Bonus 8: The Cake

Nina

As I swirled the final dollop of icing atop the cake, the doorbell chimed, announcing the arrival of our first guest. The warmth of anticipation ignited in my chest. I dusted off my hands and went to greet them.

Before I could even open the door, Jessica and Lori burst in.

“Nina!” Jessica exclaimed, brushing past me as she looked around the house. “Holy shit! This place looks so much better!”

I blushed a bit, hugging Lori while Jessica continued to snoop around.” Thanks,” I murmured, walking over to pull Jessica into a tight hug as well. ” It’s finally done. I feel like we can relax now… Sort of.”

“Don’t worry,” Lori chimed in, patting my shoulder. “The wedding will be over soon, too. Then you guys can have your honeymoon. And then you’ll get a whole month before classes start up again.”

I had to laugh. Deep down, I wasn’t sure if I wanted the wedding to be over anytime soon. I loved the process of preparing, the anticipation of it all. It was a feeling that I wanted to cherish.

“Here.” Jessica shoved a bottle of champagne into my hand. There was a bow on the neck of the bottle. “A housewarming gift.”

“More like a belly-warming gift,” Lori teased. “You’ll let us stay here tonight, right?”

I nodded, smiling as I set the bottle down on the counter. “Of course. I wouldn’t let my friends drive drunk.”

Enzo and I had already planned to have most, if not all, of our guests stay the night.

We had prepared with tons of blankets, and even purchased a couple of air mattresses that would certainly come in handy in the future; not to mention our guest bedroom, which was reserved for Lori and Jessica, seeing as how they were the only other couple other than Enzo and I.
