Chapter 37 –
December passed and the new year had begun.
Mikki had gone to San Francisco with Blaine for Christmas celebrations with his family and they thankfully to Blaine's delight had taking a liking to Mikki and were happy to welcome her into the family.
Rachel was still dating Brody; and Puck had come to the realisation that there may never be a chance of them getting back together, so he vowed that the new year would see him try to move on with his life and find love; but also not rushing into it like he had with Marley.
Rachel was also still busily trying to find a new show to work on. And since the months were the new Broadway shows would be starting to cast since just before the Tony season was a popular time for them to start; there was plenty of Broadway, off Broadway and off off Broadway shows looking for people to fill the many roles.
Sam was going to be filming a small role in a movie that Artie was coming back to direct in early February, and Brittany along with teaching at Julliard was also still busy with teaching her other classes outside of the school.
Friday afternoon, Blaine and Mikki were in a little bakery, where they were maybe thinking of getting their wedding cake from; since they had decided to have their wedding in April during the spring, which was only four months away, and thus meant there was a lot to do in a short period of time.
Blaine who had a free afternoon from Julliard, had met Mikki at the bakery and the two of them were now looking at the possible choices that they could have.
"Oh this is so bad" said Mikki, as they looked at the cakes that were on display.
"Why?" asked Blaine, wrapping his arms around Mikki's waist.
"Because with all the sampling of cakes, I'm going to gain like five pounds" she replied.
"I'm sure you won't, and I honestly don't think you could eat that much cake" said Blaine.
"You sure about that, because some of these cakes look so delicious and it's going to be really difficult deciding on what we want our cake to actually be" said Mikki.
Blaine laughed.
"And do we want to go for a small cake that we could cut, and then have little cupcakes for everyone. Or do we want to go the more traditional way of having like the full cake and then having to have it cut up for everyone..." Blaine kissed her.
"You're doing it again" he said, with a laugh.
"Hmm, but how do you know I'm not doing it on purpose, so you will kiss me to stop me from the insanity" said Mikki, with a laugh.
"I wouldn't doubt that you are rambling, just to get kisses" said Blaine, with a laugh and kissed her again.
"Yep" replied Mikki with a laugh and kissed him.
"Blaine, is that you?" asked a female voice, that he instantly recognised. He stopped kissing Mikki and turned to the person who had spoke and Mikki looked at them also.
"Hey Tina" he said.
"Yeah, wow hi" she replied, looking at him and then Mikki, who in the instant made sure to slip her arm around Blaine; as if to say without words that he belongs to her now.
"How are you? How are you doing?" asked Blaine.
"I'm okay, doing well" replied Tina, as she held on to a box from the cake shop, with items that she had obviously purchased.
Blaine nodded.
"And you're clearly well, as is Mikki" said Tina, looking to her.
"Yeah, we're both good" replied Blaine.
"I see that" replied Tina.
"We're getting married in fact" said Mikki, now definitely stating her claim on Blaine to his ex girlfriend.
Tina looked at her in shock. "Married?" she asked.
"Yeah" replied Blaine.
"Wow, congratulations" said Tina.
"Thank you" said both Mikki and Blaine together.
"How long have you guys been together?" asked Tina.
"A little over six months" replied Mikki.
"Is that all, I thought it would be longer than that, if you're getting married" said Tina.
"Well I know that Mik is it for me and the one that I want to spend forever with, so why wait" said Blaine.
"I am sure the two of you are going to be very happy with one another. Because I clearly saw that you two deeply cared for one another even when we were together Blaine" said Tina.
"That we do and thank you" said Mikki, looking at her fiancé's former girlfriend.
Tina nodded.
"Well I will let you get back to deciding on the wedding cake options and I will take the cupcakes I came here to get for the girls at work" said Tina.
"It was lovely to see you again Tina" said Blaine.
"You too" she replied.
"Bye" said Mikki.
"Yes bye" replied Tina and she left the cake shop.
"Okay well that was awkward" said Blaine.
Mikki looked at him. "Why was it awkward?".
"Because seeing your ex with a new girl is bad enough. But seeing them with a girl who is now your fiancée and also someone you were friends with when you were dating the other girl. Yeah it's kind of awkward" said Blaine.
"Is that because you clearly liked me back then, and you think she knew about it" said Mikki, with a laugh.
Blaine just looked at Mikki and nodded.
"Okay yeah agree, awkward" replied Mikki with a laugh and kissed him.
