wedding rehearsal
- july 15th, 2022
THE REHEARSAL for Sergio and Anna had gone smoothly, as had the past week that Sophia, Andrew, Laila, and Minnie had been in Colombia. Angelica and Sophia weren't on super speaking terms, but all parties were remaining civil purely for the fact that Sergio was getting married tomorrow.
All the guests were invited to the rehearsal and the dinner afterwards for more quality time, so everyone was still at the venue. There was two speakers playing music, the venue was passing out small samples of food, and everyone was dancing before they head to the restaurant.
Andrew sat at a table with a drink in his hands as he watched Sophia from a far. His chocolate eyes were glued to her as the blonde danced around with her niece, Angelina.
A grin rose to Andrew's lips as another little girl, most likely a cousin, ran up to Sophia and Angelina. Sophia smiled at the girl, fixing her hair before holding the girl's hand and twirling het around. Andrew felt his heart skip a beat as he watched his girlfriend with the two little girls. Children.
God, she's going to be a great mother.
"She's good with kids," Andrew's eyes reluctantly moved away from Sophia when he heard Gabriel's voice.
"She is." Andrew agreed as he kept his voice calm. The two honestly hadn't spoken a lot since the first dinner, and whenever they did it was very tense. Andrew was well aware Gabriel did not approve of him for Sophia.
And honestly, Andrew didn't give a single fuck.
"She's a natural at it. Always has been." Gabriel continued as he sat down next to Andrew. The Brit glanced at Sophia for a moment before meeting her brother's eyes. "You guys probably aren't having kids, right?"
"We haven't really—" Andrew tried to say, shrugging his shoulders.
"Between you and me, that would break Sophia's heart. She really wants children. She's always said that since we were young," Gabriel cut him off before sipping his beer. "She wants to be a mother."
"I know." Andrew replied a lower voice, trying to figure out Gabriel's intentions of this conversation.
"But honestly she can't have kids any time soon," Gabriel shrugged as it was the obvious answer. "Her first project just came out. She has Dune filming soon. Everyone is offering every part in everything. She has a lot going for her."
"She does," Andrew whispered. He turned his head, his eyes landing on Sophia and the two little girls. Gabriel had a point.
"She doesn't have the time right now to be pregnant and then just having a kid," Gabriel gestured to his sister, who was dancing with his daughter. "It's a lot of responsibility. Full time job. She's young. She doesn't have the time for that. She's not mature enough for it either. Sophia is twenty-five years old. She may say she's ready for marriage and children, but she's not actually. She's young, Andrew."
Andrew just kept his eyes on Sophia, feeling tears threatening to rise. He couldn't find it in him— He didn't trust his voice right now to respond to Gabriel.
He closed his eyes when Gabriel spoke again, "But she deserves all that in a few years, doesn't she? Marriage, a family?"
"She deserves everything." Andrew gathered all his courage to reply, trying not to let his voice waver.
"I think so too," Gabriel agreed as he held back a smirk that Andrew couldn't see. "But you're a on a bit of time crunch, aren't you, Andrew? Almost forty. Not married. No kids. But Sophia can't have them for a little while. I don't know how you guys are gonna work it out, but I hope you do."
A shaky sigh left Andrew's lips as he ran his hands over his face in frustration. Gabriel was right:
Sophia had everything going for her, and she deserved everything too.

rehearsal dinner
- july 15th, 2022
A FORCED LAUGH left Sophia's lips as Kruz cracked another joke, making the entire table burst into laughs. She glanced at Andrew, who sat besides him. He didn't laugh. Or smile. He actually hasn't spoken all night.
He was quiet on the car ride there too. Sophia held his hand in the car and he didn't deny her. Andrew just gave her a tight-lipped smile. But that wasn't usual. That wasn't them.
Something was wrong— Sophia could tell. It was making her stomach flip as she desperately tried to figure out what it was. They didn't fight. No disagreements. They've barely spoken since the rehearsal earlier that day.
