(A/N: I know in the new movie Wonka's father and him don't get along, but the movie's not out yet, so I think I can get away with them having a good relationship... at least until the movie does come out and the people who see it months from now read this for the first time and yell at me, but that's going way ahead of myself!)

(Three months later)
"Are you sure there's nothing left that I can do?" asked Reya. She was standing in the church where she was going to be married and helping with the last minute preparations. Her mother walked over to her and placed a hand on her shoulder. "Honey," she said softly. "You've done enough. It's late and you're exhausted. Please, go home and sleep before you collapse on us"
"Are you sure"
"Yes! Now, go. Everything will be all ready"
"Okay," she said unsure. "See you." She left and walked home since it was a short walk. Her nerves were on the edge and she felt ready to burst. She was getting married in the morning and was scared out of her mind. Yes, she loved Wonka and she really really wanted to do this, but she was so afraid that something would go wrong like one of them would get sick, or one of them would walk out at the last minute. What if the ministor got lost? What if one of them died?
"Stop it!" she scolded herself out loud. Someone walking by stopped, looking at her funny and she glanced back. "Don't look at me like I'm crazy!" she said and continued walking, certain she had startled the pedestrian. "I'm not crazy," she muttered. "Insane, maybe. But not crazy"
"You can say that again," said a voice and she nearly jumped out of her skin. "Whoa!" cried Wonka and he placed his hands on her shoulders, holding her down. "Easy there, my dear. I think you set a world record for height there"
"Don't... do... that!" she wheezed, running her hands through her hair.
"Nerves?" he asked. She nodded. "How many expressos did you have"
"Four," she answered. "You"
"Six. Come on." They walked down the street, talking it out and letting out their stress.
"Aren't you scared?" she asked. "I'm on edge"
"I most certainly am, my dear woman. And the overload of caffine is not helping in the slightest. I don't think I'll be able to sleep tonight"
"Me neither... and it's not the caffine speaking." He smiled sympathetically and put his arm over her shoulders. "Do you ever worry that we took things too fast? Like we got engaged too fast"
"Sometimes," he said. "I was actually worried that it was too soon the night I asked you. But I know the timing was just right"
"Why's that?" He stopped and looked at her, smiling.
"Because you said yes." She smiled and nodded. "Reya, we're going to do this. I know you're scared... I'm a complete wreck myself! But I think it'd be the same no matter what the date was"
"At least we're not eloping in Paris like I wanted to months ago," she said smiling.
"I've got good news," he said after a minute. "My father is going to be at the wedding"
"That's awesome!" she said, smiling.
"He's very excited to meet you. He said you're the miracle girl"
"Really"
"Apparently he was afraid his son was attracted to... well, not girls"
"Not that there's anything wrong with that," she said quickly.
"Yes, but I'm afraid it's his worst nightmare"
"Personally, I don't agree with the lifestyle, but I've got a lot of friends that roll that way and I love them, just not what they do"
"As does my father," he said. "Personally I couldn't care less as long as they're not trying to flirt with me... and it has happened before if you can believe it." She laughed, secretly thinking she could. He had a bit of a feminine look to him. "But when I told him I was getting married, the first thing he asked was "What's his name?"" Reya laughed again and he chuckled. "But I told him all about you... in fact I had told him about you before, around the time when we had first met"
"How'd he react when he found out how old I am?" Wonka smiled.
"He didn't care, really. I think all that mattered to him was that it was a female. But he says he can't wait to see you and gain a daughter." Reya smiled inwardly at the thought.
"I never thought of that," she muttered. "It's sort of like it was meant to happen. You don't have a mom and I do. I don't have a dad and you do. When we get married, we'll have both. I mean, it won't be the same cuz no one can replace the original, but it's kind of cool if you think about it." He nodded.
"I never realized that," he muttered. "It is like it was meant to be, isn't it"
"Either that or one heck of a coincidence." He chuckled and kissed her cheek.
