Best Friend Bucketlist

Chapter Fifty-Two

In just a few hours its the Grand Opening of Tiffany and I's bakery so right now we are making all the final adjustments and getting publicity out for it. Josh has been tweeting about, I've been emailing, Tiffany's been doing interviews, and Hunters been posting videos of the progress. Soph is currently at work and can't help and Kellan has a modeling gig. Soph and Kellan will be here for the opening though.

"The bakery looks amazing babe!" Josh says kissing my cheek. I smile. "Are you ready? A line is already forming outside. I guess the publicity worked!" Tiffany states. I smile again! I'm so excited for my bakery to be open. I hear the back door open and Soph and Kellan step in. "Wow, it looks amazing you guys!" Soph says hugging me. "Thanks!" I say to Soph. "Just 30 more minutes!" Tiffany says. I post a video to my Instagram, as does Tiffany. We sit around the bakery making sure everything is perfect. Just 10 more minutes until the bakery opens and at this point we are standing at the door watching the line grow larger. Tiffany and I can't stop smiling because this is what we have dreamed of since that first day of culinary school.

We have the door to the bakery blocked off. There is a giant purple ribbon right in front if the door and the camera crews from multiple tv stations are setting up the cameras. Tiffany and I are now standing outside the bakery holding industrial large scissors ready to cut the ribbon letting everyone who has waited in. "We are happy to say that we are now.... Open!" Tiffany and I say simultaneously, cutting the ribbon. We enter the bakery along with the staff we hired and the people begin to flood in. Once the line has calmed just about 3 hours after the grand opening we have sold over 1,000 pastries and received just as many compliments.

After one full day of the bakery being open we have sold 2,000 pastries way more than we ever thought we would sell. We close up shop and head home.

After I strip off my makeup and put on comfy pjs I crawl into bed beside Josh. "How does it feel for your bakery to be open?" Josh asks. "It feels amazing! I can't believe it actually happened, I've been dreaming of that moment since I was 13." I say. He smiles. "You know what else was great about today?" I ask. "What?" He says moving a piece of hair out of my eyes. "That you were there with me. That you were there to support me!" I say. He smiles. We sit silent for a while. My head against his chest listening to the steady beat of his heart. "I have a secret." He whispers. "What would that secret be?" I ask. "That I love you!" He says gazing into my eyes. I smile. "Can you keep that secret?" He asks. "I think I can!" I say. He smiles and leans his forehead against mine. "I have a secret too!" I whisper. "What would that be?" He asks still gazing into my eyes. "That I love you more!" I say. "Can you keep that secret?" I continue. At that we both smile. He doesn't answer just closes the gap between us.
