XXX-Did It Work?
Tim softly shook Kris the next morning. She fluttered her eyes open and saw Tim with a big smile and Junior sitting next to her, also with a smile. "Did it work?" Kris said trying to sit up, it hurt but she didn't care.
"Yea, it worked; Hailey is going to be fine. I can't thank you enough."-Tim said hugging her but Kris winced in pain and ha backed off. He apologized and Junior jumped up and put his hand on her shoulder.
"Kris, are you okay?"-Junior
"Yeah, I am fine it's just a little sore. It's worth it though. How is Hailey feeling?"-Kris
"Hailey is sore too. When you are ready to walk you should go see her. She misses you. She even asked the doctor if she could be in the same room as you. And I'm not supposed to tell you this but;" Tim leaned in close as to tell her a secret, he lowered his voice; "she is working on an artistic creation for you. But it's a surprise."-Tim
Kris and Junior both giggled. Oh, right; here you go."-Junior handed Kris a cup of coffee.
"Thanks;" Kris said taking the cup and taking a sip. The hot liquid felt so good going down her throat. She hadn't eaten in awhile and was hungry. The nurse came in with some waffles. Junior poured the syrup for her, she felt weird, normally she wouldn't let people do stuff for her like this. Why did she let Junior?
The next afternoon Kris was able to walk and she went to see Hailey. Claudia was sitting there stroking her hair as Hailey slept. Tim and Junior were downstairs getting food for everyone. "How is she?"-Kris whispered
"She's good. She wanted me to give this to you."-Claudia handed Kris a picture that Hailey had drawn. It was an adorable picture of Hailey and Kris holding hands, they were in the hospital but there were hearts everywhere. On top it said "Thank you Krissy!"
When Kris was done looking at the picture she looked up and saw two gorgeous blue eyes looking back at her. "Hey Hailey, how are you feeling?"-Kris said walking over to the hospital bed.
"It's a little sore; thank you Krissy. Do you like the picture I made for you?"-Hailey
"Of course, I love it. Thank you so much."-Kris said hugging the little girl
Junior and Tim walked in with pizza. "We figured you guys would want real food; not the fake stuff that they sell here."-Tim said with a smile.
They all sat down and were eating there pizza, talking, joking around. They were having fun. When the laughs died down something in Tim's head clicked. "Oh yeah, Kris; would you mind staying like, another week?"
"What? I need to ride y'a know. I could get fired for taking so much time off. People are like, never going to want to work with me again. And Junior probably needs to get back to the club and Dani and everything. Why?"-Kris
"Because, Tom and Brittany planned the wedding date. She wanted me to ask if you could be a bride's maid if you were in town. So, can you stay?"-Tim
Kris looked at Junior, she wanted to go to the wedding but she knew it would take to long. She was all ready to say no but Junior apparently was thinking otherwise. "I think we can spare another week, what do you think Kris?"
"Only if you're my date,"-Kris said with a smile as she kissed him on the cheek
Tim left to go and call Tom to tell him to ass them to the list, when he came back he told Kris that when she leaves the hospital tomorrow she would have to meet with Brittany for the dress and everything. Kris' face fell when she heard this, a dress? That meant shoes and flowers. Ugh.
The next day Junior led Kris out of the hospital and into his car. Tim hopped in the back seat. Junior was going to drop Kris off at Brittany's house and then him and Tim were going to go buy new tux's. Kris kissed Junior and then got out of the car. When she saw Brittany she flipped out. She missed her so much. They were great friends and Kris couldn't believe that she was getting married. Then Victoria, April, and Tara showed up. Tara was Tom's sister. Kris missed all of them. Victoria was the maid of honor. "Is everyone ready to go pick out dresses?"-Brittany asked giddily. She knew that Kris was less excited but Brittany was just too excited to let it bother her. They drove up to The Bride Couture, an expensive Bridal boutique. They were going to pick out Brittany's dress first and then everyone else's.
