Chapter 21
Several months later...
Jeff checked his reflection in the mirror, nervously. Today was the day. Today he was going to marry his best friend, Nicholas Anthony Duval. Jeff was so nervous his hands were shaking. What if he forgot his vows? Or what if Blaine dropped the rings? What if Blair started crying in the middle of the ceremony?
"It'll all be fine, Jeff." Blaine said, noticing the panicked look in his friend's eyes. "I was just as nervous when I married Kurt, but everything will be fine I promise."
Jeff took a deep breath, and blew it out. "Thanks, Blaine. I needed that."
"No problem." Blaine said, smiling.
Jeff and Blaine walked up the aisle, and stood to wait for Nick. When Jeff saw Nick he stopped brathing. Nick looked amazing. He was dressed in a black tux. His was wearing his hair natural, just the way Jeff liked it. His eyes, Jeff swore he'd never seen Nick's eyes sparkle as much as they were right now. And his smile, could light up the world. As he walked down the aisle Nick mouthed;
"I love you."
Jeff's smile grew, and he mouthed back; "I love you too."
When Nick reached the end of the aisle, the minister started.
"Dearly, beloved we are gathered here in the sight of these witnesses to join in marriage these fine young men. Jeff and Nick have decided they are willing to commit themselves to each other in marriage. A bonding that is supposed to be forever. They have written their vows for each other. Jeff, you start."
Jeff nodded, and cleared his throat.
"Nicky, we have been best friends since we were thirteen years old. You always knew that you were gay. It took a while for me to come around. Shortly, after we started dating you told me you'd had a crush on me since we were fourteen. And I just wanted to thank-you for waiting for me, Nicky. I love you more than life itself. Before we had Blair, you were the one person I wanted to have in my life forever. You have given me everything I ever wanted and more. You except my flaws, and you make me a better person, Nicky. And I could never imagine my life without you."
"Alright, Nick." The minister said.
Nick wiped the tears from his eyes.
"Jeffy, ever since I first met you I have always thought you were my guardian angel. We met when you saved me from a bunch of guys who were going to beat me up. You accepted me for who I was. You always have been, and always will be my angel, Jeff. You save me everyday, just by smiling at me, just by being there. The fact that you want to spend forever with me is over whelming. You've given me everything I ever wanted, and everything I didn't know I wanted. You always have been my one and only, Jeffy, fearlessly and forever."
"You may now kiss the groom." Nick and Jeff kissed, sweetly.
"I love you, Mr. Sterling-Duval." Jeff mumbled against Nick's lips.
"Same to you, Mr. Sterling-Duval.", Nick said. They smiled at each other, and walked back up the aisle.
