Chapter 11: The Wedding

*a few months later*

When Sydney woke up that Saturday morning, she felt really nervous. Because today she would finally get married to the man of her dreams, Michael Vaughn.

Sydney got out of bed and walked downstairs to the kitchen to get some coffee.

It kind of felt strange to wake up in her dad's house again, but Sydney and Vaughn had stuck to the tradition. She and Cassie had spent the night at Jack's place and Vaughn had slept at his mom's house.

Sydney poured herself some coffee and started making breakfast for everyone. While making it, she thought about tonight and her own special surprise for Vaughn.

Vaughn woke up that morning by the smell bacon and eggs. He smiled as he realized that his mother had made all of his favorite food from when he was younger.

He got out of bed and went downstairs to greet his mother.

Megan Vaughn was sitting at the table, eating her breakfast. Vaughn walked over to her and placed a gentle kiss on her cheek.

"Good morning my son."

"Morning."

"Did you sleep well?"

"Yeah, I did. This smells great!"

"Sit down and I'll give you your breakfast."

"Thanks." Vaughn sat down and started eating.

"So how are you feeling my son?" Vaughn smiled as he started speaking.

"I can't wait to go to the church and to see her again."

"You really love her, don't you?"

"She's great mom…She means everything to me and becoming a bigger part of hers and Cassie's life is just…unbelievable." Megan smiled and took her son's hand.

"Never let her go."

"I won't." They finished their breakfast and started making themselves ready for the wedding.

Sydney had just finished breakfast when Jack and Cassie came downstairs.

"Good morning dad."

"Hey honey."

"Hi mommy!" Sydney picked the little girl up.

"Hey sweetie. Did you sleep well?"

"Uh-huh. Mommy?"

"Yes pumpkin?"

"When can I wear my dress?"

"Well, you have to eat first and then I can help you get ready ok?"

"Ok mommy." Sydney loved the fact that Cassie was so excited to be a bridesmaid.

An hour later Cassie was finally dressed and Sydney could start getting ready herself.

She curled her hair and it hang loosely over her shoulders. Sydney then picked up her wedding dress.

It was a beautiful dress with a few drapes. She looked absolutely amazing in it and she loved the fact that you could see her bare shoulders. She put it on together with her necklace and earrings and about an hour later she was ready to go to the church.

Vaughn, Megan, Weiss and all of the other guests were already inside and Vaughn looked nervous enough for about hundred people.

He couldn't wait to put Sydney's wedding ring on her finger. Weiss was standing next to him and whispered something to him.

"How are you holding up?"

"I'm one nervous wreck, if that's what you mean?"

"You'll be fine." Vaughn nodded and he knew he would be the moment he would see her.

A little while later the music finally started playing and the church doors opened.

Cassie walked down the aisle and she was soon followed by Jack and Sydney.

The moment that Vaughn saw her, he smiled widely. She was the most beautiful and perfect person he had ever seen.

Jack stopped next to Vaughn and gave his daughter away.

Sydney smiled and whispered something to Vaughn.

"I love you." He whispered it back and squeezed her hand for a tiny moment.

It was a beautiful wedding and about sixty minutes later they were finally Mr. and Mrs. Vaughn.

The whole afternoon was filled with taking photographs and thanking everyone.

It was already five pm when the party begun.

Everyone was seated and Weiss began his speech.

"Ok, as you all know I'm Mike's best friend and he asked me to be his witness today.

I was very thrilled and honored to do so and I said yes. But now I'm a bit nervous because of the fact that I actually have to be and say something serious right now.

Anyway…When Mike first talked to me about Sydney, I noticed something.

Every time he said her name, he had this light in his eyes and I soon realized that his feelings for Sydney were beyond friendship.

But every time I brought it up, he just denied it. He doesn't do that anymore and I'm glad.

You two are really made for each other and I hope that you'll never give up what you have.

So I wish you two all the luck of the world."

Vaughn and Sydney thanked him for what he had said.

Jack too had to give a speech so he stood up and began.

"Sydney…I know that I haven't been there a lot for you when you were little and I still regret that. But I'm thankful for the bond we have now and I hope that we can keep it that way.

Michael…When I first found out that Sydney had fallen in love with you, I wasn't very thrilled. I was scared that you were going to break her heart, but I know better now.

You did the opposite. You proved that you are worthy of her heart and you made her happy again.

 Now, a happy marriage is something that you can only get when you are really into each other with every inch of your body, heart and soul. And I know that you both have that quality to make it work. So I hope that nothing will ever destroy the love you feel for each other."

Sydney had tears in her eyes and she went over to her dad and hugged him.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome." Vaughn too had tears in his eyes and he gave Jack a hand to thank him.

After the whole diner and the cake it was finally time for the opening dance.

Sydney and Vaughn both walked over to the dance floor and started dancing.

He had his arms around her waist and she had hers around his neck.

Sydney laid her head on his shoulders and took in the scent of his aftershave.

For all those times you stood by me

For all the truth that you made me see

For all the joy you brought to my life

For all the wrong that you made right

For every dream you made come true

For all the love I found in you

I'll be forever thankful baby

You're the one who held me up

Never let me fall

You're the one who saw me through it all

You were my strength when I was weak

You were my voice when I couldn't speak

You were my eyes when I couldn't see

You saw the best there was in me

Lifted me up when I couldn't reach

You gave me faith 'coz you believed

I'm everything I am

Because you loved me

Vaughn kissed her shoulder and she lifted her head to look at him.

"How are you feeling Mrs. Vaughn?"

"Pretty good. How about you?"

"I feel like I'm the happiest man of the world." Sydney smiled as she replied.

"There's something I have to tell you."

"What is it?" She lowered her voice so that he would be the only one to hear it.

"We're going to have a baby." Vaughn couldn't believe his ears.

"Are you sure?"

"Absolutely." Vaughn leaned over and kissed her passionately on the mouth.

"How far are you?"

"Four months." Both of them couldn't stop smiling.

"This is the most beautiful day of my life and I love you!"

"I love you too." They kissed and both knew that this would be the beginning of a whole new life.

A life with each other and filled with love.

It would also be the beginning of their own family…
