Last minute things
Eddie and Jamie's Apartment
East Village, New York
Jamie scrounged around the apartment looking for his wallet and keys as Eddie got her stuff together as well. She chuckled at the sight of her fiancé scrounging around the apartment for his stuff. "I told you Reagan to put the stuff in one place so we can find easily."
Jamie turned and smirked at her. "Well if you didn't attack me last night, I would have."
Eddie smirked back. "I couldn't help it if you looked good in that outfit last night."
Jamie chuckled and found the items he was looking for. "Got them."
"Great let's go." Eddie answered as she headed towards the door with Jamie right behind her. She pulled out her phone. "Great, mom is already texting us."
"I thought we weren't late." Jamie answered as they walked out with him checking the door before they walked down the hallway.
"We're not, but she wants us to swing by the florist to check and see how everything is coming along." Eddie answered as they arrived at the elevator. They waited as the elevator was on their way to them. Eddie looked at Jamie. "When is Danny meeting you to pick up the rings?"
"As soon as I drop you off at the dress shop." Jamie answered as the elevator doors opened and they stepped on. He put his arm around her. "Then we meet back up at the church after my tux fitting right?"
"Yep." Eddie answered as the doors opened and out they walked towards the doors to their building. They walked outside to the car and got in. As Jamie pulled out into traffic, Eddie pulled out her phone as it rang with another message. "Sarah needs us to stop by and double check with the seating chart and room layout."
Jamie sighed. "Alright after we meet with Father McNally. Damn, I was hoping not to add any more to our already busy day."
Eddie chuckled as she put on their favorite radio station. "At least we have Whitesnake to ease the pain."
They shared a laugh as Jamie worked his way through the streets. The first location they arrived at was the florist shop. Jamie parked the mustang as Eddie waited for him outside the shop. They walked inside and Carla was waiting for them with a smile on her face. "Jamie, Eddie come on and see how your arrangements are coming along."
Eddie and Jamie nodded and followed Carla towards the back of the store where they saw Rebecca and her assistants working on the floral arrangements. Rebecca looked up and smiled and walked over to give Eddie a hug and shake Jamie's hand. "Hey you two. Everything is on track to be completed in time for the wedding."
Jamie nodded as Eddie and her mom went over and inspected the table center pieces. She and her mom took several minutes before coming back over. Eddie looked at Rebecca. "When are you sending them over?"
"Day of the wedding. That way there is less chance for them to wilt, and my crew can continue checking on them." Rebecca replied with a look of concern on her face. "Is there a problem?"
Eddie shook her head no. "Nope. Just wondering."
Rebecca chuckled as she came over. "Is there anything else I can help with you or answer?"
"Bouquets and boutonnieres for the wedding party and Eddie?" Carla asked.
"All set. They will be delivered to the church and where ever Eddie is getting ready." Rebecca answered.
Carla smiled at the response. "That's all I have. Jamie?"
Jamie shook his head no. So the three of them said bye to Rebecca and made their way outside. Jamie looked at Eddie. "Alright, I will see you at the church in about 2 hours?"
Eddie nodded. "Sounds good babe. See you there."
Jamie nodded and kissed Eddie on the lips and gave Carla a peck on the cheek before leaving to go meet Danny for the rings and go get his last fitting of his tux before the ceremony, while Carla and Eddie went to the dress shop for the last fitting of the wedding dress. Thirty minutes after leaving the flower shop, Jamie pulled up outside Mr. Petroski Jewelers. Jamie jumped out of the car and walked towards the door where he saw his brother leaning up against the building. Danny shook his head. "Late kid. You know I had to convince my Lieutenant to let me off to help you with this."
Jamie smirked at his brother. "You're the best man Danny. You are supposed to hang on to the rings until the wedding."
"I know that, but I still have to work today." Danny replied with a smirk on his face. He held opened the door for his brother and they both walked in. "I also picked up the extra tour today so I can have Friday off to help you out with anything you may need the day before the wedding."
Jamie smiled at his brother as they approached the counter. "That's sweet."