"Yeah, let's taste some cakes" said Blaine, with a laugh breaking the kiss.
"Hmm, you read my mind" replied Mikki and the two of them stayed at the cake shop to sample some of the possible cake flavours that they might have for their wedding one.

Friday evening after Mikki and Blaine had chosen the cakes they wanted for the wedding. They along with Sam, Brittany and Puck, were sitting in the coffee shop.
"So yeah, that's what it will be kind of like" said Mikki, having sort of described the flavour of cake they were having for the wedding.
"I so have dibs on peppermint" said Sam, with a laugh.
"Yeah and orange here" said Brittany.
"No one but me and Blaine are getting the orange. If he's going to insist on smashing cake in my face, I at least get to have that part of it, all to myself" said Mikki.
Brittany pouted and the others laughed.
"Maybe we can save Britts a tiny bit of it" said Blaine.
Mikki looked at him and then pouted herself, and Blaine quickly kissed her.
"Maybe" replied Mikki, and the others including Brittany laughed.
"So have you decided on bridesmaids and groomsmen also?" asked Puck.
Mikki looked at him and nodded.
"We have, yeah" she replied.
"Okay, well it better be us here" said Sam.
"And what if it's not" replied Blaine.
"Refuse to ever speak with you again" said Sam.
"Gee thanks" replied Blaine, with a laugh.
"Seriously though, we need to know. Especially since if I am best man, which of course I will be. I need to start working on a speech for it" said Puck.
"Well actually I was going to have Cooper as my best man" said Blaine.
"Cooper" said Sam.
"Yeah, he's my big brother and kind of always imagined that it would be him up there with me" said Blaine.
"Exactly, which is why I have Kitty as my maid of honor. Besides it is something I did promise her when we were little, and that was if I did get married she would be that" said Mikki.
"So that's all you're having then? Just them two?" asked Brittany.
"I guess we should ask them, it would be the right thing to do" said Blaine.
"You're right" replied Mikki, looking at him with a smile.
"Sam, Noah. Would you like to be two of my groomsmen?" asked Blaine.
"Would be honored" said Sam.
"Yeah, you know I am in for that man. I will still make sure your brother lets me say something as well." said Puck.
"Awesome, but I forbid you to tell any really bad stories from college" replied Blaine, with a nod.
"Why you don't want Mik finding out about some stuff?" asked Puck, with a laugh.
"Oh please, she already knows it. It's my parents and some of my other family members, I don't want hearing that stuff" said Blaine, with a laugh also.
"Yes, I don't think those stories would go down particularly well" said Mikki, with a laugh as well.
"Do tell Puck, we don't know these stories I believe" said Sam.
"Yeah, please. Pretty please tell us" said Brittany.
"Maybe ask Blaine, to tell you them" said Puck, with a laugh.
"Come on man, you can't leave us hanging like this" said Sam.
"Yeah, just not here. Not exactly things I want to be speaking of in public" said Blaine, with a laugh.
"Ohhh, now intrigued" said Brittany, with a laugh.
"So who else are you having as bridesmaids, Mik?" asked Puck.
Mikki looked at her cousin and didn't say anything, and Brittany looked at her.
"Aren't you going to ask me to be a bridesmaid?" asked Brittany, sadly.
Mikki looked at her and laughed. "Of course, both you and Rachel are totally my bridesmaids".
"Yah, and I totally except" replied Brittany, standing from the chair she was sitting on and going and sitting next to Mikki on the sofa and giving her a hug.
Mikki laughed and returned the blonde's hug. "And I was actually hoping that Cynthia could be a bridesmaid as well" said Mikki.
"Cyndy, really?" asked Brittany.
Mikki nodded. "Yeah, because Blaine is also going to give Elly a ring and ask him to be a groomsmen, so going to be needing someone else for me, so it's even and all that".
Brittany nodded. "We can go and ask Cynthia tomorrow, and then possibly if Rachel can also, look at some dresses".
"Yeah, that be fun and I can Skype in Kitty, so she can be part of it as well" replied Mikki, with a nod.
"Ohh, this is exciting" said Brittany as Rachel came running into the coffee shop and over to the others.
"Guys, guys. I got it, I got the role" said Rachel.
"What, what role?" asked Puck, looking at her.
"Right, yeah okay yeah not enough info. But so excited" said Rachel.
"What role, Rach? You've auditioned for heaps" said Mikki, with a laugh.
