Danielle: A month before the wedding!
Mika: Yep!
Danielle: I'll say more at the bottom. SO R&R!!!!
Mika: How orginal!
~1 month before Wedding~
Kari stared at the beautiful dress. The white trimmed lace that outlined the hems, the collar, and the sleeves of the dress. The beautiful white and silver coloring. The veil that would cover her face but be part of the train in the back. Every thing was perfect about the dress. She couldn't have found anything more perfect then this. There was only a slight problem.
"5,000 dollars?!" Kari shouted. Mimi who was with her at the time looked up.
"Is that all?" She said and went back to looking at her magazine.
"Is that all?! Is that all?! Mimi, 5,000 dollars deserves something a little better then is that all." Kari shouted once more.
"Kari my wedding dress was 7,500. yours is about what…$2,500 cheaper. Come on. That's a lot to have saved."
"Mimi I get what you're saying and all but… my dress budget was only 3,000. You see this is 2,000 over the limit."
"Fine I throw in the 2,000."
"You talk about it as if money's like clothes."
"Let's see, I was a famous model, and fashion designer, and my husband is a record producer for all of today's Pop and Rock Stars. Hmm… Money to me is clothes."
"You wouldn't mind?"
"Hell no! Think of it as part of your wedding present." Kari and Mimi began laughing.
****************************************
Matt and Tk were on the other side of town at the tux shop. Tk was looking through the rack, as Matt looked at the displays.
"I though Kari just wanted black tux." Matt said.
"She does, and in each pocket there will be a carnation." Tk said getting impatient.
"Bro… Calm down man. Look just find a run of the mill black tux." Matt said trying to calm down Tk.
"I know." Tk agreed and then went back to looking.
"Hey guys! What about this one?" Tk and Matt turned to the dressing area where Tai stood in an orange disco suit. He began dancing like they did in "Dance Fever." Matt and Tk looked at him.
"No!" They chorused, rather loudly. Tai's face fell and he walked back into the dressing area mumbling.
"Why do I suddenly feel as if this is going to turn into a very very long day?" Tk commented, more then asked. Matt just chuckled.
****************************************
Back at the bridal shop. Mimi and Kari had moved on from Kari's dress to the bride maid's dresses. Kari had two in her hand, she not being very good at choosing dresses, handed them to Mimi.
Mimi held the dresses up and gave them both a critical eye. The first dress was an ice blue gown, which went to the ankles. The dress had a silver hue to it, and was made with a silk-kind of fabric. The second dress was a light shade of pink, with a gold-ish hue on it. The pink was made more of a satin material, and had some lace as a belt, it wrapped around the waist and then after looking the floppy loops, the lace would drop to the floor. The dress itself went to the floor.
"I think we should go with the… blue one." Mimi said handing Kari the hanger.
"Really? I mean that's what I wanted, so yay." Kari smiled and went to make the orders.
"Where are you and Tk going for the big honeymoon? Wink, wink." Mimi laughed.
"Oh please it's not like we haven't done it already." Kari laughed as well. Mimi covered her ears, still smiling.
"Oh Kari, my virgin ears."
"Really huh?" Kari said looking at Mimi's round stomach.
"I am a virgin state of mind." Mimi and Kari began laughing. "So where exactly are you going?"
"Well it's not till a week after the wedding. Cause that's when you guys are leaving. But we're going to the Bahamas." Kari smiled.
"That's going to be so perfect."
"Where did you and Matt go?"
"Paris, and then Italy."
"You two are truly made of money."
"So is Joe, Cody, Davis, and Tai. I mean Yolei, you, and Ken are also very well off." Mimi smiled as Kari laughed.
"As long as I have Tk… I wouldn't care if we were poor."
****************************************
"But…"
"No but's mister. I don't care, you're not allowed another cookie. And if I hear just even a tiny bit of a complaint, it's straight to your room for a five minute time out." Yolei scolded Izzy. Who made a face and stalked to their room.
"Well that was interesting," Sandra said smiling.
"Well sometimes who have to take it as if they're five year olds." They began laughing.
