Chapter 35: The wedding
Diane and Carol definitely know their daughters very well and this wedding says it all. The décor was magnificent and it was a small intimate wedding. The color theme was of the couple's favorite colors, each other's eyes. They made it work. The bride's wore blue for Alex and green for piper. It was a baby blue and a pale green. There were white lilies and stargazers everywhere.
Jessica Wedge was also invited and her daughter is the flower girl.
Tonight though is the rehearsal dinner. Everyone wore all white and they were in a different venue. The room looked elegant and classy. This was due to the fact that their colleagues were invited but shit is about to go down once the guests leave. I mean come on, can you imagine Nicky Nichols acting all well mannered and ladylike?
"Okay kids we are off to sleep but maids of honors please make sure that the brides don't sleep together tonight." Carol reminded as she and Diane gathered their staff to leave.
"Oh we will make sure of it alright" Nicky said coyly and the others besides the two mothers knew what Nicky was thinking. The two mothers who were the last oldies to leave left and so it begins.
"Okay you guys heard it, No sex tonight." Nicky shouted causing everyone to laugh whilst Lorna playfully smacks Nicky on the arm.
Everything went on smoothly surprisingly they enjoyed themselves, even Nicky. Alex wore a sexy three piece suit. The pants were so tight and they hugged her in all the right places. The shirt left enough cleavage that was considered modest but as the night continued and guests beginning to depart, she unbuttoned one button and Piper was a goner. The jacket was had three quarter arms and her hair was let lose and straightened.
Piper on the other hand wore a tight dress that was just above her knees. It was a strapless with two lose strings on the left side of her thigh. What Alex didn't know is that Piper could pull those strings and they make the dress even shorter even though they are adjusted on the one side until late when piper thought that two can play this game that Alex started when she decided to unbutton her shirt.
Alex could swear that she can see Piper's underwear whenever she is dancing.
"Pipes…" Alex's voice was rapier and deep and she pulled Piper closer and she felt like she couldn't get enough until their bodies were flush against each other with Piper's back on Alex's front and she was grinding like there is no tomorrow.
"Yes Al." Piper's voice was also hoarse because she too was turned on but she tried to act all innocent as if she didn't know what grinding her ass into Alex's center did to her.
"Pipes I can see your…" Alex moved her hand to Piper's dress on the side that was hitched and she stopped dead in her tracks.
"Fucking hell Pipes, you trying to kill me? You did here the "no sleeping together" Rule right? Arg" Piper was not wearing any panties and Alex was about to comment about being able to see the panties when her fingers came into direct contact with Piper's wet pussy.
"What did I do Al? I did nothing wrong. This dress doesn't require any underwear because the seam shows on the dress and I don't like that." At this point Piper turned around to face Alex so she could bat her eyelashes and give her those bambi eyes that made her look all innocent.
Alex's eyes were dark with lust and piper shivered under her gaze. Alex pulled Piper into a hot, searing kiss. There were tongues and teeth involved, this kiss was not innocent at all and this one often led to them getting it on somewhere and they were about to sneak out and do that until…
"Hey break it off before you give everyone show. I should be the VIP and get front row seat alone first." Nicky shouted at them and Lorna smacked her on the arm.
"Ouch baby I am just playing. You know the only sexy time I wanna watch is ours." Nicky said looking at Lorna lovingly.
"Nice save Nichols. Next time you might find yourself on the couch and the only sexy time you will watch will be of me touching myself and you cant do nothing about it." Lorna said so only the four of them heard and the to-be wed couple laughed whilst a look of horror adorned Nicky's face.
"You laughing and this is all your fault for trying to sneak out. Okay party is over. Vause let's go… POLLY." Nicky shouted for Polly to come fetch Piper so they can go sleep. Polly arrived a bit annoyed because she was having so much fun.
"Okay Polly party is over. I caught this two trying to sneak out to have sex. Remember what Carol said so I suggest you take Piper to the hotel room and go sleep. They are getting married in a few hours so if you guys don't want to be responsible I shall be for once in my life." Nicky said with a smirk.
