"Wise men say only fools rush in, but I can't help falling in love with you…"

"Well, here we are. Can you believe it? Look at this place. It's beautiful!" Molly admired, looking around the beautifully decorated church. Molly really as having this big, white, dream wedding.

"You ready?" I asked, giddy with excitement.

"Yeah," Molly sighed, content. Her answer was full of such confidence that I knew without a doubt that she was ready. I was so happy that my best friends were getting their happy ending too… together. Had I ever imagined that they'd end up married? Honestly, no, but I was happy that they had come to this point. I had watched over the years, their love grow stronger and stronger. They made each other so happy.

"This is your big day, Molly. Geez, why is everyone getting married but me? I'm starting to think I should be getting married at some point," Sawyer said.

Molly chuckled, "There's no rush, Sawyer. Besides, you want to wait for someone that's worth it. Like Ethan." I smiled at Molly's giddiness in regards to Ethan. She really loved him.

"I know. I haven't found anyone that means as much to me as Ethan does to you or that Dean does to Meredith. Maybe I've been looking in the wrong place this whole time. Sioux Falls apparently knows how to bring up men," Sawyer joked.

I nodded, laughing a little, "You know, if Sam were here, I think he'd whisk you away off your feet and make you fall in love with him." It was a somber more nostalgic note but I couldn't help myself. I missed Sam so much and I could tell that Sawyer did too. We hadn't really brought him up since she arrived here and it had been boiling in the back of my mind for a while.

"I wish… I hope he's okay… wherever he is," Sawyer said.

"Me too," Molly agreed.

"Sorry guys. I'm being terribly depressing her. On a lighter note, why don't we get you ready for your wedding?" I asked to Molly.

Molly nodded, "Okay."

"Shall I stay? Would it be a sin if I can't help falling in love with you?"

The three of us left the huge, white church and went to the bridal room. I hung up Molly's dress while Sawyer set up the makeup. Molly sat down at the vanity table and left her hair in the ponytail she had it in. Molly began to do a little makeup but Sawyer took it away from her.

"Uh uh. It is your wedding day meaning we are doing your makeup and your hair," Sawyer demanded bossily.

"Yeah, just like my wedding!" I chimed in.

"Mer, I love you but… you doing hair and makeup?" Molly teased.

"Hey! I'm getting better at it, okay? And… you know… it'll be good practice when, and even if I have a daughter," I replied. Sawyer and Molly both gasped.

"Is there something you're not telling us, missy?" Molly asked.

"Yeah, anything you'd like to tell us, Mer," Sawyer added.

I chuckled, "No, I'm not pregnant… we're not even trying… but before we got married we had a conversation about kids and we both said that we might want to have a daughter at some point. But right now is probably not good. Dean and I are still seeing how well we do with Jude and-."

"Um, no, you two are amazing parents!" Molly interrupted.

"Thank you. I think we just want to give it a little time. We're still trying to figure out Jude. Hah, he's the terrible two phase of 'I want to do everything by myself'. Maybe in a year or two," I replied.

"Yeah, you two are amazing with Jude. I honestly wasn't quite sure how Dean would be as a dad but he really surprises me. No offense. It's just that he doesn't really seem like the fatherly type of guy," Sawyer said.

"No, I know what you're saying… but I knew he'd be great from the start. Dean puts on this tough guy façade but it's just how he was raised. Underneath it all he's really a family man," I said back. "But enough about me. It's Molly's wedding day so Molly, you should tell us some kind of romantic anecdote. I don't know! Whatever people do before weddings."

Molly chuckled, "Well… when I returned to Sioux Falls and we first saw each other again, I don't know… call me a hopeless romantic but I could just feel something there. We had never really looked at each other that way back in high school but, I don't know, I saw Ethan and it was like I was seeing him differently."

"I remember that. I was a little surprised but I could tell the both of you were flirting that day at the Falcon," I added.

"Man, I really do miss everything," Sawyer sighed.

"Maybe you should move back," Molly hinted.

Sawyer shrugged, "Maybe."

"Ooh, tell the story about how Ethan proposed. That's a good one," I encouraged.

"Okay. Um… well I was about to leave for fashion week and I felt terrible because it was our two year anniversary but there was no way that I could get out of the trip so I told Ethan that I was sorry and that we'd celebrate when I got back. I felt horrible and I asked him: I really hope you don't disown me and he just said to me: actually, I'd like to do the opposite. And then he got down on one knee and proposed," Molly replied.

