Danny p.o.v
What if he changes his mind?
What if we get there and he says no?
What would I do with my life?
I love him so much but I am really freaking out.
Today I am marrying Jordon Terrell aka Charlie Scene. Nobody ever expected that the party animal of the band would ever settle down and nobody expected that it was going to be me that tamed the wild crazy party animal. Yet here were are on my wedding day in a room getting ready for the day ahead.
"Are you okay Danny?" Kyle my older brother asks me. Jorel, my best man turns around to look at me after Kyle spoke. "Yeah, just got wedding day nerves I guess," I tell him. It's not the whole truth but then again it is not a total lie either. "Are you scared that it isn't going to go right?" Jorel asks me. By now Kyle had his arms around me, trying to keep me from losing it. "Yeah, what if this is just a lie?" I ask, going quiet.
"Danny, I have known Jordon all my life. He told me about how he felt about you for years, he isn't going to change his mind now, he isn't a total dickhead," Jorel says, hugging me from the front as Kyle was hugging my back. "Don't worry little bro, everything is going to be fine, you'll see, now let's finish getting you ready and go and find Scarlett," Kyle says messing my hair up completely.
Jorel got the hairbrush and made me sit down. He then took five minutes styling my hair until he thought it was smart enough for the event and put some hair gel in. I was getting the tuxedo jacket on when there was a knock on the door. "Are you boys presentable?" Theresa, my ex-wife asks from the other side of the door. "Yeah Reese, you can come in," I say, my voice back to a more confident tone.
She walks in with Scarlett holding her hand. Theresa has been very understanding throughout the whole time. She knew that my heart was no longer in the relationship and we broke it off on very good terms. She allows me to have Scarlett whenever I am able to and she made sure that I knew everything that was going on in her life and face-timed whenever we were on tour.
"You look amazing Danny, you still can't tie ties though," she says with a chuckle. She sorts my tie out for me and Scarlett waits patiently for me to be available for a cuddle. I love my daughter, she looks so pretty in her little golden dress and her curls fell on the side. She was going to be the ring bearer and we decide to include Ava by making her a flower girl like she asked to be. Scarlett runs to me for a cuddle, "so is Uncle Charlie going to be my papa now?" she asks. I smile, "Do you want him to be?" I ask her. "Yeah, but you're still my daddy," she says snuggling into me tightly. Everyone in the room laughs at her cute antics.
Then Theresa leaves Scarlett with me and my mom walks in. "My beautiful boy, I can't believe I am going to be walking you down the aisle today. I am so proud of you," she says hugging me gently and kissing my temple. "Hey mom, I am a bit sad that dad can't be here to see this," I says, hugging her back. She gives me a sad smile, "Well you know what your dad is like. I am not sure he would have accepted this to be honest with you." She says.
"That's a shame but let's focus on today where it is all about Danny and Jordon," Kyle says. "Yeah, it's not every day a mother gets to walk her son down the aisle," my mother says with a smile. She gives Scarlett a cuddle. "Do you have the rings Scarlett?" she asks her. "Mommy has them, she said she was going to give them to me before we go," Scarlett says. That's okay I know that Theresa will keep them safe.
The nerves had started coming back. It was never this bad when I was getting married to Theresa, I was a little nervous but I knew that she was in love with me and there was no fear of rejection that time. "Are you nervous again Danny?" Kyle asks me. Scarlett hugs my leg, trying to comfort me. "You'll be okay Danny, I'm sure everything will be fine," my mum says. She rubs my back and the nerves calm down a little bit.
"It's show time, is everyone ready to go?" Theresa asks once she re-enters the room. She has the ring box and the cushion in her hands. She walks to me and sorts my jacket out. She then holds the cushion out for Scarlett to hold carefully she then places the rings on them. "Hold that very carefully now darling, okay?" she says kissing Scarlett's temple. "Okay, mummy," Scarlett says.
