Chapter 12: The Big Day

It was the next morning everybody still a little tired from the previous night. It was after 8 am before Lily woke up. She slowly got out of the bed and went to the bathroom. Her hair was a mess and she needed to brush her teeth. Lily brushed all the knots out of her hair then brushed her teeth. When Lily got done with the bathroom she heard Catherine, Sara, and Emily getting up. Lily went to her suitcase to get a fresh pair of clothes. "Good morning sleepy heads," Lily said while grabbing her clothes.

"Good morning," Catherine replied while stretching. "How long have you been up?" Sara asked. "Not long I had even time to use the toilet, brush my hair and teeth," Lily replied. Lily walked back to the bathroom to change her clothes. It didn't take her long. She came out and put her dirty clothes in her bag. The rest of them took turns using the bathroom. "How about we order room service," Sara suggested. "It sounds good to me," Catherine replied. "I was just thinking about breakfast. I was getting hungry," Lily said. "Same here," Emily replied. Catherine picked up the room phone and dialed for room service.

"I would like to have pancakes with cherries and whipped cream, 3 sausage links, bacon, and cup of coffee," Catherine said. Next Sara told her order. "I will have a vegetarian omelet, 2 biscuits with strawberry jam, and cup of orange juice," Sara said. Next was Emily to order her breakfast. "I will have pancakes with strawberries and whipped cream, eggs, and cup of orange juice," Emily said. Lily was the last to order her breakfast. "I would like to have 6 sausage links, 2 cheese omelets, bacon, 2 biscuits with honey, 1 pancake with sausage on stick, and a big cup of orange juice," Lily replied. They called back the order to confirm it. The chef told them it would be take 20 minutes for it to be done.

It was 8:30 am when Greg woke up. He grab some fresh clothes from his bag and went to the bathroom. Greg walked over to the sink. He looked in the mirror. "Today is the day," Greg thought to himself. Greg had combed his hair and brushed his teeth. The he went to use the toilet. After that he changed his clothes. Then he walked back into the room to put his dirty clothes back into his bag. The rest of the guys started to wake up.

"Good morning guys. Did ya'll have a good night of sleep," Greg said. "Yeah I did. How was your night?" Nick replied. "I slept well just a little nervous about today though," Greg said. "I slept a good last night," Matt replied while yawning. "Same here," Langston said. "Don't be man you will get through it," Nick said trying reassure him. The rest of the guys took turns with the bathroom. "So how about we order some good old room service?" Matt said. "Sounds like a good plan," Nick replied. Then Greg's stomach started to growl. "I guess I'm hungry," Greg replied.

Matt went to the phone and dialed room service. "Can I take your orders," the waiter asked. "Yes I will have a stack of 3 waffles with maple syrup, 7 sausage links, 5 French toast sticks, butter toast with honey, and big cup of coffee," Matt replied. "Damn Matt you must be hungry too," Nick said. Matt couldn't help but to laugh at Nick's smart remark. Then he handed the phone to Langston. "I'll have 5 sausage links, eggs, bacon, 3 French toast sticks, and cup of coffee," Langston said. Next Langston handed the phone to Nick. "I'll have pancakes with butter syrup, sausage, bacon, eggs, and a cup of coffee," Nick replied. Then Greg was last to order his breakfast. "I will have 4 French toast sticks, 5 sausage links, 3 cheese omelets, bacon, butter toast with grape jam, and cup of orange juice," Greg said. The waiter called out the order. "Your order been done in 20 minutes," the waiter said. They got off the phone and waited for their breakfast.

"While we are waiting for our breakfast we are going to give you some advice," Catherine said. "Should I be scared?" Lily asked. "Not at all Sara do you want to start first," Emily replied. "Sure," Sara replied. They gathered around the two beds in the room. "Well it won't come easy at the time but it's all worth it in the end," Sara replied. "I'm next. Don't take your man for granted," Emily said. "I won't," Lily replied while smiling. "Last but not least enjoy all the little moments they mean the most," Catherine said.

