Alaina
As I walk into the hall to let the guys talk, I can see Kenzie looking a little upset, I wonder if something just happened.
"Alaina."
She says, her voice sounding a little crackly like she's going to cry. I feel like I'm supposed to help her because I'm seeing her brother, but my heart feels for her.
"Hello, Kenzie, are you alright?"
"Honestly, I have no idea, do you know where Nick went?"
Watching her shake and the water filling her eyes. Now I know something has upset her and she's trying to keep it in.
"Yes, he's in the study with Ashton."
"He seems off and I didn't know what I did."
"I don't think you did anything, he wanted to talk about something private and didn't want me upset, so he sent me out, I'm sure it's just about my father."
How can I be of help to her if she is thinking she did something wrong? I mean he didn't seem like he was off, but he did kick me out of the room.
"Why don't we go get ready for dinner ya?"
"Okay, but still, I can't shake this feeling."
"Well let's try and keep our spirits up for this dinner, maybe you can tell me why Ashton wanted it to be formal?"
Maybe I can keep her distracted so she can think more positively. It's worth a shot and then we can figure out how to shake her negative feelings.
"I'm not sure honestly, all he said was that he wanted it to be more formal and elegant."
"That doesn't sound like him at all, I wonder what got him thinking like that."
"Oh, come on we can all see the connection between you both."
She giggles and looks at me, I mean we do like/love each other but could it really be that obvious? We try to keep it quiet, at least I thought we did.
"I mean um well."
I'm speechless and don't know what to say, I mean I won't deny it but why is it so hard to say how I feel about him, especially to his sister.
"See you are made to be with each other."
I have no words at this point, all I can do is blush and keep walking towards the rooms and just smile at her, I want to think about the perfect thing to say.
"Yes, well we will see where this goes, now why don't you get ready, and I'll meet you right here."
As I watch her nod her head, I start to open my door and take a deep breath in, maybe she was right, are we made for each other? Is he taking his time, and he just doesn't know how to ask me for something more? Okay, I'm totally over thinking this but whatever the reason may be for him to have this fancy dinner I will be ready, and maybe show him what he is missing. I walk into my room, and I see that he has a dress already picked out for me on the bed, shoes, and jewelry next to it. He is really thinking hard about this, it makes my heart skip a beat and smiles wide.
I never knew he could be this romantic, but I'm glad he is. I never thought that I would like the royal treatment, but I do, and I could probably get used to it if he decides to take this relationship further but it's like pulling teeth with him. We know that our wolves are mates, and he still wants to make me wait, he won't even kiss me, and I have tried everything.
Maybe I'm wanting something more and he doesn't. I shouldn't even be thinking like that. As I am getting ready in the outfit, he has chosen thinking I'm finished but then a ladies maid comes in to do my hair and get me ready. Am I missing some information or is he planning something?
