A couple weeks later the doorbell rang. Surprised, Jemma ran to answer it. They never had visitors.
She cautiously opened the door.
Outside was her cousin, Casey and... "Natalie?" Jemma asked in shock. Natalie Finn had been Jemma's next door neighbor when they were kids. Spunky and light-hearted, Natalie would take Jemma on adventures through the woods in her backyard. Jemma had admired her imagination and bravery. Natalie had a large treehouse that the two girls would often escape to. It was Jemma's safe haven. They would talk for hours, hold great feasts and fight off pirate invaders. Anything was possible back then. Then, one day Natalie moved away from Appaloosa Plains... Leaving Jemma all alone and the treehouse empty. Stunned, Jemma let them in.
"Sorry to drop in on you like this, but when I heard what happened, I had to make sure you were alright!" exclaimed a concerned Casey.
"So are you okay? Ugh, you can't be okay if you're living here! What a dump... and how can you leave your father like that? He's only trying to-"
Jemma had stopped listening.
"So Natalie," Jemma interrupted. "What are you doing back in town?"
"Well, I was visiting my grandmother and contacted Casey to try to get ahold of you. When she told me you had flown the coop, I wanted to come see how you were doing..." she said with a smile. Jemma never realized how much she had missed Natalie's kindness until now.
Casey cut in. " I'm sorry Jemma, I didn't mean to lecture you, but don't you think running off on your own was a tad bit impulsive? I mean... wait... what is THAT?!" she screamed, pointing at her finger.
"I um," Jemma blushed. "Sam proposed!"
Casey squealed with delight and started rambling about bridal showers, bridesmaids dresses, and cake.
"Congratulations!" Natalie chimed in sweetly.
The three chatted for a while then Jemma went downstairs with Natalie to help bring her bags in. She was moving into the hotel, just a few doors down from Jemma.
After they had finished unpacking, the girls took a rest outside. The air was warm and a gentle breeze brought the fragrance of the flowers with it. "It's like we're neighbors again," Jemma laughed. She took a deep breath. "I'm glad you're here." "Really?" Natalie beamed. "Oh good, for some reason I was scared you wouldn't be glad to see me. It's been a while." The two sat in silence for a moment. "I know. It's been too long. I don't know what happened. I guess... I'm not the best at keeping friendships," Jemma replied, a sadness coming over her. Natalie looked at her.
"Hey, it's no one's fault. It didn't help that I moved two hours away!" she said, trying to cheer her up. Jemma just stared at the ground.
Suddenly, Natalie put her arm around her. "Friendships never disappear. They might fade, but that bond is still there." "Your friends are always with you," she smiled.
Jemma rested her head on Natalie's shoulder. "I missed you."
They sat deep in conversation, catching each other up on the past 10 years. It wasn't everything, but it was a start.
"Jeez, I've been looking everywhere for you guys!" Casey announced, exiting the hotel lobby. "Are you ready to go?"
"Go where?" Jemma asked.
"Dress shopping, of course!" Casey shrieked ecstatically.
The girls went shopping downtown, but nothing seemed to catch Jemma's eye. She tried on some dresses, but some were too plain... And some were too... extravagant.
"I look like a cupcake," Jemma muttered to herself.
And then, she saw it. In the window of a small shop, she saw the dress that she would face her husband in for the first time.
