Chapter 37.-The Reception-
An hour later: "Ladies and Gentleman" Doc said. "It gives me great pride to introduce Mr. and Mrs. Lightning McQueen." The room bust into noise as Lightning and Sally drove thought the door. They took their places at the main table. As custom Cliff as the father of the bride led the toasts. "As I look at my daughter, I can't help but reflect on all the years I was lucky enough to watch her grow and become the beautiful woman she is today. She captured my heart on the day she was born, and I became more and more in awe of her as the years passed by. She's my little girl, my princess, my ray of sunlight, and no matter what her age, she'll always be those things to me. But today as I watched her marry a wonderful man, I'm filled with pride and am confident that she and Lightning are about to embark on a wonderful journey filled with the love and happiness that can only come as man and wife. I ask you to join me to today in congratulating Sally and Lightning and wishing them all the best for a long and happy life together." Mercedes followed him. "Nobody can promise you cloudless days. Nobody can promise you, not to weep at least once, nor that they will not know the sadness ... But we can promise you, if you keep your love strong and passionate, if you are wise and patient, you will overcome every difficult moment, which will face you throughout your life together!"
Riley immediately followed. "I have two toasts one in Irish and one in English. Go raibh tú daibhir i mí-áidh. Agus saibhir i mbeannachtaí, Go mall ag déanamh namhaid, go luath a déanamh carad, Ach saibhir nó daibhir, go mall nó go luath, Nach raibh ach áthas agat Ón lá seo amach. (May you be poor in misfortune, Rich in blessings, Slow to make enemies, quick to make friends, But rich or poor, quick or slow, May you know nothing but happiness, From this day forward.) And my second: May there be work for your tires to do, May your purse hold a coin or two, May the sun always shine on your window pane, May a rainbow be certain to follow each rain May the tire of a friend be always near you, Sláinte!" Skye followed "Be together to the very end, make sure there isn't any barriers between you two. I wish you, the infinite joy to draw your path together, the true friends to be with you until the end and happy to accompany you forever. We wish you a lot of love with which to make your life complete! And now my Son, take your tire and place your tire over Sally's. Now, remember this moment and cherish it... because this will be the last time you'll ever have the upper tire!" The room broke into laughter. Finally Sally and Lightning said their toasts.
Sally stood up and said her toast "Your life and my life flow into each other as wave flows into wave, and unless there is peace and joy and freedom for you, there can be no real peace or joy or freedom for me. To see reality - not as we expect it to be but as it is - is to see that unless we live for each other and in and through each other, we do not really live very satisfactorily; that there can really be life only where there really is, in just this sense, love. Your words dispel all of the care in the world and make me happy...They are as necessary to me now as sunlight and air...Your words are my food, your breath my wine - you are everything to me. My husband, my companion, held most dear, my soul, my other self, and my inward friend. I know what love is, and it is because of you." A few awes could be heard, and finally Lightning, Sally knew that it wasn't going to be long, but she knew that he had been working on it for weeks. "To love a person means to agreeing to grow old with her. May we love as long as we live, and live as long as we love. My bounty is as boundless as the sea, my love as deep; the more I give, the more I have, for both are infinite. Here is to loving, to romance, to us. May we travel together through time. We alone count as none, but together we're one. When the heart is full, the tongue cannot speak." Everyone clinked their glasses together and dinner was served.