Theresa holds onto Scarlett's hand and leads her out of the door. "I am going to sit down, I'll see you in a bit," Kyle says and leaves the room. My mum checks Jorel's suit out. "Yep, everyone is good to go," she says after adjusting his suit a tiny amount. She checks my suit out one more time just to make sure that it was presentable.
I take her arm and we walk out of the room towards the aisle. Scarlett walks just a little bit head of us, holding her mother's hand. She looks so adorable. We head towards the end of the aisle where Jordon and the priest are waiting. Jordon looked amazing, that man should wear suits more often. He looks so good in them; he doesn't realize how much people like him wearing suits instead of the cholo outfits he keeps wearing.
Ava was with Scarlett and throwing her petals everywhere. Our wedding theme was black and gold, Charlie's idea since he wanted it to be about us, the gold of my mask and the black of his bandana. He decided he was going to plan the whole wedding based on us and make it very personal. He has been very excited about planning this since I said yes to him.
He was watching me walk down the aisle, holding onto my mother's arm. His parents were gone but he had the other guys standing in a row next to him, Jorel included. My brother was also standing with them, instead of bridesmaids we had groom's men. Seemed more fitting since we are both males getting married. My mom walked me right up to Jordon and placed my hands into his.
My mom, Theresa, Scarlett and Ava went to their seats and sat down. Now it was crunch time, I was getting nervous again. The vicar was uneasy about it but since gay marriage is legal in America now so he was getting paid to do this. "Dearly beloved, we are gather here in the sign of God – and in the face of this company – to join together this man and this man in holy matrimony, which is commended to be honourable among all men; and therefore – is not by any – to be entered into unadvisedly or lightly – but reverently, discreetly, advisedly and solemnly. Into this holy estate these two persons present now come to be joined. If any person can show just cause, why they may not be joined together – let them speak now or forever hold their peace." He starts.
I was thankful that Aron knew nothing about me and no longer cared enough about Hollywood Undead to show up, he would definitely have something bad to say about our wedding. Everyone else here was very supportive of my relationship with Jordon. No one spoke up if they did have any issues either. No dramatic entrances from former partners telling us to stop the wedding.
"Marriage is the union of husband and husband in heart, body and mind. It is intended for their mutual joy – and for the help and comfort given on another in prosperity and adversity. But more importantly – it is a means through which a stable and loving environment may be attained." He says, changing everything that was supposed to be about a straight couple to our couple.
"Through marriage, Jordon Terrell and Daniel Murillo make a commitment together to face their disappointments – embrace their dreams – realize their hopes – and accept each other's failures. Jordon Terrell and Daniel Murillo will promise one another to aspire to these ideals throughout their lives together – through mutual understanding – openness – and sensitivity to each other." He said, replacing the bride's name with mine.
"We are here today – before God – because marriage is one of His most sacred wishes – to witness the joining in marriage of Jordon Terrell and Danny Murillo. This occasion marks the celebration of love and commitment with which this man and this man begin their life together. And now – through me – He joins you together in one of the holiest bonds. Who gives this man in marriage to this man? "He says, you can see the trend here.
"His family and friends gathered here today do." My mom says, standing up. She was very proud of me and that was something everyone could see who was with us in the church. The people would probably have been confused by the two men, but as my name was replacing the bride's name with mine.
"This is a beginning and a continuation of their growth as individuals. With mutual care, respect, responsibility and knowledge comes the affirmation of each one's own life happiness, growth and freedom. With respect for individual boundaries comes the freedom to love unconditionally. Within the emotional safety of a loving relationship – the knowledge self-offered one another becomes the fertile soil for continued growth. With care and responsibility towards self and one another comes the potential for full and happy lives. By gathering together all the wishes of happiness and our fondest hopes for Jordon Terrell and Daniel Murillo from all present here, we assure them that our hearts are in tune with theirs." He continues, man I forgot how boring this was.
"These moments are so meaningful to all of us, for "what greater thing is there for two human souls than to feel that they are joined together – to strengthen each other in all labour – to minister to each other in all sorrow – to share with each other in all gladness. This relationship stands for love, loyalty, honesty and trust, but most of all for friendship. Before they knew love, they were friends, and it was from this seed of friendship that is their destiny. Do not think that you can direct the course of love – for love, if it finds you worthy, shall direct you." He says.
