"Gervase?" Alexandra asked. She was still eating her apple. She entered the house without knocking, for she always did so when they were young. She walked into the house, it hasn't changed ever since she last came in. Which was when she was 19. She walked in disposed of the remnant of the apple, and walked inside. she sat on the rocking chair in the grand entrance and grabbed a book. 'Ah, Principa Angelica' she smiled. She opened the book and began to read.

Edward De la Spenser
Edward eenters the house laughing, and he sees the maiden he had seen before, "He m'lady, what may i do for you? Wait, haven't i seen you before? What are you doing here? Are you one of my cousin's girls? Wait, how did you get in here, first of all?" he asked her. "M'lady, just tell me what buisness you have here, or i will call the master of this house." he didn't wait, "Gervase! There's a pretty girl in here!" he nodded at the woman.
Gervase Knightley
"What? The only woman that can ever enter my house without being arrested, or hurt is... well, it can't be Alexandra for this wench is probably here for something stupid, or what-er, hey Alexandra." he said, and sighed. A blush of embaressment came upon his face, "Didn't expect to see you here." he scratched his head, "Edward this is Alexandra Amare, Alexandra this is Edward De La Spenser, my cousin." he punched Edward's arm, "So what are you doing here stray?" he came up to Alexandra and sat down on the couch next to the coffee table, and the rocking chair.
Edward sighed, "Love sick dog!" he laughed and went to the kitchen to grab some refreashments.

Alexandra giggled, "I am here, my dearest friend, because i want you to be in my wedding, to Ryan Fallstar." she smiled, "Also, I need to look through your wardrobe, Do you still have all those garments and accessories we bought from Italy, England, and around the region? The one's we bought when i turned 20. And father took me to go and visit you. Remember? Oh also your cousin is not as organized as you, he is actually more reckless, like your brother. I wonder where he is? Anyways, Do you still have the clothes?" she smiled. She put the book down, and took her friends hand in hers, she squeezed it, and gave him a reassuring smile. "Gervase, don't be sour, please? For me." she pleaded through her bright smile.

Gervase sighed, "Of coarse i have the gowns and whatnot, but Alexandra I love you." he paused,"Maybe you don't love me as well, but I will still love you, not as a lover, but as your friend." he lied about not loving her as a lover, he would still do so, but he wouldn't show it. He squeezed her hand, and came up to her, and gave her a long tight hug,"I will miss you surely, my bright sun."he kissed the top of her hand, and then changed the subject,"So shall we look at your gowns now, m'lady, let us make you look unbelievably beautiful for this wedding. But we should tell your father first, am i for naught? he grinned, then took her hand, to lead her upstairs to his room, where he kept all the gowns for the past months,"No matter, I guess you have to do that with Ryan, for i am not the one you are marrying." he said that wrong, but he let it pass for he meant it. He lead her to his room, where it was neatly organized as opposed to the room across where clothes and bed sheets were scattered,"Aye, that may be Edward's room." Gervase grinned, and brought her to the clothing room. A room as big as a village house, full of clothes, and accessories, and everything. There was a stage, and a chair. Ladies stood by. And there were mirrors everywhere. There was a couch in front of the stage. He sat there."Why don't you go in the fitting room, while these lovely woman choose clothes for you to wear." he smiledEdward climbed up the stairs to the room,"What in Damnation! I never knew your closet looked like that of a seamstress shop old man! Damn! wow. DO you have mens clothes here too?" he asked still holding a bottle of whiskey, and two mugs, in his hands. He set them down on the table, and gave Gervase one, then him. He took a drink, and whistled,"Are we to judge the beautiful Alexandra's dresses?"he asked,"Oh pardon me, i should not be flirting with the pretty woman in front of me for she is to be married, am i wrong? I don't think so. Anyways, let the show begin. he raised his glass, and sat next to Gervase, winking at him. And then turned his attention to Alexandra. Who was being sized.

