"Hello?" Pt. 2

December 30th 2016

"I can't believe that they forced us apart."

"It's tradition, Daniel. You're not supposed to see me before the wedding."

"But the wedding isn't until tomorrow."

"Yeah, but... look Emma and Charlotte said and at the moment, whatever they say, goes."

"I don't like that rule."

"Tough."

"Sophie?"

"Yes?"

"I can't wait to marry you."

"I can't wait to marry you either."

"You know, I could wake up Father McGuire and have him marry us right now."

"Sounds like a plan-"

"Excellent!"

"BUT! No."

"You mean, I've got to wait another... nineteen hours before I get to call your Mrs. Whitaker?"

"Afraid so, bucko."

"I don't like this."

"Neither do I, but this is how we planned it."

"Screw the plan!"

"Daniel, shut up. Patience is a virtue."

"I've run out of patience."

"You'll live."

"I don't think I will."

"You're going to have to, otherwise we won't be getting married."

"You're right, I'll live."

"Thought as much."

"It doesn't mean that I like it, though."

"I know."

"..."

"Go get some beauty sleep, Daniel."

"Yeah... I would say the same back t you, but you're beautiful enough."

"Are you sure about that?"

"Yes."

"Hold on, I'm sending you a sexy photo of myself."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Well, what do you think?"

"Simply stunning."

"Haha, smooth. I think I should head to bed early. I'm not sure if I'll be able to sleep tonight."

"Soph?"

"Yes, Daniel?"

"Thank you."

"For?"

"Coming into my life."

"Ditto, Whitaker."

"I love you."

"I love you, too."

"See you at the altar?"

"Most definitely. Three pm, sharp."

"You're not going to be fashionably late?"

"Are you kidding me? I want the rest of our lives to start as soon as possible."

"Wait, does that mean you want me to wake up Father McGuire after all?"

"Nice try. I'll see you tomorrow."

"Tomorrow can't come soon enough."
