Once at the wedding boutique Elena had chosen a purple colored chiffon floor length spaghetti strap dress with crisscross spaghetti straps on the back which complimented all four women making them look quite stunning . Over two hours later and dozens of dresses she finally walked out in the most beautiful dress that seemed to have been made just for her, hugging her in all the right places. It was slightly off the shoulder accented by lace making the dress appear strapless, from the bodice down to mid-thigh the dress was form fitting then only slightly flaired out accented by the beautiful lace and beadwork down to the floor where it was a few inches longer.
"Now that dress will definitely hold any man's attention" Freya said making them all laugh.
"Elena you are so beautiful in that dress" Caroline said with happy tears in her eyes.
"I have to agree with Caroline, you are stunning" Bonnie said with a smile.
"You will definitely hold Kol's attention and you are going to be a gorgeous bride" Rebekah said.
After the five women made their purchases they went out for a late lunch and talked about flowers and decorations. Once back in Mystic Falls Rebekah took Elena's wedding dress and hung it up on the closet door of her bedroom so it didn't get ruined and to prevent Kol from sneaking a peak at it.
"So did you ladies get your dresses?" Elijah asked Freya.
"Yes we did, and Elena is going to be stunning" she said grinning.
"Hopefully Kol will be able to contain himself when he see's her in it" Rebekah chimed in making Freya laugh thinking of their earlier conversation.
"What's so funny?" Nik asked as he walked over to pour himself a drink.
"Girl talk from earlier. Did you guys get fitted for your tuxs?" Rebekah asked.
"We did" Elijah said with a grin.
"What are you grinning for?" Freya asked looking between her two brothers.
"Guy talk from earlier" Nik said smirking.
"Touche Nik. I'm going to go talk a long hot bath, it's been a long day" Rebekah said leaving the room.
"So I take it your girls shopping trip for dresses was a success?" Nik asked Freya.
"That it was. How was yours?" she asked.
"It was good. The ladies couldn't keep their eyes off us" Nik said jokingly.
"Men. Good night you two" Freya called over her shoulder as she headed towards the hallway.
"Care to join me Elijah?" Nik asked handing his brother a bourbon.
Elena was relieved to be home and relieved dresses and tuxs were done, Rebekah along with Freya had graciously taken the responsibility of the catering while Caroline and Bonnie had taken care of decorations, and the cake had been chosen.
"Long day?" he asked from the kitchen.
"I never realized until today how exhausting shopping was" she said as she headed towards his voice.
"I wasn't sure if you would be hungry or not but I made spaghetti and the salad is in the fridge" Kol said as he pulled her into his arms.
"It sounds good" she said stifling a yawn.
"Sit and I'll bring everything over to the table" he said.
"I take your guys day went well?" she asked rolling some spaghetti noodles around the tines of her fork.
"It did. We didn't kill each other" he said with a smirk.
"Haha. Very funny" she said shaking her head with a smile.
"Did you find your dream dress?" Kol asked.
"I did. It only took a few hours and several dresses later" she said trying hard not to yawn again.
Kol noticed she was trying not to yawn, not wanting him to see how tired she really was. He knew if she sat there much longer she would face plant right into her spaghetti asleep. Even though in his mind that would be funny to see, he didn't think she would find the humor in it.
"Love you're exhausted. Head on up to bed and I will clean up" he said, getting up when she did as she nodded in agreement.
"I think I will and thank you for dinner" she said walking up to him and standing on tip toe to kiss him goodnight.
"Good night love. I'll be up after I clean up the kitchen" he said giving her one last kiss before she headed upstairs.
"Ok. I love you" she said right before she headed towards the stairs.
"I love you too" he called after her.
Kol went about putting the food away and cleaning the kitchen up before heading upstairs. Once he was done, he climbed the stairs and opened the bedroom door. Elena was sound asleep and had managed to kick the covers off, revealing her shapely legs. Once he undressed he climbed in beside her and pulled the covers up over both of them before pulling her close to him and drifting into sleep.
