Hey Readers! I really hope that you enjoy this next chapter.
Shoutouts: Thank you to my friend Tori for making the awesome book covers for both of my stories.
Thanks for all the reviews guys, while most of my story is fluff... I can assure you that the next few chapters you will need to prepare yourselves. I've changed the rating for adult language and adult content for that reason. Please understand, the next few chapters are not for the faint of heart.
Disclaimer:I don't Austin and Ally or the Disney Channel. I do own my original characters in my story, Kate, Isabelle, Christopher, Will, Jessica, etc.

Ally's POV
...
There's so many finite details that have taken place over the past five months. I've already had my first dress fitting and I've lost a little bit of weight and I swear that I'm eating but between working out and the stress the inches are just falling off of me. I think it has to do more with anxiety, the dress has to fit perfect. I refuse to marry Austin in any other dress but this one. Today, Trish and I will be going to the bridal boutique for my second fitting. I'm so nervous and anxious, I'm still worried that the dress won't fit or it won't look the way I've always imagined it to look on my body so close before the wedding. Austin and I booked our honeymoon to Bora Bora a month ago and seriously we just can't wait to get away from everyone and everything and have time just to the two of us. No internet, no smartphones, just using our cameras set in airplane mode of course and enjoying and loving every single inch of each other's body. Oops! Sorry about that, it's just my fiancé is so hot. Where was I? Oh yes, so we booked our honeymoon, finalized the limo, met with our florist, decided on our wedding cake, etc. Before we go over the the boutique Trish is coming over to try a bridal hairstyle so of course the second she gets here I'm sending Dez off with him to go get fitted for their tuxes.
It's early May, but it's hot enough that I just slip on a red strapless cotton dress with pockets in the front. Oh, the cotton just feels so good on my skin and it'll be easy to slip into my wedding dress at the fitting. I'm in the bedroom getting dressed, and hear Austin singing down in the kitchen and call down to him,
"Austin! You need to get in the shower. Trish is going to be here in a half hour. I need you showered and dressed and ready to walk out of the house to go get fitted for your tux and go meet Dez."
"I'm coming babe, let me just finish-"
Ally cuts him off, "Your pancakes."
Austin smirks and pecks her on the mouth, " You know me so well."
Austin hops in the shower and has time to throw on a red polo, cargo shorts and sneakers, Ally speaks to him from her vanity and into the steamy bathroom, " Oh and don't forget -"
"My dress socks. I know, baby." Austin coos to Ally. Austin gets dressed and dials Dez, Dez picks up on the third ring,
"Hey Man! Trish just left so I'm assuming that Ally is making you haul ass to get out of the house at the moment?'
Austin chuckles, " Yeah man! Listen just meet me at Dante's Tuxedo place in about 15 minutes. Oh, and before I forget bring"
"My dress socks." Austin chuckles at Dez for reading his mind,
"Alright man, well spend some time with your fiancée before mine gets there, and we don't see them for a couple of hours."
"I'm already ahead of you buddy." Austin hangs up the phone with Dez and walks over to the vanity she's sitting at, he kisses Ally's cheek and her head to gain better access to her neck and she swears that he likes to torture her on purpose. Ally responds just as eagerly when she kisses him thinking,
You're on Moon. Two can play at this game.
Ally starts to nibble on Austin's ear and brings her lips back to his,
"Mmmm A-U-S-T-I-N." Ally moans into his ears knowing that in 3, 2, 1 and he has a boner, " We don't have time for this. I'm sorry."
"But babe, you've got my engine all revved up and this isn't fair." Austin whines.
Ally smiles coyly, "Well then, perhaps you should've though about that when you started kissing my neck."
The doorbell rings, and Ally gets up and leaves her fiance in shock and to figure out a way to take care of his problem at the moment. She glances over her shoulder and winks at him,
"I better get that. " Austin sprints to his feet but he's not fast enough to get to her before she gets to the door.
Ally yells from the bottom of the stairs, "Austin! Trish is here!"
Trish smiles and greets Ally in a huge bear hug, "When is Austin going to come down? I have a very limited amount of time to get you ready before the fitting." Ally starts to blush and Trish could spot that blush miles away,
"Oh my god! You guys were about to get hot and heavy right before I came -" Ally cuts her best friend off,
"Well, no but he started to kiss my neck and then I started nibbling on his ear and.."
" Whoa! Let me cut you off right there! I know that he's your fiance, but I don't need to hear about a guy who I view as my brother sporting an erection that he's probably as we speak taking care of right now."
Austin relieves himself and comes down to greet Trish hands clean after about ten minutes or so. One look at Trish and she knows that he and Ally were about to...
