A Dream Come True, Not!
Chapter sixteen:- The Plans and The Dress
LMDGlUVR4EVA- I should probably read the rules b/c I didn't know that lol. What would I do w/ out ppl like u? I'll think of something, maybe just list the song names then insist u go look up the lyrics... i'll think of something... thanks
crazybluephatnom- Thanks! I have no idea how I came up with that idea. I'm a wing it kind of person. I started writing then the cake and waiters and everything just came up lol. And you'll find out about Cindy's mom later in the story
foamgreen- Thanks for your opinion. I really like it when ppl give me infomation like that it helps me.
samuraistar- Well you have your opinions and I have mine. I think that having a child (even if you're not married) when you're ready and you're able to take care of it, it acceptable. I think it's better if you're married yes, but life doesn't always turn out perfect. As a writer I'm showing my opinion and how I think it's acceptable to have a child even if you're not married. I'm not trying to blend, I'm just showing my opinion and I'm trying to make this as realistic as possible, which means everything can't be perfect. If you have a problem with my writing style or the way I make these things turn out, don't read it. That's all I have to say. But I have to admit, I like hearing other's opinions like yours. (And I like debating lol... ahem sry...)
As requested by most, I will have this chptr for plans then the next chptr will be the real wedding, the ending! Oh and plz excuse stupid mistakes I make in the wedding plans or the actual wedding. I've never been to one and being 14, I obviously haven't had one of my own yet. lol
Cindy woke up with a smile on her face the next morning. She didn't even open her eyes. She was afriad that it was all a dream and that when she opened her eyes, there would be no ring on her finger. She finaly opened her eyes and smiled wider when she saw the ring was still on her finger. It hadn't been a dream. She was engaged... again.
She slowly got up out of bed, smile still on her face and went downstairs. She found Jimmy, Chris, and Bridgette drinking coffee. She poured herself a cup and gave Jimmy a quick kiss.
"Good morning, soon to be Mrs. James Neutron." She just smiled wider, if that was possible.
"So I guess we should start planning today." Cindy said taking a seat next to her future husband.
"Yeah that'd bea good idea." He replied. "I was thinking maybe in three monts we'd get married. That'd give us time to make the right arrangments and everything. I knew you'd want to have it soon but..."
"Three months is fine." They both got dressed then headed down to the lab to start making plans. "Okay so where do we begin?"
"Well I thought we'd keep the place and the band we desided on." Jimmy said taking out a book that Libby had given him. "This supposidly tells us the rest of the things we need to deside."
"First things first, my dress." Cindy said. "Libby give you anything about my dress?" He sighed and handed an envelope to her. "Yes!" Cindy exclaimed. "This is just telling me where to go and all..."
"Of course." Jimmy rolled his eyes. He didn't really care about her dress. "Okay guests... The whole town knows about this wedding. I swear it's the biggest thing they've ever heard for some reason. We obviously want to invite both of our families, right?" Cindy nodded. "Carl's flying in to come to our wedding, Libby and Sheen of course. Bridesmaids and all. I can't think of anyone else who really needs to be invited."
"I know I don't want the whole town there but you know everyone will take it personaly if their not invited." Jimmy agreed to that. This town was a little stuck up at times.
"But can we afford the whole town?" Jimmy questioned. They weren't on a tight budget or anything but the whole town might be stretching it. "How about just our closet friends can be seated and can eat the food but everyone can watch?"
"Okay, that's the stupidest thing you've come up with. And you're suppose to be a genius!" Cindy yelled at him. He rolled his eyes again. "Why not just the closest people we know."
"Okay one problem."
"What?"
"That would be the whole town. We both know the whole town wants to come."
"Okay how about everyone's invited to the wedding but only certain to the reception?"
"That'll have to do." Jimmy sighed. "Caterer?"
"Retroville Caterer. Duh! Easy, cheap, and awsome food." She laughed. "Paper plates and silverware of course."
"For flower type..."
"Roses!" Cindy shouted. "I need roses!"
"But they're so expensive." Jimmy stated or complained however you want to put it.
"Roses!" She yelled again. "We don't need all roses but I want roses!"
"Okay okay okay!" He said covering his ears. "Don't kill me over flowers." He chuckled a little. "Now for the table center pieces," He showed her two different types in the book Libby had given him. "I like these two."
"Hmmm..." She considered both of them. "I like that one." She pointed to a short, fat, glass vase that held fake pink and red roses and a few green leaves. It was placed on a round silver plate like object with candles surrounding it. It also had red and white petals around it. (A/N: I found that on google image search 'center piece' if you want to see it. It's the first picture I just love the way it looks)
"Me too." He leaned over and kissed her.
They spent half the day desiding on the seating arrangments, the arch that they would be under, type of food, the exact date, and invitations. There was very little they had to do now. They were quick on desisions because they agreed on almost everything and the wedding book gave the best choices.
"Can you make sure to have your dog make the invitations and a few extras?" Cindy said before walking out. "Libby and I are going shopping for my dress and bridesmaid's dresses." With that she left.
"Hey Girl!" Libby greeted at the store. "Ready?"
"Absolutly! I can't wait to pick out the dream dress for me and ugly bridesmaid dress for you." Cindy teased. "I know you know already but I want you to be my maid of honnor."
"I know girl but it's still so sweet!" Libby hugged her best friend tight. "Okay lets go in and pick out the dress!" Libby shouted. They walked in and spent who knows how long trying on dresses. Libby tried a few on just to see what they'd look like.
"This is the one." Cindy said standing in front of the mirror. Libby and Cindy stood there just staring at Cindy in the dress. It was a floor-length, strappless white dress. It had a white cloth lilly on the right hip connected to silk like material that spread acrossher left side. The shawl was made of the same see-through white silk material. She also had on white, open toed, high heels. There were no straps on the heel but over the front part of the foot was white criss crossing straps. (A/N: I know vauge on the shoes but I don't know how to describe them) On Cindy's head, was a layered veil that went half way down her back and was lined with white silk.
"You look so beautiful!" Libby almost started crying. "I think you're right. That's so the right dress." She commented.
"Ladies..." A sales woman came up to them. "We're closing in ten minutes." Libby and Cindy laughed a little at how long they were in the store.
"Okay. Well I want this dress."
"Go change out of it, bring it to me, and I'll ship it to your house." Cindy nodded and went to change.
After paying and giving shipping information, they went home to their men. Libby parted with Cindy to go find Sheen and Ben. Cindy went off to find Jimmy. She found him in her house talking to Chris and Bridgette.
"Hey everybody!" She greeted happily. "I found my dress."
"It took you long enough." Jimmy said getting up to kiss her.
"The dress is a big deal." Bridgette said. "Every woman knows that."
"Yeah. Don't make fun of me because I'll still kick your butt." They all laughed a little. Cindy cuddled up against Jimmy and slowly fell asleep as did he. There was still a bit to do, but the day would arrive before they knew it. It would come fast. Not like before when it turned out to be the next day but the next months would fly by.
Okay... the next chptr will be the very end!
