Pushing Ricardo away from her Gabby stops him from touching her making him frown but before he could protest, she puts her finger on his lips as she speaks.
"You need to go, we have a big day tomorrow and I am having a girl's night they are waiting for me" she announces making him groan.
"Can you not stay with me for few more minutes?" he asks burying his head on her neck.
"I will after tomorrow, don't you have some boy's night our or something?" she teases him.
"We did, but no one wanted to stay the night our drunk away from their women"
"Aww, poor you. Get you beauty sleep and look handsome as hell for me" she requests making him sigh.
"Maybe I can crash the girl's night out, get some make up or tips for that" he asks making her laugh.
"Pink is not your color" she whispers kissing on his jaw.
"Anything else then" he groans as her lips touches the side of his neck.
"White, I will wear all white for you" she informs making him groan.
"I cannot wait for tomorrow to happen" he sighs as she lets go of his neck.
"Just tonight and then all of my nights are yours" she promises.
"Okay no fucking on the door way" Naomi's shout makes they turn around as she pushes past them unlocking the door of the room as she enters it.
"Naomi" Ricardo acknowledges her.
"If I do not get laid then you cannot as well. By the way, your brother is not gay, is he?" Naomi asks him.
"I will see you tomorrow, love you" Ricardo kisses on Gabby's forehead as he ignores her, and Gabby grabs his hand holding him back before slowly letting him go.
"You, tell me the secret of yours?" Naomi wraps her arm around Gabby as she pulls her in the room.
*******
"Knock it off" Naomi grumbles as she pushes Videl's hand away as she sits next to the girl who pouts.
"I get it you are engaged to the most impossible man in the world but do not rub it in our faces, my fashion sense, ego and my heart are brutally bruised" she states as she puts her leg on Summer thighs as she lies dramatically.
"All she can think is about Richard these days" Summer points.
"I think he is gay, I mean I was literally naked in from of him, trying to seduce him and what does I get in return?
That he does not have any cold medicine, well the only thing cold in my life is his dick" she grumbles as she grabs the drink and gulps on it.
"Well fuck it and every dick I ever tried to taste, this right here is the night I announce that I Naomi Storm shall never chase a dick in my life as I am an..."
"Oh, hey Richard..." Roux speaks, and Naomi stops her speech as she turns around to look at the door to see it closed while Roux laughs.
"So much for not chasing a dick" she teases, and Naomi kicks her.
"You are such a bitch"
"But I am not a bitch in heat as you" she winks, and Naomi rolls her eyes.
"Stop you two and it's okay Naomi, maybe he is not into you"
"Summer shut up it's not your season yet" Naomi shuts her sister.
"Hey, stop bullying her" Leah hits on Naomi's foot and the girl groans.
"And, men are sometimes difficult and as for Richard well you should know if you don't that, he is a widow and maybe he is still in a mourning phase" Tulip informs.
"A what?" Naomi gasps as she was unknown about it.
"Wow, a widow damn Nams, first gay and now a widow well you sure know to choose them" Roux points out.
"Well I don't care if he is a widow, he can mourn on my body, but the thing is he is not" she sighs.
"What if he is not over her?"
"Then I will be sure to be all over him" Naomi vows before she smiles at Videl who passes her a shot and she takes it.
********
"Stop giving her drinks" Gabby pulls Videl to her side who was passing drinks to Naomi nonstop.
"Wa" she shrugs her shoulders before she grabs the chocolate and eats it.
"Well men are like that, sometimes even they themselves do not know what they want. I had to wait for such a long time before Damon finally came to the realization I was worth the fight" Tulip informs them.
"Well Tutu, I love you but let's all agree on the fact that my brother was an asshole, I still cannot believe you gave in so easily to him" Gabby points out making Tulip laugh.
"Would you ever give away the chance to be with Ricardo if he did something like that?" she asks Gabby who thinks for a moment.
"My Rare, nah the chances of me doing that to him is greater than him doing so"
"What about Melissa?" Bo asks before Tulip hisses at her and she cringe as she apologizes to Katie who waves her hand.
"I am over it, I have better things than to think about her" Katie smiles and Bo gives her a thumbs up before kicking Gabby to answer.
"Well, let's just say that woman made him love me even more" Gabby smiles.
"Yeah" Lily nods her head sipping on her juice.
