Something New

Meghan's POV:
"We're back!" Calum called as he and the Mrs walked in.

"Welcome home!" I announced, conking up to hug them." How was the honeymoon?"

"Amazing. We stayed in Vegas for a weekend before we flew out to Barbados." Madi explained." It was wonderful."

"That sounds awesome." I replied." So I know you just got back and probably want to sleep but Izzy wants to take all of us dress shopping. It's one of the last things she has to do and is stressing her out."

"Okay, let me change and we'll go. Text them saying we will meet them there." Madi replied before grabbing her bags and running up the stairs.

"So, now that's it's just you and me. How are you feeling about having a kid?" I asked Calum as soon as she was out of sight.

"I'm excited, scared, worried; all the things one feels when their first child is on the way." Calum answered calmly." I know it seems like I would freak out over this but I'm surprisingly calm. I think it's very comforting knowing that we are both in this together and that we have all of your guys' support."

"That's a really good attitude." I commented." Good for you Cal."

She came hoping down the stairs and joined the conversation once more." Ready?" She asked. I nodded and we left.

"So do you know what Izzy is looking for?" Madi asked as she buckled her seatbelt. I pulled out of the driveway and headed to the mall.

"No but I can only assume she's looking for a color similar to the boy's tuxes, which are navy." I answered." I just can't believe you're all getting married."

"I know. Everything in our lives is happening so fast." Madi added.

"I mean, Bridget is the same age as me and her and Michael are getting married in a month. As happy for them as I am, it's gotten me thinking about my own relationship."

"Are you and Luke thinking about marriage?" Madi pondered.

"Not really, I don't think. I mean I'm still in high school and I have years of school ahead of me." I answered." I just don't want to be thirty and getting married because lord knows I won't have time or money to do it during school."

"I mean, if given the option would you consider marrying him now?" Madi asked.

"Maybe. Most of my wedding plans have been made since I was fourteen so a long engagement wouldn't be necessary." I replied." But I still feel very young and have no idea what lies ahead. I don't want that to be sidetracked by marriage."

"Whatever happens, I'm sure you'll be okay." Madi said as I pulled into the parking lot of the mall.

Outside the front doors were izzy and Bridget.

"You're home!" Bridget exclaimed as she ran to hug Madi. Izzy impatiently tapped her foot, anxious to get inside.

I couldn't blame here for being irrational because her wedding was coming up and there was still so much to be done.

"Okay we are looking for this dress-" Izzy said as she held up a picture of the dress from a catalog." Memorize it. When you find it, flag me down."

We headed inside and split up into four different ways. I couldn't find anything remotely close but a few minutes in, Bridget hollered all of us.

"Find your size and get into a fitting room." Izzy ordered." Madi what size are you?"

"I don't know. I'm going to need something larger." Madi answered. I think it just dawned on her that her body I changing and by wedding time she won't be as skinny as she is now.
