Knocking on the door to give everyone a warning that I’m coming in, I smile. Today’s the day.
“How you feeling big sister?” I ask Kristi.
She smiles brightly at me, she looks stunning, sitting in front of the mirror, with her friends Alix and Hayley doing her hair and makeup.
“I’m feeling amazing. I can’t believe I’m getting married today.”
I smile back at her. Kristi forgave me, and everyone else, for what we did to her. Although she forgave them more than she did me. Our relationship hasn’t been the same, she’s still a little standoffish toward me, but at least she doesn’t hate me anymore.
As Alix finishes shaving a star into the side of Kristi’s head, I look around the room and see my seven-month-old-nephew, Vincent, crawling around, chasing after Ava’s daughter, who is running around giggling, knowing she can move faster.
I wasn’t in the room with Kristi when she gave birth, but I sure could hear her screaming. I think I even learned a few new words that day.
Six weeks after he was born, Bryce finally proposed, well, more like told to by Kristi. He tried asking when she was pregnant but she said no, saying she would never be walking down the aisle to him while pregnant and that he was to wait until they got the all clear from the doctor after giving birth to do it. So the second she came home from the doctor, and said she was cleared for sex, he proposed right then and there. Dad and I had to quickly leave the house because they were getting raunchy right in front of us, as if they forgot we were there.
“Alrighty now, we’re done. Let’s get this dress on and get your ass down that aisle,” Alix shouts as she looks over her masterpiece.
Everyone cheers quickly and moves around the room to get in place. Ava and Alana go to the kids and pick them up, taking them out of the room, smiling as they pass by me.
Once the dress is on, I can’t help but cry. Kristi might not look like a traditional bride, more like a rockstar wearing a short white dress, but she looks stunning as hell.
“Let’s do this,” she whispers, giving me a hug.