Rachel looked at her and nodded. "Eliza Doolittle, they're putting "My Fair Lady" back on to Broadway and they said I am just perfect for it".
"Wow" said Blaine.
"I know" said Rachel, as she sat down in one of the armchairs.
"So when does it start?" asked Mikki.
"Umm, well we will start rehearsing it all soon, but it won't open to May when we start the previews" said Rachel.
"That's good then, means you can still be one of my bridesmaids" said Mikki.
Rachel looked at her in shock. "One of your bridesmaids?" she asked.
Mikki nodded. "That's if you want to"
"Of course I want to" replied Rachel, with a laugh.
"Okay, yeah cool that's great" replied Mikki.
"Yes and we're going dress shopping tomorrow, that's if you can come along" said Brittany.
"I can, I'm meant to be meeting Brody for lunch, but I can cancel that. He won't mind" said Rachel.
"And also as well we should say, if you do want Brody to be your plus one for the wedding then that is fine. But he won't be sitting with you obviously" said Mikki.
"Umm, I don't know if I'll ask him yet. It depends if he is working that day" said Rachel.
"Well if you do" said Blaine.
Rachel nodded.
"So it's okay if we bring dates then, even if we are in the wedding party?" asked Puck.
Blaine looked at him, as did the others.
"Of course" replied Blaine.
"Thinking of bringing someone, cous?" asked Mikki.
"Maybe. There's this girl at work, Lauren who is kind of cool and we have some stuff in common" said Puck.
"Okay, well yeah, if you want to it's fine" replied Blaine.
"Thanks" said Puck, looking at his watch. "She's actually meant to be here soon. So you can all meet her".
"Cool" said Sam.
Mikki looked over to Rachel, and saw the small frown on her face, and clearly she was not happy that Puck was indeed talking about dating someone else, even though she was very much with Brody.
"Any coffees wanted here?" asked Kurt, as he came over an picked up the cups that the others had been using earlier.
"If I could grab a tea Kurt, that would be great" said Rachel.
"Sure thing" replied Kurt.
Rachel nodded.
"And did I hear correctly from the loud conversation that you were having. You're going to be playing Eliza Doolittle in a new My Fair Lady production?" asked Kurt.
"I am" replied Rachel, with a smile.
"Wow, congratulations. I love the movie. Audrey is just perfection" said Kurt.
"Isn't she" replied Rachel.
"And I'm sure you will be just as" said Kurt.
Rachel looked at him and smiled. "Thanks Kurt".
"And if you want to give us a taste of what we're in store for with you in that role, feel free. Everyone loves it when you sing here" said Kurt.
"Yeah you should sing something Rachey" said Brittany.
"Well the songs from My Fair Lady, as beautiful as they are, I don't think this is the right setting for them" said Rachel.
"You choose Rachel, you're our little starlet" said Kurt, with a laugh.
"Umm, sure okay" she replied, with a laugh also.
"Please no, I get enough of it at home" said Sam, with a groan.
Rachel stood up and poked her tongue out at Sam and then looked at Blaine. "Do you know Maybe This Time, on the piano?" she asked.
Blaine shook his head.
"Oh, that's okay, if I can find the sheet music, will do it next time" said Rachel, and went to sit back down.
Blaine laughed. "Rach, I'm kidding. I know it, I teach jazz piano and that's one of the songs I get my students to play"
"Really" said Rachel.
Blaine nodded, and stood up.
"He's mean when he wants to be, you get use to it" said Mikki, with a laugh.
"Ohh, shush you" said Blaine, looking at her with a laugh.
"You don't mind playing it then?" asked Rachel.
"No of course not, sing away" replied Blaine, with a laugh.
Blaine went and sat at the piano that was up on the stage and Rachel grabbed one of the microphones.
"Hi everyone, so I have just found out I have gotten the lead role in My Fair Lady, and even though this song isn't from that particular musical, I thought I would give you a little performance of what you can could expect musically wise, when you come and see it" said Rachel.
She looked over to Blaine and gave him a quick nod, and he started to play the song.
Rachel began to sing, the whole of the coffee shop watching her.
"Maybe this time, I'll be lucky
Maybe this time, he'll stay
Maybe this time
For the first time
Love won't hurry away"
The coffee shop door opened and a woman of larger size walked in, taking off her jacket and hanging it and then headed over in the direction of where the others were, and more so to Puck.
Puck looked at her and gave her a wave as she did.
