As well as planning a wedding, Brendon was recording a new album. It was called Pray for the Wicked. He also wanted to plan a tour for next year.
Louise was excited for all the good things that were to come.
Louise went to get the mail. She sifted through their letters and noticed a letter for Brendon. It was handwritten. The post mark was smudged. Louise went back into the house, and through to the studio. Brendon was busy laying some vocals down for a song called High Hopes.
He stopped when he saw Louise. She gave him the letter. He tossed it to one side and brought Louise into his arms.
"Wanna make out?" He asked her.
"Sure." She replied. The make out session turned into sex on the couch.
Afterwards, Louise went back into the house, to get showered and ready, to go wedding dress shopping with her girlfriends. Louise was sad her mother couldn't be here, but she had to work.

Grace honked the horn, to let Louise know she had arrived. Louise kissed Brendon goodbye and went to go dress shopping.

Brendon closed the front door and went to get a drink of orange juice. He was on a roll at the moment, with the music he was creating.
He had a melody in his head he just needed the right lyrics to go with it. He walked to the backyard and sat by the pool. Bogart and Penny Lane came and sat in the shade. It was an unseasonably hot day for late March, even by LA standards.
Brendon needed a break from writing and recording, for a bit. So he went back inside and changed onto swimming shorts
He ran from the patio doors and cannon balled into the pool shouting "WOAH!" as he did it. Brendon swam for about 20 minutes, then got dried off changed and went back in the studio, to try and get some lyrics together, to go with the melody.

Louise was at a bridal boutique, trying to decide on which shape was better for her. Louise was a curvy girl, with ample breasts and hips.
So her girlfriends were helping her out. She had got it down to 2 dresses. Louise went and tried the first one on.
Grace had a tear in her eye. "Let's see the second one." She said. Louise went back to the fitting room to try the other one on.

Out she came. Her friends audibly gasped. Louise looked at herself, and had tears in her eyes. "This is it. This is what I am going to marry Brendon in." she said.

A young girl, in her late teens, approached them.
"Ohhh you look so pretty." She said. "He's a lucky guy."
"You bet your ass he is!" Katie piped up. Everyone laughed.
"Thank you." Louise said to the young girl.
"You are welcome. What's your fiancé's name?"
"Brendon." Louise replied, smiling.
"When do you get married?"
"In the Fall."
"Congratulations." The girl said and walked away.
"Well, that was a little strange." Annie said, taking a small sip of champagne.
Louise just dismissed it and discussed whether to have a veil or tiara with her group of friends.  It was finally decided on a veil.

Grace dropped Louise off back home. Louise went through the front door and into the kitchen. It was quiet. She couldn't even hear the pets.
"Bren?" She called out. Nothing. 'He must be busy, working in the studio.' She thought to herself.
Louise went and changed into a swimming costume and went for a,dip in the pool. It was such a hot day. After a while Louise got out and sat on a pool lounger. She got her book out and put her ear buds in. She laid back as Meghan Trainor it was all about that bass.
Brendon came back through from the studio to get another drink. The dogs followed him through. The trotted out to the pool. Louise's foot was tapping away to her music. She was so engrossed in her book, she didn't notice the dogs had come to say hello. She jumped when Penny Lane got onto her lap.
"Hello baby girl." Louise said and petted her.
Brendon walked out to the pool. He kissed Louise.
"Did you get a dress sorted Lou?" He asked.
"I did, Bren." Louise replied. She had a lump in her throat as she thought about her dress.
"Yea, I think I am going to ask Spencer to be my best man." Brendon said. They were going for suit fittings next week.
"Oh,Bren, he will be thrilled."
Brendon rubbed his neck.
"What shall we do for dinner?"
"Not sure, babe." Louise replied. "We haven't got much in. We really need to go to the supermarket."
"How about takeout and we will go grocery shopping in the morning?" Brendon suggested.
"Sounds good to me." Louise said and got up to get a drink.
They had a lovely evening together, eating Chinese food and taking a bath together.
