A/N: This is the last chapter before the actual wedding. Grandpa Janny is
holding on to dear life by a thread.
"Is he okay?"
"His heart is really weak, he's barely pulling through." Tristan said shakily. Rory could tell he was trying to hold back tears.
"Is there anything I can do?"
"Well, there's one thing that he wants. He wants to see me get married before he dies."
"No prob. We'll just move the wedding to next weekend."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes I'm sure, I'll call everyone and tell them what's up. You just stay there with your Grandpa."
"You don't know how much this means to him, how much this means to me"
"Yeah yea, love you"
"Love you too, bye"
"Bye"
As soon as she hung up Rory ran to her mother's house to get her phone book. She was going to have to make alot of calls to be ready ontime for the wedding.

Rory's heart was beating a mile a minute. Her palms were sweaty, she felt like she was going to throw up any minute. She looked in the mirror and calmed down a bit. She looked beautiful.
Her strapless white gown, with pears lining the sides, clinging to her like a second skin, but elegantly flowing into a silky skirt and train. She pulled down her veil, that was pinned to her hair by white flowers. She looked down at the tear-drop diamond pendant that hung low on her neck. And she glanced at her diamond earings. She couldn't help but smile. She thought this day would never come and to Tristan of all people. In her sophmore year, if anyone told her she would be marrying Tristan DuGrey she would first laugh but not before telling that person they must have been a little crazy. But so much had changed, she had changed and he had changed. And this change was for the better.
"Ror, hon it's almost time." Lorelai said interrupting her thoughts. She, Lane, Alissa (remember from graduation), Paris, and (much to the displeasure of Lorelai) Sherry were the bridesmaids. All of them had identical pale pink spaghetti strapped gowns that fluttered to a stop at the knee.
"Okay, I'll be right there." she said, adjusting her veil once more.
Lane, Paris, Lorelai, Alissa, and Sherry were all called out because the wedding procession was about to start. Rory fidgeted nervously and linked arms with her father and waited.

Tristan was a nervous wreck. He must've run his hands through his hair a million times already. He fixed his white tie and wiped his sweaty, shaky palms on the side of his pants. He was pacing back and forth, back and forth. All this was making Luke very dizzy.
"Tristan you gotta calm down " Luke finally said after watching him pace back and fourth 287 times.
"I can't. It's just like it's the first day of the rest of my life. Oh crap. Now I'm sounding like some Hallmark add. But what I mean is, I can imagine my self growing old with Rory. She's so ... amazing. I don't know how I deserve to have her."
"Look I know exactly how you feel. I felt just like that when I married Lorelai. But trust me, if you keep rubbing your hands on your jacket, it'll be wet by the time you get down to the other side of the alter. Even though you are a nervous wreck now, when you see Rory and when she makes her way down the isle, you will realize that she is yours and any thing you had to go through to get her was all worth it." Tristan just nodded and ran his hands through his hair again. Luke chuckled and walked out the door mutter something that sounded like "poor kid".

Tristan walked down the isle, with his mother linked to his arm. He couldn't look to the sides of him because he was afraid that he would trip or something. His mother was walking gracefully next to him, barely touching him. His parents never had the best relationship with him and he didn't mind either. When they got to the end, his mother sat down quickly. Tristan looked over at his grandfather who was sitting in a wheel chair, being pushed down the isle by his grandmother. He had some IV in a bag on a stand also being wheeled down the isle. Next he saw Luke and Lorelai make their way down the isle. Tristan could tell that they were reminded so much of their own wedding. Luke wore a smile, which wasn't very common, and Lorelai had tears in her eyes. All of the bride's maids, accompanied by the groom's men, walked down the isle. Then, Christopher and Sherry's daughter, Linda, took tiny steps. She had white flowers in her hair and was excited to be the flower girl. She was slightly skipping, her long brown braid tumbling behind her. She smiled as showed some of her missing teeth. She continued down the isle and spread pink rose petals on the floor. The church erupted with "awes". After everyone was in the alter, the music stopped, and the organ started playing the wedding march. It seemed that when the music stopped, his heart stopped as well. He could do this, it would all be worth it in a few short seconds.
Here goes nothing DuGrey, he thought as the doors opened.
A/N: Okay that's all for now. I know, I'm evil aren't I. But that's alright because my evil ways are for a reason. I try to make my chapters at least a thousand words each because then it doesn't give to much away but it's a nice lengthy chapter. So don't get mad cuz I stopped right there. It's all in your (the reviewers) hands. Gimmie reviews and I give you chapters. That's the dillyo. Okay that's all I wanted to mention. Fair well my readers !
