Chapter 87

Liam's POV

The next day, we checked out of the hospital when the doctor said she's good to go. Sophie's arrival with my mother-in-law was perfect timing. We all went home together, and Sophie was like a mother goose, attending to all her mother's needs.

She's watching her mom like a hawk. She said she doesn't want her mom to feel tired because her baby brother will get tired too inside her tummy. She was so adorable and sweet. I am pretty sure she will be a doting sister when her sibling comes out.

One more day and it's our wedding day. Everyone was so busy, and all the tables and chairs were being delivered, and the lake was filled with flowers and came to life. I didn't let Bella come out of the room or out of bed.

I want her well-rested and in good shape on our wedding day. My mom contacted makeup artists on the day of the wedding, and someone came from a salon to give Bella a mani and Pedi and cut and colored her hair. She was pampered the whole day, and I can see that she was enjoying it.

Tonight I will be sleeping at our house while she will be sleeping in our bed alone. Our parent's aid we have to follow the tradition shall not see each other until the wedding day. We both protested, but our moms strongly declined our pleas.

I am in my room at the moment staring at the ceiling. It's still 4 pm, exactly three hours since I last saw my fiance, and I am missing her already. I will go crazy if I can't even talk to her. So, I grabbed my phone and texted her.

They didn't say anything about texting or calling, so I guess it's okay to text her. I am thinking of a flirty text to make her smile.

" Hey, baby, can I borrow a kiss? I promise I will give it back." I texted and sent with a kiss emoji.

" Baaaabe, I miss you already. Can you sneak out of there and come here? I am bored and missing you badly." She replied, and I am almost tempted to do exactly what she asked.

" I know, baby. I miss you too, but let's allow our mothers this one last time, okay? After tomorrow, we will never part for the rest of our lives." I texted back to her.

" But how can I sleep tonight? I got used to you beside me, holding me." She complained. Ever since she got pregnant, she has been very clingy and sweet, and I love it.

" One night, baby, one night. Then we will have all the nights together." I  replied.

" I just want to be curled up in your arms right now, babe." She answered back. I wanted so bad to go and hold her, but we have to follow our moms.

" Baby, you're making it so hard for me. There's nothing I want more than to be with you, but we have to endure, baby. I can't wait for tomorrow and see you in your wedding dress. I think I'll die of anticipation." I texted back.

" Me too, babe. Can't wait to see I do and be officially Mrs. Liam Jones." She replied, and I smiled. Then my mom knocked on my door and peeked in.

" Liam, we need you downstairs, son. The caterer wants to ask you something, and the cake is here too. Everything has to be ready for tomorrow. I don't know why you two chose a 6 am wedding." She mumbled and shook her head.

" Because it's the perfect time for the sunrise, mom. It symbolizes new hope, new life for us. " I explained to her, and she smiled at me, finally understanding the concept behind the time we chose to wed.

" Alright then, let's go. People are waiting downstairs, and your best men will be arriving shortly. I've prepared the guest rooms, and dinner will be served by the pool tonight. We'll have a barbecue and steak, but you can't drink. I don't want you to have hungover on your wedding day." She reminded me, and I nodded at her.

" I know, mom. We'll probably sleep early tonight so that I will be at my nest tomorrow. I only get married once. I want it to be as perfect as possible." I told her. We went out of my room and went down to meet the caterers and check the lake's arrangements.

It's getting dark now, but the lake area is filled with lights, and people are running here and there, so busy preparing for tomorrow. The caterer wanted to confirm some of the ideas she has for the buffet table and the number of guests.

Then the wedding planner wanted confirmation for the arch that they made near the water—the chairs and flowers' positions and a lot more. My phone buzzed in my pocket. I forgot to say goodbye to Bella a while ago because my mom suddenly showed up.

" Are you busy, babe? What are you doing now? Are you asleep?" She texted, and I laughed at her questions.

" I'm sorry, baby. Mom showed up and asked me to come down because the caterer and the wedding planner are looking for me. We're down by the lake, babe, still doing last-minute decorating and arranging." I texted back to her.

" How I wish I were there to see all of that. I want to help too." She replied.

" I know, babe. But I want this to be a surprise for you. I know you will love the arrangements we made here. I want to give you the most beautiful wedding and make you love me more." I teased her and press send.

" I don't think I could love you even more than I already have, babe. I can't wait for tomorrow. I Gotta go, babe. Mom's calling me. My bridesmaids are here, and we're going to have dinner. Sophie is more excited than me, by the way. Ahe's wearing her gown to sleep, she said." I laughed at her last words.

Of course, our little Princess is the happiest person at this moment. I remembered she said her favorite Prince and Princess are finally getting married and live happily ever after. She watched too much of Cinderella and Snow White that she thought we are one of her characters.

" Haha, don't I know that, baby. She's been waiting for this day since we announced that we are getting married. Go and eat, baby. I gotta go as well. My groomsmen just arrived. I love you, baby." I replied.

" I love you more, babe." She texted back, and I smiled. I went back to the house to entertain my groomsmen and get ready for dinner. Few more hours, and I will be marrying the girl of my dreams.
