Alex screeched to a stop and they all piled out of the car and ran in. They didn’t notice the people starring at them as they all ran down the hall into the room they were changing in. They all started striping as the door was shut, “How much time do we have?” Alex asked
Mack looked at her watch, “30 minutes.”
“We are never going to be ready.” B.J. said trying to zip up Leslie’s dress
“We can make it, we just need to be fast. Angel, why don’t you go get your mom and mine to help us.”
“Okay.” She said running out the door. She ran down the isle and to Mrs. Carter, “Mom, we need your help. We need Alex’s mom too.”
Mrs. Carter went to find Mrs. Paine, “The girls just got here and they need our help.” Both women followed Angel down the hall and into the room. Mack was piling B.J’s blond hair on top of her head and placing the flowers in it, “What can we do to help?” Mrs. Carter asked
“Leslie and Angel’s hair need to be done.” Mack answered She finished B.J.’s hair and started on her own.
“Where’s Alex?” Mrs. Paine asked
“I’m right here.” Alex said from behind them. They all turned and gasped as they say Alex.

“They are here.” A.J. said walking in and finding Nick pacing a hole into the ground.
“Everything ready?” Nick asked as he looked at his watch, it was 25 minutes t’ll show time
“I don’t know.” A.J. said, “But I’ll go check.” He left and walked thru the chapel nodding at the guests.
Made his way down the hall and knocked on the door, “Come in.” Alex said
A.J. opened the door and stopped. Alex and Mack were standing in front of the mirror, Mack was fixing Alex’s hair. They both looked heavenly, “Wow, you two look,” he stopped for a minute as if he was searching for a word, “simply beautiful.”
Alex grinned at him in the mirror, “You don’t look so bad yourself boy.”
Mack looked at A.J.’s reflection in the mirror. He looked very nice in the black tux, “I like the hair.” Mack said referring to the bleached ends.
“Thanks.” A.J. said still looking at her, the light blue dress set off her chestnut hair and made her eyes look greener.
It was 10 minutes until the wedding when they were all ready. They all sighed with relief. Then Mrs. Carter led Alex into an adjoining room to talk to her, “Alex, I am so happy that my son found you. No one can make him smile like you do……”
After several minutes both Mrs. Carter and Alex emerged. Mr. Paine was waiting for his daughter. Mrs. Carter and Mrs. Paine went and took their seats as Nick and the guys were taking their places at the altar. Mrs. Carter gave Nick a reassuring smile as Angel came walking down the isle