"Hey" she said, not caring that everyone else in the coffee shop was listening to Rachel singing.
Rachel frowned as she continued to sing, annoyed by the womans' lack of respect.
"He will hold me fast
I'll be home at last
Not a loser anymore
Like the last time
And the time before"
Puck indicated to the woman who had come in to be quiet, and she looked at him.
"Why?" she questioned, as Rachel kept on with her song, even though Puck's friend was obviously not interested in being quiet.
'Everybody loves a winner
So nobody loved me;
'Lady Peaceful,' 'Lady Happy,'
That's what I long to be
All the odds are in my favor
Something's bound to begin
It's got to happen, happen sometime
Maybe this time I'll win'
The woman sat down and looked up at Rachel and sighed loudly, not obviously impressed at all by the song that was being sung.
Mikki looked over to her and then over to Puck, who was now looking at Rachel singing again.
'Maybe this time, I'll be lucky
Maybe this time, he'll stay
Maybe this time
For the first time
Love won't hurry away'
Mikki sighed as she looked back up to the stage and Rachel singing, and looked over to Blaine who gave her a smile.
'He will hold me fast
I'll be home at last
Not a loser anymore
Like the last time
And the time before'
Mikki looked over to Puck, who was looking at Rachel still with a smile.
'Everybody loves a winner
So nobody loved me;
'Lady Peaceful,' 'Lady Happy,'
That's what I long to be
All the odds are in my favor
Something's bound to begin.
It's got to happen, happen sometime
Maybe this time,
maybe this time,
I'll win!'
Blaine finished playing the song and Rachel finished the song on a high note, which resulted in a round of applause from the patrons of the coffee shop; except Puck's friend, who just sighed loudly.
Rachel and Blaine went back down to where the others were, Rachel sitting in the arm chair she was in previously and Blaine going back to sitting next to Mikki.
"That was really good Rachey" said Brittany.
"Thanks Britts" she replied, looking over to where Puck's friend was sitting.
"So you must be Lauren?" asked Mikki, looking over to Puck's friend also.
"Yeah, how did you know that?" she asked.
"I'm Puck's cousin" replied Mikki.
"Oh, yeah you're the chick that is getting married to his best friend" said Lauren.
"Umm yeah I guess that would be me" said Mikki.
"And if you want to come along to it, as my date. Then that be cool" said Puck.
Lauren looked at him. "I don't really do weddings"
"What do you have against them?" asked Rachel, finding it slightly amusing that this girl that Puck could have liked was maybe against marriage.
"Well it's not what I have against them, it's more of the fact that why are only some people allowed to marry and not others. Until it's fair for all, I am boycotting weddings" said Lauren.
"Oh I hear you there" said Kurt, as he came over with the cup of tea for Rachel.
Lauren and all the others looked at him.
"Take it laws mean you can't marry in some states" said Lauren, looking to Kurt.
Kurt nodded. "Yep, kind of sucks. Don't see why there is such a huge deal over it".
"This better not mean you aren't going to come to Blaine and mine's wedding, because if so I will be finding a new coffee shop" said Mikki.
Kurt looked at her and laughed. "Promise will be there, if I get an invite that is".
"It's in the mail" said Blaine, with a laugh.
"It will be hand delivered" said Mikki, with a laugh.
"Okay, well you know I will be there" said Kurt, with a smile and went back over to the counter.
"And if you change your mind Lauren, the offer is there. I'm sure Mik and Blaine could put you on a table with someone like Kurt, so you guys can talk" said Puck.
"Thanks, but no thanks. I would feel funny being at a wedding of people I don't really know, and also where I don't really know any of the guests" said Lauren.
"Good, don't want her there" said Blaine, with a whisper to Mikki.
Mikki looked at him and laughed and gave him a quick kiss.
"Hmm, we should be getting on home sweetie, I want to give Kitty a quick call to let her know about what is happening tomorrow" said Mikki.
"Okay yeah sure" replied Blaine.
"Hey if you're not doing anything tomorrow, man. Since the girls will be out shopping, what say we have a gaming day, and I kick your butt on COD" said Sam.
Blaine looked at her friend and laughed. "Sure, sounds like a plan. Just come on over when Rach leaves, because obviously Mik will be leaving then too".
"And am I invited to this as well?" asked Puck.
"Sure we can teach Jayden how to play" said Sam, with a laugh.
"I'm sure Santana will be thrilled at that" said Mikki.
