Mary awoke early the next morning with thoughts of the last night's events
in her mind. She knew that she wanted to marry Ben and she wanted a June
wedding. It was already the first of April so she didn't have much time.
She was going with Lucy to look for wedding dresses. She was getting
dressed when the phone in Mary's apartment rang.
"Hello?"
'Hi, Mare. It's me, Robbie.'
'Oh, hey. How's it going?'
'I'm fine, how are you?'
'Great! Me and Lucy were about to leave to go shopping, so…"
"Well, you aren't going to forget about our date tonight, are you"
"Nope, actually, I was also going to buy something new to wear. So, I'll see you tonight at 7?"
"Yup, oh, and wear something that you can move easily in!"
"Why?"
"Oh, you can wait and be surprised!"
"Ok, bye!! I'll see you at 7!"
Mary hung up the phone and was surprised to realize that she was excited about her date tonight. She picked up the phone and quickly dialed Lucy's number.
"Hey, Luce, it's me. Do you want to go wedding dress shopping with me today?"
"Oh, my god!! He you're marrying Ben?? Have you set a date yet?"
"Well, kind of. I want to get married in June, but I also haven't told Ben that I picked him yet. I still have a date tonight with Robbie, but I figured that either way, I have to get a dress. So, you wanna go?"
"Yeah! Oh, I found the best little boutique when I was looking for a dress when I was engaged to Jeremy. It sells Vera Wang dresses for almost ½ the price!"
"Ok, yeah, well, then I'll pick you up in 30 minutes."
"All right, bye!"
Mary hung up the phone and grabbed her keys and her new Kate Spade purse. She walked to the door and opened it. But surprisingly she ran right into Wilson.
"Wilson!! What are you doing here?"
Simon was walking down to the kitchen to grab something to eat. He got to the kitchen and Robbie was there munching on some Cocoa Crispies. Simon walked over to the cabinet and grabbed a bowl and sat down to join him.
"Hey, Simon, how's it going?"
"It's fine, just thinking about what I am going to do tonight. I have a date with this hot girl named Sara, and I was wondering if you could give us a ride to the movies."
" Actually, I would if I could, but I can't. I have a date with Mary tonight."
"With Mary?? I thought that she was engaged to Ben?!?!"
"Well, you know, it's kind of a long story and I don't really feel like going into it right now. But yeah, I have a date with her."
"Oh, ok, good luck!"
Robbie finished his bowl of cereal, walked over to the sink and rinsed it out. He headed back upstairs and began to make the final preparations for the date with Mary.
"Wilson, what are you doing here?" Mary repeated still surprised.
"Well, I was about to head back to Buffalo when I realized something. The last couple of weeks that we were hanging out, I found out things about you that only a best friend would know. That's what I'd like to think that we were in buffalo, best friends. The only thing I have ever wanted to do is marry my best friend. So, Mary Camden, will you marry me?" Wilson said as he pulled a small black velvet box.
Mary gasped and staggered back to the closet chair. She was breathing hard and swallowed. She looked up a Wilson with a look of astonishment in her eyes.
"Wilson, Oh, god!"
What am I going to do?? Mary thought to herself.
"Hello?"
'Hi, Mare. It's me, Robbie.'
'Oh, hey. How's it going?'
