AN: I haven't decided yet how many chapters this will be but I'm sure that I'm not yet done with it. If you guys have some suggestions of what you want to happen, just leave a review/comment and I will try to figure something out. Thank you for your lovely reviews! It was the first thing that I saw when I woke up this morning, that's why this chapter is added immediately.
AN2: I haven't started on chapter 3 yet but I have ideas on what will happen. Also, the following chapters will also be short, ranging from 1k-2k probably, because I'm afraid that I will derail from the focus of the chapter if I keep it too long. I'm not sure if this chapter is a little bit messy, I'll let you judge that, and please don't hesitate on giving me criticism (just be gentle I guess.). Anyways, off you go.
As soon as Miranda sat down on the chair, she sighed, god I've missed her. She placed her hand on top of Andy's own. "Darling I'm so sorry."
Andy stared back at her with a confused look on her face, "what?" I'm going to kill Nigel, "why?" Her voice waivered just a little but enough for Miranda to notice.
Andy dared to look at her friend's left ring finger and she could hear her heart breaking as soon as she saw the ring. She pulled back her hand hastily and placed it on her lap while trying to breathe and not to fidget. "You...uh...how's Nick?"
The look of hurt on Miranda's face was evident, "I didn't come here to have a conversation about my soon-to-be ex fiancé."
"Y-you're not g-gonna follow through with the wedding?" Andy would've laughed by now about the tension surrounding them. There were so many things left unsaid but right at that moment, she realized that fear of the unknown was holding them both back from getting what they want.
Miranda shrugged and looked away shyly, "I would rather have you there with me than that boring man." Suddenly, Miranda looked at her with annoyance and frustration, "at first he was acceptable and I did enjoy his company, but darling believe me when I say you don't want to spend four hours with him. His blabbering is worse than yours. I don't know what he swallowed to become such a-" she narrowed her eyes at the smiling woman in front of her, "I don't see anything amusing at all!"
Andy let out a chuckle and sighed, "you tend to rant to me when you can't complain about something or you can't verbally discuss your opinions as soon as you have them."
She received a 'hmm' in response, "you do find it amusing when I'm all worked up. I should hate you for that."
Andy smiled sweetly, "but you can't. And you won't."
Miranda softened her features as she looked back at her but Andy knew this was where they both would get serious, "you're right." She nodded, "I can't and I won't. Because I love you. I'm in love with you." The journalist was secretly grateful for the isolation they have at the restaurant as she could feel the tears welling up in her eyes. "Darling, you're the only one I want. And I feel so embarrassed that it took me Nigel and the twins to admit my feelings for you."
Andy's eyes widened at the mention of the twins, and Miranda chuckled, "a week after the engagement, the twins sat me down, literally, and they gave a very lengthy speech on why I should marry you and not Nick."
"Oh my god what did they say?" Andy laughed.
"They said, and I quote 'as much as we respect your decision mom, we love you enough to tell you that you're making a big mistake.' I sat there, completely and utterly speechless the whole time they were talking. After that, I sent Nick somewhere and told him I needed time. The girls also told me of everything they would have with you and not with Nick."
The brunette cringed, "you did not ground them did you?"
Miranda laughed softly before she rolled her eyes at the accusation, "of course I did not. Although I might have taken some privileges."
They were enveloped with silence, staring at one another trying to convey all their thoughts and emotions without having to say them out loud. Andy chose to end all their hesitations and broke the silence as she grasped Miranda's hand on the table, "I love you too."
Andy was rewarded with the most beautiful smile she had ever seen when Miranda stood up and tugged at her hand. They stood a few inches from each other when Miranda cupped her cheeks, "I would love to kiss you right now but I don't think it will be good for both of us. But as soon as I end the engagement with Nick," Miranda leaned into her ear and whispered as shivers ran down Andy's spine, "I will show you how much I love you and I will make sure that you remember nothing but my name."
Getting the reaction she wanted, she smirked, "now let's go home. I believe there are two girls who are very eager to have a movie night." Miranda turned and walked away.
Leaving an aroused and bewildered Andy behind. The brunette shook her head and rushed towards Miranda, "you are so evil, you know that?"
Once they were out of the restaurant, Miranda looked back at her as she slid her sunglasses on her face, "now I wouldn't be the Devil in Prada if I'm not evil, now would I?"
They got into the waiting car and Andy couldn't help but to laugh, thank god I love this woman. She blindly reached for Miranda's hand and gave it a gentle squeeze, telling her that everything will be perfect.
When they reached the townhouse, they walked together with their hands intertwined before two sets of arms tackled them with such force. Miranda immediately slip an arm around Andréa's waist to steady both of them before narrowing her eyes towards her girls, "is there a need for you to gallop around the house?"
The twins giggled before muttering an apology to their mother. "We're waiting here for so many hours already!" Caroline whined.
"And you told us that you're gonna have 'the talk' with Andy, so," Cassidy shrugged.
When they walked towards the den to get some rest before dinner, Miranda stopped Andy and sighed, "I still have time before Maggie will be ready with dinner, I might as well get this over with." She saw the look of uncertainty on the brunette's eyes and cupped her cheek, "I will be back darling, I promise you that. After all this, I'm all yours. I promise." Miranda leaned in and gave her a gentle kiss on the lips before moving to say goodbye to her girls.
Andy walked her towards the door and took a deep breath, "Be safe and call me when it's done."
After a final nod, Miranda stepped out of the house and smiled, she loved that Andréa had her own way of showing that she did love her, and she wouldn't want it any other way. Now she just hope that everything will run smoothly so she could spend the rest of her night with the three girls she loved oh so dearly.
AN: Is it too slow? Or too fast? I'm not really sure, but I promise you they will get to the part of happily ever after, tho I'm giving you a heads up now that this won't go up to rated M. Leave your thoughts please
