THE BIG DAY

Six months had past Gianni had put a good show on both of them declaring their love for her and the one left standing they would take her as their own. The argument was heated til other took their guns out and said. ‘Any last words?’

Silence wreaked around them. The guns were pulled out and they had a shooting frenzy Gianni stumbled and Raven shot him again he fell to the ground, blooded dead.

The church yard was full Alora she’d fake tears liana next to her with her brother holding her tight.

That was six months ago and the weeding preparations were go. She wasn’t really sure about this, but she knew that she had to go through it. She had promised Gianni she would to make it all real, she just hoped no one would turn yo and start a shoot out.

Luckily for them no one did. They’d said their vows though it felt like a lie to her all of this was for show again. Her Stomach turned in knots, she felt lethargic she just wanted to get this day over and down with Raven had chose her dress a dark maroon dress with splashes of diamonds over it.

He hadn’t been able to keep his eyes of her through out the ceremony. They’d greeted their guest. He pulled her close for their first dance. ‘Relax babe just enjoy it okay.’ He said kissing her neck, shivers went down her spine.

After the reception and everyone one was gone Laina walked up to her. ‘Are you okay Alora? You look so lost.’

‘Yeah I’m fine.’

‘You know you had to do this for your own safety right?’

‘Yeah.’ She sighed. ‘It just feels like he wants more out of this than he’s letting on.’

‘He loves you Alora that’s why he agreed to this.’

She looked at her best friend on disbelief.

‘Really? Alora, you can’t say that you haven’t noticed. He’s been in love with you since the first day we met him he just held it back because of Gianni.’

She smiled slightly.

He wrapped his arms around her kissing her neck. Looking over here shoulder. ‘Liana.’

She smiled. ‘I hope you enjoyed today. I know I did.’

‘I did thank you.’

‘That reminds me I’ll have to thank him.’

‘For what?’ He said approaching them.

‘For all of this. I don’t know how you managed all this at short notice.’

‘Easy and there’s no need to thank me. We’re bros and you’d do the same for me.’

‘True. So are you you staying the night?’

‘We are.’

‘Sweet.’

They all went into the house having drinks and chatting before they went to bed.

Raven led Alora into their bedroom god knows where Gianni was hiding out. He’d been gone six months and Raven had vowed silence. He closed the door behind him. ‘I really love you Alora I want this to work.’

‘I do to.’

‘I’m not Gianni. I will never cheat on you. He was a fool to lose you.’ He pressed his lips on hers kissing her passionately, unzipping her dress, taking it off, slipping out of his suit and shoes, lifting her around him and kissing her harder and harder. Ripping her thongs off, pushing deep inside her. As she groaned he pulled her shoes off, pushing harder and harder until they both came. He walked them over to the bed lying her down their tongues twisting as he pushed in again having sex with her.
