Hi. I'm back. It feels like such a while since I updated. But I'm back now. Thank you for all the amazing reviews/PM's etc. as always. I really love them :) My exams went fine, thank you all for wishing me good luck :) I hope you enjoy the chapter :) Twitter: NayaPLL :)
Brittany woke up next to Santana. She heard the brunette slowly inhaling and exhaling, still deep asleep. It was Saturday, that means the day of the wedding. Brittany already heard Kitty outside the door, nervously talking to Tina. She should maybe get out of her bed and help Kitty. She was her maid of honor anyway. Brittany glanced over at Santana, placed a small kiss on her forehead and slipped into the bathroom. She showered and hoped that the noise of the water wouldn't wake up Santana. She then got dressed and glanced back into the bedroom. Santana was still sleeping. Brittany even heard some slight snoring sounds and she laughed. She so was going to tease the brunette about her snoring later on. She tiptoed out the bedroom only to find Kitty, Tina, Marley, Quinn and Rachel already up.
"Hey Britt." Quinn said.
"The girls are going to help Kitty get ready for the day of her life. We were just about to wake you up actually." Rachel stated.
"Where's Mercedes?" Brittany looked around. She was the only girl that was missing aside from the sleeping Latina in her bedroom.
"We tried to wake her up, but she mumbled some cruel curses under her breath and then kicked me, so we'll just let her sleep." Rachel mumbled.
Brittany snickered. Mercedes wasn't a morning person. Neither was Santana, so it would be better for everyone if they would just let the both of them sleep.
"Where's Ryder?" Brittany asked.
"He slept with Puck. I didn't want him to see me before the wedding. That's supposed to be bad luck. And I want a traditional wedding. Where's Santana?"
"She's still sleeping. It might be a good idea not to wake her up. She's not a very good morning person."
"Okay, girls. We don't have a lot of time so we'll do this good. Without Mercedes and Santana, we are missing two pairs of hands. So everyone will have to work harder to manage everything. It is ten AM right now and the wedding starts at five pm. So that leaves us with seven hours left to arrange everything. At half past one we have an appointment with the hairdresser and then at half past two an appointment with the make up artist. The guys will arrange everything at the church itself. I hope everything is okay with the pianist and the string quartet."
Kitty was rambling. Holy cow, a string quartet? Was Kitty being serious? She heard that Ryder's family was filthy rich, but wasn't she going a little overboard here? People in her family had whispered that that was the only reason why Kitty wanted to marry Ryder. Brittany didn't want to believe it at first, but Kitty was kind of the person that would marry for money instead of love. But the blonde really seemed to love Ryder, so maybe the money was just a happy coincidence.
"The flowers should be delivered at noon at the church but my mom will hopefully be there to arrange all that. Those guys don't understand all the flowers and the arrangements." Kitty's phone rang.
"Hello?" She picked up.
"Are you fucking kidding me? In seven hours a hundredth people are arriving here and they better have places to sit for fuck sake. I ordered the chairs four months ago and now you're telling me that there is something wrong with the order? Are you fucking kidding me?" Kitty screamed at the other person on the line.
"Oh, you'll arrange something else? Well, that's fucking great. You don't get paid if I don't have a hundredth exact the same chairs. So do whatever you have to do. I want those chairs and you'll better arrange it. Otherwise you won't see money from me anytime soon." Kitty angrily put down her phone.
"What happened?" Tina asked quiet.
"That fucking prick apparently had a problem with the chairs. He wrote down that we needed fifty chairs instead of hundredth."
"It'll be okay." Marley said quietly.
Suddenly they heard a door opening. Santana was awake. She was however, still wearing her pajamas. Her eyes looked sleepy and her hair was ruffled.
"Good morning, Santana. How nice of you to actually come help us." Rachel sarcastically stated.
"Shut it, Berry. I didn't even know that you guys needed my help. You could have woken me up if I was so necessary." Santana said back.
"We heard stories about your famous morning temper and we didn't want to risk anything on the day of the wedding."
