"Estrella, do you really think I won't make a move?" I teased, pulling the comforter over us, creating our own little cocoon.
The plan was to charm her into dropping the case she was dead set on, but instead, I found myself falling for her all over again.
After a bit of playful tussling, Estrella, looking content, snuggled into my arms and whispered, "I'm off to dreamland."
Moonlight streamed through the window, casting a soft glow on Estrella's serene face as she slept. A tender smile spread across my face, and I gently kissed her cheek. "Thank you, Estrella," I murmured, gratitude swelling in my heart for her love, her patience, and her unwavering support.
She burrowed closer in response, her warmth merging with mine.

Estrella's playful nature was one of the things I loved most about her, and I often turned a blind eye to her antics. Her involvement with Justice Guardians LLP went smoothly, thanks to Logan's understanding. He made sure her workload was light, considering the baby she was carrying. Estrella, ever the restless soul, couldn't sit still, balancing her growing family with her career like a pro.
As the wedding day drew near and Estrella's belly grew more pronounced, the Dorvold household buzzed with excitement. Autumn even hired a team of gardeners to spruce up the yard, making sure it looked perfect for the big day.
Three days before the ceremony, our home transformed into a festival of joy, with decorations and symbols of happiness everywhere. Relatives from both the Dorvold and Zhao families arrived, with Keith and Amber staying with us and others in nearby hotels.
The wedding planners hustled between the Dorvold and Nelson families, making sure every detail was just right for our big day.
Amidst the hustle and bustle, the reality of my upcoming marriage felt surreal, like I was a guest at someone else's celebration. Reflecting on the journey Estrella and I had taken, I couldn't help but feel a profound sense of accomplishment.
The night before the wedding, Jesse and Sandy, along with a few college friends, came over, grounding me in the reality that this was indeed my wedding. As the evening wound down and our home quieted, Jesse stayed by Estrella's side, a comforting presence amidst the whirlwind of preparations.
Chelsea, though absent to avoid any awkwardness, had Sandy relay her assistance, showcasing the solidarity among friends.
