STARKID Senior Year

The Wedding Dresses Bachelor Party

"Lauren I'm a guy." Joey said into his phone. It was January third and finally the entire group was back in California and Lauren was working hard on putting to tether a wedding in 27 days.

"Joey please your like a brother to me. Your opinion matters to me like alot." Lauren begged into the phone.

"Lauren the bride takes the bridesmaids with her to go wedding dress shopping, not the groomsmen."

"Joey please, Brian, Dylan, and Walker agreed to come."

Joey groaned loudly in the phone, Lauren giggled because she knew she had won.

"Look this really nice place squeezed me in today at two. Just meet us at Darrens Parents house at one or one thirty-ish."

"Okay." Joey agreed.

Joey ended the conversation when Lauren started to go into detail about exactly what she wanted her dress to look like, he politely told her he had to go take a shower. And he did.

Joey bathed and dressed him self and when he was finished it was already 12:45. Joey ran down stairs and grabbed a pop tart out of the cabinet and left.

Joey reached Darrens Parents house at 1:15 and he was the last one to arrive. We walked inside and met everyone in the living room. Lauren had quite alot of people going with her. Meredith and Jaime, we're sitting on the couch beside Lauren talking to Julia who had flown down from Chicago to be here. Brian, Dylan, and Walker sat and stood around the room a bit nervous about doing dress shopping, and Darrens mother, Cerina, came in the room holding two drinks and gave one to Lauren and the other to Jaime.

"Joey it's about time you showed up." Walker called from the chair he was sitting in.

"Lauren told me 1:00 or 1:30. I didn't know everyone was already going to be here." Joey defended.

"Oh I'm so excited!" Cerina said to herself then left the room to go get her purse. Lauren clapped her hands together and stood up, she had a wide grin on her face.

"Lets go! Lets go! Lets go!" Lauren said rather loudly then practically ran out of the room. With the way she acted and looked you would have never known she was pregnant.

The girls rode in the car with Cerina and the guys rode in Dylan's car. The car ride was fairly short, the guys asked Joey about Michigan and how campus life was with out them. Joey admitted that he missed them but he was finding his way.

They pulled into the parking lot and everyone got out. Lauren was practically jumping around like a kid who was about to go into a toy store. Every one smiled at her, no one wanted to ruin this day for her. Joey read the sign hung above the door of the dress shop. Lambert's Wedding Dresses. Joey didn't pay attention to celebrities or where they got there wedding dresses, but he had heard his mom talk about this place before. When they walked in there was a wall lined with pictures of celebrities on there wedding day wearing a dress from this shop.

"Hi, welcome to Lambert's, I'm Carrie, i'll be your consultant today, you must be Lauren." A cheery blonde woman win a tight black skirt and a white blouse said walking up to the large group. "Wow this is a large group, and guys, we don't see that many come with a bride unless it's a father." Carrie said and motioned for the group to follow her. They walked into a large room with a sofa and some chairs for everyone to sit in. Everyone piled in and Lauren stood on a pedestal in front of everyone.

"So I am going to go pull some dresses, I understand that your wedding is fairly close?" Carrie asked, Lauren just nodded her head. "Alright then I am going to go pull so walk out dresses do you can leave with your dress today." She finished with a smile then walked off.

Lauren stood in front of the crowd of friends a little nervous, when her phone began to ring she practically jumped out of her skin. "Oh I'm going to take this, its Darren, hes at the final call back for glee, he probably just wants to give us an update." Lauren said then pulled out her phone and left the room.

The girls chatted silently about how they would help Lauren plan the wedding, and the guys looked very uncomfortable.

"Okay look I love Lauren, but our main job is to plan a killer bachelor party." Joe said out if no where. "So let's start."

"Seriously, that is what your thinking about!" Joey said turning to face Joe.

"Look, your best man, you should be planing the bachelor party all by your self. BUT being that I am a nice person I will help you." Joe said with a small chuckle.

"He got the part!" Lauren said running back into the there waiting room. "Darren got the part!" Lauren screamed.

The room went ecstatic. Congratulating Darren through the phone. Carrie walked back in the room and had no clue what was going on.

"I'm sorry am I interrupting something?"  She said timidly, as she walked up to the group.

"I love you, but I need to go baby." Lauren said then hung up the phone. "Um no, my fiance he just got the part, um he had an audition for a TV show and got the part." Lauren said happily.

"Well congratulations, are you ready to pick your dress?"

"Yes, oh my gosh yes."  Lauren said with a smile and happily followed Carrie out of the room.

"Yes or no to strip clubs?" Joe whispered to the other guys.

"Yes." Brian said.

"No." Joey corrected him. "Hes getting married, and Brian, you have a girlfriend, if i tell her what you just said she might bight your head off."

"Your bluffing." Brian said smugly.

Joey shrugged his shoulders and turned around. "Hey Meredith can I tell you what Brian just said."

Brian's face turned bright red. "Fine no." Brian muttered.

"He said that he loved you very much, and that he cant wait for you to do this one day." Joey finished with a smile.

"Oh Brian!" Meredith squealed as she ran over to him and wrapped her arms around his neck and gave him a small peck on the cheek. "I love you too." she said then walked back over to the girls.

"Fine no strip clubs." Joe whispered in defeat.