Alexandra's mouth opened when she first entered the room,"Holy Jesus! Where? What? How? When? Why? Gervase!!! she was dumbstruck. "Oh my lord, this is beautiful, you built this place, for my clothes, where is God's name did you put yours? she asked wryly, almost fainting, she held onto her stomach with both arms,"Lord, What should i try on first."Like a ballerina, she gracefully and swiftly, moved to the center where the stage is. She took of her clothes, leaving only her shift, which thank god, because there were men there, was not see-through. She twirled for the seamstresses, and then was given a dress, then a maid went with her into the fitting room, to put on the dress. When she appeared, she was wearing a beautiful gown, that was light blue, it was cut to show her bare arms, and her back. It covered her chest. She gleamed. Her green eyes out shone the emeralds she was wearing. 'I wish i didn't make Ryan go away, so he could've looked at me now, but then again, it is bad for a man to see his bride's dress.' she thought and sighed. She twirled. But then had to stop so the maid, could untie her hair, her long, curly brown hair fell down and reached all the way down her butt. "Should i have my hair braided boys, or what? she looked to them. She laughed. then asked the maid, "Where is the veil?" The maid left to get a veil. She came back with a soft light blue veil, with a lily pin on it. It was perfect. But there were other dresses. But a last she also had to pick the slippers or heels for this dress and complete it. A blonde maid, came to her, with a pair of beautiful sky blue heels, "Gervase, Why give me emeralds, when i am to be wearing all blue?" she asked, Why not make me wear sapphires, or instead give me a green dress. Even if i hate the darn color, i want to look beautiful." she smiled.

"My lady Alexandra, you already look beautiful enough, you are fair, and kind, and one more thing you are a heiress. But your father is still young, so i don't see him dying anytime soon."he shrugged, and admired Alexandra through his mug of Whiskey. "If you were not only engaged, I would have lusted for you a couple of times, but i would soon get tired, for my lady, no offense but you are not my ideal. You are more of Gervase's and the man you are to marry." he grinned. And took another sip, "Oh lady Alexandra why don't you try that red one over there, that one looks magnificent." He looked between the dress and Alexandra. "Yup, it would suit your golden skin." he smiled. And raised his glass again, "What do you think Gervase?" he asked.Gervase was dumbstruck by how she looked in that blue dress. He gulped and said,"Let us...see." He pinched himself, and then turned to the red dress which was also magnificent, and well suited on her. Edward was correct. As she tried it on, Gervase nearly swooned.

Alexandra looked at herself in the mirror, and remembered fairly well of this dress,"This one is the dress we bought in France, tis' not Gervase?" she admired herself a little more. This one i am keeping the blue one, no i will not keep that for the wedding, but maybe for the evenings." she smiled, and twirled around,"Edward i love your tastes, maybe you can get something for my to be husband, don't get him anything red though. I want to be the only one wearing red.......supposedly." she shrugged and then a giggle came up. A pretty dress catch her eye,"What about that one." she asked the maid. The maid came with the light silver colored dress, and Alexandra took it. "Let me see this one." she gestured for the maid and made her way to the fitting room. When she came out she was covered in silver, and white. Which made her curves pop out, and her skin look a little darker. She actually shined. "Well?" she smiled.

"Our sweet Alexandra, we already gave our answers, you look stunning. White suits you as well, might as well keep that one too. Just in case, for that is a beautiful dress. Now what about that one."Edward asked, he pointed to the red haired woman holding a purple dress. " I know it looks depressing, but it is beautiful, try it on Alexandra."he encouraged.Gervase looked at Alexandra, "Fair but i prefer red, my vote is red."he smiled. "That is an interesting peice, aye wait a minute isn't that the dress i bought for Selene, when we were in travel, i asked you Alexandra if Selene will ever be good again, what should we get her, you said a dress, and you said that that one is perfect." he gleamed. "But since Selene isn't here, why don't you try it on. It doesn't look small on you, looks a little bit bigger. So it will fit." He smiled. A green dress catches Edward's eyes,"My my, that is a hearty dress." he pointed to the green one, "Try that one on next Alexandra." he told her, "Remember you asked for a green dress, there you have it."he smiled, and patted his thigh. He stood up to refill his drink.

