*Ezra POV*

Finally, it was the wedding day. I felt happy, relieved, and relaxed to see the happiness on every face that came to the wedding. Although only family and close friends attended the big day it was still close to 200 people. Everything was arranged keeping Elena's health in mind. After her slipping incident, although nothing happened Aiden didn't want her to exhaust herself. So, it was a close-knit event.

Aiden almost cried on seeing Elena walking down the aisle. Indeed they looked beautiful together. He was so happy and excited that after saying their vows and exchanging the rings he didn't even wait for the priest to say his lines and kissed Elena making everyone laugh. Everybody cheered and clapped for the newlyweds. I too was happy for them. He looked at me and mouthed a 'thank you'. In return, I smiled at him.

I wished them togetherness to infinity.

_______________~•~_______________

I came home rushing back from the wedding. I needed to change and head back to the office because for the last time we all team members are having a meeting before the reception. After taking shower I texted Michael to let him know I will be a little late tonight.

I was happy that I didn't spoil my mood today. Whatever they did behind my back was upsetting but it was for everyone's good. Maybe Aiden and I were not meant to be together. This wedding of my ex made me more mature and patient. After all the drama and showdowns I think I can handle any complications now in my future wedding project.

Dashing towards the door, I quickly went towards my car and left for office.

_______________~•~_______________

When I reached home after the meeting, I was surprised to see Michael standing outside.

"You are on time."

He hugged and kissed me. I blushed making him chuckle.

"I couldn't wait to be honest. So, I came early."

What? He has been waiting for me here at the door.

"How long did you wait?", I asked concerned.

"Not long, 1-hour max."

"What?" I was beyond shocked. I do remember telling him to not wait for me."I told you, Mike, I was going to be late." I told him while we entered inside.

"I know babe, just that, my excitement was killing me." He wrapped his arms around my waist and held me close to him and kissed me.

"Even I was dying to see you". I said trying not to embarrass myself. With that, he kissed me again.

Which was supposed to be a simple kiss turned out to be a whole makeout session. None of us could keep our hands to ourselves. Pulling away from the kiss, "I am hungry." I know this wasn't he was expecting me to say but I was genuinely hungry. He bursts into a fit of laughter.

"What? Why are you laughing?"

"Ez, you just had to ruin the sexy moment didn't you?" He said making my cheeks red.

"I will go make dinner."

"Okay", he said looking with his dreamy eyes. While I was about to pass him, he spanked my ass hard.

"a...A WHAT THE FUCK, MICHAEL ADAMS.."

He turned around and ran towards my room laughing like an idiot.

I made dinner for us. Michael picked some movies in the meantime.

"Dinner's done", I announced.

He helped me placing the dinner on the table. We were both peacefully eating when Michael interrupted. "What do you think about getting married?" I choked on my food and looked at him to check if he was serious or not.

"Umm... I don't know." I said, unsure about how to answer it.

"Okay." And he went back to eating. Is this man crazy? Why is he behaving weirdly?

Not to poke him more, I returned back to eating.

I was cleaning the dishes when Michael came behind and hugged me, swaying me to and fro. I giggled and kissed his cheeks.

"I can hold you like this forever."

"Then who is stopping you." Winking at him, I resumed washing the remaining dishes. I was almost done when an idea popped up in my mind. You are gonna get back Mr. Adams.

I bucked my hip towards his crotch and ground myself against him. Michael tightened his arms around me.

"What are you trying to do Ez?" He whispered in my ear before pecking it.

"Nothing." I innocently smiled at him. I kept my pace and ground against him, feeling his beast getting hard. I felt his hand descending downwards, before he could reach I quickly pushed him away and ran upstairs and locked my bedroom.

I heard heavy steps coming towards the room making me giggle.

"Open the fucking door, Ez! You can't just leave me like that."

"Enjoy your blue balls, Mikey." I knew it would piss him off but that's what he gets for spanking me so hard.

"I will break this door if you don't open it." He kept on banging. I opened the door, he hurled himself on me, pushing me back on the bed. His lips found mine. Soon all our clothes were discarded on the floor and our night went on with innumerous lovemaking.

The next morning I woke up in Michael's arms, the amount of happiness I felt was indescribable. I don't want to wake up from such peaceful sleep and warming body. But today was the final day.

After Michael left I went to the banquet hall to check everything for one last time. Once satisfied with all the arrangements, I went back home to get ready for the reception.

I wore a light blue v neck style indo western gown. I tucked my hair into a messy bun, put on light makeup and nude pumps. I was admiring myself in the mirror when the doorbell rang. It must be Michael. I opened the door and was star struck by him. I never saw him in formal wear but damn he took my breath away. He wore a black tux and gelled his hair back. I am very sure he will be giving tough competition to the groom. Whatever cologne he used was driving me insane and I stood there at the entrance ogling at him.

"Hey, gorgeous. If you are done checking me out then shall we?"

I snapped out of my trance and blushed. "Just a minute. Let me bring my purse and mobile."

I locked the door, sat in his car and soon we hit the road.

"You look hot in this dress, but that dress will look much better on the ground." He shamelessly flirted with me.

"Oh really, did I forget to mention I have no panties on?" Wiggling my eyebrows at him, I could see the amusement on his face.