"Oh, what about this one? Or this one? No, this one!"-Brittany was darting around the store holding up all different dresses. Everyone laughed as Brittany's facial expression continued to change with every dress. Eventually she found the dress. It was a triangle strapped dress with a sparkle overcoat on the skirt. Brittany went to try it on and it was a perfect fit. "I was meant to wear this dress."-Brittany said in disbelief. Then Victoria walked up behind her with the most beautiful vale she had ever seen. "The saleswoman was just putting this on the rack and I had to get it. You like it?"-Victoria
"Like it? I love it! Thank you so much Vicky!"-Brittany said hugging her.
They paid for the dress, the shoes, the vale, and then they left. They now needed everyone else's outfits. Then they were going to see a hair stylist about how they were going to wear their hair. They found a cute little store with hand-made dresses that Brittany fell in love with. Victoria got a beautiful light blue dress with gold spaghetti straps and trim. She got gold shoes and gold hair clips. Brittany wanted Kris, April, and Tara to all match each other so they all got matching outfits. Kris let everyone else pick out the outfits because everyone knew she had no idea what she was talking about. Believe it or not though, Kris was still having fun.
Back at the tux shop:
Junior and Tim were really bonding. They were trying on some nice tux's, and some not so nice; just for fun. "So you like my sister?"-Junior asked Tim.
"You like mine? And I mean Kris, not Sabrina."-Tim
"Yeah, I am in love with Kris. I just hope she knows that."-Junior
"She does. I can tell. And yeah. I do like your sister. A lot. She's a great girl."-Tim
"Yeah, she is."-Junior
"Can I ask you something?"-Tim said looking at Junior
"Yeah."-Junior
"How do you know it's going to work with Kris? I mean I know you two are in love but you are so different."-Tim
"I know it is going to work because I have fallen in love before; I mean you almost never stick with your first love. So I've fallen in love before, but not like Kris."-Junior
Tim just smiled. He knew Kris was in good hands.
Back With the Girls:
Brittany, Victoria, April, Tara, and Kris were walking into the hair salon. They got the dresses. They all decided on a French blue bridesmaid backless, halter dress with a gold undercoat and a gold vertical strip in the back. They got similar gold shoes as to Victoria and they were now talking about the hair. Victoria was getting her hair straight ironed with random curls and the golden clips that she got. Kris was getting a curled up-do, as well as April and Tara. Brittany was putting her hair half up, and the half that was up was going to be curled. It fit perfectly inside the vale.
They then went to the floral shoppe. They were just going to talk about the bouquets, Brittany was going to discuss the flower arrangements further with Tom. They had the perfect flower. Victoria, April, Tara, and Kris all got light blue flowers with the tips painted gold. Brittany got an assortment of white roses and light blue with some white bells. They ordered the flowers and went home. They all had a lot of fun but Kris couldn't wait to get home. She ran up to Claudia's apartment, where they had been staying, after Brittany dropped her off. She walked in with the big box that contained her dress, shoes, and flower order. Junior was sitting on the couch with Hailey. When he heard her come in he jumped up and hugged her. "Hey you," He said.
"Hey yourself;" Kris said pulling away to put her dress away.
"Can I see your dress?"-Junior asked following her.
"Nope, we aren't showing anyone. You are just going to have to be surprised."-Kris said playfully kissing him. She put her dress away and went over to Hailey. "Where's mommy and daddy?" she asked
"Mommy went to get some Chinese with Daddy. Junior told them what you would want."-Hailey said never losing eye contact with the TV.
"Hey Hails?"-Kris said picking her up and putting the little girl on her lap. "Brittany wanted me to ask if you would like to be the flower girl. Would you like to do that?"-Kris
A smile grew across Hailey's face. "I think it can be done."-Hailey
"Oh, you think it can be done do you?"-Kris said tickling Hailey. Hailey giggled and tickled her back. Junior looked at them and smiled. Then something clicked in his head, but what was it that clicked?
After Hailey and Kris were both out of breath Kris said that tomorrow she was going to take her for a dress. Mommy would want to come so they needed to wait. She turned to Junior who was still smiling. "Can I see your tux?" she asked
Junior laughed, "I don't think so, we decided it was going to be a surprise."
"It's a tux. How many styles could there possibly be?"-Kris
"You would be surprised,"-Junior said turning and walking away; leaving Kris in suspense. Kris looked at Hailey and Hailey shrugged. Kris started to tickle Hailey again. They were both feeling a lot better and Kris was happy. This was going to be a good week.
