"I am sorry Maura dear did you just say you were getting married in Fenway Park"
Constance Isles was sitting at Maura's kitchen island drinking tea with a shocked expression on her face. To her right Elizabeth Prentiss smiled into her teacup.
"Classic" Elizabeth whispered
"Oh just shut it Liz...Maura?"
"It is not so bad Mother, and it is where Jane wants to be married." Maura said nonchalantly as she moved around her kitchen. In just three weeks she was getting married and there was so much still let to do.
"Maura, really. This is just not acceptable."
At hearing her mother's tone Maura stopped what she was doing and looked directly at her mother.
"That is enough. I am marrying Jane at Fenway Park in three weeks and that is final. That is what she wants and that is what she will get. It is my life's mission that she is happy and never wants for anything and I will not fail her because you think the locale is less than ideal. Now who do you want to invite, the invitations are going out tomorrow."
"Maura I...wait you are letting me invite my friends?"
"Of course mother. Plus I doubt very highly Jane will mind seeing as we will need to fill a lot of seats in Fenway to make the place not completely creepy. Plus how can an Isles rent Fenway for a wedding and not invite half of Boston." Maura said with a mischievous glint in her eyes.
"That's my god daughter" Elizabeth smiled as Constance finally realized this way everyone gets what they want.
Three Weeks Later
"So Jane, how exactly did you get Maura to agree to get married in Fenway?" Fox asked as he was fixing his tie in the mirror.
"Um, I just asked"
"Just asked huh, how naked we're you?" Olivia said as she walked in with champagne.
Jane blushed and didn't answer
"I would say that by the shade of red she just turned she was very very naked" Teddy pipped in from the couch.
They all started laughing and passed the bottle of champagne around. "Time to get dressed sunshine...I hear there was a change in wardrobe since we last spoke" Olivia asked.
"Yes well...she did this for me I figured I would do this for her. I need some help though."
There was a knock on the door and JJ entered with Frankie and Barry in tow. In total JAne had 5 Groomspeople Olivia, JJ, Fox, Teddy and Frankie. Barry served as the Best Man.
"I still don't know why I have to walk with Francesca, I mean really." Frankie said as they walked in.
"You know Ma would have had a cow if I didn't have at least one cousin in my wedding, and I am only doing this once."
"Yeah yeah but why her?"
"Get over it man." Barry teased
"And why are you not dressed." JJ motioned at Jane
"I wanted to avoid the ridicule for as long as necessary" Jane grumbled
"She needs help...lets help" Teddy said as she jumps off the couch and runs into Jane's bathroom. "Oh my God"
In Maura's Suite
"What did Jane do to get you to agree to get married at Fenway?"
Dana asked as she was looking out of the window watching the gust arriving. In total 2,000 people were invited. It didn't take much to reach that number when inviting the Rizzoli, Isles, Montgomery, and Prentiss families. Although a bit reluctant at first, Jane agreed that having a small wedding at Fenway would be a little creepy. She also saw Maura's side when she mentioned how keeping the wedding a secret from all of her Mothers powerful friends would be impossible. At the end of the day Maura assured her that the people invited really did just want to wish them the best.
Maura had split the entire field into different areas and Dana smiled at how well Maura made room for everyone. The altar was set at home plate of course surrounded by white chairs that went into the outfield. The Bridal procession would enter from the bullpen to the awaiting Bride that would exit from the dugout.
In left field there were tables set out around a dance floor with cotton candy and popcorn machines randomly scattered throughout the field.
"We'll she just asked really." Maura said
Alex smirked and look directly at her "How naked was she when she asked?" And everyone laughed.
There was a knock on the door and Francesca entered the room. Maura had only met her once but knew that having a family member in the wedding was customary and she wanted to make Angela happy.
"Francesca welcome" Maura greeted her warmly. "This is Alex, Emily, Dana, and Addison...everyone this is Jane's cousin Francesca."
"Oh...do you have any high school stories about Jane." Addison asked
"Um"
"Addison stop it" Alex teased as she poked her in the ribs "if you do, I suggest you bid them out, you will get a lot of money in this crowd."
"Okay"
"Don't mind them" Maura said. She could tell Francesca was a little bit overwhelmed.
