Chapter 16: Bridesmaids and Best Men

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Wake up you lazy bum." Skyler is nudging me in the arm. I lay in the warm bed hugging a random

pillow. I jump straight up and look around for Zayn.

"He left ... I can't tell you why." She blurts, but I know Skyler. She can't keep a secret for no more than 10 minutes. I smirk, and she gives me that glare. 

"I have to take you somewhere" She says pulling me up from the bed. 

"Actually.." Irene and Dawn enter the room looking happy to see me.

"WE ALL have to take you somewhere" Irene smirks and pushes me into the bathroom.

"Now get ready and actually look presentable" Dawn says. 

I haven't seen Dawn in awhile. She's probably too busy guarding the castle and running errands for us. Gosh. I hate this royalty. I know we're all going to be best friends though. I feel it in my gut.

I realize what Dawn was talking about when I looked in the mirror. My hair was a mess and I looked tired as hell. I washed my face, brushed my teeth, and fixed my hair so that it was in a high, long cute ponytail. I fumbled for my eyeliner and put some light blush. 

I stumble out the bathroom door and Irene is already throwing random clothes at me. It was a white sweater that said "a La Mode" in cursive, a short black frilly skirt, and some silver flats. She had taste.

"They're YOUR clothes" She says as if she could read my mind. I roll my eyes and they push me out the door.

"What's the rush, Gosh" I groan.

"We don't want the boys knowing we're sneaking you out. They'd freak.." Skyler says as they drag me and run to the car. 

"Where are they right now?" I ask Skyler once again.  They all don't say anything until we enter her blue and black Bugatti. Her two favorite colors. 

"FRICK. The boys went out to get their tuxedos and items for the day you become princess. The princess wedding. You and Zayn. We're here to take you to get the dress and to get dresses for us... your...." She stops when she sees the surprised look on my face.

"Your BRIDESMAIDS" They all squeal at the same time.  Believe it or not, I started laughing.

"Your pack is full of celebrities if you didn't know. The whole village is crazy for you and Zayn. Especially the guys" Irene winks. 

"Have you met my brother?" I ask Irene as she begins to drive.

"You have a brother? What?!" She asks so surprised. Her blue hair fell down her back and her innocent gray eyes sparkled in the sunlight. 

"I can't wait till you meet him. I bet he's your mate." I tease her.

"Yeah. Whatever. I've been looking for my mate and there has been no luck." She growls.

I heard a ringing noise, and I looked around. It wasn't my phone.

"Shit ... Dawn could you answer it? I'm freaking driving." Skyler throws Dawn the phone. Sky only gets this way when she's busy and determined to do what she's supposed to. I guess she's excited about this bridesmaids routine. 

Dawn puts the phone on speaker and answers in her most elegant tone "Hello.. this is Dawn speaking" I almost burst out laughing. She's ridiculous. 

"Dawn? Where is Skyler?" I recognize Zayn's voice immediately. 

"She's driving. She's busy. What's up?" Dawn answers.

"DRIVING? Where are you guys going? I told you all to wait when we come back." He growls through the phone, and I could hear male voices in the background. It's probably the rest of the pack.

"Well, we need girl time. Sorry." Dawn growls back.

"You have me on speaker phone don't you?" Zayn says sort of in a whisper. The background noise stops. I give a glare to Skyler. They already know they're in big trouble for not telling me. Zayn always tells me things at the last minute. 

"Later." Dawn finally says before hanging up. Her ginger hair up in a bun. Her hazel eyes looking cool as ever. She chuckles and Skyler begins driving faster.

                                                                                           ---

She pulled into a private parking space and I looked out the window. It was a large building that had "Kingdom of Princesses". I stared in awe at how beautifully it was surrounded by nature. I stepped out and almost stumbled onto Dawn who was holding me carefully with an amused grin. 

"Woah." Is all I say before being dragged into the building.

I look around and I couldn't even say anything. On one side there were dresses for the bride and on the other side there were dresses for the bridesmaids. I looked to the top of the stairs and there was a section for bouquets. Changing rooms were on the far left of the room, and it looked like a modeling station. I chuckle. 

"Whyyy hellloooo" A guy walks down the stairs in a fashionably way. You could believe he was gay, but I don't even care.

"Hello, We're here fo--" Dawn gets cut off.

"I know child. I know. You must be the princess." He grabs my hand and kisses it. I blush.

"Welcome, welcome. You brought your lovely bridesmaids I see" He finishes and looks at all of us. We all chuckle, and he nods approvingly. 

"Very well then ladies, you are welcome to roam around. Zayn has stopped by and he said something about balling out. Whatever that is." He looks confused and walks away.

We all just end up laughing our assess off.

(FANCY by IGGY AZALEA STARTS PLAYING IN THE BACKGROUND)(Yes, I went there).

I run to the brides section and start looking through dresses. Skyler runs over to my side and begins helping me while Dawn and Irene looks for the bridesmaids section. 

"I'm SO FANCY. YOU ALREADY KNOWW. I'M IN THE FAST LANE" Me and Skyler start singing and laughing as she picks out a dress and points it at me. I shake my head in disgust. 

We pick out several dresses and run to the changing rooms.  I throw on the first dress and walk down the runaway like I own it. Ha. I pose at the end of it, and they shake their heads no.

I look down at the dress and realize I don't like it either. I run back and throw on the neck dress. I pose once again and almost stumble. Dawn ends up laughing.

"NOPPPEEEEEE" They scream at the same time. It was wayyyy too short. Skyler picked this one. I give her a death glare and she shrugs her shoulders.

I throw on the last one and look in the mirror. I like this one. I walk down and try to act sexy but end up laughing and almost falling off the runaway.

