Celise stood by a window, looking down at the garden below. She turned and looked at Mali, a look of sudden panic on her face. "Mali, how many people are going to be here?" she asked, frantic. "I'm not sure if I can do this with all these eyes watching us. I mean, how can I be calm like Strongheart when there are so many people here, people I've never met before..?"
She knew she was doing a private little freak out and this would most likely be construed as pre wedding jitters, but she was concerned for both her safety but more importantly, the safety of Strongheart.

"Celise, it's going to be fine. When you get down there your not going to notice anyone but Strongheart. Now come away from the window and let's finish getting you ready." Mali smiled as she watched Celise

"Fine, she says. So says the person who's waiting for Jules to finally pick a date for their wedding," she playfully teased, having known that Jules was getting ready to ask Mali - and about time to.
"So," she started to say before gasping for air when Mali pulled the stays a little too tight. "How do you think the boys are doing?"

Mali flushed at the mention of her marrying Jules, that didn't look like it was going to happen anytime soon. "To have a wedding date one must first be asked but enough about that, today is about you and your wedding."
"Sorry," she apologized when she pulled to tightly, "As for the boys probably the same thing we are, last minute preparations and dealing with a few jitters of their own."

"He'll ask. I none too pointedly hinted at it and he seemed to have gotten the point. I think I spotted him checking out the jeweler's..." Celise said, smiling. "I just hope Strongheart doesn't start to think twice about marrying me..."

Mali wasn't going to get her hopes up on that one, she loved him dearly not the chair he was so hung up on. Mali just hoped that eventually Jules would clue in that she loved him, the chair was part of him but it wasn't all of him. "Strongheart's not thinking twice about marrying you but more that you might be having second thoughts about marrying him."

"Why would I be having second thoughts?"

"Why indeed, I'll not give you the list until after you are safely married to Strongheart but I quote, I'm not sure if I can do this with all these eyes watching us" Mali said seeing no reason to give Celise more reasons to second guess her marriage.

"Oh, that," she said, her cheeks colored. "I'm just not used to being the center of this much attention."

"I know your not, but this is a big day for you, your supposed to be the center of attention." Mali grinned, she wasn't that fond of large crowds either but since all the attention was going to be focused the bride she was okay.

"I just hope I can handle this - it's a big step. I guess I haven't been sleeping well either - what with the fear of this being just a dream, or the fear of going to sleep and not waking up again."

"I can guarantee this isn't a dream and as for the sleep spell, the spell is broken all that's left in that story is to marry your Prince and live happily ever after. Which you will." Mali promised.

Celise nodded. "Well, let's get the veil on and then I can join Strongheart at the alter..." She took a deep breath - or tried to - and smiled at Mali. "So, how formal is he? I mean, is he in full princely attire?"

"I don't how he's dressed. The men are even more closed lipped then we were about your dress, I guess we are just going to have to wait and see." Mali admitted, she couldn't believe that she hadn't been able to get anything from them.

"Well, maybe we should head down there now," she said quietly, brushing a stray lock of hair off her face. "I want to get this thing over with..."
