Perfect

Chapter Thirty One

-AVA-

  "You're such a bitch." I spoke with annoyance as Jules smirkes mockingly, arms linked with mine as we walk down the lightened street towards the designer wedding shop on the other side of London. Of course. You wouldn't find Gaby getting a wedding dress where we live now, would you?

  "What?" She pretends she doesn't know what she did. "I'm sorry, but I just had to tell your step-father what a bitch your step-sister is by not inviting you."

  "I was bloody glad she didn't invite me, I don't want to sit through this!" I exclaim, stopping in the middle of the street to turn and look at her. "And you just did that for your own selfish reasons, admit it."

  "All right, you caught me," She puts her hands up in defense. "But you really wanted me to do this on my own? Sit in a closed off room with Gaby the super witch? Again, ON MY OWN!? I need my best mate there with me, who is not just my best mate but also my beautiful, amazing, loyal cousin?" 

  "All right, lay off the cheesiness already," I link arms with her again as we began walking down the street, Jules smirking in victory. "I'm only doing this for you though."

  "And hey, maybe we can look for wedding dresses for you as well."

  "You all need to shut up immediately." I glare at her. "Or you'll end up driving Alex away."

  "Hey, I'm surprised he hasn't legged it already."

  "That is like, so mean!"

  "You know what I mean! Hey, our family is mad!" She exclaims back in equal volume. "Admit it, you know it's true."

  "He hasn't met our entire family though, so that's the scary part that's to come I guess." I sigh, almost in defeat as I accepted what was to come next.

  "Looks like this is the shop," Jules looks up to the sign above. "Shocked, thought at the price range Gaby was looking at; I thought the shop would look like a palace or something."

  "Just go inside already." I smile in amusement as Jules makes her way in first, holding open the door for me. 

  "My sweet Lord," Jules whispers, glancing around all four walls that showcased just racks, and racks, and even more racks of designer wedding gowns that we could only imagine about. She gasps when looking at a price tag, turning to look back at me with a open mouth. "Have you seen the prices of these?!" She whispers over, descending into complete shock.

  "Hurry, we need to find where Gaby is and get this over with," I reply, grabbing hold of her hand and dragging her away from a Kate Middleton inspired wedding dress which she suddenly has hearts in her eyes for. "And don't go falling in love, Logan's not that loaded with cash."

  "Oh, I'm not even going to dignify that with a response," She replies smugly. "Only because we're spending the next two hours with Gaby, and that's enough torture for you."

  She cuts herself off as soon as we turn the corner and we are met with Gaby in a ridiculously huge wedding dress whilst she stands on a stand in front of a floor length mirror, and Sam and Nicole (her two awful best friends).

  "Urgh." Sam voices her opinion of our arrival in one sound, sipping on her champagne, making Jules roll her eyes as she now drags us over to the empty sofa, sitting us down.

  "Took you two long enough," Gaby steps down from the stand, walking over to us. Well... Waddling, almost. That dress is huge. "Taking advantage of the situation are you not? Considering that you weren't invited in the first place, and then turning up 20 minutes late."