"Thank you for the advice," Lily said while tears formed. "You're welcome," Emily replied. "How about a group hug," Sara suggested. Every one of them got up and did a group hug. "So we still have 10 minutes till breakfast is going to be here. How about we have a pillow fight to pass the time," Emily said. "Isn't it a little childish?" Lily asked. "Not really a lot of people still do it," Sara replied. "Ok let the pillow war begin," Lily said. They each grab a pillow and started a pillow fight.

They began their pillow war. They kept hitting each other and knocking each other down. They were having fun with the pillow fight. They would laugh when one of them got knocked down. Before long there was a knock on the door. "Looks like breakfast is here," Sara said. "I will get the door," Emily replied. The bell hop rolled the trays of food into the room. The bell hop put the food on the table. Lily tipped the bell hop and left. They sat down at the table and start to eat their breakfast.

"What should we do while we wait for our breakfast to come?" Matt asked. "Um I don't know," Langston replied. Then Greg noticed that there was an Xbox 360 in the room. "How about we play a game on the Xbox," Greg pointed out. "Sounds good to me," Nick replied. They walked to TV and looked through the games that were there. One game caught their eyes. It was Need for Speed: Undercover. "How about this game?" Nick asked while pulling out Need for Speed.

"I love that game," Matt replied. "It looks like it is the only good game here," Nick said. Nick popped the game into the Xbox and grab the controllers. They bump into each other cars like their bodies where on fire. They where having so much fun time passed by. They almost didn't hear the knock on the door. "You know that was an unfair move," Nick said. "You're just mad you didn't think of it. And breakfast is here," Matt replied.

"I will get the door while you two argue it out," Greg said. Greg got up and answered the door. "You know it probably won't end well," Langston said. "I know," Greg replied. The bellhop had set up the food on the only table in the room. Langston gave a tip to the bellhop for the service. "Can you two stop arguing for a few minutes? Come and eat your breakfast please," Greg said. Nick and matt stopped arguing and went to eat their breakfast. "That was the most stupid argument you two had," Langston said.

It nearly took 30 minutes for the girls to eat their breakfast. "Wow that was a good breakfast," Emily said. "Yeah I know," Lily replied. "Same here," Sara said. "Agreed," Catherine said. Emily was fidgety all morning. "Can we please tell her I'm bad at keeping secrets," Emily said speaking up. Lily had a confused look on her face. "Tell me what," Lily said. "Emily did warn us that she was bad at keeping secrets. Though I'm surprised she kept it this long," Sara replied.

Sara shot Catherine one of those looks said 'lets go head and tell her.' "Since we had a wild night last night we are going to have a day of relaxation. So we are going to Qua Baths and Spa at Caesars Palace," Catherine said. "I always wanted to go to Caesars Palace," Lily said while jumping in joy. "We're leaving soon," Sara replied. They got packed up. They went around the room grabbing their stuff. They finally got their bags packed and started to leave the room. They went to the lobby and proceed to the check out counter.

After they left the check out counter they went to their vehicles. They put their bags in the trunk of their cars. They got into their cars and left the hotel parking lot. It was a 15 minute drive to get to Caesars Palace. Lily was happy because she always wanted to go to Qua Baths and Spa. They parked their cars and went inside.

They guys demolished their breakfast in no time. "I can't believe you ate all of your breakfast Matt," Nick said. "Hey I was hungry," Matt replied. "I know that," Greg said. "At least they ate in peace," Langston added in. "That's true," Greg said. "Hey no fair ya'll know that Nick started it first," Matt replied in protest. Langston and Greg gave a chuckle. "Hey how about we see a movie and play a couple games of bowling. By the way Matt actually you started it when we were playing the game," Nick said. "It's good with me. I was planning on relaxing anyways. And what movie do ya'll want to see," Greg replied. "That new Fast and Furious movie," Langston suggested.

"I've been wanting to see that movie for a little while now," Greg replied. "Me too," Nick said. "Same here," Matt chimed in. "I guess we all in agreement about the new Fast and Furious movie," Nick said. They packed up their bags. They went everywhere in the room grabbing their things. They got their bags packed. They were waiting on Matt to finish packing. "Come on man I've never seen anybody pack their bag slow until today," Nick said. "I'm coming," Matt replied while dragging his feet.

