Chapter 4: finally's and fittings
It was the day of the fitting for the dresses and suits. Everyone was late except Diana and Andy. "Where are they! I told them 2:30 it's 3:00." Diana said annoyed "Calm down Diana." "Oh YOUR telling ME to calm down because your just the king of calmness." "LISTEN DIANA!" "Calm down." She said mockingly. Andy took a deep breath "They are on their way NOW! Is there anything I can do to help." Andy asked. "I guess you can put your suit on." "Okay." "And I will put on my bridesmaids dress I have nothing better to do." They both went to separate dressing rooms (one for the boys the other for girls.) when they both came out to the main room they looked at each other. "Wow Diana you have done some amazing work before but these these are fantastic." "Well duh I spent like 8 months on them." "Well it shows" he said looking in a full length mirror. "Follow me." She lead him to the back of her studio. At the back there was a giant curved mirror she lead him up the three small steps that led to the mirror. "You can see yourself better in this one." Diana said. He was looking at himself in the mirror. "I might have to make some minor adjustments." She said. "Like what?" "I should make the arms tighter, show off your muscles." She was massaging his arms as she said this.
Then suddenly she moved to the front of him. "I should make the tie longer too." She said grabbing his tie. She looked up into his eyes and pulled him in a bit closer he put his hands on her hips. She was bringing her lips closer to his again. He did the same. But again she pulled away "Umm do those changes sound god to you." She said in a breaking whisper. "Diana I can't wait anymore." Andy said pulling her in even closer. They just started at each other for a while then it finally happened. They weren't sure who started it. It was long overdue it wasn't a passionate kiss. It was a loving kiss. They both were waiting for so long. "Sorry we're late traffic was…" Joy stopped apron seeing her two friends. When they heard Joys voice they immediately stepped away from each other. "Umm… ahh so An…dy that that suit fits just just fine." Diana said stuttering. "Oh Hey guys umm…" Diana did not realize that it wasn't only Joy who saw them kiss but Fred, all the bridesmaids and groomsmen. "Umm down that hallway dresses to the left suits to the right." Diana said hoping to distract them. There was a pause. "DID YOU ALL GO DEFT, SHE SAID GET IN YOUR CLOTHES!" Andy yelled. "Thank you Andy" Diana said trying to sound calm. "Which one ya think she's thanking him for the outburst or the kiss." Kacy whispered jokingly. "Now idiots." Diana said. They all filed out but Diana saw Terry mouth "nice" to Andy.
When they all went into the dressing rooms. Diana turned around to face Andy. "You okay with them knowing." She asked. "Yea! You?" "Yea." She said smiling. He sat down on the steps and patted the place next to him. She sat. "So you doing anything tonight?" Andy asked. "I have to work really late tonight sorry." Diana said apologetically. "What time do you get off." Andy said grabbing her hand. "Not till 9:00." She said putting her head on his shoulder. "I will think of something don't worry." Andy said putting his arm around her. "Nothing fancy okay I will be tired." "Don't worry it will be relaxing; I will pick ya up at 9:30 okay." "Okay Andy!"
"DIANA." It was Jordan "We got a problem." Diana followed Jordan to the girls dressing room she saw Sandy sitting on the floor crying surrounded by the other bridesmaids. "What's going on?" Diana said. No one answered. She walked over to Sandy and saw a huge tear in the dress. "WHAT DID YOU DO!" "I am sorry Diana it was an accident please say you can fix it." "I can I will just have to stay EVEN LATER but whatever I'll reschedule you for 8:00 a.m tomorrow." Diana said rolling her eyes. "We have a TV crew from food TV coming at 8 in the morning." Okay well I don't have another time available so just wear a weird fitting dress." Diana said angrily. "Diana lay off her." Joy said comforting Sandy. "Joy I spent a long time on that dress and she ruined it." "Joy it's fine I will reschedule with food TV." Sandy said wiping her tears. "WHATS TAKING YOU GIRLS SO LONG ALL THE BOYS ARE OUT HERE!" Andy shouted, they could hear Fred shushing him.
"We're coming!" Joy said exited. She was the first out "JOY you forgot the veil and shoes." Amanda said. "I'm not wearing them but don't worry they fit." Joy said walking into the main room. Fred's jaw dropped. "Joy you look amazing forget superstition I wanna see the whole look." "I am so glad you said that." Joy said as she ran back to the dressing room.
Diana was fixing up David's suite when Joy walked in. "WOW!" Fred said amazed. "You look absolutely beautiful." "You look really Handsome as well." Joy said. Everyone was looking at Joy.
"People your only booked for two more hours." Diana said . "How long is this gunna take." Kacy said. "Two more hours." "If we already got fitted can we leave." David said. "Sure." Everyone left except Terry, Joy, Fred and Andy. "Andy I already did you, you can leave." Diana said. "No if it's okay with you can I stay." Andy said nervously. "Okay?" Diana replied confused. "Your next Joy."
Andy and Terry sat down and waited. "So that's Diana." Terry asked (he didn't say it mockingly like the others would, that's why he and Andy had become such fast friends.) "yeah!" Andy said exited. "You going out tonight." "Yea but she has to work late so I have no idea what I'm gunna do." Andy said worried. "I got an idea." Whispered Terry. "You should go and have a picnic on the football field, you'll be able to see the stars and all that." "That's a fantastic idea. Man your a genius." Said Andy. "You owe me season tickets for that." Terry said. "Deal."
"Okay Terry your last." Diana said. "I better go." Andy said (he had to get ready for their date.) "Okay. See ya tonight." She said smiling. "Looking forward to it." Andy said closing the door.
"Is it true you won over $5,000 at one of Andy's poker games." Diana asked Terry."Yea." He said with a laugh. "That's amazing I mean those guys are like pros." Diana said fixing up his suite. "Well Andy gave me a lot of tips before." "Oh he was not happy about you beating him." Diana said. "You think he would be used to losing." Terry said. "Don't let him hear you say that." Diana said laughing. "Well I am done." Diana said. "Thanks." Terry said. "No problem."
9:30
Andy pulled up to her studio exactly on time he knocked on the door with a bouquet of flowers in his other hand hidden behind his back. "Come in." He opened the door. She was at her sewing machine sewing Sandy's dress and yawning. "I am so sorry Andy I am almost done." "How could she do that it's such a nice dress!" Andy said. "I don't know but I had to schedule her for tomorrow." Diana said yawning. When Andy heard the yawn he was worried "You wanna have our date tomorrow?" Andy asked. "No way I have been waiting for this date for ten years!" Diana said. "Well in that case." Andy stepped towards her and handed her the flowers kissing her on the cheek. "Oh my god Andy their beautiful." She said happily. "I knew you would like them." Andy said smiling. "I just have to finish this then we can go." Diana said now much more awake. "Okay." Andy said sitting on a couch reaching for a newspaper. She finished fixing the dress at 10:00.
"Done!" She said exited. "Great lets go." Andy said They both grabbed their coats and headed out the door. "So what are we doing tonight!" Diana said smiling. "It's a surprise!" Andy said opening the car door for her "I hate you." Diana said jokingly.