"What are you saying yeah at? You went and just shocked all of us, like really you let Throne to grow something in you" Gabby scoffs and Lily blushes.
"Oh well, he is just so handsome" Lily shyly whispers.
"Ugh and you could not just say no to him. Just know he ended up marrying you else...just" Gabby takes a deep breath.
"Well about that" Lily puts her drink down and everyone turns to stare at her.
"What?"
"It's not Throne but me"
"What?"
"I wanted to know about sex so" she confesses.
"Shut the door on Summer's face" Naomi gasps.
"Oh, this is Gold" Bo claps her hands.
"No" Videl gasps as she puts both her hands on her cheeks and stares at Lily who covers her face.
"I knew the shy are always kinky" Bo laughs while Gabby stares at her sister stunned.
*******
"Okay, now on more serious note. Have you done it with Russo yet?" Bo asks Gabby who rolls her eyes.
"Of course, not" she slaps on Bo's hand.
"Virgin" Bo laughs.
"Slut" Gabby jabs back.
"At least I know the taste"
"Ewe, that's my fucking brother" Gabby groans covering her ears.
"Oh yep, fucking your brother" Bo laughs before squealing as Gabby hits her with the cushion.
"Roux here is virgin as well but cannot say anything on Summer, I mean I wonder the times she accidentally fell on Lance's dick" Naomi comments before Roux pushes her away.
"Shut it, at least no one turned gay on me" Roux scoffs.
"And Lance is a gentleman" Summer mutters pouting.
"Oh yeah, of course we all know how much of a gentleman he is. If checking your ass when you turn is one" Roux rolls her eyes.
"Well what do you expect people to see when one turns around?" Summer grumbles.
"Leave her alone" Leah laughs.
"Well sorry Mrs. Lucero if we offend you by talking bad about your brother-in-law, you Lucero fucker" Naomi grumbles.
"What?" Leah laughs.
"So, on the count from five to ten, how good of a lover is he?" Bo asks wiggling her brow at Leah who waves her hand.
"Tell us" Naomi hits on Leah's arm.
"As Summer said, even Leon is a gentleman" she states and Roux gasps.
"You have not done it with him" Roux jumps in and Leah keeps quiet.
"Damn, my, my you all have not an ounce of shame to actually admit that" Naomi shakes her head.
"Oh please as if you know what sex is like, you can fool the whole world but not me. FYI, she is still a virgin no matter what she says" Roux scoffs and Naomi swipes her hair away.
"Well at least I can boast I have seen and touched a dick"
"Didlo, it's called didlo" Roux mutters and Naomi glares at her sister.
"Shut up" Naomi shouts at her twin.
*******
"Well it's nice that your husband is giving you space" Tulip smiles as she touches Leah's hand before all eyes jumps on her.
"Why?" Gabby tilts her head.
"Sex, uh, well it sounds fun and all which is not. Sometimes it will be difficult" Tulip starts before stopping to watch the girls faces, she clears her throat before she continues on the topic.
"What I mean is, if it's done with the person you know or are comfortable or in my case with someone I love, it's beautiful...
But there are times I don't want to do it"
"Did Damon force you?" Naomi narrows her eyes and Leah laughs shaking her head.
"No, no...God no. He understands, there are days where he wants to do it, but I don't and he persuades me but if I say no, he gets it though he will sulk...
But he gets it that I am not in mood. So, what I am saying is, even it's a natural thing between a man and woman, the first time you do it...
You feel weird and it's like something shifts inside of you but your partner the right person will know how to make you feel good and care for you...
So, I suggest don't hurry. You all may be curious on it, but don't hurry. It's better to not do it than to regret doing it and be scare of it...
I mean, I am sure Katie, Lily and Bo will agree with me on this. Uhm, if your partner is not careful then it will turn out to be just that sex...
But what makes it beautiful is the way they handle you, the way they make you feel afterwards" Tulip finishes and the girls' frown.
"I agree, well I think I am the only one who had more experience in this department so let me tell you, sex with Gage is different than compared to all of the previous one without him...
With him it's like a connection, because I know he will be there when I wake up or when I don't want it. Like it's warm with him and cold with others" Bo shrugs her shoulders.
"I feel useless" Naomi sighs as she thinks on what they said.
