Through Thick and
Thin
Chapter 21
Jason looked at Courtney as she was walking down the aisle; he couldn't
believe how beautiful she looked. She walked up to him and they smiled at
each other.
"We are gathered here today to celebrate the love of Courtney Matthews and
Jason
Morgan," the priest replied. He talked for a few minutes and then reached
the part of the ceremony where they exchange vows.
"Do you Courtney Matthews take thee Jason Morgan to be your wedded husband
for richer or poorer, through sickness and in health, til
death do you part as long as you both shall
live?"
"I do," Courtney said as she placed the ring on Jason's finger.
"Do you Jason Morgan take thee Courtney Matthews
to be your wedded wife for richer or poorer, through sickness and in health, til death do you part as long as you both shall live?"
"I do," Jason replied as he placed the ring on Courtney's finger.
They shared a smile.
"You are now husband and wife, you may kiss the bride," the priest
said, as
Jason leaned over and kissed Courtney.
Jason then grabbed Courtney's hand and they walked down the aisle.
A while later.
"Here are Mr. and Mrs. Morgan," he said, as both Courtney and Jason
walked
into the reception hall. Courtney leaned over and whispered to Jason.
"I love you."
"I love you too," he said as he leaned over and kissed her. Courtney
looked up at everybody and started to smile. She was finally Mrs. Jason Morgan.
Courtney grabbed Jason's hand, and then walked over to the table. Carly and the
rest of the wedding party were sitting at the table.
"What a great ceremony it was," Emily said, "You
looked so pretty. So, how does it feel to finally be married to my
brother?"
"It feels great; I'm so lucky to be with him," Courtney said, as she
leaned
over and kissed Jason. Jason smiled.
"I'm the lucky one," he whispered.
"You look so happy, Courtney," Sarah said.
"I am," Courtney said. Courtney then turned to Jason.
"I don't know if you met them before the ceremony, but these are my best friends from high school, Sarah and Julie." Jason shook their hands.
"Nice to meet you." he said. He then grabbed Courtney's hand.
"Would you like to have this dance?" Courtney stood up
and smiled.
"Of course, I would," she smiled, as she walked over to the dance
floor and shared their first dance as husband and wife. Courtney put her arms
around Jason as they started to dance, and then put her hand on his shoulder,
and smiled to herself. She then saw Emily and Zander, Carly and Sonny, Alan and
Monica, and the rest of the guests on the
dance floor. She then started to feel funny.
"Courtney, are you okay?" Jason asked as he looked at her.
"I just feel a little dizzy." Jason grabbed her hand.
"Why don't you sit down," They walked over to the table and she sat down. Jason kneels down to Courtney.
"Why don't you have some water?"
"Jas, I'm fine."
"What about the baby?" Courtney grabbed a hold of Jason's hand.
"I'm fine, I just felt a little dizzy; it's nothing. I've just had a big day." Carly and Julie came up to them both.
"What's wrong?" Carly asked.
"We were dancing and then she felt dizzy." Carly sat down next to
Courtney,
and took her hand.
"I shouldn't have made this wedding so big; you are
probably really worn out. Maybe you should go home."
"Stop it, Carly! I'm fine. I just felt funny, but I am fine now,"
Courtney
said, as she stood up.
"Are you sure that you should be standing, maybe you should rest a
bit,"
Sarah suggested.
"Are you having any pains in your stomach?" Carly questioned.
Courtney
turned and laughed at everybody ask her all these questions.
"I know that you both are just worried about me, but it was
nothing. I think it was just all the excitement of the wedding."
"Okay, but promise me that you will go and see Dr. Meadows tomorrow,"
Carly
replied.
Courtney smiled. "I promise you."
"I'll make sure that she does it," Jason said, as he put his arms
around
Courtney. Courtney looked at him.
"There is really is nothing wrong."
"Please do it for me," he said. She looked at him.
"You know that I can't say no to you, I'll call Dr. Meadows
tomorrow morning," she said, as she leaned over and kissed Jason.
"Is everything okay over here?" Sonny asked, as he came up to them.
Carly
laughed.
she would go to the doctor tomorrow and make sure that everything is okay."
"Are you sure about that, Courtney? We can take you to the hospital now to
get check out," Sonny replied.
"No, how many times do I have to tell you I'm fine!" Carly grabbed a hold of Sonny.
"Come on, let's go dance again."
"I want another dance as well, Jason. "Jason looked at her with this
concerned look on her face.
"I'm fine," she said as she playfully hit Jason, and then grabbed his
hand.
"We are dancing," she said, as she dragged him to the
dance floor.
A while later,
Emily was dancing with Zander, when she looked at her ring.
"I can't believe that I am marrying you." Zander smiled.
"I can't believe it either." Emily and Zander then
started to
walk over to the table.
"So when are you going to tell everybody?"
"Tell everybody what?" Courtney asked, as her and Jason returned to
the
table. Emily looked up at Courtney.
"I don't know if this is the right time to tell everybody as this is your wedding day. I don't want to spoil it with my news." Courtney laughed.
"What's the news? Tell me!"
Zander grabbed Emily's hand. "Tell them," he whispered. She smiled.
