"Liz sit still would you", said Serena curling her hair.
"I am I'm just excited, sorry", said Liz smiling jumping in her seat.
Today was her wedding day. She brought th perfect dress and Isabel and her girls helped her with everything. They had got the chair seat up by the podchamber where Max was born becasue that was where they were having the wedding. Liz last week asked Zan and Serena to sing at her wedding in the beginning when the whole party was walking in. Maria was her maid of honor and Michael was Max's best man. Max was guilty about since Zan was his brother but Zan told him that he would look at him wrong if Max had not chosen Michael since her was Max's best friend and should be his best man.
"Wow you look beautiful Liz", said Isabel looking over Liz's head and into the mirror that Liz and Serena wer facing.
"Yup I do good work", said Serena in confidence.
She wasn't dressed yet becasue she was helping Liz get ready. Serena put light brown color in her dark brown hair and curled it all over her head. The curls flowed down. Liz didn't realy want a veil so Serena planted small flowers in her hair instead.
"You ready chica?", asked Maria smiling.
Liz nodded her head and smiled big at the thought of finally marrying Max. Ava smiled at Liz's smiling face.
"Girl you are glowing", said Ava planting her hands on Liz's stomach.
"Xander is jumping for joy in there, he is happy his parents are finally getting married", said Ava.
Liz just smiled again holding her stomach and said in a whispered voice, "Hand in there baby me and daddy are going to be together forever".
She was the one that suggested that they get married near the podchamber. Max was shocked at first but smiled it was perfect.
Meanwhile at the Evans' home a very nervous Max Evans paced his room while his best guy friends laughed at him.
"Max calm down will you", said Alex smiling at Max pacing nervously.
He understood why Max was nervous but it was still fun to watch. All of them stood in Max room while Max mumbled to himself.
"Max buddy it's going to be fine", said Kyle finally sitting down on Max's bed.
Max looked up and saw Zan and the rest them smiling.
He took a deep breath and sighed.
"Yah I know but this is my wedding day to Liz", said Max trying to make them understand.
"WE know Max, it's about time you married that girl, youv'e been in love with her since you were 8 years old, and not to mention previous lifetimes before that", said Michael smirking.
He always found it amusing when Max was nervous.
"Bro chill and sit down and enjoy your last few hours as a man without the old ball and chain, since you know marrying Liz is just a formality since you have been married to that girl for how many years", said Zan.
Max glared at his brother but smiled.
"You ready to sing Zan?", asked Kyle sipping his coke.
"Don't spill that on your tux Kyle", said max.
"Yeah Mom", replied Kyle.
"Yeah I am, but I don't get why Liz wants me and Serena to sing, it's not like they don't have that song on cd or whatever", replied Zan to Kyl'e question.
"She said she likes you guys together singing or something to that effect", said Alex.
"These tuxs are annoying", said Michael pulling at his collar.
"Young man stop that", said Diane coming into the room.
"Mom", whined Michael.
Diane rolled her eyes and looked at Max how seemed to look like he was going to pass out.
"Max calm down you making me feel nervous", said Diane soothing his back.
Max relaxed at that and smiled at her. She always made him feel better. Phillip Evans walked in then.
"HOw are you holding up?", asked Phillip looking at max who was feeling much better now.
"It's time", said Phillip.
Max got up and took a deep breath. Michael patted his pockets to make sure that he had the rings. Zan just snorted when Max had gotten up and almost fell over.
"Not funny Zan", said Max.
"Yeah it is", said Kyle laughing until he saw Diane glare in his direction.
They all waked out of the room and went outside into the limo with Max's parents following them in their car. They reached near the podchamber.
"Wow Isabel and girls did a great job", said Zan looking at the area.
White roses decorated the whole area. Chairs with white chair covers aligned in rows and at the end of each row had ribbons and roses attached to it. The middle aisle had white roses sprinkled on the ground. In the head of the aisle was a hupa decorated in white roses and trimmings and on the side was a small stage built so that Zan and Serena could sing the opening song. Max walked next to the hupa and Michael joined him.