Santana smirked. "Funny Berry. Well, I'll take a quick shower and then I'm ready to help wherever I can." Brittany stared at Santana. She looked insanely cute in the morning. She was a natural beauty; she didn't need make up to look absolutely gorgeous.
Santana stepped closer at Brittany and placed a small peck on her cheek.
"Good morning beautiful." Brittany's cheek turned red. She beamed back at Santana and mumbled a good morning back. Santana then spun around on her bare feet back into the bedroom to get a shower.
After a half hour she was back and in the meantime, Mercedes had joined them too. Kitty then asked everyone's attention to go over the planning of the day.
"Okay girls. Right now, we still need to arrange the food and the arrangements at the hotel where the reception and the dinner will be. The chef should already be there, but I do want to check up on him. The florist will deliver there flowers too, which need to be placed on all the tables and in the garden. Then we have to go to the hairdressers and then the make up artists. I asked them to not overdo on everyone's make up, because I need to be the most beautiful person today. It is my wedding so nobody can look hotter than me." Brittany laughed. But Kitty gave her a death glare. Oh, she was serious about this?
"Then we will get dressed. The designer of my wedding dress and the bridesmaids dresses will be here too to make some last minute changes, but I don't think that will be necessary. Then at four o' clock, the limousine will arrive here and that will drive us to the church. We then lay out some flower peddles around the church and get ready and that's it. At half past four, all the guests will be arriving. At five o' clock sharp, the wedding will start. At six o clock, the wedding will end and we will be going to the hotel for the reception and the dinner. The dinner will start at half past eight. Then at midnight, Ryder and me will leave for our little private house his parents rented us for our honeymoon. I hope you girls will help clean everything up after we leave." Everybody simply nodded.
"Okay great. Brittany, I trust you to collect all the gifts and give them to my mom, who will keep them until we are back from our honeymoon."
"Yeah, sure Kitty. I will."
Kitty then nodded. The group of girls had breakfast and then started leaving to the cars to go to the hotel. Santana didn't talk a lot to Brittany because Kitty was basically rambling the whole time about her wedding. Nobody could really blame her; it was her day after all. The best day of her life, right? Or that is what it's supposed to be.
They arrived at the hotel. Ryder's parents had rented out this huge, fancy hotel. They were just to arranging wedding and it was gorgeous. The whole garden was decorated with pictures of Ryder and Kitty. All around the garden, little tables were placed. The flowers smelled amazing and you could still see the sea from here. Inside the hotel, behind the enormous income hall was a giant ballroom. The room was filled with round tables with white tablecloths and silverware on top of it. Behind the round tables, there was a bar filled with every single beverage you could imagine. Next to the bar, there was a DJ-table where all the music would be played. In front of the DJ-set was a dance floor where Kitty and Ryder would share their first dance.
"My ladies." They suddenly heard some guy say to them. They turned around and saw a tall man of middle age. His hair was slicked back with gel, but you could already spot some grey eyes in his hair. The man was wearing a black suit and he seemed like the owner of this hotel. He had this certain image around him that gave away that he had a good position here. Even though his age was probably in the late forties, he did seem like he had lived and travelled the world. Around his eyes, small wrinkles were already showing but he still managed to look really attractive. He reminded Brittany of a taller version of a younger George Clooney. No matter how old he was, he still looked attractive.
"Hi, are you the owner of this hotel?" Kitty asked.
"I sure am. I'm Henry Houston. I build this hotel ten years ago and we are very capable of handling the best day our your life." Henry had a certain charm around him that made you immediately like him. He shook everyone's hand and smiled.
"And who is the lucky girl?" He looked around.
Kitty stepped in front. "I'm the bride."
"Great. So we already took the liberty of arranging the tables. If you want any changes, that's totally perfect. We will open the hotel for you at six o' clock. Is that correct?"
Kitty nodded. "Yes. And the tables are good. My florist will bring flowers to place on every table."
Henry simply nodded. "That's perfect. I assume you have your own DJ arranged? We do have a microphone stand if you have a live act, but not a lot of couples do that anymore, I'm afraid. I miss the times where every wedding would include a live act. A DJ is just not the same."