"You do know that Carol meant not to sleep in the same room right" Polly asked Nicky with an annoyed tone.
"Not sleep in the same room, don't have sex it's the same thing. And what got your panties in a twist anyway?" Nicky challenged Polly with a raised eyebrow.
"Guys you do realize that we are standing right here right? And Polly was about to get laid before you rudely interrupted if you must know." Piper said nonchalantly. Poly's eyes widened whilst the others laughed at her reaction.
"Pipe…"
"Hey now, now off we go like I said." Nicky intervened and dragged Alex away and gesturing for Polly to do the same with piper. They didn't even get a chance to kiss goodnight.
The first thing Alex did as she entered the hotel room was to call Piper, just to hear her voice one more time before she could sleep and Piper answered immediately as if she was waiting for the call.
ALEX: Hey Pipes
PIPER: Hey Al. I miss you!
ALEX: Sap. We just saw each other but I miss you too.
(Alex said in a teasing tone)
PIPER: But I didn't even get a goodnight kiss.
ALEX: stop pouting because I am not there to kiss it better Pipes. Tomorrow we will be kissing like never before, as wives… mmm even better.
PIPER: I hate that our friends know us too much. I mean we are in two different hotels for Fucking sake.
(Alex chuckled at this statement. She loves this woman so much, even though she acts like a kid sometimes. It's what makes her Piper, her Piper.)
ALEX: It was probably Nicky's idea.
("I can hear you, you cunt and it was Polly's idea. Of which I am mad about because it's a good idea" Nicky could be heard screaming probably from the bathroom from Piper's point of view.)
PIPER: I might not be at the wedding tomorrow Al because I will be in jail for murdering my best friend.
("You guys were going to sneak out and screw each other we didn't do this" Polly shouted into the phone)
ALEX: I don't want a prison wife Pipes so you better not.
PIPER: Fine I won't, but only because I don't want you finding another woman.
(Piper said with a hint of jealousy and possessiveness in her voice.)
ALEX: NEVER. You know you're the only girl for me.
(Gagging sounds could be heard from Nicky which made Piper laugh and Alex to top it up a notch)
PIPER: And you are the only girl for me. I cant wait for tomorrow.
ALEX: I cant wait to call you my wife. I heard that married sex is the best. Maybe we could break our own record of orgasms.
PIPER: Al you cant say staff like that when you are not here with me. I think we should end the call before I pleasure myself in front of Polly here.
ALEX: We would not want that now would we? Okay Pipes I will see you tomorrow.
PIPER: I am counting on it.
ALEX: I love you wife to be
PIPER: I love you too wife. You are already my wife.
They said their goodbyes and immediately fell asleep both imagining how tomorrow will turn out like and they fell asleep with content smiles.
…..8…8.8..8.8.8.#.8…...8.8.8…...8.m8m8mm…
They are getting married at a botanical garden and the after party is inside a conference room. Alex's dress was made of silk. It was a fish tail that had spaghetti straps that crisscross across her chest and back. Her hair was braided into a bun with a diamond padded comb like a crown adorning her head next to the veil.
She decided on short heels that were strapped and her bouquet had green flowers mixed with white. She went with a natural look for her makeup.
Piper's dress was a lace princess dress that was strapless. It hugged her figure in the right places and then flowed with a longer tail. Her hair was curled and tied into a messy bun that according to Alex only she could tock it like that and she was bias but didn't care.
Her makeup was glowing and her smile was so radiant. Her bouquet was blue with white flowers. She wore high heels because she loved the idea if being the same height as Alex.
The music started and the bride's maids walked down the aisle first. The doors closed for a few minutes before they were opened once again revealing Alex with Diane, hands linked as she walked down the aisle. Some people shed tears, some wishing they were Alex, others wishing they were marrying her and others wished to be in the spotlight.
They arrived at the altar
"Who is giving away this bride?" The preacher asked.
"Her mother, Diane Vause."
Diane said and then kissed Alex on the cheek and went on to take a seat. A few minutes later the doors opened again to reveal Piper in Carol's arms. Alex was frozen into the spot with her eyes fixated in Piper and nothing else. When their eyes met, everything else was just background.
