Chapter Three

After a nice long week of planning and running around like crazy, they had finally made it to the big day. Carly stood inside a tiny decorative room as Sam took another swig of the wine that had been brought to them. Her brunette friend had refused to drink until after the actual wedding, despite the jumble of nerves building up in her stomach.

"Am I really doing this?" Carly asked for the hundredth time that morning.

"Yes Carls, its happening. You and ol' Davey are gonna tie the knot, attach the ol' ball 'n chain, you're gonna—,"

"I get it Sam," Carly deadpanned as she allowed the bridesmaids to fuss over every little crinkle on her dress. "It's different when you're engaged. You have the wedding to plan and it distracts you for a while from the fact that you're actually marrying this person. There's so much attached to that."

"Like what? I mean you and David have been together for a long time. About as long as me and Fredwad."

Carly's dress could be heard as she gracefully stepped off the stool she was on. With some effort Carly sat down next to her best friend and twiddled her thumbs.

"It's so final, you know? It's one thing to play house with someone and be in a relationship but to say you'll 'be together forever' is so…"

"Ridiculous?"

"No," Carly rolled her eyes, "It's a done deal, at least to me. I know he's the right one, but I'm so scared."

"Carls, you love him right?" Carly nods, "You couldn't imagine not seeing his mug every single day?"

"You're right. I really can't imagine what it would be like if I never saw him again," sighed Carly.

"It would be too painful to bear…" Sam mumbled, not making eye contact with the beautiful bride beside her.

"Sam?"

"Yeah Carls?"

"You couldn't imagine what life would be like now without Freddie huh?"

"I don't know what you're talking about."

Just as Carly opened her mouth to retort and pester her best friend the door opened and Lisa popped her head in.

"We're going to start in five minutes, your dad is coming now to walk you down the isle," with a smile Lisa disappeared out the door.

"I can't believe I'm really going through with this," David Shay said for the tenth time in five minutes.

He'd begun pacing back and forth like a nervous wreck as Freddie, Spencer and a few of his buddies watched. The poor guy had messed up his nicely combed hair which now stood on end, like his nerves. Spencer could do nothing but watch on as his—hopefully—future brother-in-law wore out the poor rug in the groom's room.

"Well you are so you'd better get a hold of yourself, son," commented Colonel Shay, who had somehow entered without making a sound.

While the older man tried to give David a pep-talk Freddie found himself feeling suddenly nauseous thinking about marriage.

What was he thinking? Proposing to Sam when he really wasn't sure at all if he wanted to get married. He thought he was, he convinced himself so many times that it was the right thing to do. But seeing David in a state of disarray he found that he didn't really understand the full implications of marriage.

He thought he was ready, it had been years since the first got together. Most people moved onto marriage after maybe two or three years of dating, at minimum. He knew he was pushing the hell at of eight years.

But were they ready to move there yet? He was starting to doubt it greatly, as he watched the madness before him unfold in all its glory.

David wasn't even married yet and he was more than ready to back out of the hole thing. Now, it wasn't because of that which led him to believe he wasn't ready. No, it was just awake previous thoughts on the subject and brought them to the forefront of him mind.

Freddie had always prided himself on being extremely intelligent. It was his thing, what he had going for him. But now he felt like a complete fool. He and Sam had a great thing going for them, why mess with it? Besides Sam would understand where he was coming from, she hated weddings and the whole circus that went with it.

"Stop fussing with your veil Carls," Sam snapped in a whisper, swatting Carly's hand away. Colonel Shay still couldn't look Sam directly in the eye, but he did manage to glance her way for a moment. He knew that despite the spectacle he'd walked in on that this girl was something special to his daughter. He could appreciate the fact that his little girl had such a devoted friend like Samantha Puckett.

"I'm sorry but it looked like there was a wrinkle," Carly whispered back as he heard the music start up behind the Beech wood doors.

"It's fine," Sam replied from behind them.

"Enough you guys, this is a special day, stop bickering," Lisa whispered from behind the third bridesmaid.

"Sorry," they both replied.

The twin doors swung opened and the circus began.

Sam found that she couldn't actually remember the entire wedding, just that he eyes kept traveling over to her nerd who didn't look half bad in a tuxedo. She of course had seen him plenty of times all dolled up but this was different. She wasn't the type to get all sentimental but she wondered what it would be like when they got married. How would they go about the entire affair? It was obvious to everyone that she wasn't a big wedding type, but she still wanted to make a party out of it.

One thing Sam loved was a good party.

Before she knew it she found herself seated at the main table at the reception party with Carly and David, along with Freddie, Colonel Shay, Spencer and Lisa. Off to the next table she found her father, Roger and Freddie's mother silently fighting over something on the table. They were always going at it though she and Freddie knew it was just their way of friendship.

Just as she was about to dive into another thought Colonel Shay tapped his champagne glass to silence the room.

"I'd like to just say how pleased I am that my little girl found herself a good man and true happiness. I wish you only the best. To the bride and groom!" he raised his glass in the air and everyone followed.

He gave Sam a nod and she too stood up.

"I know the maid of honor is supposed to give a bit speech but let's face it, I'm not a speech kinda girl. But I'd like to say that Carly is my best friend. I love this woman who's much like the sister I never wanted," the whole room laughed and Carly grinned at her best friend. "David, I know that you guys are gonna be very happy together and that you'll take care of her…or else," she gave him a look that said 'I mean it'. "Congratulations you crazy kids!"

Freddie was up next, but Sam didn't really hear what he said, her attention had gone straight to Carly and David, who continued to hold hands and stare at each other. It was something Sam loved to see secretly, because it was so foreign to see a couple really in love. That didn't include her and Freddie, because she was apart of that relationship, she couldn't view it.

Sam wasn't quite sure how she ended up dancing with Freddie, Spencer or her father but by the end of the night her dogs were barking! She slipped off her heels as everyone filed out to watch the happy couple run off to their getaway vehicle as everyone threw rice at them.

Carly caught Sam's eye and she smiled at her and waved before she descended into the car and drove off into the sunset with her husband.

Husband, the word felt weird even in her thoughts as the car vanished out of sight.

Panda Note: So…that was a super short chapter. I figured I should get something out to you guys. I feel so bad for abandoning this fic when all of you have been super awesome and reviewing. I think I'm starting to find my love of this ship somewhere inside me. The next chapter will start Freddie and Sam's stuff; I just had to get this wedding over with. Three chapters is enough for Carly and David, who are now off on their honeymoon. Please review and let me know what you think and suggest stuff, I think I need some input on where you think this should go, I have a few ideas but I love hearing from all you guys!
