This is my first fanfic so PLEASE DON'T KILL ME! Some criticism to help improve it would be much appreciated though. Thanks for taking your time to read this. :) – Thanks, Jasmine
It was almost my wedding day. All the plans had been done and my fiancée and I loved eachother dearly. The dreams had almost stopped. I stopped remembering a boy with a sore knee playing in the snow, kissing the lips of a dusty lifeless figure, and watching a dead man play the accordion. I still had Max and Alex Steiner however and they helped me through the days where I remembered everything. I checked the plans with the wedding designer and thanked her for all her help. She nodded to me and presented me with a glass of champagne before we talked it over. It brought back memories of an accordion and the smell of paint.
"Your dress should be ready tomorrow," she said, sipping her wine gracefully.
"Thank you once again, but I should really be going home now." I knew this was going to be a bad day. The tightening in my chest told me so.
Keeping the smile on my face, I was getting married after all; I thanked her once again and went home.
When I got home I immediately rang Max.
"I need to get away Max," I said quickly, "I need to take a break."
"But why, Liesel," he asked, "You're getting married in a few weeks."
"I need to visit them."
Max understood. I knew he would. I needed to see Rudy and my Papa and Mama. I need to talk to them and have them comfort me.
"What about Jonathan?"
The mention of my husband worried me. I knew that he'd worry and want to come with me, but I had to face this alone.
"I'll talk to him and explain everything." I assured Max.
"Then Liesel, I'll take you."
I knew I wouldn't convince him otherwise. Max was too stubborn.
"Alright," I sighed, "I'll talk to you later then."
"You don't seem too happy about me coming with you." I heard the smile in his voice as he teased me.
"Bye Max," I answered, ignoring his comment.
And before he could answer, I hung up the phone.
