Valentine's Day

LAST CHAPTER OF THIS BOOK GUYS!!! AHHHH I'M SO EXCITED!! ASDFGHJKL!

***

It's February 13th, aka Friday the 13th today. Tomorrow is mom's wedding. I'm not going to school today because it's the rehearsal. Everyone is coming down from Chicago. Grandma, Gramps,  and all the cousins. I have to get dressed in my white dress with hearts.

After I shower, I slip on a white strapless bra, and my dress over it. I struggle to zip up the back. I put on my red pumps. I'm like 5 inches taller with them.  I take my wet piled mess of hair, and put in a really intricate halfway up halfway down style heart thing. I apply red eyeshadow and mascara. I do a smal cateye with the eye liner. I spray on this chocolate perfume Mom bought for me to wear today and tomorrow. I have to share it with the girls, though.

I wobble out of my room on my heels. I go I to Ava and Chloe's room. Ava is dressed in her white dress with red lining and a pink belt. Chloe is in her red and white bridesmaid dress. I do their hair the same way as mine, and spray on the chocolate perfume. Chloe puts on her white heels and Ava slips on her pink flats. We walked out at the same time the boys did. Ethan was wearing a hot pink tux and Mason had on a white one. Both of their hair was slicked back. They were wearing white dress shoes and a hot pink bowtie for Mason, and a white one for Ethan. They both had axe cologne on.

"Wow boys, lookin' sharp!" Chloe yelled.

"Woot woo!" I whistled.

Ava went up to Ethan and fixed his bowtie.
"There. Better." She stated.

"Thanks sis," he said to Ava, winking.

We all walk downstairs. Mom's still not out, but Blake is. He's in a baby pink suit and his hair is slicked back. He has on a white tie and shoes. As soon as I'm about to say something, mom comes walking down. Her dress is stunning. Really tight at the top and a tutu type thing at the bottom. It flows out to wear it meets her vail, placed neatly atop her pinned up hair. She really caked on the makeup. Diamond earrings dangled from her ears.
"Woah." Whispers come from all of us. Blake stands jaw wide open.
"Well?" She asks.

"Ten outta ten."
"Woah."
"Amazing."
"The best."
"Better than I look."
All of us mumble.

"I guess I could marry you," Blake jokes.
"Haha." She laughs sarcastically. "Ready?" She asks.

All of us go outside where the limo is waiting. All of us pile in. There are cocktails and juice boxes, candy and orderves, and a special place for mom and Blake to sit (and kiss) (just kidding (hopefully)) Being in charge, I let all the kids have a pack of smarties, so they don't get themselves dirty. We finally arrive at the park place. There are tons of people. I scan the audience to find Eric. Instead, I find Iris.
I excuse myself from my family. I march up to her.

"Oh hi! What are you doing here?" She seems surprised.

"I'm the maid of honor." I say blankly.

"Oh! How do you know her?" She asked.

"I'm her daughter..." I reply.

"Oh!" She says.

"How do you know them?" I question.

"Oh, I'm Blake's niece."

"Well. Now we're cousins."

"Yay!" She squeals and gives me a hug.

"You're wrinkling my dress." I say flatly.

"Sorry!" She giggles.

"Gotta go." I spot Eric from across the park.
