MirAndy has returned
The following is a glimpse into the HPOE universe. A very short conversation that our two favorite women had in my brain. You all will have to figure out the setting and such.
As always, I own nothing.
This is pretty mild. Maybe PG (PG-13) for content.
Oops, I made a double cut (hee) Just pick one or the other- both the same.
“Why Won’t you just let me do this for you?”
“Because it isn’t what I want.”
“Oh, don’t be silly. Of course you want this. Everyone wants this. This is every girl’s dream.”
“No, Miranda, it really isn’t. I never had the desire for an over priced, overstuffed, fancy princess wedding. I always figured I’d just elope. Or, if I had to have a ‘wedding’, it would be very small and intimate. Maybe just a J.P.”
"But, Andréa…”
“Miranda, why are you being so adamant about this? Is this really what you want? Do you honestly want another pomp and circumstance wedding with five hundred guests and all the paparazzi? I mean, I figured you’d be done with all that. You already had two.”
“That’s true. I will admit the first was the fairytale for me, but the second was for him, for the show.”
“So, why again? Why now?”
“Because… it was never with you.”
“Awww. Now see, you’ve done it again.”
“What?”
“You know I would do anything in my power to make you happy. If this really is what you want, we can do it. However, I really, really don’t want a huge display. I don’t want the chaos and exposure. What I want is a quiet, intimate occasion to commemorate the moment in my life when I officially promise myself to my life partner.”
“Well, since you put it that way…”
“Don’t pout. You can still dress me up. We can do the beautiful gowns and the professional photographs. We can even have a huge reception to celebrate so you can show me off. But, will you please refocus all this energy to something useful?”
“Like what?”
“Like our honeymoon.”
