"I think I'm going to throw up," John said under his breath as he fiddled with his suit. It was the day of the wedding now and he and Shawn were both trying to get ready. Shawn was getting ready downstairs since he was overseeing the final preparations of the stuff that was being set up. The ceremony itself was taking place outside and all the folding chairs had been set up already. Two hundred people were coming and there were one hundred chairs on each side, with a long white carpet separating the both of them to make up the aisle. A beautiful flower decorated arch had been set up and the priest was already standing in front of it, observing the people as they took their seats.

"No you're not," Randy said, smoothing down his own suit before slapping John's hands to get him to stop messing with his. "This suit cost too much money you're gonna hold it the fuck in."

John shook his head. "What if I forget my vows? Or what if I trip and fall on my face?"

"I've never known you to be clumsy," Randy said calmly. He peeked out the window to see how many people had shown up. The seats were really starting to fill up now. It wouldn't be long until he had to get John outside so they could get the ball rolling."

"I'm sure there's a first time for everything," John muttered under his breath. He knew he was being stupid. They had only been planning this wedding for what felt like forever. He should have been more ready for this. "We should have just eloped. Would have been so much easier."

Randy rolled his eyes. "Come on now. You know that's not Shawn's style. He wouldn't be happy with eloping and then YOU wouldn't be happy because you are a sap who feels what his lover feels."

"And you don't?"

"Not as bad as you you sappy shit." Randy clapped a hand on John's shoulder and then pressed their foreheads together. "You can do this alright? Just breathe and pretend we're not even there if you want. Pretend you did elope and it you, him and the priest in Vegas or something."

"Think it'll work?"

"It's worth a try."

…

"How much longer is it supposed to be?" Mor asked impatiently. He was sitting near the front with Phil, Cody, Jay, Glenn and Evan. Mark and Jeff were somewhere inside since they were a part of John's wedding party as was Randy while Shawn had his brothers to make up his. Cheyenne was playing the role of flower girl while Cameron was being the ring bearer.

"Shouldn't be too much longer," Glenn replied as he looked at his watch. "Just be patient."

"Him? Be patient?" Jay snorted so loudly it caused a few heads to turn. "Please. Princess Morrie wouldn't know the meaning of the word even if it came up and slapped him right across the face."

Mor huffed and gave Jay an annoyed look. "Screw you man."

"Oh I know you want to. But I'm not into glittery twinks so you're just out of luck."

"Glittery twinks?" Mor about reached over to slap the fuck out of Jay but got stopped by the glare sent his way by Glenn. The Big Red Machine was under strict orders from Shawn to keep the others under control and he fully intended on doing just that. "Oh you are SO dead later," Mor muttered. He could have risked Glenn's wrath and slapped Jay anyway but he wasn't THAT stupid.

Jay just smirked. He wasn't scared of that threat in the slightest.

"Where the hell is Ted?" Evan asked, trying to steer the conversation on to something completely different. "I thought he was supposed to be here by now."

"He is here," Phil said. He turned back and pointed a few rows behind them on the other side of the aisle. "See? He's with his grandpa."

They all looked and saw that Ted was indeed with some old man sitting hunched over in a wheelchair. The old man was half bald with very light white hair towards the back and his face was pretty wrinkled and scrunched up and he had a big nose and a cane in his hand. "Ummm…that's not his grandpa," Cody said with a shake of his head.

"How would you know?" Jay asked.

"I'm his best friend! I would know these things."

Glenn's eyes narrowed and he leaned back to try to get a closer look at the old man. "That's a skull cap he's wearing."

"What?" Evan squinted his eyes and tried to look closer as well. "How do you know?"

"I just do."

"Well that's a helpful answer," Phil said with a roll of his eyes. "You're saying Ted is with someone in disguise."

"But who the hell would wear THAT disguise to a wedding?" Mor asked.

…

"They're staring at us," Ted whispered. "I think they know."

"They don't know shit," James hissed back. "Quit being such a damn fruitcake and act natural bitch."

Ted pouted his lips and slumped down in his seat. James had gotten his hands on the prosthetics he was now wearing to disguise himself as Ted's "grandpa" and Ted had been pushing his ass around, playing the role of dutiful grandson to as much perfection as he could muster. It wasn't like he had much choice in the matter. James had threatened him with all kinds of painful consequences if he didn't go along with it. He didn't get why it was so important that James attend this wedding. It wasn't like he was close to any of them besides Mark and Jeff. Only thing Ted could think of was that he hated being told he couldn't come so much that he just had to try to stick it to Shawn and crash the wedding anyway. Kind of shitty to do on someone's wedding day but Ted wasn't going to put up too much of a fight about it. It wasn't worth the bodily harm it could cause.

"Pouting like a child isn't acting natural," James scolded.

"Oh fuck off Gramps." That comeback got him whacked upside the head with the cane. "Ow!"

"Watch your mouth boy." James shook his head and looked at the people who had turned back to stare. "Kids these days. No respect I tell you."

….

