Back To You (Sebastian Vettel)

Chapter 63: One More Day

Seb and his big family had arrived in Vienna on Thursday, two days before the wedding day. He reserved some rooms for his family, Britta, and Antti at The Harmonie, which was only two minutes from Liechtenstein Garden Palace.

Seb himself stayed there as well, sharing the room with Fabian for two nights before he started staying at his own house with his wife-to-be the night after their wedding.

On Friday, Seb with his parents and Fabian went to his house. They made sure that everything in the house was clean and tidy. After that, they gathered at the living room.

"How are you feeling today, Seb?" Heike who sat next to him asked.

"Quite nervous, but I'm obviously ready for tomorrow," he smiled at his mother. "It still feels like a dream that I can finally marry her."

She put her hand on his thigh. "It's not a dream, Seb. She is going to be your wife tomorrow."

"Yes, you're right, mom."

"I've considered Gia as my sister since the first time I knew her. And now, she's really gonna be my sister-in-law. I'm so happy for both of you, Seb," Fabian told.

"Thanks, Fabian! I can see that you two get along very well. She's also considered you as her little brother. You are also very close to Leonard already."

Fabian laughed a little. "Leon is a smart boy! He's quite talkative, I admit, but I do like him. I love to play with him."

Then, Seb wanted to thank his family who had supported him on everything. "Mom, dad, Fabian, I want to thank you all for the support that I always need. Thanks for encouraging me to talk to Gia when I still wasn't confident to do so. Thanks for accepting my decision to break up with Bernadette as I feel that she isn't the one I'm searching for. And most importantly, thanks for approving my relationship with Gia."

It was Norbert's turn to speak. "Seb, we all know since the beginning that you love her. There's no point for us to not supporting your relationship with her. As your family, your mom, Fabian, and I just want nothing but the best for your life. We want you to be happy."

"And we know that you really love her, Seb. She is your first love, and we believe that she is going to be your last one," Heike added.

"Thanks, mom, dad. If only I hadn't done that mistake... maybe we'd got married since years ago and we'd given you a grandchild," Seb recalled the mistake he did.

"Everything happens for a reason, Seb. Gia and her family have understood the reason you left her and they've forgiven you. No need to think back about that. In the end, you will still get married to her," Norbert replied.

"Yes, dad."

"By the way, will Bernadette come?" Heike asked.

Seb nodded at her. "She will. She has texted me that she will arrive tonight with her boyfriend. You don't mind with her presence, do you?"

"Of course we don't, Seb. Even after what she did to you, we still want to have a good relationship with her. Why do you suddenly ask me that?"

"I remember when she came to the German GP race, she said that she wouldn't mind if Gia and I didn't invite her because she was afraid if you, dad, and Fabian wouldn't like to see her on our wedding."

"We don't hate her, Seb, I'm sure that you know it. We will always welcome her whenever she comes."

"Thanks mom if you think so." Then, Seb felt the need to hear his future wife's voice, a day before their wedding. "Mom, dad, Fabian, I want to go to my room now. I want to call Gia."
