You Belong with Me

Part One - Chapter Sixteen: Jennifer's Wedding

Martha glared at her youngest daughter as she dressed for Jennifer's wedding, she wasn't happy that Elizabeth had paid out for a dress that fitted Alexa; she had hoped the pressure would make her daughter lose weight.

Alexa ignored her mother as she fixed her hair, Cristiano was waiting downstairs for her and she was happy that he was coming to the wedding; he was currently talking to her brothers about football.

Alexa looked down at her purple sweetheart asymmetry lace-up rhinestone sashes dress paired with nude high heels with peep toe; she had to admit even though she didn't really like purple but the dress was pretty.

Elizabeth fussed over Alexa as she snapped a couple of pictures, it was a wonderful day and the photographer wasn't here yet; she couldn't resist since she didn't know when she would be seeing Alexa again.

Martha frowned as she watched, she still didn't like how Dixon had just disappeared and she was sure that Cristiano was behind it.

However she couldn't comment before Jennifer stepped into the room wearing her dress, Martha squealed in excitement as she approached her daughter and started to gush over her.

Alexa sighed, her sister looked beautiful and she had to admit that she was a little jealous of her sister's bond with their mother.

"So how do I look?" Jennifer said posing slightly as Martha fussed all over her, Elizabeth smiled at her who was grinning like an idiot; she looked happy and that was how it was meant to be at a wedding.

"Absolutely beautiful," Martha marvelled moving to make sure that everything was perfect, Jennifer nodded as she looked at her sister; something in her stomach fluttering as if telling her something.

"You look really pretty Lexi," Jennifer said making the family stop what they were doing and look at her shocked; she had never complimented her sister for anything in her life and it was odd she had decided to do so now.

"Thank you?" Alexa replied but it was more of a question, she really didn't know what to say to her sister as Martha stole back her eldest daughter's attention.

Elizabeth smiled at Alexa who was confused, but the blonde smiled before she slipped out of the room seeing that she wasn't needed and headed downstairs to check on her boyfriend.

Martha looked at Jennifer who looked a little upset as Alexa left, she didn't understand what was going on with her daughter; she had never liked her sister before.

"What is wrong with you?" Martha asked making her daughter look at her and shake her head; she would miss her sister, even if she hadn't been the nicest person to her, she wished that she had time to make it right or if it was too late now to do so.

Cristiano couldn't seem to keep his hands off of Alexa, though the press seemed to be only too happy to follow the couple as they walked to the church.

The two ignored them while they walked, it was a beautiful day and Cristiano couldn't help but think that he had the most beautiful woman on his arm for the wedding.

As Jennifer appeared Martha walked passed Alexa offering her a glare; Cristiano rolled his eyes at the dress that she had decided to wear; it wasn't something that someone would wear to church or a wedding.

Alexa pressed another kiss to his lips and Cristiano reluctantly released her before she slipped away to see her sister and father; she had to walk down the aisle first then she could sit beside him.

Cristiano sighed as he moved to sit next to Alexa's grandparents; he couldn't wait for this today to be over and he could have Alexa to himself until they moved to Madrid.
