Skyes eyes narrow in confusion as Jax pulls up beside a large building. When she gets out of the car, she realizes they are in the parking lot of Atkins, the most exclusive department store in Port Charles. Whipping her head around, she stares at him, confusion in her eyes. He just chuckles lightly and takes her hand, leading her inside. As they step inside, a young woman hurries over to greet them.
"Good evening," she says, smiling. She turns to look at Jax. "Are you Mr. Jacks and Ms. Chandler-Quartermaine?" she asks. Jax nods and she smiles secretively. She nods her head at Jax and then turns to look at Skye. Jax lightly lets go of her hand as the woman smiles. "You ready?" she asks Skye.
"Ready for WHAT?" Skye responds. Jax nudges her in the side.
"Just go with her," he says, smiling proudly. Skye looks at him and notices his twinkling eyes. She shrugs and heads off with the woman. Meanwhile, Jax heads to a different part of the store. After carefully selecting what he needs, he heads to the cashier. Meanwhile, Skye is trailing after the woman, scanning the store. She looks up, puzzled, when they come to a stop in the ballgown section.
"Lets pick you out a dress," the consultant says, smiling at Skye.
"I dont understand," Skye says.
"Just do it," the woman says. Skye wanders through the department store and chooses several dresses to try. Heading for the dressing room, excitement surges through her. She spends a great deal of time picking the perfect gown, the consultant helping her. When she finally emerges, the consultant cant help but gasp at how perfect the dress fits. After the dress is chosen, Skye chooses shoes and jewelry and heads for the salon inside the store along with the consultant. As she sits in the chair, Skye cant stop smiling. The hairdresser gently pulls her hair up into an elegant french twist and then pulls out several light tendrils around her face. Curling them softly, the woman smiles at Skye. Next, Skye is taken to the makeup department, where a woman quickly does he rmakeup. Then she heads back for the dressing room to put on her gown. When she emerges, Jax is waiting for her. He feels faint when he sees how absolutely stunning she looks. He opens his mouth, then closes it again, simply staring. Skye is wearing a strapless, soft blue, silk gown that puffs out ever so slightly around the waist. The top is lined with small silver gemstones that match the sparkling diamond necklace around her neck and earrings dangling from her ears. The hemline of the dress flows out around her feet.
"Skye, you are absolutely the most gorgeous sight I have even seen" Jax says in awe. He takes her by the hand, presenting her with a bouquet of red roses. She cant help but notice the way his blue eyes gleam under the lights. She takes in his tux and the corsage he is slipping on her wrist.
"I love you so much," she says, squeezing his hand. He squeezes back and leads her outside.
