Callum walked into the large guest suite where Adrienne would be staying, carrying clean sheets to put on the bed. ``God, I can't wait to see her again,`` he said, smiling gleefully.
``Didn't just see her a few days ago, though? When you went through the whole, "picking a girl" operation?`` Adi replied with a chuckle, grabbing the sheets from her brother.
``Yeah, but that was only for a short amount of time,`` Callum replied, watching his sister before going to help her make the beds.
``I suppose so,`` Adi said with a giggle. ``I'd like to meet the girl as well. What did you say her name was?``
``Her name's Adrienne,`` he said, his smile growing bigger as the words came out of his mouth.
``Y'know, that name sounds familiar.``
``Like, familiar as in you have a friend named Adrienne?``
``No, not that. Like, I've heard you say that name before. Like, a long time ago.``
Callum paused for a moment before realizing what she meant. ``Oh yeah, I actually met Adrienne before this.`` -
Adrienne started packing her and her dad's things. She wasn't sure when their ride to the palace would be so she wanted to be ready whenever it came.
-
``Wait, when??`` Adi said, pausing her bed-making.
``A few years back, don't you remember?`` Callum said, ``I came home gushing about it, and how funny she was.``
``Hm, guess I just don't remember it,`` Adi said with a light chuckle, continuing to make the bed. ``Well, I'm glad you can reunite with her. Wonder if she remembers.``
Callum nodded, running a hand through his hair. ``I don't really know if she does remember that we've met before. It didn't seem like she remembered.`` -
A number of days later a limo was sent to Adrienne's house.
"I'll make sure to come visit," she said, wrapping her friends in a hug while the stuff was being packed into the limo. After a few moments Adrienne and her dad got into the car. She waved back until her friends were out of sight. -
Callum sat in his room, sketching absentmindedly as he listen to music. He hummed along as he drew, tapping his foot against the floor.
``Callum! You in here?``
He sighed, turning off his music. ``Come in Jer,`` he said, returning to drawing.
``So, did she accept?`` Jeremy asked, walking into Callum's room.
``Yeah, she accepted,`` he replied, smiling. ``She should be arriving soon. Maybe in the next few days? I don't know.``
``Nice,`` Jeremy said, walking over to Callum. ``See? You can win over the ladies.``
Callum rolled his eyes, chuckling. ``Sure.`` -
Adrienne arrived at the palace a few hours later. She gazed up at it in amazement. She suddenly felt very underdressed. The limo pulled up and Adrienne got out with her dad. This was going to be their home now.
-
Callum raced down the stairs, having seen the limo pull up. ``She's here, she's here, she's here!`` He said excitedly, unable to control his excitement.
Adelaide giggled, following Callum downstairs. ``Relax, Cal.``
``Sorry, just uhm, excited to see her again,`` he said awkwardly, his face red with embarrassment. He cleared his throat, fixing his hair and walking over to the entrance. He walked outside, seeing Adrienne and who he guessed was her father. -
"Hey," Adrienne said. She was admittedly nervous. Her father put a relaxing hand on her shoulder.
-
``Hi,`` Callum said with a nervous smile, walking over to Adrienne.
-
Adrienne's dad was a quiet man, calm and contained. On the few occasions that he spoke it was straight to the point. He looked at Callum with an examining eye. "You're the one who will be marrying my daughter?"
-
``Uh, yes sir, I am,`` Callum replied, straightening his posture in attempt to look more confident, even though his expression showed his real emotions.
-
"Dad you're making him nervous," Adrienne said quietly, nudging him
-
Callum smiled awkwardly, putting his hands in his pockets. ``Do you uh, do you need any help bringing in your luggage?`` He asked, glancing over at the limo. ``I can help if you'd- if you'd like.``
-
"You don't have to," Adrienne said.
"Don't trouble yourself," her dad said with a smile. -
``Oh, alright,`` Callum said, crossing his arms. ``Uh, let me show you to where you'll be staying.`` He said, gesturing for them to follow him inside.
