I do not own anything.
Okay as this is the last chapter of this story may I just apologize for how long its taken and thank anyone who has read it. Also special thanks to Raven Of Blood, this story was for you.
CHAPTER 7
Tess looked down at the long ivory dress she wore. The bodice strapless and hugging her tiny ottsel frame as the skirt fell down to the floor covering her feet. She giggled and looked up at Keira "I hope I don't trip over this and fall flat on my face" she said as she jumped up on to the table in front of her.
"I'm sure you'll be just fine...I was terrified I'd do the same when I got married" Keira laughed fixing the small tiara in to Tess' hair.
Tess frowned at her "You should be up there with me" she said sadly
"And I will be...I'll walk you down that eisle and then hand you over to Daxter" she smiled "Although I'm not really giving you to him...not really, not ever" Keira giggled
Tess flung her arms around Keira's neck and hugged her tight "Thank you Keira for being my family"
"You're welcome...thank you for being mine" she said hugging her back.
Tess let go of her and smiled "Right enough or we'll have to get our make up done again"
"Come on then...soon to be Mrs Orange Lightening" Keira giggled helping her down off the table.
Daxter fussed about with the tiny bow tie around his neck as he paced up and down the throne room of Spargus Palace. He stopped and looked out of the window overlooking the desert his gaze landing on the temple "Why didn't we get married in the temple?" he asked
"Because Dax Keira has just had a baby and cannot make that trip and you didn't want to wait a couple of weeks" Jak frowned as he crouched in front of his son fastening his small jacket.
Daxter nodded "Where's Tex?" he asked
Sig sighed "She's with little Damas in the palace nursery" he said getting up "Daxter will you just relax"
"Yeah Dax...you've been wanting this for long enough" Jak said standing up and taking Taj's hand
Daxter nodded "I know but now it's finally arrived its like I'm waiting for something to go wrong"
"Nothing will go wrong" Jak smiled "Come on lets go".
Daxter stood nervously at the front of the great hall in Spargus Palace. He looked up at Jak stood next to him smiling over at his three children being looked after by Samos. Anya nattering away to him while Taj looked around the room.
"What are you smiling at?" Daxter frowned
Jak chuckled and looked down "Samos' head is about to explode...how the hell did he manage to raise Keira on his own?" he said shaking his head.
"God Jak is that all you ever think about these days?" Daxter huffed
Jak frowned and crouched to Daxters level "I know you're nervous so I'm going to pretend you didn't say that...but yes my family is usually the first thing on my mind"
"Yeah sorry...I guess I'm learning that" Daxter said rubbing the back of his neck
Jak placed a hand on his shoulder "What is wrong with you Dax...you know Tess loves you...you've got a child...you've been together years...what's going on?"
"I just...god it's just she's so much too good for me it's not funny and I guess I'm just afraid today will be the day that she realises it and leaves me" Daxter said sadly
Jak smiled "Don't be daft Daxter...as unbelievable as it is she loves you"
"Yes I know but..." he smiled and thought for a minute "Who'd have thought we'd be where we are now?"
Jak nodded and stood back up "Wouldn't have thought it when we spent our days running around the wasteland would we"
Daxter shook his head as the music hit and Tess stepped in to the room. He grinned and his eyes went wide as he watched her walk slowly towards him.
After a short ceremony Daxter and Tess stood under the archway covered with roses in the palace gardens looking out at their friends and family. Tess smiled as Keira played with Tex and showed her to Anya.
Daxter squeezed her hand and she turned to him "Looks like we've finally found our family"
He turned to her and wrapped his arms around her waist and looked at her deeply in the eyes "I know we've both been unlucky enough to lose our families but I think now we've managed to club together a pretty amazing second one"
"You're right...Keira and Jak are our sister and brother...the kids our nephews and niece and even Samos yells at you like he's your father" Tess giggled
Daxter laughed "And now we have our own daughter to complete our family"
"I love you Daxter" Tess smiled
Daxter rested his head on Tess' "I love you too...I was so afraid you'd realise that you're too good for me today and you'd leave"
"Never ever going to happen" She whispered
Daxter smiled and pressed a sweet kiss to her lips.
Okay sorry this is a short ending but I kinda ran out of momentum. I hope you're not too disappointed. X X X X
