Earlier That day.

             "Should we wake her up?" Jazz whispered but it wasn't really a whisper because Hayley stirred.

"No need. Your loud mouth did the work for us" Shree retorted feeling irritated. She'd come here to catch a few minutes of sleep with Hayley but Jazz wouldn't shut up. All week she had been running around trying to make this wedding perfect. And as much as she was happy for her friend, she needed a fee hour's sleep.

"It's already time for her to wake up or she'll go to her wedding looking like a blotched cake. Hayley get up am done tiptoeing around you"

Hayley groaned pulling the covers over herself and turning away from Jazz. It was okay when she was pretending to whisper but now it felt like her mouth was loaded with loud speakers. "Go away"

"Nope. You haven't showered or had your makeup done or your hair. Oh my God your nails and eyebrows and...." a hand clamped over her mouth cutting her off.

"Breathe Jasmine." When she tried to talk into her hand Hayley raised an eyebrow as if to ask her if she was going to shut up and Jazz nodded. "Okay. Now care to tell me why you're all camping out in my bedroom?"

"Not camping. Waiting for you to wake up." Shree told her.

"Whatever happened to beauty sleep?"

"Don't know. Don't care." Jazz said getting up and pulling on her hand. "We've got massages first then mani-pedi. After that you're going to shower then we can start with your hair and makeup. Sounds good? Great let's get moving people" she didn't give them time say anything. They were out the door heading to a guest room where the masseurs were waiting for them. To Hayley it was still early. The wedding was scheduled to start at two in the afternoon and she didn't appreciate her friends waking her up at eight in the morning. Last night she'd spent half of it talking and making out with her fiancé even though tradition dictated that the groom shouldn't see the bride until the wedding.

Of course JR wasn't one to follow any rules so they spent the night trying to talk because he wouldn't let her finish a sentence without kissing her. He made promises and for the first time Hayley was tempted to believe him. He didn't say their marriage would be perfect. Only that when they fought or when things were rough, he would make sure to take all the blame and make it up to her. Even if it was her fault and not his. He was ready to try and make it work so why wouldn't she? Three hours later in the middle of a pedicure Alexis showed up in a cute pink robe. "Morning honey" Hayley called out.

"Morning mom. Why is life so hard?" she sighed taking a seat beside her and putting her hands and legs out.

"What is it now? I'm the one who should be saying that. Not you"

"I understand these things too. And JR is a big baby. You wouldn't believe how freaked out he is"

Hayley frowned. "Is that supposed to calm me down?"

"I'm not here to calm you down mom. I still need to get my hair done then put on my dress without ruining my hairstyle."

"You sound like a grown up"

"I am a grown up. Which color are we painting our nails?" She asked looking at Hayley's hands.

"I don't know. Pick one that matches your dress... Which reminds me. I haven't seen it yet"

"Oh mom you are going to die. It's really beautiful like a princess dress with all this soft material and layers. I can't wait for you to see it"

"You're happy then. Right?"