"I have rented a DJ, but there are some friends of mine that will sing some songs."
He smiled at the rest of the girls. "Amazing. Okay, we will now go to the kitchen where the chef and his team are already hard at work of course. The menu has been arranged with the chef?"
"Yes, of course."
Henry pushed open the double doors of the white kitchen and five heads turned in their direction. A rather curvy man with a chef's head walked towards him. He had a big moustache and reminded Brittany of a grownup version of Mario. There were some curls hanging out from under his chef's head. He was however wearing a big grin.
"You must be misses Wilde. Great to finally see you in person. I'm Lucas." He shook hands with them all.
"Is everything alright here, Lucas?" Henry asked.
"Of course, sir. We were just starting on making the little appetizers. We're on schedule."
Henry nodded happy.
"You'll now have to excuse me. I'm going back to work. Your menu wasn't the easiest to make, Miss." Lucas let out a laugh.
"You'll make it work, I'm sure of it, Lucas." Henry said. Kitty simply laughed.
Henry then walked out of the kitchen to the garden.
"Now, do you have any questions for me?" Henry smiled.
"No, I think everything is okay. We will be here tonight at six o' clock."
Henry nodded. "Good luck on the ceremony. I hope my team and me can give you the day you've always wanted." Kitty nodded before going to the cars again. They drove to the hair salon. A guy with blonde highlights in his hair who seemed very gay welcomed them and gave them all a place. After an hour everyone's hair was done. The bridesmaids' hairs were just normally brushed out, but Kitty's hair was a little more special. She had it tied up in a complicated bun. It was actually really pretty. After that, they were all placed again in other chairs, waiting for the make up artist to show up. Brittany thought Kitty was going a little overboard here. Yes, she could hire a make up artist for her make-up, but was it really necessary that a professional did all the bridesmaids' make-up too? Brittany could perfectly do it herself, right? It just seemed like a waste of money. But then again, the whole wedding seemed to be way too expensive and extravagant.
After another hour, the make-up of everyone was done. Everyone's make-up was nonchalant and not overdone, except for Kitty. The color of her green eyes really popped out thanks to the make-up and Kitty had never looked better. She would truly stand out as a bride.
Kitty thanked the make-up artist and shoved them a big pile of money. After that they went back to the houses to put on their dresses. Luckily, there weren't too big problems concerning the dresses. The designer stopped by for a half an hour, making the last arrangements at Kitty's beautiful wedding dress. He then left and wished them all good luck.
Suddenly, Brittany felt a hand clutching on her hand. She looked at her side and saw Santana smiling at her.
"Busy day, right?" Brittany said.
"Yeah, I know. I knew a wedding was a lot of work, but I didn't imagine it would give so much stress to Kitty."
Brittany shrugged. "Can you really blame her? She has worked months on this single day? She might make the best of it now."
Santana nodded. "I am just hoping that my girlfriend is saving a dance for me tonight." Santana winked.
"I've saved a thousand dances for you." Brittany beamed at Santana before leaning in and placing a small peck on her lips. Even though they had kissed a lot of times, it still gave the same effect over and over again. A hundredth butterflies swirling around in her stomach. She breathed out a sigh of happiness before going back to help Kitty and her craziness. After this day, she was going to be exhausted.
Everyone put on their dresses, making sure they weren't ruining their make-up of their hair. After she put on the dress, she talked a little to Marley.
"The limousine is here, girls. Is everyone ready?" Kitty yelled through the house.
They all walked to the limousine. In front of her, Santana was walking and Brittany couldn't stop herself from staring at her. The dress hugged every amazing curve of the Latina's body and her ass looked, well amazing in those pants. Brittany's eyes were glued to Santana's ass. Suddenly, Santana turned around. She probably felt the blonde's eyes boring into her.
"Do you like what you see?" Santana laughed.
"In fact I really do. Your ass is out of this world." Brittany winked.
"You look pretty amazing yourself too, if I may add." Santana whispered and she stepped in closer.