"You don't stop surprising me, Ms. Sanders."

"Likewise Mr. Adams." I winked at him while he intertwined our hands together and kept it on his lap.

Luckily we didn't get any traffic on the way and just reached there on time. Only a few people have arrived. But they were enjoying their drinks and mingling with each other. Soon lots and lots of people came in. Lastly the newlyweds. The party was going on full swing, people were dancing, drinking, eating, and some were greeting the couple. Michael and I also went to congratulate them.

"Congratulations and happy new life."

"Thanks, Ezra. For everything", said Elena.

"No big deal. It was my job."

"No. Seeing Aiden was already difficult but I made it more difficult for you. Trust me I am very sorry for my actions." Elena became a bit emotional, so, I hugged her.

"Sorry." Now it was Aiden. "I never said that but I mean it. I was wrong to cheat you behind your back. You're a nice soul Ez. I can't thank you enough for saving Elena from the accident."

I took both their hands in mine. "Okay, now enough of these emotional talks. It's your wedding guys. I am not mad at you. Trust me because I have worked my ass off for this wedding. I am very happy for both of you. Look everything happens for a reason." I put Elena's hand on Aiden's. "This was meant to happen." They were happily looking at me.

"Thanks, Ez", said Aiden.

"No thank you for bringing this up. This closure was much needed."

"Congrats", Michael said behind me.

Elena was smiling but Aiden looked happily confused. "Guys this is Michael Adams. My boyfriend. Mike they are.."

"I know them, Ez. After all, they are the stars of the evening."

"Good to meet you man", Aiden said shaking hands with him.

"Same here."

After that, we left the couple with other guests and went to the dance floor. A slow romantic song played in the background. Michael pulled me close to him. He kept his one hand behind my back and the other was holding my hand. While dancing he looked into my eyes and I forgot everything around me. It felt like only two of us were there at the party. Unfortunately, the song ended bringing me back from my trance. I saw Mrs. Mills waving at me. I started walking but he held my wrist, "where are you going?"

"Mrs. Mills is calling me. I will just be back." He nodded and I went where Mrs. Mills and Elle were standing.

"Well done Ezra. Everything went smoothly", said Elle.

"That's why you hired us for Elle".

We talked some more and then I returned to Michael. But he was dancing with some other girl. The song was still playing, so, I didn't interrupt them and stood on the side. The woman looked familiar. Oh, now I remember she is Elena's friend. I met her in the bachelorette. The song ended and she left. I went to the dance floor and joined Michael. "You already ditched your date?"

"What? No. She is just an old friend."

I laughed at the way he was explaining things to me. "Relax Mikey. I was just trying to mess with ya."

"Trust me I will get back at you", he tried to be serious but ended up laughing with me.

We danced, laughed, and enjoyed the rest of the party.

*Kiara POV*

I reached a little late for Elena's reception party. I parked my car and went inside. The party had already started and guests have surrounded the couple, so, I just decided to meet my friends first. I met them and a few more people. I was going to get my drinks when my eyes fell on him. He was looking so breathtaking in formal wear. God really has taken the time to sculpt him. But what was Michael doing here? How Elena or Aiden know him? And most importantly why he was dancing romantically with that wedding planner? What was her name again? Forget it who cares. A lot of questions were going in my mind. I went to the bar and ordered some scotch. I didn't want to feel jealous but I am feeling jealous of looking him with another girl. He only looked at me the way he was looking at her right now. Does he love her? No that can't be. He never went into a relationship after our breakup.

The song ended and the wedding planner left. I took the chance and went to him. I knowingly collided with him, "Sorry I wasn't looking."

"Sorry. Are you okay?", he asked genuinely concerned.

I am okay baby but I still acted surprised, "Mikey."

"Kiara. What are you doing here?"

"Elena is my friend. And you?"

"I came with a close friend."

"Ohh she might be too close. Anyways would you like to dance with me?", I just saw an opportunity.

He looked hesitant. "Come on. It's just a dance. For old times sake."

He agreed. We danced and it felt like he trapped me in his forest-green eyes. I just wanted to enjoy this moment with him. The song came to an end and so our magical moment. "Mikey please can we get back together? Don't you feel this connection and pull between us."

"No. I don't feel anything with you anymore. And I stopped doing relationship stuff three years back." He jerked away from his hands from mine. And I already started missing his warmth on me. Why was he behaving this way? I do remember our nights a few weeks back.

I was about to say something when Elena's mom called me, so I excused myself. Walking towards the newlywed, "congratulations to the best couple in the world." I hugged them both.

"Now you got the time? I was waiting for you for so long." Elena complained.

"Sorry babe but blame the traffic. I started at the right time from home."

I was talking with them but my eyes kept looking back to Michael. He was happily dancing and laughing with that wedding planner. I wanted to be that woman in Mike's arms. "Who is that man your wedding planner is dancing with?" I couldn't resist asking.

"Her name is Ezra by the way. And he is her boyfriend. He is so handsome and sweet. They look so cute together." I felt a pang of jealousy and hurt in my heart. Boyfriend? But Michael told me she is a close friend. He lied to me.

Whatever it is, I will get my Mike back.
