For Better Or Worse.

Chapter 13.

Erin's P.O.V

"I don't want to wear this dress Ma." I said to my mom groaning.

We were currently at the dress shop getting our dresses for my moms wedding. She had know idea how happy I was for her and my sisters. They were finally getting the life I always wanted them to have. Charles really is a great man and father. My sisters were head over heels happy with him and our new brothers. I just wish I could show her that I was ecstatic with everything.

"It looks beautiful on you. So what if it is pink, it's a light pink." Said my mom smiling at me through the mirror.

She knows I can't stand that revolting color. It's just not for me, like it's ugly. I've never in my life worn pink, I swear even when I was a baby I would throw or push anything pink away.

"Uugh! Mom! This is just like ewwwwwa. Ma for reals I'm not wearing this. I mean it." I said in a serious tone with my arms crossed my chest.

Aaliyah and Asia were currently cracking up laughing at me sitting on a couch in the dressing room. We were in one of the fanciest dress stores on town, Charles completely spoils my mom and sisters and they were loving it. He says he never imagined he would have daughters but now that he does were all his 'little princesses.' I on the other hand had two jobs and didn't like being spoiled. My mom raised me to be independent and that's the way I'm staying. I can't help but be this way, my stubborn streak came from somewhere and it was strong.

"We think you look like a princess Erin! Don't we Asia?" Said Aaliyah laughing.

"Of course she does! Like a fairy princess!" Asia said laughing.

"Both of you can go jump off a cliff!" I yelled. "Hell will freeze over before I wear this!" I yelled.

"Yeah sure it will. Just like hell froze over before you ever let a guy kiss you." Said my mom smiling.

I immediately blushed. "Ugh. Mom please, I don't wanna!" I said pouting.

"Unless you think you can find anything better that matches the theme then shush! You look beautiful and it's about me anyway not you." She explained.

"Alright I'm going to go look." I said.

The theme was like vintage, I think? Or maybe 30's? Anything creme' colored with lace was good enough for the theme.

I had been searching for an hour and couldn't find anything.

"Look just accept the fact that pink is the color and your wearing it." Aaliyah said sighing.

"Ugh. Fine. I mean I like the dress, I just wish the color was different, I mean can't I just wear slacks and a dress shirt?" I asked.

My mom gave me me the 'shut up and deal with it' glare.

"I mean omg this dress is lovely." I said almost robotic.

My sisters started laughing at me again but this time they both almost choked on whatever they were drinking.

"You should have seen the look on your face!" Yelled Asia.

"You looked so fake and sick!" Said Aaliyah.

We went to the front counter and bought the dresses. We got into my moms new care that Charles insist that she drive. It was the new 2014 Cadillac CTS, all black. He had great taste in cars, I give him that much credit.

My mom had vintaged styled lace wedding dress; she told me the theme.

Her back would be showing somewhat and it looked beautiful on her.