Austin averts his gaze to the floor like a puppy who's about to get scolded for doing something bad, "Austin! It's about freaking time! You were up there for I'm guessing at least ten minutes and Ally already told me that you showered so all you had to do was get dressed."
Austin looks up and smirks, "I'm sorry Trish, but I just can't help myself around Ally. I love her and I just want to be with her in every way possible.. physical, mental and emotional."
Ally bats her eyelashes at him and smiles, "Aw, that was so sweet Austin." He walks over and kisses Ally's forehead.
Trish interrupts their Auslly moment, "Yeah Romeo, alright now grab your keys, kiss your fiance, and go meet mine at the tuxedo place, and tell him that I love him when you get there."
Austin responds, "Yes Mam! Alright Stardoll, well I'm going to head out but -"
"Not before you get your kiss." Austin grabs his keys and walks out the door to his 2-door, yellow Porsche. He starts the engine and drives off to meet Dez.
Trish looks at Ally, "Seriously, how do you guys do that? You communicate with looks and your minds. It's really cute and don't get me started on your nicknames for each other."
"Trish, let's just do my hair. We're running out of time and I promise on the way to the fitting you can fangirl over us all you want." Trish grabs the curling iron and gets to work on Ally's hair, it takes her about a hair hour to pin her hair all up with two tendrils pulled out at highlighting her high cheekbones. Trish finishes Ally's hair, the two grab their purses, and Ally's wedding shoes, her wedding dress that she's kept hidden from Austin and grabs her keys. Ally locks the door, gets in her sleek red convertible, hood up for now, and open's the gate to their house as they get ready to leave.
Scene Change
The drive to Belle's Bridal Boutique is short. They pull up to the familiar parking lot and Ally parks her car. They step out of the car, dress and wedding shoes in tow, and smile when they reach the glass door of the boutique with that beautiful red rose on it. They walk in and are greeted by Isabelle who says that the seamstress Darlene will be out in a moment.
Trish and Ally sit down in the chairs in the front of the boutique while they wait for Darlene to come out, a few minutes later she does.
"Ms. Dawson, it's nice to see you again. We're here for our second fitting? Correct?" Darlene says in a kind tone,
"Yes Darlene, our wedding is about a month away now or so." Ally smiles widely.
"Alright, well let's get you into the fitting room, Did you need Trish to go in there with you or would you rather her just lace you up after your dress is on?" She inquires Ally,
"Oh no! I'll just slip the dress on. I already have my corset on underneath my current dress, so it shouldn't be a problem." Ally walks into the fitting room and changes quickly,
"Trish, can you come here a second? I need you to lace me up for Darlene."
"Of course Ally, not a problem." Trish is positively beaming at her best friend. Trish laces Ally up as tight as possible and not to the point she can't breathe, but definitely tight enough, that's for sure.
Darlene has Ally step onto the platform to get a better look at her, the length is perfect, her body looks incredible, but she's going to have to take the dress in an inch or so.
"Ally, it looks like you've easily lost 15 pounds since your last fitting. So, this is what I want you to do. You need to lower your cardio at the gym and I want you to start eating ice cream, cookies, chips just to maintain this weight. I know you want your dress to be perfect and I'm sure it's just stress, but believe me when I tell you that everything's going to be perfect."
"I know Darlene, I'm sorry it's just sometimes I feel like there's this added pressure because I'm a celebrity, and I feel like people forget that I have feelings too. I'll tell Austin to buy me a ton of Fruity Mint Swirl when I get home. I promise."
"Well Ally, other than me having to take your dress in about an inch your wedding dress looks great on you. I'll see you for your last fitting about a week or so before the wedding."
Ally changes back into her cotton dress and comes out of the dressing room. She can't believe that her last fitting is going to be in a few weeks. Ally and Trish say goodbye to Darlene and Isabelle arm in arm thinking,
I wonder how the guys are doing right now.
Scene Change
Austin's POV
Dez and I have just arrived at Dante's Tuxedo's to get fitted for our tuxes. Dez and I walk through the glass doors with black bars, and into the tuxedo shop. As we walk in, we notice that the store is kind of busy. Thankfully, we've made our appointment for around the same time Ally will be at her bridal dress fitting. We're greeted by a man in his mid forty's who I'm assuming is the tailor that will be taking mine and Dez's measurements,
"Good Afternoon, my name is Christopher and I'll be assisting you today. Do you have an appointment?"
I respond back, "Yes, we do it should be under the last name Moon. I'm the groom, Austin. This is my best man, Dez. My cousin Will is also a groomsmen, so I'll have him get measured by another tailor, give you his measurements as soon as I get them."
Christopher starts with his list on standard questions he asks soon-to-be grooms, "Alright Austin, let's get started. Tell me about your venue. Are you getting married in a church, on the beach, in the city on the roof of a building? Do you have a particular style tux in mind for yourself?"