Cheyenne came down the aisle first, looking absolutely adorable in a white dress with a flower headband on her head. She tossed white rose petals everywhere, smiling and waving to all the people she knew. Cameron came next, keeping his eyes glued to the rings he had on the pillow to make sure they wouldn't fall off. The wedding parties came next, Jeff preening for the people taking pictures until Randy slapped him upside the head, which earned him a death glare from Mark. Matt rolled his eyes at his brothers antics before giving him a look to knock it off. Jeff just stuck his tongue out in response and unbeknownst to everyone but Ted, James almost stuck his cane out into the aisle to trip Mark as he walked by, just to be a pain in the ass. Luckily Ted managed to stop him and everyone but him stood up as John and Shawn met up with each other on the back of the aisle.

"Hey babe," Shawn said. He had such a huge smile on his face that it was going to have to be surgically removed from his face. "You ready to do this?"

John nodded and took Shawn's hand in his. The nerves he had been feeling earlier had faded away now. This wasn't the big deal he was making it out to be. He was marrying the love of his life in front of their family and friends. The day was about celebrating their love and appreciating the road that got them there-the good and the bad.

"I gotta say I'm liking this black and white theme better than I thought I would," Mor whispered to Phil as John and Shawn walked past them. John had on the more traditional black tux while Shawn wore white and had his blonde hair hanging loosely down on his shoulders. "Shawn should have invested in some Rogaine though or something. His hairline is really starting to show his age."

Phil rolled his eyes in exasperation. "I'm sure he would appreciate your advice. Why don't you go say that to him? I would love to watch him kick your face in for it."

Mor pouted his lips and shook his head. "I was just saying the obvious. No need to wish violence on me."

John and Shawn made it the rest of the way up the aisle and stopped in front of the priest, clasping both of their hands together. The priest (a personal friend of Shawn's) smiled at them before clearing his throat and getting started with the ceremony. "Ladies and gentlemen, we're here today to celebrate the union of John Felix Anthony Cena and Michael Shawn Hickenbottom."

"Cena's middle name is Felix?" James whispered incredulously. "Oh my god he is never living that down!"

"Ssssshhhh!" Ted hissed.

"Now if anyone has any reason as to why these two should not be joined together in holy matrimony, please speak now or forever hold your peace."

"I thought that came at the end?" Jay said in confusion.

"Shawn decided to rearrange a few things," Evan whispered to him. "He said he wanted to get the objection bullshit out of the way first so he could enjoy the rest of the ceremony in peace."

"It's not even necessary really," Glenn said with a shrug. "Seeing as how Hunter's not here."

With nobody raising any objection, the priest continued on with the ceremony. "John, Shawn, marriage is a challenge unlike any other that life can present us. It takes love, acceptance, commitment and a willingness to work together to get through the hardships that will want to break your bond. Accept life's challenges with grace and dignity, and remember what is truly important: your love for each other."

"A fucking men," Jay whispered, getting an elbow from Glenn to shut the fuck up.

"The couple has decided to write their own vows, which they will now share with us all."

Shawn and John just kept grinning at each other and Shawn took the initiative to go first. "John…" Shawn took a deep breath and smiled at John even more adoringly "when I met you, I had absolutely no idea that we would get to this point. I still remember the first time I ever saw you. I was watching you wrestle Chris Jericho and you had on those ridiculous wrestling shorts that you don't like to talk about." That earned a chuckle from all the wrestlers in attendance and John's cheeks turned slightly red. "And I thought you were a cutie, I won't lie." The priest's eyebrows went up; he certainly wasn't sure what road Shawn was going to go down with these vows. "That was all I thought at the time though. But then I started to watch you more closely. I watched you evolve on camera-and then I got to know you off it. And I came to learn that you are one of the nicest, kindest, most genuine people I have ever met in my life. The more time I spent with you, the more whole I felt. I thought I had already had everything I needed in life before you but I was wrong. With you though, I am complete and today will seal the deal on what I plan to be a very long and happy life together."

"And if you're not down with that, we've got two words for ya!" Kevin Nash yelled.

"Suuuuck it!" more than one person yelled out, Mor and Jay being two of them and getting slaps from Glenn.

The priest grimaced a bit and Shawn shook his head while John chuckled and waited for everyone to shut the hell back up before speaking. "Shawn, I fell in love with you the very first time we met face to face." That earned quite a few 'awwws' from the crowd. "I had watched you on TV growing up and had always admired you, so meeting you face to face for the first time…it was intimidating. I thought I would just be meeting a hero, an idol, but you turned into so much more than that. You had this aura about you that woke something up inside of me and I fell for you so hard. Every time I talked to you I was trying so hard not to be a blubbering idiot that all I felt like was a blubbering idiot. But either I succeeded in not doing it and was just too hard on myself, or you love blubbering idiots." He chuckled weakly. Either way though, I feel so blessed to have you in my life and I look forward to spending the rest of my life with you."

The priest nodded and looked at Shawn. "Shawn, do you take John to be your husband? Do you promise to love, honor and cherish him until death do you part?"

"I do."

"John, do you take Shawn to be your husband? Do you promise to love, honor and cherish him until death do you part?"

"I do."

"Cameron would you step forward please?"

Cameron stepped forward and allowed the rings to be taken from him. Shawn and John put the rings on each other one right after the other and said "With this ring, I thee wed."

"Ladies and gentlemen, it is my honor and privilege, to present to you Mr. Shawn and John Cena-Higgenbottom. You may now kiss."

The happy couple immediately did so, shaking their heads as someone set off an air horn in the back in celebration. Wrestlers. They couldn't take them anywhere.
