"Well," said Selina with a long sigh, "I don't see the point in throwing a huge wedding when all we're doing is checking married on all the bills."

"The point, Selina, is that getting married is more than checking a box, it's making a life time commitment to someone you love and making a promise to be by each other's side no matter what." said Bruce climbing into bed with Selina.

The wedding was only four days away and as much as Selina did not want to admit, she was more nervous than she was the first day she became a theif.

"Is that another way of saying you're afraid of me leaving you?" Selina joked.

"Maybe." Bruce said looking straight into Selina's eyes.

Suddenly, Selina wasn't as nervous as she was two seconds ago. In her heart, she felt like she was doing the right thing. After all, she thought. Bruce is the best thing to ever happen to me. I don't know where I'd be without him.

Selina sighed. "I just think we should have a small wedding, why can't we get hitched in Vegas?"

Bruce laughed. "You know why. We have to keep up the appearance of billionaire Bruce Wayne, the total douche bag."

"Why?" Selina asked.

"To keep anyone from being suspicious." Bruce answered.

"No, I mean why do we have to make Bruce Wayne a total douche bag? Why can't we let people know he's an amazing man who cares for the citizens of Gotham?" Selina asked in a serious tone.

Bruce hesitated. "The more people think I'm a douche bag, the less they think about who I really am." he said covering himself with the blankets.

Selina looked at Bruce for a while. "If they think you're a douche bag, what will they think of me?"

Bruce looked back at Selina. "They will think you're exactly the person a douche bag needs, one who will melt that icy heart of his."

Selina blushed and turned away. "Goodnight Bruce." she said reaching for the lamp.

"I love you." Bruce said in the dark, reaching over to wrap his arms around Selina.

Selina stared in the dark for a second. "I love you too." she finally said.

He may be the best thing to ever happen to me, she thought again. But will I be the best thing for him?

The next day seemed like a long one to both Bruce and Selina. They did nothing but plan the wedding and they had less and less time to train. Selina was getting fed up with all the news headlines about Selina's supposedly secret past, they were all wrong, making claims about how Selina was an ex-prostitute or how Selina was a gold digger. Suddenly she felt regret about using the clean swipe to wipe her record, she thought being known as a thief was better than any of the headlines in the news.

The day after that, Bruce had his suit fitted for the last time and Selina had her gown sewn shorter, she didn't like the idea of having it white either, she didn't think it was appropriate. Bruce and Selina both realized how many friends they really had and there wasn't many for Bruce and none at all for Selina. Jen, the only friend Selina had had in the past five years, left her after Selina 'betrayed' her and her people. Selina felt saddened that she had no maid of honor but didn't want to admit it. Bruce's only real friend he'd had was John and had him as the best man after Alfred declined the position.

Finally, it was the day before the wedding. John had been trying to convince Bruce to have a bachelor party but Bruce always told him no, this time, John wasn't going to take no for an answer and went up to Bruce to tell him. He was considering blindfolding him and knocking him out before they left so he wouldn't have to do ask him but he knew the tables would turn on him.

"Bruce," John said in a serious tone walking up to Bruce who was reading over his vows. "I need to talk to you."

"I already know what you're going to say and the answer is still no." Bruce said without looking up.

"I don't care, we're going, the car's waiting outside so let's go." John said looking sternly at Bruce.

Bruce looked up. "There's no point in bachelor parties and I don't even know why you want to have one."

"You're getting married tomorrow, let's just take a break from all this wedding planning and have some fun." John said.

"I don't like fun." Bruce said walking away from John. "Selina will be left alone if I leave."

"She's got Alfred, who insisted we go on our own, by the way." John said catching up to Bruce. Bruce ignored John. "C'mon, we'll just have a few beers, maybe a few shots and see where the night takes us."

Bruce gave John a serious face and sighed. "Fine, but we'll be home by ten, I can't be out all night."

"Okay, dad." John said putting his hand on his shoulder.

Bruce slapped John's hand off and turned to him. "Don't call me dad."

John laughed.

Bruce and John came home half an hour past midnight, they had more than a few shots and Bruce regretted it. John felt like he did good on his position as best man and hoped Bruce wouldn't remember what happened that night, it was a side of Bruce John's never seen before and hoped he could keep it as black mail for one day. John's never laughed harder.

Bruce opened the door to his room, stood in the doorway, and looked at Selina who was asleep in the bed. Bruce felt happier than he had in a long time.

"You know, sir." Alfred said quietly walking up the Bruce. "I do believe I told you to sleep in the bedroom across the hall. It's bad luck to see the bride before the ceremony."

"Huh? Oh yeah. I just wanted to see my wife—uh fiancé." Bruce said trying to keep his head straight.

"Master John went straight to his bed with his clothes and shoes still on, I'll assume you two had one too many drinks?" Alfred said eyeing Bruce who couldn't stand up straight.

"Uh yeah, listen Alfred make me some of that tea when I wake up." Bruce said walking away. "Everything's spinning, is that normal?"

"Master Bruce?" Alfred said walking to Bruce.

"Yes?" Bruce said.

"That's the guest bathroom." Alfred said, trying not to laugh.

