Abigail measured Amy and wrote down the measurements and began sketching out the idea for her dress, from several angles. "Like this," she smiled, showing her the notebook.

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 1:21 am

She gasped, nodding. "Perfect."

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 1:33 am

She smiled. "How about dark green for the main color and... Either cream or white for the ruffles," she took out some fabric samples that she could choose from.

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 1:42 am

She nodded happily. "I'd like that."

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 1:45 am

Abigail smiled up at her. "I will get started right away. Once it is done, I will bring it for you to try on. You will be the most beautiful maiden there, milady," she promised.

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 1:55 am

"More beautiful than Ashley?" she asked.

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 1:59 am

"Have you seen her without makeup on? You will win on looks alone," Abigail laughed. "Ashley has nothing on you. You don't need makeup at all!"

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 2:01 am

She smiled. "I've never worn make up." she said softly.

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 2:04 am

"And you do not need to," Abigail smiled. "You are the beauty in this city, milady. Do not let anyone else tell you otherwise."

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 2:06 am

She smiled. "Thank you."

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 2:10 am

"You are most welcome," she smiled.

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 2:12 am

"When will you be back next?" she asked, putting her dress back on.

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 2:14 am

"It shouldn't take me any longer than two weeks to finish your dress," she said. "I will be back then," she smiled.

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 2:18 am

She nodded. "Alright. Thank you."

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 2:22 am

"thank you. You've given Andrew the courage and motivation to be the best Duke he can be to his people, instead of for his father. I know you two will do great things," she smiled.

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 2:25 am

She smiled. "I hope so."

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 2:28 am

"I know it," she smiled. "I will leave you to your day. I will see you in two weeks," she smiled and hugged her, feeling lucky to know this girl. She left in a hurry, chattering goodbyes as she walked out and went to her workshop.

Lilli smiled, finishing her dressing then going back down to do her job duties.

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 2:32 am

Two weeks later, Abigail showed up at the bar bright and early with an armful of...something. Something big and poofy.

"Oh, Ammmyyyy~" she called, practically bouncing with excitement.

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 2:34 am

Amy, looking tired at the hour opened the door. "Yes?" she asked, not really knowing who it was calling her.

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 2:39 am

Abigail grinned at her over the big bag of poofiness. "Guess what I haaaave~"

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 2:40 am

It took a moment for Lilli to register what the woman was saying and then she suddenly brightened. "It's finished?" she asked.

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 2:43 am

Abigail nodded excitedly. "Would you like to try it on?"

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 2:45 am

"Of course! Come in." she smiled, holding the door open for her.

Subject: Re: < Speak Now > Tue Jan 25, 2011 2:47 am

She smiled and went inside, excited for her to try on the masterpiece she'd finished just hours ago.
