Chapter 2 – The Wedding
For Kara and Barry, today was a very special day. Today was the day they were getting married. Ray was a minister so Barry and Kara had decided to ask him to wed them, he was at an absolute lost for words when they asked and he accepted right away.
Barry had asked Cisco to be the best man and Kara had asked Alex to be the maid of honor. Everyone was sitting and when the music started to play everyone stood up for the bride. Clark was walking Kara down the aisle and people were in awe at how beautiful the young Kryptonian looked in her wedding dress.
Barry was starting to tear up a bit because of how beautiful she looked and Oliver noticed from where he was. "Wow. Really Barry? Crying?" Oliver said under his breath and laurel hit his arm.
"Don't make fun of him. I think it's sweet." Laurel said.
Clark handed Kara off and she took her place. "Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to celebrate the joining of two people who are so clearly right for each other. If anyone has any reason why these two should not be wedded, keep your trap shut." Ray said with a smile on his face as people laughed.
"I have known Kara and Barry since they started college. If I remember correctly, Barry wouldn't pay any attention in my science class half the time. He would just sit there and stare at Kara and smile. Both Kara and Barry have been threw a tremendous deal, and both have come out stronger. As the saying that Kara is so fond of goes, stronger together. Now I have been informed that you two have written your own vows, which is great because that gives me less to do." Ray said and people laughed again.
"Kara" Ray said turning slightly to look at Kara.
"When I was 13, my world exploded on me. I was sent to live with the Danvers, and as you know, I had a bit of trouble trying to fit in and controlling my abilities. But after high school, I got a letter telling me about Young Justice and how they could help me control my abilities. On my first day there though, a clumsy brunette bumped into me and I immediately fell for you with one look into your eyes. You have changed my life and made me feel an emotion I hadn't ever felt before. Romantic love. Barry, I love you with all my heart." Kara said.
"Now, your vows Barry." Ray said as he turned to Barry.
"I have been struck by lightning twice in my life. The first time I was put into a coma for a few months and missed the summer of my sophomore year of high school. The second time was when I bumped into you at Young Justice. I wasn't a very popular kid in high school and immediately thought that you would think I was a loser after I ran into you. I remember looking up and being captivated by your beautiful blue eyes. And then you smiled at me and I knew I was falling for you and it was hopeless to even try to not fall. You were so kind to me and didn't treat me like an outsider. I fell for you fast and hard and I wouldn't change any part of my life because every decision I have made has led me to you. I will ove you until the end of time." Barry said.
"Now the rings." Ray said and Alex handed Kara Barry's wring and Cisco handed Barry Kara's ring. Kara and Barry put the rings on their ring fingers. "Do you, Bartholomew Henry Allen, Take Kara Zor-El to be your lawfully wedded wife, in sickness and in health, for better or for worse, to have and to hold, until death do you part?"
"I do" Barry said.
"And so you, Kara Zor-El, take Bartholomew Henry Allen, to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, for better or for worse, until death do you part?" Ray asked Kara.
"I do" Kara responded.
"Then by the powers invested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride." Ray said and Barry pulled Kara into a deep, passionate kiss. Everyone stood up and started to clap. The journey had been a long one for the two heroes, and they had finally made it. Now they started the journey of parenthood.
At the reception hall, Cisco, who was the DJ, said "If everyone would clear the dance floor, the bride and groom have their dance."
Kara was standing alone for a second when a song came on she didn't recognize came on. Barry walked on and put his hands on her hips and started to dance. Kara noticed that he had a mic on the side of his face.
"Can't say how the days will unfold, can't change what the future may hold. But I want you in it, every hour, every minute." Barry began to sing. "This world can race by far too fast, hard to see while it's all flying past. But it's clear now, when you're standing here now, I am meant to be where ever you are next to me."
Kara smiled and she put her forehead to his while he sang to her, savoring every moment of this.
"All I want to do, is come running home to you, come running home to you. And all my life I promise to, keep running home to you, keep running home to you. And I could see it right from the start, right from the start. That you would be my light in the dark, light in the dark. You gave me no other choice but to love you. All I want to do, is come running home to you, come running home to you. And all my life I promise to, keep running home to you, keep running home, home to you." Barry continued on singing.
Kara danced along, just gazing into his green eyes, just as he was gazing into her blue eyes.
"Those two are gonna last forever." Oliver said under his breath. He was happy for Barry and Kara.
"Can't say how the days will unfold, can't say what the future may hold. But I want you in it, every hour, every minute." Barry finished and Kara floated up and kissed him.
Cisco put on another song and people came onto the dance floor. "Who sings that song? I've never heard it before." Kara asked.
"I did." Barry responded and smiled at his wife's reaction.
"It's true, and I had to sit threw it for hours as he came up with the lyrics." Oliver said walking up.
"It was beautiful." Kara said turning back to Barry. "I didn't know you could sing so well."
"He could give you a run for your money." Alex said walking up and Barry raised an eyebrow. "Kara has the voice of an angel."
"I didn't know you could sing." Barry said looking at Kara.
"Yeah, I bet I'm better than you." Kara said in a challenging tone.
"I think not." Barry said while smiling.
Sometime had passed and Lois noticed Clark had a confused look on his face.
"Hey, Clark, are you ok?" Lois asked as she walked up to Clark.
"Yeah, just, there's one too many heart beats." Clark said and Lois immediately knew exactly who's that extra heartbeat he was hearing belonged to. Kara and Barry's unborn child.
Lois had this look on her face, and Clark knew he knew something. "Lois, whose heartbeat am I hearing?"
"This is a conversation for you and your cousin." Lois said.
Before Clark could say anything, Barry said "Could I have everyone's attention. Kara and I would like to announce something."
Everyone was silent and looked between the two and Kara finally said "I'm pregnant."
More congratulations were given to the young newlyweds. Clark had to take a seat. "Clark, you ok?" Kara asked as she walked over to her cousin.
Clark got up and hugged her. "Yeah, I guess I still see that thirteen year old girl I found in a pod and not the young woman you have become, that's all." Clark said as he wiped his eyes of a few tears.
"I knew it." Oliver said and some people looked at him funny. "What? I noticed Kara was acting funny, she wasn't showing up as Supergirl unless it was minor, and she was starting to show a little. I just had my suspicions." Oliver said putting is hands up defensively and Kara laughed.
"I'm happy for you two." Oliver said and Kara walked over to him with her arms opened wide. "No, I don't do hugs."
"Oh yes you do." Kara said as she hugged him. "I wasn't going to give you a choice anyway Ollie." And Oliver chuckled