"I also have decided to keep the factory and have an heir naturally, but we can't raise a family in there. So, I have purchased a home, I think you'll love. I'll work in the factory during the day, and come home to you in the evening, take weekends off. The oompa-loompas can handle it"
"You don't have to do that for me," she said softly.
"I want to," he said. "I'm actually not going to be working in the factory for the first month and a half of our marriage because I want to help get everything settled in to the house, take time for a honeymoon, everything. It's all planned out"
"Wow," she said.
"Promise me one thing," he said softly. "I already know it won't be an issue, but promise me you'll be a wife I can trust to be loyal when I'm at work"
"You think I wouldn't?" she asked, surprised and worried.
"No, I don't! I'm just saying I'm trusting you, and no matter what, it's still going to be scary"
"I promised you when we got engaged that I wouldn't leave you, and I still stand by that. There's no way I'll do that. Ever"
"I know," he said softly, hugging her. "I just needed to hear it"
"What time is it?" she asked. He looked at his watch.
"Goodness gracious! It's three thirty in the morning"
"Yikes!" she gasped. "I'd better go home or my mom's going to freak out"
"See you later," he said, kissing her. "I love you"
"I love you too," she said, kissing his cheek. They parted silently, and she turned breifly, catching a last glimpse of her husband to be, strolling off into the night.

Amazingly, Reya managed to fall asleep that night, or day is more like it. And before she knew it, her alarm went off and she was running about her room, getting ready. She had forgotten her dress was at the church for her to change into and had nearly gone into coniptions trying to find it. On the way out, she ran into the door, completely forgetting it was shut and wound up with a very attractive bruise on her forehead.
"Oh man!" she growled, and hurried out. Her mother had already left without her, and she ran to the church, talking to herself again. While waiting for a traffic light, she saw the same pedestrian from the night before, who gave her the same look when she saw her talking to herself. "I'm not crazy!" she snapped, completely edgy again. Tears were in her eyes as she was getting worked up and she cried, "I'm getting married, okay!" She broke down into sobs, feeling very foolish, and she heard the woman say, "It's okay. I've been down that road too, hon." She looked up and the person gave her a hug.
"Thank you," Reya sobbed, and hurried off to the church.
-
"There you are!" cried Reya's mother as she hurried in. "Your dress is all ready for you and... what did you do to your forehead"
"I walked into a door," said Reya, still crying.
"Oh, honey, it's okay! We'll put some makeup over it," said her mother, trying to calm her down.
"It's not the bruise mom. I'm so scared right now"
"I know. I know. C'mon. We got to get you ready." They walked over to the room the ladies were using as a dressing room. As she slid into the large white dress, it suddenly felt easier, and when she saw herself in the mirror, she managed to smile. It looked right, and it fit right.
"You look lovely," said her mother. "All ready now"
"Yes," she said, turning around.
"Let's take care of that bruise first. No need to let the congregation think your fiance beats you"
"I wonder if he's nervous too"
"Trust me, he is. When I got married to your father, he was so out of it, he lost the keys to his car, so he took a bus to the chapel. And then when we were in the 'Just Married' mobile, he puked all over the floor. Missed my skirt by inches"
"Bet that made for an interesting wedding night," muttered Reya.
"I made him brush his teeth five times." They laughed and finished getting ready.
As they were waiting to go down the isle, Reya muttered to herself, "Let's boogie," and proceeded down the isle alone.
She was so nervous, but when she saw him, wearing his tux and smiling lovingly at her she eased up... a tiny barely noticeable bit. While the ministor was speaking she wasn't paying attention. She was too busy thinking about things and didn't come back to earth till she heard him say, "Do you, Rachel Elizabeth Carmen take William Benjamin Wonka to be your lawfully wedded husband to have and to hold, to honor and cherish, in sickness and in health, for better or for worse, till death do you part"
She looked at him with a smile and tears in her eyes (she was greatful she was wearing waterproof mascara) and nodded. "I do," she said, a tear falling down.
