First of all, I want to apologize (again!) for taking too long with my chapters! School, driving licence, family, boyfriend and, now, Halloween! So much is happening these days and I'm a CRAZY FREAK for Halloween! I'm going out with my friends and I'm finishing my outfit and getting everything ready for my makeup, so I'm very busy at the moment! I hope you understand :)
NOTE1: Two chapters today! Chapter 30 is on the way, but for now, stay with this lovely chapter 29.
NOTE2: This is Richard's wedding suit (except the tie) and Olivia's dress for the date :) https://scontent-mad1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xfp1/v/t34.0-12/12180090_10206371794192023_654533852_n.jpg?oh=38ef7c2d2dc0a6a7a38c2955a67d5b3f&oe=56354561Enough talking! Enjoy :D
(Richard's POV)
I finished my breakfast that morning and left some ready for Olivia. She was still sleeping upstairs in our bed, so I couldn't wake her up. I climbed up again and picked up a piece of paper from her office and wrote a note.
«I'll meet with my mother today. We'll go shopping, since I decided to be a lady for one day.
I hope to see you gorgeous tonight, we are going somewhere special. Love you.» I left it on my pillow, beside her, and leaned in to kiss her forehead. She was sleeping like a true angel, so peaceful and quiet. I left my home and made my way to the car. Next stop: Shopping. How great...
I never was a shopping guy. I always left that business to my mother or any women I knew, but, for my wedding, I had to move and go shopping. The real thing was: where to start? I was walking in one of the corridors when I saw my mother. She smiled and waved at me, until I reached her side.
-Richard, my dear! Good morning. -she greeted, kissing my cheeks.
-Good morning, ma. How are you? -I asked, giving her my arm, so she could grab it and we walked slowly.
-I'm fine! Very excited to see my beautiful son wearing a suit for his wedding! You will be the most gorgeous groom on earth! -she said, super excited. I blushed and nodded. I still couldn't believe I was about to get married in some weeks... I will only believe it when I see my beautiful Olivia coming down the aisle.
-Stop it, mom, it's just a suit. -I said, making her laugh.
-Just a suit... It's your wedding suit! And it has to be perfect! Now, shall we start? We have a lot of work to do! -She said, tapping my shoulder. We walked inside a story that was only covered with men's suits. Grey, white, black, blue, they had suits in every color possible! My mother started to look around and she grabbed around 6 pairs of different suits.
-Are those really necessary? One is enough. -I said, near her ear, so the ladies in the store wouldn't listen. My mother turned to me with a shocked look in her face.
-Listen to me, boy. When you're shopping, one piece of clothing is never enough. Especially when you're marrying soon! Now be quiet and let me work. -she said, turning her attention back to the suits. I sighed and looked around me. I wondered what Olivia was doing and how she was feeling... I suddenly imaged her dressed as a bride and my heart skipped a beat. I couldn't wait to kiss her soft lips after saying «I do», I couldn't wait to get her wedding dress off after the big day and make love with her until the first sun light comes up. My thoughts were interrupted by my mother.
-Time to see how these fit in you, big man. -she said, handing me the mountain of suits she had in her hand. I grabbed them and locked myself in the testing room. I grabbed one suit randomly and started to put it on.
-Is it supposed to be white? Because I don't usually see a groom in white. -I said, putting on my trousers.
-Shut up and dress! -my mother replied outside. I laughed, looking myself in the mirror. I looked so weird! White suit, white shirt, white bow and a red thing in my pocket. I looked... more like a gypsy! I came out of the tester and my mother widened.
-Oh, my lord! Take that thing off! -she said, covering her eyes.
-Excuse me, miss, but you're the one who chose the suits for me! -I said, laughing endlessly.
-Yes, yes, I've seen it. Now take it off and put on something darker! -she said, still covering her eyes. I got back inside the tester and started to strip my clothes again.
-This is going to be a long day... -I whispered, looking myself in the mirror.
(HOURS LATER)
-There! That's the one! -she said, jumping from the couch. I had to admit, I was looking very good. It was a simple dark grey suit with a waistcoat. Underneath, a white shirt with a black bow. Black shoes to match everything. I felt a bunch of butterflies running inside my stomach and I my brain clicked instantly: «I'm really getting married...», I thought, watching a smile growing in my lips.
-This one looks pretty cool, mom. -I said, still looking myself in the mirror and kind of acting like a model.
-You look gorgeous, my son. -she said, getting up and hugging me. I held her tiny body against mine and closed my eyes. The love of a mother is like no other in this world and I was so lucky I had the best mom I could ever wish for.
-Thank you. For everything you've done for me. -I said, releasing the hug and kissing her forehead. She looked at me with tears in her blue eyes.
-Know this. The biggest mission of a mother is to make their children happy. It's a mission for life, no matter how old we are. -she said, rubbing her fingers in my cheeks. I quickly changed into my normal clothes and we both paid the suit. I wanted to pay it by myself, but of course she paid more than half of the price. Then I gave her a ride home and I found some 10 minutes to talk to my father a bit. I knew I couldn't take much longer, because I had to pick Olivia and take her to somewhere very special that evening.
(Olivia's POV)
-Sophie, how do I look? -I asked her, coming out of my closet. Her eyes widened and she covered her mouth.
-Miss...! You look stunning! This is the most beautiful outfit you've ever used! -she said, with excitement in her tone. I looked myself in the mirror for the 1000th time. I was wearing a dress given to me by my father, a long time ago, on my 35th birthday. It was all in a nude tone, almost in soft pink. All the dress had gorgeous details in lace and embroidery with some glitter in it, making it look very princess-like. My legs were showing from my knee down and my arms were fully exposed. I was wearing the purple bracelets Richard gave to me for Christmas and they got on so well with the dress. I had my hair half tied in the back with a simple white hairpin and I made some soft waves all over it. Nude heals, soft eye makeup and a dark lip color to finish my look.
-I hope Richard likes it. Do you think it's too much? -I said, turning around to face Sophie.
-Hell no, miss! You look absolutely stunning and I'm sure Mr. Richard will love it! Now go! You don't want to be late! -she said, taking my bag and coat. We climbed down the stairs and I put my white fur coat on.
-I don't even know where I'm going... -I said, fixing my hair in front of my big mirror, in the living room.
-Well, that's the good thing about a date. We never know where we are going. -Sophie said, smiling at me. My heart jumped out of my chest when I heard Richard's car horn outside.
-Go, miss! Have a great night! I'll just clean the kitchen and I'll be out. -she said, kissing my cheek softly.
-Thank you so much, Sophie! See you tomorrow. -I said, leaving afterwards. I saw Richard standing there outside the car. His eyes were sparkling and he looked to me from the top to the bottom.
-You have no idea how gorgeous you look... -he whispered when I came in front of him. I blushed when his lips touched mine in a soft, welcoming kiss.
-I've missed you all day, my love. -I whispered between the kiss.
-We have enough to speak about my day. Now, please Miss, get inside the car. We can't be late. -he said, with a sexy smirk on his lips. My head was running in a hundred thoughts. Richard was a box full of surprises and I had no idea where we were going.
