I Do Not Own CSI
"Hey Cath" Sara said waving her towards the booth
"Hey Sara, wow look at you"
"What, do I have something on my face" She said wiping her mouth
"No you look fine you also look like you got laid last night"
That comment made Sara blush bright red.
"That good huh?"
"And then some. We finally got some time to ourselves last night. Matthew was finally in his own bed"
"Damn I'm jealous I haven't had sex in longer then I can remember"
"Hey I was in you're spot for a long time before Gil and I got together I know how you feel"
"I think most women know how I feel and it sucks. Between work and Lindsay I haven't had much time to myself. You wouldn't happen to know anyone available would you?"
"None that live in Vegas sorry Cat"
"It was worth a shot. Ok enough about men let's talk weddings. DO you have any ideas because I have a few that I'd like to run by you?"
"All that Gil wants is that it's small, just close friends and family and I want the same thing. You guys and the techs and maybe a few out of town friends, you guys are my family"
"Ok small wedding. That's easier. Any idea where you want it?"
"Outside, maybe at the park then the reception could be at a nice restaurant somewhere"
"What about Victoria Park. They have that beautiful pond there with flowers and trees everywhere"
"Gil took me there for our third date. It was beautiful. Do you think they would let us have it there?"
"Most likely. I know that they hold the occasional wedding there, plus it helps that I know the park manager"
"Do I want to know how Cath?"
"Oh he was part of a case years ago. A body was found stabbed to death and he helped solve it. Ever since then we have kept in touch when I wanted to have a party or something there"
"Anything else?"
"I want Matthew to be the ring bearer"
"I think that can be easily arranged. Now do you have any dress ideas because I have the perfect idea for a dress"
"Nothing to big and no frills just something sleek and elegant"
"The I have the perfect dress for you. Do you have time to go out and look for a bit?"
"I guess but"
"No buts just follow me to this place off the strip ok"
"OK"
Twenty minutes later Sara was hopping out of her car
"Cath what is this place?"
"I found this place years ago. The woman who owns it is a very blunt woman she'll tell you if it looks right or not trust me. She has said some things to me that I will not repeat but she's good and knows what looks good"
"Ok I trust you, lead the way" Sara said as Catherine led her into the small shop
"Catherine" Sally shouted. She was a short woman not much taller the 5 feet
"Hi Sally"
"You brought someone new for me hi I'm Sally"
"Sara" she said shaking her hand
"Well Sara what kind of dress are we looking for"
"Wedding dress"
"Well then let me take a good look at you. Take a spin for me let me look at you"
A raised eyebrow to Catherine and she talked
"Trust me Sara just spin"
Sara spun slowly and Sally commented
"Legs woman look at you, nice backside too I bet you're man loves that" Sally said as Sara blushed
"I knew it! Gil's an ass man isn't he" Catherine exclaimed
"If you must know it's an ass and leg thing and seeing as I have both you can say they get a fair amount of attention" Sara said while blushing
"Follow me Sara I have a few ideas for dresses that should suit you. Do you have anything that you don't want on the dress"
"I just don't want a big Cinderella dress, just something simple"
"Of course, we want to show off the legs not hide it under a whole bunch of fabric" Sally said as she pulled out four dresses
"Here try this one on first, there's a changing room just over there"
"Ok, I'll be out in a minute" Sara said as she went to try the first dress on.
"Hey Catherine can you zip me up" Sara said coming out of the room
"Sure" she said as Sara stepped up on the podium in front if the three mirrors
"What do you think Sara" asked Catherine
"I don't think so Cath, it's a little uncomfortable"
"And you look uncomfortable in it Sara, go take it off and try on the next one" Sally ordered
"Yas mam"
The next dress Sara came out in was a beautiful dress but still didn't fit right
"Oh honey take it off, it's bunching at the waist and I don't think altering will make that fit better" Sally said pushing her back into the fitting room
For the better part of the next hour Sara tried on dress after dress until she had just about given up
"Maybe my dress won't be here Cath" Sara said from inside the changing room
"Well we can always look somewhere else Sara"
"Nonsense Catherine I have one more dress that I forgot about" Sally said handing the dress to Sara
"Last one Sara if that's not it you and Catherine can try somewhere else" Sally said as she sat down beside Catherine to wait for Sara to come out. Minutes went by and Sara still did not come out of the fitting room
"Sara you doing ok in there" asked Catherine. Sara still did not come out
"Sara how's it look" Catherine said getting up ready to go into her fitting room to drag her out. Sara finally snapped out of her daze and realized Catherine was talking to her
"I think this is the one Cat" Sara said coming out of the fitting room.
Catherine gasped and Sally smiled
"Told ya I would find you a dress now get up on the podium so we can get a good look at you Sara" Sally ordered
"Sara you look gorgeous" Catherine said amazed
Sara was dressed in a beautiful white dress that ran to the floor and had a very small train, just enough for an effect. It buttoned up in the back and also had a tie around her neck to keep it up. The front came down in a elegant V-neck that showed just a small amount of cleavage. A yellow ribbon wrapped around her waist. The bottom layer was silk and layered over the top was lace. All in all it fit Sara like a glove. Every curve was showed off and her long legs were shown off as the dress clung close with a small flare at the bottom
"This is it Cath, this is my dress" Sara said turning around and smiling
"I think so to Sara. You're going to take Gil's breath away you know that"
"I hope so, I love making him speechless"
"You've done it enough Sara. We have all been in the room when you have said something to leave Gil's mouth hanging open. Hodges even told us about the grey hair comment"
"Yeah well I felt bad for David he was coloring over his grey with a sharpie marker.
And I meant what I said grey hair can be attractive. It just suits some men better you know"
"I know. I actually like grey hair on some men"
"Ok time for me to take it off, if I look at it much longer the wedding is going to be tomorrow in the little white wedding chapel"
"Well then take it off because were having the wedding in the park"
Twenty minutes later Sara and Catherine were walking out of the dress shop. Catherine held Sara's dress.
"Ok so I'll keep the dress at my house for the time being this way Gil can't peek"
"Thank you Catherine, really. I never really had many girlfriends growing up and even though we didn't always get along you helping me today meant a lot"
"It means a lot t me to Sara. Believe it or not I don't have a lot of girlfriends to talk to. Between work and home I don't have a lot of time for my friends. So doing this with you is nice. Feels like I have someone around that I can talk girl stuff to ya know"
"I do because it feels the same way for me.
Look Catherine I'm just going to ask this, if you don't want to do it that's fine. Will you be my maid of honour Cath?
I know it's a lot to ask it's just that like you I don't have many people to ask and"
"Sara stop rambling" Catherine said while smiling
"I'd be honoured to be you're maid of honour. Hey this means I can plan the bachlorette party" She said while embracing Sara in a hug and laughing
Ok chapter 12 is here hope you enjoyed it!
When i think of a dress Sara would wear i always come back to a dress that showes off her bidy not a big cinderella dress, just wouldn't fit Sara. And just so you all know there will be a bachlorette party and its going to be a fun one for the girls.