They paid attention to each other and piper felt like she could run into Alex's arms whilst Alex wanted nothing more than to run and pull Piper into her arms and kiss the hell out of her. They both couldn't get enough of each others beauty and how lucky they are.
Finally after what felt like a decade, Piper arrived at the altar.
"Who gives this bride away?" The preacher repeated again.
"Her mother, Carol Chapman."
Carol kissed her cheek while joining Piper's hands with Alex's and then kissed Alex on the Cheek too.
"Dearly beloved. We are gathered here today to witness two people who love each other make it official in the eyes of the law. Love is a very beautiful thing to witness when two people really love each other and…
"Sorry but could we like skip to the best part? I am dying to kiss this beauty in front of me." Piper thought she whispered but the chuckles from the audience told her otherwise.
"And they are eager to wed too…" Another chuckle erupted.
"Okay so I believe you guys prepared your vows. Who is to go first?"
"Alex, from the first time I saw you, I knew I had to have you. The circumstances we met under where not happy moments but I am still glad that you found me and I am forever grateful for it.
From that day I knew that you are loving, caring, thoughtful, kind, amazing and many more good things. You showed me love and helped me learn how to love. You have been my rock and you love all of me without reservations.
I will forever be grateful for everything I got to know through loving and being loved by you. I vow to love you and never forget or let you go to sleep without telling you that, to be there for you and support you like a partner should. I don't know what the future holds but with you I am ready for anything coming our way. I love you Alex Pearl Vause."
Piper finished saying her vows and no eye was left dry, well except for the kids because you know. Alex was trying so hard not to full out cry her eyes out because she was so touched. Damn who knew getting married could make you a mushy love struck person. Piper was crying too.
"Wow now how am I supposed to beat that Pipes. Okay here goes… Piper, I know that the first time we met was not pleasant like you said. But for the first time in my life, I felt protective and possessive over you. I felt like I needed to keep you safe and I was mesmerized.
For the first time in my life I wanted to be with someone and not just for sex but to have a relationship with. I thought I was in love before for ones in my life but being loved by you taught me otherwise. I can't imagine my life without you and I never even want to think about it because you are all I want, who I want and I would do anything to make you happy.
You found me with nothing and made me into a somebody and for that I would forever be grateful. I love you so much and I vow to love you, cherish you, and always remind you of how wonderful you are. If I were to talk about you I would take the whole day but like you said, I can't wait to kiss my wife. I love you so, so much."
By now people's makeup probably need to be reapplied because of the tears. No waterproof makeup could handle it. It was so beautiful and emotional.
"Now the bride's said their vows. So anyone who think they should not be married speak now or forever hold your peace." Piper and Alex didn't even look at the crowd because they knew no one would dare.
"Okay now, Alex repeat after me."
"I, Alex Pearl Vause take Piper Elizabeth Chapman. To be my lawful wedded wife, in sickness and in health. For richer or for poorer, till death do us part. I do"
"Piper…"
"I, Piper Elizabeth Chapman. Take Alex Pearl Vause, to be my lawfully wedded wife, in sickness and in health. For richer or for poorer, till death do us part. I do"
"By the power vested in me by the court of law and the Manhattan Christian church, I now pronounce you wife and wife. You may now have that kiss you were dying to have." The preacher completed with a chuckle. The two wives kissed while the audience cheered.
Everything was done and the wedding moved indoors for the reception. Everyone was so happy and the DJ announced the arrival of the newly weds.
"Ladies and gentleman, I give you the Vauses." Everyone cheered.
"Did I ever thank you for taking my last name, Mrs. Vause?" Alex said with a smile that reached her eyes.
"About a couple of times. I love being a Vause, it sounds powerful. So now I am Piper Elizabeth Vause, a force to be reckoned with." This elicited a chuckle from the couple and they shared a kiss.
"You are not the only ones in the room you know. Like I was saying can we all sit down so we could get to the good part where I give a speech about Alex here." Nicky shouted into the Mike. Making everyone laugh.