"Marriage is an act of faith and a personal commitment as well as a moral and physical union between two people. Marriage has been described as the best and most important relationship that can exist between them. It is the construction of their love and trust into a single growing energy of spiritual life. It is amoral commitment that requires and deserves daily attention. Marriage should be a lifelong consecration of the ideal of loving kindness – backed with the will to make it last." He says.
Now the last statement is not true for some people. I was happily married to Theresa for a few years before we naturally split as we knew the love was no longer there and we just weren't happy anymore. We tried so hard for so long. Jordon and Randi were never really happy together, they always fought with one another.
"With this ring, I give you my heart, I promise from this day forward, you shall not walk alone, may my heart be your shelter, and my arms be your home. From the day I laid my eyes upon you, I knew I had to get to know you better, you were this shy guy who never spoke unless spoken to and now you are this amazing individual whom I love to the moon and back and more." Jordon says, that's his wedding vows to me.
"Today and always, beyond tomorrow, I need you beside me, always as my best friend, lover and forever my soul mate. I always sat, often in silence wondering if there was ever a way to tame the great Jordon Terrell all it took was for me to fall head over heels for you and show you how much you mean to me," I say, my vows are nowhere near as good as his but they were mine and I managed to bring tears to his eyes.
"What token of your love do you offer? Would you place the rings in my hand?" the vicar asks. Scarlett smiles and walks up to the vicar and shows the vicar the rings, smiling proudly at him. He guides her to stand to the side so she was holding the rings for us to put on each other's fingers. We then do the ring exchange, this was getting really long winded and boring so I left it out.
"You may now kiss the groom," he announces once we are done. Jordon cups my cheeks and pulls me into a very nice kiss. Everyone starts cheering for us. We are now husbands, and I was so happy. I am positive that the fear I showed earlier on was just wedding jitters and I shouldn't have been nervous. Now we are together and I am hoping this will last.
The wedding party after was amazing. Everybody was dancing and eating and having so much fun. We had our first official dance as a married couple to a lovely slow dance and I never enjoyed a dance so much in my entire life. The whole wedding was being filmed for memories and I know I was going to be amazing to show our children in the future. Scarlett might still remember the day her daddy got married to another man but if we have any more children they will not have been around to see it so it would be nice to for them.
Of course it was also an opportunity for the fans to see our wedding and gush over how adorable our relationship is and the guys could use it to tease me for the slight height difference because sadly those guys have nothing better to do with their time. Well they might have but they chose to waste it by being complete muppets and tease me over something so insignificant, well I keep saying they when it is mainly funny man who tries to be the joker of the group but fails.
Scarlett was having the most fun with Ava on the dance floor and they took the show. Everyone decided to start watching my little girl and her friend just dance around and have so much fun and show the world how innocent they were. Then they ran to George and I and asked us to dance with us which we couldn't refuse. I took my daughters small hand in my own and we danced around the dance floor not having a care in the world.
Then I danced with my mother while Jordon watched from the side-lines. While we danced together she held me close and allowed me to rest my head on her shoulder. "I'm so proud of you Danny," My mum says to me while we dance. Scarlett was tugging on Jordon's trouser leg trying to let him know that she wanted his attention but he was too busy watching me to pay any attention to his new step-daughter.
Once my dance was over I picked Scarlett up and walked over to Jordon, who smiled and hugged us. "Well hello my sexy husband and my cute little cupcake," he says. "Hello Jordon," I reply and Scarlett made grabby hands for Jordon who took her in a cuddle. "Daddy and papa dance with me?" Scarlett asks us so innocently. Jordon and I share a look and we go to the dance floor with her and dance with her in between the two of us.