Brittany stepped even closer, so that their toes bumped through their heels. Kitty had picked out identical shoes with a small heel. But that way, Brittany was quite taller than the brunette. She leaned softly down and placed her lips on Santana's plumb lips. Just before Brittany could deepen the kiss she heard Kitty practically scream at them.
"Now is not the time to make out! Get your asses in this limo!"
Santana pulled away first and gave Brittany a giddy smile.
"Come on. Let's go." Santana spun around and took the blonde's hand in hers and pulled her along to the limousine.
Once again, Kitty hadn't saved on the luxury of the limousine. Inside of the limousine, all the girls, including Kitty, were already drinking champagne.
"I have never done this actually, riding in a limousine." Brittany said to Santana, who was still holding her hand. With her other hand, the brunette was pouring the two of them a glass of champagne.
"Really? Well, how do you like it?"
Brittany shrugged. "It's pretty amazing so far."
In the meantime, the limousine was started to drive to the church. Suddenly Brittany noticed that Kitty was drinking a lot of champagne. She pulled herself away from Santana and sat next to her.
"I think you've had enough." Brittany smiled while she pulled the glass of champagne of Kitty's clutching hands.
"Fine." Kitty grunted.
Suddenly the limo slowed down and the driver spoke. "We have arrived, miss."
He stepped out of the car and opened the door for the girls to come out of the car. Kitty shoved him a dollar bill after all the girls were out of the car.
"Thank you, James. Be back here after the wedding, please."
James nodded. "Thank you, miss. I'll be here."
Kitty walked towards the church. Luckily, her dress wasn't too long that she needed someone to carry it behind her. The church was quite large. Brittany was surprised that it was that big. They entered through the big, wooden doors. The church was beautifully decorated. There were flowers scattered around the floor, indicating the aisle where Kitty was going to walk later on. Kitty had already gone to her room, hoping that Ryder hadn't already seen her. The rest of the church was beautifully done. The chairs were decorated with white linens and even more flowers. In front of the church, the priest was already standing there.
"I'm going to help Kitty, okay?" Brittany whispered in Santana's ear.
Santana nodded. Brittany walked towards the room. There were two doors. Luckily two boards, bride and groom, indicating which door she should enter. She entered the door with 'bride' on it. She saw Kitty standing in front of the mirror, biting her nails nervously.
"Are you nervous?" Brittany placed a consoling on Kitty's shoulder.
"Am I nervous?" Kitty replied sarcastically. "Of course I'm nervous. This is the day I've been working on for months. It has to be perfect. And it's also the day that I can't get away anymore. From today, I will be a married woman. Since when have I grown up so much?" Kitty sighed.
"Are you not sure that you want to marry Ryder?"
Kitty took a cigarette out of a packet that she took out of her bag. Just before she lighted it, Brittany gritted it out of the blonde's mouth.
"You don't smoke Kitty, what the fuck?" Brittany said.
What the hell was she doing? She wasn't going to be one of those brides that sabotaged her own wedding, right? Brittany did not have the energy to deal with that. Brittany knew that Kitty loved Ryder and she was not running out on this wedding.
"Look, Kitty. I know that you love Ryder. You guys are weirdly perfect for each other. So you won't run out on him. You won't run away from this wedding."
"But how do I know that he's the one for me? How do I know that this is not the biggest mistake of my life? You don't know that? Nobody knows if I'll still love him after three years or ten years or even twenty? What if I get sick of him? What if he starts to annoy me? What if -?" Kitty rambled.
Brittany placed her two hands on Kitty's shoulders.
"Shut up, Kitty. You don't know that. You can't predict the future. You can only start your life, hoping for the best. Marriage is hard but if you work hard, you and Ryder will be able to work it out. Now stop your craziness and get ready. You're getting married in-" Brittany took our her phone to watch the time. "Twenty minutes."
Kitty took a deep sigh. "Okay, I got this. I love Ryder. Everything is going to be fine. This is going to be the best night of my life." Kitty took another deep sigh and sat down.
"Thanks Brittany. I actually really needed that."
"That's what your maid of honor is for, right? I knew you made the right mistake choosing me." Brittany laughed.
