Three years had passed since Shane died. Residue were no more. Jordan couldn't bring himself to find another drummer and to be honest he didn't want to be in a band without his best friend.
He turned to the full length mirror and admired himself.
"How do I look dude?" he asked.
Ben looked up from his magazine and laughed "Like you're about to go to a funeral man"
Jordan laughed and flicked Ben his index finger. Today was a day he had been waiting for all of his life.
"Jordan are you ready?" Shouted Graham Chase. "We've got to leave...NOW" Graham was in a panic, he had to get Jordan to the ceremony and then rush to Patty's house to get Angela.
"Just coming man" shouted Jordan.
He ran down the stairs and out into the awaiting car.
Patty was fixing Angela's hair. "Honey are you sure you want it up?" She asked. She preferred Angela to wear her hair down, but who was she to argue when it wasn't her day.
"Mom, just clip it up!" Angela sighed impatiently. She was nervous, her dad would be here any minute and she wanted everything to run like clockwork.
Sharon handed Angela her flowers. "You look stunning" she smiled, with tears in her eyes.
Angela looked to the floor shyly and smiled "Thanks Sharon"
The church was filled with guests, old high school friends, relatives and a few memebrs of the press who still took a keen interest in Jordan.
Jordan stood at the end of the aisle, looking around nervously. Who the hell are most of these people he thought? As he fidgeted from one foot to the other.
Ben placed a steadying hand on Jordan's arm as the wedding music started.
He turned to look at the vision walking towards him.
Angela smiled as she met Jordan's gaze. He was wearing a Grey tuxedo and he had dyed his hair black, he looked just as gorgeous as the day she met him, if not more now.
Jordan gazed at Angela lovingly, he got goosebumps just looking at her. She looked amazing. She was wearing a white jewelled corset, with a long flowing white satin skirt. Her hair was pinned up and it's natural Blonde colour and she wore a thin diamond chain around her neck. In her hair was a small sparkly tiara. The dress clung to every curve on her body.Jordan couldn't wait to peel if off of her later on.
Angela looked to her father who was walking proudly next to her up the ailse. She saw the tears in his eyes and squezzed his arm gently. "I'm still your little girl dad" she whispered.
Even though Graham no longer lived with Patty he had seen the girls every day. Patty and he were divorced but they had both agreed that the girls would prioritise over everything.
As Angela walked towards Jordan she heard a small boy giggle, she smiled and wiped a tear away from her face.
"We are gathered here today to witness the holy matrimony of Angela Chase and Jordan Catalano" started the vicar.
Jordan held Angelas hand in his and smiled at her. She looked into his blue eyes and smiled lovingly back.
Shane looked at Ben and winked. He missed Shane, Shane should have been in Ben's place. He closed his eyes breifly and smiled, Shane would have loved to see this.
"I Angela Chase, take you Jordan Catalano, to be my wedded husband. For richer for poorer, In sicknes and in health , til death do us part, to love honour and obey..From this day forward and forever more.."
She placed the band on Jordan's finger, hand held fast to his hand.
"I Jordan Catalano, take you..beautiful Angela Chase to be my lawfully wedded wife. To love and to cherish , in sickness and in health, to love, protect and honour you..from this day forth and always" He said tearfully.
Jordan was shaking so much he found it hard to place the ring on Angela's finger. Angela giggled at Jordans fumbling and helped him put it on.
"I now pronounce you husband and Wife" declared the vicar. "You may Kiss the bride " he nodded to Jordan.
As Jordan leaned in to kiss Angela, he wiped a solitary tear that had fallen down her cheek. "You ok Mrs Catalano?" smiled Jordan
"I am now" She smiled as he moved in for a tender, lingering kiss.
The church erupted into cheers as Angela and Jordan walked down the aisle as man and wife.
Angela looked to Rickie and Sharon who were both openly sobbing and blowing their noses.
She smiled and looked to Jordan. His eyes were laughing and pride was etched on his face.
At the wedding reception, Sharon was sitting on a chair, cake in one hand and champagne in the other. Angela crept up behind her and placed her hands over her eyes.
"Chase, you made me Jump" she squealed laughing. Angela laughed at Sharon who had cream on her cheek from the scare she had given her.
"Nope, Not Chase now Sharon, It's Catalano" Angela smiled dreamily. Angela Catalano, sounded so right.
"God, this is going to take me a while to adjust to" laughed Sharon.
A little boy ran up to Sharon and started tugging on her dress. "What is it sweetie?" Sharon looked down to him. "Can I have some cake now? Purleaaaaaaaaase I'm starving" the boy pouted.
Sharon laughed and passed her son a piece of wedding cake.
"Always hungry that boy" she laughed, as the boy shoved as much cake into his mouth as humanly possible.
Angela nodded sadly" Exactly like his father. Shane never could have enough to eat" she smiled.
Jordan joined Sharon and Angela and smiled down at the dark haired little boy.
"Uncle Jordan, Uncle Jordan" squealed the child in delight as Jordan spun him around. "Hey there little man, leave some cake for the rest of the guests ok?" he laughed.
The boy looked up at Jordan with hazel eyes, Shane's eyes. Jordan grinned at him and said " Shannon Cherski, you're dad would be proud of you.."
Shannon looked up at Jordan and smiled, he liked hearing about his daddy. Jordan looked to Sharon and gave her a hug.
"We'll always be here for you guys, you know that right?"
Sharon smiled broadly and laughed" Hell yea, I got you and Angela booked for baby-sitting duties for the next few years!"
Jordan laughed and wrapped his arms around Angela. Shannon ran between them and tugged on Sharon's skirt again.
Sharon rolled her eyes in mock disgust and smiling looked down at her little boy.
"What is it now Shannon?" she asked.
"Mommy, I need to go poo" he said, crossing his legs and looking rather uncomfortable.
Sharon, Jordan and Angela burst out laughing and all said "Yup, that's Shane alright!"
Sharon took Shannon's hand and headed for the bathroom. Jordan and Angela watched her go.
"Are you ok honey?" She asked Jordan, he looked sad and she knew he was missing his best friend.
He nodded towards Shannon and turned back to Angela. "We ought to have one of those.." he smiled.
Angela smiled and said "Not just yet, I want to get used to being married before we have Kids Mr Catalano"
Jordan squeezed her into him and chuckled."Ok, you're the boss Mrs Catalano.."
