Chapter 21

Team 10 House
1 day before the wedding
7:30 AM

Narrator: It was bright and early and the alarm went off. Jake and Erika woke up and started to get ready for their workout. After about 15 minutes they were on their way to meet their trainer. This had become a regular morning routine for them since they announced their engagement.

Jake: I hope you know on our honeymoon I get to eat whatever I want and you can't stop me.
Erika: I wouldn't dare come in between you and food, you have been cranky too much!
Jake: Because I'm eating healthy only. Don't you know about them gains
Erika: Shut your mouth babe
Jake: Fine, at least we're here I can release some tension
Erika: HA funny

Narrator: They spent almost 2 hours working out and it was finally time for them to leave.
Today their day was filled with last minute check ins on all wedding arrangements. But before that they stopped to get smoothies, Jake wanted to enjoy something before they would have to get home to the madness at the house.

It was getting close to noon and Erika had packed her belongings and her wedding dress. Since they wanted to avoid seeing each other they day of the wedding Erika would be staying at the mansion with the girls.
Jake was handling all the big stuff with Leslie who was the wedding planner.
The guest list was small but the panning for the party ended up being extravagant. Jake wanted ice sculptures, a giant cake, photo booth, DJ, games, and so much more.
Everything was going great but everyone needed to get ready for the rehearsal dinner. The dress code was all white and it would be the last time Jake would see his girl until the big day.

Jake got ready and so did the boys since they would be going together. He couldn't decide who would be his best man so he chose his brother Logan. Tony, Chance and Kade would be his groomsmen.

They made it to 1OAK in Hollywood where they would be celebrating. All the guests attending were there. Happiness and love from everyone filled the room, nothing could ruin it.

Erika was finally done getting ready and all her bridesmaids as well. They had a chauffeur waiting for them out front and made it to the spot about 45 minutes later. Erika was first to get out of the car and by this time paparazzi had doubled. Everyone wanted to get the exclusive shots first, Jake and Erika's wedding were making headlines. She stepped out and made her way inside but she froze when she saw a familiar face. She shook her head and tried to ignore it, her mind was probably messing with her since she was feeling a little nervous for tomorrow.

All eyes were on her when she walked in. Jake turned around and smiled at his gorgeous soon to be wife. He walked towards her and gave her a kiss on the cheek. They went around and made sure to socialize with everyone.

Eventually Erika was able to pull Jake aside, she really needed to talk to him to calm her nerves.

Jake: Are you alright babe?
Erika: I think I'm just nervous for tomorrow, my mind is playing games
Jake: Don't be, just breathe in when you need to calm your nerves
Erika: I think I'm going crazy
Jake: Why do you say that?
Erika: When I was walking I swear I saw her, she was watching me
Jake: who?!
Erika: Alissa
Jake: Are you sure?
Erika: Idk, I froze when I saw her. Just seeing her gave me more anxiety
Jake: Ok well let's move on from that babe, look at only the positive. Tomorrow you officially become Mrs. Paul
Erika: You're so cute
Jake: I love you
Erika: I love you too
Jake&Erika: And I cant wait to say I do
Erika: We should go back to our guest
Jake: yeah let's go

Narrator: They kissed and went back to the party. A few hours later it was time to say goodbye. Jake and Erika hugged and kissed one last time.

Jake: I'll see you at the altar *winks*
Erika: I'll be the one in white *smirks*

Narrator: Jake made sure Erika and the girls got in the car safely. As he watched he noticed a blonde girl with a familiar face. At that moment he knew Erika was right. It was Alissa.

Anger took over and he immediately went after her. She finally turned around to face him.

Jake: What the fuck are you doing here!
Alissa: I heard you're getting married to her, I didn't believe it but I wanted to see if the rumors were true
Jake: Yes I am getting married, I don't see how that's any of your business or concern.
Alissa: Maybe because I still care about you
Jake: Cut the bullshit
Alissa: She's not right for you and you know it
Jake: You're ridiculous. She has been there for me. She's always had my back through all the ups and downs. I love her more than anyone could imagine.
Alissa: Do you love her more than you loved me?
Jake: I never loved you. I thought I did but I realized that was never love. That was a toxic relationship. Based off lies and infidelities.
Alissa: I don't believe you, just come with me and call off this whole thing. I want you back
Jake: NO! I want you to listen to me right now because I'm only going to say this once. Leave me the fuck alone and stay out of my life. And stay away from my wife!

Narrator: After his outburst he walked back over to the boys. Alissa really didn't care about him or what he had to say. She really just wanted to ruin Erika's night. Now she definitely wanted to help Christian, it wasn't about the money anymore. It was more about revenge.
