Disclaimer: Nothing is mine except the plot which someone has probably already done. I haven't
seen it though. I think this story is pretty good but I wrote it so I might be a LITTLE partial.

CHAPTER SIX
I do?
Two hours before the wedding
TAP! TAP! TAP! TAP!
"Yeah?" Alanna called.
"Do you need any help?" Can I come in?" The voice belonged to Eleni.
Almost reluctantly Alanna opened the door and saw Rispah standing behind Eleni. Alanna was about to say 'no' she didn't need
help but thought better of it. She did not wanting to argue with Eleni right now. It would be good to have someone to talk to about
her nerves, to have someone there to help with the fastening on her dress, and help with her hair or anything else that needed doing.
"Yes. Definitely." Alanna moved aside to let the two women in. "Could you hep with my gown?" Alanna asked smiling fakely.
She was hoping that Eleni wouldn't start in on her again. Alanna thought the odds were better with Rispah there.
"Of course. Where is it?" Rispah asked. Alanna pointed to where the dress was hanging up. Rispah and Eleni lifted the
dress over Alanna's slender figure, and Rispah began to fasten the back. Eleni helped Alanna with the front lacings. Moments later
when they finished, both Rispah and Eleni stood facing the Lioness mouths agape.
"What?" Alanna questioned worried.
"Oh! Oh! You're a woman! You're beautiful! You're a beautiful woman!" Eleni blubbered with tears in her eyes. "I'm so
sorry!"
"For what?" Alanna asked.
"For doubting yours and George's union." Eleni explained. "I can tell by the look in George's eyes –and the look in your eyes
as well–that you two love each other deeply. I shouldn't have judged you!"
"Enough! Both of you–Eleni!–Alanna! Stop. You're going to have red, blotchy faces for the wedding!" Rispah scolded.
All three women hugged. Then Eleni and Rispah helped Alanna fix her hair and add the finishing touches. Alanna's golden hair
was pilled neatly on top of her head. Curls were cascading down from the bun and sweeping across her tan shoulders. A light purple
veil was attached with pins into her beautiful hair. Alanna looked amazing. Before any of them knew it he two hours had past and the
bells were chiming to signal the wedding was about to start.
"Oh no!" Alanna cried.
"What?" Eleni and Rispah asked worriedly.
"I think I might vomit!" Alanna wailed. Eleni and Rispah calm the girl until finally the Lioness gets her stomach under control.
Again there was a tapping on the door. Rispah opened it and in strolled Myles. He gently kissed his wife. Then turned to his adoptive
daughter.
"Ready?" Myles asked Alanna.
"Ready as ever, I suppose." She sighed taking Myles' arm.
"You look....you look...." Myles faltered.
"I know. You don't have to say it. Thank you." Alanna told her father wiping a tear from his cheek. "Let's go." She took
a deep breath–as deep as the form fitting dress would allow, and strode down the isle to the smiling George.

"George, can I ask you a question?"
"Sure Sweetness. What is it?" George smiled at his wife, it was a little odd to think he had a wife but at the same time,
it gave him a good feeling.
Alanna thought a moment. "No never mind. It's nothing." At least she hoped it was nothing. Alanna silently scolded herself.
*It's only been two hours after the wedding, do you really want to start problems now?*
"Come on ye've got me curious now. Tell me. What's on yer mind?"
"I'm fine. Just thinking about something. I'll tell you soon enough. We better get going." Alanna thought. *Naw. It can't be.*
"Alright. Come Lioness, our guests are waiting." Alanna and George left for the after wedding party their friends had planned.
