My Paradise

Ch.31

Fast forward to night before wedding.

Skylar's POV
I can't believe I'm getting married tomorrow. I never thought would get married period. After the whole Jayden and Macy thing I kinda gave up on love. But Marcus is different. In a good way. It's not everyday you find the love of your life. I decide to have all the girls at my parents' house. The idea worked so well with Star's wedding I decide to do the same. I had my mom, Star, Jennifer, my cousins Misha and Danielle, my mom's sister Kenya, my niece Josie(Luna's daughter.), and my step sister Rosanna. Yes I have a step sister. She's my dad's other daughter. But we actually like each other. Her mom died in a violent car crash. After that my dad met my mom and had Luna, me, Rashaad, Damien, and Tristen. She was already in college when they had me and Rashaad. "Who's that blonde talking to your mom?" Star asked me. "Oh that's right. I never told you about Rosanna. She's my step sister. My dad had her before he met my mom. She's really nice." We walked over. "Hey Rosanna, I wanna introduce you to my best friend Star Delrosa-Dunningham." They shook hands. "It's a pleasure to meet you!" Rosanna said. "Nice to meet you too. Your accent, where are you from?" "My mom was Dutch. Guess I got my accent from her." She joked. We all giggled. "I heard that you got married in February." "Yeah. My hubby is over at Sky's house with the boys." "I bet they're have a crazy night." Me and Star looked at each other. "I wouldn't hold your breath. I bet you that they are playing video games and eating all my food." I said shaking my head. "Really?" "Yep. Sure they love to party, but they love food and my PS4 even more." Rosanna nodded. We talked for awhile until my mom called me into her room. "You wanted to see me ma?" "I just want to talk to you." "That's fine." "Are you excited for tomorrow?" "Ma that's a dumb question. Of course I am." "But it's not just tomorrow. It's the rest of your life. For the rest of your life you'll wake up to Marcus's face. For the rest of your life you have to deal with his craziness. Are you ready for that?" "I've been doing that for the past 2 years. I think I can handle it." "And what about this baby or babies?" "Mom. This doesn't feel like a talk. It feels like your trying to talk me out of it. And I'm not backing out." "Sweetheart I would never talk you out of anything. I just want you to be ready for this." "Well I am. You don't need to worry about." "I'm your mother. I'm always gonna worry about anything that concerns you. After Luna..." "MOM IM NOT LUNA!!" I started yelling. "You gotta relax. I understand that I'm your last daughter but trust me. Marcus wouldn't do anything to harm me. If anything he would do everything in his power to keep all harm away from me and my future family. So if you could just back off and let me handle my life, that would be great." She didn't say anything after. I walked over to her and hugged her. "Ma. You know I will always need you right?" She nodded. "And that whenever I need it I will come for you help and advice. Okay?" She nodded. She gave me a big hug and we walked back downstairs. Everyone was staring at us. "Are you guys okay!" Jennifer asked us. I looked at my mom. "Yeah we're okay. Just a little mishap. But I promise everything is fine now." My mom said. Everyone nodded and went back to what they were doing." Star had came over to me. "Are you sure everything is okay with you and your mom?" "Yes Star. She was just nervous about my future. That's all." She shrugged. We went into the kitchen and grabbed graham crackers, giant mallows, and a huge bucket full of king size chocolate bars and met everyone outside. We set up a sheet on the tree and gave blankets and pillows to everyone. We were having an outdoor movie party. The fire pit was in the middle so everyone had easy access to it. We decide to watch Terminator Genesis. My mom was a little skeptical about. "You want to watch an action movie the day before your wedding? What if we watch the Notebook or The Fault In Our Stars?" I gave her a glare. "When in my entire have I ever willing watched one of those types of movies?" I asked rhetorically. She didn't answer. "Exactly. Never. And I'm not about to start now." Everyone was bundled up in pairs. I was with Star. My mom was with Rosanna. Danielle and Misha were