Although I knew that some guys didn’t like planning weddings or planning anything for that matter, he should have paid more attention to what I was saying. This wasn’t just my wedding it was our wedding. The pressure from the fact that the wedding was only around a week’s time away made me stressed out enough already without the need to add on more frustration from the fact that I had to deal with Hayden as well. The worst part was that he didn’t seem to care and that hurt me more than anything. I sat down on the sofa and closed my eyes as I concentrated on breathing in deeply and slowly. Although I tried to control my thoughts, I couldn’t stop it from wandering to the two conditions that Hayden had presented to the boss. He was clearly buying time, and I couldn’t help thinking that perhaps everything that he was doing, he was just doing it to buy some more time. Everything including our upcoming wedding. What if he’s just marrying me to buy some more time? That shouldn’t be the cas
Soon after Auntie left, and I was left alone with my thoughts once again. Despite what I said to reassure Auntie, I had no intention to talk to Hayden about anything. If he didn’t want to get involved, then I wouldn’t force him. I looked down at the business card that Auntie had given to me as I made up my mind to just leave everything to the organizers. I wasn’t a picky person and if Hayden didn’t want to have a say in anything, then I might as well just completely outsource my problems. The organizer can help pick my wedding dress as well for all that I cared. The only request is for it to have no lace or laces that doesn’t make my skin itch when I start to sweat. With that decided, I put the business card away with the intention to call the woman first thing early tomorrow morning. Suddenly, the door to my living room opened with a loud bang. No knocking before entering. It’s got to be Hayden and no one else. “Why didn’t you come eat dinner?” he asked as he came to stand right i
“I know that you probably don’t like doing any of this but…I want to have a wedding that you would like too. After all, it is our wedding not just my wedding, you know…” I confessed truthfully although Hayden might think that my worries are all just nonsense. “I understand but I did mean it when I said that I’ll be happy with whatever that you choose. Honestly, I don’t really have any preferences,” Hayden replied matter-of-factly. What he said made sense and it was also logical. I knew that I was probably being too emotional about this but…“And I’ll be happy with whatever you choose too. So…can we at least choose some things together?” I suggested hopefully. I probably sounded so desperate right now, but it would mean so much to me if he would give me his opinion. “…Fine. I’ll help you pick out your wedding dress and everything to do with your outfit. The rest, I would prefer if you worked it out with the organizer. If you feel lost, just let them pick and I’ll pay for it,” Hayde
“Oh, sure. Let me know if you need any assistance,” the shop manager replied to me with a polite smile.After the manager and the other staff took their leave, I turned to face Hayden once more. Maybe if we talked, I could get his view on what he was looking for or if there were any issues that he could see. “Umm…guess you didn’t like any of the dresses? Is there something that you have in mind?” I asked softly as I stood in front of him.Hayden looked up at me and his eyes were a little cold and emotionless. “Which dress do you like?” he asked.Well, they all looked fine except for a few that were too heavy and too extravagant for my tastes but all in all any of them would work fine for me. “I think they’re all fine. They’re all beautiful so…” I replied softly. “Exactly. They all look decently the same. You’re the one who will be wearing the dress and even you don’t have a preference. How do you expect me to have a preference?” Hayden asked rhetorically. Maybe he was right…“Wel
“We’re not so sure what we have in mind to be honest,” I said apologetically. “That’s completely ok. You might not believe it but many of our clients come in feeling the same way and that is precisely why we are here to help you out. I assume that you’ve seen our portfolio and based on that something must have caught you eye or attention which led you to choose to work with us, right?” Lucy said with a knowing smile.“I guess…” I mumbled, although I wasn’t sure what it was in their portfolio that caught my eye in the first place. Lucy just nodded as she took out a large hardcover booklet before she opened it and slid it over the table towards Hayden and me. I could see that there were photos from the various other weddings that the company had organized before. “As you can see from the various wedding photos here, we specialize in a more fairytale type of vibe and the key factor is the usage of smoke from dry ice and lighting to create the right atmosphere during the entire ceremon
After the waiter took our orders, we were left alone again, and I couldn’t keep myself from smiling like a fool. “It’s been a while since we came out for dinner like this,” I said reminiscently. “You’re right. I’ll try to take you out more often from now on,” Hayden willingly offered. My eyes widened in astonishment at his promise. I guess this meant that the tense situation between the two gang had improved already. “Are things…better?” I dared to ask softly. “Sort of. We’re trying to avoid direct conflict and confrontations while keeping the relationship with our clients safe. In the end it is up to the clients who they decide to do business with. No partnership with Silva is being considered unless you’re still wondering,” Hayden explained casually. “I see…” I mumble softly. “Don’t worry too much. I want you to stay out of it,” Hayden said sternly before I got too curious. “Ok. Returning back outside would be good…” I whispered hopefully. “Have you figured out what
“If you like it, then we’ll go with this…” I said as I quickly typed out a reply to Lucy. We were scheduled to meet up with Lucy and her team later today to go through the plans for the actual day of the wedding. According to her, being at the venue would also help me picture what the wedding would turn out to be like. With Hayden’s approval, the meeting at the church was going to happen today in the afternoon. “Thank you for driving me and coming to see the venue with me…” I thanked him when we arrived at the church. It was the same church where we had our first disastrous attempt at a wedding, but it felt so different now. Unlike the fear, anxiety, and stress that I felt on the day that I was forced here to marry Hayden, I felt only happiness and hope when I stepped out of the car onto the church grounds. The other difference was that Hayden was here with me willingly. “Don’t fall on your face. Why are you even wearing heels?” Hayden warned before he started complaining a little
Hayden paid my warning no mind at all, and his hand seemed to squeeze my breasts even rougher and faster than before, drawing a soft moan from me. His fingers expertly found the perks of my nipples though all my clothes and began playing around with it. His arm around my body tightened and I couldn’t struggle or get away. “What are you…doing?” I asked, although I already had a very good guess. “Making more memories for us,” Hayden replied without hesitation or shame. “Hayden…we’re in a…church…” I managed to say in a small whimper. “Hmm…then why are you moaning this way?” Hayden asked as if it was my fault. “Because…you’re touching me…in weird ways…” I replied as heat rushed to my face. “Don’t make it sound like it’s my fault…” Hayden teased as he whispered into my ear. Hayden proceeded to blow softly into my ear and my entire body shivered in response. He knew that my ears were extremely sensitive, yet he showed me no mercy at all. “It is…your fault…” I muttered as I tried to
