Celine's P.O.V

~Flashback~

I hold the doorknob, and at the same time I feel someone's hand on me. I turn my head to look at whose hands it belongs to.

And my gaze immediately meet a pair of beautiful transparent blue eyes, that always freeze me right on the spot.

"Pierre..." I whisper slowly, as I look at him with the same expression on his face. Both surprised and frozen.

"Celine."

I let go my hand and he does the same as well, the situation is getting pretty awkward, and a conversation seems to be unnecessary, but it still happen anyway.

"What are you doing here ?" I ask him as I cross my arms out of reflex, for some reason I always do that whenever I feel protective of myself.

"My step sister owns this place, so I'm just visiting her"

Step sister ?

"Well, shall we get in ?"

He opens the door and moves his hand signaling for me to get in first, I do as told and enters the building. He follows me from behind and stands beside me.

I look around the area, everything is silver themed, giving a really royal like vibe, and everything is arranged so beautifully, from the luxurious decoration to the little details like choice of flowers on the silver case, everything just screams fancy vibe.

"Well, are you looking for a wedding dress ? I didn't hear that you are getting married, though"

I look at him with an annoyed expression, this guy is really...

"It's for my sister" I reply shortly as one of the helper there approach us and greets Pierre and I, it seems like she is already familiar with Pierre, or maybe he just visits this place oftentimes, but she asks us what we are looking for,and I tell her that I am looking for a perfect wedding gown for my sister.

The helper nods and she leads me, umm, us to one particular room, which seems to be provided for one couple and the family only, so the whole deciding process doesn't have to be seen by other people, which is convenient for me, and it's filled with lots of different wedding gowns and other kind of gowns all arranged beautifully in what seems like attached closets, there is a big sofa on the sides with a large wall mirror, and there is a dressing room right beside

"What size is your sister ?"

"Same size as me, but a few cm larger on the hips and bust"

"Understood" The helper searches through the closet around for a little bit before she pulls out a backless silver mermaid gown with frills on the bottom and lining around the chest area.

"What about this one ?"

I shake my head, as the dress is a little bit too simple for Agata's taste.
