I'm going to be completely honest with you. This chapter and Chapter 49 are basically fillers, mainly because I think it takes off a bit of the drama.

I hope I remember this stuff for my wedding someday. :)

The day had finally come.

Aerith stood in front of a large mirror, staring at her reflection proudly.

Her dress was pure white, a simple strapless where the front was decorated with tiny diamonds, an elegant crease in the middle. It fell down to her ankles, hiding her feet and flaring out sophisticatedly.

Her hair had been pulled back, held up loosely, her bangs kept strictly out of her face, decorated with small white flowers. On top of her hair, Shera's beautiful tiara, the one Aerith promised Cid she would wear on her wedding day.

Her lips were shimmering with glittery pink lipgloss, her cheeks had been powdered with about 50 shades of foundation and blush, and a light tint of eye shadow had been applied to her.

From her ears were dangling diamond earrings, bouncing around everytime she turned her head. Around her neck was a chain of white gold with diamond. (A.N. You don't know how much I love diamonds...)

The results were breathtaking.

"Aerith!" Yuffie ran into the room. She was wearing a lovely blue sleeveless gown. She let out a gasp and grinned as she saw her best friend.

"Oh my god," she exclaimed. "You look beautiful!" Aerith beamed, looking back at the mirror.

"They did a really good job," she remarked. She glanced over at Yuffie. "Are the girls here yet?" Yuffie smiled, but before she could say anything, seven young women rushed in, letting out shrieks of delight and running over to Aerith. They all hugged her.

"Oh my God, you look great!" Aerith smiled, looking around at them. All the girls were Aerith's age, all wearing matching pink gowns.

"Aly, Patricia, Lynn, Rosey, Sachi, Rachel." She smiled at the eldest. "Meghan. I'm so happy you guys are all here!" they all let out another excited scream.

"I can't believe you're getting married!" Aly said happily, taking her hands. "And I can't believe we're your bridesmaids!"

"And I'm your maid of honor," Yuffie said proudly. They all shared a laugh.

"Are you all set, Aerith?" Patricia asked. Aerith shook her head, still excited. "The limo's coming in 10 minutes!" Meghan rushed over to the bride, handing her a bouquet of red and white roses. She smiled.

"Red for love, white for light." She said. "Just what you asked." Aerith beamed and smelled the flowers. She let out a dreamy sigh.

"They're beautiful," she said, giving them to Lynn to hold. "Thanks." She looked around. "Where's Rose? The wedding's not completely without our little flowergirl."

"I dropped her off with Cid," Meghan replied. "She's already at the church." Aerith nodded. The bridesmaids gathered around her.

"So you're all ready now?" Rachel asked. Aerith shook her head again.

"I still need something to wear," she said. "Something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue. It's tradition!" She let out a tired sigh and sat down. Yuffie began to think.

"Something old…" she muttered to herself. She then clicked her fingers and pointed at the tiara. "Shera's tiara when she wore it on her wedding day. That's something old." Aerith reached up and touched it. She smiled and nodded.

"And my wedding dress is something new," she said, staring down at it proudly. She sighed. "Now I just need something borrowed and something blue." Sachi was pacing, then she stopped. She held out her wrist and took off her pretty bracelet.

"Here," she said as she went over and put it around Aerith's. "My boyfriend gave me this for my birthday, and I think it goes really well with your dress. I'm letting you BORROW it." She smirked and winked at the bride. Aerith smiled, grateful.

"Now for something blue…" There was a long silent pause.

Lynn gazed down at the bouquet, suddenly getting an idea. She looked back at Aerith.

"Hey," she said. "What was that flower you said always remained you of Cloud?" Aerith touched her lips thoughtfully as she tried to remember.

"I don't know…" she muttered, frowning. "Can't seem to remember it…" Rosey walked slowly over to her, a confident smile on her face.

"I do," she said simply. She held out a small blue flower. "Remember now?" Aerith's face lit up as she saw it.

"Forget-me-not," she breathed. Aerith gently touched the fragile petals. "Small, sad and lonely, just like him." She beamed at her friends. "Thanks guys!" She stood back up in front of the mirror as Yuffie carefully helped put the flower in her hair as the bridesmaids wondered around the room.

She let out a sigh as she finished and looked at Aerith's reflection.

"You really are a beautiful bride," she said dreamily. Aerith chuckled.

"Not as beautiful as you'll be on your wedding day." Yuffie rolled her eyes and they shared a laugh. Aerith exhaled deeply, still glowing with happiness.

"I know I'm ready for this," she said so only Yuffie could hear. "I just know it." Yuffie beamed and hugged her tightly.

A car outside honked loudly. The bridesmaids ran over to the window to see.

"OH MY GOD!" Rosey screamed. "The limo's here!" All the girls let out a shriek and scrambled blindly around in a panic. Aerith turned around form side to side, trying hard not forget anything.

"Oh my gosh, we have to go! Where's my veil? Where's my bouquet? Where are my shoes?!" The bridesmaids rushed to every corner of the room and collected the items, setting them hurriedly onto the bride as she rushed outside, with Yuffie at her side applying some more lipgloss on her, towards the limousine.

The driver leapt out of his seat out of the car and darted for the door, opening it for Aerith as she and the bridesmaids jumped in, one after the other.

As soon as the door closed, the driver started the engine and zoomed off towards the church.

Inside, the girls all sighed with relief, readying themselves for Aerith's big moment to shine.

The wedding of the century.

It's a feel-good chapter, I know. Alright, another chapter and it's not even 9 am yet, XD

Next, Aerith walks up the aisle. What could possibly go wrong?
