Divided We Fall

Chapter 30

"Gran would be proud of you, Marty. She really would have been proud of you," Adrian said softly and held her hand. She smiled at him as they started walking down the aisle, to where Bucky and the priest awaited them.

Bucky waited for Martine nervously, as everyone came down the aisle, one pairing at a time, until it was just a few left.

The flower girls were behind Martine, and consisted of Cassie, along with Maria Hill's daughter, Madeleine. They all smiled at them warmly.

"Nervous?" Steve asked amused. Peter took photos of them all with his camera. They heard piano music playing, and the guests stood up.

"A little, Stevie," Bucky admitted quietly. Steve squeezed his shoulder comfortingly, before they all saw Martine walking down the aisle, with Adrian walking her down.

She was beautiful.

Her long blonde hair was half up and half down. Her dress was elegant, and the train moved beautifully behind her. The sun shimmered through the glass painted windows of the chapel.

Her dress hugged her body, and was made of cotton and lace, emphasizing her curves. Adrian gave her to Bucky and kissed his sister's cheek lovingly.

"Take care of her, Bucky," Adrian said quietly, and handed Martine's right hand to his metal hand. He took it tightly, as they saw Carla attempting to enter.

Shuri and Natasha quickly escorted her out along with Wade. He was all too happy to scare the living fucking daylights out of the bitch who made Martine's life a misery.

"Miss Pierce, you were warned to stay away from your son and daughter, and now you have broken the law," Brett said sternly. Carla stared at him.

"I'm their mother!"

"More like womb donor. Now go away, bitch, otherwise you'll end up being tied up and gagged in the middle of trailer in God knows where, with cockroaches swarming around you and ruining your expensive Chanel and Dior suits, and dresses. You can leave now," Wade said sternly.

Carla swallowed. Rogue, who had some of Wanda's powers due to Wanda allowing her to touch her physically, used her fear manipulation on her.

Carla screamed and fled the church, screaming like an old hysterical woman and fled the scene. She was ranting about the devil possessing children.

Martine sighs and shakes her head, while Bucky squeezes her hand. She smiles at him, and the priest started to speak. She still couldn't believe this was happening.

"You look handsome," she mouthed to him.

"You look beautiful," he replies, squeezing her hand again. She smiles, letting out a deep breath.

She was actually getting married, holy shit.

It seemed to go by in a heartbeat, but sooner or later, they were at their vows. Martine sighs and then looks at him, managing a soft smile.

Here went nothing.

"Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today for the union of James Buchanan Barnes and Martine Emilia Laveau."

She smiles brightly, looking over at him. She still couldn't believe they were doing this.

"In the year they have been together, their love and understanding of each other has grown and matured, and now they have decided to live their lives together as husband and wife," Father Lantom said softly, as he pulled out his papers and began to read. "True marriage is more than joining the bonds of marriage of two people; it is the union of two hearts. It lives on the love you give each other and never grows old, but thrives on the joy of each new day. Marriage is love. May you always be able to talk things over, to confide in each other, to laugh with each other, to enjoy life together, and to share moments of quiet and peace, when the day is done. May you be blessed with a lifetime of happiness and a home of warmth and understanding."

He turns to Bucky, smiling warmly.

"Do you James Buchanan Barnes, take Martine Emilia Laveau to be your wife, promising to love and to cherish, through joy and sorrow, sickness and health, and whatever challenges you may face, for as long as you both shall live?

"I do," Bucky said softly. Everyone smiled, including Martine, who gave him a loving smile. Tears shone in her deep blue eyes.

"Do you, Martine Emilia Laveau, take James Buchanan Barnes to be your husband, promising to love and to cherish, through joy and sorrow, sickness and health, and whatever challenges you may face, for as long as you both shall live?

Martine smiled at him. "I do," she said softly.

Steve came over with the rings, and Bucky picked his up first. "I, James, give you, Martine, this ring as an eternal symbol of my love and commitment to you," he said with a smile, as he slid the ring onto her ring finger.

Martine picked hers up next. She smiled softly at Steve, Adrian and the others before placing the ring on Bucky's finger. "And I, Martine, give you, James, this ring as an eternal symbol of my love and commitment to you."

Father Lantom grinned at them both. "I hereby pronounce you husband and wife," he announced, before looking at Bucky. "You may kiss your bride."

Bucky pulled Martine into his arms as he kissed her passionately on the mouth. Everyone cheered happily at them as Peter and his girlfriend, Gwen Stacy, took photos of them. Then a few of Martine with her bridesmaids, and Bucky with his men.

A few moments later they headed down the aisle, holding hands as music played. Once they were outside, he wrapped his arms around her and spun her around, causing her to laugh. When she was down, she smiles at him.

"I love you," Martine said softly, looking into his beautiful, piercing blue-grey eyes. God, she loved them so much.