"Molly, that's so romantic!" Sawyer squealed.

I laughed, "Hahha, Ethan had to practice on me like five billion times until I finally just said to him: look dude, you're going to find a right time the words will just come together. He was freaking out! Ahhh he was so afraid you'd say no.

"And what reason would I have to say now?" Molly reminded.

"Exactly," I said back.

The three of us got ready for the wedding and finally we were all done. Sawyer and I helped Molly into her dress and she looked beautiful. It was a strapless, sweetheart neckline, white dress that was floor length. Her hair was in pretty bun and all there was left was the veil. Molly put on the veil and then looked in the mirror.

"Oh my God, I'm getting married today," She said, as soon as she saw her reflection.

"It's a crazy feeling, isn't it?" I asked, happily.

Molly nodded, "It's amazing."

~3rd Person POV~

"Like a river flows surely to the sea, darling so it goes. Some things are meant to be…"

Dean and Ethan stood in the church, waiting for the wedding to start. Ethan was going to go up to the altar with his best man, and Dean would enter with Meredith.

"How're you feeling, dude?" Dean asked.

"Good… I'm supposed to feel good right?" Ethan asked back, straightening out his tie a little.

Dean chuckled, "Yeah, you're supposed to be feeling this way. Sam was surprised that I wasn't nervous on my wedding day either. You just know… you know?"

"Yeah, I do," Ethan replied.

"Well, congrats, man," Dean said, patting Ethan on the back. He left the church to enter with the rest of the wedding procession.

The sound of the wedding procession started and it was time for the wedding to start. The doors opened and the bridesmaids walked through. Molly's little cousin was the flower girl and she came in first. The little girl threw flower pedals down the aisle before the two took her seat. Next came Sawyer, then Molly's mother, then Andrea, followed by Meredith, who was holding Jude, the ring bearer and Dean, looking like the perfect happy family. Ethan looked at his mother and was relieved to see how happy she looked. She smiled at Ethan and mouthed, 'I love you'. Ethan smiled back and mouthed back 'you too'. Right after Meredith, was Molly, brought in by her father. Everyone stood up and she walked through the aisle and looked happy as ever.

"She looks beautiful," Dean said.

"I know," Ethan smiled. This was it.

~End 3rd Person POV~

"We have gathered here today to celebrate the union of Ethan Anderson Walsh and Molly Penelope Owens," the priest started. From across the altar, Dean smiled at me and I smiled back at him. Being the wedding made me think about our wedding. That had been an incredible day. The service went on and priest went through the whole routine of the wedding.

"Do you have the rings?" the priest asked.

"Yeah. Go ahead and give them the rings sweetie," I said to Jude.

"Okay, Mama," Jude replied, walking over the Ethan and giving him the rings.

"Thanks, little man," Ethan said back. Jude smiled and then returned to me.

"Ethan, take Molly's hand," the priest started. "Repeat after me."

"Do you Ethan Anderson Walsh, take Molly Penelope Owens to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?"

"I do," Ethan said, looking straight into Molly's eyes. I could see how happy the two of them were.

"You may now place the ring on her finger," the priest said. Ethan took a deep breath before placing the ring of Molly finger. She giggled a little and smiled happily. The two of them exchanged glances. They were so in love.

"Molly Penelope Owens, do you take Ethan Anderson Walsh as your lawful husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?" the priest asked.

"I do," Molly replied, laughing a little. She slid the ring onto Ethan's finger and they smiled at each other.

"Well, by the state of South Dakota, I now pronounced you husband and wife," the priest said. "You may now kiss the bride. Ethan and Molly kissed once and the whole chapel was cheering.

"I love you," he said to her.

"I love you too," she said back.

These were my two best friends and I couldn't be happier for them.

"So take my hand, and take my whole life too. 'Cause I can't help falling in love with you…"

"When I first met Molly Owens, we were in our junior year US history class and she asked me and Dean to go to homecoming in a group with her and her boyfriend at the time. Molly was known as the popular cheerleader girl, knowingly pretty, still is, and I was so afraid that we wouldn't get along. But I went over to the house and we all got ready for homecoming and I realized I liked her a lot more than I thought I would. Guess that tells you never to judge a book by its cover. Weeks later we had our first heart to heart and I could just tell that she and I were going to be good friends. There was just something about her that made me trust her and we've been best friends ever since.

