Chapter 795 All-White Party

795 All-White Party

Lucy's bedroom buzzed with laughter and excitement as the ladies all prepared for the all-white themed bachelor/bachelorette party.

They had all chosen to dress up in Lucy's bedroom since that was where Sonia was dressing up away from Bryan and they wanted to be with the soon-to-be bride, and also because they wanted the makeup artists and hair stylists to attend to them in the same space.

The room was filled with the intoxicating scent of perfumes, the rustle of fabrics, and the clinking of accessories. The atmosphere crackled with anticipation.

"No one is permitted to look more beautiful than Miss almost-Mrs-Hank this weekend," Lucy warned the makeup artists and stylists, and everyone laughed.

"Almost-Mrs-Hank, huh? I like that. That's what y'all should call me for the rest of the evening. Also Lu, you should know that no one could look more beautiful than me even if y'all tried. And it's not just this weekend…."

"Please shut up, Almost-Mrs-Hank," Jade said and Sonia grinned.

"You're just jealous because I'm about to take your place in the Hank family," Sonia said and Jade rolled her eyes.

"Like you can. I will always be a Hank…."

"When you get married to Harry, you will be Mrs Jonas," Andy reminded her.

"Shouldn't that be IF? If she gets married to Harry," Candace corrected with a sweet smile directed at Jade and they all laughed, including Jade.

"I know you can't wait for me to be your twin sister-in-law. Don't worry, in less than a year it will happen," Jade promised and they laughed.

"Twin sister-in-law?" Andy asked and Jade nodded.

"You will be my sister-in-law, but Candace will be my twin sister-in-law since she is Harry's twin," Jade explained and they laughed.

"Does that even make sense grammatically?" Candace asked and Jade shrugged.

"It doesn't have to make sense grammatically as long as it makes sense to me. And back to the subject matter, Sony, I will always be an Hank…."

"God! Are we still on that? I moved on already. And it was meant to be a joke," Sonia said and Jade smirked.

"Better. So, in less than twenty-four hours, you're going to officially become a part of the Hank family," Jade said excitedly and Sonia giggled.

"Yeah. It's so wonderful to have you girls here. Two days ago I wasn't feeling so excited about this weekend, and now I just can't wait for it to happen. The only downside of it is that you girls will all leave after the wedding, and I have no idea when we will be together again this way," Sonia said, feeling a bit sad.

"Aww, don't worry. I will visit you as often as I can," Lucy promised.

"I will too," Jade assured her.

"We will stop by whenever we are in Ludus," Andy promised.

"And will we have sleepovers like this?" Sonia asked hopefully.

"Only if Matt is sleeping here," Candace said and Andy rolled her eyes.

"Clingy much?" Jade asked dryly since Candace always accused her of being clingy.

"No. It's not about being clingy. We dont live in the same city, so visiting Ludus means I want to see you all but spend what little time I can with Matt when he isn't out of town. I won't leave my boyfriend and come for a girls sleepover with ladies who see their men every day," Candace said and Andy pouted.

"But I don't see my man every day," she said dramatically and they all giggled.

"You don't even have a man and you don't count since I see you every day," Candace said and she scowled.

"Wait until I get a man, and then I'm going to oppress the hell out of you all for all you've been doing to me," Andy promised.

"If we keep talking, they are never going to be able to finish the makeup," Lucy admonished everyone since they kept interrupting the makeup artists each time they talked.

"You sound like some class captain," Jade said with an eye roll.

"She is my maid of honor, so she is the class captain. So, sit still," Sonia said firmly.

"You are the one who has been doing most of the…."

"Shut up," Lucy and Candace said in unison and Jade glared at them.

"I don't like how you all keep asking me to shut up," Jade said in annoyance.

"Apart from the fact that you're the youngest amongst us, you also are the one who keeps speaking when you shouldn't. And yes, I know I'm still talking so I will shut up now," Sonia said, and Jade scowled as she clamped her mouth shut.

They all stayed silent for the next couple of minutes, to the relief of the makeup artists, and once they were done with their makeups and hair, they left the ladies to dress up with the promise of coming in time to prepare them for the wedding the next day.

"Now this is what I'm talking about. We all look beautiful," Sonia said, impressed by their appearance when they were all dressed.

Lucy, the fashionista of the group, wore an elegant jumpsuit designed with intricate lace. The daring plunge neckline of the jumpsuit was tied behind the neck in a halter style, adding sophistication and allure. And the beautiful waist tie of the jumpsuit ensured it was a flattering and customized fit, cinching the silhouette gracefully. The wide legs of the floor length pants had sultry splits up each side for a captivating sense of movement and style. She completed the look with silver stilettos that glinted like moonlight against the ivory fabric.

