Chapter 21- I do

'Valkyrie, take three deep breathes' china demanded taking hold of her shoulders. Valkyrie nodded and took three breathes while Tanith tugged at her dress and fetched Valkyrie her bouquet.

'Oh hell' Valkyrie muttered

'What is it?' Tanith asked handing her her bouquet.

'I'm about to get married Tanith' Valkyrie said.

'Yeah, but to like, the hottest guy in the world!'

Valkyrie had to giggle at this

China rolled her eyes

'Four year olds' she muttered and then louder, 'come on Val! Skulduggery's waiting out there!'

Valkyrie took another deep breath. Somebody tapped her on the shoulder, ghastly. He grinned at her.

'Good luck kid' he smiled and pulled her in for a hug. Valkyrie thought it would be a brief and awkward hug but he seemed happy for them and he hugged her for a while and then grinned. it wasn't awkward at all. Ghastly made his way to his seat. He was meant to be best man but he had said he was to shy so the best man was….- Fletcher appeared out of nowhere and grinned at her.

'You look gorgeous Val' he smiled

Valkyrie grinned at him

'Thanks, nice suit' Valkyrie commented blushing at his compliment

'The best man has to look his best' Fletcher shrugged

Valkyrie rolled her eyes

Fletcher pulled her in for a long hug and then kissed her cheek and blushed. She laughed and he took her arm as the music started.

Because her father and mother couldn't be there, her father could not take her down the isle, so Fletcher agreed to do it. She saw a small tear roll down his cheek and she wiped it away and squeezed his hand. Her two bridesmaids, china and Tanith walked down the isle first and then Fletcher winked at her and they started into the church. All of a sudden, her nerves left her, she could see him, skulduggery was standing at the alter in his tuxedo, his dark hair wild and carefully untamed, his beautiful eyes were gleaming and he was grinning at her. She smiled back. This was it. All she had to do was say her vows and kiss him and they were each others forever

She is so beautiful skulduggery thought, too beautiful for words.

Fletcher winked at her again and placed her hand in skulduggery's. She smiled at him and caught the tear as it rolled down his cheek. The rest went by in a blur. They said their vows and then they were at the precious two words.

'and Valkyrie Cain?' do you take skulduggery pleasant to be your lawfully wedded husband?' Valkyrie felt the tear come down her cheek.

'I do' she smiled

'And skulduggery pleasant? Do you take Valkyrie Cain to be your lawfully wedded wife?'

Skulduggery smiled and nodded

'I do' he said softly

'Then you may now kiss the bride' the minister smiled and skulduggery put his arms around Valkyries waist and Valkyrie flung her arms, bouquet and all, around his neck and he kissed her. Then there was a roar of applaud and cheering and Valkyrie tossed her bouquet and ghastly caught it and Tanith blushed when he looked over to her and grinned. Valkyrie broke the kiss and pressed her forehead to his and they hugged and Valkyrie winked at Fletcher sitting in the front row with her baby Olivia perched on his lap clapping and laughing. And then skulduggery grabbed her hand and they ran down the isle hands intertwined laughing and they got outside where they stopped to kiss again.

Lol! Hope that was good! I need ideas for a honeymoon!!! Plz review!