"Well, the last time I was fitted for a tux was prom. So, it has been a while. My fiancee and I are getting married on the beach. I would like to wear a dark gray tux, white button down, slacks, socks, but I won't be needing shoes. You see, I've brought my own, and so has Dez. I would like Dez and Will in light gray tuxes."
Christopher looks at Austin a little puzzled by his last statement, "Oh?"
Austin and Dez opens their boxes to reveal Austin's red high-top converses, and Dez's yellow high top converses, as well as their own dress socks,
"Since our wedding ceremony is going to take place on the beach, I'm going a little less traditional and wearing red converse high tops instead of dress shoes."
Christopher looks surprised, "Well that's certainly different, but I like it. I like it a lot. Alright, so where were we? Ah, yes! What size dress shirts do you guys normally wear?"
Austin replies, "I wear a size 16 neck. Dez what size do you wear?"
Dez responds back with, " I'm typically a size 15 neck."
"Alright, I will go get you the shirts in your size. In the meantime, Austin pick out the style tux you want in our "look book" and choose another for Dez and Will."
Austin stands at the desk and looks through the look book, he comes across a dark grey tux that he thinks will look great. Dez looks at the book as well, Dez's style has matured over the years, but Austin will give Dez the pop color tie and vest to make him feel more like himself. Will is really chill and laid back so he'll just go with whatever they decide without any issue. Dez points to a light gray tux for himself and will.
"Alright, here are your shirts. Now, please show me which tuxes you'd like to try on, and before I go, I need you to choose your color vests, and ties ."
Austin tells Christopher that he wants the traditional satin white vest, and the points to the tie that is white on the top but fades into red towards the bottom. Dez says that he and Austin have agreed on satin bright yellow vests, and a matching yellow tie for himself and Will.
Christopher brings back the tuxes for Austin and Dez to try on while they put on their own dress socks that they've already bought. Austin bought red, yellow, and black argyle style socks for his tux while Dez bought red, yellow, and blue diagonal designed socks for his tux. The two men go into their own fitting rooms and try on the tuxes. When they come out Christopher has Austin get on a pedestal, measuring his chest, sleeve length, pant width and length. He does the same for Dez as well, it takes about an hour total at the tuxedo shop for the two to get properly fitted. They're both pleased with the looks that they've chosen for the day of the wedding, go back into the fitting room to change back into their regular clothes. Austin finishes changing first and comes out when his phone starts to ring, he'd recognize that ringtone anywhere, Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now his special ringtone for Ally, he lets the phone ring once hearing the lyrics Baby we can make it if we're heart to heart, and picks up on the second ring,
"Well hello beautiful! Are you and Trish finished with your bridal fitting?" Austin asks his fiancée.
"Yes, we are Austin and I was so nervous that I didn't eat before it. Are you and Dez almost finished at the tuxedo shop?" Ally inquires back to him.
Austin can't wait to see her and wants to get out of the store as soon as possible, "Yes Stardoll, we should be finishing up in the next few minutes. I am just waiting for Dez and then we need to ask the tailor when to pick up our tuxes and then we'll leave. Want to meet us some food and drinks?"
Ally is anxiously waiting to see him too, "Yes, sounds great. Let's go to Paradise Bar & Grill. We'll head over there now and meet you both in fifteen minutes. Okay Superstar, we'll see you soon. I love you."
Austin responds excitedly, "I love you too, always & forever. I promise. See you soon gorgeous!"Austin hangs up the phone, Dez has walked out in regular clothes, they go up to the desk and ask Christopher when they should pick up their tuxes including Will's,
"Alright gentlemen, Austin please get me Will's measurements within the next few days so I can have his tux attire ready along with yours and Dez's. I need you to pick up your tuxes about three days prior to your wedding."
Austin and Dez thank Christopher, telling him that he'll get Will's measurements to him as soon as possible. They walk out of the tuxedo shop go to their cars. Austin get in his yellow porsche, and Dez gets in his blue car follows him over to the restaurant. The two drive out of the parking lot and down the road to Paradise Bar & Grill to meet their fiancée's.
Scene Change
Austin sees Ally's car, and parks his yellow porsche with Dez pulling up right alongside of him. The two men get out of their car and walk into the bar.
Ally and Trish wave them over, and hug and kiss their guys when all of a sudden unfamiliar feeling washes over Ally as she tries to smile but thinks to herself,
Wow, everything is going so smoothly. I know that I should be grateful but I just have this overwhelming feeling. I can't explain what it feels like other than the calm before the storm.
A/N: The storm is coming. Find out in the next chapter what exactly that means. ;-) xoxo