"I love you too, Martine," he said as he held her. He could never have imagined this, back when he was under the control of HYDRA, that in a couple of years' time, he would be marrying this perfect woman. "Mrs. Barnes."

She chuckled softly, "Mr Barnes," she replied, giving him another quick kiss on the lips.

Everyone came out a little bit later, and all of them headed over to the reception hall to party. Once they were there, the couple was welcomed in, and it was a momentous occasion.

They all happily talked and danced as Martine told all the women to gather around. She threw her bouquet of flowers, spreading them everywhere, and most of the woman caught them, including Wanda and Natasha. They laughed happily, as Helen gave Bucky and Martine beautifully crafted origami figures.

"Gomabseubnida," Martine and Bucky said softly in fluent Korean, causing Helen and her husband, Adam, to smile.

Soon, it was time to dance.

"Alright, you two," Steve smiled as he looked at Bucky and Martine. "First dance time as a married couple."

Bucky laughed at him as he took Martine's hand. He led her to the middle of the room, placing a hand on her back and pulling her into him.

They both started to dance slowly to the soft, music, and everyone smiled at the scene as they watched the happy couple. Photos were taken, some in sepia, while some were black and white, and others in coloured.

Martine wrapped her arms around his neck and rested her head on his shoulder, as they swayed to the music. All the other couples slowly started to join in.

Bucky held her to him tightly as they danced to the music. He smiled as they saw their family dance a few feet away, along with the rest of their family and friends. Biological and non-biological.

"The family," Bucky said softly, as he watched them all smiling and having fun. He looked down at Martine before resting his forehead against hers. "My family."

Martine smiled up at him lovingly and kissed him hard on the mouth. "You're all my family too," she said softly, holding him close. Bucky smiled as he danced with her.

He runs a hand up her side before resting it on her cheek. "God, I never wanna not see your face," he mumbles.

She chuckles quietly before sighing. "Well...you're going into cyro tomorrow..."

He bites his lip and then shakes his head. "I'm not." Her brow furrows and she looks up in shock at him.

"Huh?"

"I talked to T'Challa and the team. Turns out they paid for a honeymoon for us in Hawaii. We don't have to go into cyro so quickly, baby." She smiles and kisses him again, smiling brightly.

"That's amazing, James," she whispers. "I get more time?"

"I had to...me leaving instantly would be selfish. I have to think of my best girl too." She smiles brightly and lays her head against his shoulder.

"Good thing, too," she chuckles.

The song ends and he kisses her again, before the music picked up. She smiles and laughs as he spins her around, making her feel happy and light. For once everything was going as planned.

For once, it felt like heaven. And it was all hers.

After dinner and the cake being served, Bucky was wiping a bit from his face, huffing. "I didn't know you would put some on my face." She chuckles, licking it off her nose.

"It's a tradition," she laughs, taking a bite. "Ugh, God, it tastes so damn good."

Bucky smirks and places a hand on her thigh. "I know what else would taste good." She blushes but rolls her eyes, leaning in to kiss him on the cheek.

"Later, James," she chuckles, taking another bite. He shrugs, leaning back in his chair.

"I'm just saying there's a very valuable janitor's closet we could use." She nearly chokes and laughs.

"Bucky, shush." He snickers a bit and takes a bite of his, looking over at her.

"Nah, I'm just joking. I have a hell of a lot more than that planned for you, sweetheart," he growls in her ear, causing her to bite her lower lip. She smiles at him before Steve stands.

He bangs his fork against his glass, telling everyone to quiet down, and then turns to Bucky.

"To be honest, I always knew I'd end up doing this speech even back when I was a skinny punk, but I never thought it would really happen. Now, I finally see it. Bucky, we've been through it all, so much that some people thought we were a couple-"

"It was one time, Rogers!"

"Can it, Sam." Bucky chuckles, placing an arm around Martine. "But now, I see that love I used to see all the time back then all directed at her, and I'm so damn proud of you for everything you've done. She's been your rock through plenty of situations, your one and only. And I'm happy for the both of you. You got yourself a good one, man. And I wish you and her the best of luck in anything you try to do. To the happy couple."

He raises his glass and everyone else does the same, taking a drink and cheering. Bucky squeezes Martine's side, causing her to smile.

"Thanks for the speech, punk," Bucky states to Steve.

"Anything for you, jerk."

Everyone laughed at their banter and began toasting to the couple, who smiled. They talked to their family and friends. Bucky looked at the pocket watch that had a photo of Martine inside of it. He gripped it tightly.

At least he could be with her for a few days. A few more days with his wife before he got put into cyrostasis, and didn't see her for a while.

At least he wouldn't hurt her or the others. He couldn't live with himself if he hurt Martine or their family and friends. He drank some wine, taking a deep breath.

