A/N: I'm back with the story and I hope you like it. I just saw a trailer for 'Friends with Benefits' and already I have a picture in my mind. Can't wait to go see it. Mila Kunis rocks.
I listed this under Rob and Rae because they will be the most featured couple in this story so yeah... Its RobXRae and Rae&Argent.
Anyways I don't own Bride Wars and I don't own The Teen Titans. There will be a lot of these -(1)(2)- throughout this chapter just to warn you lolz. Just in case some people don't know because I know I used to get confused all the time.
Enjoy and review plz.
At Karen and Vic's Wedding
Rachel and Toni made their way to the other side of the room while the bride and groom danced.
"What a beautiful wedding." Toni gushed
"It was. Kori looked like she was going to loooose it though." Toni laughed before picking up two glasses from a nearby server's tray.
"Vic looked nervous as ever."
"Karen looked great. I'm glad I talked her out of that vest." Toni said truly relieved
"Very true. The one strap is fine without cover, and she has the most feminine shoulders so its perfect for her." Rachel complemented.
"The décor is nice." Toni commented
"I feel a 'but' coming on." Rachel said in a sing-song voice.
"But it's not June .…" she trailed off
"And its not The Tower." Rachel finished for her.(1)
"Cheers to that." They clinked their glasses and took a sip as their wedding dates walked over.
"Is there any chance, any chance at all-" Jason began to ask before Toni cut him off moving closer to fix his tie.
"-we could go home and watch all of your backed up TiVo? I don't think so."
"God I really am that predictable aren't I?"
"You're not predictable Jason. Just kind of boring." Rachel teased.
"I apologize for her. It's way past her bedtime and she's cranky." Richard defended his old college buddy.
"I resent tha-" he cut her off with a kiss.
"Okay I will give you my slice of cake and one more dance if you let me go home. It's getting late and Bruce will kick my ass if I fall asleep during another meeting."
"No problem. We can leave." she agreed
"Seriously?" he asked getting his hopes up too soon.
"Right after they throw the bouquet!" she added as they swayed to the music.
"Who knows when that will be?" he whined
At that moment Karen walked up to the microphone and announced it was time for the previously mentioned event. All the girls swarmed around and got ready to catch the bouquet. When it was thrown Toni's arm tensed as she reached and Rachel's eyes went straight towards it. They both caught it at the same time and looked at each other excitedly.
"I didn't see that one coming." Jason said while he drank some more.
"Please." Richard patted his friends back and walked towards Rachel with his jacket on his arm ready to go.
In Jump Park 6:30 AM
"I'm pretty sure running this early is illegal in some countries."
"Not in England! Now keep up Rachel. I mean I'm literally running circles around you." she teased.
"Oh come on. I'm not that slow." she defended.
To prove her point Toni danced around Rachel while keeping the same pace. "We've got to do better than that love."
"Whatever, you're lucky you're my friend or I'd-" she was cut off by Toni.
"But you see, I am your friend. How's Richie Rich?"
"Oh would you stop it? He's not even the head of the company. He's just Vice President." she breathed out while speeding up.
"And who's the President again?" Toni asked fully knowing.
"His father." she said rolling her eyes.
"Exactly."
"Why can't we run with our iPod's again?" she asked trying not to complain.
"Because running with loud music is for troubled souls, now lets go." she answered automatically.
"Okay enough with the running, can we please speed walk?" Rachel complained. Keeping up with Toni might as well have been Olympic Training.
"Fine. But tomorrow we're doing sprints. Bench to bench." she said seriously.
"Whatever you say. Here comes my turn." Rachel said before turning on a sidewalk towards her apartment. "Hey Toni!" Rachel called. She did a back handspring into a back tuck before watching Toni as she did the same. She laughed at the private joke they shared.(2) Toni continued her run all the way to her separate apartment where she changed into a black and red striped shirt and a black pencil skirt that stopped at the knees. She fixed her short red highlighted hair before grabbing her keys and leaving for school.
Jump City Middle School 7:15
When she got there everything was as normal as could be. Unfortunately normal for her meant dealing with Katherine.(3)
"Ms. Monetti!" she heard a little girl calling her name.
"What's going on sweetie? How was your week?"
"My week was great! But Ms. Moth was looking for you earlier."
"Was she?" Toni asked trying not to panic. "Do you know where she is? Was she anywhere near this area?"
"Tori! Darling!"
'Shit' she cursed in her head. "Katherine! It's Toni actually, but how are you. You look….. pink!" and that was the truth. She was decked out head to toe in the color. Had Jenny worn it, it might have been balanced out with a little bit of black, but this was too much.(4)
"I know what you're thinking. How does she look so fabulous for school every morning?"
"Sure that's what I was thinking." Toni said under her breath.
"Looks like you could use some help. I mean red and black is all you ever wear. How about this. You take my late bus duty for the rest of the week and I'll give you my fashion advice.
"Well you know I've got other things to do." she tried to get out of it.
"But you'd love to. And I'm sure you'd love to do the debate team chaperoning for finals next week. I mean I can't do it. Listening to children and their problems. Its just,…. GLAUGH! Besides you enjoy children! I know I spoil you but hey, girlfriends have to look out for each other." with that Katherine walked off leaving Toni with double the work.
"Great."
Later On 3:30
"You know exactly why she does that Toni," Rachel tried to console her friend after she explained what happened. "Its because you are the best teacher at that school. You know it and she knows it. She's trying to give you so much work it'll break you down."
"I think she's kind of sad. She's been broken up with three times in a row."
"So what?"
"In the past month."
"Ouch!" Yeah
The two were walking to Rachel's apartment to hang out and have some girl time before their boyfriends got home. Usually Rachel wasn't for it but after the work day she had, she was in a surprisingly good mood. She just found out she won three of her cases and was in for a promotion. 'Mom would have been proud.' she thought to herself as they reached the front steps. Just then her phone started to ring.
"Hello? No I can't talk right now, I'm dealing with a crisis." she hung up the phone.
"What's your crisis? You're actually kind of smiling today!"
"I don't have a crisis. That's just what I say when I don't want to talk to someone."
"Oh thanks for letting me know." Toni laughed.
Inside the Apartment
"Hey these jeans fit me!" she called.
"Then keep them!" Rachel called from inside the walk-in closet. She walked out with a familiar black shirt. "And by the way purple is my color not yours." she took the said colored shirt out of her hands. "And even though black fits on both of us, this," she held up the other shirt, "-never hung right on me." she tossed it to Toni and she examined it.
"Of course not because its my size and you've never worn it." she held up the price tag and held it out to her generous friend. "I can't."
"I saw you eyeing last week when we passed Kori's shop. Keep it." she nodded her head.(5)
"No I really can't." she began protesting again.
"Toni, seriously just say 'thank you' and we'll call it even."
"Thank you. I love it and I love you." she hugged her best friend.
"Oh god contact. Ewwwww." Toni laughed at her friend's lack of social skills and they began play fighting. In the process they knocked over a bunch of boxes in the closet. They stopped playing around and began picking up the empty shoe boxes. There was one left when Toni noticed a small red box with black ribbon around it.
"Oh my God." Toni stood up cradling it in her hands.
Rachel, still on the floor, looked up at it as well. "You don't think that's-?"
"It could be." Toni answered while a smile crept up on her face
