We are literally 2 weeks away from the wedding, Danni and I have been running ourselves ragged trying to get everything done before the final rehearsal. Danni came rushing into the living room saying something, but I was so focused on what the wedding planner had shown me. Everything was perfect except one thing "Yea that's nice but Maria... do you notice how off the yellow tulips are? Yea... that's why I wanted orange tulips with a yellow base or streak" I looked up at Danni "what did you say babe" she looked at my face with concern, then looked down at the wedding planners' tablet and instantly knew why my face was scrunched up. She turned to Maria "Fix it. And fix it now" then she went back to addressing me. "Beautiful… I came over here to make sure you were good and to let you know everything is good to go for the venue and caterer. The officiant is also more than ready, and our attire is all squared away being dry cleaned and adjusted to fit us perfectly" she walked over to me and leaned down to kiss my forehead. She whispered in my ear "don't worry I got you babygirl" she pecked my cheek. "Thank you, baby. That's so much knocked off the plate I really appreciate you... more than you ever know probably l" we smiled at each other, and I went back to checking out the layout and decorations with Maria.
It was 4 o clock in the evening when I finally stopped everything to look at my watch. I needed to be at the cake tasting by 5:30pm. I rushed to gather my things in the office when I heard a knock at my door. "Hey Victoria… can we talk for a second" Alia asked as she walked towards the couch in my office. "Sure" I said as I came around my desk "is everything alright" I asked feeling slight tension. "Yes, everything is okay for the most part… I know this is silly but are you currently seeing someone? I ask because I am single and I need a good girls night, plus I hardly know anyone out here "I let out a sigh with a relaxed grin. "No, I'm engaged although I can still be your wingman" we both burst out laughing. I sat on the edge of my desk in front my office her "why'd you ask" tilting my head curiously. She tapped the side of her leg and glanced out the window for a moment "well… cause I'm tryna get back out there... and I think you would make a good wingwoman" she smiled at me and I smiled back. "Sure, girl I'm honored... Chase is also really good too. We should all go out that way we both can make sure the person is worth your time" I went back to gathering my things. The expression on her face made me feel as if she had more to say. "You sure that's all you had for me Alia" I grabbed my purse. She cleared her throat and stood "yea thank you so much... yea we should all definitely set this up soon" she asked if I needed any help then we both made our way to the exit. "No, I am good Alia thank you, enjoy the rest of your day" I got into my car and made my way to Gerard's, Danni had a text message me saying she was already there an waiting for me in the tasting room. I smiled and drove straight there; it took all of 15 minutes to get there an as soon as I opened my car door Danni extended her hand to help me out of the car. "Thank you, baby," I said as I got out then kissed her cheek. "Of course, beautiful… you look immaculate as always" Danni complimented me as she held me a little tighter kissing me back.
She cleared her throat then leaned into whisper in my ear "mmm … Woman ...if we don't go inside right now… you'll be folded up like a pretzel in the backseat of this truck" she winked an gripped my ass. "Come on" she said as she took my hand and walked us inside. When we walked to the tasting room, we were met by the owner with a model of what our four-tier cake would look like. They placed a plate of several different cake cubes flavors for us to taste and choose from. Danni unwrapped the two forks and lifted what smelled like a raspberry flavored cake cube into my mouth. "Mmmm… it's delicious but... I don't think it's us baby" I said in between chews. Danni smiled and tasted the next piece "hmmm this is very good baby, and you were definitely right about the first" I tasted the piece she fed me. "Mmm this is so good… it should be a tier for sure… mmm mix this with the strawberry short please actually" I blurted out then giggled when I saw Danni smiling at me. "Yes baby... you know that's our favorite so... done deal beautiful" Danni stood and shook the owners' hands and then they went off to discuss what I assumed was pricing and timeframe. I thanked the wife and walked back outside to wait in my car. I felt Danni's arms wrapped around me "uh uh sexy where you headed so quickly" she kissed the side of my neck and squeezed my body to hers. I melted into her happily "nowhere baby I was just waiting for you out here" I turned around to kiss her and she smiled at me. The love in her eyes made me tear up... what did I do to us? I rested my head on her chest and she held me for a moment.
"You okay baby" Danni asked me lifted my head to look her in the eyes. I smiled and took a deep breath in "yes baby… mmm you just smell so good…" she giggled and kissed my forehead. "I love you Danni" I held her a little tighter.
"I love you too Vicki… I love you too" she kissed my forehead again and rested her chin on my head.
