Page 6 of Love at First Flight
He was so shocked that he almost fell out of the door when he backed through it and she shut and locked it in his face.
That felt good, relieving in some small way.
She spent the rest of the day sewing and selling dresses whenever customers came in so Arielle could finish the bead work on a custom-made dress.
It was amazing and beautiful. And Arielle worked wonders with fabric and beads.
She was always in awe with each new piece, even though this wasn’t the first time Arielle made custom dresses and it wouldn’t be the last.
She just put them together and let Arielle handle the small details and all the particulars. That was her best friend's forte.
Hers was selling the dresses and apparently scaring off real estate men who wouldn’t just leave it be.
Halloween was finally here, and the day had been busy, which was good, because she had nothing going on at night. She didn’t have any plans for Halloween, but Arielle did.
It was a little pathetic, but she had her movies, and she was damned happy to sit in some comfy clothes, pop some popcorn and pig out in front of her television.
Arielle had to get going and left early to get ready, while she closed up the shop with Arielle’s grandma Liliana.
She loved the woman immensely and always thought of her as her second grandma.
Same with Arielle’s parents. Her own parents were just as amazing though.
Emmaline and Brand Reeves were the best parents around.
She was their only child, and yet it was amazing.
Her parents never spoiled her, and taught her to live the best life she could.
She took it to heart and never looked back. They let her follow her dreams and never pushed her into things that she didn’t want.
Which she appreciated to no end. When Arielle had told her parents, Stephan and Ann about them wanting to start their business, they were all behind them.
They helped them in any way they could, especially Grandma Liliana, and their parents had become really good friends.
They did things together often and Arielle and Kadence loved it.
They had dinners a lot growing up and because of that, were thick as thieves.
Kadence knew that she was extremely lucky in the parent department and was indeed grateful for it.
She was able to decide for herself what she wanted to do for her career and she loved that they had never pressured her for anything.
They weren’t even trying to do the parent thing where they wanted her to choose a suitor.
She loved having the choice, although she wanted something to choose from. She left for the night after cleaning up the back room and getting ready for the next day.
She had cut out the fabric for the next dresses and they were set to make more for Halloween.
-----
Halloween was finally her, and they were as busy as ever.
Arielle had to leave to go trick or treating and for the party and Kadence was a little envious of it.
She let out a sigh and closed up the shop for the night, and then drove home.
She knew that she would have very little trick or treaters where she and Arielle lived in a tiny bungalow on the edges of the town.
