"Clara Sleeping beauty wake up it's your day today, your wedding day," Jasmine said waking up by 6:00 AM
"Hmm, it's Saturday already?" Clara asked sleepy eyed
"Yeah, it is. I told you to go to bed early but you didn't listen you wanted to gist all night"
"Fine I am up"
"Come on, let's get you ready for the day. You take your bath and um we'll get you all prepped up, there is no time we are yet to do the makeup and your hair and everything."
"Okay"
With that, Clara raced into the bathroom to take her bath.

"Liam, Eric wakes up you two" Gabe yelled at the two sleepy heads before him. Last night they drank too much after he reminded them today was the wedding day, but they just won't listen.
They still wouldn't budge, Eric was holding on to Liam like he was his bride or something. I am sure he'll miss him so this was the only time he has to hold on to him like that. Sometimes they both act like kids and this baffles Gabe. So he had to be the adult one there.
"Eric... Liam... Wake the hell up we need to get ready it's your wedding day. Maybe I should marry Clara instead because you are not ready. How can a responsible man be sleeping away on his wedding day?"
"Just shut up, I am not fully sleeping just taking a nap," Liam said in denial. But his eyeballs betrayed him
"And now you are a liar too? I wonder what Clara saw in you" Gabe said rolling his eyes
"It's because I am a very handsome man and she is beautiful, so people like that are meant to be together," Liam said proudly
"As for you, what's your excuse for still sleeping?" Gabe tapped Eric harshly that he jumped up and said
"The wedding"
"Oh good heavens, what do I do with you two? Why do I always get to be the adult one? There is juice beside you to drink so you get sober. We have a lot to do, you better get inside the bathroom." Gabe said and left to look around at the reception party ground to make sure everything is set for later.
He may propose to Jasmine today, he has always felt drawn to her. His wolf self wants to claim her. Since his wolf keeps telling him "mate" she must have felt it too, he can't wait it out anymore. So he has to make his plans so it's at the reception party that he'll ask her out secretly, so as not to overshadow his best friend's day.
So he made a secret place for them both tonight.
After seeing that everywhere was fine for the day's event he went back only to find Eric still sleeping after he had drunk the juice.
This got him furious, doesn't he know he'll be the best man who will stand by the groom in the hall? He punched him this time and he yelled so loud that Liam who was in the bathroom ran out with a towel to know what had happened.
When he saw it was because he was still sleeping, he went back inside to prepare. It was his day after all, not Eric's.
He was really stressed out, he needed rest.
"Gabe it hurts"
"At least it brought you back to your senses, we can't be late, the wedding is starting by 10:30 and you are still in bed. You better go wash up"
"Why have you so worked up anyways? It's not your wedding besides the groom himself isn't ready"
"Because I have two jobs today. I will be escorting the bride to the aisle, she is my daughter today"
"Oh I forgot, fine I better go wash up with Liam then"
"Don't go in there to cause any harm to the groom"
"Why would I? I am a very nice and reasonable soul" Eric said and ran into the bathroom.
Immediately he got in, Liam yelled out loud.
He had changed the tap to a hot one. It was unexpected that was why Liam yelled.
Gabe shook his head. He is tired, those two want to stress him to the core just because he woke them up.
He went on to get his things ready. While Eric and Liam took their bath.

"Clara come on out, we don't have all day" Jasmine yelled at Clara who has been in the bathroom for close to an hour.
"Am almost done" Clara said
"Put on your bathrobe and Come on out Clara we have a lot to do jeez"
Just then Marisa knocked on the door
"Who is it?" Jasmine asked going towards the door
"It's my dear, I brought you some helpers," Marisa said
"Oh you are a lifesaver thank you so much, how did you know I needed help?" Jasmine said happily she really needed all the help she can get
"Because I know you, you always give your all into everything, and by the time you are through you'll be too stressed to notice your crush, and mate am not going to let that happen"
"Awwn thank you so much Marisa" she hugged the older woman with so much delight.
"So where is our bride?"
"She is still in the bathroom," Jasmine said just then Clara came out saying
"I am here Jasmine, chill out"
"Hmm took you long enough"
Sighting Marisa, she greeted and smiled at the older woman she had grown very fond of.
"Morning Clara" Marisa greeted in return
"So without wasting much time let's begin with the make-up," Jasmine said pushing Clara towards the dressing table
"Open your eyes, Clara," Jasmine said
"Okay I'm just a bit nervous," Clara said and opened her eyes "whoa my hair and the make-up all suits me," Clara said
"But of course, it's the almighty Jasmine at work here" and they all burst into laughter after the make-up session Jasmine said
"Okay Clara the helpers will help you with your dress I better get ready or I'd be late," Jasmine said and went on with her own make-up. The helpers help Clara into her dress "be careful we don't want any mistakes but hurry up or we might run late" Marisa ordered the helpers. Clara was all dressed up
"You look beautiful dear" Marisa complemented
"Thank you, Marisa" just then Jasmine walked up to those in her perfectly designed hair and with her perfect dress which made her look stunning
"Hmm you look almost as if you are the bride" Marisa teased
"Oh come on Marisa I mean look how stunning Clara is," Jasmine said
"Hmm now that I see you you remind me of your mother she always loved looking good and you seem to have inherited that trait," Marisa said
"Oh come on I can never compare to my mom she's all-time perfection," Jasmine said "oh my God we are almost late we have to hurry or we are going to be late," Jasmine said and everyone headed for the door.
