Liam's living room above.

Amelia Smith

"I'm going to miss hanging out here," Nicole says.

We're at the living in Liam's house, where we usually hang out. The wedding is in a month and so many preparations have been going on.

My mum, Liam's mum and so many of our mums have been so busy with the planning.

Apparently, they want it to be the wedding of the century because my family and Liam's are both parts of the council.

They are spending money like crazy and I'm really grateful because they are easing out my stress. I don't really care about what happens at the wedding that much. All I want is to get married to Liam.

My mum and Liam's however, are hiring the best chefs, best wedding planners, best decorators. They literally want perfection.

Our engagement hasn't been announced so there a lot of questions going on about my two million dollar engagement ring that was snapped by the paparazzi.

And yes! Two million freaking dollars.

That is how expensive my Greene and Co ring is. I wear it with pride and so much love of course. It's beautiful.

"Why?" Liam asks Nicole.

"Because once you two get married, you'll be living in a different house and that's where we'll be going." She answers.

One of the things I'm most excited about is living with Liam. We found the most amazing house ever and his mum is going to do the interior.

"We can come here and hang out anytime, Nicole," Liam says.

"Hmmm, okay." She replies.

"Guys, when are you girls leaving?" Jacob asks, looking at me.

"Where?" Colton asks her.

"Amelia's final dress fitting." Jas answers.

"Boriinggg." Tyler sings.

"In three days," I answer Jacob.

The dress fitting is in Dubai. A fashion designer, Micheal Cinco is doing my dress. He is a good friend of Michelle (Nicole's mum) who is also an iconic fashion designer.

"And what are the plans for today?" Rob asks.

"Cake tasting." Liam answers.

"Can I come?" Ian asks.

"Sure." I shrug.

"I can't believe that you two are getting married. It's so crazy." Colton smiles.

I smile. "I know, all of you guys need to settle as well. I'm not judging but don't you think it's time you stop playing all those girls and Brian," I look at him and sigh. "please stop cheating on your girlfriend."

"What girlfriend?" He raises an eyebrow.

Brian has been cheating on his girlfriend for some time. I usually don't like judging others but I think it's not fair on her.

"Your girlfriend. I've known about her for a while now. I didn't say anything because I don't want you to feel judged." I say softly.

"I don't have a girlfriend!" He frowns.

"But Jacob said- ohhhh." I glare at Jacob who is now laughing so hard.

"You're....so....easy to mess with." He says between the laughs.

I grab a pillow and throw it at him. "I actually believed you, you jerk!"

After everyone stops laughing, I take a deep breath. "So guys, I was thinking about John Legend singing at the wedding. I know Liam likes him so I don't have a problem with that but what do you guys think?"

"I like him. He is really great." Rob says.

Everyone agrees and I look at Liam who just shrugs.

"My mum is really great friends with him. I can ask her to talk to him." Tyler says.

I was thinking about talking to my mum but Tyler's mum has more celebrity connections.

"Sure, that will be great." I smile.

I decide to go upstairs to Liam's room to have a nap. I woke very early to work out.

A few minutes later, Liam comes into the room.

"Can't stay away from me?" I tease.

He smiles and hops in the bed. "You know it."

We stay there in silence but I decide to break it. "I saw Caleb yesterday."

Liam frowns. "Where?"

"Target," I reply, moving closer to him.

"Did he say anything?" He pulls me by the waist.

I shake my head. "No, I don't think he even saw me."

"You never told me why you two got into a fight at that time." I start playing with his shirt.

He and I are matching. He was kind of against the idea at first but after a lot of convincing, he agreed.

Amelia's outfit.

Liam's outfit.

When we went for the Calvin Klein campaign shoot, they gave us matching t-shirts and I thought it would be cute if we were them on the same day.

"I heard him saying stuff about you," Liam whispers.

We're still talking about Caleb. Right!

"What stuff?" I raise an eyebrow.

The words that Liam says next make my jaw drop. What the heck?

"So you're saying that Caleb was fantasizing about... um, you know."

"Sleeping with you, yes." He replies, keeping the angry expression on his face.

"So you hit him?"

"No, he was playing basketball with some guys so I went up to him and was like 'what did you just say' and he repeated it so I just started punching him."

"Which got you a black eye." I point.

He shrugs. "It was worth it."

I drop the water I was drinking and sit on the bed. "I can't believe it. He was my friend, why would even think that way of me?"

"Because you're so hot and beautiful," Liam says in an obvious tone.

"So do you also?" I laugh nervously.

He turns his head to me. "Do I also what?"

I clear my throat softly and look down, not being able to look into his eyes. "Think about me like that."

He starts laughing.

"I do more than think. I have dreams about you and me." He says in a teasing voice.

"Oh my God! This is so embarrassing!" I put my hands on my cheek to cover my blush.

"You're the one that wanted to know. I can be more detailed if you want because they happen to be my favorite dreams." He says still smiling.

"Stop! You're making me uncomfortable!"

"You're innocence is actually so adorable." He laughs. "My cute little virgin."

"If you keep teasing me, I'm never going to have sex with you." I joke.

"I just really find your innocence admiring. Even though before me, Jason was the only guy you officially dated. I know that you've met a lot of guys. Not just from Bluefall. Like you're a model, you have traveled a lot and met a lot of guys. Why did you wait?" He starts rubbing circles on my arm.

"I know that not every relationship lasts and virginity is something that If you lose, you'll never be able to get back. I don't want to look back and regret losing mine to someone who is not worth it." I answer.

He nods. "That's true. I don't even remember much about the girl I first slept with. All I know is that her name was Lena and her parents had a boat which we did it on."

"Really?"

He nods.

"I feel guilty a lot of times....with you. I feel like I'm denying you or something." I confess.

