Chapter 4
Today was Courtney's wedding day, and she was as nervous as ever. She felt like she had so many things to do! And as soon as she was up Carly came over to make sure that the bride to be wasn't getting pre-marriage jitters.
The wedding was at two o'clock at the Queen of Angels church, and now it was noon. They were already at the church, and now Courtney was getting her make-up done by a person Carly had recommended. Carly, of course, was her matron of honor and she looked stunning in a shimmering periwinkle dress that showed off how pregnant she was.
About an hour and 45 minutes later people stared coming in. There was only a small guest size estimated, seeing that Jason and Courtney had a limited amount of friends, but of course the Quatermaines had been invited, without AJ or course, and Marco and Max and Johnny and Greg, and a few others, too.
Finally the bridal march started to play and Mike was there to lead Courtney down the aisle. When she entered and saw Jason's eyes on her, she just about cried with happiness. He looked gorgeous in his tux and he had on a small smile and his eyes were twinkling with what looked like tears.
When Courtney and Mike reached the front, he gave her hand to Jason and whispered, "Take care of my baby girl, Jason."
"I will," Jason said with a smile.
The priest then began:
"Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today in the sight of God and in the presence of these witnesses, to join Courtney Matthews and Jason Morgan in holy matrimony. Now I understand that you have your own vows."
They slightly nodded, and then Jason began, "Courtney, you know I'm hopeless with words, but I'll put this the best way I can. I promise to love you and to cherish you from this day forward, until we both fall down and die. I promise to be there for you for always and to hold you up when you are weak. I will be your rock because I love you and I always will; this I promise you."
By now Courtney had tears streaming down her face, yet she was smiling from ear to ear.
"Jason, we've had it rough from the start, I have to admit. Yet we've made it through all the obstacles so far so much that we're standing here today. And the only reason I've been able to stand each day and fight whatever keeps us apart is the fact that I know that you love me and always will, because you are my rock, and I promise to be yours, too, because I will love you until the day I die, this I promise you."
The priest then handed Jason her ring and said, "Jason Morgan, will you have Courtney Matthews to be your wedded wife, to live together after God's ordinance in the holy estate of matrimony; will you love her, comfort her, honor her, and keep her, in sickness and in health, and forsaking all others, keep yourself only unto her, so long as you both shall live?"
Then Jason replied, "I will," and slid Courtney's platinum wedding band next to her sapphire engagement ring.
Then the priest handed Courtney his ring and said, "Courtney Matthews, will you have Jason Morgan to be your wedded husband, to live together after God's ordinance in the holy estate of matrimony; will you love him, comfort him, honor him, and keep him, in sickness and in health, and forsaking all others, keep yourself only unto him, so long as you both shall live?"
Then Courtney replied, "I will," and slid Jason's wedding band onto his finger.
Then the priest said, and what seemed ages, "Jason, you may now kiss your bride."
Jason then cupped Courtney's face in his hands and kissed her passionately. She then opened her mouth to his and held him in an embrace as he engulfed her with his love. At that moment it seemed as if they were the only two people on the planet, and then suddenly they returned to the church, to hear everybody smiling and clapping and Courtney and Jason went hand in hand down the aisle.
But what the happy couple didn't realize was that everybody in the church was not celebrating their marriage. High up in the choir pulpit of the church was a masked man in black. He had with him a sniper gun that was pointed straight at Courtney. The man had his hand on the trigger, it was now or never, they would soon have left the sanctuary, and he had a job to do.
Then all of a sudden the church was filled with a horrendously loud gunshot. Courtney then stood frozen in her tracks and fell to the ground as her world went black.