Ethan, you've been my best friend since I moved here. I know I'm supposed to talk about Molly, being the maid of honor and everything, but I couldn't help myself. You and I grew up together. You're amazing and I love you and I'm just so happy for you.

Molly, you've been an amazing friend to me and I'm so happy that you found love with my other best friend. I've seen you two together and you make each other so incredibly happy. Hah, I remember the first time you told me that you two were seeing each other. You were so afraid that I'd react badly but… of course it wasn't very expected but the minute I saw you two together, I knew you both were serious. Best of luck to the both of you. Molly, it's your turn to get the both the boy and the baby. I love you two so much," I said.

The guests cheered and then it was Kevin's, Ethan's best man, turn to speak.

"Ethan, my man, congratulations. When you first came to the hospital, we ended up teamed up on surgery a lot and I just figured: hey, why not get to know this guy? I'm pretty glad that I did. You've always got my back, in and out of the hospital. I remember the first time you brought Molly to one of the work parties. She lit up the room and got along with everyone. She lovely, man. You really lucked out on this one. I wish you the best of luck with the beginning of your marriage. You're just at the beginning of the rest of your life and you're in for a something great," Kevin said.

We clapped and then it was done.

"And now for the couple's first dance," Andrea announced.

The sweet sounds of Ingrid Michaelson's cover of "Can't Help Falling in Love" played through the speakers and Ethan pulled Molly into his arms and the two began to sway with the music.

"Dance with me," Dean whispered in my ear, beginning to get up out of his chair.

"I'd love to," I replied, following him out to the dance floor. Other couples joined us on the dance floor.

"Reminds you of ours, huh?"Dean asked.

I nodded, "Yeah, I know. Can you believe our wedding was four years ago?"

"No… can you believe we have a son?" Dean asked back.

I giggled, "No, but I'm glad we do. He's perfect, Dean. You know, he's getting more and more like you every day with his pie and his leather jacket and his growing love for rock music. We went to the supermarket the other day and he wouldn't settle on any other radio station but the rock one. Then, an AC/DC song came on and he cheered."

"The kid really is getting more and more like me every day," Dean said. The two of us glanced at Sawyer who was on the dance floor, dancing with Jude.

"It's good to have her home," I said.

"I bet. You miss her, don't you?" Dean asked.

I nodded. We continued to dance and I lay my head on Dean's chest and just listened to his heart beat. Weddings always brought out the romantic side out of me. They just reminded me how much I loved Dean.

Later on, when things started to dwindle down, Dean was talking to Bobby so I went over to Andrea who was saying goodbye to some guests.

"Hey, what're you up to?" I asked.

Andrea sighed, "Nothing, just saying goodbyes to people."

"Can you believe he's finally married?" I asked.

Andrea chuckled and shook her head, "No. It feels like just yesterday he was out in the backyard making mud pies. Hah, it feels like just yesterday the both of you were running around the café and making mischief but now he's married and you're married with a two year old kid! Since when did you two grow up on me?"

"I have no idea… don't worry, it feels like just yesterday for me too," I said back. "How are you doing though? What have you been up to?"

"Ah, you know, just running the café. I hired some more kids from Sioux Falls high school. I don't think I'll ever be able to replace you two but Blake came close," Andrea replied.

I chuckled, "Well, we still come around and visit too."

"I know, I know. I guess I miss having a full house sometimes. Those days when you're all here are the best. You guys are family! I know it's an unconventional kind of family but it's a family nonetheless. Those are pretty rare in this life," Andrea explained.

I nodded, "Yeah, we're lucky to have you. Thank you so much for babysitting Jude though. We are so grateful. With Dean's new job and my job… we're both working a lot. It was so much easier during the summer when I was able to stay home but I would never ask Dean to stay home and I'm not quite sure I could give up my teaching job. I've really missed the kids."

"How's that going?" Andrea asked.

"The kids are amazing again. Some of them, of course, don't care but some of them are really making progress," I replied. "That's what I love about this job. Seeing the kids grow and learn to love the literature."

Andrea smiled, "I always knew you would be a teacher when you grew up."Just then, Ethan joined our conversation.

"What are you two ladies talking about?" Ethan asked.

"Well, look who it is! The happy groom. Congratulations, sweetheart," Andrea said, hugging his mom.

