Chapter 20: Wedding
It's easy to understand love at first sight, but how do we explain love after two people have been looking at each other for years?
Alice's check list for the wedding was done...she had triple checked everything and everyone.
Seeing as Jake was and had been my bestfriend since who knows when, I had asked him if he could be my man of honor. Quil was really offended.
«Listen up bud. I'm really flattered that you asked, but I'm the godfather to your first kid. Just let Quil be you man of honor. Being a best man for you is more then enough" He smiled.
I told that Jake had said no to be my 'man of honor' and if he would like to be it instead.
"Hell yeah I would! Yeah,no..this will be great man!" He grinned and gave me a hug before he walked away.
About 10 minutes later he returned.
"Dude..that speech thing..do I really need to do that?" He looked hopeful, hopeful to not doing it.
"Jupp, no way out of it." I chuckled.
Callie was sleeping when I came home. Kenyon was awake but quiet in his bed, he saw me and reached out for me. I picked him up and went to see if Ellie was awake or sleeping.
Ellie was drawing something. A good thing she was wearing her Pjs.
"where you been at?" she wondered.
"I've been working on something. Tomorrow morning, when you wake up go down stairs and call Leah. Just say your ready. She'll pick you up and you'll know then what I've been working on"
"Hm....okey." She turned of the light on her desk and walk over to her bed, when she got over to it she walk on it and stood there expecting her night hug.
I embraced the short little girl. Then she laid down and closed her eyes.
"Night Elisha, sweet dreams" I bent down and kissed her forehead.
"Night Embry" she yawned, I turned off the light on my way out.
I looked down at my son who was in my arms, he beamed with a three teeth in his mouth.
I couldn't help but chuckle and then a smell hit me.
He joined me in the shower since it was the easiest way to clean him.
We both got clean and he got a new diaper. I held him while he finished a bottle of milk and slowly fell asleep. I laid him carefully down in the cradle and watched him for a few minutes before I decided he was sound asleep.
Once I was in my own bed with Callie right next to me, it didn't take a long time before she took the arm closest to her and pulled herself closer to me, she ended up halfway on my chest.
I had my eyes closed, for what felt like five minutes when a cry came from Kenyon's room, I waited to check if it was just a one-time cry or a full-frontal outburst.
Outburst...
"Take him in here..I know it's wrong to always let him get his will, but it will shut him up." Callie kissed my cheek and pushed me out of the bed.
I got the boy out of his bed and into mine and Call's bed. Kenyon actually squiled when he knew he was in it.
He moved a bit around before sleeping in between us.
Callie's POV
(Perfect -Fairground Attraction)
I woke up when I noticed that my bed empty of a baby and man. I took my robe and walked down to the kitchen.
Maybe Embry was so kind that he took the kids today, I really hope so....
"mmmm....coffee" I said aloud all to myself. Since no one had answerd when I called out names, I assumed that Embry really had taken Kenyon and Elisha out.
(Ain't no other man – Christina Aguilera)
I was just done with a long and comfortable shower when Sue, Emily, Kim, Claire, Anna and Alice bursted in the front door and took me by my arms.
"What the hell are you guys doing?"
"You have to get ready, you got an event to go too" Kim said as she held the towel that was around my body up , so I wouldn't walk around naked.
"Did you shave? You gotta look your BEST" Alice asked
"not that it is any of your business, but yes I did" I did not like this, I had a feeling I wouldn't like this event either.
Kim and Claire disappeared for a few moment and came back with what looked like 30 bags and then some more.
"All that isn't just for me?" I said, it felt like my jaw had loosened.
"Nope, this is ours, your stuff is still out in the car." Emily beamed.
"What kind of event is this?" I looked at them for answers, but no one answered. So I puffed and felt like I should cross my arms, but I didn't.
"Stop pouting, go to the bathroom and put on what I left for you there" Alice pulled me along.
"I'm going, I'm going" I walked in to the bathroom and saw the strapless corset, a thong all white.
Oh, wow..they really thing I'll wear that? I know that of Embry sees this..wait, does Embry know about this event?
I put the "clothing" on and walked back to MY bedroom, it now looked like a bombed whore house, and the little time I had used on putting on the so-called lingerie.
The women that was in there was now putting on some purple dresses, Kim handed me a wardrobe bag.
"It's yours" She said and smiled.
I took the bag and looked carefully at her and at the rest of them, they all watched me, Anna held her hands over her mouth while jumping a little.
I unzipped the bag and saw a white dress. A mid weight silk tricotine, Sleeveless silhouette, Fitted bodice with ruching at center front, full skirt with allover pleats, Removable self-tie, Back zip.
"But...I'm getting married today?" my mouth opend and closed several times, I had no idea if I should smile or cry.
"Sorry for the fallowing words,but Jesus,fucking christ. Why the fuck didn't you guys tell me, is this stupid idea Embry's?" I shook my head.