"I guess that big breakfast is slowing him down," Greg said. Matt gave Greg an stink eye look. Matt finished packing his bag. They headed out of the room and went to the check out counter. They put their bags in the trunk of their cars. They left the hotel and went to the movie theater. It didn't take them long to get to the movie theater. They parked their cars and got out. The guys went inside of the movie theater and brought tickets for the movie. Even though they had a big breakfast the guys wanted popcorn and sodas for watching the movie. So they went to the food counter.

When Lily walked into Caesars Palace she couldn't believe her eyes the place was stunning. Catherine saw the look on Lily's face. "You must not have been to a spa before?" Catherine asked out of courtesy. "No I haven't. This place is huge," Lily replied. The lady behind the counter had lead them to a room for their manicures and pedicures. "I think I'm going to like this," Lily said. "Me too," Emily replied. Each of them sat down at a different station to get their manicures.

After they were done with their manicures they got their pedicures next. The rest of the day they spent getting massages, wraps, and facials. They even ate lunch there. Lily had a great time at Caesars Palace. Who could blame her? She needed to be relaxed on today. "So you enjoy yourself there, Lily?" Sara asked. "Yeah I am thanks for asking," Lily replied. "God is that the time," Catherine said. They looked at the clock on the wall. "I think it is," Sara replied.

"I think its time to go. It's going to be an hour's drive to get into Reno," Catherine said. "Ok," Lily replied. They went to the dressing room to get their clothes back on. Then they checked out of the spa. They got into their vehicles and took the hour's drive to The Chism House. When they got there it was 5:30 pm. They parked their cars and went inside. Lily and the girls went into the bridal dressing room. When Lily walked into the room Katy Lopez was waiting on her. When Lily left the hospital 3 months ago her and Katy got to talk for a few minutes. Katy was telling her she was a hair stylist and make up artist. So Lily had asked Katy if she would do her hair and make up for her wedding. Katy had said yes and Lily also invited her to the wedding.

The guys got their popcorn and sodas. They walked inside of the screening room and sat down. A few minutes later the movie started. Two and half hours later they came out of the screening room. "That was a good movie," Greg said. "It was good but they could have made it better," Matt replied. "That movie was all around good," Nick added in. "Yeah it was," Langston said. They stop by a trash can so they could throw away their trash. "So how about we go and play a few rounds of bowling," Matt said.

"Can I make a small suggestion," Nick asked. "Yeah sure," Greg replied. "Ok," Matt said. "Sure," Langston replied. "How about we break into two teams the losing team has to take off their shirts and dance around at the reception," Nick replied. "Ok so who am I teamed up with," Greg said. "With me if it's ok with you," Langston replied. "Its kool lets whip Nick and Matt's asses," Greg said. They got into their cars and went to the bowling alley. It didn't take them long it was only a 20 minute drive.

By lunch time Greg and Langston won the first round of bowling. They stop playing bowling to get them some lunch. After they finished eating their lunch they went back to bowling. The second game could be the win for Greg and Langston. It was a close game between them but Greg and Langston won the game. "Is that the time?" Nick said while looking at his watch. "Yeah it is," Langston replied. "I can't believe we lost so unfair," Matt said. "Though they were close games," Greg replied. "We might want to get going its an hour's drive to get to The Chism House in Reno," Nick said. "Ok," Greg replied. They got up and went to their cars. They took the hour's drive to The Chism House. When they arrive it was 5:30 pm. They parked their cars and went inside. They headed to the groom's room.

"It looks like my dress arrived safe," Lily said. Lily's dress was hanging off the door in the room. "Yeah it did," Sara replied. Lily went first in getting her hair and make up done. "So what hairstyle are you going for Lily?" Katy asked. "Umm….a simple up-do with a side part pulled back from the face loosely," Lily replied. "That's a good choice. I have to say you will look stunning after I'm done with you," Katy said. "How about you guys get ready while I'm getting my hair and make up done," Lily said. "That's a great idea," Emily replied. "Yeah it beats waiting for your turn," Catherine said. "I know right," Sara added in.

