Just A Kiss Chapter 55: I Do Part 1
Taylor's POV:
"Today's the day." I said to myself in the mirror.
All my closest family and friends were downstairs waiting for me. Lilly, Val, my mom, dad, and brother.
I quickly got in the shower and had my mom help me in my dress.
"You look beautiful." My mom whispered.
"Could you do my hair?" I asked her.
"Of course." She said.
She put the back up slightly.
"I realized you need something old and blue so I have this blue diamond pin that's been in the family forever generations." She said pinning up my hair.
"Thank you." I whispered.
"Are you ready?" She asked.
"Yeah." I smiled.
I walked down stairs and was helped into the limo.
I've waited 8 years for this day to come. Now it's here right before my eyes.
There's no doubt in my mind that I'm ready to marry Kendall. I'd be that one girl on the happiest day of her life.
It seemed like just yesterday I was 16 and just started dating Kendall. But in reality that was 8 years ago. I think through out all my life, those 8 years were the best other than the downs of my life.
I didn't notice we we're there already. I guess thinking so much takes time away.
Before I knew it the wedding would start in 5 minutes. I was ready. Caitlyn was ready in her flower girl dress, Lilly and Valyn looked beautiful in there green dresses, and I was looking beautiful as well.
"Are you ready?" My dad asked as everyone was walking up the isle.
"Just don't let me fall." I said.
"Wouldn't think of it." He said kissing my forehead.
It was almost my turn to meet the love of my life at the end of the isle.
Kendall's POV:
I was waiting for Taylor. This was it. My favorite person in the world would be my wife.
I spotted her at the front with her father. She smiled and I smiled back.
She looked amazing. Today was her day to shine and she really was.
When she met me I whispered to her, "You look beautiful."
She blushed and smiled at me.
The pastor began speaking, "Dear friends and family, we are gathered here today to witness and celebrate the union of Taylor Marie Dotson and Kendall Tuttle Knight in marriage. Through their time together, they have come to realize that their personal dreams, hopes, and goals are more attainable and more meaningful through the combined effort and mutual support provided in love, commitment, and family; and so they have decided to live together as husband and wife.
He continued with the reading, "True marriage begins well before the wedding day, and the efforts of marriage continue well beyond the ceremony's end. A brief moment in time and the stroke of the pen are all that is required to create the legal bond of marriage, but it takes a lifetime of love, commitment, and compromise to make marriage durable and everlasting. Today you declare your commitment to each other before family and friends, your yesterdays were the path to this moment, and your journey to a future of togetherness becomes a little clearer with each new day."
Then the blessing, " Kendall and Taylor, the time has come to forget all the stress of planning this day and simply enjoy your friends and family who have gathered to spend this day with you. This group of loved ones will, likely, never be together in the same place again. Through quiet reflection and nostalgia, think about how each person has touched your life and why they are here with you today."
Then he let us say the vows we wrote for each other.
"Taylor, today will be the most important day of my life. I've never loved anyone as much as I've loved you. Sure we've had ups and downs but that's what leads us to this day. I honestly don't know how I could live without you. I promise to love you forever, whatever happens through the rest of our life." I smiled and had a few tears in my eyes.
"Kendall, I really can't describe my feelings for you. You've been my best friend forever. Your what helps me through everyday. Even the things you found out kept you even closer than before. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. If we have kids our not, I know I'll always love you." She smiled and the tears were flowing down her cheeks.
"Now for the exchanging of the rings." the pastor said.
"This ring is a token of my love. I marry you with this ring, with all that I have and all that I am" I said slipping the new ring on her finger.
She repeated and slipped a silver ring on my finger.
"Do you, Kendall Knight take Taylor Dotson as your Lawfully wedded wife?"
"I do." I smiled.
"And do you, Taylor Dotson take Kendall Knight as your lawfully wedded husband?"
"I do." She smiled back.
" I now pronounce you husband and wife. He paused. "You may now kiss the bride." Our lips connected and after 5 seconds we departed.
"Family and Friends, I present to you Mr. and Mrs. Kendall Knight."
He sent us back down the isle. I was so happy at that moment.
Next was the after party, at the Hilton Hotel. So we had to drive in a limo there. My mom, Taylor's mom, dad, and brother, Katie, Logan, Lilly, Val, James, and Carlos.
Taylor and I sat together looking into each others eyes.
No one said a word to us though.
"So now I'm Mrs. Knight." She whispered into my ear.
"Yes and you'll be a Knight for the rest of your life." I whispered and she laughed.
"So now I'm stuck with you." She smiled.
"Yeah that's how it works." I laughed.
When we got to the hotel a lot of people were already there. We got a lot of congratulations and hugs.
