Chapter 23-
A/N:Sniffles: It's the last chapter, guys and at the end of this thing, there shall be a giant reviewer section and also this means I Am Angel Van Helsing will continue! I really had hoped to have this finished before this, but, shall we call this school year the "Year of Writer's Block!" :Dun, dunnn, duuuuun:Ahem: Any who, NOW here is the final chapter of Blessed Union and the actual, blessed union part!
Gabriel Van Helsing stood outside in the beautiful gardens of the park waiting for Anna to arrive, he fiddled with a box in his pocket, thinking about what Kate had said. He could hear laughter as Kate sprinted by him, all traced of the morning stiffness gone, followed closely by Kevin and the others. Anna walked, through the brick lined path surrounded by flowers and looking as lovely as ever, up to Van Helsing, smiling. She greeted him with a hug and a small kiss on the lips, which he gladly returned .
"You wanted to tell me something, Gabriel?"
"Yes."
He looked into her eyes and pulled out the small velvet box and kneeled down.
"Anna Valerious…I love you. I have loved you from the moment I saw you. I will always love you, will you marry me?"
He held her gaze this entire time, emotion filling each green eye. Anna stood, shocked, but it soon faded away and was replaced with pure joy. Tears formed in her eyes, tears of joy.
"And I have always loved you, from the moment I met your eyes. I love you Gabriel Van Helsing. Yes. I will marry you."
Van Helsing rose and took Anna's hand and slid the ring onto her finger and kissed her.
Kate and the others, looked on in silent awe as their two favorite monster hunters just said the one thing that was always stewing in the back of their minds.
"Carl."
"Argh!" Carl jumped sky high as he juggled a test tube around in the air, and shakily placed it in its rightful place. "You shouldn't sneak up on me like that!"
"Sorry."
"Forgiven, what did you want to come all the way down here?"
"Would you be my best man?"
"Excuse me?"
"Will you be my best man?"
"I-I, you-Anna-Married! Of course I will Van Helsing!"
He smiled to himself as the friar bounced away humming 'Here comes the bride.'
"Kate, Alice, Libby…can I ask you something of great importance?"
"Shoot Anna."
"Will you be my maids of honor?"
Kate stood stunned for a few seconds, dropping her books in the process before blinking at a slight pain in her foot. Libby and Alice only grinned widely
"There is no one else I would rather do it."
"We will absolutely be your maids of honor Anna!"
Kate and the others all piled Anna with a large group hug.
Wedding Day-
"I never though I'd wear tails again after that whole, Aunt Gladys Wedding incident." James said walking briskly up to his house.
"The punch didn't land on you." Kate muttered with a slight shudder.
The two cousins silently snuck up the stairs, Mr. Argery worked the night shift and so this caused him to sleep the day away. After Kate had read Bram Stoker's Dracula she began to call him Uncle Dracula, much to his annoyance. It didn't help things when he dressed up as a vampire for Halloween. They crept into James's room and Kate watched the door.
"Does you tux still fit, Jim?" Kate asked.
"Yes, the wedding was two years ago and I haven't grown an inch and you know it." James replied popping at the door with a slight glare.
"Ah yes, Tiny Jim." Kate smirked.
"Shut up." James said walking past her with a bag in his hands.
Later at Kate's house, she grabbed a dress and stuffed it into a duffle bag.
"Where did you get that?"
"Mom and dad got it for me for that dance at school last year…remember, I went with Kevin and the rest?"
"The one where you spilt punch on Stacy Leera's dress?"
"One after."
"Oh."
James and Kate sprinted back to the church under repairs.
Wedding day-
"Do you, Gabriel Van Helsing, take Anna Valerious to be you lawfully wedded wife, to hold and to cherish for richer or poorer and in sickness and health?"
"I do."
And do you Anna Valerious, take Gabriel Van Helsing to be you lawfully wedded husband, to hold and to cherish for richer or poorer and in sickness and health?"
"I do."
"Then by the power invested in me by god and the holy Church of Rome, I hear by pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss the bride."
Thus Gabriel and Anna shared their first kiss as Gabriel and Anna Van Helsing.
