"Alright Gino, we need to put that table there." Georgie says as she and Gino were the only ones preparing at the moment since her other employees were at lunch and Gino and Georgie could deal with the tables at least, and they both start to push it over to the side so the VIPs would be able to move around and enjoy themselves even if they weren't going to be able to.
Georgie had so much to do and knowing Gino he had to probably fix a few things after this since they had complaints about things breaking down and although Gino wasn't a repair guy he was pretty handy with tools.
"Well that's done. Can I help you with anything else my mady?" Gino asks as Georgie rolls her eyes at the nickname, Gino calls her as she tries and hide a blush. She was not used to being called a lady; she was always a tomboy just because she loved horses and didn't mind dirt didn't mean she wasn't still a lady; she was just different.
"I think we're good Gino, but I guess we'll see tonight my parents will be watching." Georgie stated before looking at Gino.
"And you swear you're going to keep Tessa's secret?" Georgie asks seriously as her friend nods his head.
"Your secret's safe with me. I would never go to Divine about anything in the first place all she does is scream at us employees she has everyone of them slightly afraid of her Gino jokes as Georgie sighs she knew it was true though.
"Could I pleasure you with another smoothie before all Heck breaks loose tonight, boss?" Gino asks as Georgie just looks around.
"Why not, this ballroom isn't going anywhere and as far as I know Tessa is helping her step family now she'll need me back to change her into Bella and I still need to find more contacts ." Georgie mutters thinking aloud as Gino chuckles. "What?" Georgie asks shoving him lightly.
"You are always thinking a mile a minute aren't ya?" Gino jokes as Georgie nods it truly was there was just so much to do before her parents got there tonight.
"Only when my over burdening parents are going to be here, and when I'm literally trying to keep Tessa secret" Georgie says with a huff as Gino nods, starting to walk towards the door.
"What color contacts do you need. I still have backups from when you and Lily broke them in highschool theater." Gino says as Georgie Georgie looks at him in shock.
"Oh you still have them because Lily still breaks them and goes to you doesn't she?" Georgie asks as Gino a gave a curt nod. "Um sorry about that but do you have the green hazelish ones
……...
Fifteen minutes later Tessa quickly goes to Georgie makeup trailer looking for her friend, but only finding Iris and Brook, and sighs Georgie was late again. She didn't get to finish her thought before hearing the voice of her stepmother and and quickly turns on her heels looking at Divine
"There you are!" Divine says and Tessa panics how was going to explain this especially since Iris was right there. Iris just looks in between them and starts to bark for Georgie, knowing she was good at being diplomatic.
"Divine! Hi." Tessa says trying not to act nervous but knowing she was not doing well as she was terribly intimidated by her stepmother.
"Oh, I know what you are doing." Divine says in one of her fake voices that Tessa hates and it makes her even more nervous where was Georgie when she needed her?
"You do?" Tessa asks her stepmother just nods and Tessa pets Iris carefully as Iris looks for Georgie Georgie wanted her owner's help desperately.
"Yes, these eyes see everything." Divine says and Tessa shrinks a bit Iris just walks in front of Tessa looking at Divine challengingly.
"They do?" Tessa gulps still looking down at Iris's golden tan fur.
"Oh, I know you have your own little fantasies about being up on stage, but lurking around the VIP area, Cinderella, is just sad and, frankly, a little creepy. I'm surprised that Bella's dog hasn't attacked you for trespassing. No more creepy." Divine says and Tessa let's out a silent breath she had been holding and looks at Iris her stepmother hadn't figured it out.
"Right, yeah, of course. I'm so sorry." Tessa stutters out, finally looking at Divine for a moment before looking back at Iris. Who simply growls. Tessa just knows the loyal pup is playing along.
"Oh, good. Now where are those gowns?"
-The gowns!
The gowns! Where are the gowns?
"Yes, I was just about to pick the gowns up, actually. You can come with, unless, of course, you don't want to be seen In, you know, the service area." Tessa says forcing sweetness into her voice as her stepmother walks away
"Have them in the suite in five minutes.
You need to help us get dressed." Divine says on her way out and Tessa just sighs looking at Iris."Yes, of course. Iris, that was way too close girl, way too close." Tessa mutters petting Iris as Georgie rushes in muttering something in afrikaans under her breath.
Sorry I'm late, I had to find more contacts speaking of you need to stop losing them we only have one more pair." Georgie says as Tessa nods
"That's okay, and I'll be more careful now. Please help me with this." Tessa says as Georgie nods, getting to work quickly petting Brook and Iris before doing so.
"Is this almost over?" Georgie asks as Tessa shook her head and before getting a word out Georgie lets out an annoyed groan
"No, now I need to be in three places at once." Tessa says as Georgie sighs, petting Brook again as she works her magic as quickly as possible.
"Ugh great, that makes two of us." Georgie says quickly as she finishes both girls just sigh it was too late to turn back now. And neither wanted to despite the fact they knew they would get into tons of trouble if they got found out. "Come on Tess, we can do this, what can one more place be." Georgie says as Tessa nod petting Iris Georgie was right they were so close just a few more days and as long as Georgie was still good she was too.