After eating our closest family meaning our parents and sister and brother, Lilly, and the guys had something to say.
"I've known Kendall for, as long as I can remember. He would always protect me, the nerd in all my years. He still does protect me. I know I can always trust the guy. I've known Taylor for at least 9 years when we first set our eyes on her when she was at one of our concerts. But as we all know, Kendall won her heart. But those two have always had a connection since they were little kids in kindergarten. So i congratulate them. Love you both." Logan smiled.
"Like Logan said we all had our eyes on her. I've known her for the same amount of years. Kendall's got a very special girl. I love her with all my heart. Even though I've known Kendall for a long time I'd be sure to kick his ass if he did anything to hurt her. No offense buddy." Carlos winked.
James was next, "Taylor's like a sister to me and Kendall's always been my brother. I love them both so much. It took Kendall guts to finally get to this day. I remember their first kiss. I think that's something that should be remembered forever because look where they are now."
"I may not of always been there for my baby girl, but I love her and always have. I know Kendall will treat her right. They are perfect together and even I can't doubt it." Her father smiled with tears.
"Kendall's an amazing boy. I don't know what we'd do without him. Ever since his dad past, we had it tough. Out of no where Kendall became the man instead of the 7 year old he actually was. I know it'll be tough to not see him at the apartment anymore but he'll have a great marriage." My mom sighed but smiled.
"Well I know Taylor and I met a few years ago but she's always been in my heart. Kendall will treat her right. I love them both and hope they have an amazing marriage." Her brother said.
Then Katie went, "Kendall will always be my big brother. Even if he is gone and I won't see him as much. He's always had my back. I don't know how I'd live without him. I love you big brother and congrats to both of you."
"It's been a crazy ride in the past few years. Who would of thought I'd get out her by the help of Kendall or meet my best friend. I surely didn't except to be happily married. I hope these two are happy together, which I know they are. Honestly, Kendall has found his cover girl and that's Taylor." Lilly smiled.
Then finally I had something to say, "I know I've said this so many times before but I love you Taylor and I'm glad I made it this far with you. Like Lilly said, I've found my cover girl. I remember when we were halfway there. Just us guys. Logan, Carlos, James, and I being our 15 and 16 year old selves. Look where we are now. I'm 23. Life passes before our eyes but 8 years ago was the happiest of mine. It seems like just yesterday I was falling for this girl that I thought I met for the first time, but she was by my side practically my whole life. The boys have known me for a long time but I think Taylor and I have been together for longer. When I was a kid, I use to think spiderman and cinnamon rolls were my life. But since I'm older I understand that the most important thing in my life is my cover girl." I smiled and Taylor had tears in her eyes.
I knew what I was going to do next. I had Logan, Carlos, and James follow me to the front of the huge room and by the DJ.
Grabbing a guitar and throwing some drum sticks at Logan. Then throwing to microphones at James and Carlos.
"I know you've heard this song about a million times but I thought at an event as special as this, it was well worth playing." I smiled.
"1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4!" Logan tapped on his drums and I began to strum on my acoustic guitar.
I don't know why you always get so insecure I wish you could see what I see when you're looking in the mirror And why won't you believe me when I say That to me you get more beautiful, everyday
When you're looking at the magazines And thinking that you'll never measure up You're wrong
Cause you're my cover, cover girl I think you're a superstar, yeah you are Why don't you know Yeah, you're so pretty that it hurts It's what's underneath your skin The beauty that shines within You're the only one that rocks my world My cover girl Oh, my cover girl
You walk in rainboots on a perfect summer day Somehow you always see the dark side, when everything's okay And you wear baggy clothes that camoflague your shape Whoa, but you know that I love you, just the way you're made When you're looking at the magazines And thinking that you're just not good enough You're so wrong, baby
Cause you're my cover, cover girl I think you're a superstar, yeah you are Why don't you know Yeah, you're so pretty that it hurts It's what's underneath your skin The beauty that shines within You're the only one that rocks my world My cover girl
Got a heart of gold, a perfect original Wish you would stop being so hard on yourself for once And when I see that face I'd try a thousand ways I would do anything to make you smile
I paused and started singing the next part without any instruments.
Cause you're my cover, cover girl I think you're a superstar, yeah you are Why don't you know Yeah, you're so pretty that it hurts It's what's underneath your skin The beauty that shines within You're the only one that rocks my world My cover girl Oh, my cover girl Oh, my cover girl
Whoa oh, my cover girl Whoa oh, my cover girl
I finished with the strum of my guitar and one pound of Logan's drums.
I really didn't know what to do next. But I thought back to Lilly's wedding and thought of how they cut their cake.
So I grabbed Taylor's hand to come and help.
