My Atypical Wolf (BL)-Chapter 316 - New, Borrowed

316 New, Borrowed

“Like tomorrow”. These words rang in Ashton’s head like an echo in his sister’s voice. Yes, Ashton loved Caleb and he was sure about marrying his mate. In fact the only reason he didn’t bother to argue with his sisters is because he knew that if Caleb even asked them, let alone ‘hired’ them, how much it must have meant to them.

However, he still felt anxious about it. Was it the infamous ‘wedding jitters’ he had heard about? He wondered. With everything going on, he just wasn’t sure if it was a good idea. When Ashton had imagined marrying the love of his life, he had always hoped that months of planning would include, and they would not be rushing into it.

But then again, there have been months since he proposed and yet there was no sign of any planning yet. Perhaps this was for the best after all. Ashton considered. Ashton scrolled in his scroll mindlessly, without even bothering to check what was actually on the screen as he found himself getting further lost in the upcoming wedding tomorrow.

His reverie was finally broken by a click from the door. “Have you seen the condition of the house lately? I think your sisters and our kids have totally flipped the house. Your mom’s gonna be so pissed when she sees this.” Caleb scoffed.

“You hired the twins?” Was the first thing Ashton retorted with.

Caleb froze, stunned to be asked that exact same question. He was surprised as if he had hoped Ashton wouldn’t know about this… even if it was supposed to be the night before their wedding. “What?”

“Okay… don’t be mad. We have been so busy with this and that… and we have so many responsibilities now. I mean at least you look young, or we’re basically some old men.” Caleb rolled his eyes. “My point is, I want our wedding to be special, but I dunno if I wanna wait forever, cause I dunno when this mess will be over.”

“So you asked the twins… and they said tomorrow? They have been here all day, what plans do you think they made?” Ashton asked.

“Actually, they have been at it for weeks.” Caleb shrugged.

.....

“Weeks”? Ashton’s eyes widened.

“I asked them weeks ago.” Caleb shrugged.

“And yet you didn’t tell me?” Ashton was amazed.

“It’s not that I was trying to hide it from you. I mean, you are the groom, you are kind of an important part of this wedding. I just… with your new job and all this new threat, I didn’t know when was a better time to drop this bomb. I guess it totally slipped out of my mind.” Caleb finished, which earned a sigh from Ashton. “Are you mad?”

“No!” Ashton blurted immediately. “I can never be mad at you,” he added. “I just…I dunno what to feel. It’s happening so fast and yet not fast enough.” he bit his lip. “I am just nervous… how it’ll go.” he chuckled. “I don’t even have a wedding tux yet.”

“Well… I borrowed some for us. It’s quite new and has never been worn, so it could also be something borrowed and something new for us.” Caleb shrugged.

“Are they blue in color?” Ashton asked skeptically.

“Oh, God no!” Caleb shook his head. “I mean, you’re hot. But not in a blue tux.”

“Hey, I can pull it off if I want to.” Ashton narrowed his eyes.

“Sure, you can babe.” Caleb left a quick peck on Ashton’s lips. “Just don’t pull it off in our wedding.” he shrugged, earning a round of laughter from Ashton. “So…” Ashton smiled. “We are getting married tomorrow.”

“Yeah.” Caleb smiled.

“Are you sure you wanna do this? Can you tolerate me for the rest of our lives?” Ashton asked.

“I do,” Caleb nodded, followed by a big smile that engraved in both of their mouths followed by a sweet kiss, which in turn soon turned into a passionate one. They were about to let go of themselves, when Ashton pulled away. “What?” With disappointment clearly visible in their face, Caleb asked. “Is everything alright?”

“I just… I think we should wait.” Ashton added. “For our wedding night I mean.” he shrugged. That caused Caleb to burst out in laughter as he rolled over in bed.

“Who would have thought, Ashton Parker would be so old fashioned.” Caleb added in between laughter. 𝘧r𝙚e𝓌𝐞𝑏𝗻𝑜𝘷𝙚Ɩ. com

“Hey there was a time I didn’t even believe in love.” Ashton sighed. “But I was so wrong.” He shrugged. “Besides, anything I could possibly plan for this wedding has either been done by you or you have outsourced it.” Ashton huffed. “I am doing this,” he added firmly.

“Alright, whatever you say.” Caleb whispered seductively. Ashton got out of the bed immediately. He was about to leave the room, when he stopped at the doorknob. “Hey, what about something old and something blue?” Ashton asked.

Caleb went quiet for a moment, “I have thought of it exclusively.” he nodded. “You wanna figure that out?” he asked.

Ashton considered the offer for a moment, “Sure.” he shrugged.

“But, not a blue tux.” Caleb added immediately.

“Well, I will consider it.” Ashton winked and got out of the room. As Caleb laid there in silence, extremely exhausted from the whole day’s work, he tried his level best to fall asleep. But the excitement of the wedding the very next day was too much to let him drift off. Every time he closed his eyes, all he could see was a beautiful aisle decorated just for their wedding. Ashton waited for him at the end of the aisle, while everyone he loved gathered around them. Even his children were dressed as pretty as he could possibly imagine. In fact even his ears started to ring as he heard the wedding bells.

Amidst his excitement and nervousness, he finally fell asleep at dawn, without even realizing that he would have to be awake within the next few hours.
