The next day Lily was back in Jordan's office. "Hey" Jordan said looking up
from her case file.
"Hey, Jordan will you be my maid of honor?" Lily asked timidly.
"Oh Lily, of course I will, but are you sure you want me?"
"Yeah I want you, I know we've had disagreements in the past but now I think of us like sisters" Lily said honestly.
Jordan smiled tenderly "I always wanted a sister" she said hugging her.
Lily started to walk out the door "Great, oh yeah, by the way the wedding is in Las Vegas, we're leaving next Saturday"
"What????" Jordan screeched but Lily was already out the door.
Jordan, Woody, Nigel, Bug and Max were all going to Las Vegas for the wedding while Peter stayed behind and manned the forts since he wasn't particularly close to them anyway.
They got there on the Friday before the wedding and they spent the day walking the strip and playing in the casinos. They were all having a really great time. They discussed the wedding details over dinner. Everyone noticed Jordan's remarkable girliness in discussing the details with Lily. "Hey! Leave me alone, it's Vegas, wedding capital of the world, you cant help but get caught up in it" she tried defending herself. Woody just smiled to himself, hoping that she was getting caught up in it.
"Well, if you'll excuse us, I think we need a little quiet time" Garrett said excusing him and Lily from the group.
"It's bad luck to see the bride before the wedding ya know" Nigel reminded them.
"Wedding's tomorrow Nigel" Garrett said sternly. Everyone laughed.
"Well come on boys, let's leave these kids alone too" Max said throwing his arms around Bug and Nigel and leading them into the casino.
Want to go for a walk?" Woody asked, taking her hand and lightly placing a kiss on it.
"Sure" she answered clasping his hand in hers.
They walked out onto the strip, looking at all the pretty lights illuminating the city. They walked down to the Bellagio to see the amazing dancing fountains. Woody stood behind her and she leaned back against him holding his arms closely around her.
"I love you Jordan, more than anything in the world" he whispered.
"I know that" she said turning her head to smile up at him.
He bent down and kissed her forehead gently. "And I love you too Woody" she said finishing her sentence.
"Really?" he asked
"Of course Woody, you know I do"
"Then marry me" he said turning her to face him.
"What?" she asked shocked by his out of the blue proposal.
"Well I was hoping more for a yes" he said trying to smile through his nervousness.
"Woody, you don't mean that, it's just being here that's making you think that's what you want."
He frowned; worried that she was making excuses.
"No Jordan, I know this is what I want, I want to marry you and be with you forever, marry me"
She just looked at him without answering. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a small box and opened it to her. She lost her breath when she saw the diamond ring in the box.
"You're serious aren't you?" she asked covering her face with her hands.
"Yes! Yes I'm serious Jordan, will you marry me?" he asked again
She stared into his crystal blue eyes; unable to find the word her heart desperately wanted her to say.
He took the ring out and put it on her shaky finger. She looked down at it then up to him, tears in her eyes. "Yes" she said simply.
Tears filled his eyes as he pulled her to him and kissed her happily.
