AN: Well, here it is! The final chapter! I'm already working on the first chapter of I'll Trust You Forever. Yes, I changed the title; the French thing was to long to type. Note: Sore Ga Ai Deshou is Japanese for I guess, it's love.
CHAPTER 10 : SORE GA, AI DESHOU (THE WEDDING PART 2)
The church looked immaculate, but it looked dull in comparison to the beauty of both of the brides. Matsuri nervously twiddled her thumbs as she looked at Riza.
"I-I can't do this…" she nervously stated.
"Yes you can…its just nerves…" The older woman, Hikaru, Rizas mother, consoled young Matsuri, "It's the best thing you can ever do…trust me" She warmly smiled with the smile only a mother could have.
"Thanks Hikaru…"
"No problem, kid"
Matsuri watched as Riza walked down the aisle, the nerves became stronger and stronger until she had to look away.
"Roy Mustang, do you take, thee, Elizabeth Hawkeye, to be your lawfully wedded wife, to love and to cherish, to have and to hold, in sickness and health until death do you part?" The preacher spoke.
"I do" Roy responded, the preacher turned to Riza.
"Elizabeth Hawkeye, do you take Roy Mustang to be your lawfully wedded husband, to love and to cherish, to have and to hold, in sickness and health until death do you part?"
"I do"
"Is there anyone who objects to the marriage of these two? Speak now or forever hold your peace."
Silence.
"Riza, Roy, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride"
They kissed, a moment that would last forever in the minds of Roy Mustang, and Riza, now, Mustang.
Matsuri took a deep breath as the music started, It's now or never…She thought, as she took those steps down the aisle.
Step.
Stop.
Step.
Stop.
Step.
Stop.
Step.
Stop.
Step.
Stop.

Stop.

Stop.

Stop.

Stop.

All the way to the alter, where Edward Elric awaited her, he smiled at her beauty as they stood next to each other.
The preacher looked at the two, and smiled warmly, Matsuri blushed as he winked at her.
"Today we…." The preacher continued on forever until the moment finally came.
"Edward Elric, do you take, Matsuri Hughes as your lawfully wedded wife, to love and to cherish, to have and to hold, in sickness and health until death do you part?"
"I do." Ed responded, the preacher turned to Matsuri, who was as nervous as all get out.
"Matsuri Hughes, do you take, Edward Elric, as your lawfully wedded husband, to love and to cherish, to have and to hold, in sickness and health until death do you part?"
Silence.
More silence, Ed looked over at her, worried.
"I…I do" She finally got the words to come out of her dry mouth, as tears fell.
"Is there anyone here who objects to the marriage of these two? Speak now or forever hold your peace."
Silence.
"Edward Elric, Matsuri Hughes, I now pronounce you Husband and wife. You may kiss the bride."
Ed took Matsuri in his arms and held her close, he whispered in her ear. "Ich liebe dich" (German for I love you) as he kissed her passionately.
She returned the kiss as the tears fell, for the first time in her life, she felt complete.
"I love you Ed" She whispered into his shoulder, "I love you…so much…"
"And I you Matsuri, and I you" He returned as he stroked her long, black, silky hair.
Hughes smiled through his tears as did Elysia.
That night found Matsuri and Ed in their room with the lights turned down low. He kissed her passionately.
"I'll never leave your side Matsuri…I swear it…I'll be with you…always…"
She sat up, "wait Ed…before we do this…two things…one, I don't want a boy yet, and I want you to listen to this song…my mother always used to sing it to me…it reminds me of the feeling I get when I get when I'm with you…"
Ed laughed at the first comment, "Ok, lets hear it."
She closed her eyes as she sang…
"Tatoeba nenamida ga koboreru hi ni wa

"You have a beautiful voice"
"Thanks" She smiled as she lay back down, kissing Ed once again.
The rest of the night…was bliss…
Weeks later, Matsuri ran into the living room where Ed and Maes were talking.
"Matsuri? What's wrong?" Maes asked.
She looked at Ed.
Silence.
More silence.
Cricket.
"I…I'm…."
"You're what? Sick?" Ed questioned
"No" she replied
"cold?"
"No"
"Uh…I'm outta ideas then…"
"I'm pregnant!"
Maes jaw fell to the floor.
But as for poor Ed, that was the last thing he remembered…until he awoke a few hours later.
