AN: Finally, an update. This is probably the ast chapter for this story. Get to the end and you'll find a surprise.
It's today! I'm getting married in one hour. Oh god. I can't stop shaking. That's starting to get on Marie, Kitty, and Storm's nerves. Marie is my maid of honor, while Kitty, Storm, Jubilee, and Raven were my bride's maids. John's best man is Bobby. Jimmy is our ring bearer. Logan is walking me down the aisle since my real parents wouldn't come. Everything is perfect today. Storm is making sure that clouds don't come.
I'm in my dress. I'm ready. I think. I can barely breathe, I'm so nervous. My friends are working on calming me down. It's working a little, but I'm still nervous. It seems like a minute since I stopped looking in the mirror, but apparently that hour went by quickly. Logan came in saying it's time. Time! Ok here it goes. I stand up, ready as I'll ever be. Before Raven leaves, she turns to me and says, "Just think about this, you're about to marry someone who loves you more than he loves life." And with that, she leaves to take her place. I think about it, then smile and walk over to Logan, ready to do this.
After what seems like eternity as compared to being in that room, it's time for us to walk out. Out we go. Finally, I get their. John looks amazing in his traditional tuxedo. I smile and already start to cry.
It's time to make our vows. I'm first. "The day you left, I thought my heart had shattered into millions of pieces and would never be put back together. But they were the day I found out how much you loved me. I've dreamt of this day since then. And I have to say there were times when I thought it would never come. But it has. And this is the best day in my entire life, now and always." I was in tears. Then it was his turn.
"It hurt me so much when I left. It hurt me more to see the look on your face as I looked down from the helicopter. I hadn't realized my love for you until then. For so long after that, I was sad and in pain. I didn't feel alive. But I did every time I saw you. And now I understand the depth of my love. I love you with every part of my heart and soul, with every part of my being. And I will never stop loving you, Elizabeth. Never."
I thought I would drown myself and everyone, I was crying so hard. We turned to the priest, said 'I do', put on the rings, and kissed. I was now Mrs John Allerdyce. And I was the happiest person in the world.
The reception was wonderful. John and I let our friends plan it and they did a wonderful job. Our friends made their toasts. And it was time for John and I to leave.
We said our goodbyes, promising someday we would come back. We went on our honeymoon in Australia and came back. We bought a house in my old home town and always visited Xavier's School on holidays. We lived our lives happier than ever.
Ok, that's it. The end. Oh yes the surprise! If you like, I can write a sequel to this. It would be from Elizabeth and John's child point of view. Let me know if you would like me to write it.
