Hey all you lovely readers! Thanks for reading my shit, as I never thought it would get this much attention, let alone any. If you do like the fic, please lightly tap the fav and follow! It's greatly appreciated. I'll try to push through the next few chapters as I've gotten a bit of more inspiration for this one.
The wedding was a nice one. Compared to the last one Nick went through, it was a bit of a letdown, but he didn't let that ruin the moment at hand. He had, to say, a less than enjoyable time setting up the wedding with Cait, but just seeing her setting it up made it all worthwhile. He loved seeing her this happy, even at times when it seemed a bit like something horrible was going to happen, she charged through with a vigor Nick had seen only once before. The invitations were the easiest part. Well, at least for Nick. He'd made more than a handful of friends exploring the Commonwealth, although some weren't liked by Cait, she'd allowed them to be brought along. Picking the groomsmen and bridesmaids weren't difficult, either, which was good. Cait picked Piper and Magnolia, with the latter being her Maid of Honor. Nick chose Hancock, MacCready and Preston to be his groomsmen, with Hancock being his Best Man.
The wedding went by swimmingly, although according to the planning and what happened during, it shouldn't have. Nick wore a black tux that he bought from Myrna, who said to have "found it in her house", which weirded Nick a bit, but he bought it anyways. Cait, instead of wearing the usual white wedding dress, wore an atypical white tux, being the exact inverse of Nick's. He didn't mind. She looked absolutely stunning in it. Pastor Clements performed the ceremony, as he is the only one that had the credentials to.
"Do you, Nicholas Whitaker, take Cait… Cait… Miss Cait, what is your last name? I don't think I know it." Clements asked.
"You know, Pastor, I gave up my last name as a final spite to me parents. I don't even remember it, if I'm to be honest." She replied, a bit of venom tainted her voice a little at the mention of her parents. She had told Nick this before, when they got drunk together in one of the torn buildings in Sanctuary.
"Okay then…. Let's try this again. Nicholas Whitaker, do you take Miss Cait's hand to hold, now and forever, in lawfully wedded marriage?"
Nick looked into Cait's eyes as he answered. "I do, now and forever."
"Miss Cait, do you take Nicholas' hand to hold, now and – "
"Of course, I do!" She abruptly interrupted him out of happiness.
Clements chuckled. "Okay. By the power invested in me, I now pronounce you, man and wife. You may now kiss the bride!"
Nick pulled Cait in for a long kiss, finalizing their marriage. The crowd cheered, as Nick and Cait walked down the aisle together, towards Power Noodles. Hancock, MacCready, Piper and Magnolia were walking behind them, as Preston stayed behind a bit to chat with Clements. They took their seats, Nick and Cait had their first meal as a married couple.
Preston talked with Clements for 15 minutes about a possible ceremony between himself and Curie, and luckily Clements said he'd consider it, just because Preston is: "A nice, but annoying man". Preston started to make his way towards the restaurant, when he noticed a peculiar red-dot on Nick's back. He yelled at Nick and his pace turned into a brisk sprint when he heard a very loud gunshot coming from the bleachers of the stadium.
