Lexi's POV:

There's still a big smile on my face as Hunter & I finally walk into our hotel room, the night still feeling young. I pull out my cell phone to see if anyone else has contacted me about the wedding news. On the way here, Kristy had called to congratulate me & we both were squealing for a while. Although I kept my eyes on the road ahead, I could barely see Hunter through the corner of my eye, smiling proudly.

After we talked, Dillon had called as well. My mother & Bella are most likely already sleeping in their cozy beds at home, so I don't expect to hear anything from them til the morning.

I look around the lovely hotel room in delight. It's fairly big, being at least the size of my apartment. Scratch that, my old apartment back in Florida. Man, I am going to miss that place.

It gives off an elegant & sophisticated vibe as many high rated hotels do try with a deep, rich red colored soft rug covering all of the floor. The walls are a shade of cream, with purple designs filling the bottom of it. Having spent some of the day in here already, I've gotten to see that the fair sized bathroom carries the same elegance, except the rug, obviously, being replaced with purple & white tiles. I haven't gotten to use the supposedly luxurious shower yet, but I'm going to make sure that changes. It looks like one of those amazing ones you see in the movies where it has many different features. Also, the hotel room has it's own fridge filled with all sorts of Heavenly snacks & drinks. Basically, the place is off the charts cool.

I fall onto my back on the king sized bed, closing my eyes at the feel of the soft blanket that matches the carpet exactly. It feels like cotton candy.

Feeling eyes on me, I peek an eye open to see Hunter watching me, wearing a smile on his face.

"This hotel is awesome," I grin, taking the time to look up at the beautiful chandelier dangling from the ceiling. It must has at least 20 tiny light bulbs on it.

"Yeah it is," he says before laying beside me. His finger runs over the engagement ring as he looks at it, before me. "Do you like it?"

"I love it. You didn't spend too much on it, did you?" I ask, looking down at it. It looks more than I'm worth, the diamond being about 1 carat & then surrounded by tiny ones embedded into the silver band. It's truly beautiful.

"Forget the price. You're worth every cent," he says, kissing the side of my forehead.

"You sure?" I ask, uncertain. Like I said, it's beautiful, & I'm certain he spent more than he should on it. Meanwhile I'm just.. me. I'm not worth that kind of money or trouble.

"More than anything." I lean my head into his shoulder, letting everything sink in. It all feels like a dream, finally being with Hunter & planning on getting married. I just hope no one throws a bucket of cold water to wake me up.

"Well, this news will probably wipe out the Florida drama." He chuckles, nodding his head in agreement.

"I'm ok with that. I want the world to know that I'm marrying the most incredible girl." My cheeks heat up as I bite my lip softly.

"Thought you were marrying me?" I muse, looking up at him through my eyelashes with a cheeky grin.

"Ha ha, funny." He raises an eyebrow, before a smirk slowly forms. Ignoring the feeling I should be running away right now, I stay put & put up a confident front.

"..what?.." Next thing I know he's tickling the heck out of me, his fingers feeling like a birds' feathers. Unable to stop giggling, my legs fly out in what feels like every direction. "S-stop!" I yell through my fits of laughter. Through squinted eyes, I see him smiling deviously.