"Essential life skill knowing how to play video games" said Sam.
"Okay whatever you reckon" said Blaine, with a laugh.
"So we heading home, sweetie?" asked Mikki.
Blaine looked at her and nodded. "Yeah"
"We'll see you guys tomorrow" said Mikki.
"Sure, I will meet you here" said Brittany.
"Okay, see you then Britts" said Mikki, as she and Blaine stood up from the sofa.
"Text me, dude. When the girls leave" said Puck, looking to Blaine.
"I will" replied Blaine.
Mikki and Blaine then left the coffee shop, leaving the others there to talk a little longer.

The next day, just after nine o'clock in the morning. Mikki walked out of hers and Blaine's apartment and walked across the hall to Sam and Rachel's and knocked on the door.
Rachel came and opened the door and smiled at Mikki.
"Ready to go?" asked Mikki.
Rachel nodded. "Sure let me just grab my handbag".
Mikki nodded as she went over to the chairs in the apartment as Sam came out of his bedroom.
"You girls heading off?" asked Sam.
"We sure are" replied Rachel, as she walked back over to Mikki who was still near the door.
"Cool, so looks like it's time for a gaming session then" said Sam, as he also headed over to the door. The three of them then walking out and into the hallway between the two apartments.
Blaine came over to his and Mikki's apartment door that was still open.
"Hey Sam, Rach" he said, when he saw the two of them.
"Hi" replied Rachel, with a smile.
"I'll see you later okay sweetie" said Mikki going over to Blaine and quickly kissing him.
"Yeah, love you" replied Blaine.
"Love you too" replied Mikki, with another quick kiss.
"Okay, enough of that, we need to be getting you a wedding dress missy" said Rachel, with a laugh.
"Yeah, have fun guys" said Mikki, with a laugh also.
"We will, be nice to have my bro to play games with again" said Sam, with a laugh.
"Totally, lets kick some butt" replied Blaine, with a smile.
Mikki and Rachel laughed. "Okay bye guys" said Rachel.
"Bye" echoed Mikki, the two of them leaving as the guys also replied bye and heading to meet Brittany and Cynthia at the coffee shop, and leaving the guys to play video games for the day.
#SNOTYLWGTBTW##SNOTYLWGTBTW##SNOTYLWGTBTW##SNOTYLWGTBTW##SNOTYLWGTBTW##SNOTYLWGTBTW##SNOTYLWGTBTW##SNOTYLWGTBTW#
Mikki and the other three girls after meeting up at the coffee shop, headed to a bridal shop that Mikki would pass on the way to work and where she had seen some dresses that had she had taken a likening to.
Rachel pushed open the door of the small shop "Coco Rhodes" and the four of them walked into, and saw a small petite woman, who was actually shorter than Rachel, behind the counter.
The blonde looked up at them and smiled. "Well, hey y'all girls. How can I help you?" she asked with a very apparent southern accent.
"Hi, I've actually passed by your shop in the mornings and admired the dresses in the window" said Mikki.
"Oh well thank you sweetie. I'm April and this is my shop along with my friends Shels who is actually out at the moment. So are you getting married, maybe one of your girls here?" she asked, looking between the four girls standing in the shop.
"Mikki is, where her bridesmaids" said Brittany, as she pointed to Mikki.
"Oh well, I am sure we will find the most perfect dresses for all of you" said April.
"That's what we're hoping" said Mikki.
"Okay, so lets see three bridesmaid and two are twins if I am not mistaken" said April, with a smile as Brittany and Cynthia both nodded. "And of course one bride to be"
"There's actually four bridesmaid, my sister Kitty, but she can't be here as she lives in another state. However I have my tablet and was going to Skype her into the conversation" said Mikki.
"Oh well that's fine. I don't mind at all having her be a part of the discussion" said April.
"Well she's the maid of honor so it's kind of essential that she is" replied Mikki, with a laugh as she grabbed her tablet out of her handbag and connected a call to Kitty on it.
"So have you thought colours of bridesmaid dresses?" asked April as the call connected.
"Definitely nothing pink" said Rachel with a laugh.
"Agreed" replied Mikki, with a smile as Kitty came into view on the tablet.
"Hey sis, hi girls" said Kitty on the Skype call.
"Hi Kitty Kat" replied Mikki.
"Hello there" said April.
Oh hi" replied Kitty with a laugh.
"So this is April, she owns the shop where we are looking" said Mikki.
