"Look this way at the mirror and then look at that mirror at the back there to see both the front view and back view of the dress. You look amazing in the dress, seriously. I suggest you put your hair up on the day," the manager advised.
I glanced at the mirror, and I was forced to admit that the dress made me look so stunning that I couldn’t believe that it was me. It felt like I was staring at someone else and that made me feel quite strange. Let’s see what Hayden has to say about this...
"Careful and watch your step. Kick before you walk, please. Kick..." the manger reminded me almost every step of the way as I made my way out of the dressing room back to the front of the boutique.
"Umm...what do you think?" I asked softly when I felt Hayden’s eyes on me.
I stood very nervously in front of him as his eyes appraised me and the dress that I had on. His lack of visible reaction was a little disappointing to me. The moment of the bride-to-be walking out in her wedding dress and the groom looking all flustered and shock at how wonderfully beautiful she looks wasn’t something that I had the privilege to experience.
I held my breath as I sucked in my tummy as if that alone would somehow make me look better in the dress.
Hayden’s eyes traveled slowly down my body before returning back up again to rest on my chest. He made a thoughtful face, and I could tell that the shop manager and the staffs were nervous as well.
"Looks ok. Better than I expected," Hayden finally commented with an approving nod of his head.
I breathed out the breath that I had been holding in relief. Forget all about the ’wow, you are so pretty’ moment that I often see on screen, it was a huge relief that he seemed fine with how the dress looked on me. The wedding was in a few days, and we didn’t exactly have the time to find a new dress or make major modifications to this one.
The look of extreme relief on the manager’s face told me the same story.
"Thank you, Hayden. I’m very happy that the dress looks fine..." I said in a whisper as I started to relax.
Getting away from him in case he has any funny ideas...what else...
"Umm..." I hesitated to tell him the truth.
Hayden gave me a funny look like he could read what I was thinking. He took a step towards me, and I immediately took a step back as my arms tightened protectively around my breasts. As if his suspicions were confirmed, Hayden started laughing a little at me before he started laughing harder and louder.
"I’m not going to do anything to you. Seriously, what do you see me as?" Hayden asked teasingly as he continued laughing.
He did take a step back away from me and that put me at ease somewhat. Of course, I liked having sex with Hayden but doing it in the boutique while trying on my wedding dress would be over the top.
"A horny monster...I guess..." I mumbled my reply softly to his question.
At first, I wasn’t sure if Hayden heard me but he must have had very good hearing because he started laughing again at my response to his question. Before I knew it, I was giggling along with him. The atmosphere in the boutique relaxed considerably and when Hayden recovered his composure again, he opened the bag that he had with him and took out a box.
I watched as Hayden fetched a large velvet box out of the bag before he started to open it.
"This was why I wanted everyone to leave for a moment," Hayden explained calmly.
I realized right away what was in the box and I found myself unconsciously praying that it wouldn’t’ turn out to be some fancy diamond and gem encrusted bra and matching thong. Thankfully, Hayden opened the box to reveal a very eye-catching set of diamond jewelry.