The best man speech made by Jorel had to be a highlight. He did it just before we started dancing. "Hello everyone, I am Jorel. I have known Jordon since high school. He was the only guy that I knew that could make both girls and boys swoon at his feet. I remember the time when we were only talking about making a band and now we are superstars. When he met Danny he totally changed he always seemed happy but even more so when little Danny was around. He also drinks slightly less than before," he says, pausing for people to laugh when appropriate, both Jordon and I laughed because it was amazing.
"I can tell, Jordon and Danny are very much in love and will have many happy years together. I would like to tell them both it was a special honour for me to be asked to be part of this amazing day for them both. I and the rest of the wedding party would like to propose a toast to the happy couple and wish them years upon years of blissful, happiness and our best wishes. Also I have got to stop being so cheesy," he says making me laugh. Speeches are never his thing and I could tell he was nervous at the start but once he got into it he was just as confident as ever.
The speeches made by the best man were always the funniest thing to listen to as he always tried to embarrass the newly wedded couple and most of the time it does and makes us smile. Jorel was playing safe so he didn't actually embarrass me or Jordon. Well maybe the swooning might have embarrassed Jordon a bit but he didn't show any signs of being embarrassed at the time of the speech being read out.
It was starting to get later on in the day and slowly but surely the guests left as it was time for them to go home and put little children to bed. The only people who are left are the rest of the guys and some of my family. Scarlett was in my arms and was dozing off. She was really tired and the day was so busy and long for her. I was surprised that she wasn't sleeping by now. "We are going to leave in a little bit but we just wanted to chill with the newlyweds before the honeymoon," George says carefully hugging me while Scarlett was in my arms and Ava was in his.
"Yeah these little ones need to go bed soon," I said, motioning to Scarlett who was starting to fall asleep in my arms. I kissed her forehead and shifted her ever so slightly so she could be comfortable while she slept. "Go to sleep now little angel, it's okay you've had a busy day," I tell my daughter. Jordon had his arm wrapped around my shoulder and hugged me. Scarlett was out within seconds.
Jorel and Vanessa were hugging each other on our other side. "Your wedding next then," Jordon says while Dylan nudges the couple. They chuckle and smile. "Yeah, have to wait a little bit though, don't want them to be to close and you guys to miss out on Danny's turn to be best man," Jorel says with a grin. I let out a shocked sound, they hadn't said who they had picked to be their best man yet.
"Yeah sorry we didn't tell you before now but your best day was coming up so we wanted it to be a stress free and as smooth as possible." Vanessa says with an apologetic smile. "It's fine girl, I just wasn't expecting to be picked that's all, I'm happy though," I say with a little goofy grin which sends the guys into a giggle fit. Well it had to be a quite giggle fit since we had two sleeping children in the room. We didn't want to wake them.
The guys started to clean up and Jordon was about to go and help them but he was handed Ava. "It's your big day dude, no cleaning up for you two," George says, pointing in my direction. Jordon walked over to me holding Ava as we watched the rest of the guys clean up the little mess left by the party. "This is what we would look like if we had two children and they fell asleep," I told him, once it had been silent for a few minutes.
"I know, it would be great to have another little one to call our own running around," Jordon says. I smiled, well I was happy that I was married to someone who is family-orientated and doesn't hate the idea of having more children. I don't think I would marry someone who is not comfortable with me already having a child. I hold Scarlett a little bit tighter, she is so precious to me.
Theresa came up to see us and smiled at the sight of me holding our daughter while she slept so peacefully. "Hey, I'm going to head off now but I'll come pick Scarlett up in the morning so you two can enjoy the honeymoon." She says, then goes to kiss Scarlett's head. "Thanks Theresa, I'm sorry things didn't work out between us," I told her. She shakes her head and hugs me and Scarlett.
"Danny it's fine, your heart wasn't in the relationship and I am happy that we ended it as close friends for her sake. I see how much happier you are with Jordon and all I can say is I wish you two the best and just be happy together," she says, with a sad smile. Jordon hugs her next. "Thanks Theresa, don't forget you are just as important as Danny. There will be someone out there waiting for the amazing lady with a child who happens to be the daughter of the lead of Hollywood Undead." Jordon says. "Thanks Jordon," Theresa says with a chuckle. She then walks away.