"Cool, just keep my sister away from the big poofy looking dresses, no way will any of those look good on her" said Kitty, with a laugh.
"I'm sure your sister will look beautiful in what she chooses here" said April, with a laugh.
"And we will keep her away from the poofy dresses don't worry" said Cynthia with a laugh.
"Thank you Brittany" said Kitty, with a laugh.
"Actually I'm Cynthia" she replied with a laugh.
"Twins, hello I'm seeing you on a small screen, I can't tell who is who" replied Kitty with a laugh, before the girls in New York started to try on some bridesmaid dresses and Mikki also made the decision on her wedding dress as well, with some assistance from Kitty also via the wonders of modern technology.
#SNOTYLWGTBTW##SNOTYLWGTBTW##SNOTYLWGTBTW##SNOTYLWGTBTW##SNOTYLWGTBTW##SNOTYLWGTBTW##SNOTYLWGTBTW##SNOTYLWGTBTW#
A few hours later, Sam and Blaine were still playing video games, having been joined shortly after by Puck, when Mikki and Rachel had left to meet the others, for the 'bro bonding session' as Sam had deemed it.
Jayden who was obviously with Puck also, considering that it was the weekend and was the time that he would normally have his son, had fallen asleep an hour or so before hand, and Blaine had told Puck that he could put him to sleep in the spare room that now occupied his and Mikki's apartment; the room that at one point had been Rachel's, and before that Mikki's when the apartment still belonged to Puck and Santana.
The three guys were currently playing Metal Gear Solid V on the PS4; as Sam's character took a shattering of bullets, almost thus ending his life.
"Dude, come on back me up here" said Sam, with a laugh.
"Well stop making stupid decisions and maybe you won't get shot at so much" replied Puck, as he killed the guy that had almost ended Sam.
"Got to take some risks in this thing" replied Sam.
"Or you can just take Mik's advice and find cheats, so you never die" replied Blaine, with a laugh as he shot his way through on the game via his character.
"Why does it not surprise me that my cousin likes to cheat" said Puck with a laugh.
"Because she does in every other game she plays" replied Sam.
"That she does" said Puck.
"Hmm, but she also has a good point in thinking that as well. Managed to get through so many games unscathed when haven't had in the back of head that going to die" said Blaine.
"She's corrupted you dude" said Sam, looking at his friend.
"I think I am the one who corrupted her" said Blaine, with a laugh.
"I really don't want to know what you have done to my little cousin" said Puck, looking at his best friend.
Blaine looked at him and laughed. "I don't mean anything bad by it. Just that she has seemed to have become addicted to some of the games on here, and she was even muttering the other week about trying to bid on a PS3 console via eBay, but her words, 'some ass holes kept outbidding her'".
"Why do you need a PS3 when got a 4?" asked Puck.
"Because the games aren't compatible and some are a forming part of series, hence your cousins frustration at it all" replied Blaine with a laugh.
"Yeah, got you. She did come to think of it had a slight obsession with Sonic when younger. Would spend hours playing my uncles old console and cursing the living hell out of the little guy" said Puck.
"Yeah, she mentioned something about that, and how she loved the fact that you could now save games" replied Blaine, with a laugh.
"Yep, that is definitely one of the good perks of the newer consoles, and that you are able to save. Can't imagine not being able to save progress on some of the games that play" said Sam.
"That's for sure" replied Puck, and the three of them continued with their bro bonding gaming session.
#SNOTYLWGTBTW##SNOTYLWGTBTW##SNOTYLWGTBTW##SNOTYLWGTBTW##SNOTYLWGTBTW##SNOTYLWGTBTW##SNOTYLWGTBTW##SNOTYLWGTBTW#
That evening, around five o'clock, the door of Mikki and Blaine's apartment opened, and the four girls walked in. Brittany and Cynthia both holding shopping bags; Rachel and Mikki with a couple of boxes of pizza each.
"We come with food" said Rachel, with a laugh, as they walked over to the guys, who were still playing video games, although since Jayden was now awake, it was a more kid friendly game in "Little Big Planet" that they were taking part in.
"Awesome, I'm starving" said Sam.
"Did you guys eat today?" asked Mikki, as she put the pizzas she had on the table and sat next to Blaine on the sofa, kissing him.
"Yeah, we had some sandwiches for lunch" replied Blaine, as he returned the kiss.
"But pizza for dinner, definitely awesome" said Puck.
