I stood in my bedroom, looking at myself in the mirror. It was one of the first times I've ever liked the way I looked. The silk white wedding dress was sitting perfectly on me. It was strapless and hand a layer of face on it, there was a jewelled belt that sat just below my rib cage. A door slamming outside my room made me snap out my thoughts. Shit. Jack can't see me in my dress. I went as fast as I could to the door and slammed it shut. He was supposed to be out with Jasey for at least another half hour.

'Who is it?' I yelled

'Alex.' Said his familiar voice from just outside my door.

'Is Jack with you?'

'No, why? What's up?'

I let out a relieved sigh and opened the door to Alex, he saw me and his eyes widened.

'Oh my god Leda, you look…' he stumbled with his words 'beautiful.' I blushed

'Thanks Alex.' I said

'I can't believe my baby girl is getting married he said and pulled me into a hug, I laughed against his chest.

'Neither can I.'

THE FUCKING WEDDING

I sat nearly falling asleep as Cass brushed my hair through, she was making it so silky. Emily was busy applying makeup to my face. I had asked them both to be my brides maids but since Jack had 3 best men I had had to make Jasey my 3rd. Cass started to pull my hair up, she pulled it into a perfect bun, letting my fringe fall out of it before spraying it with hairspray. It was soothing just sitting here, I was nervous as fuck for today, though I knew it was going to be amazing, how could it not? I was going to become Leda Barakat. My dad walked in.

'It's time Leda.' He said. Cass pushed the veil onto my head and I walked over to him, taking his arm as he walked to give me away.

JACK

I stood at the top of the aisle. Deep breaths Jack. She's yours now, that girl you managed to get, she's yours for your whole life. I smiled to myself. I looked across at Alex, Zack and Rian standing next to me. My best men. The music started and I looked down the aisle. Cass and Emily walked in, each holding flowers in one hand, holding Jasey's in the other who was standing in the middle of them. Then Leda walked in with Peter, my breath caught, she looked so beautiful. She was mine. She had the most beautiful smile I'd ever seen, I think this was the happiest I've ever seen her. She made it to the top of the aisle before kissing her dad and walking to me.

'Please join hands.' Said the minister, I reached forward and took both of her hands.

'Ladies and gentlemen, we are gathered here today to witness the joining of Jack Barakat and Leda Gaskarth. Jack repeat after me.'

'I Jack, take you Leda to have and to hold, in sickness and in health or better for worse 'till death do us part.' He said and I repeated rather shakily.

'Leda, repeat after me' He said turning to Leda 'I Leda take you Jack, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health 'till death do us part.' She repeated it perfectly in a strong voice, never breaking eye contact with me.

'I believe you both have something you would like to say.' He said and smiled at the two of us. Leda turned slightly and Emily handed her a card, she smiled at me.

'Jack.' She stated 'I remember when Alex came home 8 years ago and said he met the coolest guy at school that day. He didn't meet the coolest guy, he met the most wonderful man on the planet, Jack you're my best friend, my brother and I love you so much. I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you.' I said, her eyes had gone watery and were threatening tears. Alex handed me my card, I took in a deep breath and started.

'Leda, I found you in a desperate time in my life. You were the ray of light at the end of the tunnel. You've always been there when I need you. I thought I would never find the girl of my dreams, my princess. But standing here now with you I realise that she was right in front of me the whole time. Leda you are my girl, my princess and I would never consider spending my life with anyone but you. I love you.'

A tear spilled over her eye and she wiped it away with a watery laugh.

'Do you take each other?' said the minister

'I do.' We said at the same time and exchanged rings.

'I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss the bride.' I stepped forward and kissed her. My beautiful bride was finally mine, all mine. We pulled away and the music played, I took her hand and ran down the aisle, she laughed and ran after me. We got outside, everyone was following us. I walked over to the wedding car, it was a surprise for her. When she saw it she gasped.

'Think of it as a wedding present.' Alex said and tossed us the keys to his roadster. Leda laughed and climbed in the front seat. 'please don't crash it Jack.' He added. I smiled at him, by this time everyone from the wedding was outside. I turned the key in the motor and it roared to life. I was being original, fuck it, I was driving my own bride to the reception. It was beautiful outside, it was perfectly sunny, not a cloud in the sky. We drove away from the church and to the hotel in which we were having the reception. When we got there, there was a surprise waiting for us. Fans. Thousands of them standing outside, not blocking the door or anything. They had banners that read Congratz Jack and Leda! I laughed and they screamed as we got out the car. I took Leda by the hand and she laughed as we wandered into the hotel, I waved at the fans. We got into the hall, everyone had already arrived and they cheered as we walked in. I smiled, Alex had said that he would take care of the band for our wedding, I smiled and saw that him Rian and Zack we're standing on the stage.

'Mr and Mrs Barakat everybody!' Alex said into the mic and we laughed 'If you would like to make your way to the dance floor for your fist dance as husband and wife.' They started to play therapy and I took Leda in my arms, she was smiling, I knew this was her favourite song by us.

'So Mrs Barakat.' I said to her and she smiled 'How does it feel to be married to the most amazing person ever?'

She rolled her eyes and giggled 'It's incredible.' She said and I smiled, spinning us slowly in circles. The song finished and I smiled her she, she went on her tip toes and kissed me briefly. The guys started to play I Write Sins not Tragedies. We both laughed. Alex sang the lines 'Oh what a shame the poor grooms bride is a whore!' and the whole place laughed. Leda giggled and buried her face in my shoulder. The night went far too fast and before I knew it we were changing and getting in the car to drive to the airport for our honeymoon.

'See you in 2 weeks okay honey?' Leda said, bouncing Jasey in her arms. She nodded and hugged her before Leda handed her to Alex. I kissed her head and we walked to the car. I climbed in to car, Leda next to me. She turned around to face me grinning. I leaned forward and kissed her. My princess was all mine.