I felt a little sorry for her that it didn't work out between us. There was love there at the very beginning but once I got closer to Jordon in just kind fizzled out. Thankfully when she found out we mutually agreed to divorce and sort out what happened with Scarlett's care and custody without a mega fee or mega issue. She decided when I was on tour while part of it was going on the she moved out instead of me, she said she didn't want me to go through any additional stress if I was to return from a tour and find myself homeless.
Anyway the guys where finished with the little clean-up they decided to do and we all decided now would be as good a time as any to go home. It was starting to get late and Jordon and I had a flight to get tomorrow afternoon so I wanted to get some rest then squeeze in a much daddy daughter time with Scarlett before she went to her mum for the two weeks we were going to be away for. Jordon gave Ava back to her daddy before we left and I put Scarlett in her car seat.
I was surprised that when we got home Scarlett was still fast asleep, but then again it was approaching ten pm when we got through all the traffic and the party was over and everything so I should have expected her to be down for the night. "I'll put our daughter into bed, you go and get changed for bed," Jordon says as he gets out before me and gets Scarlett out of the car.
I let him do this as I was getting quite tired myself and I really wanted to get a shower done before we left and as I wanted to spend some one on one time with Scarlett before the honeymoon flight I wouldn't have time to do it in the morning like Jordon would have. I also liked the way he said our daughter, to me it meant that he was accepting his new parental responsibilities that came to being married to a single father.
By the time I was done with the shower and I had out my suit away and I was ready for bed, Jordon had done the same and he was lying on our bed. Shirtless and in one of those draw me like one of your French girl positions. "Like what you see?" he asks, with a sexy grin. I blushed, he got me there. "Maybe I do, maybe I don't," I tell him, the blush totally gave away that I liked what I saw. "I know you do like it hubby, so come here," he says.
I sat on the edge of the bed and then felt his arms around my waist and pulls me over so I was now next to him and our skin was touching. I look up at him with a wide smile. "Do you love me Danny?" he asks me; I give him the really look. "Of course you ding dong, I wouldn't have agreed to marry you if I hated your guts," I tell him. He kissed my neck and I wasn't so keen on that so I wriggled a little to get out of his grip.
Then he started kissing me more, going from my head down to my waist, occasionally stopping for a moment to leave his mark on me. I then wrapped my arms around his neck and started a deep, passion filled kiss. We kissed until we really needed to breathe so it forced us to stop for that moment. "Wow, that was amazing, you've been holding back on me haven't you Danny?" he says, slightly breathless.
"Yeah, I had to. I didn't want to give you a kiss like that only for you to break my heart," I tell him, also slightly breathless. He holds me protectively. "Well, like I said today, I am going to be there for you for ever, whenever you need me. I am not going to break your heart for as long as I live," he says, resting his head on top of mine.
He makes us lie down and I snuggle into his protective hold. "You know I love you and the little one with all my heart Danny," he says, making me look into his eyes. "I know and I love you and Scarlett with all my heart too," I tell him, my heart-melting smile appearing. "You know what that smile does to me," he says. "Yeah well I can't help that my smile melts your heart and makes you go weak at the knees," I tell him.
This was how life was supposed to be.
Hey guys I know if you saw my schedule on Instagram that this is actually a day later than I intended for it to be posted but I had some technical issues and this wasn't actually quite finished and I ran out of time yesterday but it is done now.
The next one shot is hopefully going to go up Sunday sometime but I am also working on Demon inside's sixth chapter so I don't know if it will definitely go up then but I will try my best to stick to the schedule.
Anyway I hope you enjoyed and as always reviews are very welcome. I enjoy reading them when they don't contain hate for me. . I might not always reply to them but fear no I have read them and any suggestions have been noted down so they will be written at some point..
Also ten oneshots officially, this will probably be the shortest and boring one but I have never written a wedding before and my memory of weddings i have been to is not that great sorry.
