We cross the quarter of the forest. It's quite dark here. The canopy doesn't give any sunlight at all. Must be the snow effect. The chilled breeze makes it impossible for it to look like it's midday noon. I won't be surprised if my mouth starts condensing air right now.

Pity the plants and trees around here for they don't have their Lee Felix to turn all the cold into warmth, do they?

I haven't been here ever before. It's a huge one and gets dense if we delve deeper. We walk in silence. Not a word uttered.

But I won't ever shut up the way he grabs me when I almost trip over a branch.
The body may die and rot but his imprints shall remain forever on my skin.

Finally reaching the foothill, we find his bike there on stand; as if it had been waiting for our arrival.

He puts on his mask, cap and glasses. Such a shame to have this kind of beauty covered. I follow him and get on.
"I was texting my P.A for the bike, bitch. Not girlfriend." -- "Whatever"

We ride in silence too. I don't know about him but I surely am contemplating how tf did I end up with Lee Felix all the way here to such an extent that I am legit eloping with him?

The flashbacks of yesterday when I first sat with him on his bike occupy me. Skipping all the hurtful parts, I let my skin burn at the memory of his touch on my thigh.

I don't realise how early we reach the shop. Okay, so he wasn't kidding. We are at in fact The Prier Boutique; the most expensive one in town- bigass, luxurious, majestic.

I can't afford this shit, hell no.
"Lix, Prier is expensive. Let's shop somewhere else." I say getting off the bike.

He is already entering the shop ignoring me. Man, is he pissed or something? I tiny run to catch up. The doors are opened for us.
"I told you I don't wanna shop here-"

"Welcome Mr. and Mrs. Lee, we've been waiting for your arrival. How may I help you today?" A lady attendee bows to us.
Holy shit did she just-

"Ah no, you got us wrong... W-we aren't- you know.." I can feel myself flush. The lady gives me a confused look and I glance at Felix for backup.
Why isn't he taken aback by the fact that she mentioned us as a couple?!

"We would like to shop for the prom night." That's all he's got? Bro-
"Sure let me show you the way around." She leads us deeper into the shop.

Numerous wedding gowns shine. The interior looks more expensive than the dresses on display.
Some of 'em are so beautiful that it makes me doubt if humans deserve to wear them.
I spot our tiny reflections in the chandelier hung high above on top of us. There are two more floors to the building.

I want to shop for my wedding from here one day.

That's when it hits me.
"You seriously booked an appointment sorta thing for us here, lix?" I whisper from behind while we take the spiral staircase leading to another glorious floor filled with dresses of different colours.

"For you."

I let that whisper settle in my heart while taking in the sight of the new floor. This floor- is more beautiful. There are dresses which a princess would possibly wear. My legs guide me to a dress at the front filled with all glimmer and shine in pink.

"Wow." is all that escapes from my mouth. I touch the fabric of it and it's smooth as fuck. I start giggling like a baby who gets excited when he sees toys.
"I'll leave you both in company. Call me if you need help."

The lady walks downstairs leaving me along with Felix.
Apparently, I and him are the only people in this shop; if we don't count the lady.
How did he manage to book it for all by ourselves?! Genius.