Danny tossed Jamie a look as Mr. Petroski came out and met them. "Ah Jamie and Danny Reagan. Welcome. Danny been a while. How is the family?"
"Good Mr. Petroski, thanks for asking." Danny stated with a smile and a handshake. "How's your wife and daughter doing?"
"Good. I'll tell them you asked about them." Mr. Petroski answered with a smile. He then turned to Jamie. "Jamie you are looking well. How's the new job at your new station I heard you have?"
"Not too bad Mr. Petroski. It's been pretty good." Jamie answered with a handshake and a smile as well. "Is everything good Mr. Petroski?"
"Yes everything is set. You and Edit will enjoy the rings I promise you." Mr. Petroski answered as he pulled the case that held the rings from his the locked case behind him. He closed case and turned back to the pair. He handed the ring case to Jaime. "Here you go Jamie."
"Thanks Mr. Petroski." Jamie answered. He opened up the lid and inspected the rings. The matching bands with small diamonds in it that Mr. Petroski told a story about with to him and Eddie. Jamie smiled as he remembered the story and nodded as he set the rings back in case." Perfect Mr. Petroski, what do I owe you for the final bill."
"Hundred Jamie." Mr. Petroski said with a smile on his face. Jamie smiled as well as he handed over his bank card and a minute later Mr. Petroski returned with the receipt. "Here you go Jamie. I wish you and Eddie a long and happy life."
"Thank you Mr. Petroski." Jamie answered with a handshake and a smile. After Danny said bye to Mr. Petroski, he and Jamie walked outside. Jamie looked at his brother. "Thanks Danny."
"No problem kid." Danny answered as he smiled at his younger brother. He took the case from Jamie and started towards his cruiser. "I'll have Linda put these somewhere she can find them."
"Thanks Danny." Jamie called out. He started towards his car, then spun around. "Don't forget about your final fitting."
"Got it Kid." Danny replied with a wave of the hand.
Jamie chuckled and pulled out his phone to which he sent a text to Linda to remind Danny about his final fitting. He climbed into to his car and headed towards the tux across the river in Brooklyn. At Jessica's Wedding Boutique, Eddie was on the stand with her mom sitting behind her watching as Jessica took her measurements again. Carla smiled. "You look great baby. Are you getting excited or nervous?"
"A little bit of both." Eddie replied with a smile on her face as she watched Jessica finish up with her measurements. "What is the verdict Jessica?"
"I have to take it out only slightly." Jessica replied a smile. She chuckled as she stood up and stepped back to let Eddie take in the sight. "What do you think Eddie?"
"I love it." Eddie replied as she observed herself in the mirror. Though she was tough, she often dreamt of what her wedding day would look like especially with Jamie when they first partnered up. Now she was living the dream. "Oh Jessica. Thank you."
"Your welcome." Jessica replied smiling at both mother and daughter. She stepped down off the platform. "Just hand me the dress when you are ready to leave."
Eddie nodded and looked at her mother who was also beaming and fighting tears in her eyes. "OH mom."
"Can't help it. Not often my daughter gets married." Carla answered coming over and planting a kiss on Eddie's cheek. She wiped away the tears. "So what is next for you and Jamie?"
"Have to meet him at the church, so I better get going." Eddie answered with a smile on her face.
Carla nodded as Eddie walked down off the platform and towards the dressing room to get changed. Across the river in Brooklyn, Jamie was on a platform himself as Mr. Berkowitz himself remeasured Jamie. "Ahh Jamieson, you have been pretty much steady since your last measurement. I don't have to do much more than take the jacket out a bit."
"Is it tight?" Jamie asked.
"Just a little in the shoulders, but not by much." Mr. Berkowitz answered as he stepped down off the platform. He stepped back and looked Jamie over. "Your soon to be bride is a very lucky lady."
Jamie shook his head. "No Mr. Berkowitz, I am very lucky to have her."
Mr. Berkowitz smiled at the comment. "I can't argue with that. Drop your tux off in the front when you are ready to leave."
Jamie nodded as Mr. Berkowitz left the soon to be groom to observe himself one more time in the mirror. He nodded to himself. After a couple years of dancing around each other, and a few bumps, Eddie was the one. She stuck by him through thick and thin. Jamie thought to himself. "I am truly lucky to have her."
