"Sophie Elizabeth Foster. Will you marry me?"


~3 Months Later~

No One's POV:

"I can't believe this day came after all this time and all the troubles we have faced," Sophie says to her best friends Biana, Marella, and Linh. They were helping each other get ready for this big occasion. Sophie normally didn't like getting all dressed up, but for this occasion, she didn't mind. After all, it was a special occasion.

Sophie's POV:

"I'm so nervous. I can't even think straight. What if I mess up. What if something goes wrong. What if . . ." I was cut off by all my friends surrounding me in a big group hug. "Sophie you are not the only one. All of us are nervous too. But out of all of us, Biana is the most nervous of us all. I mean she does have a big job." The encouraging words Marella says to me help me calm down a little bit. "Now let's start getting ready. After all, we don't want it waiting on us," Linh says as we are pulled towards where our outfits are hanging up in the closet of the dressing room we were using. The boys are in the dressing room next to ours getting ready. 'I wonder how they are doing.' I thought before I have my dress shoved into my arms by Biana. "Go put it on. We only have an hour and a half to get ready. And you know it will take forever." She shoves me towards the screen that divides me from the room where I have my privacy to change.

I hang the dress on the hook so I don't get it dirty as I change out of the outfit I am wearing now. I take off my clothes except for my undergarments and fold them and put them in a pile on the chair that is in here as well. I take the dress delicately off the hanger so I don't ruin it in any way. I don't want my clumsy self to ruin it before I have even worn it besides the fitting that happened a few weeks ago.

~Flashback to the dress fitting~

I start walking out of the changing room in the dress shop after trying on the 12th dress today. I hope that this is the final dress today. I want to get back home and sleep. Today has been so exhausting. 

I finally make it to where all my friends have been waiting for me. As soon as I am seen, I can see the glow in their eyes. This is definitely the dress. "Wow Sophie, I think we just found the dress," Biana says to me clapping her hands as she jumps up and down in excitement. "I think you're more excited about it than Sophie is," Linh points out. "No. It's fine. I'm just tired," I say to Linh. "That would make sense. We have been here since 6 this morning trying on dresses all day," Marella says from her spot on Linh's shoulder. She then gives a yawn and sits up. "I mean I'm tired too. I could use a nap about now."

~Current Moment~

"That really was a long day," I say out loud with a laugh. I finally step into the dress and put it on. I walk out to my friends to ask for help with zipping up my dress because I can't reach the zipper and I don't want to ruin it either.

I walk out from behind the screen and ask, "Can someone help me with the zipper?" "I've got it," Linh says walking over to me. I turn around so my back is towards her. She grabs ahold of the zipper and pulls it upward closing the dress on me. 

Me, Marella, and Linh finish helping each other get ready. After we all finish, we then go and help Biana get ready because we only have 30 minutes to be fully ready before the main event. We push Biana towards the screen to change into her dress. When she comes out, I zip up her dress for her. We then go and do her makeup and hair. 

By the time we finish, there is a knock on the door. "Biana are you ready?" Alden, her father asks from the other side of the door. "Yup. We are just finishing up now. We don't want to keep Tam waiting on his bride," Marella says to Alden. Alden walks in to see Biana getting up from the chair she was sitting in and turning around. "Wow. My baby girl is all grown up. I still can't believe that you are getting married today." "Let's get going. We don't want to keep Tam waiting," Bian says as she loops her arm through her dad's.  "Well I guess we better start heading out," I say to Marella and Linh.