Sonia, the bride-to-be, was the only one allowed to wear a dress, so she donned a flowing white mini dress with delicate lace sleeves and a plunging neckline adorned by intricate lace. The dress accentuated her elegance and femininity, while a thin silver belt cinched at her waist added a hint of glamour. The dress, adorned with subtle sequins, shimmered as she twirled with infectious joy. Her heels were adorned with crystal embellishments that sparkled like stars.

The dress, adorned with subtle sequins, shimmered as she twirled with infectious joy. Her heels were adorned with crystal embellishments that sparkled like stars.

Jade opted for a chic white pantsuit, the wide-leg trousers flowing gracefully with every step. A lacy bralette peeked out from the tailored blazer, adding a dash of boldness to her ensemble. A silver statement necklace adorned her neck, catching the light with every movement.

Candace, opted for an off-shoulder jumpsuit that hugged her figure in all the right places with confidence. And the wide legs of the pant cascaded gracefully, giving an illusion of a flowing gown and adding a touch of allure. She paired it with strappy heels and accessorized with a playful flower crown.

Andy, the lone single lady the vivacious spirit of the group, chose a beyond sultry white long sleeved plunge bodysuit, and paired it with white high waist jean trousers. Her choice of a bold red lip added a pop of color to her pristine white outfit.

"Hold on, ladies. There's a little detail left," Lucy said with a grin as she opened the closet to take out the sashes she had prepared for each of them.

"What? We even have sashes?" Sonia asked with a happy laugh as Lucy brought out the bride to be sash and helped her wear it.

Lucy put on the maid of honor sash, Jade put on the sister-in-law to be sash, Candace and Andy put on the bridesmaid sash.

"And finally, we have to crown you," Lucy said as she stepped forward with a tiara for Sonia.

"Aww, I can't believe you found the time to put this together, Lu," Sonia said, feeling emotional.

"It's not every day my best girl gets married. I have to do it right," Lucy said as she placed the tiara on Sonia's head.

"Now you look like a Disney princess with your blonde hair and tiara," Candace said and Sonia giggled.

"I do, don't I?" Sonia said as she looked at herself in the mirror.

"Let's take a group picture before we go downstairs," Lucy suggested after they had all exchanged compliments.

"That's a good idea. But the guys are waiting…."

"Let them wait, Sony. Tonight is your night and the party won't start without you. We are the party," Jade said with a grin and they all laughed as they agreed with her.

They all gathered together to snap a few group photos to capture the pre-celebration excitement.

Each of them took personal photos, and each took a photo with Sonia and then just like that they all ended up spending over thirty minutes snapping photos. The room was a symphony of beauty and friendship, a testament to the bonds they shared.

After they were done, they stepped out of the room, entering the living area where the men awaited.

The moment the ladies stepped into the living room, the men who had been conversing all rose.

Since the women had decided on an all white party, the men had no choice but to be dressed in white.

Tom settled for a stylish white linen button-down shirt paired with well-fitted white trousers and loafers, adding a touch of sophistication.

Bryan donned a classic all-white tuxedo, complete with a white silk bowtie, exuding elegance for his special celebration.

Harry opted for a crisp, tailored white suit with a black silk lapel, paired with a white dress shirt and a sleek black tie.

Matt chose a more casual yet polished look, sporting white chinos paired with a tailored white dress shirt, rolled-up sleeves, and white sneakers for a laid-back vibe.

The men, suited up in crisp white attire, exuded charm and enthusiasm. The contrast of the ladies' all-white elegance against the men's sharp white shirts and tailored trousers created a visually stunning picture.

The men couldn't help but be captivated by the stunning elegance of their partners. The air was filled with admiration as each of the ladies stopped in front of their men with beaming and eager smiles as they waited to hear what their men had to say about their appearance.

Tom, mesmerized by Lucy's ethereal beauty, remarked, "Lucy, you look absolutely radiant and too beautiful to be true. It's as if you stepped out of a dream."

Lucy blushed, "Your dream, maybe. And you look too handsome for your own good," she said and Tom chuckled.

Away from them, Bryan couldn't take his eyes off Sonia, who looked effortlessly chic in her white ensemble. You are the most stunning bride-to-be, and I'm the luckiest guy to have you," he said with a smile.

Sonia grinned, "Yes, you are. And you better don't forget that. And you don't look so bad yourself, groom-to-be," she joked and he laughed as he took her hand and raised it to his lips.