Catherine, Emily, and Sara grabbed their bride's maid dresses. They went into the changing rooms. Lily went with pastel colors and strapless for the bride's maid dresses. Lily knew she couldn't just choose one bride's maid so she had chosen all three of them. When they came out of the changing rooms they helped each other to zip up the back of the dresses. "Thanks for helping," Emily said. "No problem," Sara replied. "Wow look at you three. All three of you look stunning," Lily said. "Thanks," Catherine replied. "You must knew that blue was my favorite color," Emily said. "Yep I know you too well," Lily replied.

"I don't look too bad in pink," Sara said. "I think I look good in orange," Catherine said. Lily gave a little chuckle. "Ok Lily your hair is done. So what kind of eye shadow look are you going for?" Katy said. "A smoky look," Lily replied. Katy went to work on Lily's make up. Catherine, Sara, and Emily got their high heels on. When they were done putting on their shoes Lily was done. Katy did her magic on Lily. "Who's next?" Katy asked. "Me," Emily replied. Emily sat down in the chair. "I'm going to get my dress on," Lily said. Lily grabs her wedding dress off the door. She went into the changing room.

After Lily was done in the changing room she came out. "I need help with the back," Lily said. Catherine went to help Lily to zip up the back. "Thanks Catherine," Lily said. "No problem," Catherine replied. Lily got her shoes on. She also put on her tiara and veil. After Emily was done with her hair and make up Sara was next. Lily was pacing around the room. "Lily are you okay?" Catherine asked. "Yeah just a little nervous," Lily replied. "Don't be it will go smoothly," Emily said. "Do you know your vows?" Catherine asked. "I know it by heart. Once I see Greg at the altar I think I will be okay," Lily replied. Catherine was last getting her hair and make up done.

Everybody was done getting their hair and make up done. Then there was a knock on the door. "Who is it?" Catherine asked. "It's Grissom," Grissom replied. Catherine let Grissom into the room. "Its time," Grissom said. "Thank you for doing this," Lily said. "I was glad you asked me," Grissom replied. "You guys have to go before me," Lily said. "We know," they said. They went before Lily. The music cued for Lily to come out. "Are you ready?" Grissom asked. "Ready as I will ever be," Lily replied. Lily linked arms with Grissom as he guided her.

When they got into the room Greg looked for his tux. Greg went into the changing room. When he came out he put on fresh pair of socks on. "You guys want to start getting ready," Greg said. "We know," Nick replied. "Make sure you look decent Matt," Langston said. "Hey I always look decent," Matt said in defense. Nick and Langston grab their tuxes and went into the changing room. While Matt waited he brushed his teeth and hair. He made sure he had deodorant on. Before Greg button up his shirt he also put deodorant on. Then he buttoned his shirt up.

Greg made sure he brushed his teeth. He put on cologne on. He fixed his bow tie then put on his jacket. Nick and Langston came out of the changing room. Then Matt went into the changing room. Nick and Langston freshen up. Greg got his shoes on. "I just hope Matt doesn't take all day," Nick said. "Ye of little faith," Grissom said coming into the room. "Hey Grissom," Greg said. "Hey Greg just stopping by let y'all know it is about start soon," Grissom replied. "Thanks for the heads up," Nick said. "Good luck Greg. I'll make sure Lily gets to you safe," Grissom said.

"Thanks Grissom," Greg replied. "Well I better get going Lilly will be expecting me. After all I'm walking her down the isle," Grissom replied. Grissom left the room. Matt came out of the changing room. Matt made sure he had everything on. "About time the wedding is about to start soon," Nick said jokingly. "Hey at least I look decent," Matt replied. Greg looked into the mirror to make sure his hair looked decent. "It's time to go," Langston reminded them. "Ok one final check," Greg said. Greg did one final check to make sure he had everything he needed. They headed out of the room.

The wedding was outside. Greg looked outside and saw everyone they invited to the wedding. Nick, Matt, and Langston went ahead of Greg. Then Greg made appearance. "Hey calm down she will come," Nick whispered. "I am calm I'm just excited," Greg replied.