"Hey hot stuff" JJ yelled at Emily as she walked in. She wrapped her arms around Emily's waist and whispered someone in her ear to which Emily smiled.
"You too?" Francesca said as she pointed at Emily and JJ
"Us too what?" JJ said as she pulled Emily behind her. She recognized her tone immediately.
"JJ don't, this is Jane's cousin" Emily whispered trying to calm JJ down. Everyone heard the tone but was trying not to cause a scene.
"Nope sorry, I don't think she got to finish her sentence...Us too what?"
"You are...one of those..."
Maura was trying to remain calm she knew how important it was for Angela to have her family represented in the wedding.
"I would think very carefully about your next sentence because there are many of those in this room" Addison said as she walked over to Maura. "Maura darling its time to get dressed.
"This is unacceptable. I told my mother I would do this so that my Aunt Angela would not be completely disowned but this is unacceptable."
"Francesca I..." Maura tried to speak but she didn't really know what to say. Just then Angela walked in.
"Maura sweetheart it is almost time...you really need to get dressed..." She noticed the tension in the room and looked at her niece. "What is going on here?"
"Apparently you didn't inform your niece on just how many lesbians she would be hanging out with today and she is having a change of heart." Alex said as she walked away disgusted.
"Aunt Angela I know I agreed to do this for you so that you would not be ashamed but..."
"Ashamed, why would I be ashamed..."
"Oh Auntie really, having a lesbian daughter and not even inviting one cousin to be a bridesmaid..."
Constance and Elizabeth walked in when they heard the shouting.
"What is going on...Maura?" Constance looked at her daughter who was visibly shaken.
"Constance, I am handling this." Angela looked at Elizabeth and smiled before turning to her niece.
"Get out."
"Excuse me"
"I said get out. My daughters are getting married today. Yes Daughters with a S. I will not have or anyone else ruin this day. It may have taken me some time to get here but I am here now and I will protect them with everything I am. Even if it is from family. Now get out...and take anyone else who feels the same with you."
"I don't have to take this"
"No you don't. Constance you have security posted at Maura's door, can you please instruct them, to walk her out of here. I think Maura has plenty of security in here for a few minutes. I take it my FBI ladies are packing...even under those gorgeous dresses." Angela smirked at JJ.
"Absolutely" JJ, Emily, and Dana said in unison looking directly at Francesca.
"Now Maura, time to get dressed we have a wedding to get to." Angela said sweetly as she hugged her soon to be daughter in law.
An hour later everyone was ready and the music started to play. Maura shifted nervously.
"Do not even think about it, she loves you." Emily whispered. She knew how insecure her best friend was. She knew about her lonely childhood and she knew all the scenarios running through her mind right at this moment. "Ready?"
"Ready!"
Just then there was an audible gasp heard the bullpen. "What just happened?" Dana asked.
JJ who was the only one to see what Jane was going to wear smiled. "According to my watch that gasp was signaling the entrance of the other Bride."
"Oh...oooooohhh" Maura said "Let's go"
"Easy tiger" Addison smiled
Jane was standing at home plate. Her last minute decision to wear a dress was something she knew would make Maura happy. She also saw it as a gift to her Mom. She must admit she felt amazing in the dress and the gasp that she heard when she walked out made her stand a little taller. The dress was sleeveless and form fitting with an empire waist that was embellished with diamonds.
"Nice dress partner" Barry whispered in her ear
"Oh shut it"
As Maura and Jane saw each other for the first time they both whispered "Oh my god, she is beautiful."
The ceremony was over in a flash. With rings and vows exchanged and a very hot first kiss Jane took a deep breath and smiled wider than anyone had ever seen. Maura was very quite just taking it all in. Knowing they needed a few minutes alone, the bridesmaids made sure to let begin moving people towards the reception area.
At home plate "You are all mine now" Maura whispered.
"How very only child syndromy of you."
"Syndromy...really Jane."
"You know syndrome like"
Maura laughed as she realized she would have the privilege of having these conversations for the rest of h life.
"So what's next, Mrs. Rizzolli - Isles"
"What's next is I figure out a way to get you out of that dress."
Jane laughed out loud as Maura's hand covered her mouth immediately. Apparently she didn't that w not supposed to be said out loud.
"How about a first dance then we can see about the undressing part."
"Whatever you would like dear"
