We were settled into our new home. The twins are over a year old. They are learning so much. Starting to talk, walk and play together. Jughead and I are loving every minute of it. Fp was the one who got to see both of their first steps since he would watch them whenever he could. And Alice was the one who helped experiment with new foods for them since she loved to do lunch dates. Everyone seemed to be on the same page of adjusting to having these two with us. Everyone seemed to have the perfect thing they loved to have a part in. Skyler and Alison loved to have everyone around them to play with.
We are days away from the wedding. Planning has been extremely crazy. Veronica wanted to give her gift early for us. Which was to pay for the whole wedding so we could focus our money into the honeymoon. All we had to do was send her the information on where to get an item or pictures of what we wanted and she took care of everything else. She has been an amazing help to us with this gift. Since raising twins and all that comes with it has basically left us pay check to pay check on spending.
Wedding day
Everyone is here getting ready at the extravagant venue per Veronica's choice. It looked like a modern country/ball type set up. I havent really decided if I want to walk down the aisle alone or ask someone to walk with me. But now that the day is here I have decided that I didnt want to walk alone. There is one person who has always been a father to me. He has always made sure that I was protected and I had everything I needed even when I was just friends with Jughead.
"Hey veronica will you go ask Fp to come here?" Looking at her through the mirror staring at myself in my white dress, tight bust with spaghetti straps and soft flowing fabric from the bust down. Silk with a layer of sparkling over the top of it. My hair was curled into a bun.
"Sure thing B!" Smiling back at me admiring how everything seemed to fit perfectly on me. Before she walked out.
There was a faint knock at the dressing room door.
"Come in." I say loudly as my jitter start to grow.
"You wanted to talk to me?" Fo looks me over with a father like smile. "Betty, you look beautiful! No one will be able to take their eyes off you." He says admiring every detail veronica worked so hard to make fit her style.
"I uh, I wanted to ask you something...I never really had a father figure in my life. But since I have known Jug you have always been that father I always wanted." I say coyly "would you walk with me down the aisle?"
Fo walks over to pull me into a tight but gentle hug. "Sweetie, I would be honored! I have loves you since the day I first met you. You bring out the best in my son. I couldnt ask for a better daughter." He says trying to hide his obvious tears welling in his eyes.
We only invited a small amount of people. Some of Jugs serpent friends, Kevin, Veronica, Archie, and our parents. We sent out an invitation to JB and Jugs mom. But it got returned with a "return to sender" stamp. It felt horrible for Jug. He seemed to ignore it. "The ones that really care and matter will be there" he stated when he saw it had been returned.
I stood at the closed door waiting for the music to start.
Jughead's POV
Standing up at the front if all my friends and small family made me nervous. I want to share my whole life with Betty. I could have been ok with just eloping. I dont like being the center of attention. But I know Betty would regret doing that. So I allowed her to set everything the way she would really like it. The music starts, Veronica and Archie walk out, the maid of honor and best man. We decides they were the only ones we wanted to stand by us in this moment. They get to the front and split. Then Skyler walks down with the rings, then Alison as the flower girl. They were so cute in their little suit and dress. Alice walked with them to keep them on track then to hold them during the wedding. My nerves instantly going full speed. I see Betty at the door looking at me. She was radiant. The dress sparkled in the lighting. It fit her so perfectly. It was like it was made only for her. She was truly breath taking. Tears popped out of nowhere. I couldn't stop them as she walked closer to me with my father by her side. I fell more and more in love with her everything about her is absolutely perfect to me.
The wedding is in full swing the pastor tells me it's time to read my vows. Pulling my paper out of my tux pocket to read, "Betty, from the first time I met you I knew I wanted to protect you forever. I promise that if anyone tries to push you down again I will gladly punch them in the arm. Just as I did back in 4th grade. From the moment you chose me to love you I wanted nothing more than to keep fighting for you to love me every day. As long as I am alive I will never stop trying to keep our love as strong as the very first day. When you had our children I saw a strength in you I have never seen anyone else have. I want to be the person who is able to refuel that strength whenever you need it. I will love you with all my heart til death and after." I have finished out being a blubbering mess. And I cant wait to hear what she says.
"From the moment I met you there was something different. You stood by me when I was alone. You protected me from even the smallest things. I want to be your protector as well. The day I found out about our children, you knew before I told you. You made me feel like even though things were going to get much harder, it would be easy with you by my side. I want to be that person who makes life easier for you. As I stand here today. I know you are my one and only. You have taken my heart and locked it in a safe place, with you. Today I hope I have shown you that your heart is in a safe place as well, with me."
Her words are like she read my mind. All my fears and doubts have melted away. She is and forever will be my everything.
Everyone had so much fun dancing and spending time together. It was a night to remember. North and south side had become one. Even if just between one couple. We decided that we would postpone our honeymoon til our one year anniversary. So we can do a family vacation instead. We get home and put Skyler and Alison to bed. Tonight was a pretty easy one. They pretty much wore themselves out with all the fun and excitement.
We are finally comfortable in our bed. I pull Betty close, I don't want any space between us. My hand on the back of her neck and is one step ahead of me. Softly but deeply giving me a kiss. I want time to stay in this moment. Grabbing her lower back with my other hand, I smoothly pull her on top of me. I don't want to wait another minute to touch every part of her I can.
As the night goes on the passion is clear, they love each other to no end.
