He stopped a little, looking at her sitting there with her eyes on the floor slowly rising until it met his. With a smile still on his face, he bent down and kissed her forehead then took a seat next to her.
Meera: what took you so long?
She said without thinking
Hamad: impatient are we?
Meera: I've been sitting here longer than you (she said trying to change the subject)
Hamad: it's good to know that your impatient before it was too late, anything else I should prepare myself for? (he said smiling)
Meera: do you think talking about our worse qualities on our wedding day is the best thing to so right now?
They looked around and saw the camera flashes and heard loud music separating them from the audience
Hamad: what else are we going to do to pass the time?, so? impatient, and what else?
Meera: I'm not impatient
Hamad: wow and also stubborn
Meera: like what your marrying into? (she surprised herself by saying that)
Before he could answer that Fatima interfered and said
Fatima: it's time for the photos
...
Saif got around greeting Hamad's family and now it was time for fun. What a better place to pick up vulnerable girls than a wedding? There were a bunch of ladies whispering and giggling that looked pretty drunk and what a better way to handle one night stands. He walked over when he spotted Hessa walking towards the exit.
So he decided to follow her
Saif: leaving already?
Hessa turned around to see Saif standing looking at her in a way that made her feel tense. She could feel his eyes undressing her
Hessa: making a call
She said while waving her phone
Saif: a blind date?
He said taking one step closer to her
She smiled remembering the date they had
Saif: you look hot (smirk)
Hessa: not bad yourself
Saif: I can live with that
He got even closer
Saif: have dinner with me
Hessa: like in a date? (She raised her eyebrow in curiosity)
Around an hour later of flirting and establishing intense sexual attraction they got into talking about their jobs and their friends and family. Hessa looked at her watch and realized the time.
Hessa: so my best friend is getting married to your boss
Saif: he is a close friend
Hessa: Hamad Al X is a close friend?
Saif: we met in high school and friends ever since
She wondered how that was, she met Meera and Fatima after graduating college. She lost touch with all her previous friends while he manages to stay close to his high school friends for a long time.
Saif: you seem surprised
Hessa: you two seem pretty close
Saif: why do I look like a man incapable of having friends?
She was taken back by his response
Saif: I'm the eldest and only son with five younger sisters, he is the brother that I never had
Hessa watched him talk about the people he cared about.
Hessa: five sisters huh, I'm an only child
Likewise Saif saw her talk about her family, childhood and friends. There and then it was the first time he actually listened to a woman speak and not think about having sex with her the whole time.
He was surprised at himself.
Saif: you haven't answered me about dinner?
That was when she got up grabbed his phone entered her phone number and left without saying a word. It was weird for her, definitely a first.
He smiled knowing that she wanted him to work for it. She was a woman used to having control all her life, always having it her way.
...
People were starting to leave and it was time to get going.
Fatima: ok love birds, time to get going
She helped Meera up and walked them to the elevators
Fatima: see ya tomorrow, don't stay up too late
And with that she left
Hamad: and that is what YOU'RE marrying into
Which made Meera giggle
They got into the elevator and were the only ones in it.
Hamad: about the sleeping arrangements
Meera freaked out for a second, she totally forgot about this night. Even though their marriage was business but they won't sleep in separate bedrooms until they get back from their honey moon.
Hamad: I couldn't get a two bedroom suite-
Meera: it's fine
She said unsure of it all
Hamad got in the bathroom first getting ready for bed while Meera stayed out taking her veil off of her head and her jewelry. She took out her PJ's and waited for Hamad.
Stepping out of the bathroom, he saw Meera sitting on the chair brushing though her hair still wearing her wedding gown. She looked beautiful and he stood there looking at her. She placed her brush down and got up to the bathroom. She normally sleeps in an over sized t-shirt with nothing on except for panties but this time she got her pajama bottoms with a plain tank top.
She got out of the bathroom after washing off the makeup and saw Hamad arranging some stuff in his bag.
Meera: 'here we go'
