Mitchie woke up, wrapped in strong arms. She groaned. She had no intentions on getting up. Caitlyn and her mother were taking her dress shopping and between the two of them… horror. She snuggled her head under his chin and wrapped a leg around his. He groaned her name quietly and dragged her in closer. He wrapped an arm around her even tighter. She let out a contented sigh and relaxed into his hold, letting her eyes become heavy with sleep. "You know we're going to have get up soon right?" She heard him whisper. She just mumbled a no and clung to him. He chuckled and held her close. "Come on baby. You're going dress shopping. You should be excited… I know I would be if I got to come…" he trailed off. "You aren't seeing that dress until the wedding," she said without opening her eyes. "It was worth a shot", he shrugged.
She lay content in his arms as he began to absently stroke her hair. She was able to get out of bed. As she walked to their closet he groaned at the loss of her body heat. She got out a skirt and a blouse before walking to their bathroom. He was still in the position when she came out. She frowned and pulled off the comforter. "Hey!" he exclaimed as the cold air wrapped around him. She simply smirked before walking out of the room. Fifteen minutes later he stumbled into the room. She was standing at the stove, her back to him. He walked up behind her and placed his hands on her shoulders, rubbing gently. She leaned back against him. "That feels really good," she said. He smirked and leaned down to kiss her neck. She gave a quiet moan when he lightly sucked on the sensitive skin right below her ear. "Shane if you keep that up I'm not going to be able to leave…" she said. He pressed a final kiss to her neck but pulled away.
"Do you want French toast?" She asked him, already knowing the answer. He eagerly nodded like a little kid and sat at the table. She brought a plate with the food on it and set it in front of him along with a bottle of maple syrup. He took the bottle and proceeded to drown the toast in syrup. When he felt satisfied with the amount he placed it down. She shook her head at him and the two of them continued to eat. When they were finished, Mitchie put the plates in the dishwasher and then grabbed her purse. "Well now I get to go and try on dresses with my mother and best friend… wish me luck," she said as she slipped her shoes on. He laughed and gave her a peck on the lips before she exited the house. Now he made his way back to their bedroom where he proceeded to flop down on the bed and take a nap.
Mitchie pulled into her mom's drive way and she honked the horn. Her mom and Caitlyn came out and made their way to her car. She unlocked the doors and they slid in. Once the two had buckled up, she pulled back on to the street and began the drive to the salon. They chatted about the wedding on the way. Fifteen minutes later, they pulled into the parking lot and the three women made their way into the building. As they checked in, Mitchie felt the nervousness set in once again. She felt the excitement set in as well when she saw the consultant approach and ask for her. Mitchie shook the woman's hand and was then pulled into a room to talk with the consultant. The woman introduced herself as Karen. "So what kind of dress are you looking for?" The older woman asked. "Well I would like something flattering. I'm okay with a bit of beading, but nothing over the top. I like ruffles and lace," Mitchie thought. The woman nodded and smiled. "I'm sure we can find you something. Why don't you just make yourself comfortable and I'll go pull a few dresses for you," Karen said as she stood and walked out of the room. Several minutes later she returned with about five bags in her hand.
She took the first one and helped Mitchie get it on. The dress was fitted at the top and flared out on the bottom. It had beading on the top but the rest was plain white. Mitchie liked it but it just didn't feel right. She decided to show Caitlyn and her mom the dress anyway just to get their opinion. They gasped when they saw the dress. "Oh that's gorgeous…" Caitlyn said. Her mother quickly nodded her consent. "…but its not really you," Caitlyn added as an after thought. Mitchie nodded. "I was thinking the same thing," she spoke. Karen brought her back into the room and the two put on the second dress. The dress had spaghetti straps, floor length, and was fitted. It didn't have any lace or beading. It was very elegant but it was missing something. She didn't even show that one to her party.
By now she was beginning to get frustrated. She was helped into the third dress and her eyes began to water when she saw herself in it. The dress had a sweetheart neck line and a fitted top half. The bottom was ruffled and poofed out a bit on the bottom. She felt tears begin to come to her eyes as she looked at her reflection. "Oh you're crying. You love it don't you?" Karen asked, smiling. It always felt good seeing a bride overcome with emotion when they found the right dress. Mitchie only nodded her head, her hands going to wipe the tear that had escaped her eyes. She and Karen walked out into the room to show the dress to her mother and Caitlyn.
Connie gasped when she saw her daughter come toward her. She put her hand over her mouth and struggled to hold back her tears. Her daughter looked like a bride. Her eyes were sparkling and she looked happy. She could practically see Mitchie walking down the aisle towards Shane. Caitlyn has a similar reaction. She saw Mitchie look like this once before… when she was telling her that she and Shane were getting married. She had that glint in her eye and that smile on her face. "Mitchie you look beautiful," her mother said. Mitchie couldn't hold it in any longer. She started crying. "This is the one…" she whispered. The consultant smiled and nodded. Karen brought Mitchie back to the dressing room and helped her out of the dress, before leaving to take care of the sale. Mitchie changed into her street clothes and left the room to go by her mother and Caitlyn.
When their business was taken care of, they made their way back home. Mitchie had a huge grin on her face when they walked into their apartment. She saw Shane and smiled. Things were falling into place. Her life was perfect.