"I wish I had a five year old." Sandra said.
"I have two five year olds." Yolei complained.
"It's better then none." Yolei realized how much Sandra really wanted a child.
"Sandra, why don't you tell Joe, and try to have a baby?"
"Because Joe wants to wait a little while before starting a family."
"You have been married for eight years. I mean now more then ever have a child." Yolei stated.
"Yeah… you're right. I guess bring it up at the next chance I get."
"Yep." Yolie and Sandra began laughing. "I still say I have two five year olds." They began laughing harder.
****************************************
Sora, Joe, Izzy, Cody, and Courtney were walking around the huge mall. Sora and Courtney were just a little ahead of the boys talking about random things. Joe spotted the bakery, and directed the guys too it.
"Ok, Kari said they bought the cake already just give the guy the address of the hall, and pay the deposit." Sora said going to the counter. "Excuse me."
"Yes." The young girl turned around, making her blue eyes apparent. Her long burgundy hair flowed behind her. "Izzy?" She asked looking at the redheaded boy.
"Mika? Mika Avery?" The girl nodded her head and jumped the counter to give him a hug. "How long has it been? Ten years? How've you been?"
"Eight years actually… but I'm good. You know the usual. Busy busy life. How have you been, where's your wife, I can't wait to meet her." Mika gushed quickly.
"She's at home, OMG, I still can't believe it's you." Izzy hugged her again, he then turned to his confused friends. "Guys, this is Mika Avery, remember the best friend I had on the Internet, and then the same girl in college, well this is her." Everyone said their hellos and shook hands.
"I've heard so much about all of you. It's great to finally meet you all." Mika smiled.
"It's nice to meet you too… but well we have a tight schedule…"
"Same no more. I am sorry. Business before pleasure." Mika smiled and went back to the front desk. "Ok what can I do for ya?"
"Well I am here to put a deposit on the Kamiya-Ishida wedding cake to have it delivered to 'Country Roses Halls'." Sora said handing Mika a twenty-dollar bill.
"Alrighty then. Kamiya-Ishida, hmm… ok… The doubled layered, vanilla cake. Yes…. To the 'Country Roses Hall'. Got it." Mika typed away at the computer. "Is that all?"
"I think so…" Sora looked around everyone shrugged. "Yes that seems to be it."
"Ok well thank you. Come again."
"Bye Mika."
"Bye Izzy call me one of these days. I am listed."
"You got it!" Izzy said as they made their way from the bakery.
****************************************
"I am so tired." Mimi said getting into the car.
"Well we're going home. We can both take a nap." Kari and Mimi began laughing.
"Ow…" Mimi said touching her stomach.
"What's wrong?" Kari asked quickly.
"She's kicking. Really hard. I sware if she becomes some kind of soccer player, I am not going to believe she's my child."
"I am sure." Kari laughed. They pulled out of the parking lot and drove off to the apartment.
"If anything I'll switch with Tai and Sora. I am Raye would be a little doll." Mimi laughed again, Kari soon joined in.
"Your right!" They laughed harder. "I can't wait for this wedding to be over. I want to be with him."
"One more month my dear, just one more."
"Yeah I know… Weren't you nervous about marrying Matt."
"Not really… I found nothing to worry about. He was marrying me, we were happy, there was money like crazy going into it. So I don't know." Mimi said going deep into thought.
"I guess your right. I mean what's there to worry about…?"
****************************************
"Tai stop fooling around!" Tk was having a nervous break down. Tai had been trying on all the wrong suits, and Matt just laughed at him.
"Tk Man! Cool down. Jeez, this is what we do. Come on." After receiving an evil look from Tk, Tai cleared his throat nervously and put on a serious face. "Ok, ok I get it. I'll try on the suit you gave me." He walked back in.
Tk sighed and turned to his brother who was chuckling. Matt looked up to see the evil glare placed on him by his brother.
"Cool it Tk. That Ishida Temper is used on other people no Ishida's." Tk gave him a dirty look and then turned back to the dressing rooms. Tai came out in the suit Tk had given him.
