''Today is the big day then, are you feeling confident!'', Caleb was already on his first glass of wine and it wasn't even 8 in the morning yet. Wilson had put on a robe on since he had slept in his boxers the night before. He narrowed his eyes at his friend.

''Seriously, wine, this early, but yes, I'm feeling ok. Getting laid hasn't helped lately though'', Wilson sourly commented as he realized how he threw out Prim after her first orgasm not caring of sex anymore and just slept, in fact the next day he had thrown his common sense out the window and had called Meghan.

''It doesn't always, you need stability'', Caleb laughed, they both knew that wasn't happening any time soon.

''Is everything set up, did you at least go and check the arrangements before that wine'', Wilson asked cockily.

''Yes, everything seems fine, we just need to get you ready now'', Caleb batted his eye lashes.

Just as the two of them eyed the breakfast Ross had laid down, there was a ding on the elevator to his penthouse.

''Oh dear, you're getting married today and you're still in your robe, what sort of discipline is that'', Skylar scoffed at the two of them.

''Mother I thought we agreed upon meeting directly at the venue'', Wilson rolled his eyes.

''Wilson is that Chanel Grand Extrait I smell on you, please don't tell me you're having other women stay over'', she scowled at him and when he looked away, he knew he had it coming.

''Jesus Christ lola it's your wedding today and you're fooling around like a horny teenager with women, I'm sure none of them were Diana'', she scoffed.

''Not that she's a saint, but it's wasn't her mother'', Wilson looked unapologetic.

After Wilson's dad passed away, Wilson had moved out to the penthouse for an independent lifestyle, yet Skylar still considered him her Lola as she loved to call him.

''Lola what makes you think I would agree to that and Caleb is that healthy'', Skylar pointed at the wine glass in his hand.

''Well, it's anti-aging so..'', Skylar had always treated Caleb like her second son and with Susanne in his life, the two ladies spent most of the time together.

''Whatever, you two need to get ready and we have to leave too, and oh haven't talked to Diana too'', Skylar fidgeted with her clutch in search of her phone.

''Mother I think we should let Diana be'', Wilson was irritated.

Skylar looked confusingly at Wilson when Caleb broke the silence

''He means, she must already be stressed for her big day, now would we want more of that with her mom in law calling her'', Caleb winked and Skylar nodded in agreement.

''You're right, silly me. Fine you two get ready, I'll quickly leave to get dressed too'', Skylar turned away to the elevator.

''Are you crazy. Why bother your mother now'', Caleb put a mouthful of breakfast in his mouth as Wilson grabbed his coffee and turned to his study.

Meghan was already at the boutique today. It was a big day and everything had to be perfect. She steam ironed a few dresses herself as Steve entered her cabin.

''You're late sweet heart'', Meghan rolled her eyes as Steve quickly retrieved the iron from her.

''How about I say you're too early, let's just get done, I need to get ready too'', Steve mockingly twirled around.

It took the two of them another hour before they were ready to go.

''I think I should just check with Caleb and inform him about these dresses, don't you think'', Meghan quickly rang Caleb.

''Hi, Meghan here, I just called to say we'll be there at the venue in another hour or so, so if that's okay''

''Yes sure, we'll be there around that time too, seeya there'', Caleb confirmed.

''Who was that'', Wilson quickly asked because he knew.

''Oh, that was Meghan, she'll be getting there so confirming. You ready''

''Yeah I think so, Let's do this'', Wilson confidently moved towards the elevator.

''Caleb, sweetie where are you'', Susanne sighed.

''With Wilson of course, we are reaching the venue, you want me to pick you up love'', Caleb asked apologetically as he was to reach at the wedding with her, but he was stuck with Wilson.

''No sweet heart, I was just checking on you, Skylar is getting ready with me at our place so I'll get her at the venue'', Susanne cut the call.

The next few hours went in a buzz. The dresses were here, the groom and bride had made it to the venue to get ready and Steve was handing over the pieces to the bride maids and groom's men.

''Hi, you can get ready too if you want and thanks for making it in time'', Caleb quickly gave a warm hug to Meghan.

''Oh. I'll be making a detour, I'll get ready then. One look at Diana and I'll leave. Just in case she needs any adjustments'', Meghan turned around to find Wilson staring at her.

''Mr. Elias, everything ok'', Meghan snapped Wilson from his thoughts.

''Yes, be on time, we don't want our guests to be late'', Wilson left Meghan confused. They hadn't talked after yesterday, in fact to spare either of them from further awkwardness she only contacted Caleb when needed.

''How do I look'', Diana twirled in her gown, showing it off to Meghan and Steve.

''It's perfect, I'll zip you up. It looks as good as I imagined it would on you'', Meghan was impressed with her creation.

''Oh, it's your work, thank you for this, I loved it too. Wont' take much of your time now, you need to be getting ready too!'', Meghan nodded and left Diana to get ready.

''Shall we'', Steve collected his car from the valet as they made their way back home.

Meghan decided upon a teal gown. It was satin with thin straps on the shoulder and a slit as high as her upper thigh. The gown cinched at the waist and flowed artfully down with a little train. The back was artfully crisscrossed with satin laces and the neck was a deep V exposing her toned collar bones. She got into a robe and started working on her hair. Heating up a curling wand she opted for beach waves with her hair parted to one side giving her a very retro oomph. She picked on an eye palette with marine shades and sorted her make-up out with just a gloss on her lips to plump them up. She put on a diamond choker to complete her ensemble and put on silver stilettos with thin straps around the ankle, one last look in the mirror and she left her room with a clutch in hand.

Steve gasped as he saw Meghan and she giggled and gave him a twirl.

''50 shades of glamourous'', he hooted in excitement as he set his arm forward for Meghan to hold and they left her place for the event. It was show time!

 It was show time!