After dinner the reception was in full swing. Music provided by Radiator Springs own Devon Johnston (the turner DJ.) Everybody was having a great time. Sally removed her veil, but left the tetra on. Lightning had his traditional first dance with Sally. After that Doc stepped in and began dancing with Sally. Lightning drove to the side of the dance floor and took a sip of his drink. "Congratulations Bud!" Mater said, driving up. "Thanks, Mater," Lightning said, smiling at his best friend. "You're welcome," Mater said, grinning his buck-toothed grin. Soon it was time to cut the cake. "Before you cut the cake" Flo said "I have something for you." She wheeled out a small platform and took off the cover. There on the tray was a small chocolate cake with yellow and orange icing. It had blue and green sprinkles, with yellow lightning bolts on it. Flo even had sparklers lit on it. The cake had 'this is what Lightning thinks what a wedding cake should look like.' written on it. It was the cake that Lightning playfully ask for when they were finalizing plans for the 'real' wedding cake. Lightning laughed at it "It does look stupid." Lightning said "Doesn't it." Lightning and Sally had their pictures taken with it. Then they moved over to the real wedding cake. Tire in tire they cut the cake. Lightning picked up a piece and smiled evilly at Sally. "Don't even think about it, Stickers!" Sally warned as she caught his line of thought. Lightning gently fed the cake to her. Sally picked up her piece if cake and fed it to him, stuffing the whole thing in his mouth. Lightning was able to chew and swallow it without choking.
Sally held up her bouquet. "Look what's next" All the single ladies gathered around Sally. She turned around and gave a hardy toss over her roof. Shouts of "It's mine!" rang out. It was Sophia who caught it. She looked at Doc wishfully, he just smiled at her. "My turn" Lightning said. All the bachelors gathered around him. He reached under Sally. He found the garter belt and almost pulled it off; he stopped when he reached her tire. He leaned in with his face and pulled it off with his teeth, cat calls and wolf whistles filled the room. Lightning flipped the garter belt high into the air. It sailed over the bachelors hoods and laded around Sarge's antenna, the least likely of all the bachelors that would get marred. Sagre was mobbed by the guys. There was some pushing and shoving going on, but it was good natured. In the end it was Bane who won the prize. He paraded around with it and then gave it back to Lightning. "Keep it" Lightning said. "It'll bring you good luck when you get married." Bane is getting married in a six weeks. "No, it's yours" Bane said "Besides; I'll have a hard time explaining why I have a garter belt in my luggage." "If your sure Bane" Lightning said "I'll give it to Sally, she just put in with her other wedding items." "You're a kinky motherfucker" Bane playfully said. "Turn it into a sex toy." Lightning just laughed. Other than Doc, Bane knew him the best, he was Lightning's best friend in high school. The music started up again and everyone headed to the dance floor.
About an hour later: Lightning saw Sally run to the bathroom. He followed her, and he heard her getting sick. He entered "Sweetheart, are you all right?" "No! Not alright I'm vomiting my pistons out!" Sally snapped. "Do want me get Doc?" Lightning asked "Yes, but don't make a seen." Sally said remembering how he acted when Chick attacked her. Lightning quietly got Doc and he led him back to the bathroom. "Sally, can I come in?" Doc asked at the doorway. "Yes" she croaked. "Rookie tells me you been vomiting for a few days" Doc said. "Actually it's been all week" Sally confessed. "Some days I'm fine and some days I'm sicker than a dog." Doc quickly examined her. "I can't find anything that immediately sticks out" He said. "How much have you had to drink tonight?" "Not much, the toasts and I've had two drinks after that" Sally said. "We can still go on our honeymoon?" "Yes, but take it easily and no more alcoholic drinks for you tonight." Doc said "I think stress has made your stomach a little upset. Just stick to juice or water for rest of the night. I'll see you when you get back." "Thanks Doc" Lightning said as Doc left the bathroom. "Anytime Kid" He said. "Light, I'm sorry I snapped at you" Sally said. "Can you forgive me?" "No… because there nothing to be forgiven for." Lightning said "You were barfing so you had the right to snap at me." "I love you" Sally said and kissed him. "Blah, that's the first time I've ever regretted kissing you" Lightning said. "You taste like barf, cake and stomach acid, Blah." "Well I did just vomit." Sally said "And you didn't give me time to rinse out my mouth." Sally went to the sink a rinsed out her mouth and got a small drink of water. "Feel better?" Lightning asked. "Yeah a little" Sally responded. "Come on, the guests will be wondering where we went" Lightning said. Sally and Lightning rejoined the party.
