"It's so pretty!" Chyler says, blushing over Melissa's engagement ring.

"I know. I love the diamond." Melissa says.
"When's the wedding?" Katie asks.
"I don't know. Soon, I hope." Melissa responds. Katie, Chyler, and Melissa had gone out for a girls lunch. "I don't want to wait for a whole year, you know?" Melissa states, playing with her ring.
"I totally get it. What kind of theme are you going for?" Katie asks.
"I'd like a vintage theme but I think Chris might lean towards a rustic theme. There might need to be some compromise there." Melissa says, taking a sip of her water.
"By compromise, you mean you're just going to go your way. Right?" Chyler asks.
"Maybe, depends on what he suggests. We could have a rustic vintage theme." Melissa says.
"So, are Amelia and Leah going to be the flower girls?" Katie asks.
"Well, duh. What else would they be?" Melissa responds.
...
Melissa walks into her house and quietly shuts the door noticing a sleeping Chris on the couch. She carefully walks over to him, planting a kiss on his head.
She walks out of the living room and starts her way to the play room. She walks down the stairs and looks around the corner.
"And then, the princess went all the way to her castle." Amelia says, holding a blonde Barbie doll. She walks over to the Barbie castle. Leah watches Amelia do this before looking up and seeing Melissa.
"Mommy!" The young girl yells. Leah jumps onto her feet and sprints to her mother. Amelia looks at what Leah is doing and follows her.
"Hey girls. How was your day with daddy?" Melissa asks, kneeling down to their height.
"It was good. Amy and I just stayed down here. Daddy said he had an important email to send out." Leah explains.
"Well, Dad's asleep on the couch." Melissa says. "Why don't we prank him?"
"Yes!" Amelia says. "What would we do though?"
"How about I run up and grab the whip cream, I'll spray some in our hands and we'll call him down. When he comes down the stairs, we'll hit him with the whip cream." Melissa suggests. The two girls nod eagerly. Melissa jobs up the stairs grabbing the whip cream out of the fridge and quickly goes back down. She squirts some in the of the girls' hands along with her own.
"Daddy! Help!" Amelia screams. She tried her best to sound scared so he'd come running. As they thought, foot steps pounded on the upper level before racing down the stairs.
"What's wro-" Chris was cut off by three hands slapping him in the face, spreading whip cream everywhere.
"What is happening?" He asks whipping whip cream off his eyes.
"We got you Daddy!" Leah says mid-laughter. Both of the girls fall to the ground due to their laughing. Chris smiles at the site before turning to his fiancé.
"Your idea?" He asks, continuing to wipe his face.
"Maybe." Melissa responds, smirking.
"It was a good one." Chris admits.
"Wasn't it? I thought it was one of my better ones." Melissa says, laughing slightly. Chris wipes whip cream off his face and smears it on Melissa's face. She gasps, surprised.
"Then why don't you enjoy it with me?" Chris says, sending the two girls into another laughing fit.
"You.." Melissa starts.
"Children in the room!" Chris yells.
"Butthole," Melissa finishes. "I hate you." Melissa says.
"You love me. Don't lie." Chris says, pulling her into a hug.
"Do I?" Melissa asks, sarcastically. Melissa and Chris chuckle before leading the girls upstairs to get ready for dinner.