"And I feel scared" Gabby gulps.
"It will be fine, what Tutu here wants you all to know it. With the right person you will see the difference. So, just don't have sex for the sake of it"
"How will we know who is right?" Roux asks curiously.
"He will understand that no means no" Katie replies, and she nods her head.
"No?" Videl frowns as that is the only word she knows.
"NO" she gasps in shock.
"Well except you Videl, I think Nicholson will know the difference of your no"
"Oh" she grins giving them a thumbs up nodding her head.
*******
"Okay well let us all move on from that topic to the more important one" Gabby claps her hands.
"What?"
"Well, I have thought that all of you should be my bridesmaid tomorrow"
"Oh no, not with this" Tulip laughs rubbing her belly.
"Aww, but I do want my niece or nephew to be there"
"They will but sitting not walking"
"Yeah I am sorry Gabs, I will pass as well" Lily sighs.
"Okay, well except you two all of you must"
"But"
"Not buts Leah and anyways Lilac is the flower girl. Ricardo and I, we both agree. Just as her name represents a beautiful flower, she is the flower girl and I hope we did not corrupt her" Gabby smiles apologetically to Lilac who has been sitting silently with a cushion clutched in her hands.
"I am good" she smiles.
"If Liam did not corrupt her already" Bo winks her way and Lilac blushes.
"It's not like that"
"Then do tell us how it is, he has this expression on his face saying back off from her, don't breathe the same air as her whenever he is around you"
"Well he just cares"
"I would like someone to care for me just like that" Naomi sighs as she pouts while Lilac remains quiet as the girl spends the night talking and gossiping before the big day arrives.
*******
Gabby takes a deep breath as she stares at herself in the mirror before she turns around as the door opens and her mother walks in.
"Is everything set?" she questions as she runs her hand through her dress and Amelia nods her head walking towards Gabby.
"You look just as your Ricardo calls, precious" Amelia smiles and Gabby hugs her mother tightly.
"It's scary" Gabby confesses as she keeps hugging her mother.
"It's going to be fine, trust me. You both love each other, and I know you will find a way" she cups Gabby's face before kissing on her forehead.
"Can I come in? Is she all dressed?" Gage asks as he walks in the room covering his eyes with his hand.
"You already are in" Gabby chuckles and he grins as he looks at her.
"Mom, I am finding Gabs beautiful, is it because now she is getting married and getting out of our lives?" Gage asks as he wraps his arms around Amelia and Gabby hits him.
"Can you not be an asshole for once?" she rolls her eyes and he shake his head no.
"Can't do that, you are still my big sis so" he grins before he pulls her hair Gabby gasps as she searches for something to hit him, but he wraps his arms around her from behind and takes a deep breath.
"I will miss annoying you whenever I want to" he confesses and Gabby smiles as she touches his head, ruffling his hair a bit.
"Are you going to cry?" she teases, and he shakes his head no without a word and Gabby coos.
"Hey, I am the only one allowed to cry today which I refuse so, cheer up. Cry when mom marries you off" she states which sobers him up.
"Marry me off?" he frowns as he stares at his mother.
"Of course, you think only girls have to leave their house. Nuh-uh, it's 2019 brother, now parents kick their sons out as well after they are married" she grins as she watches Gage eye widen.
"No way am I getting married then"
"Oh, don't worry, with Bo's income she can look after your expenses" Gabby grins patting on his shoulder.
"Mom" Gage groans while both Amelia and Gabby laughs at his whining.
*******
"All set?" Ricardo asks as soon as Richard walks in the room. He buttons his sleeves button and when no replies come from Richard, he raises his head to watch his brother.
"Rich?" Ricardo calls and Richard closes the door before staring at Ricardo flushed.
"Hmm?"
"What's wrong?" Ricardo asks him.
"That girl, she has been hogging and nagging me and I swear I am losing my shit"
"Or touch?"
"What?" Richard frowns.
"She likes you" Ricardo sighs grabbing his tie.
"Well I don't care" he groans as he walks towards the chair and sits.
"Dating again will not..."
"I don't want to talk about it. I think I will skip the wedding and just hang in your room" he states.
"No, you are not" Ricardo chuckles before their eyes goes towards the door when there is a knock.
"Shit tell her I am not here" Richard curses as he looks around the room.