"Drew," Sophia forced a small smile as she turned to her boyfriend, gesturing to the plate. "Do you want another empanada?"
This isn't going to work," Andrew looked up from his plate, whispering to his girlfriend abruptly. Sophia froze, meeting his eyes. Her beautiful smile slowly fell from her lips— God, that smile. Andrew would have done anything for her and that smile.
And in this moment, he hated himself for making it disappear.
"Wha— What do you mean?" Sophia asked back, her voice growing weaker with every word. She licked her lips, and Andrew fell his heart sting. That was her tell— She was trying to hold her tears in.
"Lov— Sophia," Andrew corrected himself and the blonde dropped her fork. She began to shake her head and Andrew sat up in his seat, reaching out to her with his hand, "Please just—"
"No," Sophia cut him as she stood up from her seat. She gave Andrew a stern look, gesturing for him to do the same. Andrew hesitantly got up from his seat, avoiding the eyes of Laila and Minnie (Sophia's family thankfully didn't think anything of it.) The pair were looking at the two of them with panicked faces.
Speeding up in his steps, Andrew followed Sophia out of the restaurant as he called out for her, "Soph! Moony!"
"Don't call me that," She turned around to face him, shaking her head. Sophia crossed her arms as she met Andrew's brown eyes. Her own eyes were filling up with tears, but she still looked at him strongly as if nothing was wrong. Licking her lips again, Sophia whispered, "Don't call me 'Moony,' or anything else that tells me you love me right before you're about to try to break up with me."
"Try to?" Andrew questioned as he tried to hold his own tears down.
"Yes, try to break up with me," Sophia repeated, wiping away a tear before it could fall on her face. She took a few steps towards him, pointing at him, "Go ahead, Andrew Garfield, try to break up with me. Try to break up with me after you called me the love of your life, you promised me marriage and forever, and all of that absolute bullshit—"
"It wasn't bullshit, I swear to you, it wasn't. I meant every word I said—" Andrew's voice died out softly, shaking his head. Every bone in his body told him to stop talking, to just reach out for her, but he didn't. "We're on different paths, Sophia—"
"Are you seriously saying that to me right now?" Sophia raised her voice, giving him a look of disbelief as she backed away from him.
"I'm on a time crunch, Sophia!" Andrew reminded her desperately, trying to make sense of the situation in front of them. "I'm 38 years old! I need to get married soon and have children soon! I want that soon!"
"And why can't that be with me?" Sophia asked back whilst tears just streamed down her face freely.
"You're 25 years old! Your career is just starting out! Look at you!" He yelled, gesturing to her and her body. "That isn't what you want yet!"
"You don't get to tell me what I want!" Sophia shouted back at him, shaking her head. She held in a sob, freezing for a moment. Andrew felt his heart break as he just stared at her. She was crying and he was the cause of it. "You told me this week— This one week with my family wouldn't break us! You told me that! You looked into my eyes and promised me we would be fine! You told me to believe in you! Believe in us!"
"I was wrong, alright?" Andrew raised his voice and Sophia closed her mouth, nodding her head. Her vision blurred with tears, drowning her eyes. Andrew ran a hand over his face before managing to speak calmly. "I was wrong. We leave in two days. We'll get through the wedding tomorrow and the day after, but then that is the end of this, okay?"
Sophia didn't say a word. She just nodded her head and crossed her arms over herself. She wiped the tears off her face the best she could when she heard footsteps behind her. Sophia turned around, her face falling once again when Laila and Minnie speed-walked towards them.
"Dinner is done, someone is paying the bill, I don't know who." Laila rambled, waving her hand. "We told them we would come find you guys."
"We should go." Minnie declared as Laila wrapped an arm around Sophia, pulling her towards her. The brunette led the blonde to the car and Andrew wiped his tears as Minnie looked at him. He didn't meet her eyes when she stood at his side. Minnie whispered, "What happened?"
"We're done." Andrew mumbled, running a hand over his face as Sophia and Laila got in the car.
