Part 16

Everyone was there for the weddingceremony and concert. My brother, Scaramouche, Meat, and the rest of the bohemians. Pop, whom I never met before, decided to do the "marital duties" as some sort of priest, and asked if he could give the bride a good luck kiss. Of course, the answer was "shut it".

Layne and I were both a bit nervous, but in a good way. We both knew that we wanted to spend the rest of our lives with each other through thick and thin, and that the love would never die.

The reception was followed by the concert, and my brother and I both rocked hard for the crowd.

Before I could leave the stage, my brother stopped me and replied, "Layne has a gift for ya."
"Does he now?" I asked.

I saw Layne walk over to the piano bench with a guitar and some sheet music, and he started with some lyrics from the singer I studied from my last song:

This is the start of something good
Don't you agree?
I haven't felt like this in so many moons
You know what I mean?
And we can build through this destruction
As we are standing on our feet
So, since you want to be with me
You'll have to follow through
With every word you say
And I, all I really want is you
You to stick around
I'll see you everyday
But you have to follow through
You have to follow through
These reeling emotions they just keep me alive
They keep me in tune
Oh, look what I'm holding here in my fire
This is for you
Am I too obvious to preach it?
You're so hypnotic on my heart
So, since you want to be with me
You'll have to follow through
With every word you say
And I, all I really want is you
You to stick around
I'll see you everyday
But you have to follow through
You have to follow through
The words you say to me are unlike anything
That's ever been said
And what you do to me is unlike anything
That's ever been
Am I too obvious to preach it?
You're so hypnotic on my heart
So, since you want to be with me
You'll have to follow through
With every word you say
And I, all I really want is you
(For) you to stick around
I'll see you everyday
But you'll have to follow through
With every word you say
An I, all I really want is you
(For) you to stick around
I'll see youeveryday
But you have to follow through
You have to follow through
You're gonna have to follow---
Oh, this is the start of something good
Don't you agree?"

Everyone cheered as I tackled Layne in a huge hug, and more cheers erupted as we both kissed for as long as we could.
