PART 9- THE WEDDING (AGAIN!)
Maria and Liz were very excited, it was like a
dream come true to have a double wedding. They
couldn't believe their luck, even as little girls,
they couldn't have come up with a better version of
life. Well, except maybe the alien thing...but that
could be a plus too. Right?
Isabel walked into the dressing room.
"Oh, you guys look so great! I can't belive
you're getting married. The gang is together again!"
"I know, we're really excited. Do you think the
guys are nervous?" Maria asked.
"What's there to be nervous about if we're the
girls of their dreams???" Maria asked with a laugh.
Liz laughed too.
"You guys had better hurry up, the pianist is
getting impatient." Alex said, poking his head inside
the dressing room.
"Alex!" Maria screamed, "What if we weren't
decent?" They all laughed.
"Ready, Liz?" Maria asked.
"Sure am." Liz replied. They walked out into the
hallway and Alex took their arms.
"Hey..." Isabel whined.
"Relax, babe, there's enough of me to go around."
Alex told her.
"Hahaha." Isabel replied.
"It's time." Jeffrey Parker whispered. He came
out into the hallway with Jim Valenti.
"Ready girls?" Jim asked.
"As ready as we'll ever be." Maria replied. The
music started and Christina, Maria's little cousin,
walked down the aisle, throwing flowers. Isabel, Alex,
Kyle, and his girlfriend, Jennifer walked after her.
Then Mr. Parker took his dughters arm and Jim took
Maria's. When they entered the church, everyone stood
up. Max and Michael looked back at them. Liz looked at
Max and smiled. Maria smiled too. Soon they were at
the altar. Liz kissed her father, and Maria kissed her
step father, and they sat down. Liz and Maria took
their places next to their husbands to be, and the
ceremony began.
"Michael, Maria, Max and Liz have all written
their own vows, that will now be read." The Priest
said. Michael went first.
"Maria, the first time I saw you, I knew that you
were something special. I think in some way I have
always loved you, and I know I always will. As we
start our new lives together, I want you to know how
much I care about you, even though I may not always
show it in the ways you'd like me to. I will always be
there for you, and I don't want you to ever forget
that."
When Michael was finished Maria had tears in her
eyes. She wiped them away as she began to read.
"Michael. When I first met you, I figured you
were some guy who could never open up to anyone. The
only person you cared about was yourself. But over the
years, I've learned what a kind and gentle person you
really are. I know that you may not always be the most
romantic guy in the universe, but I also know that you
try. I love you because you're you. And I want you to
know that you should never try to be something you're
not, especially for me. I love you for you. And I
always will, no matter what."
By this time Maria was crying again. Max went
next.
"Liz, I think we both know that we are soulmates.
I knew ever since the first time I saw you. We belong
together, it's written in the stars. I love you more
than life itself, I'd gladly give my life if it meant
saving yours. I want you to know that this feeling
will never go away, I will always love you with all my
heart and soul. For me, there's only you."
Liz looked up at Max. She smiled at him looked
deep into his eyes, and began to speak.
"Max, I love you so much, even you have no idea.
Our love is such a beautiful thing, and that will
never change. I have come to believe, over the past
few months...that only something very strong, such as
love, can alter destiny. We've proven that. We do
belong together. Nothing can stand in our way. I will
always love you. In my eyes, you are the most
beautiful thing alive. Love, in my eyes, is you."
By the end of the ceremony, there was not a dry
eye in the church.
