It's the best
feeling in the world
watching things finally
fall into place.

I stared at the woman opposite me in the full length mirror with wide, unblinking eyes. My lips parted in surprise as my eyes swept all over my reflection. I almost didn't recognize myself. The hairdresser and the make-up artist did a wonderful job.
Taking a deep long breath, I cast one more glance at my reflection and made my way out the door. When I emerged Claire was already waiting outside.
The moment I stepped out the door she looked up to me and smiled. A glint of tears flickered her eyes as she handed me a bouquet of fresh white roses.
"You looked breathtaking!" She exclaimed as her gaze swept from the beautiful white lace gown then up to my face.
"Thank you, Claire. You looked stunning too." I returned the compliment as my admiring gaze swept to the pink gown she wore.
