I know I said I was going to make each chapter in one person's point of view, but I thought this chapter should have both Eddie's & Dimitri's point of views.
Chapter 16:
(Eddie P.O.V)
Keeping Rose and Dimitri apart two days before the wedding was Lissa's idea. She thought they shouldn't see each other until then. Let me tell you that trying to keep a Russian God away from his love has been so far very hard. Taking turns staying up and guarding the door and windows, afraid Dimitri will sneak out in the middle of the night to see Rose.
Eating around the dinner table with the guys in my and Jill's apartment while the girls are staying in Rose's and Dimitri's. Taking a fork full of cornbread and chili into my mouth.
"Daddy," Tyler said, sitting on Dimitri's lap. "I have tat?"
"You want strawberry?" Dimitri asked, taking a strawberry from the fruit salad bowl.
Tyler nodded his head as he ate the strawberry.
"Dimitri, are you nervous about the wedding?" Christian asked, whipping his mouth with a napkin.
A few minutes passes before Dimitri said, "No, not really."
"Not a even a little?" I asked him, looking real closely for a sign of nervousness.
Shaking his head no as he helps Tyler butter his cornbread.
I would be nervous if Jill and I were about to get married. Afraid of missing up a word or two, freezing up or sweaty through my suit. This is good practice for when I ask Jill to marry me in the future.
After dinner, we all showered and went to bed, except Makhail. He stayed up and took a position between the door and the living room window. Dimitri, Tyler and I climbed in my bed as Christian slept on the couch.
"Dimitri," I whispered, so I wouldn't wake up Tyler.
"Yes, Eddie?" Dimitri whispered back, turning to face me.
"Are you really nervous about getting married?"
(Dimitri P.O.V)
I said no at the dinner because I didn't much about it. But, now I am kind of nervous.
"A little," I said.
"You and Rose are meant to be," Eddie yawned, closing his eyes.
"Thanks, Eddie," I said, before closing my eyes and going to sleep.
After an hour, I looked at Eddie to see he's completely asleep. Turning over with my back facing him, I pull out my phone from my pants pocket. Having a message from Rose.
Rose: I miss u!
Dimitri: I miss u 2!
Rose: Can u sneak out?
Dimitri: No the guys r taking turns watching the door & windows
Rose: Really?! Same here!
Putting my phone under my pillow as the door to the bedroom opens. Eddie shots up as Christian walked in.
"What are you doing?" Eddie asked him, sternly.
"Your couch is too hard to sleep on," Christian answered, coming over to Eddie's side of the bed.
"No, it's not."
"Is too. Now scoot over."
Eddie sighed before scooting over closer to Tyler to giving Christian room to sleep.
"Stubborn," Eddie said, pulling on the blankets.
"Heard that," Christian snapped.
"Good."
Rolling my eyes at the two of them as I wait a few minutes before pulling my phone back out.
Rose: R the guys getting along?
Thinking about Eddie and Christian fighting over the bed, I replied:
Dimitri: Kind of
Rose: What do u mean kind of?
Dimitri: Eddie & Christian were fighting over the bed
Rose: Boys will b boys lol
Laughing softly to myself as set my phone on the nightstand. Closing my eyes, I fall into a deep sleep.
Thanks(:
