Chapter 4

Three weeks later, the day of Addison's & Tia's wedding

Margie

It was a beautiful morning as Margie rushed to the shop to get everything ready to do Addison's and Tia's hair and makeup for their big day. She had to make everything perfect for her best friends' second chance at love. After she was finished with the brides she'd do herself and the queen of crazy, Lynn.

Every one of the girls had a crazy work schedule, and it had taken them the last couple of days to get Addison's little house all ready for the wedding. She had decided that she didn't want a church wedding, but just a small gathering with her family and a couple of friends in the back yard of her and Win's new home.Margie, along with Lynn, took the next two days off from work to help get the finishing touches done. The house was sparkling clean and all the decorations and flowers were up and ready to go.

At first, this was supposed to be just Addison and Winston's wedding day. But after Tia found out that she was pregnant, her boyfriend, one of Win's best friends, proposed to her. That was when Margie came up with an amazingly romantic idea: a double wedding. Just like Elizabeth and Jane Bennett had in Pride & Prejudice!

Tia was thrilled over the idea, and Addison loved it as well. And Winston was so in love with Addison it wouldn't have mattered what the wedding looked like. She could've wanted everyone to dress in clown suits and have an Elvis impersonator come and marry them. Win would've ordered the costumes and made a call to Nashville to get Elvis, as long as it meant Addison was going to be his wife.

The day of the wedding Margie got up earlier than usual, and went to the salon to get everything ready for Addison, Tia, and Lynn to come and get their hair and makeup done. She had everything ready to go, and even got her strawberry blonde hair done; she fixed her eye shadow to make her seafoam-green eyes stand out, so she would have plenty of time to get the others ready for the big day.

Music was playing softly in the background as Margie sat in the chair, thinking of what she found out a couple of nights ago about who just might make an appearance today. With a sigh she sat back and thought about last night when she and Lynn showed up at Addison's house.

They were all laughing as they cleaned the house and reminisced about the days in Sherman Oaks, California, their foster mother Linda, and all the trouble they got into. Tia brought up an old story about the guys from the band, and it was hard to talk about at first for her. But then Lynn brought up the first time Nickels met Addison, and how she punched him in the face, knocking him to the ground. Lynn said it was right then she knew that Ad fit her kind of crazy, and they all would be best friends.

Two nights ago Lynn had called up with a ridiculous idea for a dye job for Ad and Tia's wedding: rainbow hair! Lynn's hair was the longest Margie had seen it in a long time, and Lynn said she liked the length but wanted to trim the bangs and have bright blue for the dominant color.

It was last Friday night, girls' night. So all the girls met up at Ad's place while Andy and Win went out to go have a beer and watch a game with a couple of friends they met at their new job. This was the time the girls got together and played their instruments for a couple of hours, but most of the time they wrote lyrics to songs that they'd been thinking of.

For a little extra money, Lynn would take the songs and sell them to a good friend of theirs, Samantha, who was an owner of a competing record label to Death Ever After; then they split the profit. It was a really great idea, and was putting some extra cash in their pockets. So instead of the normal night of music, Margie called to warn Ad what Lynn wanted her to do to her hair...and to get ready for a mess.

They were all in the kitchen and Lynn's head was in foil as Addison made virgin margaritas. Then Tia cleared her throat. "I need to get something out in the open before I go crazy," she told the group. The blender stopped and they all turned to look at Tia."Okay, so Rex called Andy the other day," she began, and Margie stood still, already knowing what was going to be said but she could do nothing about it. "And he wanted to know if it was okay if he came to the wedding along with South..."
