CH 135

The next morning Sam calls room service before she went to have a shower. She just finished her shower and got a robe on then she walked back out into the room where she turned the radio on then she walked over to the window and looked outside to another beautiful day.

She was thinking about her upcoming wedding to Jack. She felt sad and upset that her parents declined coming to the wedding. She told Jack when she got the return invitation back, he pulled her into his arms as she cried, she knew that he didn't like the way her parents upset her.

Sam knew that Jack would try to cheer her up the best he could which he was able to get a small smile out of her. Sam thought about what Jack did to cheer her ups which made her smile. She was lost in through when she heard a knock on the door so she went to answer the door.

When she saw it was a guy dropping off her breakfast? Sam thanks him after he put the tray on the table and Sam sign the slip before he left.

She walk over and lifted the lid off the tray to see Pan cakes with maple syrup and bowl of fresh chop up fruit and jug of orange juice. She sat down and started to eat her breakfast.

When Jack woke up he was thinking about Sam and how he was looking forward to seeing her in her wedding dress. He was thinking about how he is looking forward to seeing her in her wedding dress.

He was also thinking about their wedding cakes and how they negotiated in what they wanted. They both chose chocolate and got the main cake and the other three is one strawberry, one caramel and vanilla. When he was thinking about the cakes, it made his mouth water and stomach rumble.

He got up and went to relieve himself then he put on a pair of jeans and tee shirt before walking down to the kitchen and made himself a cup of coffee. When he finishes his drink he puts his shoes on then he grabs his wallet and keys before leaving to go into town. He was meeting the guys for breakfast.

When Sam finished her breakfast, she got dressed and left to walk down to where the spa is. When she walk into the room her bridesmaids, Tracey, Grace and Ann were they're waiting for Sam

Sam walked over to the front counter and spoke to the women there. Then they all were shown into a room where they could take their clothes off and wrap a towel around themselves. With Ann she was given a sheet cause of her pregnancy.

They walked into another room where they would be spending the next few hours enjoying getting a full body massage, wrap, facials, the works. Sam even orders some lunch while they're for all of them.

When Jack pulled up outside the dinner the guys were waiting for him. He got out and walked in side and over to where they were and sat down

"Morning guys"

"Morning Jack looking forward to this after noon?"

"Yep" Then a waitress walked over to them. Jack ordered the breakfast special, the others also ordered the same. Then the waitress poured them a cup of coffee before she walked away leaving them to talk.

Ten minutes later the waitress returned with three of the plates. She puts them down then walks away then returns with the remaining plates and she refills their coffee mugs before walking away.

They look at their breakfast of pancakes with butter and maple syrup, bacon, eggs, hash browns and toast. They all talk and laugh while enjoying their breakfast. An Hour later when it was time, they left after Jack paid the bill then they headed to the golf course where they played a round of golf then they headed back to Jack place.

On the way home, Jack stopped off at a bakery where he brought filled rolls, cakes and slices. Once paid for, he walked out with bags in hand and got back into his truck and drove home. When they arrived they waited for Jack. When he showed up he put his truck in the garage.

Once he got out he walked inside with the guys following him. They all relax while having lunch then they play games for an hour. After Jack cleaned up he walked out on the back patio looking over the back yard he was lost in through till Mark was standing next to him.

"How are you feeling Jack?"

"Good at the moment, I was just thinking"

"About Sam"

"Yes, I was think about what she want to do, I'm going to help her in any way to reach her goals"

"Even if she in Houston and you're here"

"We know it will be hard on us both, but I think after she been out in space just the once, she would be happy then after that, she would transferred back here where she would work at the academy and most properly transferred to Washington, working in the pentagon"

"Well at least you both got that special bond and know where the other is"

"Yeah" then Jack look at his watch

"We better go and get change, the limos will be here soon"

"I'll go and let the guys know"

"Thanks Mark"

They walk in side and Jack close and lock the door before walking up into his bedroom where he had a shower

After Sam and the other women and flower girls finish having their hair and make up done, they all walk back to their rooms to get ready. When Sam was in her room she was getting ready when a glowy form came down from the ceiling and turned into human form.

