Alfie's POV

"Two Grandma?"

"Check"

"Two Grandad?"

"Yup"

"One Uncle?"

"In the box"

"One Auntie?"

"Got it"

"The photos?"

"Yeah, got them"

"How many?"

"All 10."

"Okay we're ready then" Zoe grinned at me, fluffing the pillows up on the garden chairs once more.

"This place looks amazing." I kissed her forehead, cuddling her closer.

"We did a good job" she agreed.

We'd set up the garden into a tumblrfied, pintrest-perfect place. There were blankets note floor, fairy light covered dens made out of bed sheets and tripod stands, coffee tables filled with plates of cute finger food in each one, and the fairy light lit decking and garden chairs intermixed with all of the cute little loft-style extras made the place look perfect, like something out of a kids fairy tale book.

"What time should people start arriving?" I asked Zoe, putting the box full of items behind a pile of blankets to hide it for the time being.

"Anytime now really. Come on, let's go to the front and bring them round."

All of our friends and family began piling into our garden, talking, drinking, laughing and loving the set up of it all.

We'd got everyone together on a last minute whim, so many dates having to be out aside or changed due to everyone's busy schedules, but this evening had just worked itself out perfectly.

All the people we loved, all the people we needed to know, all in one place at one time.

It couldn't feel more perfect.

. . . .

After a few hours of socialising and catching up, music playing in the background and the summer air keeping us warm, Zoe and I met at the tip of the garden and began to shush the crowd.

"Guys!" I shouted, a few people turning I look at me.

"Hey!" a few more turned my way.

"LISTEN!" I shouted, grabbing the full attention of everyone in the garden. I cleared my throat awkwardly and stepped towards Zoe who laughed softly at my predicament.
