A/N: Just THREE more! We're getting there! Here's a nice little chapter of the girls shopping for wedding/bridesmaid dresses.

Octavia

"Holy fucking shit!"

We walked into the wedding store and I was in Heaven! Bridesmaid and wedding dresses were everywhere! Shoes and jewelry made it even better!

Clarke and Harper were as excited as me, but we had to practically drag Raven and Lexa into the shop. My mother, Anya, Indra and Abby were going to meet us here in fifteen minutes, which gave us enough time to gawk and decide. Without the parents, we wouldn't get anything done. Raven and Lexa just wouldn't look and Clarke, Harper, and I would look at everything.

Fifteen minutes later, they arrived. Mom arrived first, then Anya and Indra arrived together a few minutes later, followed by Abby.

"Anya, Indra, you're on Lexa Duty. Make sure she gets a fucking dress. Scratch that, dresses. A wedding dress and a bridemaid dress. Bridesmaid dress first, we're getting together everything for mine first, then we're getting together everything for Clarke and Lexa's after. She. Needs. A. Dress!" I ordered. "Bridemaid dress: has to be along the purple and black theme. All purple is okay, but no plain black. So a purple dress or a black and purple dress. Style doesn't matter, but it is an outdoor wedding with a reception indoors."

We all split off. Harper and Clarke went their own way giggling, Abby took it upon herself to make sure Raven actually looked at and picked out a dress, Indra and Anya went with Lexa as she's be the most difficult to work with, and with a very nervous breath, my mother guided me over the wedding gowns.

….

"We've been looking at dresses for two hours, Mom! I'm not going to find one, this is hopeless." I was beginning to become frustrated and slightly annoyed.

"Octavia. Breathe. We'll find a dress," she out her hands on my shoulders. "Weddings are stressful and crazy, but once you're on that alter, baby girl, it'll be worth it."

I nodded, wrapping my arms around her as I buried my face into the crook of her neck. She rubbed my back lovingly.

"Octavia," she whispered. "I think I see a perfect one."

I pulled away and she led me to the dress. "Wow," I breathed out, reaching the beautiful gown. It was a strapless dress, a shimmery white that hugged tight around the upper body and hung loosely yet slender at the skirt. It was perfect.

"This is the one."

I ended up easily picking a pair of white heels.

My veils hung to the floor, a simple hair clip one. I had already decided to have my hair pulled into an up-do, so it's work perfectly. My mom helped me pick out a beautiful necklace and earrings. I almost had a heart attack at the prices but she waved it off, telling me she had it covered.

We met up with everyone. We were all measured and I looked at what everyone picked out. Raven had a simple black dress with a purple bow and neckline and black kitten heels. Harper had a long purple gown with short sleeves and purple heels. Clarke had a beautiful floor length deep purple dress with one inch sleeves and black heels. And Lexa—thank God!—has a beautiful knee-length black dress that was sleeveless with a beautiful lavender bow and purple sandals with a small heel.

"Good job, Anya and Indra."

Indra walked over to me. "Show me the dress, child." I smiled hesitantly and handed her the dress—that fit perfectly and needed very little adjustments—and she looked in awe. "Such a beautiful dress."

Clarke

"There's so many of them!" I gawked at the wedding dresses. My mother chuckled as I pawed through them. Like Octavia, it took a while. I was on the verge of giving up. Now I see why Lexa didn't want to come dress shopping. Like, damn! This was so hard!

"Lexa!" I called desperately after an hour.

She walked over with a smirk on her face. "Having trouble, Klark?"

"Well, yeah! This is so…difficult!"

"No, it isn't."

Wait—what? Lexa wasn't having trouble with this at all? What the hell?

"It isn't?"

"Lexa found her dress within the first ten minutes," Anya told me, walking over to us. "Shocked the hell out of me, but she did. Took her minutes to pick out the fucking shoes and jewelry, too."

I placed the back of my hand over Lexa's forehead. "You okay, there?"

Mom and Anya laughed. "Yes, Clarke. I just had better luck than you and O."

"Show me."

She shook her head, grinning. "It's bad luck."

I folded my arms. "Since when are you superstitious, Lexa?"

She shrugged.

"At least help me find one."

"Oh, that'll be easy."

Mom huffed. She'd been looking with me for an hour and neither of us could find anything. But Lexa? Not even five minutes later, she was calling me over to see a dress that's she said was perfect.

And holy crap, she was right.

The dress was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. It shimmered under the lights. A lacy strap went around the neck, the upper part was tight but not constraining, and the skirt puffed out—not like in the movies when it was puffy as hell, but just enough puff so it wasn't overdoing it or making it impossible to move—and the skirt was almost swirled. It was…gorgeous.

For someone who hated dresses, Lexa definitely had an eye for them!

I got a pair of simple silver sandals with a heel and beautiful diamond jewelry. I didn't see a veil I liked, but mom said we still had some time before I had to find one.

…..

Lexa

I was in love with my dress. Indra and Anya were both very shocked when I picked out a dress after only ten minutes of looking. It was lacy. Very lacy. But I loved it. The whole upper part was all lace and showed off the skin in between the lacy parts, the skirt was long and layered with the top layer being lacy. The two inch sleeves were also lace. But it wasn't so lacy that it was overdoing it. Not at all.

It did take a bit for them to convince me to wear heels, even if it was a very small heel. The sandals with a small heel were gorgeous, and so were the jewelry. I honestly didn't care so much on how the dresses or shoes looked like. All I know was that I was going to be marrying the most important person in the world to me. Klark kom Skaikru.

"How'd it go, girls?" Jake asked as Clarke, Aurora, Octavia, and I walked through the door.

"Very well," Aurora responded.

"We have the perfect dresses. And Lexa, believe it or not, had the easiest time shopping for dresses."

Jake turned to me. "You were all overthinking it. Of course, I had it easy. I knew what I was looking for and found it, you guys were on the verge of panic attacks."

"On the verge?" Aurora interrupted. "Octavia started to have one."

"Mom!"

"Sorry, sweetheart, but it's true!"

She just rolled her eyes and Clarke laughed. "It was a very…interesting day."

"Interesting, indeed," I agreed.

"Who wants cookies and hot chocolate?" Jake asked suddenly.

With a small cheer, we all sat around the table, enjoying one of our last times being together before everything changed.
