The dress
That was the one. She had found it. After what seemed like days of searching that was it. Penny could hear her mum, Bernadette and Amy lightly sobbing behind her as she stared in the mirror. It was perfect. She had found the dress. It was an elegant strapless dress, with lace at the hem and delicate hand-beaded details throughout and a fitted bodice that had been hand-beaded and it had an elegant ribbon closure on back. It was stunning. It showed off her figure brilliantly, it hugged her boobs just right. She fell in love with it as soon as she put it on. It was her dress.
"Oh baby, you look so beautiful!" her mum finally choked. They had face timed her, as Penny promised. She was shocked at how beautiful her baby girl was. She looked like a goddess. "This is the one." Penny sighed happily. She girls cooed and cheered. Penny had found it.
After Penny had taken the dress off and paid for it, the girls started looking at accessories. Amy tried to get Penny to wear a tiara, but she wasn't going to. Penny didn't want to go too over the top. She wanted to have a nice, simple, small wedding. She didn't want the massive dress, with the crown jewels. She didn't want to have a horse and carriage; she didn't want the massive palace as a reception hall. All she wanted was to have Leonard for the rest of her life. She ended up getting a vale and some white high heels. She was so excited. The wedding felt so real now and she couldn't wait. The girls chatted all of the way home, about how gorgeous she looked, and wedding plans in general. She had about 4 months to go before the big day, and she felt quite happy with what she had done. She had gotten the venue sorted, picked out her dress, ordered the flowers, cake and centre pieces. She couldn't wait.
When she returned, she found Leonard sat on the sofa with his laptop on his lap. She dumped her bags on the floor and walked over to him. She sat down next to him and snuggled into his neck. "You alright honey?" Leonard asked, as he put his arm around her. "I'm absolutely perfect" she replied with a smile on her face. "I take it you got a dress then" Leonard replied, placing his laptop on the coffee table. Penny nodded, he could always see right through her. "That's great!" he said, "Makes it feel more real now doesn't it?" Penny turned her head towards his and kissed him. "Yes, and I can't wait" she whispered into his ear. They both smiled at each other, looking lovingly into each other's eyes. Penny then snugged back into his chest, breathing him in. She looked at his laptop to see what he was doing and noticed that he had been looking at holiday destinations. "What have you been doing then?" she asked him. "Well, I thought we could have a look at places we could go on our honeymoon, and I thought I'd get a head start!" she smiled at him. She loved it when he did things like that. He was so thoughtful and cared a lot about her, and judging by the places he was looking at, made sure that they had a good honeymoon. She picked up his laptop and started scrolling through his choices. She was impressed.
After a few minutes of discussion, they decided they would go to the Maldives, as it was quiet, isolated and beautiful. Penny couldn't wait. She had never been on holiday with Leonard before, yet she wasn't nervous. She was so excited; she started telling his all the things they could do there. She had never been out of America before, so it would be a whole new experience for her that she would take with her new husband. After about 2 hours, Penny finally stopped talking about their honeymoon and moved onto the girls again. She always talked about then to Leonard, and she never really knew why. It was just something they always spoke about. She told him about their reaction to her dress and then told him some of the nitty gritty details about their relationship. Leonard loved this, as he saw a side to his friends that he wouldn't normally see and that made him chuckle every time.
After they ate dinner, they decided to catch up on Game of Thrones. It was their favourite show, and they both enjoyed watching it. They snuggled on the sofa with the blanket with sleeves, happy in the comfort of each other's arms. Once it finished they went to bed, both pleasantly satisfied with their days. Penny lied there for a minute, taking in Leonard's warmth, thinking. Every day that passed, they became a day closer to the wedding. This put a smile on her face. She brought their woven hands towards her face and kissed his knuckles. "I love you so much Leonard" she whispered.