"Okay, Zander and I are engaged." Courtney hugged Emily.
"That is great news, I'm so happy for you," Jason looked at Zander and Emily, but didn't say anything.
"I know that you don't like Zander, Jason but I love him, and
I want to spend the rest of my life
with him, so you are going to have to get use to it." Courtney looked at
Jason.
"They are in love, like we are. Remember when Sonny didn't
want us to be together, but it didn't stop us from being together, did
it?" Courtney replied, as she put her arms around him.
Jason looked at Courtney and nodded.
"I'm happy for you, Emily, if he is the one that you want to
be with, I'm not going to stop you," he said, as he hugged Emily.
"Thanks, Courtney," Emily said, smiling.
"It's nothing, Emily. You are my sister in law now." Carly came up to them.
"It's time for the cake," she said. Courtney smiled.
"Great," she said as Jason and her
went over to the cake.
An hour later,
Courtney was chatting with Monica and Alan.
"I'm glad that my son found you; I hope he is very
happy," Monica replied.
"I am," Jason said. Monica then hugged her son.
"And you take of this one, she is carrying our grandchildren," Alan
replied.
Jason and Courtney both looked at each other and grinned. Alan and Monica
then left them alone. Courtney started to yawn.
"I'm starting to get tired. Do you think Carly would notice
if we left?"
"What you are going to leave now?" Carly asked as she came up to
Courtney
and Jason. Courtney looked at Carly.
"Thanks you for doing such a great wedding. This is exactly what I wanted, but I am starting to get really tired, and you don't want me to get worn out do you. I am pregnant."
Carly laughed. "I understand, "she said, as she hugged
her, "Don't forgot
what you promise me."
"I know that I have to go to Dr. Meadows tomorrow, I will." Sarah and
Julie showed up.
"We overheard that you are leaving now, this was the best
wedding that I have been to." Julie replied, "You did a great job,
Carly."
"Thank you," Carly said, grinning.
"When are you going back home?" Courtney
asked.
"Tomorrow night," Julie replied.
"Well come by my place before you all leave, so I can say one last
goodbye,"
Courtney said. They nodded.
"We will."
As Courtney and Jason bean walking out of the reception hall
everyone started throwing rice at them.
A while later,
Jason and Courtney show up at the loft. Jason then picked up Courtney.
"You don't have to this, Jas."
"But it is our wedding day; I thought you would want everything to be
perfect."
"I do," she said, as she leaned over and kissed him, and then went
into
their loft, and spent the night together as husband and wife.
The next morning,
Courtney was getting dressed when Jason woke up.
"Good morning, Mrs. Morgan," he said. She looked at him, and smiled.
"Morning, Mr. Morgan," she said laughing, as she put her shirt on, "So I called Dr. Meadows and she said that she can see us at 10am. Do you think that you can make it with me, or do you have to do something for Sonny?" Jason stood up and walked over to Courtney.
"Of course I can go with you. You aren't worried that something is wrong, are you?" Courtney grinned.
"No of course, I just would like you to be there with
me."
Jason grabbed a hold of her hand.
"Well then I will be there with you. I'll go get ready,"
he said.
"Wait," she said, as she leaned over and kissed him. "I love
you, Jason
Morgan."
"I love you, Courtney Morgan," he said, as he walked towards the
bathroom.
She looked at him, as he closed the door behind him. She smiled to herself.
She was so happy that they were finally married.
She then walked over to the kitchen and got something to eat and walked over
to the couch and then she touched her stomach.
"So I'm finally married to your dad. It is the best thing
that I ever did. He is such a sweet guy; he is going to be the best dad ever.
He'll do anything for you no matter what it is."
"Courtney, are you talking to the baby again?" Jason asked, as he
came out
of the bathroom. She laughed.
"It is good to talk to the baby, I hear you at night sometime talking to the baby. You think I don't hear you, but I do." Jason walked over to Courtney and sat down next to her.
"Okay maybe I talk once or twice, not as often you do," Courtney smiled.
"Okay fine, if that is what you want to believe that is fine
with me, "she said as she leaned over and kissed Jason.
"Just so you know, I love you talking to our baby," Jason replied,
grinning. "Now we bet get to Dr. Meadows."
Courtney and Jason are waiting in the room when Dr. Meadows come in.
"Good morning, Courtney, so how are you doing?" she asked as she sat
down.
"I'm doing great, I was dizzy yesterday at my wedding, and Carly wanted me
to come and make sure that everything was okay, but I know that nothing is
wrong."
She hoped that she was right and nothing was wrong with the baby.
"Congratulations on your wedding. It was good that you came to see me. Why
don't we see your baby as we should be able to see the baby better now. You are 5
months now," Dr. Meadows said. The doctor then looked at the ultrasound.
"Oh," she said sounding surprised. Courtney grabbed a hold of Jason's hand.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with my child? Please tell me." Jason looked at Courtney.
"Everything is going to be fine, just let the doctor tell us what's wrong and we will deal with it." Dr. Meadows looked at Courtney and Jason.
"Nothing is wrong with your baby, or should I say babies." Courtney looked at the doctor with this confused look on her face.
"Babies?"
"Yes, one of the heartbeats has been
hiding; you are going to have twins."