"It looks great!" Tk said excitedly.
"I know." Tai said proudly.
"Ok well then we have the suits now." Tk smiled.
"Yeah now that that's over. Let's go home."
"Missing your wife already Matt." Tai teased.
"Yes I am for your information. I finally got back on her good side, and I am not about to screw it up." Matt said smugly to Tai.
"Ok well come on. I got everything. So they'll be delivered to the church. Let's go." Tk said making his way to the car.
"Shot gun!" Tai yelled running towards the car.
"You Wish!" Matt yelled back and began running just as fast.
"Dear God…" Tk said as he walked smoothly to the car.
****************************************
"MOMMY!" Sam cried. Davis tried to coo him. While Sandra and Yolei pretty much covered their ears.
"We're HOME!" Kari yelled. Sam looked up and saw Mimi coming in. He began stretching for her to hold him. Mimi looked at Davis who looked as if he wanted to cry himself. She went up and held her arms to take Sam. Davis handed him over. Sam smiled and cooed as he snuggled into her warm embrace.
"I guess he just want a woman's touch."
"No I think he wanted your touch. I held him, and so did Sandra all he did was scream." Yolei said popping the Advil, and passing it to Davis and Sandra.
"Mimi Thank God you're here." Davis said rubbing his temples.
"Well ok." Mimi shrugged and sat down on the couch as Sam sucked his thumb and played with her hair. "He's so cute." Mimi said patting Sam's back.
"Take him!" Davis said with out a second thought.
"Oh yeah I sure Destiny would love that." Kari laughed from the window in the kitchen.
"How was dress shopping?" Sandra asked.
"Oh it was good. We bought this beautiful dress."
"Can't wait to see it." Yolei smiled.
"I can't wait to wear it." They laughed.
"NO!!!" They heard a loud scream. They rushed to the living room to see Mimi holding Sam on her lap as he tried to hit Davis.
"But Sam… it's nap time."
"NO MI!" Davis' face fell. "Mi. Mi."
"Aunt Mimi has to take a nap too." Davis looked at Mimi.
"Yeah Sam I have to take a nap."
"No!" Sam said again. And held onto her.
"Fine! When we see mommy I'll just tell her how bad you were." Davis said getting impatient.
"No!" Sam said and hit his father's head.
"I hope he didn't pick that up from us." Yolei whispered to Kari.
"Samuel Brian Motimiya! We do not hit!" Davis looked at him. "Come on time-out." Davis took him from Mimi.
"NO Mi… Mi…" Sam began crying again. But it was more of a hurt cry then a loud cry. Davis and Sam disappeared to Mimi's and Matt's room.
"I feel all bad now." Mimi said.
"Trust me when you have kids you'll understand." Yolei said sitting down.
"No, I am never going to yell at my kid." Mimi said.
"That's what you say now." Yolei said, and looked around the room. Davis walked back out.
"You just left him there?" Kari questioned.
"Yes, It's a time out. He won't go anywhere, other then maybe the closet or under the bed. If he's not scared to jump off the bed." Just then they heard a small noise from the bedroom. "Obviously he's not scared." Davis sighed and sat next to Mimi. "Sometimes I wonder why I decide to have kids…"
****************************************
"So I guess that means I love you…"
"I guess it does…"
"Garbage." Sora and Mimi were in Tk's apartment. Sora shut the T.V off. I hate those sappy stories. They're never really like real life."
"Maybe because it's a T.V. show…" Mimi and Sora began to laugh. "So exactly where did everyone go?"
"Well I decide to stay here since you were asleep, but Joe, Sandra, Yolei, and Izzy went to a movie then dinner. Kari, Tai, Matt, and Tk are taking the kids to Chuckie Cheese, or something to that effect. Davis and Ken went to the mall to get some stuff. Cody and Courtney are at their hotel room."
"Well I guess I missed a lot…" Mimi chuckled.
"You were asleep, no problem there" Sora laughed.
"I can't wait for their wedding."
"Me neither…"
"Well only one more month…"
