ALESSANDRA
Tomorrow I am marrying the love of my life.
After ten years of dating since junior high, to high school and through college, I was finally marrying the man who showed me what love was. Just thinking about it made me so excited.
I could remember those nights I stayed up, imagining getting married to Luke, my one and only love and now, it was becoming real. I was going to be Mrs. Kingston.
“Look at you, blushing and shit.”
I snapped out of my deep, dreamy thoughts at the sound of my best friend's voice. I turned my head and smiled at her while giving out a dreamy sigh.
“But seriously, I can't believe you're finally marrying Luke.”
“I know, Carly. I cannot believe it too,” I said, and bit down on my bottom lip. “Also, I can't wait for… you know.”
Carly laughed and sat beside me on the bed. We had just come back from our fun in a club a few minutes ago, which was a way for me to have fun as a single girl for the last time before I got married.
“Wait… I actually forgot you are a virgin,” Carly said and smacked my arm. “Girl, you are in for such a fun night then.”
I waved my hand dismissively at her while smiling and trying to control my expression from being cheeky. I had no experience when it came to the bedroom but the way Luke kissed me and made out with me, I knew he was good in bed and because of that, I couldn't wait to see what it felt like to have s*x with him.
“Don't worry, girl. I will have you looking like a sweet and sexy candy tomorrow night. Luke won't even recognise you by the time I'm done with you,” Carly said, snapping her fingers up and down.
I giggled. “Really?”
“Of course… Don't worry, I'll handle everything. All you have to do right now,” she said while standing from my bed. “Is sleep because tomorrow…”
I watched as Carly walked over to my wedding gown that was hanging on the wall. She took it off the hook and placed it against her body while smiling at me.
“Tomorrow, you will look like the most beautiful bride in the world,” she said and twirled around. “You are one lucky girl, Alessandra. Not everyone can date someone for ten years and end happily.”
“I know and each day, I thank the heavens for giving me such a perfect man and also a perfect best friend,” I said and opened my arms for a hug.
Carly hung the gown back and rushed over to me. She wrapped her arms around my shoulders, hugging me tightly. I sighed, feeling warm and comforted in her arms before she pulled away.
“So, bestie. You need to sleep.” She cupped my face. “The last thing we want is for you to have dark circles.”
She got out of my bed and motioned for me to lay down. I shook my head with a scoff and went under my blanket.
“Good night,” she said as she walked over to the door with her bag. “I'll come over first thing in the morning to help you prepare. Now, close your eyes and sleep… See you tomorrow. Love you!”
“Love you too!” I said at the top of my voice and looked away from the door when she left my room.
After some minutes, I heard the door closing then the sound of her car starting and leaving my house. I sighed and stared at the ceiling.
My phone chimed under my pillow and I quickly pulled it out. I smiled when I saw that Luke had texted me.
My Love: I don't know if you're sleeping but if you're not. I want to let you know that I cannot wait for tomorrow when I make you my wife. Good night. I love you. xoxo.
I cupped my cheek as I felt a flutter in my stomach at the text. I nibbled on my bottom lip and poised my thumbs to reply back but paused when an idea popped up in my head.
I sat up and looked at the time on my phone. It was still nine and I was thinking of surprising Luke. I wanted to see him one last time before I became his wife. I wanted to try something exciting. I wanted to make him know I was excited about our wedding night.
With that in mind, I got out of my bed and went over to my closet where I picked out a short dress and a coat. I couldn't wait to give him the surprise of a lifetime.

I made sure to park a little far from his house because I wanted to be certain that he doesn't see him through the windows of his house.
I turned off the car and checked myself in the rear view mirror before getting out. I locked the doors of my car and glanced at his house before adjusting my coat. I took a deep breath and started making my way to his house.
When I got to the front door, I took out my own pair of his house keys and unlocked the door. I slowly opened the door and stepped into the dimly lit living room. I ignored the bottles of wine and cups on the coffee table and took off my shoes.
I took off my coat and started making my way toward his bedroom. The house was quiet as I tiptoed up the stairs and when I got close to his room, my brows furrowed.
My ears perked up when I heard muffled voices and groans. My heart started pounding as I wondered if he was okay. I noticed that the door was slightly opened and I quietly walked forward until I was standing in front of his room.
I peeped into the room and everything around me froze. My heart stopped beating, my lungs tightened and a cold rush went through me.
Right on his bed was Luke and my best friend, having s*x.