"You're not, babe." He laughs softly.

"Are you sure?" I look down.

"I won't lie. Of course, I want us to make love but I will never force you into doing something you're not ready for. I can even hold on after the wedding. As long as we're together, that's okay with me cause I love you so deeply." He says, making my heart flutter.

"I want to do it on our wedding night." I blush.

He leans forward. "Yeah?"

"Yes."

He smiles and places his lips on mine. I put my hands around his neck and deepen the kiss.

We pull away and he goes to my ear. "You're making more excited for our honeymoon." He whispers sexily.

"We're going for a honeymoon?"

He looks at me. "Duh!" He says in an obvious tone.

"Well, we never talked about it." I point.

"Of course, we're going somewhere for our honeymoon, sweetheart." He says.

"Where?"

"It's a surprise." He winks.

****

"Oh my God." My mum starts crying.

"I know." Liam's mum hugs her.

"It just feels like a dream. She's so beautiful." Mum cries more.

I roll my eyes at her and turn my attention to Nicole's mum. "We just need to adjust the shoulders." She says.

We are in the UAE. Dubai, to be more specific.

I'm in my wedding dress and my mum can't control herself. I'm feeling nervous as hell because the wedding is in less than a month.

It's in twenty-four freaking days!

Liam has been acting kind of different lately so I guess the wedding jitters are kind of also getting to him.

I can't wait for the wedding and to get all this stress over with.

Last week we had a huge Victoria's Secret trip with the girls. It was fun and nerve-wracking at the same time.

"I think we need more flowers on the bottom." Micheal, the fashion designer says.

"Yes." Nicole's mum agrees.

"Hello." Camilla comes into the room.

She and the girls are also doing their fitting in the next room. For the bridesmaids' dresses, they chose a simple navy yet elegant blue gown.

"This dress is just perfect." She comments, looking at Micheal.

"Thanks, darling." He smiles at her.

Amelia's dress fitting.

I didn't know who to choose as my maid of honor so Emily, Nicole, and I wrote our names in different papers and shuffled.

I picked Nicole and she was so excited while Emily picked me and Nicole picked Emily.

"So Liam just sent the cake sample. Do you want to see?" Camilla asks.

Liam and the guys are in Bluefall doing groom and groomsmen stuff. I miss him a lot so we're also taking on FaceTime.

"Sure." I smile at her.

"Here." She hands me her phone.

The wedding cake sample.

"Can I see?" My mum asks so I pass her Camilla's phone.

"But this is too simple and small, honey."

I let out a sigh. "You've got to be kidding me."

"I'm serious, Amelia. There are going to be a lot of people at the wedding. Right, Diana?"

"That's right." Aunt Diana nods.

I shake my head and look at Micheal. "Can you also loosen the bust area a bit. It's making me look flat-chested."

"Sure." He nods.

After the dress fitting, my friends head to Ski Dubai. I enter my mum's car because we are having a family dinner.

My siblings are here with some of their friends and my dad arrived earlier today.

"So I hope you and Liam are using protection since you know, you're still youn-"

"Mum!" I cut her off.

"What? I'm your mother. We need to talk about this stuff." She laughs.

"I'm a virgin," I tell her.

"What?" She asks looking at me with shock.

"Stop looking at me like that. You're the one that kept telling me to wait."

When my mum started giving me the talk, she always emphasized how great it is to save yourself for marriage.

"Yes, but I didn't think you would listen. I mean, look at Austin." She says.

I just shrug and lean my head against the chair.

"But-"

"I really don't want to discuss this, mum."

"Fine, okay."

****

"I just think it's weird," Austin says.

I look at him and smile. "Are you going to miss me?"

"Do I even have a choice?" He rolls his eyes.

"I think you getting married bothers dad the most. He's just trying to play it cool." Mae chuckles.

Dad smiles at her. "Your sister is lucky that she's getting married to Liam. If it was another guy, I wouldn't have allowed the marriage to take place this soon." He says.

"Really?"

He nods at me. "You're still very young."

"I'm twenty-one." I push my hair aside.

"Age is just a number, pumpkin. What matters is this." He gently taps my brain.

"So you're saying I'm immature? Some twenty-one-year-olds have kids and lots live on their own." I say, slightly getting pissed.

I hate how he always looks at me like I'm just a little girl. I get that it's a dad thing but whatever.

"That's my point. You're not like most twenty-one-year-olds. You and Liam both. You get everything done for you. He doesn't even have a real job. He lives off his dad."

Liam might be just four months older than me but he is very mature and it's sexy.

"He has money if that's what you're worried about." I roll my eyes.

"Money will never be a problem for the Blacks, honey as it won't be for this family." Dad states.

I shrug and take a bite of my steak.

Mae fake gags. "How can you eat that?"

I give her a look. "Keep your vegan thoughts to yourself."

"Mum!" Austin complains.

She looks up from her phone. "Yes?"

"We're at a family dinner. Can't you drop your phone for some time?" He frowns.

"I'm sorry. I'm just so busy with getting things ready for your sister's wedding. Were you saying something?" She asks him softly.

He just shakes his head. "What time is this dinner ending anyway? I wanna go hang out with my friends." He says.

"So do you have a girlfriend?" Dad asks him.

"So dad, now that Amelia is leaving, is Austin going to be your new favorite?" Mae asks.

I chuckle. "What?"

"I don't have a favorite," Dad tells her.

"Yes, you do. I'm mum's favorite and Amelia is yours."

"No, I'm not."

"You are." Austin nods.

"You are all my favorites. Amelia and I have a special bond because she's my first child, Austin you're my only son and Mae, you are my baby girl. I love all of you."

"We love you, dad." We all say at once.

"And you too, mum." I wink at her.
