I wake up and I'm in Preston's arms.
"Babe. We have to wake up. I want to find a wedding dress today." I say.
"I can't come with you! You can't see your bride in her dress before the wedding it's bad luck!" He says.
"Pwease I don't want to go alone!"
"Take your mother, Savanna and Rob with you. I promise they'll help."
"Alright."
I text them and I get up and get dressed.
"They're here Mara!" Preston yells to me.
I walk out and my mother immediately hugs me.
"I can't believe my baby is getting married. You grew up way to fast." She says
"Mom stop you're going to make me cry." I laugh.
"I'm sorry but it's true. I remember when you were 16 and you found this boy on the Internet. Whenever he would favorite your tweets you would freak out and start to cry. I always told you that you would never meet him. But I guess I was wrong because 3 years later he came to our city an you guys met. It was like watching one of those cheesy movies. You guys had fireworks going off. Not sparks but fireworks. I knew this would work out. And I couldn't be happier with the turnout. Preston your perfect for my daughter. I'm going to so happy with you as my son in law."
"Thank you. Mom" he says.
"Awe" Rob says ." Now you're going to make me cry."
I go over and hug Preston.
"Go get your dream dress, for my dream girl." He says to me.
"Try to get the mason jars ordered. 250 of them please. Ooo get some fake white Daisy chains too. And maybe get some places to have it at? Just some ideas. Make it really tumblr!" I say.
"Alright" he laughs. "Have fun. I'll miss you."
"I'll miss you too."
I kiss him and leave.
Rob drives, my mom in the passenger seat and Sav and I in the back.
"You look quite lovely today Mrs. Ghiridelli." Rob says to my mother kissing her hand.
"Oh Robert! Such a flatterer!" My mom blushes.
Did he just make a move on my mom? Savanna cringes. We both end up cringing really bad. Savanna snorts and I get a text from her
From savvy: you might be Mrs. Lasky Arsement soon
I pretend to vomit.
"What?" Rob asks.
"Nothing." I gag
We get to the wedding dress store and walk in.
"Okay so who's the special someone who is getting married?!" The feminine man who works there asks.
"Me." I shyly say.
"Beautiful. Let's get you sized."
He grabs my hand and takes me back to the fitting room. He measures my body and shakes his head.
"Skinny. Eat more food." He lectures me.
I laugh and he leaves. A few minutes later he comes back with three dresses.
"Try this one on." He says handing me dress #1
I try it on and look at myself in the mirror. I start to tear up. For once in my life I find myself beautiful.
"So who is the lucky man?" He asks.
"Preston Arsement." I smile.
"Is he a YouTuber?" He asks sitting up in his chair.
"Yeah you know him?"
"My daughter is obsessed with him. She's going to be so mad/excited that he's getting married."
"Haha does she want to meet him?" I ask.
"Probably but I'll call her."
He calls her and I can hear her screaming through the phone. He hangs up and nods his head yes.
"After my work is over can we meet up in maybe a park or something?"
"Sure"
I look at myself in the mirror and sigh.
"Do you want to go show everyone?" He asks.
I nod and we walk out.
They gasp.
"You look amazing." Rob says.
"Thanks." I say looking at myself.
It's a mermaid dress with a sweetheart neckline. It's lace and pure white.
"Do you like it?" My mother asks.
"It's okay but I want to try on the others before I choose"
The man nods and we walk back to the room.
I try on another dress. It's pure white, long lace sleeves, it's a flowy dress. I like it.
"How do you like this one." He asks. "Would Preston like it?"
"That's the question that goes through my head when I get dressed in the morning." I laugh.
"How long have you guys been dating?"
"5 years."
"Awh."
"Yeah he's my everything."
"Legit you're going to make me cry." He chuckles.
I laugh.
"Can I try on the other dress? This one is not really my favorite." I ask.
He nods and hands me the last dress. It's a beautiful white gown. It's beautiful.
"How do you like this one?" He asks me.
