---------------------------------------------

I had just woken up when I got a phone call.
'Hello?' I said groggily
'Hi, it's Claire sorry to wake you.' Claire said with a quilty tone.
'It's fine what's wrong?' I questioned.
'I have an emergency!' She replied panicked.
'What is it?' I said sitting up straight.
'One of my bridesmaids can't make the wedding they had to pull out last minute!' She said in despair, I slouched realising it wasn't an top of the list important thing.
'What! Really?' I commented.
'Yeah and I was wondering if you'd be able to replace her?' She asked sweetly.
I was quite for a while deciding if I should or shouldn't, but seen as she was my friend and also employer I decided I'd do it for her.
'Yeah of course.'
'That's great! Could you come over in two hours so you can meet the bridesmaids and also learn the routine and who your parented with?' She asked.
'Yeah let me get breakfast and changed first and I'll be over straight away.' I replied sleepily.

I got changed into the first clothes in came I contact with. I included blue skinny jeans, a grey vest top and a Nike hoodie. I walked to the kitchen put my shoes on and grab something to eat.
I walked past Abigail and told that I was going out and I didn't know when is be back but I had my key.

I reached Claire's house which was beautiful, it was large but it wasn't too large where you'd feel alone even if you had other people with. I parked in a space near by and walked up to the her door and chapped.
The door opened and Claire greeted me with a large smile and gave me a hug.
'Oh thank god your here.'
'It's no problem.' I said honestly.
'Your a life saver. Come in and meet the others.'
We walked through to the living room and I was greeted by four bright smiles from very beautiful woman.
'Guys this is Brooke, wedding planner and new bridesmaid.' The woman said hi.
'Brooke these are my bridesmaids, Penny...' She had short blonde pixie cut hair and was average height with green eyes.
'Lydia...' Lydia was similar to Abigail with her strawberry blonde hair, green eyes but she was slightly taller.
'Allison...' She was tall, skinny and had shoulder length brunette hair and brown eyes.
'Emily...' Emily had dirty blonde hair which was just longer than her shoulders, blue eyes and was slightly heavier than rest of the girls, but was definitely one of the prettiest.
'Eva.' Eva had long hair which had been dyed a dark red almost purple look, and had green eyes which contrasted with her hair.
I said hi to them all but I never got time to talk properly as Claire started talking 50 miles per hour.
'So since Anna couldn't make it, I've gotten Brooke to take place, so we need to go over how the way it going to work, Eva is the maid of honour so she'll go first with Daniels brother, Sam, then it's you Brooke with Xavier...' I gave a nod of my head to show that I understood.
'Then it will be Allison with Steven, Lydia with Ethan and then Emily with Luca.' We all murmured our agreements.
'Okay so the dress fittings are Tuesday at 10:30, at the glass slipper please don't be late.'
The rest of the girls stood up and gave Claire a hug and a kiss on the check before leaving.
'So I heard that Xavier helped you yesterday?' Claire asked me as I was about to stand up.
'Yeah he helped me go to places and we had MacDonald's for lunch.' I replied
She had a smile on her face which wasn't leaving any time soon.
'Why are you wondering?' I asked confused.
'No reason, just he doesn't usually "hang out" with woman for as long as this.' She said.
'He only hanging out with me cause I'm planning our wedding, once it's down he won't be "hanging" with me anymore.' I said.
'See I don't know about that.' She said.
'What do you mean?' I questioned.
'He looks and acts differently around you. He never goes to MacDonald's with any one, he doesn't even take me.' She said trying to get her point across, but sounding sad at the same time.
'I'm sure its nothing...' I looked at my watch
'I better get going I have an appointment.' I said.
'Okay, see you in Tuesday.' She replied
'Yup, see you on Tuesday.' I replied as I walked towards my car.

Claire's p.o.v

'Im sure it's nothing.' Brooke said. If only you know Brooke about how he doesn't shut up about you and how he's always looking for a chance to talk to you.
'I better get going I have an appointment.' Brooke said.
'Okay, see you Tuesday.' I replied.
'Yup, see you Tuesday.' She replied as she walked towards her car.