together. Even if I wanted to separate them I couldn't. They never leave each other's side. It's creepy sometimes. And Kenya was with Joise. Kenya adopted Joise shortly after Luna's funeral. My mom would've kept her but we didn't have any room. I had two s'mores. I tried to sneak another but Star slapped my hand. "Ow!" "You have to fit into your dress remember?" She said in a naggy tone. "Ugh." Just looking out for my bestie." She said satisfied with herself. We watched the movie. Halfway through I looked around and almost everyone was sleep. Misha and Dani were laying on top of each other. Kenya and Joise were snoring. Jennifer was trying to fight her sleep but I think the sleep was winning because she looked like she would drop any minute. I knew my mom was sleep. She's a weakling. Star was the only one besides me still awake. "I'll be right back." I told her. "Okay. And if you text Marcus I will cut your fingers off one by one slowly and painfully." "Okay Miss torture pants." "I'm serious." "No doubt." I wine inside and put up the food. They went through 22 boxes of graham crackers, about a half dozen chocolate bars and 45 bags of mallows. And I thought I eat a lot. I threw away all the trash. I looked over to my phone. Michael had posted 6 pictures. I opened my phone to see them. The first one was Marcus and Lucas covered in whip cream. The caption said they went a little overboard! The next one was a video of them sliding down the stairs on pillows. I shook my head. I bet my house looks like a college party. Why couldn't they go to a strip club like normal people. Then I realized that no one there is normal. The rest were pranks like drawing of each other faces while they were sleep. But the last one got me. It was a picture of Marcus sleeping with a stuffed bear he named Sky. I guess he told Michael because the caption said he misses his teddy bear 🐻 and tagged me in it. I smiled. The star jumped on me. "I thought I said no texting?!" "I wasn't. I was scrolling through Instagram. Now get off of me!" She jumped down. "It still counts." "No it doesn't. Anyway why aren't you sleep. It's like 2 in the morning. And it isn't even your wedding." "I know but I can't sleep." "Are you an insomniac?" "Really bitch? No I ain't no damn insomniac!" "Okay, I was just asking." "Your one to talk. Why are you awake? I get it's your wedding and all but you never stay up this late. Sleep is to precious to give up were your exact words." "Thank you Polly the parrot," I said mockingly. "I'm just excited that's all." She looked at me. "What?" "You don't seem very excited." "Unlike you I don't jump around and wake up my friends at 2 in the morning." "Are you gonna let that go?" "Nope." "Thought so." We walked back outside and finished the movie. By the time it was done it was like 3:30. Neither one of us fell asleep. "We still have some hours to kill. What do you wanna do?" "I don't know. We could just chill and watch some YouTube videos." "You mean Lucas and Marcus's YouTube videos." "What? You said I could text him, so I'm not. And plus they're funny." "That's true. But which one? You've watched all of them at least several thousand times." "Okay first that's not true." "So how many times have you watched it?" I sat there counting in my head. How many times have I watched their videos? "Exactly my point." "Well you choose one then." She scrolled through their page and picked the 'Dirty Never Have I Ever' (up top for those who haven't seen it) . "Really Star?" "What? Let's see what he has or hasn't done." "It's not even that dirty." "Then it should be no problem." "But as you stated before, I've seen this already." "Well maybe you missed something." "I highly doubt it but okay." We were watching when it got to the part where it asked have you ever went skinny dipping. Star's eyes lit up. "Oooo! Honeymoon idea!" "Shut up!" I shoved her. When the video finished she looked up at me. "It wasn't that dirty." "That's what I said. You never listen to me." She smiled. After awhile we nodded off. We fell asleep on the couch. I didn't seem like long before my mom came in a woke me up. "Sky get up you lazy bum!" I finally woke up. "What time is it?" "Noon. Time to start getting ready. We have to be at the beach by 5:00." "I know Ma. I did plan most of my wedding." "Then get up!" She threw a pillow in my face. I