"Beau.... Blue...." Perrie called out as she entered her house once more. When she heard nothing she turned around only to see Debbie backing her car out of the driveway and taking off down the road. A huff escaped her lips before she saw the bouquet of flowers on the table and a note. It read:

"Hello again Love,

I know what you must be thinking "another note I'm going to kill him" but hear me out. Do you remember back when we first met? You said you liked things simple and I said I was going to change your mind. Well, sorry Baba but welcome to the day I change your mind.

There's another surprise in the closet for you. I hope you like it and if it doesn't fit blame Leigh. There's a car coming to pick you up at 7:30 I should tell you 7:15 but I know you already look beautiful and only need to change into something a bit more proper.

If you'd like a drink there's a bottle and a glass in the ice box. Just don't drink too much because we will have more later.

I love you more than words can describe and Blue and I can not wait to see you.

I love you, we love you, I love you!

Beau"

She couldn't help but laugh at the fact that the last sentence and his name were basically scribbled. He must've been busy with Blue. Perrie made her way to the ice box and found a bottle of wine that was not their earlier. She poured herself a glass before she walked up to her room and into their shared closet.

Once in the doorway she stopped. The dress he had picked out was beautiful. It looked handmade and was gorgeous. It was a light blue almost white, the bust was lace with pearls tastefully sown into the bodice. The dress would fall down to her ankles, there was a slit in the left side that would show just her knee down. It looked as though the ruffles would flow behind her as she walked but she would only be able to tell when she put it on.

Perrie shook her head. The dress was beautiful and she could only imagine where she was taking them if that's what she was going to be wearing. That's when she looked to the right. Sitting next to the mirror was a few boxes of jewelry and yet another note. Though this one simply read: "I love you."

She sat down and opened the boxes. The first was a beautiful yet simple gold necklace with a locket. When she looked at it closer she realized that it was one of Beau's. He always wore it as it had a picture of Blue in it. Perrie opened the next box to find a pair of earrings. Upon closer inspection she realized that they were a pair of her mams. She couldn't pinpoint exactly what they were from but she knew that it was a significant event that she had seen her wear them at.

The last one was something she had never seen before. She smiled as she looked down at the delicate nose ring with a sapphire set into it. She set the box back where it was. It was early, too early for her to get ready and she had no idea what to do.

She went to sit on the edge of the bed and texted Jade only to get nothing back, she texted Ellie and once again received no text in return. She sighed in defeat before she turned a movie on. Her attention was more on her wine than the tv as she stared at the glass. She couldn't help but think about what was to come and her mind wouldn't move from that.

Perrie stared at the full glass for what felt like an hour until she looked up and saw that it was 6:45. She outwardly sighed knowing that it was finally time to get ready. She did so slowly making sure not to rip the dress or forget a piece of jewelry.

When she heard a knock on the door at 7:30 she was just getting her new nose ring in. She made her way down the stairs before opening the door. She was taken aback by the fact that her brother was there in a suit waiting for her rather than a car.

"Come on let's not keep Blue and Beau waiting shall we?" Jonnie drew her out of her trance before she nodded. Once they were in the car he spoke again. "Want any music or.." She shook her head before he could finish and watched as she looked at the window perplexed as to what was going on.

The drive took a half an hour but to Perrie seemed like they had just drove to their mums and circled the block ten times. Everything just seemed too familiar. As they finally stopped her suspicions were confirmed. They had stopped at their mums house.

"But I thought.." Jonnie simply hushed her before she could go on.

"It's just a quick stop to pick Mum up." She eyed him before he got out the car. He returned with their mother who had a bouquet of flowers that looked similar to the ones on her table at home but was smaller.

"Here you go Petal. I meant to bring them earlier so we could leave them at the house but since you won't be coming home with us it's best for you to have them now." Perrie eyed her mother before nodding.

"What are they for?" Debbie chuckled.

"For Blue's first birthday." Confusion once again crossed Perries face before she simply nodded not understanding why her mother would buy her one year old flowers for his birthday.

"Shall we?" Jonnie finally said before both women nodded and they set off towards their final destination. As they drove Perrie finally came to the conclusion that this must just be a family dinner before Blue's birthday what she didn't understand is why they wouldn't do it after his party when they already had everyone at their house. "Come on Pezza." He said snapping her out of her trance.

The blonde followed her brother and mother into a botanical garden. Confusion was plastered across Perries face as her father took the place of her brother. Alexander held her back with a gentle hug before he spoke.

"You know you look beautiful Perrie." The blonde blushed at her fathers words as her mother and brother continued to walk in leaving only the two of them outside of the doors of the butterfly garden. Slowly he began to guide his daughter towards the building. "I used to love taking you here as a child. Your smile would always light up when a butterfly landed on you." A smile grew on both of their faces. "You always said your perfect wedding would be here." She stopped dead in her tracks.

"What did you just say?" He shook his head his lips shut as he nudged her to continue towards the doors. That's when she saw it all.

Chairs were lined up on either side of the aisle. Her friends and family along with Beaus in the chairs. She looked at the end of the aisle and saw her three best friends along with Beau, Blue and her brother standing there. Debbie came from the side and gently placed a vail in her hair. She could see the fear in her eyes and the tears forming.

"Petal. He didn't want you to have to worry about any of the planning or put any stress on you. He wanted to do this so you both could have your happy ever after before the tour." Debbie saw the relief wash over her daughters face. "So what do you say? Shall your father and I walk you down that aisle?"

"Please mum."
