Epilogue

"Squall. Squall! Wake up!" A loud voice interrupted. Squall turned over in his bed to find a blinding light in his eyes.

"Rinoa! Shut the blinds." Squall yelled, pulling his pillow to his face.

"That's the only way for you to get up!" Rinoa took the pillow away from Squall's face and forced him out of bed. Squall fell to the ground with his sheets. Rinoa knelt down beside him. "Sleepy head."

"Where are we supposed to be going anyway?" Squall asked, getting up from the ground.

"You forgot already?" Rinoa asked, putting on lipstick.

"I guess so." Squall answered, getting his towel.

"Cid and Matron are renewing their vows, isn't that great?" Rinoa put the lipstick back on the dresser and picked up mascara.

"I guess so." Squall walked into the bathroom of his dorm. They were finally back at Balamb. Two months had passed since there ruined Vacation.

"Hurry up or we're going to be late. I already brought your suit." Rinoa stood up and walked to the small living room. "Oh yeah! When you go into the bathroom don't use that after shave!" Rinoa warned.

"Alright." Squall walked into the bathroom and took a shower.

"Okay Matron, your almost finished." Quistis said, pressing Matron's hair. Matron sat on a tall stool with her white wedding dress falling to the ground.

"I appreciate it." Matron said, looking at her beautiful daughter in the mirror. Quistis had on a pink gown. It was netted at the bottom. Selphie, Quistis, and Rinoa were all flower girls. They all planned to wear Matron's favorite colors, which were yellow, pink, and baby blue. There was knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Quistis asked, still doing Matron's hair.

"Selphie!"

"Come on in!" Matron yelled. Selphie opened the door and shut it.

"Wow! Matron, you look wonderful! And Beautiful!" Selphie exclaimed, walking towards Matron. Selphie had on a yellow gown, it had the same design as Quistis's dress.

"Well of course she does. I'm the one who helped." Quistis bragged playfully.

"I just came to say congratulation!" Selphie sat down on Matron's sofa.

"Thank you sweety." Matron thanked.

"Alright, your all finished. Quistis made a few more touch ups, then she lifted Matron off the stool.

"Well Matron, I hope you have a wonderful time. I have to go and make sure everything is just right." Selphie opened the door and shut it.

"Quistis? Could you go and make sure all of the refreshments are ready?" Matron asked, putting on her earrings.

"Sure." Quistis walked out of the room and down the hall.

*

"Man, I don't know how to put on ties." Zell said, struggling to put on Cid's tie.

"Matron would know how to do this." Cid said, looking at Zell.

"Don't forget, your not supposed to see the bride until its time." Irvine said. "Here, let me see. I think I remember Selphie tellin' me how to tie a tie." Irvine tied Cid's tie. "There we are."

"Oh, thanks Irvine." Cid said. "Well, I believe we're finished here, so why don't we all go down and see how the decorations look." Cid and everyone else walked out of the door.

*

"I told you not to use the after shave." Rinoa said, putting a cold and wet rag on Squall's jaw.

"I didn't think it would sting that bad." Squall said.

"Next time, listen." Rinoa snapped. She had on a baby blue gown. It was also similar to Selphie and Quistis's gown. "Squall your going to make us late."

"Sorry." Rinoa couldn't help but laugh at Squall fr being such a knuckle head.

"What?"

"Your such a knuckle head." Rinoa kissed him on the cheek. "Well, you better be at the wedding by the time I count to ten. 1, 2."

"Alright, I'm ready." Rinoa grabbed him arm and they left.

"So than, the guys punched me while I was on the ground." Zell said, annoying his parents with his same story.

"Zell, don't get yourself in fights you can't win." Zell's mom said.

"Mom, that's not the point. The point is-" Zell was cut off.

"That is the point, know shut up and talk about something else."

"Hey Zell!" Selphie exclaimed, walking up to him.

"Oh hey Selphie, did you see Matron yet? The wedding is going to start in fifteen minutes."

"She's in her room. She should be out in a minute." Selphie answered.

"Testing, testing, 1, 2, 3." Quistis said, testing the microphone. "Everyone, its almost time to get started, so could you take your seat?" Everyone began to take there seats.

"See Squall, they were about to start without us." Rinoa said, walking into the down the white carpet. Nida sat down at the piano and began playing the traditional wedding tune. Quistis jumped of the stage and ran down the hall. Irvine came down the aisle as the best man. He walked up to the stage. Then Cid came out and walked down to the stage. The ring barrier who was Zell came down the aisle.

'Aw man, don't blow this.' Zell said to himself. 'If you drop the ring, you better pray for yourself.' Zell was so into his thoughts, he bumped into Cid, causing him to drop the ring. Cid was quick enough to catch it. The flower girls then came out, putting flower on the ground. Then Squall came out with the bride. Usually the father would have to walk the bride down, but Matron's father died a long time ago. Everyone stood up as the beautiful bride walked down. As Squall and Matron walked down, they had a little conversation.

"Are you nervous Squall?" Matron asked.

"A little, but I wouldn't miss your wedding for the world." Squall answered.

"Your so sweet." They finally made it down the Aisle. Squall walked over to where Rinoa was.

"You looked so handsome." Rinoa whispered to Squall. Matron recited her vows to Cid and Cid did the same.

"By the power invested in the me, you are now remarried. You may kiss the bride." Cid lifted Matron's veil and kissed her. Everyone cheered and made a lot of noise. Matron and Cid turned to the crowd and laughed.

"Now everyone! Time to eat and drink!!!!!" Zell yelled, already drinking champagne. Everyone did so, while Cid and Matron cut the cake. "Cut!" Zell yelled, making Cid cut the cake crooked. Everyone got there share of cake and food.

"So like, are they going on there honeymoon tonight?" Irvine asked, sitting down with his friends.

"Well of course Irvine!" Selphie said. "Wow, I can't believe we had such a good time that it got dark out fast.

"Yeah, and I can't believe they had all the types of hotdogs I like!" Zell yelled, stuffing his face.

"Okay you all! I want you to grab a partner and dance to my favorite song."

Cid said, holding the Mic to his mouth. Rinoa of course, pulled Squall along to dance. Selphie did the same and Quistis took Zell. The song was upbeat. Everyone were having a nice time. They didn't care how long it lasted as long as they had each other and a great time.