scoffed. I tried to get up but there was a 120lbs person on me. "Star get up." She moaned. "Star get up!" She moaned again. "STAR GET THE HELL UP!" I yelled in her ear. "Okay I'm up. No need for yelling!" She screamed back. She rolled off of me but she rolled to far and fell off the couch. I couldn't help but laugh. She got angry and grabbed my ankle and yanked me onto the floor. "Ow!" I yelped. Star started laughing. We then started play wrestling on the floor. "Skylar Miller! If you don't get off that floor and into a shower I'm gonna kill you!" My mom yelled. Even though technically I didn't have to listen to her, she still scared me so much that I do what she says anyway. I ran upstairs I hopped in the shower. I started singing because what kind of crazy person doesn't sing in the shower? I got out and Star was sitting on my bed. "I didn't know you could sing?" "I can't." She then pressed a button on her phone and it started playing. It was me singing. "If this is you not being able to sing then I would love to hear you being able to." She said. I scoffed. "Would you shut up and give me my robe. I went downstairs and sat on the counter. Misha and Danielle were gonna do my hair and makeup. They own a chain of salons along the east coast. They each did one part. Danielle did my makeup and Misha did my hair. I looked in the mirror when they finished. I was in awe. I think Danielle saw my face too. "If you start crying I will kill you!" She said. I held back the tears. I stood up from the stool and walked into my moms room. She kept my dress in her closet. When I opened the dress bag I smiled. I couldn't wait for Marcus to see.

Marcus's POV
The guys and I have been up for hours. We went to sleep early because we had too much ice cream. It was good ice cream. Lucas kept rambling on about dumb crap. After awhile his words started meshing together. "Lucas! Shut up or talk slower!" Christian said. (Christian Delgrosso). Lucas looked up. "Why are you rambling? It's not your wedding day." I pointed out. A big grin came across his face. "I'm just excited that my little twin brother is getting married. To be honest I'm a little jealous." I rolled my eyes. "Yeah right Lucas! I can't picture you tied down to someone. Your to much of a freak." He rolled his eyes. Everyone knew it was true though. Lucas is a freak and likes freaky girls. Jake and I started laughing at him. He chuckled a little. "No, but I am really for you bro." "Thanks Lucas. You don't know how much that means to me." He pulled me into a bear hug. Jake and Christian came over and broke us up. "If you two ever get that mushy again, I will break both of your necks." Jake said. We knew his was bluffing but he would do something. I walked into the bathroom to fix my hair. "Leave it messy. Sky likes it like that." Jake said. "And how would you know this?" I asked. "Bruh... she told me." He said nonchalantly. I ignored the comment. I decide to leave it messy because knowing Jake he's probably right anyway. Plus I like it that way to. I look d over at the clockwork. "T-minus 45 minutes til we need to leave." Cyrus yelled. I kept thinking to myself. "45 minutes til I get to spend the rest of my life with Sky!" I really was excited but nervous. "Dude you don't look so good. What's wrong?" Dari asked me. "I'm just nervous. What if everything changed after this?" "It is gonna change. All depends on if you wanna make change for better or for worse." "I want to change for the better but what is Sky doesn't..." "if you keep asking yourself what if your gonna miss out on so many life opportunities. Just relax bro. You and Sky have been through a lot. I doubt there's anything left in the known universe that could tear you guys apart." I smiled. The pros about having older siblings is that when your feeling iffy about something they can ease you over. Bad thing is they give you noogies after they do it. "Dari quit it! I just fixed my hair!" "Well now I'm unfixing it. As payment for the hella good advice I just gave you." Cyrus busted through the door. He didn't look too pleased. "If you don't stop playing around! We have too go!" We nodded and he left. "He does realized this is my wedding right?" I asked. Dari chuckled. Cyrus always likes to be on time. Even if it's not for him. Well I should go before he comes back and drags me there by my neck.
