SPOOKY NIGHT PARTY
●'I'●'I'●'I'●'I'●'I'●'I'●
THE HALLOWEEN ARRIVED SOONER THAN EXPECTED and Victoria had no ideas for her and Lorenzo's costumes for Harper's party until this morning when she saw the love bites Enzo had left on her neck last night. It was a common choice to go dressed up as a vampire and vampire's victim, but she had no other ideas and the love bites would add a nice touch to their costumes. If Victoria was truthful, she did not know what she and Enzo were doing–they were spending their nights intertwined with each other, consumed by desire and passion, yet they never discussed their feelings, they were married but still not together as a couple.
Victoria watched as Lorenzo exited the store, answering his ringing phone. Joey followed him, keeping his eyes on his boss and their surroundings while Axel remained by Victoria's side. She picked up a few items required for their costumes for tonight and proceeded to the checkout, with Axel following. The cashier efficiently scanned the items, and Victoria handed over her card. A smile crossed the cashier's face as the device beeped, signalling a successful transaction, and she returned Victoria's card along with the receipt and a paper bag.
Victoria and Axel exited the store and began walking toward Joey and Lorenzo. Lorenzo was slipping his phone into his suit pocket while conversing with a blonde girl who appeared to be around the same age as both him and Victoria. Victoria could not make out the blonde girl's full face, but her emotions started to swirl inside her. Acting on what she believed was right for the situation, Victoria approached them and casually draped her arm around Lorenzo's waist, then looked up at him.
" There you are, honey! " Victoria said, her arm gently tightening around his waist as she moved closer to him.
Enzo quickly wrapped his arm around Victoria's shoulders, drawing her closer. He gazed down at her with a smile that sent a flutter through her stomach. Lorenzo planted a gentle kiss on her forehead while she laced the fingers of her left hand with his, their wedding rings gleaming for all to see. It was easy to do this when his left arm was dropped around her shoulders. Victoria then turned to face the blonde girl, who stared at them, eyes wide and mouth agape.
" Oh my god! " she exclaimed, glancing at their wedding rings. " I can't believe it's true! When Sophia mentioned it, I thought she was joking. I still remember you two as seven-year-olds who always argued! " the girl said happily, her voice rising slightly to a high pitch. Victoria raised one eyebrow in question, trying to understand and remember who was this girl with long blonde hair. " It's me, Maya! " she added, noticing the confused looks on Lorenzo and Victoria's faces.
