Once I was dressed, I headed out for the coffee shop, well here gose nothing I thought as I walked in, I looked around the shop and spotted him in the back the corner. Well here gose nothing I said myself, I walked over to the table, once I he noticed me he got up and pulled the chair out for me. "Hi" I said once we were both seated. "Hello Araceli" he said. "So you wanted to talk" I answered him. "Yes it would seem that we have some unfinished business" he said. "So what is it Leonardo, why now, why after all this time" I said. "Really Araceli, is that how it's gonna be, I remember right, it was you that up and left , but why though?? I want to know why you didn't fight for us" he asked. "Because Leonardo your making it seem that you were in love with me at the time, I always thought that my feelings were one sided, and then when things started to go down hill from my sister and your brother, it was all a big mess, and the messed up thing about this is that I was finally going to tell you how I felt about you" I told him. "But why not go for it, it seems to me that you were and still afraid of the outcome, you see you always did what you were told, you never once broke the rules, you were and still are in your sister's shadows" he said. "Were are you going with this Leonardo" I asked. "I don't know it all seems a little weird dont you think, why come back now when my brother is to be married....unless Valeria's planning something big, by the look on your face I may be right, and if that's the case then she's wasting her time, if I correct, your sister was the one who walked out on my brother and made him the heartless man he is" he said. "So what are you trying to say Leonardo, that the girl your brother marrying, changed him into the guy he was before he met my sister" I asked. "I've already said to much, but I know you won't tell your sister or anyone else, what we talked about, now back to you and me, there's no denying that there's still something there between us, so was we get back to Italy, we will see were it goes" he said while getting up, oh and what color are you wearing for the gala" he asked. "Gold" I replied and with that he came over and gave me a quick kiss and left...

Alexandra's p.o.v:
The gala was two days away, to say I was nervous was an understatement!!! The pressure was huge, I still hadn't found the dress, much less one for the gala. I was running out of time, I was in some fancy dress shop with Nina. I had no idea what I was looking for, gosh I didn't even know the theme of my own wedding!!! I felt very lost at the moment, what was I going to do!! This whole thing with Valeria had me all types of messed up, and plus there was no way to tell Raymond about this, I still don't know how he'll act. A part of me is scared that he'll take her side and not mine. I had to figure things out fast, what do I do!!! "Alexandra is everything okay" asked Nina. "Well there's something I've been meaning to tell you" I said. "What is it"? She asked. "Valeria the day we got here, she was waiting for me inside, and told me to stay away from Raymond and what not, Nina I dont think it's a good idea for me to go to this gala" I told her. "Well now you have to, we have to keep her from finding out who you really are" she said. "Then what do we do" I asked her. "The side doors, we'll use the side doors, to make sure no one sees you with my brother" she said. "But dont you think your brother will know something is wrong" I told her. "Dont worry we will figure it out, now let's go find the prefect dresses" she said while pulling me to the next rows of dresses. After a few hours of going store to store we found the prefect dresses and everything that goes with them.

*TIME AKIP DAY OF THE MASQUERADE GALA*
It was finally the day of the gala, and I couldn't be more nervous, something big was going to happen I couldnt feel it. The past two days have been hectic, of course I had a full blown meltdown because even though I found a dress for the gala, I couldnt find a wedding dress, that I loved, it was for my big day, so it had to be prefect!! After trying a bunch of dresses I felt hopeless!! Which resulted in me crying me eyes out in the dressing room. Which lead to Nina having to call Raymond and saying that his bride to be wouldn't come out and something about making myself sick. Once he got there he found me on the floor in a white dress, crying. He asked what was wrong, in which I replied with, not being able to find the dress that I've dreamed of. He hugged me and told me we still had time and once we got home I could look around until I found the dress that lives up to my expectations. I hugged him back and after a quick kiss, I changed back into my clothes and we left back to our hotels. I was knocked back into reality when Nina came and told me we had to start getting ready for the gala. I was anxious to see how tonight was going to go, but there was no going back, Valeria made sure yesterday that I was to be there, she even asked if Raymond would be her date, but he politely declined and told her that I was going with him. Me and Nina got our nails and hair done we back to her hotel room and finished getting, when we were done we went down stairs to meet the boys.

Sorry for the long wait....