"Thank you." Kitty smiled and held out her arms pulling the taller blonde in a tight hug.
Brittany smiled. "You are very welcome." Kitty then let go.
Suddenly they heard a knock on the door. "Yes?" Kitty said.
Kitty's father entered the room, smiling, wearing a tuxedo. "Brittany, I think you need to go to the alter. The wedding is going to start soon." Brittany nodded as she walked through the door to the altar.
At the altar, she already saw the priest, holding, what seemed like a bible or something like that. Next to the priest, Ryder was standing in a black tuxedo. His hair was kept in place with a little bit of gel. Next to Ryder was Puck, Ryder's best man. Some bridesmaids were still standing there and Brittany put herself next to Tina.
The church was already filled up quite well. She saw Santana sitting on the second row, next to Brittany's mom. Brittany smiled at her and the brunette happily returned the smile. Brittany looked over at Ryder, who was staring right at the wooden doors where Kitty was going to walk through. Kitty was stressed out, but Ryder didn't seem stressed at all. He looked insanely happy. Today was the start of his life with Kitty. He looked like he was thinking about spending his life with the woman that he loved. His eyes were sparkling and there was a small smile playing around his lips.
"He doesn't seem nervous at all." Brittany talked to Tina.
"Yeah, I know. Good for him."
Brittany nodded. The piano started softly playing in the background and the string quartet was also getting ready. Kitty was about to arrive. Brittany's eyes were glued to the double wooden doors where the bride traditionally would pass through, clutching to the arm of her father. The string quartet and the piano started playing the familiar wedding song and everybody rose to their feet, staring at the double doors where Brittany's eyes were already landed on.
And the double doors opened, showing a smiling bride with on her side the insanely proud face of Kitty's father. Kitty seemed way more relaxed and they started walking towards the altar. Brittany couldn't stop herself from shifting her eyes to Ryder. Brittany couldn't help but smile at the sight of Ryder. He looked like the happiest person alive. His eyes twinkled even more than before and his smile was wide, revealing his white teeth. His eyes were clutched to his future wife, following her every single move like he was watching an amazing movie. Everybody's eyes were glued to the bride and her beautiful dress, the way it's supposed to be. When the duo arrived at the altar, Kitty's father placed a small kiss on her cheek and walked away. Kitty placed herself across from Ryder, returning his enormous smile.
"Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to join Ryder Lynn and Kitty Wilde in holy matrimony." Brittany tried to pay attention, but all she could hear was the priest rambling on about God stuff, and Brittany really didn't care. But then she heard the word vow and she was quite interested to hear Kitty and Ryder's vows.
The priest spoke: "Ryder Lynn, do you take Kitty Wilde whom you hold by the hand to be your lawfully wedded wife, and do you covenant to be true to her, to love, cherish, and protect her, in sickness and in health, in poverty or in wealth, until death do you part?"
"I do." Ryder spoke happily.
The priest nodded. "Kitty Wilde, do you take Ryder Lynn whom you hold by the hand to be your lawfully wedded husband, covenanting to be true to him, to love, cherish, and honor him, in sickness and in health, in poverty or in wealth, until death do you part?"
"I do." Kitty smiled.
The priest: "As a minister of the gospel, and by the authority invested in me by the State of Hawaii, I pronounce you to be to each other, husband and wife. Whom therefore God hath joined together, let no man put asunder. You may kiss the bride." Ryder didn't hold back and leaned in. Everyone clapped.
"May I present to you, Mr. and Mrs. Lynn." The priest spoke his final words. Everyone cheered and clapped again as the newly wedded couple walked down the aisle.
After that everyone started walking outside. Brittany stepped a little faster to walk next to Santana.
"Hi." Brittany laughed.
"Brittany. We're fucked. Do you see that guy Sam is talking to?" Santana pointed at Sam, talking to a guy wearing a green suit.
Brittany shrugged. "Yeah? Who is he?"
"His name is Rory Flanagan. He was a former client of me. Brittany, he could tell Sam about what I do. He could tell him about what we've been doing." Santana whispered.
Oh shit.
