Everyone is going on dates tonight. The moms are all separating into their spouse pairs. We haven't thought about that yet. We haven't really had time to.
The moms ask for our help and opinions for theirs. It is like we never got engaged. We haven't said anything because we don't wanna upset them. They have had different stresses.
We have been trying to figured a few things out. We only really have one dress. It's Brittanys fluffy dress. That's all we have so far.
It's not much but it's what makes us remember. That and the rings we have. They are so beautiful. I can't wait to get our wedding rings.
"Alright!" I turn to see the moms at the door "We are leaving! Enjoy your dates!"
We all wave and they leave. Fran, Sugar, Jasmine, and Pamela are the next to leave. After them Sam and Grace leave all dressed up. They can't drive so I wonder who picked them up.
"Alright!" The grandmas walk in with white boards "We are all yours tonight! Let's get our planning on!"
I share a smile with my fiancés. Tonight might not be so bad.

Cassandra and I pull into the drive in. I smile wide as she gets everything set up. I haven't been to one of these in forever. I can't believe they still have one running.
"So you may not like Broadway musicals but this was all they had" Cass looks at me with a shy smile "I figured it's a cute romantic one so why not?"
"I have no problem with musicals" She smiles and I lean over to lay my head on her Shoulder "This is nice"
She puts her head on mine and the movie starts. If this is all we are doing I'm perfectly content.

We pull up to the restaurant and park. I quickly get out and shuffle my way to Emma. The pregnant belly is getting in the way some. But I hope it doesn't ruin our plans.
We have wanted to do a couples pottery class for a while now. So I made reservations for a class tonight. I can't wait! I just hope we are able to do it.
"What is this?" I grab her hand and lock the car "What are we doing?"
"A couples pottery class!" She smiles wide and I know I did the right date "Let's go!"
She nods and we head inside. Here's to a good date!

I have spent so much time researching places to go. I didn't know what to do! I just wanted to make tonight amazing! So I found a nice little bar that has a open mic tonight.
I'm hoping she enjoys it. I called ahead and they offer normal drinks. The person on the other end kinda seemed like I was stupid. I don't know what I missed.
We finally pull in and I watch as a kid walks in with parents. OHHHH! It's just called The Bar. It's just actually a...that would explain a lot.
"You ok?" I look over at Shelby and nod "You thought this was a beer bar didn't you?"
I sigh and nod "I called and everything" She chuckles and I smile "Let's go in"
I lead her in and we get our table. We order on the menu and I look at the time. We have some time before mic starts. Let's get our food and drink on!
-Time skip-
The food at this place is amazing! We need to come back together. I really have enjoyed this place. The whole place has been friendly.
"Why do you keep looking at your watch?" I point to the open mic sign that just turned on "Ahhhh you wanna see me sing?"
"I wanted you to have fun" I smile and grab her hand "You love to sing and yeah I wanna see you sing"
Shelby smiles and stands up. She walks to the stage and picks a song. She walks to the mic and blows me a kiss. I smile and pretend to catch it.
-Shelby singing-
I come home in the morning light
My mother says, "When you gonna live your life right?"
Oh, mamma, dear, we're not the fortunate ones
And girls—they wanna have fun
Oh, girls just wanna have fun
The phone rings in the middle of the night
My father yells, "What you gonna do with your life?"
Oh, daddy, dear, you know you're still number one
But girls—they wanna have fun
Oh, girls just wanna have
That's all they really want
Some fun
When the working day is done
Oh, girls—they wanna have fun
Oh, girls just wanna have fun
Girls—they wanna

Some boys take a beautiful girl
And hide her away from the rest of the world
I wanna be the one to walk in the sun
Oh girls they wanna have fun

Some fun
When the working day is done
Oh, girls—they wanna have fun

Everyone claps and cheers for a encore. Shelby looks at me and I nod. She smiles and she picks another song.
-Shelby singing-
That girl thinks she's the queen of the neighborhood
She's got the hottest dyke in town
That girl she holds her head up so high
I think I wanna be her best friend
Rebel Girl, Rebel Girl
Rebel Girl you are the queen of my world
Rebel Girl, Rebel Girl
I think I wanna take you home
I wanna try on your clothes, uh
When she walks, the revolution's coming
In her hips, there's revolution
When she talks, I hear the revolution
In her kiss, I taste the revolution
Rebel Girl, Rebel Girl
Rebel Girl you are the queen of my world
Rebel Girl, Rebel Girl
I know I wanna take you home
I wanna try on your clothes, uh
That girl thinks she's the queen of the neighborhood
I got news for you, she IS!
They say she's a slut, but I know
She is my best friend
Rebel Girl, Rebel Girl
Rebel Girl you are the queen of my world
Rebel Girl, Rebel Girl
I think I wanna take you home
I wanna try on your clothes
Love you like a sister always
Soul sister, Rebel Girl
Come and be my best friend
Really Rebel Girl
I really like you
I really wanna be
Your best friend
Be my Rebel Girl
They clap and cheer. I smile as Shelby bows. This was the right choice. She gets cheered for one more and she does another song.
-Time skip-
All the dates are over and we wave at each other. Everyone seemed to have a good night. I do notice that only two pairs of couples have come back. Where are the other two?
We walk in and the house is a mess! We walk in fully and all stop. Are they messing with our wedding plans? No these are new.
"Oh shit" Shelby steps forward "We haven't been helping them"
"Hey!" Mary walks over "How was the dates?"
"Great" I walk over to the board and see all of the plans "These are good plans"
"Plans!" We all jump and look at a flustered Lucy "I got plans!"
"We see that" I look around and see everyone else asleep "I'm so sorry for not helping you"
"It's fine" Lucy rubs her eyes "Oh we passed dinner"
"You all go grab something and we'll look over your plans" Lucy smiles and gets up "Let's wake the girls up"
We wake them up and get them all changed. They leave with Mary, Janine, and Debbie. We look over the plans and ours. It's actually a fun time filled with laughter.
When they come back we go over plans together. We stop about midnight and go to bed. Today was a lovely day. I hope this being everything back to fun.
I really can't wait to see what happens.
