"That dress will look gorgeous! I bet Mark will love the color!" Mia remarked, waving toward Mark's car. The boys waved back and we giggled.
"So this place looks delicious!" Savannah commented at the blinking sign mounted over Chow's.
"It is! You know, this was the first place Mark and I went together!" I smiled. All the girls squealed and I shushed them as we approached Mark.
"Ready to get some food?" Mark asked. We nodded.
"We gotta be quick.. Bob and Wade are supposed to leave after lunch." Mark noted. I threw a sad look their way.
"Can't you just stay forever?" I complained. Mark always seemed like a little kid on Christmas when the boys were back in town.
"Afraid not. Life will go on without us if we don't head back." Sean commented.
"Please tell me you're not leaving soon too, Sean?!" I said.
"I am. Later tonight, sadly!" he replied. I sighed.
We walked into the restaurant and a waitress walked us to a table. We all sat down and ordered drinks.
"So, Carly you head back to school tomorrow, right?" Savannah asked. I nodded.
"Yeah, when do you go back Sav?" I asked.
"I'm hitting the road tomorrow actually. Move in day for freshmen is Wednesday but for the rest of us, we can head up there anytime between now and Friday. I wanted to go ahead and get the heavy lifting out of the way." She responded. We all nodded.
"Do you guys know what you want?" The waitress asked, giving everyone their drinks.
"We'll have the Everything Platter." Mark said, before anyone could order. The waitress nodded and walked off.
"Everything?" Savannah asked.
"It has some of every kind of sushi. You'll love it!" I whispered. She smiled.
"So what about a date?" Holly asked, sipping her water.
"Well. Carly and I talked about it on and off for a while. I think we decided on December tenth." Mark said. I nodded in agreement.
"That sounds great!" squealed Jan.
"Yeah, we wanted to take a week to go on the honeymoon and relax. Then we're headed to Mark's old home to spend time with his family before Christmas." I said to everyone.
"That sounds nice! Where are you going for the honeymoon?" Sean asked.
"It's actually a surprise! I made the plans awhile back but I'm keeping it from her!" Mark said with a wink. I grumbled playfully and nudged him. He laughed. The waitress brought the food and we all began to dig in.
"And when did you need us back for the main dress?" Mia asked.
"Actually, I'm heading in with my mom in a couple of weeks. I want to surprise everyone with it, so I'm keeping it under wraps." I replied.
"I bet it will be gorgeous!" Jan added. The girls nodded.