"Oh God." Irene says jumping up. "I love that dress." She says. The upper part down to my waist was skinny and it flowed out down to my legs. It was long in the back and got shorter as it went up. It had a pattern of silver flowers all over where it flowed down to my legs. I liked it. I nodded and they all chuckled. 

"We don't even have to try on ours. We chose the perfect ones." Skyler says jumping up and pulling the girls into the changing rooms. I wait patiently before they come out wearing red dresses. My favorite color. I almost cried. The upper part had no straps and flowed out  down to their knees. A white flower was pinned on the right side of the waist band.  They were beautiful. Skyler's dress went down to her ankles since she was the Maid Of Honor. 

"Oh!!" The same guy that helped us came running down with a bouquet in his hands. It was yellow, white, and pink roses with a ribbon surrounding it. It was amazing. 

"Zayn thought this would be a good match for you with the help of his mother." He smiles and hands me the bouquet.

"It's amazing. We already have the dresses and bouquet picked out now." I say.

"Great! I'll wrap all of it up for you." He says grabbing all the dress and walking away so jolly like.

I wonder what the guys are up to.

                                                                                ---

Zayn's P.O.V

Well I guess Destiny now knows what's going on. Shit. She's going to be mad at all of us when we get back. Especially me for not telling her anything and leaving her there without any notice.

We all pulled up our cars into the parking lot of a building that read "Lair of Kings". Such creative names these villages have. I don't know why they treat us with such royalty. It's too much, but good at the same time. 

I decided my best man should be Dylan. Destiny's brother. We've gotten so close since he joined the pack, and he's like a brother to me. He kept it a secret when I told him not to tell his sister that she was my mate. He didn't tell a single soul. I could trust him with anything. 

Even though he is my best man, I treat all my pack members as if they were brothers. They all mean so much to me, and I wouldn't trade them for the world. I drove with Dylan in the passengers seat, and Eric and Ethan in the back seat.  Slade rode in his car with Slade and Vlad.  We stepped out of the car and entered the building.

"Ahh, Prince Malik" An older woman with thick glasses walks up to us. She looks so classy and fashionably old. I think that sounds sort of offensive....Whatever.

"Hello." We all say at the same time.

There were tuxedos everywhere, ties on one side, shoes on the other, and Colon at the top of the stairs. I smirked and grinned.

"If there is anything you need please don't hesitate to reach me. I'll be at the counter when you are ready." She smiles very widely and walks away. 

"Well this is fancy" Ethan says before running into the tuxedo section with Eric.

"Buffoons" Vlad growls but ends up chuckling.

"We have to live this time up right now. The girls will destroy us later on anyway." Dylan says walking over to the tuxedos.

"I'm too sexy for this" I flip my hair and walk like a girl towards the tuxedos.

"Oh GOD." Dylan laughs.

"We all get to choose a tuxedo. But we have to try them to see which one we ALL like." Dylan says to each of us.

"Okay MOTHER" Eric and Ethan say at the same time.

"Shall we get this party started?" Vlad says before clicking a button on the touch screen which says "PLAY MUSIC" on it. 

We all run to the changing rooms after we chooses our tuxedos.

(UPTOWN FUNK by BRUNO MARS STARTS PLAYING IN THE BACKGROUND)(You know you want to dance)(Go look it up right now)

Eric, Ethan, and I start walking down the runaway with a swag walk that makes Dylan fall out of his chair. 

"I'm TOO HOT" I sing

"HOT DAMN" Eric and Ethan say at the same time.

"Call the police and the fireman I'm TOO HOT." I continue

"HOT DAMN" Vlad joins in.

They start dancing off the stage.

"DON'T BELIEVE ME JUST WATCH" Eric sings.

We go back and change. Dylan and Slade look disgusted at our tuxedos. They were mismatched. Red jacket and green pants. It was so funny to see their faces.

We all start dancing. Eric and Ethan start swaying from side to side with a nod of their head.

"Uptown funk you up, Uptown funk you up." Ethan sings off the stage. 

We all finally get up into the tuxedo I chose. It was all black but with a white shirt inside. It also had a polka dotted tie. Black tie and white polka dots. We looked amazing. We threw on our shades and walked slow and cool down the runaway. Two at a time. 

"Dance. Jump on it, If you sexy then flaunt it. If you freaky, then own it. Don't brag about come show me." I do jazz fingers and throw my hand up into the air.

"This is the one" Dylan says chuckling. 

We all danced off the stage and changed back into our regular clothes.

Vlad turns off the music, and we all hand our tuxedos and tie to the lady.  Slater walks down with 7 packages of colon for each pack member. 

"Dior Homme. Thought the ladies would like it" He sets the packages on the counter and we all chuckle. 

We grabbed all the bags and headed out the doors with our shades on. You would think we're in a movie.

"Zayn is so vain" Slater teases, and I roll my eyes scoffing.

                                                                                  ---

Destiny's P.O.V

We grab the bags and walk back to our cars throwing on our shades. Skyler drives really fast back the house and we end up talking about random things. 

When we get to the house, the boys pull up at the same time. Shit.

"Crap." Skyler says parking the car and getting out with some of the bags. 

I grab some along with Irene and Dawn. 

The boys get out of their cars with their shades on. Copy cats. 

Irene stops in midair. I look over at her and notice she's looking at my brother who took off his shades just to look at her closely. Oh God.

"I told you so" I nudge her arm and walk inside along with Skyler and Dawn. While Irene and Dylan stay behind to catch up on each other. 

"WE WERE GOING TO TELL YOU" The boys say at the same time.

I couldn't help but laugh this one off. I shook my head. "It's alright."

"Whaaaaaatttttt?" Zayn says in a minion voice looking confused as ever.
