1 month after (8th month of pregnancy):
Piper and Alex were finally feeling ready for the big day. Piper's dress was simple but elegant, a white dress with lace detailing that highlighted her rounded belly. Alex was wearing a dark blue suit, perfect for the occasion and adorable next to Piper.
They decided to have the wedding on the beach, a place they loved because it evoked memories of happy times spent together. The waves breaking gently on the shore and the sea breeze were the perfect setting to crown their dream of love.
Nicky, their inseparable friend and companion of adventures, had been chosen to celebrate. Her authenticity, her way of approaching life with spontaneity, made her the ideal officiant. There was no one better to make that day special and unique, just like the friendship that bound the three women.
The weeks were fast-moving between preparations, and moments of extravagance among friends. Only Piper knew that, despite her radiant smile, there was a small part of her that was nervous. The events of her past in prison, the fears she had faced and the unknowns of the future tormented her.
One afternoon, while they were discussing the details of the wedding, Alex took her hand. " Piper," he said softly, "no matter what happened in the past. This is our new beginning, and I want you to embrace it fully."
Piper nodded, trying to take the worries away. "You're right, I want to focus on us and our family. I can't wait to see you together, on the sea, surrounded by all the people we love."
The day of the wedding was approaching and emotions intensified. They would soon celebrate their love, a love that had grown even in the darkest moments, and they would begin a new chapter of their lives, filled with hopes and dreams.