"Rick, can I come in?" Alana's voice makes Richard sigh in relief.
"It's mom" Richard grins as he walks to open the door.
*******
"What are you doing here not dressed?" Alana asks as soon as she sees Richard.
"He had a situation" Ricardo comments as he walks to kiss his mother on the cheeks.
"What situation?" Alana asks and Richard glares at his brother shaking his head no.
"Nothing much, where's dad?" he asks.
"Greeting the guests with Gabriel. Now, let me look at you" Alana smiles as she touches his shoulders and stares at him.
"He looks ugly" Richard comments before dodging Alana's hand.
"That's rude. I don't have ugly sons, none of that" she smiles before fixing Ricardo's tie on place.
"You missed the point mom, he may be referring to himself when he looks mirror everyday" Ricardo chuckles as he turns Alana around at once as Richard goes to jump on him.
"Behave, it's his wedding. I don't want to see all of your clothes get dirty because you both started tumbling on the ground fighting"
"Does that mean we can do that once the wedding it off?" Richard asks with a smirk and Alana frowns.
"Well, the only tumbling I see him doing is with Gabby in his room with locked doors. Seems like we need someone else for you to tumble as well" Alana pats on Richard's cheek as she starts to collect Ricardo discarded clothes while both her sons stand stunned at her words.
********
Lilac fixes her hair before she walks to the bed where Liam was laying on scrolling through his phone she taps on his leg before showing her back to him. He sighs putting the phone away before zipping her dress.
"I put your clothes out for you, you should get dressed. We will miss the wedding" she points out as she bends to pull her shoes out and Liam groans as he lies back on the bed.
"Liam, please. I need to go see if they need my help"
"Help?" he asks putting the phone away and she nods her head.
"I am the flower girl" she states making him frown.
"Whatever"
"It's not whatever, I cannot wait to walk down the altar I am nervous, what if I fall down and everyone laugh?" she pouts as he pulls his t-shirt off.
"Then I will make they cry" he grumbles as he pulls his shirt off and starts to put it.
"No don't fight" she mumbles as she clips her shoes and shows him his dress.
"Are they going to put make up on you?" he asks as he buttons his pants and pulls the zipper before looking around for his tie.
"Well..."
"Don't, you will look too mature to be a flower girl"
"Okay, so can I go now?" she asks as she holds her purse.
"Where will you put your purse if you have to carry a basket with flower?" he asks, and she sighs.
"Leave it here, I will grab it for you and don't wonder off alone" he speaks as he puts his hand out for her to pass the purse before she says bye to him.
"Wait" he stops her.
"What is it?" she asks wondering if she forgot to take out anything for him.
Liam walks towards his suitcase before he opens the bag and pulls out a box, he closes his bag to walk towards her.
"Turn around" he asks, and she does without a word.
Lilac feels something cold touch her neck before she touches the necklace he clipped around her neck.
"It come with ear rings though I don't think it's necessary" he states as he turns her around to face him and stares at her neck.
"Don't make me regret not walking you out" he points before she nods her head and walks out of the door.
*******
Leah grabs Leon's coat before handing it to him with a smile, she waits as he pulls it around him before grabbing her purse.
"I will be in Gabby's room" she informs him, and he nods before spraying the perfume.
"Will you walk down the altar?" he asks as he grabs his shoes and sits on the edge of the bed.
"She did ask but I don't know, not exactly bridesmaid dress" she touches her dress.
"Ah, you girls do follow a code when it comes to dressing up" he teases making her chuckle.
"Though Lilac is a flower girl"
"Lilac? And Liam said yes?" he frowns not knowing about it.
"Strangely, he did"
"Well you girls have fun then, is there anything you need?" he asks getting up from the bed.
"No"
"Good and if you do decide to walk down just remember I will be imagining our wedding day when you walked towards me" he states as he grabs his wallet and phone before turning her way.
"Uhm"
"Come on, let me walk you to her door before waiting for you" he smiles as he grabs her hand and she follows him out of the room.
"You did not say how do I look though" she points as they walk out of the room.
"You are my wife, that is the only compliment I can think of whenever I look at you"
"I don't know if I should feel ecstatic or sad about it"
"Proud, that is what I feel when I see you so let's say yes to that" he whispers in her ear teasingly and Leah blushes a bit as she squeezes his hand.
