It was now Summer and everything was back to normal, or whatever normal is. Louise was back at work and Brendon was preparing for the launch of Pray for the Wicked. He had suit fittings for the wedding and album promotion. He also had to decide the first single. He wanted Louise's opinion.
"Hmmm, I would say either High Hopes or Say Amen."
"Thanks babe." Brendon said kissing her cheek.
Brendon agreed and pitched both songs to the label. High Hopes was the choice.
Louise needed to go back to the bridal shop, to have the dress altered. She was just about to get in her car, when her phone rang. It was the bridal shop.
"Hello Miss Wenno, its Angela, from the bridal shop."
"Ah yes, what can I do for you Angela?" Louisr asked.
"I am sorry to say but some stock was damaged, and your dress was completely destroyed."
"What?!" Louise felt tears stinging her eyes.
"I am really sorry, Miss Wenno. I can give you the number for another bridal shop, that carries a similar selection of the dress you wanted. " Louise was crying now.
"But, I get married in 3 months!" Louise exclaimed. She felt so frustrated, especially having to start the search all over again, to look for a dress. She hung the phone up and called Annie. Annie got straight on the phone to the other shop, to set up an appointment, explaining the urgency.
Louise walked back into the house, plopped down onto the couch, sighing. Brendon came through from the kitchen, coffee in hand. Louise explained to him what had happened.
"It will all be good, come our wedding day." Brendon said rubbing Louise's back. "As long as I get to marry you, we could be in garbage bags, for all I care." He kissed her forehead and hugged her.
"You are the best babe." Louise said to him. Annie called her back to say there was a cancellation and that an appointment had been set up for that afternoon. Louise's face lit up. She messaged the group chat and luckily they were available for that afternoon.After trying on many dresses, Louise finally found The One, again. They offered to do her alterations, immediately, given the urgency. Louise also chose a veil.
Louise and Grace got into Graces car. They sang out loud to Graces playlist.
"I feel like a weights been lifted." Louise said. "All thanks to Annie, for getting the appointment too."
"Yea, that girl performed a miracle, today." Grace agreed. Cuff it by Beyonce played as they pulled in Louise's driveway.
"Thanks Grace." Louise hopped out of the car and into the house. Brendon was out. He was busy working. The promotion had started for Pray for the Wicked. He was doing some interviews, in the city.
Louise made some dinner, fed the pets and had a bubble bath. It was late, so she went to bed. Louise had no idea what time Brendon got in. All she knew was that when she woke up, his arm was around her waist. Louise managed so slip out of bed. She was working today. Louise made some coffee and sat outside with the dogs. Afterwards Louise turned the local news channel on whilst she got ready.
"And last item, this morning. At the shop Beautifully Bridal, there was an attempted break in last night. The suspect was caught on cctv." The news anchor said.
Louise's head shot up towards the TV. That was where she had purchased her 2nd dress from. At that moment Brendon came out of the bedroom. He was in his boxer briefs and glasses. If Louise didn't have to go to work......
She gave Brendon a kiss and left the house.
Bremdon got himself a coffee and went for a shower. He had another busy day of promotion to do.
It was the end of a busy day and Louise was closing the shop up. She had just locked up and was about to leave, when she saw Meredith again. Meredith was stood down in the parking lot. Louise headed towards her car. Meredith approached her.
"Hey, Louise." She said.
"Oh, hi Meredith. How are you?"
"Oh I'm good. Listen I wanted to tell you to give Brendon back to me. I am carrying his baby."
"Huh?" Louise said, looking puzzled.
"I am having Brendons baby! Give him back!" Meredith yelled.
Louise shook her head and got in her car. She went on handsfree and tried to call Brendon. It went to voicemail. "Hi, its Brendon, you know what to do."
"Hi, Brendon, I just had something really weird happen outside of work in the parking lot. Call me back. Love you." Louise put her Spotify on and Death of a bachelor came on. It was her favourite Panic song. It made her melt. Louise's phone rang. It was Brendon. Louise told him what had happened.
Brendon was on his way home too.
Louise got home first, so she fed the pets and started dinner. Chicken breasts with salad. The front door opened as Louise put the chicken under the grill.
"Hi Lou." Brendon went over and kissed her on the cheek.
"Hi Bren." Louise said. She looked at him. "What do we do about Meredith?"
"I'm not sure. I will call my lawyer and get some legal advice." Brendon reassured. He hugged Louise.
They had dinner and spent the evening together, watching some tv and making love.
