Beautiful In His Sight (BXB)

Bet

***Dek's POV***

Cali went WILD.

Only a couple weeks after our engagement, our wedding was set up. Carefree, we relaxed while she took complete control.

What I hadn't expected was all the hooplah regarding dresses for the girls. The guys were easy. We just picked out some expensive ass pants and white button ups.

Oh, not the girls. We went from shop to shop earning glares from sales women who didn't appreciate our ladies particular requests.

I could care less what the shopkeepers thought of us. It was our damn wedding. Whatever the girls wanted, you can damn well believe we were going to find.

I won't lie. It exhausted us beyond belief to indulge in the numerous shopping trips. But, these are my ladies, my peeps. If they wanted to shine on my big day, by all means let's figure out what makes them feel stunning.

So, we window shop. We internet shop. We watch as they try on countless exquisite dresses. Not one made the smile light their faces.

Frustrated with the choices, I made a decision.

"We're going to Manhattan. If you can't find a dress at Kleinfield's, there is no hope." I announce out of exasperation.

Okay, I guess I should have expected the squeals, hugs, kisses and the girls jumping around like wind up toys.

"Today." I announce. "Let's go."

Elik gives me a knowing smile. Chance and Broady laugh as they walk off to get dressed.

Truth be told, the plane tickets were booked two weeks ago. I had a hunch the girls wanted something spectacular. I was more then willing to indulge.

<<<<<<<<<

Landing in New York, I felt the jet lag deep into my being.

My beautiful fiancée was already prepared. As we walked thru the airport, he procured a Red Bull. I smiled graciously as the satisfying sound of four tabs sounded they the air.

High on shopping, the girls refused the energy drinks. Knowing what today held, the four of us guys drank enthusiastically.

We make it just in time for our appointment. I mentally pat myself on the back for perfect planning.

The girls are whisked to the back of the dressing room. I sit beside Elik and he intertwines our fingers. Chance and Broady plop down in the chairs and wait.

"Anyone up for a bet?" Chance grins wickedly.

"What kind?" I ask leaning forward in full interest.

"How long we will be in these chairs." Chance grimaces with his offer.

"Three hours." Broady immediately puts his wage down.

"Four." Elik chuckles, he shakes his head at the absurdity.

"Five." Chance smirks and winks over at me.

"Is that your final answer?" I ask while holding back my smirk.

"Yep, solid as steel." Broady rubs his hands together quickly.

"Not only will we close this store down, they will have to extend hours to meet the girls wishes." I wink at Chance. He visually shudders over my wage.

"Deal." Chance agrees to the stupid bet.

"What's the bounty?" Broady questions, confidence rolling off of him in waves.
