chapter 28

Epilogue

I clasp on the last piece. All done! “Are you done Bell?” I call and look over. She is still struggling to put on her earrings. I just end up laughing at her as she cries out.

“DAMN these hurt!”

“Well you should keep earrings in more often!”

“But they annoy me.” she whines and then lets go and jumps up and down excitedly. “I got it in! HA.”

“That’s what she said.” I snicker. She sticks her tongue out childishly and puts the back in and then turns and twirls her dress for me.

“How is it?”

“Absolutely perfect! You ready now?”

“Yes. I am finally ready.” She mocks me and steps into her heels. I stick my feet in my own and then at  perfect moment the doorbell rang. We grin to one another as the boys step in.

Josh and Ryan. Oh god, they clean up well.

“Girls are you ready?” Bells dad calls for us. We share a look and nod.

“YEAH were ready. Coming.” And then step out. The boy’s smirks drop from their faces as they take us in.

Isabel was dressed in a light purple prom dress that gave a slight poof that started at her waist. Hugged all her curves yet still stylish. Especially liked the crisscross in the back.

I had on a light blue dress, again, that was skinny all the way through but looked like water flowing after the bottom of my hips. My hair had mermaid waves with half up.

“Gorgeous as usual.” Her dad grins and twirls us once we reach them. We both laugh as we go to our guys.

“Thanks.”

“Beautiful isn’t describing what you look like.” Josh whispers into my ear. I lean up with him and peck him on the cheek.

“You too.”

“I wouldn’t call myself beautiful.” He looks insulted and makes a puppy face.

“Well you are. Don’t doubt it!” I cheekily grin.

“Ready for pictures?” Bell interrupts us yet grins. We pull away from our embrace and grin.

“Sure.” 

“Ok then, start posing.” Her dad points towards us and holds up a Nikon.  We all get closer together and smile mechanically. Very generic. After the third picture of posing like that, Bell hit me in the butt with her own to get a reaction out of me before the camera clicked.

I squealed and jumped to Josh who grabbed me and that scared Ryan and surprised us all when her dad started laughing. “God, this is too funny! I love this one the best. Now funny ones.” I mock glare at Bell, who is making it really hard for her to be mad at .

“You. SCARED me!”

“I wanted a funny one!” she complains and sulks. I break out of my glare and grin.

“Well no need to hit me. it was quite scary.”

“What ever you say.” She grumbles and crosses her arms. Ryan untangles them and grabs her hands comforting.

“But for the record I will always love It.” she smiles at him mushily.

“Aw thanks.” And they lean into one another and kiss each other.

“Ugh.” I make a face and interrupt them. “Not here guys.” They pull away and she smirks.

“As if we don’t have to listen to you enough.”
