"Are you ready?" I heard Grayson shout through the house.
"Yeah, I'll be outside in a minute!" I put the rest of my things in my suitcase and closed it up. I wheeled it outside to find Grayson resting on the side of the car. He took my suitcase for me and I hopped in the car. It's crazy to think that tomorrow is the day. We are getting married ... tomorrow.
Grayson started the car and as he turned to reverse out of the driveway, we noticed my anxious face.
"You okay babe?" He said.
"Yeah, I'm just really worried about tomorrow. Like what if something goes wrong? Or like, I mess something up. It's going to be—" He placed his hand on my thigh.
"Babe. Everything is going to be fine. We've had two practice runs and everything was perfect. Don't worry about it, just think about the exciting things that are going to happening - like us becoming husband and wife?" He took his hand off my thigh and concentrated on the road. I just nodded and smiled as I watched us pass the trees on the side of the road. This is what I love about him, he's so caring and gentle, and he knows how to calm me down when I'm feeling a little panicky.
"I love you." I whispered as I turned my head so I could face him.
"I love you too." He said, turning his head for a second, giving me a cute smile before turning back to the road.
We soon pulled up outside of my hotel. We have both booked separate ones so Grayson doesn't see me in my dress in the morning.
We both got out of the car and Grayson handed me my suitcase before pulling me into a kiss. He wrapped his arms around me waist and lifted my chin a little.
"I'm going to miss you." He said.
"Me too, but I'll see you tomorrow, and I'll text you later before I go to bed." I said reassuring him.
"Make sure Emma takes good care of you, okay." I nodded my head before giving him a quick hug, and then letting go. I walked to the reception doors, turning around to give him a little wave before entering. His car soon drove off and I walked up to the desk.
"Hannah Raine, please" I said to the lady at the desk.
"Ah yes! Please follow me." She said gesturing me over to the lift. "So, take this lift to level 6, and it's room 203." She gave me the keys and then I thanked her before pressing the up arrow and entering the lift.
I soon reached level 6 and turned right to try and find my room. I suddenly came to a halt as I saw a door that had 203 written on it. I took a deep breath and walked in. It was beautiful, and Grayson had done an amazing job! We both booked each other's hotel room, as we thought it would be fun to see what we would pick out for each other. This is what I got;

It was absolutely stunning.
Two hours have passed, and I've managed to unpack everything I have and jam out to some old throwback songs. Now, I'm just sat on my laptop binge watching some old Dolan Twins videos to keep my company.
I suddenly heard a knock on the door, so I closed my laptop and walked over to the door. I slowly opened it not expecting anyone to be here until the morning.
"SUPRISE!"
"EMMMMAAAA!!!"
I brought her into a massive hug, although being careful not to squish the little fella inside of her.
"What are you doing here?" I asked.
"I booked a hotel room for tonight. Seen as Ethan has gone to surprise Grayson tonight, I thought it was only fair to surprise you too. Also, it's not right for you two to be alone tonight either!" She said rubbing her belly every now and again.
"Okay, but only if you're sure." She nodded and welcomed herself in.
"Wow, this is stunning! He really did well, didn't he?" Emma said as she waddled over to the bed and sat down.
"Yeah, he did." I could just tell I had a missive smile on my face already. "Are you sure you're going to be okay for tomorrow? I mean you're nearly 9 months." Emma just frowned and then looked back at me.
"Of course! The least it is doing is moving around in my stomach. I'm not due for another 2 weeks yet." I just nodded my head and sat down next her, placing my hand on her stomach.
"Me and Grayson have decided to move our honeymoon. We'll be leaving 2 weeks after your due date to make sure that we're here when the baby comes along."
We had a long discussion where Emma was trying to persuade me to go when we originally planned to, but the doctor said it's due to come a week early so we didn't want to risk it.
"Are you sure you're okay Emma?" I began to get really worried as she led back slightly on the bed, closing her eyes and rubbing her belly.
"Yeah, it's just kicking me. Want to feel?" I nodded and she placed my hand over where the baby was kicking. No wonder she's in so much pain, it's kicking really hard. I honestly think it's going to be a boy, but I guess we won't find out until he or she is born, as they want to keep the gender a surprise.
"You need to go and get some rest." I signalled Emma out, insisting she went to bed and came back in the morning. She just agreed and stood up. I watched her waddle out of the door and down the hallway to her room.