"Jupp, his idea, now put on the dress, we got hair and make-up to do." Sue smiled.
So I did, my hair went turned into a half updo, I even got some curls into the whole thing.
(Sweet child o' mine – taken by trees)
I arrived down by the beach and was "shoushed" into a tent, where Elisha who was dressed in a tiered chiffo dress, the dress itself was white it had a purple bow around waist, her hair was curled up and it had flowers on it.
She beamed for a second and then she squiled out "Callie, you look pretty, ", and I swear I could hear the men not far away going "wohoo" and a few howls after Ellie's saying. She sat down and Anna did some thing before she was told to go outside to Emily.
It didn't take a long time to hear a voice say "me, momma". Kenyon must have managed to run away from his dad or whomever took care of him, cause he looked really happy with seeing me and being where he was.
"momma" he ran his baby steps over to where I was sitting, Alice finishing the last things. He sat on my lap while Alice finshed whatever she needed to finish.
Elisha Pov
(more boys I meet – Carrie Underwood)
I was dressed in the prettiest dress I had seen. Leah and Alice played around with my hair and I even got to wear some make-up.
Callie was ...stunning, jupp that word said it all.
Now where is Emily..
I found her and the rest of the kids including her two boys, juck...they really do annoy me.
Sam was there too, so I stood next to him. It was a safe place to stand since I wanted to look as clean as possible. Playtime was later, so I started to hum on a tune.
"Is Callie done yet" Emily asked me.
"Don't know, I was just told to go and stay next to you" I beamed.
"I'll go check" she kissed Sam's cheek and walked off.
"So, don't you wanna play?"
"No offense, Sam, but your sons are in on the game so no,thanks for asking thou" I folded my hands.
"none taken Ellie" he chuckled after that.
Someone called Sam's name and he disappeared.
Oh, crap....
Jr and Emil walked over to me and looked me up and down.
"You look like one of those very girlie dolls." Jr said
" No, she looks like a wannabe princess" Emil said
"You boys don't know how to tell a girl that she looks good. You'll end up live with your parents for the rest of your life" I pouted.
"people who pout are liars" Emil said raising an eyebrow.
" No they're not" I crossed my arms
"Are too"
"Not"
"Too"
"Arrgh!!" I stomped my foot "why do you boys bother to talk to me anyway?..you're all the same stupid dummies anyway" I turned to walkaway.
"Jr. thinks your the prettiest girl here" Emil said, and it made me stop.
"what? So that's why you pick on me?" I shook my head and really walked away this time.
That song is so right...the more boys I meet the more I love dogs
I saw Leah and walked over.
"Leah, are all boys stupid dummies?" I looked at her, wondering if that was why she didn't have a boyfriend, like it seemed everyone else had. If that was the case then I would be just like her.
"Jupp, but don't let them get to you cause then they'll only get worse" she winked.
"Is that why you don't got a boyfriend?" I asked.
"Among things, yes" she sighed.
"Well, then I'm gonna do just the same as you, instead of a boyfriend I'll live alone and be cool about it..I might get a dog thou" I crossed my arms and looked at everything that was happening.
Embry's POV
(Love found a voice, & All I'm running for – Alejandro Fuentes)
I stood where I was suppose to be, my mind hoping that this would be a good, no make that a perfect day.
"Show time" Quil whisperd, happy to be my best made of honor. Jacob shook his head.
Some of the other imprints came walking down the 'aisle', dressed in a purple dress. Quil "wow'ed", Elisha held Kenyon's hand and walked down with him. He pointed at
me and smiled.
Callie started walking down after that. I felt numb all over.
I walked down and met her by the chairs closest to us.
"You look magnificent" I told her.
" You look rather dashing yourself" she smirked.
...and the vows are.....
"Embry, from the first moment I arrived here in La Push, I didn't think I'd ever find someone like you, who would love me, cherish me, and care for me like no one else had. The day I lost everything , I thought I'd also lost my ability to love. But, you changed that and, for that, I am forever grateful. I promise, now, to love you just as much, if not more so, than you have loved me, these past few months, and I hope that, even after forever has passed, you will continue to love me, as you do now. I love you, Embry Call."
I had a hard time trying not to fell a few tears, but my eyes were wet that was for sure. So I cleared my troat before I said my own vows.
"Callie, from the first moment I met you, I knew I loved you. From the second I woke up to the moment I laid down at night, I needed you to be in my arms, and to hear the soft note of your heart lulling me to sleep. My love for you...there is no comparison, neither here, on earth, or anywhere else. And I am glad that we have forever to share that love, even if, after forever, I will still love you, more and more, each day, the same as I love you now. I love you, too, Callie Owens."
…....... "you may now kiss the bride". And I did, Callie giggled, and everyone else cheered.
A/N: And we now have Mr and Mrs. Embry Call (jippii).
And my parents came home :D