"You ready?", asked Michael looking into Max's amber eyes.
"I have never been more sure of anything in my life", said Max.
Michael nodded his head.
"Take care of my sister, Max you both me everything to me so I want you to know that I'm happy for you", said Michael.
Max smiled at his longtime friend.
"Thanks that means alot", said Max.
Michael his head and smiled.
"Well take a deep breath becasue here they come", said Michael.
Max looked over at the stage and saw Serena wink at him. She looked beauitful in her white gown. Liz insisted everyone wear white except for the guys which she insited wore black tux with white box ties. Max shifted his eyes toward the aisle. He saw Ava lining up next to Kyle, behind them stood his sister and Alex. Maria was after them also dressed in a dress similiar to Isabel and Ava. Max looked but still didn't see Liz and her father yet. Max's attention shifted to Zan when he heard the first few bars of Lifehouse's Everything. Zan had his guitar and Serena stood next to him ready to sing her part. Max's hart bounded hard in his chest and took a deep breath trying to get it under control.
Find Me Here Speak To Me I want to feel you I need to hear you You are the light That's leading me To the place where I find peace again.
Zan sang slowly into the microphone. Max let the words wash over him. He felt the words in his body and trembled. Zan plucked the guitar strings. Serena's voice came in the second verse.
You are the strength, that keeps me walking.
You are the hope, that keeps me trusting.
You are the light to my soul.
You are my purpose...you're everything.
Zan and Serena's voice blended in perfect harmony when the next verse came up. Max looked up and his gasped. There walked down it seemed in slow motion his world. Her hair blew from the slight wind the desert gave. Her face held a smile. She was breathtaking, eternal really.
How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
The next verse touched something in Max's soul. He knew why Liz picked this song. It fit them perfectly. It was them.
You calm the storms, and you give me rest.
You hold me in your hands, you won't let me fall.
You steal my heart, and you take my breath away.
Would you take me in? Take me deeper now?
Serena's voice caught in her voice. Tears were spilling from everyone's eyes. This was a perfect day. It was 6 pm and the sun was going down. The sun gave the sky an orange and red color. No one could tell where the earth began, it was amazing.
How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
And how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
Max looked at Liz again and felt his breath caught. She smiled at him, tears fell from his eyes. He was shaking with emotion, it was pure and true. He didn't notice the others lining up next to him or feel whn Maria kiss his cheeks. He ony saw her his queen. He felt her everywhere inside him. He knew this was the one. This woman was his match in everyway.
Cause you're all I want, You're all I need
You're everything,everything
You're all I want your all I need
You're everything, everything.
You're all I want you're all I need.
You're everything, everything
You're all I want you're all I need, you're everything, everything.
Zan looked at Max crying in the front. He knew it everyone felt it. The balance was been shifted. Zan fet this pure love radiating within his body. He was holding Serena up it was so powerful. He didn't fight it he let it consume him as he knew it consumed his brother. Serena looked at Zan and joined in the singing from the hearts and soul.
And How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
Max didn't feel the tears in his eyes or how he was shaking with emotion he only saw her face her beautifu face. He knew it in his bones. This is right.
Liz clutched her father's arms and cried silently looking at the man of her dreams. She knew he didn't know he was crying or that he was literally shaking. SHe understood his emotins becasue her own were the same. She felt what he was feeling. And the song the way Zan and Serena was singing it to them, she knew it was right. She didn't tell them that she had her first real vision last week and she saw all of this and how she was moved to tears then too. God she was getting married and she was marrying Max her King and her lover and most of all her soulmate.
How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
Lifehouse asked the question how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you? Max didn't know the answer to that becasue god just being around Liz talking to her and being with her was enough to make him tremble, he was always moved by her.
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
Nothing could be better then this. Liz finally reached the end of her journey and looked first at her brother who smiled at her and then turned to the man that moved her in ways that she didn't think possible. Max Evans melted her and created her. Max Evans her soon to be husband look at Liz with tears in his eyes and a smile on his face. He took her hand and walked over to the priest to begin a new chapter in thier lives.