Jeanette came over and looked at him sternly.

"You take care of our Martine now. I'm trusting you to take care of her, James," Jeanette said sternly. Bucky nodded reassuringly at her.

"I promise. I won't hurt her or let anyone else hurt her," he assures. She smiled at him, as they started leaving for their flight to Hawaii.

Martine got changed out of her wedding dress, and Vanessa handed her a beautifully made red leather jacket, she had wanted to buy it but hadn't, thought it wouldn't look nice. But it fitted her.

"I always thought red suited you, Martine," Wanda said pleased as she smoothed down her bridesmaid dress. Martine smiled and hugged them all tightly. She was wearing a black dress under the leather jacket with a low heeled black boots.

"Thank you, Wanda. All of you," Martine said softly. Wanda hugged her back as everyone hugged her tightly, and helped her down to the reception area.

Bucky got changed out of the tuxedo and was now wearing ordinary clothes. He saw Steve come over and smiled at his best friend gently, gripping his shoulder.

"We'll take care of the cats and handle Ross while you're away on your honeymoon," Steve assured him. Bucky smiled at him in thanks as they embraced.

"Thank you, Steve, for all of this," he said gratefully. Steve smiled as he hugged him back tightly.

"You don't have to thank me, Bucky," he said softly. He thanked the others, including T'Challa, who simply smiled at him. They all reached the reception area, where Martine and the others were.

Martine was dressed similarly to how Bucky was, only she was wearing low-heeled boots and he was wearing regular ones.

She still had on her make-up and her long blonde hair was flowing around her face. She smiled at him and he took her hand tightly, as Peter took more photos with Gwen.

"Ready?" Bucky asked softly.

She smiles and nods, squeezing his hand. They head out of the reception, hearing everyone cheer, before they're let into a car, and it starts to drive off.

Martine laughs and leans against Bucky, looking up at him. "We're married," she says softly.

He leans down and kisses her, wrapping an around her side. "Yes, we are," he says when he pulls away. "And nothing's gonna tear that apart."

The flight to Hawaii had taken five hours, but once they were there, Martine was in awe. Even Bucky. It was so warm and beautiful, even at night time. They were given directions on where to go, and Bucky drove them in a rented jeep.

Once they arrived where they were staying, he shakes his head in amusement. He had shown this house to Steve one day, saying he wanted to live in one day. It was a small cottage by the sea, surrounded by palm trees and flowers.

"Oh my God," she whispers. "This is amazing."

Bucky smiles down at her and then suddenly lifts her up into his arms, literally carrying her bridal style. She squeals and looks up at him.

"What're you doing?" She laughs.

"Might as well do this right, huh?" he asks her before kissing her hard. She moans against his lips as he brings her inside, and then lays her down on the nearest bed. He could hear the crickets outside, a sound in the night.

God, she looked so beautiful.

Her long blonde wavy hair was spread across the pillows and her skin shone under the moonlight lightly, illuminating her skin. Bucky looked at her quietly.

"I love you, Martine," Bucky said softly, while kissing her. They crumpled onto the bed happily and laughed at each other.

"I love you too, Bucky," Martine said softly, stroking his stubbly cheek tenderly. "Husband," she said smiling at him.

"Wife," Bucky replied softly, as he pulled at the pins holding her hair up, until it tumbled down around her face, the magnolia and rose flowers falling beautifully. "That's a beautiful dress, but how about we get you outta it?"

Martine giggled at him and let him take off her dress leaving her in her underwear. He licked his lips at the sight of her.

"So fucking beautiful."

She unbuttoned his shirt and removed it, before undoing the belt on his jeans so that he could step out, leaving him only in his boxers. "Hmm... you're not too bad yourself," she replied with a dazzling smile.

He smirked at her and pulled her into him as he kissed her with all the passion and love he held for her. They kissed and touched each other.

"I want you outta that underwear too," Bucky breathed as he rested his forehead against hers. He slowly started to pull her bra straps down her arms, his rough hands making her shiver as they ran over her skin.

Martine chuckled as she moved away to take her underwear off as she looked at Bucky. "Fine, but the boxers have to go too." Bucky smirked as he pulled off his boxers and tossed them to the side, as they both ended up completely naked and just stared at each other for a minute.

"You are the most beautiful woman I've ever seen," he said softly, as Martine smiled and walked towards him.

"And you're the most beautiful man I've ever seen," she replied. "Can you believe we are actually married?"

"Still feels weird. Good weird, though. I love you so fuckin' much it hurts, Martine," Bucky said softly, as his hands roamed over her bare skin. She was his wife, she was all his. She was Mrs. Barnes. He picked her up and gently laid her down on the bed, before moving to be on top of her. He wanted this to be special.

Enjoy, and review :)