"And do you, William Benjamin Wonka take Rachel to be you lawfully wedded husband to have and to hold, to honor and cherish, in sickness and in health, for better or for worse, till death do you part"
"I do," he said, smiling and looking on the verge of tears himself.
"Then by the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride"
He lifted the veil from her face and kissed her. The audience applauded and they walked back down the isle together, smiling while cameras flashed.
-
"Just to warn you, I have a monster bruise on my forehead. I ran into a door this morning." They were riding to the reception in the limo with a large sign saying "Just Married" on the back.
"I don't see it," he said, looking her over.
"I've got makeup over it," she said softly. He kissed her cheek and put an arm around her.
"Feel different?" he asked.
"Yeah," she said. "How so"
"Better," she said, looking at him. He kissed her again and they pulled in to the building.
When they arrived, it was like the world had stopped to admire them. Everyone in the room applauded and cheered, and they walked in, waving at them. "There's someone I want you to meet," whispered Wonka, and she walked with him to someone talking with her mother. The man turned and looked at them with a friendly smile. He had white gray hair and a short beard. His dark eyes twinkled at them, and she guessed immediatly it was Wonka Sr.
"Father, this is Reya. Reya, meet my dad," he said softly.
"My my," said the father as he took Reya's hand. "When I saw you come down that isle I knew you were the one my son had told me about. You're beautiful just like he said." Reya blushed as he kissed her hand.
"Thanks," she said.
"And of course the wedding dress was a big tip as well." They chuckled and he gave her a hug. "I'm sorry we couldn't meet until now. I've been terribly busy I'm afraid. Otherwise I would have gotten here sooner"
"Well, it's a pleasure to meet you." "Likewise," he said, smiling. They talked for a while until the DJ called for Reya and Wonka to come foreward for their first dance as husband and wife. They danced to, "I Will Be Here" and halfway through, the other people were allowed to join in. On the father daughter dance, Reya danced with Wonka's father since he was practically her father now, and they stayed till late, conversing, dancing, laughing, eating, and having the time of their lives.
Finally, around 11:30 at night they left for the hotel. As they drove off, Wonka sat with his arm around her in the back of the limo. "I have a surprise for you," he whispered in her ear.
"What?" she asked.
"Just wait," he said, seeming very excited. After a half hour of driving, Reya began to understand that they were not heading to a hotel.
"Where are we going?" she asked, also noticing the windows were blacked out.
"You'll see," he said, a mischievous twinkle in his eye. She shrugged and waited till the car stopped. "Alright," he said. "Close your eyes"
"What"
"Trust me"
She closed her eyes and trusted him to help her out of the car. "Mind your step," he said softly.
"I'm going to fall," she said, and he held her better.
"Okay, ready?" he said.
"Yeah"
"Open your eyes." She opened them and nearly fell backwards. "It's not a palace," he whispered. "But it's like a fairy tale"
In front of them was a large castle like house. There was a fountain in front of it with an angle, and there were lights around it, illuminating it beautifully. A large weeping willow also caught her eye, and there were two stone angels in a sitting position on the front steps. The sidewalk was brick, and there were lights all around so she could see the house. It was bigger than the one they had taken refuge in the mountains, and she could see the beautiful plants and flowers around. She could see the lights from an outdoor pool on the left side, a row of shrubs acting as a wall.
"Wow!" she gasped, tears in her eyes. He pulled her into a hug and kissed her deeply. He picked her up off her feet and carried her into the house slowly and sweetly. As soon as they stepped through the door, Reya knew she had entered her fairy tale castle with her prince charming and smiled, glad that this story would most certainly have a happy ending.

(A/N: THE END! Got plans for a sequel, if people aren't sick of this by now. But for now, I'm done for the summer, so we'll just see what happens in... September! I love y'all, and if you want to see a third, and more than likely final, part, let me know.)