"Okay everyone. First of all, on behalf of the Vauses I would like to thank and welcome all of you who could make it today. To come and witness such greatest love. My name is Polly and Piper is my best friend.
Piper and I grew up together and Piper has always been a happy person but after she lost her father and grandmother she was never the same bubbly Piper we all knew. I had thought I lost my best friend until Alex came into her life and brought back that spark into Piper's eyes and for that I will forever be grateful.
Usually when best friends meet their friends partners they threaten them with the, "hurt her I hurt you" line but with Alex I never did that because I could see that I didn't have to. Just by seeing the way she looks at Piper and how she made her happy I knew this day was coming sooner or later. Their love is so amazing that it inspired me and made me believe in love all over again. I love you both so much and wish you happiness and long lasting marriage."
Polly finished her speech with everyone shedding a few tears and the two brides gave her a hug each and then together. So much for fixing their makeup right.
"Damn it Polly, now do you expect me to top that. You just had to steal the spotlight of the maid of honor didn't you?" Nicky joked making everyone laugh and Polly to shout "I love you too Nicky" sarcastically.
"We no thanks Polly. Anyway time to be serious. Alex and I grew up together, closer like sisters and we always had each other's backs. Alex is a good person, man who am I shitting.
Alex and I where rebels growing up and we always got into trouble. Poor Diane. (Everyone laughed at this) Alex was bullied but she never showed any signs of weakness and just as I said that we grew up together I have only seen Alex cry a couple of times.
I have also seen her broken at her lowest as if she had no hope until Piper came along and brought her back. Not just her but a better Alex. Although she stole my best friend away from me. At first I had my worries because the two of them were from two different worlds but their love defied the odds and within a short period of time they had created a very special bond that no one could break.
Chapman, I mean Vause the first I thank you for bringing my best friend back and only to steal her away from me again. I think that is too much sappiness from me for the whole year so without further ado, let us have the mothers come up here and give their speeches. I am hungry folks."
Nicky made everyone laugh but that was through tears because everyone could see that the sarcasm was only hiding the deeper meaning of her words. The bride's hugged her separately and then together.
"I don't have a lot of words because everything that is important had been said already. I am very happy to have gained another daughter. Alex like I told you the first time we met, welcome to the family.
Thank you so much for making my daughter happy because that is all a mother could ever ask for her baby. Piper my baby girl, you will always be my Bumblebee. I am so happy for you. I love you both so much." Carol finished her speech and handed the mic to Diane as she went on to hug her daughters.
"Next time I attend a wedding, somebody please remind me to never apply makeup. I will just carry it in my bag for the photos. (Laughter erupted from the audience) Alex grew up with nothing and never did I ever hear my baby complain about anything.
The moment she could legally get a job, she would help out in the house than spend the money on herself. I had always admired you Ally cat and you kept me whole and strong by being strong. We have been through a lot together but look at you now baby.
I am happy you had found someone who loves you like Piper and as old as I am I never had such but to witness it through my baby makes it special. Piper my favorite daughter in law, I am grateful for everything you have done for me and my Alex, you and your family. You have shown us that humanity still exists. I will forever be grateful and please keep on making each other happy and never go to bed mad at each other. I love you both." Diane went on to hug the brides and retreat to her seat.
"Okay everyone. Piper and I would like to thank you for coming to celebrate with us on this wonderful day. Most of you have left your busy schedules just so you could be here and it really means a lot to us and we would like to thank our mothers the most for planning such an awesome wedding for us. Cheers" Alex spoke because she could see her wife was not going to speak as she was too emotional right now. She could not even speak properly to their mothers.
"CHEERS" clinking of glasses could be heard as people toasted.
"Okay good people. That was too much fears for the time being. How about we get the first dance from the newly weds as wives.
(Kiss me) song played through the speakers. The one that Piper recorded as Alex played for her on their first date and Piper was tearing up whilst Alex's eyes shined with tears. Alex had agreed to play it at their wedding because if Piper had not realized it yet, Alex would do anything for her.
They danced the afternoon and the night away. Although they did take the time to eat before dancing again. The brides didn't even have time to change into comfortable clothing.
