The Look

"Sylus Qin, what do you have up your sleeve now?"

You stare him down as you walk slightly behind him, following the attendant guiding you both to a separate suite. "What does it look like? I'm taking you shopping." He answered, sparing a glance at you before looking back at the attendant. "Yeah, but where and what kind of shop?!" You yell whisper while trying to be quiet enough so that the attendant doesn't hear you. "And why did we have to go through a private entrance and through heavy security?!" You continued. "You'll see." And before you can attempt to pry more information out of him, you're met with two large golden doors. Once opened, your mouth slowly drops at the sight in front of you. This wasn't just any shop that he took you too but the one far grander and the one you have been seeing online and talking about non stop lately.

"Oh...my god"

Dresses of different shapes, sizes, lengths and styles filled the room leaving you breathless. You couldn't help but blurt it out due to how absolutely stunning everything looked. From the marble statues to the sleek decor, it was everything you would expect out of a luxury brand bridal boutique. You immediately turn to Sylus, eyes asking what you couldn't say and he just smiled. "I have my connections." But how? The waiting list is almost ten years long and this boutique is so exclusive that they even declined one of the presidents daughters to come here. So how in the hell did he get an appointment before her?

"Sylus listen, I couldn't possibly-"

"Couldn't possibly what? Put on a dress?"

"Well, yes! These dresses cost over-"

"Who said you were paying for it?"

"But Sylus, I wouldn't be able to pay-"

"Who said I would ever ask you too?"

"But-"

"Go with the nice attendant here and go pick out some dresses to try on. You wouldn't want to keep her waiting do you, sweetie?"

"B-but Sy-"

"I'm not keen on repeating myself, kitten."

The look in his eye was serious yet playful. You couldn't argue with him and you didn't want the poor attendant to stand there so you caved and went looking around. You couldn't lie, you didn't just feel like you were dreaming but felt like a royalty. People there at your beck and call, expensive champagne, your favorite snacks and then to have your pick of dresses that are one of a kind? A queen. You felt like a queen. You're ushered by your own personal assistant to the changing room, giving you a luxury robe and heels that probably cost more than a luxury car and slip on into the first dress.

Sylus could hear you gasping and giggling and while typing in his phone smiled and then eventually started to want to see you in the dresses you were trying. Hearing how your voice sounded like a kid in a candy store and how enthusiastic the staff started to be made him want in on the festivities. Sure he could have left you to do this by yourself but seeing how passionately you spoke about this place, why not tag along? "Well, will I ever see any of them?" He chirped making everyone suddenly stop laughing and look at you. "Wait, you wanted to see them on me too?" You reply back, shocked that he even wanted to in the first place. "Do you not want me to see you?" Of course you become flustered, not realizing that there would be a possibility but soon asked the others to bring you out so that then Sylus could see what yourself and everyone else was gushing over.

"Close your eyes!"

"Wait...Must I really-"

"Yes!"

He chuckles then places his hands over his eyes.

"Are they covered!?"

"Yes, sweetie they are covered."

You slowly step out and is carefully guided up to the runway stage. Silk and the gorgeous veil following after you. "Okay, you can open your eyes now..And DONT laugh!" He chuckles, making you pout and almost call off the entire reveal but then slowly uncovers his eyes and finally looks at you. "I'm not going to La-" he was saying before his eyes set themselves on you. It's everything you have ever wanted and more in a dress and he could clearly see it on yours and everyone else's faces. It takes a lot to make him speechless and he doesn't recall if anyone ever has done so successfully.

He pauses, eyes wider than ever before and The dots start connecting in his mind. Suddenly, vivid visions of you not just walking down the isle and calling him darling husband, honey, and other things but your belly bump come to mind and he immediately realizes that perhaps the lingering gnawing feelings he's been attempting to keep a bay about you has finally won and while you're standing there acting so shy and demure, he's thinking about how he can marry you and get you pregnant in the next twenty-four hours. Is this...no it can't be-

"Sy..? What do you think?" You do a little spin with the help of the attendants. You could tell by his blown out irises that he was somewhere else in his head. You couldn't put a finger on it but something was different about him. To you, he looked as though something took his breath away but In that moment, he felt as though he just witnessed something heavenly. Like a goddess presented himself for him and his eyes only and he was just soaking it in. "S-Sy...?" You say shyly while the attendants around you both looked between you too. They wouldn't say it out loud but the look he's giving isn't anything new to them. See, they know that look because only men in absolute love make the look he's making and you don't even have a clue. He gulps, suddenly blinking and looking everywhere but at you. He clears his throat, trying to stop the ever growing pace of his heartbeat.

"You look beautiful."
