Excerpt
“I’m sorry it took me so long to do this. Why don’t you look stressed out?”
“There’s nothing for me to stress about. The dress is going to fit you perfectly.” Sam said as she ushered Lisa into the changing booth that already had her dress in it. “Besides, the golf course is handling almost everything. All I have to do is show up. And pick up my family at the airport of course.”
“When are they flying in?”
“Tomorrow morning.” Sam winced. “Even though we tried to book flights three months ago this was the earliest we could get everyone in. Unless they all took a week off and flew in last weekend.”
“Ugh, what would you have done with them for a week?”
“Killed them. I’m sure”
“Who all’s coming?”
“Mom and Dad, T. W. and Sarah, Rick, Grandma, Pap, all of my parents’ brothers and sisters and about ten of my cousins.”
“Holy cow!”
“Yes. There are thirty-four of them.”
“That’s half the plane.”
“We got a group rate. Do you have that dress on yet or are you taking a nap in there?”
Lisa opened the door, and turned around. “Can you zip me?”
“Of course.” They looked at the mirror together. It was a simple strapless dress in royal blue. It fit Lisa like a glove and she looked perfect.
“See no reason to stress.”
“It’s beautiful.” Lisa said. “Are you sure you want me to wear this?”
“What did you think I would make you wear?”
“I’ve never been a bridesmaid before but I thought there was some sort of bylaw requiring some God-awful pink tulle creation.”
“Not for you, gorgeous.” Sam winked at her. “Chad’s going to choke on his tongue.”
Lisa rolled her eyes. “We got lunch today.”
“What? You got lunch with Chad?”
“Yup.”
“Voluntarily?”
“Yup.”
“Is he still living?”
“Of course he’s still living. What kind of question is that?”
“Are you perhaps softening towards him?”
“Don’t be silly. We were comparing our speeches for the toasts.”
“Well that seems like a perfectly reasonable excuse to have lunch with the second hottest man I know.” Sam said tongue in cheek.
“It was a short lunch.”
“How are the speeches?”
“We don’t have them yet. In fact, do you think there is any chance we could skip them?”
“Sure.”
“Really?”
“Yes. Luke and I both agree that ninety percent of weddings are useless pomp. The only parts we are serious about are the I Do’s and the cake.”
“For a girl who almost had apoplexy over the decision to move in with him, you are certainly taking this ‘til death do us part business in stride.”
Sam beamed. “What can I say? I’m in love."