"What are we doing exactly?" She asked.
"Just cut the cake. Like at Lilly's wedding." I said holding her hand with the knife in it.
We sliced a little piece because Taylor didn't want much.
I took a fork and put some in her mouth. She did the same.
"The cakes good, but I'm not hungry." She whispered.
"Don't eat it then." I said.
"I don't want to be rude." She blushed.
"It's fine. Not everyone has to eat the cake, not even the bride." I smiled.
We sat back down and let people eat.
More people started coming to our table to talk to us. I even got to talk to Dustin.
"Hey man, thanks for coming." I said playing with Taylor's fingers.
"Hey thanks for inviting me. Congrats you two." He smiled.
"Thanks Dustin." Taylor said.
"Dustin I'm really sorry." I said.
"Sorry for what?" He asked like he'd forgotten.
"For leaving you. I feel like now, I didn't think you were as important as Taylor. But when I was a kid I was stupid." I sighed.
"Kendall, I'm actually happy you left. Well at first. Because all you ever seemed to do was be with Taylor. Then I got the chance to be friends with Taylor, until she moved too." He said.
"I didn't know. I was I would of thought of you. Still play the guitar?" I asked.
"You bet. How's it coming for you?" He asked.
"Way better than it would of been if you didn't teach me a little of something. I think you were the only person who knew I could play guitar. Not even my mom knew. I hid it in the closet if she was coming." I chuckled.
"Then your secret finally got out." He said.
"I didn't tell anyone until later in Big Time Rush." I shrugged.
"Just like spiderman. Hiding his true identity." He chuckled.
"Hey, I am spiderman." I said making my spiderman pose.
"Yeah. Ok spiderman, put the weapons away." Taylor chuckled.
Dustin left to talk to some other people he hadn't seen in a while after we discussed a few more things.
"I can't believe you." I chuckled.
"What?" Taylor asked.
"Before today you were panicked and now your calm." I said.
"I'm not calm Kendall, I'm happy." She smiled.
"Explains why I'd rather dance than sleep..." I chuckled.
"You want to dance? Well I guess your in luck." She said.
"I'm in luck?" I asked.
Then my attention went to the DJ.
"Can we get the lovely bride and groom to have the first dance of the night?" He asked.
"Let's go." I smiled.
I took Taylor's hand and led her to the dimly lit dance floor.
Her arms wrapped around my neck and mine around her waist.
The DJ started some slow music.
The song exactly fit the setting. That song was Just A Kiss.
Lying Here With You So Close To Me It's Hard To Fight These Feelings When It Feels So Hard To Breathe Caught Up In This Moment Caught Up In Your Smile
"I like this song." Taylor whispered, her head on my chest.
"It does fit us perfectly." I smiled.
I've Never Opened Up To Anyone So Hard To Hold Back When I'm Holding You In My Arms We Don't Need To Rush This Let's Just Take It Slow
Just A Kiss On Your Lips In The Moonlight Just A Touch Of The Fire Burning So Bright No, I Don't Wanna Mess This Thing Up I Don't Wanna Push Too Far Just A Shot In The Dark That You Just Might Be The One I've Been Waiting For My Whole Life So Baby I'm Alright With Just A Kiss Goodnight
"Shot in the dark was one of your songs... Right?" She smiled.
"Yeah, it was." I whispered spinning her.
I Know That If We Give This A Little Time It'll Only Bring Us Closer To The Love We Wanna Find It's Never Felt So Real No It's Never Felt So Right
Just A Kiss On Your Lips In The Moonlight Just A Touch Of The Fire Burning So Bright No, I Don't Wanna Mess This Thing Up I Don't Wanna Push Too Far Just A Shot In The Dark That You Just Might Be The One I've Been Waiting For My Whole Life So Baby I'm Alright With Just A Kiss Goodnight
No I Don't Want To Say Goodnight I Know It's Time To Leave, But You'll Be In My Dreams Tonight Tonight Tonight
Just A Kiss On Your Lips In The Moonlight Just A Touch Of The Fire Burning So Bright No, I Don't Wanna Mess This Thing Up I Don't Wanna Push Too Far Just A Shot In The Dark That You Just Might Be The One I've Been Waiting For My Whole Life So Baby I'm Alright
Ooooh, Let's Do This Right, Just A Kiss Goodnight With A Kiss Goodnight Kiss Goodnight
When the song ended we looked into each others eyes.
"Just a kiss." She smiled.
"Just a kiss." I smiled back and leaned in.
Our lips met. It felt like my life was meeting up to this moment. The last kiss, but in retrospect the first kiss of a new beginning.
Thinking of it now, it all started with...
Just A Kiss.
