~Jesselin~

Right when my eyes slid shut, someone pounded on my door. I let out a small scream and pulled the duvet over my face, curling into a ball.

"Jess, open the door," Marie sighed. I climbed out of bed, shaking from head to toe, and unlocked the door.

"Did you even sleep last night?" she asked me.

"Like three hours," I squeaked.

"Why?" Chloe asked. She had just come up the stairs.

"Paranoia," I yawned. "I need Monster." I pushed past them and headed downstairs and shocked to see so many people there.

"What the fuck?" I asked.

"Language," Laura scolded. "Nathan's here." I sighed and nodded, rubbing my eyes. I walked into the kitchen and grabbed a can of monster before being pulled out and sent upstairs to take a shower by Chloe. I yawned and walked back to my room, picking up a pair of sweatpants, a tank top and some fresh knickers before taking a shower to wake me up. When I finished ten minutes later, I got dressed quickly and slipped on a pair of knitted boots that I liked to call my "feet sweaters."

"You're not wearing those," Marie said when I reappeared downstairs.

"Why?" I asked, taking a sip of my energy drink.

"Because you look crazy. It's summer," she reminded me.

"Shut up," I snapped, "I'm gonna be in heels all day. I'll wear whatever shoes I want until then." Marie rolled her eyes and continued doing her make up while Hayley the dance instructor pulled me into a chair and started brushing and blowdrying my wet hair.

"What are you doing here?" I asked, stifling a yawn.

"I don't just teach dance you know," she answered, "I do hair and I'm a DJ. Your DJ for the night actually."

"Oh, cool," I mumbled sleepily, nodding off and she continued to do my hair. She took the monster from me and set it on the nearest table as she started putting curlers in my hair.

I got in a good twenty minute nap and got another half hour on when Chloe was doing my nails.

"Okay let's move!" Marie shouted. Suddenly I was being herded into a car with Marie, Chloe, Laura, and Nathan. I slept for another twenty five minutes on the drive to the wedding hall, which was nice, and then we arrived.

"Come on," Chloe said.

"Can't I just stay in the car?" I whined sleepily.

"No. Get out," Marie snapped. I sighed and was shoved out of the car and blocked from Matt's view as I was ushered into the bridal suite.

"Can I sleep some more?" I whined.

"No, you have to keep getting ready," Laura said, and I made a high pitched whining sound.

"Drink this," Chloe said, handing me a five hour energy shot.

"Fine," I sighed, downing the little bottle and grimacing at the nasty taste. Marie tossed me a bottle of water which I bounced around a little bit before I secured a grip on it, taking a swig to rid my mouth of the nasty liquid.

"Come on," Marie said, pulling me off the couch. "Get undressed."

"Um, can you guys like, turn or something?" I asked self consciously. Marie sighed as Laura set up a little screen so they couldn't see me. I quickly pulled off my extremely comfortable outfit and cleared my throat.

"Done," I whispered. Marie's hand appeared on the side of the screen with a giant bag. I took it from her and unzipped it, revealing my black wedding dress. I stepped into it and pulled it up, zipping up the zipper on the side.
