"Why will I dance?" Roux asks as she folds her arms and stares at Naomi.

"Because you have to"

"You will have enough dances with your husband, with dad then Nathan and I am sure your brothers-in-law"

"You will be not leaving the dance floor, so no need for my dance"

"But bridesmaids should at least give a performance" Naomi argues.

"Really?" Roux asks as her eyes moves from Summer's tired face, to Leah's unsure ones and to August standing in her dirty coverall as she had rushed from her work.

"Nope" Roux finalizes.

"But we all did same for Leah's wedding, why can you not dance for mine?" she groans.

"Because that was the first wedding in the family, we used all of our energy to it" Roux points and Naomi stomps her foot.

"You call you husband you do are giving a performance, Leon is the son-in-law of this house so he better be welcomed to Richard" Naomi points a finger at Leah who blinks.

"I think we both know how that will turn out"

"Fine, then I will give him a call telling him you will dance with some other man, he has not even known about" Naomi threatens.

"As if he will fall for that" Leah smiles as she gets up.

"Are we here for the dance discussion? Are we done?" August asks as she puts her phone down.

"Yeah, can I go rest, I am so tired" Summer mumbles as she hugs Roux for support.

"What do they make you do in the office? You look terrible" Naomi stares at her sister.

"Can I ask for rain check? They are bringing in a Lamborghini and dad has promised to let me work on it" August asks.

"Fine go, all of you shoo, no one needs to be in my wedding, don't even pretend you all are happy for me. I hate you all" Naomi shouts before she turns and stomps out of the room.

"Now her bridezilla's mode is on" Roux points.

"I will see you guys later" August informs as she stands up to walk away.

"Do stay online for the dance classes, August you are behind. Gabby will kill if you missed a move" Roux warns the girl.

"I am practicing the moves, so chill" August announces rushing out.

"What will we do about Naomi's mood?" Summer asks as she stares at Leah.

"I am sure she will forget everything when we do the group dance and she will be happy about the surprise" Leah informs.

"Yeah, if we are alive from her wrath" Roux mumbles.

*********

"I hate everyone, they are not even listening to me. I mean I was so supportive of Leah at her wedding, I danced in two songs and they cannot pull even one. I don't want to get married, let's cancel" Naomi cries through the phone.

"Woah, okay, relax, deep breathes"

"I don't want deep breathes" Naomi snaps.

"Baby, stop talking and deep breathes, dry those tears" Richard asks before he gets a video call and he watches Naomi cry loudly staring at the screen showing her tears to him.

"Firestorm"

"The wedding is in four days and they have no practiced at all and we have our first dance to finish too, I don't want to step on your toes and injure you" she sobs.
