AN: This is what we have been waiting for the wedding!! so enjoy and review!
Ch 18
"You look exquisite my dear" Grandma Emily says as I step out of the dressing shade wall in Lizzy's dress. It's the afternoon of the wedding and I haven't seen Tristan since last night. Everyone else is dressed and I saw cars pulling in all morning. I look at mom and she's crying. This is really happening.
"So can I please wear this one" I question and they all nod.
"Hair down with this" Rachel says handing me diamond choker necklace.
"What is this" I question.
"A gift from me and Derek" she smiles.
"Thank you" I say as she clasps it on my neck. My hair is down in soft curls and I have Lizzy's tiara on that I found last night. Makeup and everything is done. Something new in the necklace from Rachel and my earrings from Dad; something borrowed is the pin from Trix, something blue around my wrist from Tristan. All that was left was to choose a gown and Lizzy's dress becomes the something old. Mom pins my veil in my hair and fixing it to lie over my shoulders.
"Perfect" she says wiping tears away.
"No crying come on, I'm trying not to" I say hugging her.
"I just can't believe my baby girl is getting married in Italy to the love of her life. It's just so surreal how you got here kid" she says.
"They are about ready for us" Dad says coming in and stopping when I look at him.
"You look…" he says and I smile.
"Anything but fat would work" I smirk, the dress hides the little baby bump that just started. "Incredible" he smiles coming closer.
"You ready" he questions as we're the last two standing in the room.
"Yes" I say and linking arms with him as we leave the room.
We walk down the hall and down the center staircase and to the backyard. It was the longest trip to the altar. I hear the music starting and everyone stands, there has to be a good 100 people there. I glance up and see Tristan at the end of aisle with Kyle McCoy and Colin standing with him. I smile, but with the veil over my face he can't see it. Looking left, I see Lane and Paris standing there as bridesmaids. Everything is perfect. We arrive at the end and Dad lifts my veils and Tristan smiles at me. Dad kisses my cheek and hands my hand to Tristan. "Hi" he says softly and I smile.
"Hi" I reply before turning to the priest. He starts the ceremony as the sun begins to set and it's so romantic.
We turn to each other and exchange vows. "I have been in love with you since I was 16, that's a long time to wait for someone. At first you wanted nothing to do with me, we fought, we argued and then one kiss changed everything. We couldn't even look at each other after without thinking about that kiss. Then you surprised me and saved me from leaving you forever. You saved me Rory. At that moment I knew. I knew that I needed you, that I loved you and that no one in this world would make me feel the way you did. You took that faith and turned into this love that I cherish every day. I hated that I lost you, but now standing here, I know that I will have you forever and I that is all I need. You're my everything Rory, you're my heart, my soul and I love you" he says and I'm crying. Everything he said was true.
"There were so many times that I questioned myself in why I was with you. You drove me crazy. You made brought out this side of me that I never knew existed. I loved you for that. I never believed in love everlasting but with you that's exactly what it is. No matter what happened, or what is happening, I knew I had your love and I cherished that. I hide it away like a secret and never let anyone have it. But we've come full circle Tristan and this is where I belong. Where we belong, standing here next to each other, ready to spend the rest of our lives together and I love you. You are my everything. You make me feel loved with a simple smile or the tiniest touch, and I know that you're all I need. I love you and promise to love everyday for the rest of my life" I say crying so hard at the end that it's barely audible to anyone but Tristan. He wipes my tears away and presses his forehead to mine.
"I love you Mare" he says and he leans in kissing me. He wasn't supposed to, but he did anyways.
"I guess Tristan is skipping everything and going right to the kiss" the priest says and we break apart at the laughter.
"Sorry" he apologizes. The priest just nods and asks for the rings. Lane and Kyle hands them to him and I look down at them. They are Lizzy's wedding band and Strobe's wedding band. I glance pack at my father and Francine and they nods. Tristan does the same with Janlan. The priest blesses them and hands them to Tristan and I and we repeat after him that with these rings with pledge to unite one love, one heart and one life. To be together forever and that the love will never end since they are circle and circles never end.
"You may kiss the bride again" the priest says and Tristan leans in and kisses me more passionate then before but I don't care. The crowd cheers and spins me around showing off.
"Show off" I laugh as the flashes go off.
"Yep and you love it" he smirks as we make our way back down the aisle.
We take pictures in the garden with the wedding party and family. It's everything we would want. "You look beautiful Gilmore" Colin says as we step away so Tristan can take pictures with his parents.
"Thank you and its Dugray" I smile.
"You're happy and he's happy" he states and I smile.
"I really am Colin. Everything is finally how it should have been and I'm so happy that you all are here" I state. I saw the gang as Tristan and I were walking down the aisle and it felt good.
"We wouldn't miss it for the world" he states as Tristan joins us.
"What do you say we go eat" he smiles.
"Thank god, I think I was ready to fall over. Grandma wouldn't let me eat anything until after the wedding" I say and he looks over at Emily.
"You're pregnant, you should have eaten something" he says angry.
"Its fine, Mom did sneak me some strawberries while my hair was getting done. Honesty I was too nervous to eat" I smile.
"Let's go, we have people to see and food to get" Tristan says taking my hand and we walk with Colin and Lane to the white tents that were put up.
Dinner was amazing and we danced all night. I walked out of the tent to talk a minute alone. The bouquet is thrown and Steph caught it which was funny since Colin hid behind Tristan when it happened. I have so many memories of tonight and it's amazing. "Hey" I hear Logan say and I turn to see him.
"Hi" I state smiling at him.
"You look beautiful" he says coming closer.
"Thank you and thank you for being here" I say and he nods.
"You deserve all this. Tristan loves you better than I think I ever could. You deserve to be with someone like that" Logan says and I look at him.
"You did Logan, never second guess that. The love with Tristan is different. There's so much history and…" I start when he places a finger on my lips.
"Ace, I know, I see it when he looks at you and how you look at him. It's that once in a lifetime, perfect match stuff that dreams are made of. All I'm saying is that you deserve it" he smiles and removes his finger.
"So do you Logan" I smile.
"I think I might find it sooner or later, but seeing you this happy makes anyone think that it's possible" he smiles as I feel Tristan's arms wrap around my waist,
"Not trying to steal my wife already are you Huntz" he jokes.
"She's all yours Dugray" Logan smiles walking away.
"You ready to retire to our room yet Mrs. Dugray" he questions kissing my neck.
"Whenever you are Mr. Dugray" I smile up at him. "Let's go" he says grabbing my hand pulling me towards the house.
