My mother called all the bridesmaids to have lunch.
Anna, my sister
Alexa, my best friend
Maria, Lucas sister
"Hi!" I embrace Maria in a hug. "I'm Gianna."
"I've heard," she chuckles. "Nice to meet you."
We sit down and my mother starts on the wedding.
"Oh you guys will scream when you see the venue." She pulls up a picture of her phone, showing it off.
A picture of a huge church covers the screen. Rows and rows of white chairs crowd both sides of the walk way. Lavender accents, accent the room.
"The color theme is lavender purple," my mother announces like it's not obvious.
"So how are you and Luca?" Maria asks, changing the subject.
"Oh... Good," I blush remembering all of our embarrassing moments.
"He really is fun once you get to know him."
"He is so charming!" My mother gushed.
"That's Luca for you!" She giggled.
I zoned out for the rest of the lunch as Maria talked ab him as a baby.

We go shopping for their bridesmaids dresses after lunch.
"I really like this one!" Maria twirled around in a lavender dress. It had one strap that went across her shoulders with a silky bottom that flowed when you moved.
I think I was jealous of my own bridesmaid's dress.
"It's gorgeous!" Alexa squeals.
"I love it!" Anna agrees.
"I guess it's that one then," my mother tells the lady pointing at it.
-
"Hey Gianna, me, Luca and some friends are going to a new club. If you want to come?" Maria asked as we dropped her off at her house.
"Ummm. I don't know?" I think of an excuse but my mom nudges me, mouthing yes. "Sure. Why not?"
"Ok great!" She grinned.
Great.
-
My mother picked out a dress for me. Not gonna lie, I'm a little nervous. I've never been 'clubbing' and I don't know her friends. But my mom just goes along with it.
She leaves me a tight fitting navy blue dress, with laced straps, stopping just above the knee.
On the floor are some silver heels.
Oh come on!!!
We I head downstairs I see Maria waiting for me in the drive way. A limo sits behind her. She waves, and grins as if her grin could get any bigger.
"Have fun!" My mom practically shoves me towards the limo.
"Omg! I'm so excited! Your gonna love my friends!"
"Can't wait!" I lie.
Two girls sit at the front of the limo, texting. The look up at me as I get in.
"Hi, I'm Gianna," I wave.
"I'm Laura!" The blonde one says grabbing me in a hug.
"I'm Sofia," the brunette chuckles, also grabbing me in a hug.
Across from me sit a guy with blonde hair and brown eyes. I have to stop my self from drooling at how handsome he is. Luca sits next to him, and gazes at me until I make eye contact, breaking it.
I can't read him.
"I love your dress!" Sofia gushes.
"Oh. Thank you. I love yours too." Shes dressed in a silver tight fitting dress with skinny spaghetti straps, stopping just mid thigh.
Laura wears a white dress with a low v neck and long sleeves.
Maria wears a simple black dress, with straps falling off her shoulders.
The whole ride is just Laura and Sofia talking my ear off. When we get there I practically jump out of the car, eager to be anywhere but the car.
A big building sits in front of me. Colorful lights poor out the entrance. A huge line stands, waiting to get in but we just walk right past. A man opens the door for us and we walk into a dim bar with disco lights and spotlights shining everywhere. Music blares through speakers. Girls walk around in small dresses, swaying there hips.
