Maggie smiled lovingly as Johnathon continued rambling on and on about their upcoming wedding, he only stopped when he realized Maggie wasn't even listening.
"Sorry I was rambling," he said with a smirk as he reached for his coke.
"I'm glad you're excited," Maggie said as she reached over and took his hand squeezing it.
He smiled as he leaned over and kissed her chastely, "very," he whispered against her lips.
Maggie beamed as she leaned over and kissed him again, they only broke apart when they heard someone clearing their throat.
"Hey," Bianca said to the couple as she gave them a small wave.
"Hey you made it," Maggie said excitedly as she scooted over so Bianca could slide in next to her.
"I told you I would," Bianca said with a smile as she set her purse down beside her.
"Can I get you anything?" a bored looking waitress asked as she walked over.
"Just water is fine please," Bianca replied as she turned towards Maggie and Jonathon.
"You got it," she replied as she turned and headed towards the counter.
"So what are you guys talking about?" Bianca asked.
"Wedding plans," Maggie beamed as she interlaced her and Johnathon's hands.
"Oh cool," Bianca smiled as she stared down into the water the waitress placed in front of her.
"Are you okay?" Maggie asked concern in her voice as she took Bianca's hand in her own.
Bianca shuddered at the touch, "fine," she said with a smile as she squeezed Maggie's hand.
Jonathon gave her a dirty look as he grabbed his jacket.
"Where are you going?" Maggie asked as he stood up to put it on.
"I need to head to work," he said as he eyed Bianca angrily.
Bianca grew uncomfortable under his glare as she looked away.
"Oh okay," Maggie said sadly as she rubbed his back. "Don't forget we have to be at the flower shop tomorrow at nine."
Johnathon nodded as he leaned down and kissed Maggie deeply his eyes boring into Bianca's the whole time.
"Bye babe," Maggie said as she watched her fiancé leave.
Maggie turned back towards Bianca and beamed, "I can't believe I'm getting married.
"Me either," Bianca mumbled as she gripped her water cup tightly.
"Are you sure that you're okay?" Maggie asked again as she looked at her best friend in concern.
"I'm okay really," Bianca lied as she gave Maggie a tight smile.
Maggie didn't buy it for one second but chose to let it go for now.
"So how is the wedding planning going," Bianca tried to ask as casually as possible.
"Couldn't be going any better, Johnathon is pitching as well its great," Maggie said with a huge smile.
"Super," Bianca mumbled.
"Do you not like him or something?" Maggie asked point blank a look of hurt evident on her face.
"He's fine really," Bianca assured her as she took her hand a squeezed it gently.
"Really you like him?" Maggie asked her voice full of hope.
Bianca signed to herself she knew her opinion meant a lot to the blonde so she did what she had to do and lied, "I do."
Maggie beamed as she leaned over and hugged her best friend tightly, "great that makes me so happy."
Bianca couldn't help but hold Maggie a little tighter, this marriage was going to break her heart and she knew it, but she just had to accept that her best friend loved someone else.
"So I was wondering if you wanted to go with me tomorrow?" Maggie rambled on.
"Huh?" Bianca asked as she shook her head to clear her thoughts.
An amused expression crossed Maggie's face, "to go dress shopping?"
Bianca laughed, "Oh right of course."
Maggie laughed as she reached for a chip and munched on it and she began rambling again and again about her and Jonathon's upcoming nuptials.
Bianca tried her best to pay attention even though her heart was breaking.
"I can't wait for tomorrow," Maggie exclaimed as she and Bianca walked towards her car.
"Me either," Bianca said with a fake smile as she opened the door and slid inside.
"So I will pick you up at nine tomorrow morning and maybe afterwards we can grab a bite," Maggie said as she pulled up in front of Erica's mansion.
"Sounds great," Bianca said as she got out and closed the door behind her.
Maggie gave her a small wave as she backed out and drove down the gravel road before disappearing from sight.
Bianca watched her go before turning on her heel and storming inside, she threw her purse on the table before rushing towards her room and slamming the door.
"Bianca sweetie are you home?" Erica asked as she barged right on it without knocking.
What was the point in even asking if she was just going to barge in? Bianca thought angrily as she flopped down onto her bed.
"What's wrong sweetheart?" Erica asked as she swatted Bianca's hip and sat down on the edge of the bed.
"Nothing," Bianca mumbled into her pillow.
"Are you upset that Maggie is getting married?" Erica asked gently as she rubber her daughter's back soothingly.
"Why would I care," Bianca snapped.
"Because you love her," Erica snapped back.
Bianca looked up shock written all over her face "is it that obvious."
Erica smiled as she patted her cheek, "yes."
Fresh tears welled up in Bianca's eyes as she laid back down, "she can't marry him."
"Oh sweetie I know you love her, but she deserves to be happy even if it's with someone you feel isn't right for her."
Bianca looked up as she wiped her tears, "I know you're right but it still hurts so badly."
"I know sweetie," Erica replied as she hugged her daughter tightly.
"I just really care about her," Bianca sobbed.
"I know you do and that is why you have to let her be happy," Erica responded as she cupped Bianca's cheek.
Bianca closed her eyes, "I know you're right and I will try."
"That's really all you can do," Erica said as she stood up, she leaned down and kissed Bianca's forehead before turning on her heel and exciting the room making sure to close the door gently behind her.
Bianca took a deep breath as she pulled the covers over herself and tried to get some sleep.
