Chapter 27
Buffy and Angel walked down the steps of the porch then on to the grass of Buffys backyard. Buffy began walking down the isle holding on to Angels arm tightly. She slowly began to swing her eyes sideways to look at the people who had attended. Some were friends of hers or friends of willow and Xanders. Buffy looked in the direction she was walking and saw a garden arch covered with not only flowers but ribbons as well. Buffy smiled that must be were I am getting married she thought. J was standing patiently under it while Spike was fidgeting next to her. Well at least thought it was Spike, he wasn't facing her but she knew that blonde head anywhere.
Buffy was almost there when she noticed a familiar brunette grinning at her. Buffys eyes widened when she realized it was Dawn. Buffy almost took off down the isle but Angels strong arm held her back. Buffy finally made it the rest of the way down the isle and let go of Angels arm and extending her left out to Dawn. Dawn took it and gave it a reassuring squeeze before letting go and motioning her to turn around. Buffy turned to J and saw that Spike had his head down fidgeting with his hands. Buffy leaned over and grabbed one of his hands. Spike looked up surprised. He was in his own little world. Buffy smiled and nodded at him, which made his smile grow. Spike nodded at J letting her know that it was ok to continue with the ceremony.
J smiled then nodded at the couple.
"Ladies and gentlemen today we are here to witness the union between Buffy and Spike. An usual bond but we all know that love knows no boundaries and these two have shown that love does really conquer all. I have been told that this couple has endured many ups and downs in their relationship and will continue with them even after marriage. A life long commitment isn't going to be all hugs and kisses. It's going to be hard and tough and there will be times where they may doubt why they are together. The love these two show for each other is what will keep them together. If spending years apart from each other cant quench their love then nothing will"
J placed her hand over Buffy and Spikes and a blue light began to hover over the cupped hands. J took her hand away then turned to Spike.
"Repeat after me. "I Spike promise to love, honor and obey this women and do anything in my power to protect her" then place the ring on her hand"
Spike smiled at J she knew she had modified that speech just for him he only wonder what she would say for Buffy.
Spike cleared his throat and began to speak for the first time since Buffy had walked down the isle.
"I Spike, promise to love, honor and sometimes obey this women and do EVERYTHING in my power to protect her"
The crowed began to softy laugh at Spikes change of words while he turned to Xander to get the ring. Spike looked up at Buffy meekly to see if she was pissed at his change of words. Seeing that she wasn't Spike slid the ring on her hand.
"Now Buffy repeat after me "I Buffy, promise to Love, honor and obey, with in reason, this umm and obey Spike, and understand why he has the need to protect you" then place the ring on his hand"
Buffy smiled then took deep breath.
"I Buffy,.." Buffy stopped then frowned. She then began to open and close her mouth like a gold fish.
"I Buffy," she stammered.