Bruce walked out and walked into the room across it. "Whoops."

It was finally the day of the wedding, everything was ready except Selina. The wedding was being held in the back yard of the Wayne manor and everything was decorated beautifully. Selina felt sick to her stomach. She stared at her reflection on the mirror with her wedding dress on and her hair up in a bun. She's never felt so alone. I can't do this. she kept thinking. She thought about running away, starting over in a new place but she couldn't bring herself to do that to Bruce. Someone knocked on her door. She was startled.

"Miss Kyle? Everything's ready, let me know when you're okay to come out." said Alfred through the door.

"Alfred! Please come in, I'm almost ready." Selina said, she needed someone desperately.

Alfred opened the door with a hand covering his eyes. Selina smiled. "I'm dressed, Alfred."

Alfred took his hands off and smiled at Selina. "You look beautiful, miss Kyle."

Selina smiled. "Alfred, if we're going to make this work, you have to call me by my first name."

"I don't think so miss Kyle." Alfred said.

Selina laughed. "Alfred, how many people are out there?"

"Only thirty-six, all complete strangers to you, except the commissioner." Alfred said.

Selina sighed. Alfred could see she was nervous and walked closer to her. "You know, Bruce is as nervous as you are, maybe more."

"Bruce, nervous? I bet he's done things more nerve wrecking than getting married." Selina said.

"Oh he has, but to him, this day means more than any of those things. He loves you, you know." he said. Selina looked down. "I promise you, miss Kyle, as soon as you walk out there, nothing will matter more than being with master Bruce. You've saved an entire city by defeating the terrorist who threatened it and helped deactivate a nuclear bomb, I am more than sure you can do this."

Suddenly Selina felt a weight lift off her shoulders. He's right. she thought. She looked at Alfred. "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Alfred smiled.

"You know, I've never properly asked you but, would you mind giving me away to Bruce?" Selina said offering her hand to Alfred.

"It would be my honor." Alfred said taking her hand and walking towards the back yard.

Bruce looked at John. "Are you sure everything looks perfect?"

"Yes, Bruce, you look perfect and everyone won't be able to take their eyes off you." John said sarcastically.

Bruce rolled his eyes. Calm down. he thought. You've done a lot of things more scary than getting married.

"There she is." John said looking towards the back at the same time the music started playing.

Bruce's heart was pounding and he was breathless as he laid his eyes on Selina, she looked beautiful. She felt the same way. They both focused their eyes on each other not bothering to pay attention to anything else. Selina hugged Alfred, whispered a quick thank you into his ear, and she was finally in front of Bruce. They both smiled at each other nervously. The ceremony began and Selina felt like it was taking forever, she felt awkward waiting for something to do. Finally, they put each other's ring's on and it was time to say their vows.

Selina panicked a little when she realized she was first. She cleared her throat and began. "Bruce, when I first met you, becoming you're wife was the last thing on my mind." everyone laughed together. Selina felt awkward. "But, after you found me again and again, and after I hurt and betrayed you, you still came back and I realized how I felt about you. I told you how I felt and you told me how you felt. One thing led to another and now we're here, I feel like I don't deserve you, I admit, you're the best thing to ever happen to me. I love you, Bruce Wayne."

Bruce felt happy to hear those words and smiled at Selina and realized it was his turn. "Selina, you know I'm not good at expressing how I feel. But it is easy for me to say now, that I love you. Everyone in this city knows my life story but they don't know everything like you do. I've been through hell and back and would love to forget most of it but as much as I'd like the past not to exist, it still does, but you make it a million times better. You mean more to me than anything in this world. You are my family now. And I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you."

Selina felt tears streaming down her face. She wish she could stop crying but she couldn't. She felt like she should say something but she knew she couldn't. Alfred also felt tears coming on, he's never felt more proud at Bruce than he has in that moment. This was the day Alfred, had been waiting for.

The ceremony continued and it was time for them to say their I do's. "Please repeat after me," said the wedding officiant. "I, Selina Kyle…"

Selina wiped tears off her face. "I, Selina Kyle…"

"Take thee, Bruce…" he continued.

"Take thee, Bruce…" she repeated.

"To be my lawfully wedded husband, till death do us part." he finished.

"To be my lawfully wedded husband, till death do us part." she said.

"Please repeat after me, Mr. Wayne." the officiant continued. "I, Bruce Wayne…"

"I, Bruce Wayne…" Bruce said.

"Take thee, Selina…" he continued.

"Take thee, Selina…" repeated Bruce.

"To be my lawfully wedded wife, till death do us part." finished the officiant.

"To be my lawfully wedded wife, till death do us part." Bruce finished.

"Now, Selina," the officiant turned to Selina. "Do you take Bruce, to live together in marriage? Do you promise to love, honor, and respect him, for better or worse, for richer or poorer, through sickness and in health, be faithful only to him, for as long as you both shall live?"

Selina swallowed.

"Well! I don't want to interrupt this very loving ceremony, which by the way is very touching, but, I have some plans to do." said a familiar voice. Everyone turned around and gasped. Bruce was especially surprised.