 Edward's mouth dropped when she wore the purple, "Lady Alexandra, that does not suit you at all you look like a witch, please burn that dress." he stood up, and went to get more whiskey, he drank it all in one gulp, and then got another, "I wish my little sisters wheren't taken from me, that way i could have seen them dress for their wedding, but instead, i saw them dress for the nunnery. I curse the people who put them there." he drank another and sat back down, next to Gervase. HE wore a frown for a few minutes. Then Alexandra appeared in a green gown, "My favorite color suits you my lady, and beautiful bows. Ah, you are an emerald that was kissed by the sun.""I agree with this old fool," he punched Edward's arm. "You look terrible in that dark dress, and you look like an emerald, in the green dress. Gervase stood up and went to a room, he came out with a dress, "Try this on." he smiled, "It's one of my favorite's from when we were young Alexandra. You picked this yourself." he handed her the dress.

Alexandra tried on the dress, and when she came out, her legs were cold, "Gervase, Anyone can see the full length of my legs in this, well if they look closer. Anyways im so cold wearing this. But this is a pretty good evening gown, i will still take it." she giggled then twirled around, "It's fine, but i am not wearing this. Um, may i have a hair clip?" she asked the maids, and then she looked for another dress. She found a golden dress, and took it immediately. "Aye how about this one boys?" she asked as she steps out in a golden dress, with golden jewels, and golden flats. Her skin looked light compared to the gold. Her eyes changed gold, with hints of green and brown. She twirled, and a smile appeared on her lips. She even posed.

Edward looks at Alexandra as she wears the two golden dresses, "Both are beautiful, the last one out shines the first golden one. The first golden one is very tempting ALexandra, i would wear that another day, if i were a maiden." Edward laughs. "My vote is the last one." He stands up and says, "Gervase i think Alexandra is done, now, shall we pick ours, and make Alexandra swoon, at out good looks?" he laughed and went to the side of the fitting room, where the men's clothes are.
"I agree my votes are on the last one, and yes it is our turn Alexandra, but Edward i already picked ours, since, Alexandra prefers, red, white, gold, and the green dresses, we have to pick something that matches, How about a black or a gray tuxedo?" he asked Edward, amused.
"I am wearing gray, for black is not something i wear for it reminds me of...." he stopped and took a gray one, clearly not wanting to continue. "Is this one, for I like this gray tux, it makes me look like i own a lot of land. But i got to get rid of the coat it doesn't fit today's society." he laughs, Edward is always on track with fashion, and money.

As Alexandra watches the guys fight over what they are wearing, she laughs and shakes her head. She goes to the closet, and then to the fitting room but a dress catches her eyes, and she asks the maid to get and help her put it on. When she put it on she looked at the jewelry and picked which would look good with the dress, she choose the white gold roses as earrings, and then a silver locket. SHe would keep these, besides they are hers. She goes outside and twirls around for a minute or two. "So how does this look? she asked. [

Edward who was naturally good humored and responsive could not speak right now, he just opened his mouth in awe, till finally, "If i was the one you were marrying i would be the luckiest man in the world." he smiled, and then punched Gervase's, "How about you old boy, what do you think?"
GErvase was a loss for words, "Magnificent, hey Alexandra, why don't you take that to Ryan, that one, the golden one, the green one, and the white one, bring the red one too. If you like, or you can bring him here either way is fine. As long as he gets to see how magnificent you look." Gervase tought again, "Oh yes, grooms are not allowed to see their bride's dresses, oh well, then we will vote on it. i am personally caught between, the last golden one, the white one, and this rose of a dress." he laughed. "What about you Ed? WHich do you fancy?" he nudged his shoulder, then turned to Alexandra and motioned for her to turn around.
"What ever she chooses, i like all that she chose so far, the red one is what i love the most, but again, im not the woman, nor am i the man of this marriage so. Up to her completely. What tis' your choice Alexandra?" he asked, holding up his mug to her, then drinking it.