"You look absolutely enchanting, goddess, and you just made white my favorite color," Harry said to Jade and she grinned at the look of awe in his eyes.

"If you look this awestruck now, how are you going to look when you see me in a wedding dress on our wedding day?" She asked with a wink and Harry chuckled.

"I just might burst into tears," Harry said and Jade giggled.

"Who is this absolutely gorgeous damsel?" Matt asked in utter admiration and Candace grinned.

"She is your girlfriend. You clean up nice," Candace said as she removed an imaginary flint from his shirt and Matt chuckled.

As the compliments flowed, Andy, stood back with a wide grin on her face as she looked at each of them.

Harry, being the caring big brother turned to Andy, "Andy, you look absolutely lovely," Harry said and Andy grinned.

"Thanks, Harry. Here I was thinking I wasn't going to get any compliment after all my effort to look this good," she said and Matt looked at her.

"I'm glad the invitation is limited to only a few of us, else it would have been hard to keep the guys away from you," Matt said and Andy laughed softly.

"I will appreciate it if you don't keep them away," she said with a wink that made everyone laugh.

"Can we leave now?" Bryan asked and they nodded.

"How are we going?" Andy asked, since she wasn't sure who she was going with seeing how they were all evenly paired and she seemed to be the odd one out.

"We came with our cars. You can join us," Matt said, holding out his spare arm to her since he was holding Candace with the other.

"Sorry, Matt, but family comes first. Andy, you're with Jade and me," Harry said and Candace raised a brow.

"I'm family too," she reminded Harry.

"You've had her to yourself all this while. Stick with your boyfriend. I'm responsible for Andy. Andy? Come with us," Harry said and Andy grinned as she went to take Harry's arm.

Jade winked at Andy. "Looks like you're stuck with us, Andy. Let's make it a memorable night!" Jade said excitedly, surprising Harry and the others who had expected her to complain about the intrusion.

Andy chuckled, feeling the warmth of friendship and familial protectiveness.

As they all stepped out of the house, the group radiated an aura of elegance and camaraderie, ready to embark on a night of celebration for Bryan and Sonia's impending journey into marriage.

"I'm so glad it finally stopped raining," Lucy said as Tom led her to the car.

"I have a white blazer inside the car. You can wear it when you start feeling cold," Tom said since her jumpsuit had no sleeves and the weather was a bit cold.

"Thanks. I was sort of worried about catching a cold. I didn't foresee the cold weather," she said and he nodded with understanding.

"I brought the blazer because of you, a gentleman has to make sure his lady is never cold. And don't worry. If the blazer doesn't do the job, I will. I can make you sweat really fast if we have a moment alone," he promised and Lucy giggled as they got into the car.

The moment Tom started the car, Lucy turned to him, "Lucas is here," Lucy said, wanting to see Tom's reaction.

"Really? When did he get in?" He asked innocently and Lucy giggled.

"I was going to forgive you for not telling me about it last night, but now you've made it impossible," Lucy said and Tom slapped his forehead.

"Shit! I thought you meant he is right here. I didn't know you meant Ludus…."

"Keep lying, Tom. You're increasing the list of your offenses," Lucy cut in.

"Alright, I'm going to shut up."

"Also you told Lucas all about Amy. Stuff I told you in confidence. Do you know how embarrassing it was? After I assured Amy that you would keep everything to yourself?" Lucy asked and Tom shook his head.

"I'm sorry. It wasn't intentional. And you didn't ask me not to tell Lucas. I remembered that he had been involved with Amy and her friend in the past so I didn't think it was meant to be a secret from him. I will apologize to Amy if you want me to," he said and she shook her head.

"No. You don't have to apologize to her, I already did. But I'm going to punish you myself," She said and Tom glanced at her.

"What's the punishment? I don't mind being chained or tied to the bed post and you having your way mercilessly with me. I know I deserve that. I've been a very bad boy," Tom drawled and Lucy laughed.

"Let's just focus tonight. Tomorrow we will decide on a suitable punishment after the wedding," Lucy said and Tom grinned.

"You realize I didn't mean to keep secrets from you about Lucas, right? I only did because it was meant to be a surprise," he said apologetically.

"Well, it was. I got to my apartment and saw Lucas…."

"What is it with you and ruining surprises?" Tom asked and she raised a brow.

"What do you mean?"

"I flew down to Heden to surprise you, and you chose that time to fly back to Ludus, and now it's Lucas whose surprise you ruined," Tom said and Lucy giggled.

"What you mean is that I love surprising my surprisers," she said with a wink and Tom chuckled, hoping inwardly that she wouldn't ruin his engagement surprise too.