"Any plates Mik?" asked Brittany, who along with Cynthia was over in the kitchen area, where the two of them were getting some more stuff together for them.
"Yeah, any is fine" replied Mikki, with a nod.
"'kay" said Brittany as she got some plates out of the cupboard and Cynthia grabbed some of the cans of soda they were in the fridge, before the two of them headed over to the others.
"So have you found a wedding dress?" asked Blaine, as he stopped the game that him and the others were playing, and turned the television over to cable to see what was on, and they all grabbed some pizza and soda.
"Maybe" replied Mikki, with a laugh, as the other girls also laughed.
"Take the laughter as a yes, dude. I know my cousin" said Puck.
"Yeah, I know that means a yes, believe me" replied Blaine, with a smile.
"So going to tell us what it's like at all?" asked Sam.
"No, no way" replied Mikki, shaking her head.
"Yeah that's like total bad luck" said Cynthia.
"Okay, well what about the bridesmaid dresses can you at least give a hint as to maybe the color, so that I can at least know if ties are going to clash" said Blaine, with a laugh.
"I have a picture on my tablet of Britts and Cyndy in the dresses" said Mikki, grabbing it out of her hand bag.
"We look really good" said Brittany with a laugh as Mikki found the photo that she took, making sure not to show Blaine the pictures of her in the wedding dress that she was going to be getting.
"Wow, I like the color" said Sam.
"Yeah, it's called Hunter" said Rachel, with a laugh.
"I'm sure Mik's work colleague will love that your wearing a color named the same as him" said Blaine.
"Hmm, I think it's more to do with the fact that it's the green color" said Cynthia.
"Yeah, well they look really good on you girls" said Sam, looking at the two in the photo with a smile.
"One of you on the tablet, Rachel?" asked Puck.
Rachel looked at him, and shook her head. "No, mine needs to be altered a little, since it's too long for me".
"And they can do that at the shop we went to, so it's all good" said Brittany, with a nod.
"But Rach looks good" said Cynthia.
"Can I see more for a second?" asked Blaine with a smile and went to take the tablet from Mikki.
Mikki moved quickly though and turned the tablet off, locking it in the process. "Nice try buddy, and don't even think about trying later. I have changed the passcode on it" she replied, with a quick laugh and kissed him.
"Mean" replied Blaine, with a laugh and kissed her back.
"Yeah, so you think you can get a tie similar in color to that of the dresses of the girls?" asked Mikki, as they continued to eat.
"Yeah, pretty sure be able to find something in those colors or close to it" said Blaine.
"You know what would be cool man, if we were to all wear the ties of Slytherin" said Sam.
"Are they green?" asked Puck, not being a huge fan of the stories of Harry Potter and therefore knowing this.
"Green with Grey, and that would actually look really awesome" said Blaine.
"Are you really going to let them wear Harry Potter ties, for your wedding?" asked Rachel, with a laugh.
"I got to admit, it's kind of a good idea, and it would contrast well I think" replied Mikki.
"So we can do that, you're cool with that?" asked Blaine.
Mikki looked at him and nodded, quickly kissing him. "Yes I am cool with that" she replied.
And the seven of them then sat around eating the pizza, and continuing to hear some more ideas for Mikki and Blaine's upcoming wedding.
End Note:
I was going to have Rachel get the lead in Cabaret in the story when I first started writing the story, but then realized that it's on Broadway at the moment, so that idea went out the door.
So it was then a case of what musicals have not been revived for the stage in recent years, and then I remembered "My Fair Lady".
I know that the song Rachel does sing at the coffee shop is 'Maybe this Time' from "Cabaret", and that's only because it fitted more into the line of what I needed a song to be, and also is a little more up tempo then the songs from "My Fair Lady". And it also conveys a subtle message as well. :)
And yes I am huge gaming nerd - and I do "cheat" in some games, because I hate to die!
Have a PS4 on layby for collection after christmas, and I am also trying to obtain a PS3 via eBay! I only have a PS2, Xbox, 360 and Wii at home - so need the other consoles so I can get more games, especially those made exclusive for one platform!
Anyway, until after the holiday/festive season - I wish you happiness and joy, in whatever it that you may celebrate.
Remember to review if you want a sneak peak of the next chapter - I can only give those who are signed into fanfic said peek though.
Thanks all for a wonderful year of reviews and support.
Until the next chapter,
lots of love to you all,
KJ and the wicked furbies! xoxoxo
