MEL POV I WEEK LATER "Stop stressing out, you look beautiful," I said as I placed my hand on the stressed bride standing in front of me.She had 10 minutes before she walked down the aisle and she was freaking out, worried that she wasn't good enough."What if I'm not what he wants? What if he's making the wrong decision? I mean, look at me," she exclaimed, vigorously applying more blush to her already pink cheeks."I look like a whore on my wedding day, my breasts are out and they look saggy, and don't even get me started on my hair, it's too much, isn't it? I should just leave it down" She rambles."You better shut the fuck up before I slap you" I chuckle "He loves you, please stop stressing out.This is your wedding day, you are more than enough for him and he is lucky to have such an amazing girl like you""You think so? I do think my breasts look saggy" She examines her breasts in the mirror and pushes them up slightly."They look fine Charlotte" I giggle and she smiles turning
MELANIE POVShortly after Leo and I talked for a moment, Leo headed to the bathroom to freshen up leaving me to sit here alone,however, he did invite me to go with him, and maybe have a quick fuck. But having sex at my best friend's wedding seemed a little disrespectful to me so unfortunately I turned him down.I watched all the guests partying on the dancefloor and they looked like they were having fun, I glanced over to Charlotte who gave me a wink when Dean was dancing with her and whispering things in her ear. I rolled my eyes at her and she stuck her middle finger up at me causing me to giggle out loud."Having fun? unfamiliar man's voice asked, I peered up at him.He had dark hair and brown eyes with a clean-shaven face. He looked around Leo's age and he towered over me even though I was sitting down."Hum yeah" I murmured awkwardly."You a friend of Charlotte's?" He asked pulling out the chair that Leo sat on before and sitting down beside me."Yeah, I was her maid of honor
LEO POV The whole ride home was silent, Melanie was fidgeting with her freshly painted nails while I was gripping the steering wheel with force. I couldn't help but feel like something happened when she went back inside. Fuck I should've gone in with her. "Did Lucas say something to you?" I asked her hopeful that he didn't hurt her. She's been through so much already, she was once assaulted and almost raped, not to mention when I put my hands on her, all those years ago and now she's carrying a baby. Our baby. "No why?" She said picking at her nails.I clenched my jaw, she was hiding something from me. "You haven't been the same since you came out that door" "He didn't say anything I just feel sick and I want to go home like, I said" She snapped at me. "Is it the baby?" I questioned. "What else would it be" She scoffed slumping down in her seat. "I don't like that tone," I said, my jaw clenched once again and my grip on the wheel tightened. "I don't like that tone" She
MEL POV Now cuddled up in bed with Leo, his fingertips caressing my arm with my head resting on his hard chest I was starting to get worried. I hadn't heard anything from Lucas, I mean that's supposed to be a good thing but when he says something bad is going to happen to me and my child I would at least like a warning.Fuck."Tell me what Lucas said to you" Leo spoke up huskily, his fingertips felt as soft as ever trailing across my arm."I told you he didn't say anything" I argued which made Leo get up from the bed, I whined from the loss of his touch and he stared at me with those deep blue eyes of his."Don't bullshit me Melanie" He spoke sternly "I know he said something to you it's obvious""I can't" I whispered."Why not?" He chuckled, nothing was amusing about this."Just leave it, Leo, it's not important" I groaned slumping back on the pillow yet his eyes remained on my face waiting for me to give him an answer."Just let me go to sleep" I breathed, my voice laced with anno
MEL POV 2 MONTHS LATER Sitting in the office in the evening was way too boring for my liking. I sat on my desk playing with my pens since I finished my work early but David wanted me to stay late for some reason. All I wanted to do was go home and be in the arms of my boyfriend. I also successfully moved into Leo's house, so now we're living together we can focus on the baby. I don't have much of a showing bump yet but it's getting there ever so slightly. I told Charlotte the news of my pregnancy a few weeks ago and she almost hugged me to death squealing in excitement. The thing I'm most excited about is finding out the gender which we can hopefully do in a few weeks. Leo wants a girl because he wants her to be just like me which I think is adorable and I want a boy but we'll be happy with whichever we get. "Aren't you supposed to be doing work, Miss Vaughn?" Leo's voice interrupted me from my thoughts, he stood at the door with files in his hand wearing the beautiful b
MEL POV After Leo left with Lina I decided to read the report she handed me. 10 minutes went by and I was still waiting patiently for Leo to come back.What if he likes Lina? I mean she's stunning, not to mention she's younger than me and we all know how Leo feels about younger women. She's also way smarter than me and the way her curve bounces when she walks could make any man fall to his knees.Although I trust Leo I still feel like he thinks Lina is attractive I mean, even I think she's hot."Stop doing that" Leo interrupted me from my thoughts and I peered up from the computer screen gazing at his muscular frame standing at the door."Doing what?" I questioned."Overthinking every little detail. Do you seriously think I would want to fuck Lina?" He asked and my eyes widened, he's like a fucking mind reader but he also wasn't wrong."Well she did ask you on a date once, plus you're quite known for fucking co-workers, aren't you?" I state smugly referring to his assistant."What'
MEL POV After ending the call with Charlotte. My eyes darted to the man in front of me, his tie loosely hung around his neck, hair dishevelled and a drunken grin spread across his face. "You have some nerve laughing and smiling while I was sat here worrying about you, I didn't even go to fucking sleep because I was scared shit about you" I snapped, he stared at me, thinking for a second then he spoke. "I'm here now, aren't I?" I scoffed rolling my eyes "That's not the fucking point Leo!" I exclaimed. "You can't stress me out like this, I'm fucking pregnant and I don't need you coming home drunk." "You were doing so well too" I sighed. He hadn't drunk anything in the last 2 months not even a little sip of wine, he was completely sober and I was happy considering I'm pregnant and he cares so much for me and our child that's why he stopped drinking. "I didn't drink that much" He murmured leaning one hand on the living room counter to steady himself. "Why did you even d
LEO POV I shouldn't be forgiven so easily by Melanie, I caused her pain all night and disregarded her calls while I was at a club drinking. Melanie has suffered enough and for me to do this, I would see it as unforgivable and I should be scolded right now.She forgives me way too easily when I don't deserve it. She's carrying our child all by herself, doing everything by herself and I fucked everything up by drinking again and it's all because of my brain. "My mom is coming over soon" Her sweet voice spoke out, laying her head on my ink-filled chest"Mhm" I hummed staring into space but when she peered up at me I couldn't help but gaze at those gorgeous ocean-blue eyes."Is everything okay?" Her beautiful eyes search my face with a glint of concern showing."Everything is fine baby," I smiled and she hesitantly nodded laying her head back on my chest, I reached my hand up to her golden locks playing with the soft strands before massaging her scalp, she let out a soft moan at the s
