Hayley's pov

Cory and lea went out about 3 hours ago; I was awaiting the return of them for the result of the proposal. I knew it was going to be yes, but she didn't know that I knew everything. I was lounging in my room in my pyjamas watching how I met your mother, I loved this show. I always got annoyed because I wanted ted and robin to be together, but robin was marrying Barney. 'I need to get out more' as I said this, I opened up my laptop and scrolled through my dashboard on tumblr reblogging gifs of cats in shoes and gif sets of the shows I always watched.

I heard a slam from downstairs; I thought this was a bad sign. I shut my laptop, grabbed my dressing gown and ran downstairs. I walked into the living room, Cory was pacing and lea was sat with her head in her hands. I walked over and put my arm around lea looking at Cory. I was so confused, we set everything out perfect, it was a no fault plan; well obviously there was a fault. 'What happened?' that was all I could manage to say, I was confused at the scene.

'What didn't happen?' lea said, she still had her head in her hands. 'Dinner was perfect, walk through central park was perfect, the proposal on Bow Bridge was perfect, I mean, I GOT ENGAGED TODAY!' she suddenly jumped up, grabbing me and crush hugged me. I was still so confused.

'Wait, you said yes? But you were pacing, you were head holding' they both had the biggest smiles on their faces and then the light bulb came on, 'YOU TRICKED ME.' I slapped both their arms, they laughed at my reaction and I couldn't help but join.

'It was perfect; I couldn't have done it without you, thank you Hayley.' Cory said this and brought me into a hug. I was shocked by this, and so was lea, but she looked on with a mixture of shock and happiness.

'You're welcome!' I hugged him back!

'Well Cory and I are going to celebrate!' lea and Cory walked into the kitchen; I started walking up the stairs to my room. 'Oi Hayley, do me a favour?'

'Yeah sure, anything for you lea!'

'Throw me one of your famous Hayley parties for my engagement party?' she said handing me her phone book.

'I thought you'd never ask' I grabbed the book and ran to my room smiling.


I was woken up by my cousin opening my curtains; I rolled over in my bed and put a pillow over my head. I mean, lea got engaged yesterday and I'm happy for her, but nobody wakes me up and I bet it is like 9 in the morning! It's a Saturday!

'Leave me alone lee!' I sort of shouted at her, when she removed the pillow from my face.

'Get up lazy, its 1o'clock in the afternoon and you have a party to plan!' she threw the pillow back at me and left the room.

Okay so it wasn't as early as I thought, but still, nobody wakes me up. I groggily got out of bed and had a shower. I had to have it cold so I woke up. I got out and put my leggings on with a the wanted jumper, it was so baggy and so comfortable. As I sat on my bed, I grabbed leas phone book and flicked through, yep, I don't know any of these people, I mean I know Chris, Jon, Dianna, Jenna, Naya and Mark, but the rest are strangers.

I was about to call Dianna when Cory and lea burst into my room. I literally threw the phone and book in the fair and I fell off the bed, it was such a shock. When lea and Cory stopped laughing and I sat on the bed, they told me why scaring the shit out of me was necessary.

'You tell her Lee'

'No you tell her Cor' they were both full of joy and cutely arguing, but I just wanted to know what was going on.

'ONE OF YOU TELL ME!'

'We spoke about the wedding and the party and…' Lea took an unnecessary pause, I was just staring at her getting slightly inpatient.

'You can invite Monica!' Lea literally shouted at me, I was shocked, I couldn't even move. 'I mean, you only know like 5 of my friends, you know none of Cory's and we know you miss her, and we would like to get to know her, so invite her!' they were stood in my doorway smiling, and I just ran and hugged them!

'Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!' I was so happy that Monica was invited; I hadn't seen her in person in about 4-5months.

'You're welcome, we thought it was only fair, you've been so helpful' Cory hugged me again.

'Now we will leave, go get planning girl!' Lea kissed my cheek and left with Cory.

As soon as they left, I grabbed my laptop and logged into Skype. I smiled when I saw Monica was already logged on, and I called her. She answered in 3 rings.

'HAYLEY!' 'MONICA!' after the whole 'how are you, how's college, how's home' conversation I got straight to the point.

