The Original Wife [1]

Do Not Go Gentle

"Tonight's the decades dance" Rebekah said worried

"So" Nik shrugged

"So I'm head of the committee we have to go" she said

"I'm not going to some stupid dance" Nik said

"Oh come on Nik let her have her fun it's only one more night" I said looking at him

"Please I have big plans for tonight just go for me" Rebekah said

"Really come on Nik, Rebekah never says please" I chuckled

"Okay fine one last hurrah" Nik said caving in

"One last hurrah Nik" Rebekah said then left the room no doubt off to find a dress

"You women will be the death of me" Nik huffed

"I do hope not you're much to fun" I smirked standing in front of him my hands resting on his chest

"Now why don't you take me upstairs and help me out of these clothes so I can find something head turning for tonight" I seductively whispered while my hands crept under his shirt

"Your wish is my command" he smirked and sped us upstairs as I laughed my head off.

It had been two hours since I started getting ready and finally I was done. I rummaged through my walk in closet and found some dresses from the 20s. I found an off white flapper dress made of silk it was one of my favourites from the decade. The dress was slightly low cut and was see through around the top of the bust. It had intricate designs sown into the bodice and from the top of my thigh's down the dress was covered in fringing. I paired the dress with cream pumps (also from my time in the 20s)I wore long pearls for around my neck and long cream silk gloves that went above my elbow.

My hair was in a sleek curled up-do like the way I used to do it in 1920. I wrapped pearl headband around my head it had a jewelled flower and feather on the side of the head piece. My make-up made me look very alluring, I did a smoky black eye and dark red lips. I looked at myself in the mirror it was amazing it looked as though I had taken a step back in time.

"You look perfect angel" Nik said from behind me I turned around and saw him wearing a cream three piece suit with his hair slicked to the side.

"Well you don't look so bad yourself darling" I said fixing his striped tie.

"Shall we" he said holding out his arm

"Always the gentleman" I laughed as we left.

We walked into the high school gymnasium it was decorated in lights and balloons a song popular in the 20s was playing in the background as the school students tried to imitate some jazz moves.

"How unbelievably tacky" I mused

"Come on love you were the one who begged me to come" he smirked with his arm wrapped around my waist.

"For Rebekah's sake it doesn't mean I have to like it besides this cheap imitation could never compare to our time in Chicago and Atlanta" I said turning in his arms

"Prohibition parties those were the days" he mused

"Where is Rebekah by the way I can't see her anywhere" I said looking around

"She'll find us Angel don't worry now come dance with me" he said pulling me to the dance floor as a slow song came on I lay my head on his chest while we swayed to the music forgetting the world around us. When the song ended something caught Nik's eye.