"Hi, is everything ok?"

"Yes, I'm here to let you borrow this bracelet" she showed Sam a silver grey bracelet with a red orange heart on it.

"Wow thank you"

"I will return for it in few days time" she put the bracelet on Sam's wrist

"Thank you"

"We will be watching your wedding" then she went glowy again and disappeared through the ceiling.

Sam looks at the bracelet then there was a knock on the door so she walked over and opens it up

"Come on in"

"Thanks Sam"

Tracey walk in and Sam went to close the door when two workers showed up with boxes in hand

"Can I help you"

"We're here to drop off your wedding bouquets"

"Ah sure" Sam let them into the room

"Put them on the bed thanks" they walked over and put them on the bed and left.

After the door was closed Sam walked into the bathroom then walked out again with two bags in hand.

"I better get dress before the others come"

"I'll help you Sam"

"Thanks auntie" Tracey helped Sam get into her wedding dress.

When she was zip up and the to Vail's were in her hair, Tracey walk around and stop when she saw what Sam was wearing

"Oh Sam you look beautiful"

"Thanks auntie"

"It a shame Jacob and Elizabeth isn't here" she said sadly

"I know" Then there was a knock on the door. Tracey went to see who it was and smile

"Come in the bride is ready and waiting" they all walk in and were shock when they saw Sam

"Sam you look beautiful" one of them said

"Thanks, before we go"

She picks up boxes and passes them to each of her bride's maids and flower girls. When they opened them up then Bridesmaids got nine 8-8.5mm white freshwater cultured pearls that are set on a 17 inch 18ct white gold snake chain necklace.

The earring features two 8-8.5mm white freshwater cultured pearls that are set on an 18ct white gold snake chain. The earrings are 1 1/4 inches long. The bracelet showcases four 8-8.5mm white freshwater cultured pearls that are set on a 7 inch 18ct white gold snake chain.

The flower girls all got an 18ct yellow gold heart shape locker with their initials engraved on it. They all thank Sam as they put their gifts on. While they were doing that, Sam opened the two boxes and passed each of the bridesmaid and flower girls their bouquet then she picked her two up since one is going to be the throw over the shoulder bouquet.

"Well everyone ready"

"Yes" they all said then there was a knock on the door so one of the bridesmaid walk over and open the door to see a man in suit there

"Hello"

"Hi is Miss Carter is I'm the hotel manager" Sam walk over to the door she recognise him

"Mr Clarke is everything ok?"

"The media knows you're here they are all waiting out front"

Sam through about it and turn to her bridesmaids

"Ok I want you all to go out the front like what we planning on doing and if they asked where I am, tell them I'm at another hotel and get the bridal car to go around the back where Auntie Tracey and I will meet the limo there"

"Great idea Sam" Tracey said

"Thanks, you better go"

They all walk out of the room with the manager and walk out the front while Sam and Tracey walk out towards the back and wait. When the bridesmaid walked out the front the cameras and media took photos and they were asking where Sam is. One of the bride's maids stops and turn to the media

"She at another hotel"

"Which one?" she smile

"At the academy if you leave now you might catch her before she leaves" then some of the media ran towards their cars and vans.

She watches as they drive away and some of the media was still there. She turn to the driver

"Go around back" he gave a nod then she got into the limo and he close the door before he got in himself

They saw the limos left in different directions which they thought was odd. When Sam was waiting for the limo, she saw two photographers hiding in the trees. So just as the limo showed up. Sam made the films pop out of the camera before she and Tracey walk outside and got into the limo.

Then they were on their way to the academy. Phillip smile when he saw Sam get into the limo, then his wife

"Sam you look beautiful"

"Thank uncle" then they were on their way to the academy.

When Jack was dressed he walked down stairs to see the guys they're waiting for him.

