The Merger (BWWM - Book #1 / Complete)

Chapter 16 - Let's Do This

Layla's POV

Travel day for the wedding.

"Ryan Alexander Meyers, put me down!!!!"

"Layla Danielle Jordan-Meyers, no I will not put you down. Oh, looks like we just made it to the couch."

"I'm not going to hyphenate my name. It will be just Mrs. Layla Meyers. I love it already. I always vowed I would never do that. I will forever cherish my maiden name. But, being married is a new journey in my life. So, new journey comes with a new name." I laid my head on his chest so I could hear his heartbeat before he placed me down on the couch. He then proceeds to sit on me and start tickling me. "Now, are you willingly going to put on the blindfold?"

I couldn't take no more tickling because my stomach was hurting. "Okay! Yes, I will." My neck started hurting. "Ouch."

"Good girl. Layla, is your neck bothering you?"

He got off me and I sat up. "Yes it does. It feels like I am being stabbed."

"Listen, we can postpone our wedding night."

"No way! No way! No way! We have postponed it several times already. No more postponing. If we really had time, we could have had a wedding night rehearsal right now. But, I hear the door being opened. So, Sean is hear and we need to go."

He was disappointed because once we land, we won't see each other until Saturday evening. That is when I will become Mrs. Layla Meyers.

Ryan's POV

While on the way to the airport, I thought that I would never find a woman to not only be the love of my life but marry me and be my wife in the span of 4 months. But, I have. I can't wait to see Layla tomorrow, walking down the aisle in her wedding dress. She is going to be surprised when she sees her father there to walk her down the aisle.

My parents, Layla's parents, Cris, Kam, Día, Rocco, Marco, Noeli, Braelyn and Austin will be there too. That one I am still surprised about. My brother and sister are coming too.

The flight to Jamaica was 3 hours and 37 minutes. A big thank you to Mr. Toscano, he let us fly in his family's private jet. Layla kept bugging Sean about where we were going. He didn't say one word. She didn't even know where he was sitting. "Layla, I am going to take the blindfold off because you can't tell where we are going while in the air. And, I want to see your beautiful, brown eyes." When I took them off, Layla had fallen asleep. "Well, so much for making out." I grabbed a blanket and placed it over her. I talked with Cris a bit on the phone. He wants to surprise Kam tomorrow as well. They were married on the same date. And their honeymoon was interrupted, thanks to that piece of crap, Chase.

Time flew by fast because the flight attendant came by and told us we were about to land. "Layla love, I have to put the blindfold back on you and I will take it off once we walk off the plane."

She was still tired but said yes. 15 minutes later, we arrived at our destination. "Are you going to tell me now?"

"Nope. You will know once I take your blindfold off." She started pouting again. "Hmm, looks like tickle therapy is needed again."

"Sean! Little help here."

He couldn't help but laugh. "Sorry Layla, you are on your own this time."

"Geez, thanks a lot."

"Come on, give me your hand and we can get off the plane." She stuck her hand out, I grabbed it, and we got off the plane. Once we stepped off the plane, I took off her blindfold.