Jamie walked down off the platform and quickly changed dropping the tux off with Mr. Berkowitz before walking outside and heading out to his charge. He checked his phone. He wasn't late, but he hoped traffic wasn't bad on the way to St. Brennan's for their meeting with Father McNally.
Eddie walked around outside the front of the church as she checked her phone. Jamie wasn't late, but she was getting nervous. She knew he had a final… The familiar sound of Jamie's mustang pulling up caused her to come back to reality. She smiled as he got out and walked over to her and pulled her into a hug. "Missed me that much huh?"
"Always glad to see you." Jamie replied with a smile. He kissed the top of her head. "And yes, I always miss you when I am not with you."
Eddie smiled and grabbed his hand. "Come on. Father McNally is waiting."
Jamie let her take the lead and followed her into the church. It took a couple minutes, but once they arrived at Father McNally's office, they knocked on the door. Father McNally looked up and smiled at them. "Come in you two."
Jamie and Eddie walked in and hugged the father who showed them to the chairs in front of the desk. They declined his offer for coffee. He smiled as he pulled out the paperwork from his drawer. "Now this is absolute final draft of the service. If you want any changes, please let me know now."
Eddie and Jamie looked over the service. It had everything they wanted in it. From the prelude to the wedding party entrance, what Eddie would come the aisle to, readings and so on. They nodded and handed it back to Father McNally. Jamie smiled. "Everything looks good father."
"Excellent. Then tomorrow after the service, I will have the staff begin printing these ups." Father McNally answered with a smile on his face. "Is there anything else I can help you with?"
Jamie and Eddie looked at each other before shaking their heads. They shook Father McNally's hands before walking out of the office and the church. Hand in hand they walked towards Jamie's car. Eddie was smiling. "So its really happening?"
"I think it was really happening the moment you said yes?" Jamie said with a smirk on his face. He dodged the arm slap as he opened her door for her. "Yes its really happen. In a few days you will be Mrs. Edith "Eddie" Janko Reagan."
"Like that sound of that." Eddie replied with a smile on her face.
Twenty minutes later they were walking into the lobby of the Williamsburg Hotel where Sarah was waiting for them. She gave Eddie a kiss and Jamie a hug. "Sorry about this you two, but I just wanted to double check with you about the layout. There is a wedding the day before yours and after it ends, the overnight crew has to move things around."
Eddie and Jamie nodded their understanding and followed Sarah to her office where she presented a diagram on the computer screen. "Now this is your lay out."
"Yeah, that is what we want." Eddie answered after studying the diagram for a minute. "What did the other folks want?"
Sarah brought up the other diagram. "Their's has the dance floor towards the front and the wedding part table across the dance floor. So it wont take much, but I wanted to check with you guys first before I had my crew set up your reception during the course of the night."
Jamie nodded. "It's alright Sarah. Thanks for checking. One question though?"
"Yes it will be finished by the time the flower centerpieces arrive." Sarah answered with a smile on her face. She got up and so did Eddie and Jamie. "Thanks for coming in you two. Looking forward to the party."
Eddie smile. "Us too."
Jamie nodded his agreement before giving a hug and a kiss and walking out the office towards the lobby and the car. Eddie looked at Jamie and smiled. "Always the worrier aren't you?"
"It was a honest question." Jamie answered with a smile as they arrived at the lobby as they continued to walk through it. "But it did have me worried though?"
"I know it did babe, but they are professional and they do this for a living." Eddie answered. She then gave him a quick kiss on the cheek. "So that is it. Everything is checked as of now. So now what?"
"We go home, and eat." Jamie answered with a smile as they walked out of the hotel and towards the car.
"Oh, that burger place down the road from the apartment has a special going on today." Eddie answered with a smile on her face. "Come on Reagan. I'll even buy."
"Well then, if you are buying." Jamie answered with a smirk.
Eddie smirked back at him as they reached the car and climbed in. A moment later they pulled out of the lot ready for their big day.