"Well guys, shall we since out limo has just shown up"

They all walked out of the house and got into two limos then they were on their way to the academy when they got to the front gates, they could see the media there wondering who was in the limos.

Jack roll down the window a bit so security could see who it is, then the guy gave Jack a nod then turn to the others

"Let them through" then the limo went through the gate.

When the limo stopped a few minutes later they all got out and looked around to see some guests. Their Jack looked around and saw yellow and white bows and streamers between the chairs that go down the aisle with four by fifty meter green fake lawn carpet. There was a twenty by three-meter trellis with an archway walk through full of roses, so it would be hard for the guests to see the bride

Jack knew that he and Sam picked a good time to get married that weekend knowing it is the holidays and there would be hardly anyone at the academy over the weekend. Cars and limos show up so he waits till the guests walk over to him.

Jack spent the next hour greeting every one til it was time. Jack And his groom's men follow the minister up the front; all they could do is wait. Jack look around upfront he sat the three by four meter arch way with yellow and white roses all over it infront of him he knew that it is a good spot for when they take their wedding vows

When Sam limo and the bridesmaid limo showed up, the guard smiled and let them through the gates. Few minutes later they stopped behind the treacle and all got out. When Sam looked around she smiled and the SF gave Sam the thumbs up.

When they were all ready, Lisa gave the signal and the music started then they turned around to see Andy walking Tracey down the aisle. When Jack turned around and saw them, Andy gave him the double thumbs up and a grin.

Once Tracey was seated, then Andy walked over to where his wife and six-month-old daughter is and sat down. First was flower girl and pageboy. The page boys were wearing a blue suit, the same colour as the air force.

The flower girls were wearing white sleeveless satin gowns with beaded tulle skirts, yellow satin sash and bow. They got white and yellow roses in their hair and wearing the necklace that Sam got them. They were carrying a flower basket with roses in them. Behind the pageboy and flower girl is the bridesmaid.

The bridesmaid was wearing a yellow shoulder strap with a sweetheart neckline down to an A-line skirt. She was also wearing yellow and white roses in her hair and wearing the gift Sam gave to all her bridesmaid and was carrying white and yellow roses bouquet teardrop which was thirty centimetre wide and forty-five centimetres long.

When they reach the front, Jack and his groomsmen watch five other bridesmaids, flower girls and page boys walk down the aisle till they reach the front, then the music changes and every one stood up just and Phillip and Sam started to walk down the aisle. Both Sam and Jack could hear every one comment.

"Wow she look beautiful

"I love this dress"

"Jack sure is one lucky guy" Jack could see what she was wearing.

Sam was wearing a short sleeve ball gown made of the finest duchess satin. The bodice and scalloped neckline are adorned with embroidery, pearls and crystals. The extra long royal length train inlaid with English net features a beautiful satin cabbage rose where the scalloped train is gathered to form a bustle.

She was also wearing her great grandmother pearl earrings and necklace. Her bouquet was a mix white flowers teardrop; it was forty centimetres by sixty centimetres long. When Sam and Phillip reached the front, he put Sam hand into Jack then gave Sam a kiss on the check before he walked over and sat down next to Tracey.

The minister was holding a Microphone since there were speakers down on the outside on where the chairs are so everyone could hear them saying their wedding vows. Sam passed her bouquet to her maid of honour then turned back and held onto Jack's hands while looking into his eyes through the long vail. Every one heard them declare their love for each other and in the end they head the minister say

"I pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss your bride"

Everyone close to the front could watch as Jack pulled the Vail up and over Sam's head. He was able to have a better look at her as he let go of the vail. He could see white flowers and pearls headpiece. He cup her face then they both kiss and wrap their arms around each other

When they finally came up for air. They follow the minister over to a table where they were to sign their marriage licence, and then their best man and chief bride's maid sign it. After they each sign the papers, the photographer whom they hired took photos of each of them. Then they went back to where they were before and everyone heard.

"I'm proud to introduce Mr and Mrs O'Neill" Everyone claps and smiles at the happy couple.
