forty-five minutes later and found William and Caroline seated at the table eating breakfast.
“Did you order breakfast?” William asked her when she sat down.
“Yeah, I got up a while ago; so I figured I’d order for us. What time are Nik and Katya coming over?” Jilly asked as she piled eggs and hash browns onto her plate.
“Nik called this morning and said they’ll be over in about an hour,” he replied.
“Ok, that’s fine,” Jilly said and then turned to Caroline, “I made us an appointment at Kleinfeld’s for this afternoon.” Caroline let out a scream.
“Oh, I’m so excited; I can’t wait to see you in those dresses.”
“It’s not just for me, Car, we need to find dresses for you and Kat, and maybe one for Em.”
“Well that’s exciting too, but not as exciting as seeing you in a wedding dress, Jill,” Caroline said. William grinned at Jilly, grabbed her hand and squeezed it.
“I’m glad you get to do something fun on this trip. It shouldn’t be all business. Nik and I have to go back to Sabine’s place anyway, so we’ll just go during your appointment.”
William squeezed her hand again.
“It means a lot that you want to include Katya. She’s one of my best friends and I’m so happy you guys are close.” They all finished eating and Caroline excused herself so she could get ready. Jilly and William went back to their room and sat on the bed.
“When do you want to get married, Jill? We never really had a chance to set a date.”
“I think maybe October? I’ve always wanted a fall wedding. I love the colors of the trees. So that gives us a little over seven months to plan. Do you want a big wedding, or a small one?”
William laughed, “Honey, I don’t really care. As long as at the end of the day you’re my wife, I’ll be happy.”
She laughed back at him. “I don’t really think we’ll be able to get away with a small wedding. I know pretty much everyone in town and they’ll all want to come. Do you think we can afford a big wedding? I have some money saved up and I think my dad will want to help a little bit.”
“Jill, we’ll be fine. I want to pay for it. I’ve waited hundreds of years for you and during that time I’ve amassed quite a fortune. We’ll discuss that aspect of my life later; but just know that money is no object.” He fumbled in his pocket for his wallet, pulled out a card and handed it to her. It was an American Express black card. She took it and looked at the front. Jilly’s jaw dropped--her name was printed across the front.
“Will? This is too…I can’t take this.” Her hands flew to her mouth in surprise.
“Well, when I asked you to marry me, I figured you’d need to be added onto my accounts. You’re planning the wedding, so I added you. You have a few more cards, but they’re back home. I was hoping you’d get to have a little bit of wedding fun while we were here, so I brought this one along.” Jilly wiped at the tears that were desperately trying to leak out of her eyes.
“How on earth did I get so lucky? You are the most amazing man I have ever met. It’s not the money, although that’s a nice perk it’s the thought behind the gesture. I love you so much, Will.” She threw her arms around him and kissed him. He pulled her in tighter and deepened the kiss, enjoying the feeling of her skin against his hands. Jilly pushed him back on the bed, straddling his waist. After a few minutes, they both pulled away feeling a little breathless. Jilly slid off to the side, both lying on their backs.
“I love you too, Jill, more than anything in this world,” William said as he pulled her to her feet. They heard the doorbell chime and, as they were walking out to meet Nik and Katya, he turned back to her. “Everything I said before goes for Caroline, too. I want to make her feel safe now that she’s starting over. I don’t want her to worry about anything; I just want her to find out what’s going to make her happy. I
