Three Years Later

"I still don't see why we invited them." Lucy huffed, crossing her arms and grunting as Erza and Lisanna worked together to tighten her corset. "They eloped! I wanted to be at their wedding!"

"You know that those two would have shown up anyway," Yukino - no one could bring themselves to call her Cygnus, even after three years - laughed, tickling the blonde's face with an empty brush. "They've been down ever since you decided to move back to Fairy Tail."

"Yeah, well, they've got each other and the mastership of Sabertooth." Lucy scrunched her nose up and blew at the brush to get it away from her face.

"It's quite interesting how they decided to share the title of Master." Erza commented, as she and Lisanna got to the bottom of the corset.

"I think it's fitting." Lisanna smiled as the tied the laces of Lucy's white dress snugly, tucking them into the rest of the fabric to hide them. "Not only are they the first same sex couple in Fiore, but they're the first co-Masters of a guild. It's also wonderful how Sabertooth is so proud of them; the guild hasn't lost a single member since their marriage."

"They've gained members, actually," Yukino said, happily. "Sting is so proud that he never shuts up. Sometimes Loke looks like he wants to slap him."

"A lot has changed here, but also in the Spirit World," Lucy finally relented. "Yukino, you're so much more outgoing, and Sting has mellowed. It's quite incredible."

"Glad to see you're perking up." Levy stepped out of the bathroom, holding the back of her bridesmaid dress closed.

"Let me get that, Levy-san," Wendy hopped up and walked over to the bluenette, zipping up her dress. "There."

"That's everyone, then," Lucy turned to face her bridesmaids. Yukino, Erza, Lisanna, Levy, and Wendy smiled back at her, all looking beautiful in their soft gray dresses, which were not unlike the groom's eyes. Their counterpart, the groomsmen (Sting, Jellal, Natsu, Gajeel, and Romeo), were wearing black and white suits with ties of the same color. Laxus was beyond embarrassed that the color scheme revolved around him, but had been told in no uncertain terms by the bridesmaids to get over it, since it made Lucy happy.

Absently, the blonde touched the inside of her wrist. She had gotten a permanent tattoo of Sabertooth's mark there, since her Fairy Tail mark was once again on her hand. She had taken to rubbing the tattoo whenever she was nervous, since it had been protection for her during her hiatus from Fairy Tail.

"Don't be nervous, Lu-chan." Levy noticed immediately, like always. "We're all here. Now that Rufus and Rogue are here, everything's complete. The family is all together."

"Yeah..." Lucy smiled at her bridesmaids, then opened up her arms to initiate a big group hug. "We all are."

The wedding between Lucy Heartfilia of Fairy Tail, a former heiress, and Laxus Dreyar, the master of Fairy Tail, was one to remember. Every guild in a hundred kilometer radius turned up, plus the queen, Hisui, and her fiance, the king-to-be who hailed from the country to the east of Fiore. All twelve of the Zodiac gates attended, plus the Celestial Spirit king, who brought most of the silver gates along.

Of course Fairy Tail knew how to throw a party, but when you mixed in heavenly beings and Sabertooth...well, the celebration lasted for nearly a month; long enough for Laxus and Lucy to have their honeymoon, come back, and announce that they were expecting a child in the next seven months. That sparked another party. Then came the marriages of Jellal and Erza, Gray and Juvia, and Levy and Gajeel in the next eighteen months. Basically, life at Fairy Tail was one huge party for three years...

And not one person would have it any other way.

Well...this is it. It's not the grand ending I wanted, but...I'm happy. Not only is this my favorite thing I've ever written, it's the first fic I've ever completely finished. I had plenty of ups and downs, plenty of times I just wanted to quit, but all of you encouraged me and made me want to keep writing. If it wasn't for all you, No Regrets never would have happened. I am thankful for every single one of you who has followed this story, favorited, commented, or just read. I love you.
