Rain Rain - Part 3

Lexie stared at her reflection in the full-length mirror. While she wouldn't call the dress exactly her style, she was grateful that Jenny let her borrow it for the special occasion. She liked the dainty blue flowers and flowing sleeves.

"I think it's perfect," declared Brian's sister. "You look so pretty."

"I do?" asked Lexie bashfully, her cheeks blushing a light pink.

"Definitely. Looks better on you than it ever did on me. Lucky we're the same size."

Biting her lip, Lexie ran her hands across her waist. She silently wondered what Harry would think.

"What about your hair?" asked Jenny. "Were you planning on wearing it up or down?"

Lex grinned nervously. "I actually hadn't thought about it. This whole thing wasn't planned at all."

"Of course," Jenny smiled.

"I usually wear my hair down though," Lexie added, winding a strand around her finger. "What do you think?"

Jenny's smile widened. "I have a great idea."

Turning to her dresser, she opened the top drawer and pulled out a headband, bringing it to Lexie.

"What do you think of this?" she asked. The headband was simple, adorned with dainty flowers and leaves in gold metal.

"I love it!" exclaimed Lex.

With gentle ease, Jenny placed the headband on the center of Lexie's head, allowing her soft, delicate hair to fall around it.

"Yes," beamed Jenny. "Absolutely perfect."

A knock sounded on the door then, and Jenny walked across the room to open it.

"Harry, you can't see us yet," Lex heard Jenny say. "It's bad luck."

"I thought that was just the bride and groom," Harry chuckled from the doorway.

"Even so," Jenny whispered. "I wasn't quite finished."

"With what?"

It was then that Harry spotted Lexie across the room, her reflection in the mirror as she looked down at her hands.

"Oh!" he sounded, his eyes wide.

With a sigh, Jenny stepped back and allowed Harry to enter the room.

"Wow, Lex, you look amazing!" he announced.

"Thanks," she muttered, turning around to face him. Grabbing the sides of the dress, she felt herself blush again. "Jenny let me borrow it."

"It's lovely on you."

Lexie and Harry seemed to stare at each other for a few moments until the silence was broken by Jenny's voice.

"Shoes!" she squealed, nearly making Lexie jump. "What size shoes do you wear?"

"Um..." Lexie swallowed, "eight."

"Aw crap," Jenny scowled, snapping her hands on her waist. "I'm a nine. They'd be too big."

"It's okay."

"I bet Serena's your size," she added. "I'm not sure if she brought any other shoes with her, but I could ask."

"Really, it's okay," Lex chuckled. "You've done enough for me. Besides after the weather last night, I might be glad I'm in my sneakers."

"Oh that reminds me why I came up," said Harry. "Your mum needs you downstairs. Something about a broken table and angry caterers."

"Ugh," Jenny rolled her eyes.
