honey's pov

i wake up, walk down the hall to wake up tora and sage. i knock and knock but no one answers. i go in their room to see their bed made up and the bathroom empty. "where did they go" i walk out of their room and walk down the hall leading to the living room. i look out the window to see no car or nothing. "where could they actually be" i question kind of getting frustrated. i walk to kitchen to make me some coffee and oatmeal. i see a note on my cabinet saying "we're out shopping arabella wants to meet with you today. have a good day hon! xoxo - tora and sage." i nod at the note and make my coffee and oatmeal. i head to the couch and turn on the tv seeing family feud. i watch some until i was finish eating. i put my mug and bowl in the dishwasher and head down the hall fo get ready. i freshen up and pick out something simple. i leave out the house, locking it up and get on my motorcycle. i drive to the other side of gotham to ara's house. i knock and she comes to the door all excited. she pulls me in and sits me on the couch. "i'm getting married in a month and i need youuuu to help me" she chimes, smiling non stop. "beg your pardon your getting what" i ask trying to process what she was telling me. "i'm getting MARRIED" she squeal, jumping up and down. "no fucking way arabella that's literally amazing. congrats" i congratulate her and she sits back down. "i need your help looking for a dress and decor" "okay well what is the style you'd like" "something long with a train but nothing too extra." i take in her words processing what the dress would look like. "there's a place in upper east side, wanna go and see" "absolutely," we get our things and drive off. a few minutes later we get to the store. she looks around at all the dresses, amazed at the variety she has to choose from. she goes through at least 5 different dresses. "i don't like any of them, don't get me wrong they're all beautiful but they just don't match my ideal dress" we walk out of the dress store and to her car. "wanna try a different store?" "duh i'm not giving up that easily" she drive to another store that was much bigger and has a variety of dresses. "do you have any dresses that aren't really extra but has a train" the lady nods and leaves going to the back to see the dresses. she comes back holding a long dress with a beautiful train. "do you like this one?" she asked, ara nods and goes to try on the dress. 10 minutes later she comes out, a smile is painted on her face, letting her dimples show. "holy shit girl you look magnificent." i compliment her, she smiles as she spins around. she looks very happy. "this is the one" she smiles, she goes back into the fitting room, comes out and pays for her dress. "i'm so happy" she squeals, i smile with a little chuckle. "now we have to get your dress" i pause and look at her. "oh come on, you'll look good" she said in a 'duh' tone. she grabs my hand and we head to the car. she puts her dress in the trunk and we go to find a dress for me. "what are the theme colors?" "gold and purple of course" she giggles, pressing the gas. we arrive at a dress store, one that i've never seen before. we get out of the car and walk in. "hello what can i help with today" the lady said from behind the counter. "we're looking for a dress for a maid of honor in gold" ara said quite confidently. she heads to the back and comes out with 3 dresses. "we can add or take some pieces away if they don't fit" she added, i walk off into the fitting room with the three dresses. i come out, holding my hands, ara face lights up. "i like this dress. i really do, it shows your curves" she announced. i make my way back into the dressing room to try on the second one. i come out and her face looks disgusted. "what? you don't like it?" i asked, pretty confused on why she was making that face. "i just doesn't seem like your type." i go back into the fitting room and try on the last dress, hoping we would both agree on it. i slip on the dress, looking in the mirror to see how i look. i'm satisfied with the dress, it seems my type and i just hope ara agrees. i walk out and her starts clapping. "holy mucking moly you look stunning. i love this dress. do you like it?" "of course i do" she claps some more, squealing with excitement. i head back to the fitting room and slip off the dress, putting my regular clothes back on. i walk out, pay for the dress and we leave. once we're in the car, my phone starts going off. no caller id. i don't answer call and put my phone on silent. "where do you wanna eat" ara asked, looking ahead. "anything, i'm hungry" i groan, making her laugh. we drive to a nearby asian place and my stomach starts growling. "crab rangoon with the good red sauce and lo mein noodles with sesame chicken on the side" i tell her, she nods and gets out, walking into the asian place. five minutes after she gets out the person calls back again. "god damnit what do you want joker" i growl, but it's not him, it's some girl giggling. i hang up and put my head back resting my eyes. my phone vibrates, i pick up the phone to see a text saying "stay away from my puddin. he doesn't like you" i  laugh aloud, turning off my phone. ara comes back with the food, smiling as usual. she passes it to me, making my stomach growl even more. i dig into my crab rangoon, feeling my starvation go away. i moan in satisfaction as i take one more bite. "gosh such a whore for food" ara said shaking her head. "that i am" i agreed. i close the box, putting it back in the bag.  we get home, sit down our things and continue to dig in. "food has never tasted so good" i moan eating the rest of my crab rangoon. i start eating my lo mein noodles and chicken. "damn i don't understand how you can eat so much" ara blurted out into the open. "well breakfast wasn't that really filling and i also have high metabolism" i finish up my chicken and lord mein and throw away my trash. i head upstairs literally falling onto my bed and falling sleep.
