3 ½ months later…

            "I don't know Mon, I think this one is better for your figure," Dana said.

            "Are you sure?" Monica asked. "I mean yeah, I do have a bit of a butt on me but that doesn't mean I shouldn't show it off."

            Dana and Monica were looking at a catalogue of wedding dresses.

            "Well, you won't know until you go and try them on," Dana said. "Let's look at something else. How about the bridesmaids dresses?"

            "Okay," Monica agreed. "Speaking of which, I want you to be my maid of honor."

            Dana looked up alarmingly fast. "What?"

            "I want you to me my maid of honor," she repeated. "Being in the FBI isn't exactly great for your social life so I don't exactly have that many friends. In the past couple weeks, we've grown really close. If I'm going to have a maid of honor, I want it to be you."

            "Oh Mon!" Dana exclaimed, reaching over to hug her friend. "I'd be honored! Thank you!"

            "No, thank you," Monica replied with a grin. "Okay, I already picked out the dresses so there's no discussion about that. I just can't figure out the color." She pulled out a picture of a sexy and rather frilly dress.

            Dana groaned. "I'm pregnant Mon. How am I going to wear that and pull it off?"

            "This is January," Monica said. "The wedding is in July. You'll have plenty of time to get in shape between now and then. We can have some girly bonding time at the gym."

            "Alright," Dana said. "I was thinking maybe—oh!"

            "What is it?" Monica asked, concerned.

            "Contraction," she whispered.

            "Should I call the doctor?" Monica asked.

            "No, contractions are perfectly nor—ooh!" She was hit with another contraction. "On second thought, do call the doctor. I think I'm going into labor."
