to see you in a suit again." I whisper in reply hearing a grunt from Noah as soon as I turn my back making my way to the bathroom.

Minutes later he wraps his arms around me resting his shoulder on my chin looking at both our reflections in the bathroom mirror as I brush my teeth.

"Have you ever walked down an aisle before?" Noah asks me and I shake my head.

"Nope, this will be my first wedding actually." I reply taking the toothbrush out of my mouth to speak. "You?"

"Nope. Although not my first wedding." Noah smiles at me as he reaches for his own toothbrush. "I... uhm..." Noah hesitates unable to find the right words.
