Chapter 11:
~*~ Lilies ~*~
Will and Lyra walked back to Will's house to find Mary. They couldn't wait to tell her the news. When they got there, they found Mary drinking a cup of coffee in the kitchen.
"Mary," Lyra said, smiling. "We have something to tell you." Will was grinning, and Lyra was acting a bit giddy. "We're engaged!" She said holding out her hand to display the ring. Mary was speechless. She ran up and hugged them both.
"Congratulations!" She said. "Wow. We have a wedding to plan!"
~*~
There was so much to plan for the wedding. They decided at once to hold the ceremony in the Botanic Garden. It was a beautiful place, and it just seemed right. And there were so many people to invite: the gyptians, Serafina Pekkala, Iorek, and lots more. It all took about a year to plan. Lyra and Will decided to have the wedding on Midsummer's day.
~*~
On Midsummer's day, at midday, Will and Lyra were in the Botanic Garden. It was their wedding day, and everything was perfect. The sun was shining brightly in the cloudless, blue sky. The flowers were in full bloom all around them. Everyone was there. Iorek, Serafina, all of their old friends. Mary was also there, of course. She had been able to travel worlds for years. Bouquets of red lilies tied with white ribbon were arranged throughout the part of the garden they were in. Lilies were Lyra's favorite flower. There were rows of white chairs facing the spot where the ceremony would take place.
Will was standing in front of the people, with the man that would be marrying them. Will was wearing a black tux, and he looked very handsome. Music started playing, Serafina and a few other witches were playing the music. Serafina had a harp. They played a beautiful piece that Serafina wrote for the wedding. And then, Lyra came into view.
She looked beautiful. She was wearing a long, white satin dress, which sparkled in the sunlight. She had let her hair grow long, now it was just past her shoulders. Mary had helped her straighten it for the wedding. She looked amazing, with her bright, blue eyes, her golden-tawny hair, and her white dress. She held a small bouquet of the red lilies. She slowly walked down the isle between the chairs. As soon as she'd come into view, Lyra and Will's eyes met, and they did not take their eyes off each other till the end of the ceremony.
"Lyra," said Will. "I knew there was something about you, the moment I met you. You were different than anyone I'd ever met in my world. You are always brave, and you always did what you wanted no matter what anyone else said. You are clever and beautiful. I love you Lyra, and everything about you."
"Will," said Lyra. "I knew right away I'd never forget you. You are the greatest guy I've ever known Will. I couldn't imagine my life without you. I love you. I always will."
"Do you, William Parry, take Lyra Belaqua Silvertongue, to be your wife?"
"I do." Will said.
"And do you, Lyra Belaqua Silvertongue, take William Parry to be your husband?"
"I do." Lyra said, almost before he finished speaking. Will and Lyra exchanged the rings. They were bands of the metal that had once been a part of the subtle knife. Iorek had made them.
"I now pronounce you husband and wife." Lyra and Will, who were still gazing into each other's eyes, kissed. Everyone cheered. Lyra, still being kissed by Will, threw her bouquet into the air. It was caught by Mary.