"I really love this one." I answer.
"Let's go show them"
We walk out and they all gasp.
"Shut your mouth Rob you'll catch flys." I laugh.
"Sorry but you're beautiful...." He says.
"Yeah you are." Savanna agrees.
"Is this the dress, Mara?" The man asks.
"Yes." I nod tearing up.
"Oh good!" My mom cheers.
"Where do I pay?" I ask.
"The dress is on me. You're letting my daughter meet the love of her life, I got the dress." The man says
"Thank you so, so much."
"You're welcome."
"Let's meet at 3, at the park in the middle of town. Is that okay?" I ask.
"Yea! See you later!"
I smile and nod and we walk out.
"I can't believe you got that dress for free just because his daughter was a fan." Savanna laughs.
"Me either! It's crazy!" I say.
"I still can't believe my little girl is getting married." My mom says.
"Me either mom, me either."
"You know you basically stalked Preston for three years."
"Shhhh we don't talk about that." I laugh.
I smile and put in my headphones. We get back to the condo ad walk in. Preston's asleep on the couch and the kids are drawing on his face with markers.
"Daddy is going to be soooo mad at you guys!!" I say. "You better go get rid of the markers before daddy wakes up!"
The kids look at me scared and then look at Preston, then at each other. They quickly run to their room and put the markers away.
I crouch down next to Preston.
"Hey babe?" I say kissing him on the lips.
"Hi" he smiles.
I try really hard not to laugh.
"You know the children love you right?" I giggle.
"Yes what did they do?" he says sitting up.
"Look in the mirror"
He gets up and looks in the mirror.
"MY FACE" He yells.
"Babe its washable its okay! Calm down!" I say
"Please help me get it off."
"Alright."
We walk to the bathroom and I sit in the sink and wipe his face with a wet washcloth.
"By the way. We're meeting one of your fans at 3, at the park in town." I say looking him in the eyes.
"Okay" he smiles.
"Okay." I smile back.
I remove all the marker off of his face and hop down off the sink. I set down the cloth and wrap my arms around his neck and he wraps his arms around my waist.
"I'm so tired." I yawn and put my head on his chest.
"Same." He says kissing me on the forehead.
I grab his hand and we walk out of the bathroom.
"What time is it babe?" I ask.
He looks at his watch "2:00ish"
"Alright."
We sit on the couch and the kids join us.
"Hey guys?" Preston asks the kids.
"What daddy?"Aurora asks.
"What would you guys think of having another brother or sister?"
My heart skips a beat. I thought he didn't want more children? He grabs my hand and looks at me.
"Not till after were married" he mouths to me.
I nod and smile. He smiles back.
"I WANT A SISTER!" Aurora says.
"I WANT A BROTHER!" Ryker disagrees.
"Well we'll see." He laughs.
He squeezes my hand.
"We have to get going." I say.
"Alright"
We grab the kids and we all get into the car.
We arrive to the park and walk over to the man that I met at the shop and his daughter.
"Hi" Preston says walking up to them.
The girl... gets....hysterical... She sits there for a few seconds Fanning her eyes then a few seconds later she hugs him.
"She really likes you." The man says. "Oh and by the way my names Alfred."
"Nice to meet you Alfred." Preston groans.
"Okay, Susie let the poor man go." Alfred says.
He has to practically pull her off of him. She finally lets go and looks at me with a death glare.
"Os that your girlfriend, Presty?" She asks.
"Fiancé." He corrects.
"FIANCÉ?!! NO! UN-UH."
"Yes, fiancé. She picked out a dress today." Alfred buts in.
"I bet you look hideous." She snarls. "And why is there children?"
"They're ours." Preston says.
"Having kids before you're married?! I totally lost my respect for you. Dad lets go." She snaps and starts walking away.
"I'm sorry." Alfred says and he runs trying to catch up with her.
"Let's go home" Preston says kissing me on the cheek.
I nod and we go home.