The flower girl appeared. She started to throw flowers. Not long after the flower girl Catherine, Sara, and Emily started walking down the isle. They got into place and waited for Lily to make an appearance. Then the music started to play. Lily and Grissom came though the double doors. Lily was breath taken by the scene. She had a fairy tale wedding. Lily loved Japanese cherry blossom trees. Only that the sunset in the background made it perfect for Lily.

When Lily spotted Greg she got weak in the knees. Lily heard people saying she looked beautiful in her dress when she walked by. Lily got to the altar and Grissom took his seat. Greg took Lily's hands. The preacher started to speak. "Today we are gathered here to witness the bonding of these two people. They have written their own vows I've given them the chance now," the preacher said. "I will always love you and cherish you through thick and thin. No matter what we go through I will always be there. I will be here when you need a shoulder to cry on or even when you need someone to talk to when you going through problems. Through sickness and health. I will always cherish every single second we have together. I'm so glad today when I call you my wife instead fiancé. I promise to love you and cherish you to the day I die," Greg said while smiling.

"I knew the first time I saw you that we were meant to be together. You were there with me when I went through my darkest hour you never gave up on me. You are the most amazing guys that I love. I'm the luckiest woman in the world to have you in my life. You are the most loving and caring person. And I'm proud to call you my geek. I promise to love you and be there till the day that I die. Also I promise to cook you the best damn meals you ever eaten," Lily replied. There were chuckles in the crowd. The preacher nodded to the people who had the rings to give them to Lily and Greg.

"Now Greg do you take Lily to be your wife as long as you live," the preacher asked. "I do," Greg replied while sliding the ring on Lily's finger. "Now Lily do you take Greg to be your husband as long as you live," the preacher asked. "I do," Lily replied while putting the ring on Greg's finger. "Now I pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride," the preacher said. They kissed each other. The music started again they went to the reception. Everybody started to dance and have fun.

The Dj stopped the music. It was time for Greg and Lily to have their dance. So the Dj calls them to the dance floor. The Dj started to play "So Close" by Jon McLaughlin. Lily and Greg started to dance together. After the song was over everybody join on the dance floor. Lily and Greg enjoyed each others company. Nick was dancing near Greg and Lily. "Hey Nick do you remember the bet was made," Greg said. Lily had a confused look on her face. "What bet?" Lily asked. "The bet we made when we were bowling," Greg replied. "Oh man I was trying to forget about it," Nick said. "Deal is a deal," Greg said.

Nick went to find Matt. When Nick found Matt he was dancing with a hot chick. "Please don't tell me we still have to do it," Matt said. "Yep," Nick replied. "I will be back," Matt said to the chick. Nick and Matt find a safe place to put their jackets. "I think they are going to do it," Greg said. Then Nick and Matt took their shirts off and started to dance. Lily and Greg busted into laughter. "I can't believe you got my brother to do that," Lily said. After a few minutes dancing with their shirts off they put their shirts back on.

"We have to go home soon to pack for out honeymoon," Greg said. "So we are leaving tonight?" Lily asked. "Yeah," Greg replied. "So where are we going to?" Lily asked. "We are going to Hawaii. I knew you always wanted to see Hawaii," Greg replied. Lily was in heaven being with Greg. Before they had to leave they said goodbye to everyone at the reception. "Are you ready to go?" Greg asked. "Yeah I am," Lily replied. They got into Lily's car and took the hour's drive back home. Greg parked the car and went inside with Lily. "Can you help me unzip the back please," Lily asked.

"Yeah," Greg replied. Greg unzipped the back of the dress. "Thanks," Lily said. Lily carefully took off the dress and hung it up. Lily also took off the high heels and put them away. She put the tiara and veil up. Lily put on a shirt and sweatpants. Greg and Lily found their traveling bags and packed. "How long are we staying in Hawaii?" Lily asked. "2 weeks," Greg replied. Lily packed for 2 weeks. Lily put on fresh socks and grab some sneakers. "Are you ready to go?" Greg asked. "Yep I'm ready," Lily said. They packed their bags into one care and went to the airport. Greg parked the car. They got out and got their bags. Greg and Lily got their tickets and boarded the airplane.