"Yeah, congrats, you," I said, hugging Ethan when he was done hugging his mom.

"Nice speech, there, missy English teacher," Ethan teased.

I laughed, "Well, thanks. Hey, it's like old times. All we need is an old Madonna record or something and embarrassing dancing from Ethan."

"Hey! My dancing is not embarrassing!" Ethan protested. Andrea and I exchanged glances and then erupted in laughter.

"You're so adorable," I said.

"Oh Ethan," Andrea sighed.

"Oh, it looks like we've got to go but congrats. I love you. Make her happy, Ethan," I said, jokingly on the last part. I got up, hugged Ethan, and then met Dean at the door. "You ready to go?"

"Is that alright?" he asked back.

"Yeah, let me just say goodbye to Molly," I said back. I found Molly in a group of some of her friends from the company. I tapped her on the shoulder and she turned around.

"Hey, Mer, can I talk to you?" Sawyer interrupted.

"Yeah, what's up?" I asked back. I gave Dean a look but he just nodded as if to say 'go ahead'.

"So... the reason I haven't really been talking about work and stuff... well... I quit," Sawyer confessed.

"What? Why?" I asked, alarmed.

"We got a new boss and he's... terrible. He's trying to make the company something it's not. We're not publishing books that mean anything anymore. A coworker and I got to talk and she and decided to resign because... because we want to start a publishing company together," Sawyer said.

"Oh my God, Sawyer, that's great!" I exclaimed.

"Here's the other thing. I want to move back here. Tara and I both talked about where we'd do it and, I don't know, LA doesn't really seem to be the right thing. We've got a manuscript and everything and, I want to come home. I feel like I'm missing everything and I'm missing Jude growing up and... I just want to come home. Tara said she was in for Sioux Falls. We need to be away from the LA lights just to publish a book that's really going to mean something to someone. I think I'm moving back," Sawyer said.

"Really?" I asked, excitedly. I could barely believe what she was telling me.

"Really, Sawyer replied.

I smiled, "Oh my God, that's amazing, Sawyer! Go, you! That's awesome. Aw, congratulations."

"Thank you. And you're okay with all of this?" she asked.

"Of course I am! Why wouldn't I be?" I asked back.

She shrugged, "I don't know."

"Well, we look forward to having you back," I said. "But listen I've got to go say goodbye to Molly so that we can leave. Jude needs a nap and Dean and I need long overdue alone time together."

"Ahhh alone time. I get it," she smirked.

"Yeah... nothing's really changed there," I said back.

Sawyer chuckled, "I'm not surprised. But go ahead and go. I just wanted to tell you what was up because I've been working up the courage to tel you all this time."

I smiled, "Well thank you for telling me. It sounds so exciting."

"Thanks. Why are you the best sister ever?" Sawyer asked.

I laughed, "Thanks, I try." I replied jokingly. I hugged Sawyer and then made my way to Molly.

"Oh my God, you're speech was amazing, Mer!" she exclaimed, hugging me.

"Thanks. Hey, I've got to go right now. Jude is due for a nap but I wanted to say thank you so much, congrats, and good luck," I said.

"Aw, already?" she asked.

"Yeah," I said back.

"Alright, but thank you so much. I love you, Mer," Molly said.

"Love you too. Hey, have fun on your honeymoon," I said back.

"Oh I will," she winked. The two of us exchanged laughter before I returned to Dean.

"What do you say you and I go home and put Jude down for a nap and then you and I can do some celebrating ourselves," Dean whispered in my ear. I could feel his smirking.

"Okay," I said back.

"Sleepy," Jude mumbled. Dean held his hand as we walked through the door. We took Jude to the car and fastened him in his car seat.

"Hey Dean?" I said, before Dean could get in the car.

"Yeah?" he asked back.

"I love you," I said.

"I love you too, baby," he said back, walking around the car to the passenger door, where I was. Dean pulled me into a passionate kiss, and then kissed me up against the car.

"'Cause I can't help falling in love with you. I keep falling in love with you..."

Author's Note: Alright, I think this may be one of the last normal days for Dean and Meredith. I'm probably going to write one more chapter about their normal days before Sam comes back. What're you thinking of the story so far? Sorry updates have been so short/really unrecent BUT I'm on break. Also, I should be starting a new story very soon! Exciting! It'll be a little bit of a different side of hunting. Anyways, let me know what you're thinking of the story so far. Happy holidays everyone!
