The next day was here. Today is location searching. I'm sitting in the car waiting for my parents to call me in. They're inside a building that could be the spot for the wedding. From the outside, it looks grand enough for a royal wedding. I get a text to tell me to come in. While I step out of the car, Capricorn does the same, being my guide to the entrance. When we are there, two large mahogany doors stand, Capricorn opening the door to reveal a large sanctuary, with seats flowing down to circulate the center podium. There were glass windows at the top near the ceiling bringing in the natural light into the place. I walk in astonishment with the place, I walk down the aisle, my hand gently brushing against each row of seats. I twirl around, taking every little detail that it presents. I stop and steady myself, closing my eyes, feeling the wind circle around me. I take in the quietness, appreciating it. There are no expectations, no nagging, nothing as if my worries had disappeared into thin air. But that was certainly broken by the loud entrance of chatting adults.

"Lucy there you are. How do you like the place?" Mom makes her way towards me, her voice echoing in this empty place. Dad stays behind talking about the contract with the property owner.

"To be honest, it's breathtakingly beautiful. It's something out of a fairy tale." I pause to now contradict my good comments. "But on the other hand, don't you think it's too big. It has two floors full of pews."

She ignores the comment and tells Dad that I've approved of the place. Before I get to decline and interfere, they sign the contract with lightning speed, making me turn to dust, allowing this place to be my grave. The property owner skips out of the place happily since he sealed a deal, them gaining profit. As for my parents, they show me around the rest of the place that I haven't explored or even knew was there. They show me a grand dining hall, a ballroom, and a garden. I felt like I was a princess in a castle. Seeing every room in all its glory made me feel like royalty. But that was just a fantasy I can only dream of, as reality was cruel and merciless. I smile as I admire all the detail that was put into building this place. I believed that Capricorn stated it was an old, rich Victorian house. But as soon as my happiness came, reality struck harder. This is not going to be happy for me whatsoever, I'm getting married. Everyone will be satisfied as Natsu and I are putting on masks to keep everyone happy. Maybe that's why Natsu acts the way he does. We will wear masks for the wedding and maybe beyond that. There's no telling if we'd be genuinely satisfied with each other. I mean he has Lisanna, even though I don't like her, he will be happy with her.

Deep in thought, I made up my mind. I'll take matters into my own hands and do it my way, this is my life. I excuse myself as I walk outside into the garden. I lean against a pillar and breathe deeply, exhaling all the stress and anxiety I had, I clear my head and head back inside. I discussed the colors and decided to go with red, pastel pink and white, somewhat taking into consideration Natsu's choices. I would love to have blue or yellow, but this will be better, especially with my dress.

We head home and I instantly head to Dad's office. Sitting in Dad's comfy, boss chair, I spread out wedding catalogs, a note pad, and a pen. Clicking it onto the table, catalog after catalog, I circle items that catch my attention, taking into consideration the price and amount. I was so focused, I didn't hear Dad come in. He was holding two cups of tea, steam coming off of them.

"You talk about me being focused on work, and here you are, you didn't hear me come in." He sets a mug in front of me, making me set down the pen and catalogs.

"Thanks and this is a one-time thing." I take a sip as he sits down.

"You might be doing this when you take over the company." I make a salute gesture, returning back to work.

"So you're taking this literally."

I nod my head, "I decided to not wait for something to happen. I decided to grasp it into my own hands, shaping my future however I please.

Satisfied with my answer, he takes a sip of his tea, getting up and heading to the door.

"Well then, I'll leave you. You'll do great." He then leaves, heading upstairs to the bedroom.

I calculate the total amount of the supplies and count all the items, writing the prices next to them. I close the last catalog, stacking them into a pile. I click the pen and stretch my bones. I glance at the clock to see it's a quarter to 10. I take a quick shower and sit onto my bed. I pick up the little notebook and check off another box. I get up, heading to a calendar hanging onto my wall. I take a red marker and cross off another day. I crawl under my covers, turning off my lights. Happy is already fast asleep, as I stare at the ceiling. I close my eyes and instantly fall asleep.

'Six more days left until the wedding.'