'I have some news!' I was smiling.

'I can tell you have been smiling the whole conversation, freakishly smiling!' she laughed; I couldn't help but laugh with her.

'Well, as I told you, Cory and I have been getting on, well, me and him planned a proposal together!' she squealed, she loves weddings and all that, 'wait, I haven't told you the whole thing yet!' she apologised, 'he took Lea to fantino for dinner, an Italian restaurant, then they walked through central park and went to bow bridge, and he asked her to marry him and she said yes!' we both squealed, I wasn't a big romance person, but I was so happy. 'Anyway, Lea asked me to plan her engagement party..'

'A Hayley party? Oh god is she sure?' she laughed.

'Shut up, my parties are amazing! Anyway, they just said to me that, well I can invite you! So how about it?' she literally screamed, I didn't expect this reaction, I mean she has met Lea once, I knew they got on, but I think it's the whole wedding situation. 'So that's a no?'

Monica and I soon hung the Skype call up and I sat back on my bed, I grabbed the phone and book off the floor from when they scared me. And I started ringing the friends.

I had to explain the date, time and place to about 50 people. It was fun at first, I mean Dianna, Naya, Amber, Heather and Jenna were all so excited that they were getting married and that there was going to be a party. Naya told Mark while we were on the phone and he cheered, it made me giggle. The boys were pretty much the same as Mark; Kevin, Harry, Chord and Darren were so happy; you could hear the beam in their voice. Chris and Jon, I swear I heard them start to cry, this made tears fill my eyes too, they were so happy for them it was contagious.

I then hit the work friends, they were all so droned voiced, and it was literally a bore to speak to them. But it was a 2 minute phone call for each, I couldn't last longer, I told them and they were like 'okay…' not even a little bit of happiness. Wow. The last person I had to call was someone called Grant; I had made loads of calls before this, mine and Lea's family, Cory's family and their friends. He sounded so sweet though, I most of come off as really horrible, but I didn't mean to.

As I finished on the phone with him, I sighed and lay back into my bed. It had taken me 3 hours to plan the whole party in the home, ring everyone and then ring back some people to ask for their help on the day of the party. I was so relieved it was over. I pulled myself off of my bed and went downstairs to make food. When I told Lea and Cory the plans they both hugged me and kept saying thank you. This party better be good now.


Monica's pov

It was so good seeing Hayley again, even though it was just over Skype, and it was good seeing her happy again. We were on Skype for about an hour and a half, maybe longer. When we hung up, I literally jumped back onto my bed; Alison was out for the day so I was alone for the whole call. I couldn't help but smile, I mean I had only met Lea once and I didn't know the groom or any of their friends, but a wedding is a wedding!

I was alone for a further 3 hours, I was lay on my bed watching the new batman, the dark knight rises, I literally loved all the movies, but I had this on repeat. I wasn't really paying attention this time though, as every five minutes my phone was going off. It had been just over 2 months since me and Chord met, and we had been on 3 dates, our fourth is tonight. I literally couldn't hold my excitement in, but I couldn't get ready until Alison came home.

When Alison walked through the door, I attacked with questions, which dress, what make-up, what hairstyle. It took me about an hour to get ready. We were talking about Lea and Cory's wedding while I was adding the final touches.

'Do you know anyone?' she asked, while lounging on her bed.

'Nope, just Hayley and her family, but at the party, just Hayley and Lea!'

'Seems fun!' she was so unenthusiastic. I got the hint she didn't really like me talking about Hayley, but I couldn't help it sometimes.

The imaginary light bulb lit up above my head. 'Come with me.' I literally shouted in her face. She moved the magazine that was covering her face, it was a twilight special, and I'm surprised she moved it at all.

'You what? I know no one!'

'Same here, we will know each other!' I was so adamant to get her on board.

'No, just go on your own!' she went to read her magazine.

'There is bound to be cute lads, I mean its New York, full of Broadway hopers, COME ON YOU HAVE TO COME WITH ME!' I don't like begging but, I didn't want to be on my own.

'Fine, I'll come to New York with you.' She smiled at me as I hugged her. 'Now go you'll be late for your date.'

I was so happy Alison was coming with me to New York, I hope Hayley doesn't mind.
