Caroline and Rick were sitting in the living room waiting for the girls to come. They were nervous and Josie noticed that.

''What is going on?''

''Your dad and I talked…and we decided to let you marry Penelope…''

Josie was surprised by that.

''After thinking for a moment, we realized we had no right to stop you from doing that. Both of us would give anything in the world for more time with Stefan and Joe…so it would be hypocritical to stop you from doing it. We just hope you really want to do that and that it's the right thing for you.''

After hearing Stefan's name and her mom's name Josie's eyes were wet. She was close to crying and she tried to prevent that.

''Thank you mom and dad…''

Alaric stood up and hugged her.

''I only want you to be happy… And if that wedding will make you happy, than let's do it. Emma is sending a special delivery to you tomorrow. It will arrive early. She had some witches coming here and they will bring it to you.''

''What is it?''

''Be patient my love… I think you will love it…''

''I spoke to Penelope. Her mom is asking if we could get married in their garden. She says it's beautiful place and Penelope loves it too.''

''Baby, it's your wedding… You can marry anywhere.''

''Thank you mom.''

"So tomorrow morning, we have to go and finish the paperwork…''

''Ok love … We'll do it.''

The rest of the evening was spent in wedding talk. Penelope's mom skyped them so, four of them talked wedding stuff… Penelope and Josie sat and let their mothers talk and they were just staring at one another and adding comments when needed. Rick was watching them and his heart was breaking… He knew it would brake some more tomorrow with the special delivery but he was doing this for Josie.

In the morning both sets of mothers and daughters went to finish the paperwork for the wedding. Josie and Caroline went to get Penelope her ring since Penelope hinted she will be doing the same with her mom. When Josie wanted to pick dresses, Caroline made million excuses why it's not a good idea at the moment. She promised that they would be going tomorrow.

Rick was home alone when one of Emma's friends arrived with the box.

''Thank you Anna.''

''You are welcome Dr. Saltzman.. Good luck…''

''I will need it.''

Penelope and her mom finished necessary paperwork and went shopping for her jumpsuit. She found one she loved and it looked as it was made for her. Lady from the shop got her white shoes too and a hair comb with tiny stones and pearls shaped as flowers. She put it in Penelope's side puff and it looked very elegant. She looked beautiful and her mother's eyes were tearful.

''Mom…''

''You are gorgeus.''

''Thank you.''

They got the suit for Penelope along with shoes and comb. She was ready to marry her Jojo. Picking a ring was a task she had no idea she would finis that fast. She saw a ring she fell in love right away. It was roes gold with three emerald cut diamonds. Diamond in the center was pink and the rest of the band was filled with small brilliants. It was very expensive, but Penelope's mother told her it's once in a life time ring. She picked the wedding band made of rose gold with small brilliants around it. It was breathtaking when she put it together on her finger. She could only imagine it on Josie's.

'' I love it.''

''Will she?''

''Yes, mom… She will really love it.''

''Good… Let's go home.''

Caroline wanted Josie's and Penelope's day to be perfect so she choose to take Josie to a very expensive jewelry shop. They came to one of the clearks and she offered them her help.

''What can I do for you ladies?''

Josie spoke first.

''I am looking for an engagement ring for my girlfriend.''

Shop assistant was surprised to hear that. She believed Josie was too young for it.

''Oh, and what did you have in mind?''

''White gold, emerald cut black diamond. And a wedding band to match…''

Both women were surprised how Josie knew what she wanted right away…

Josie found the ring she loved right away and the price was not bad at all. She could picture Penelope with that ring and she smiled thinking about it… Penelope…her soon to be wife.

Shop owner came to see if everything was ok with them and saw the rings Josie picked.

''You picked beautiful set.''

''It's for my girlfriend.''

''You are very young.''

''We are but…''

He smiled at her.

''Do you know what is the meaning behind black diamonds?''

''Wearing a black diamond ring symbolizes eternal commitment as well as strength and power.''

''Just like Penelope… Then it's the right fit.''

''Penelope is a beautiful name… My wife's name is Penelope too…''

''She must be special.''

''Oh, you have no idea.''

''Thank you for the story about the diamond.''

''Good luck and may you have nice and long marriage.''

Josie's face got serious again.

''That is what we wish for too.''

''Good luck.''

They went home and when they got in, huge box was on the lifing room table.

''Dad, what is this?''

''It's something I wanted you to have…''

Josie noticed how nervous he is.

''You had a very brief chance to meet your mother…. And…it didn't really end well…But I noticed how much you craved to know about her and how stupid I was for never speaking about her… Joe is a very painful topic for me… I loved her and lost her in such a painful way…that I believed not talking about her would ease the pain… But it never did… So… This is my way of letting you have he in your wedding… You are so much like her…that it's scary sometimes.''

''Dad?''

''Open the box baby…''

She opened the box and found Joe's wedding dress… Emma made sure to make bloodstain and knife hole disappear. Now Josie had her mother's dress in a perfect state.

''Dad, is this…?''

''Her dress…''

She took it and the weil and turned to Lizze.

''Will you help me try it on?''

''Ok…''

They went to the room and Josie started stripping.

''I tought you wanted you own dress…''

''I did… I had no idea dad will bring mom's dress…''

''Will you really use it?''

''I don't know Lizzie… I have to see how I look in it.''

Dress fit her like glove. She looked amazing in it. She walked in the living room and Rick broke down crying.

''Dad?''

''Your mother was a vision in it…but you… I wish she could see you Josie… She would be so proud of you love.''

Now Josie was crying too. She got into her dad's arms and cried too.

''I wish she was here too… I really grew to love her in those few hours we had… I finally met her and…we are so much alike.''

''Yes, you are pretty much like her…''

''I love it dad… Thank you for the dress..''

''It's yours love…''

Ge got his hand into his pocket and took out pair of pearl earrings.

''They belonged to my mother. She had them on her wedding day… So, I give them to you now for your wedding day.''

''I love them dad.''

She put them on and Rick took pictures of her. He sent them to Emma and she was really glad Josie loved the dress. She knew she bonded with Joe that day and she was happy for Josie to have part of her mom there too.

Their crying was interpted by Penelope's call.

''Hey Jojo…''

''Hey babe…''

''How are you?''

''I am in my dress..''

''You are?''

''Yes…. Dad got me mom's dress…''

''Caroline had beautiful dress…''

''She did… But he got me Joe's dress..''

Penelope didn't expect that. She was glad for Josie to have something of hers that day.

''Wow! I had no idea he had the dress…''

''Me neither… But it's amazing… It fits me like glove.''

''I can't wait to see you in it.''

''Me too…''

''I called for another reason…''

''Ok…''

''Hope and MG arrive tomorrow and my mom talked to your mom and we are expecting you tomorrow too… And we can get married day after tomorrow. David, my stepdad got entire garden ready.''

''I can't wait to see you P.''

''I miss you too love.''

''In two days I will be Mrs. Saltzman.''

''Yes, you will… Enjoy your last days as Park…''

Penelope smiled.

''See you not that soon…''

''Be patient Penny…''

''I wish it was already tomorrow.''

''I wish too.''
