Lucy's POV
Wedding Day
I woke up bright and early, today was the day, the biggest day of my life, Jellal had gone out with some of the men from the guild last night to celebrate his final night of being a bachelor, which gave me the chance to freak out silently by myself. My celebration was held a few days beforehand, with the girls of my guild and of Fairy Tail, yes, they had come to, everyone was here. Well except the members who are still missing, I was sad that they wouldn't be able to join in this experience with me, but I was happy all the same.
I quickly got in the shower and felt the warmth of the water all over my awaiting body, I was so excited and nervous, this was really happening! After today I would be Lucy NightStar Fernandez, yes, I had thrown in the nickname people had given us, it was catchy so I use it as a middle name, it wasn't surprising to the people of Fiore that we were getting married, even the reporters who interviewed us where happily awaiting for the big announcement that was sure to come sooner or later, they would be here today as well, taking pictures and getting the 'scoop' I didn't mind though, as long as they didn't ruin anything I would be fine.
I stepped out of the shower and got dressed, I walked to my kitchen, grabbed an Apple and silently chewed it, forcing it to stay down as the butterflies in my stomach flew around. I smiled to myself thinking of how the day would go, first I was going to have cancer style my hair, I wanted the ends to be curled, with it curled it would reach my lower back, straight it reached my knees, I was thinking of cutting it after we got back from our honeymoon. I was going to have Bisca do my makeup, just lightly though, I didn't want a lot, she should actually be here soon...
I finished my Apple and washed my hands, five seconds later there was a knock on the door and there stood Bisca, ready to help out, I was excited to get to the altar, it was only ten in the morning, the wedding would take place at six this evening so there was plenty of time, I just wanted to get things done so I wouldn't be rushed.
'Hello Lucy' she said as she walked in and have me a hug. 'Hi Bisca' I smiled and hugged her back. 'Feeling nervous' she smiled as she set down the box she had brought with her.
'Yes I am, but I'm excited to, but you would know all about it, since you and Alzack got married already' I teased, her and Alzack had gotten married a few months before Jellal proposed to me, so she knew all about wedding day jitters. She smiled at me and began taking makeup out of her box. 'Trust me, once you see him for the first time, he'll be the only one you'll see, there will be no one else but you and him, I was nervous to, but once I saw Alzack in his tux everything else disappeared' she said with a smile, I smiled back at what she said, I hoped it was true, I was nervous about walking down the iisle in front of my family members, plus the reporters.
'I guess I shouldn't be nervous then, plus it's just my family, and some reporters, that shouldn't make me so nervous' I laughed uneasily, she smiled again, 'it'll be okay, I promise, this will be the best day of your life' she said. Soon she guided me to a chair and sat me down, thus beginning the long process of makeup and hair.
Five-thirty. Thirty Minutes Before The Wedding.
I was really freaking out now, my bridesmaids were trying to calm me down, Bisca placed a hand on my shoulder and I stopped pacing, thirty minutes until the music started and I walked out, I had Macaou walking me, it only seemed right, to me anyways, he looked just as nervous as I did though, he wasn't the one getting married, why the heck was he nervous.
Yes, I hadn't invited my dad, he didn't deserve to share in my happiness, and he would probably have dragged me home just like he wanted two years ago, but unfortunately for him I was part of the magic council, he couldn't do anything to me anymore, and I knew he'd be mad about that.
'You ready, ten minutes' Aisu called out as she and her sister stared at me. 'You look beautiful master Lucy' Mizu said as she eyed my dress, I laughed, 'maybe I'll let you have it after I'm done' I winked at her as she went bright red, 'not funny' she pouted, Aisu and Bisca were holding their sides in laughter.
I shook out my hands as I felt they were getting sweaty from my nerves, I hoped with all of my heart that I wouldn't trip, Macaou would stronghold me up, right? Yeah, of course he would, okay, I can do this.
Que the music.
I looped my arm with Macaou's, I looked up to him and smiled, 'thanks for doing this' I said shyly, he smiled down at me, 'anything for a family member Lucy' that made me smile even more, I gripped his arm tighter as we walked out the door, I made eye contact with Jellal, and as soon as I did, all the gasps, flashes of cameras, and other things didn't exist anymore, it was just him and I, alone in the church, in the small town of Lumen.
As I was being handed off I reached up and kissed Macaou's cheek whispering my thanks again, he had tears in his eyes as he went to sit next to Wakaba, who in turn patted him on the back, from there the ceremony started, I barely listened to what the priest was saying I was staring intently at my soon to be husband, he looked so handsome in his black tux with his blue tye.
We said our vows and exchanged rings once the priest was done talking about everything, I barely registered the fact that the wedding was coming to an end already, my nervousness was completely gone by the time I set foot outside, now I didn't want it to end.
'Do you Jellal Fernandez take Lucy Heartfillia to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward. For better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, for as long as you both shall live?'
'I do' that made my heart flutter and I'm pretty sure my cheeks turned the slightest bit of red.
' And do you Lucy Heartfillia take Jellal Fernandez, to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, for as long as you both shall live?'
'I do' I said without hesitation, as I gazed into the eyes of my lover, I knew that this is what I'd always wanted, a home, with him, he was the only one I wanted.
'I now pronounce you Mr. and Mrs. Fernandez, you may now kiss the bride!' The priest said excitedly, and we did just that, we kissed passionately, and as flashes of cameras and cheers surrounded us we broke apart to look upon our families, this was truly our home, I had never felt so loved, my world felt complete in that moment. But I knew it wasn't, what with the Fairy Tail members missing and whatever was going on with the council, not to mention my weird tattoos, this happiness that I felt...would it only be short lived?
