Dedicated to someone who has the most adorable Chihuahua named Daisy. I miss her! She was so cute! Now that I think about it, I probably liked going over to his house to see her more than him. How sad.

Band of Gold – Freda Payne

"How big of an idiot are you!?" Gabriella screamed at Edward once she had made sure that Sharpay was taking care of Bryce and his hangover, which looked like a losing battle. "You ruined their wedding day! They can't get this day back!"

"It was his bachelor party! What else was I suppose to do but get him drunk and get strippers?" Edward replied rubbing his arm where she had hit him and actually made him bleed from her nails on their way back down the aisle.

"Well since it was the night before the wedding you could have been smart enough NOT TO LET HIM DRINK! You don't have to have strippers at a bachelor party either! We didn't have strippers or alcohol! We actually had the party at the house and did karaoke and danced!"

"You know you look really hot when you're this upset, right?" Edward asked smirking.

Gabriella punched Edward in the face, as hard as she could, knocking him back, "You don't even have the right to notice if I'm "hot" or not! And don't dare turn this away from Abby and Bryce! He's your brother and you did that to him? Do you not care for ANYONE properly? Not even family? What kind of scum are you?"

"How dare you talk about me that way! You know nothing about my life!" Edward replied furiously, wiping blood off his face from his now bloody nose.

"Abigail Raglin Kubin is now your sister-in-law and you just ruined what was supposed to be the best day of her life!" Gabriella screamed back, she couldn't restrain herself, and slapped him.

"I know enough about your life to know that you're a cheater, liar, and idiot."

He went to hit her, but she gasped as she was suddenly pulled backwards. Edward stumbled trying to keep his balance since he hadn't hit anything with his fist. Gabriella's feet hadn't moved backwards with her, but the person who had pulled her back dragged her backwards even farther and made sure she was standing before they let go.

"Now listen here and listen well. If you ever try to hit or touch Gabriella again or any other woman for that matter, I will make sure personally that you won't see to live another day. You need to wake up and smell the coffee and realize that the whole world doesn't revolve around you. Even Sharpay has realized that the world doesn't revolve around her. Now as much as I hate to say this, you need to get to a hospital. I'm mostly saying that for your own good since if you don't leave my sight in the next ten seconds I will pummel you into the ground. Savvy?" Whispered Troy in a deadly voice as he backed Edward into the wall and grabbed his shirt and actually lifted him off the ground.

"You okay Gabi?" Chad said from behind her placing his arm around her shoulders.

"No, but I will be once he's gone forever." Gabriella said furiously and hugging Chad back. Thank goodness everyone but some of the wedding party had left the church for the reception hall.

"Whatever. You just want me away from your f-" Edward started to say before Troy punched him.

"You will not say anything to me or Gabriella again." Troy said before releasing him and pushing him out the door. Troy watched as he stumbled towards his car.

"You do realize that you broke his nose right?" Chad asked.

"Wow really?" Gabriella asked Troy, rather happy.

"Chad wasn't talking to me Gabi." Troy said laughing.

Abby stood just outside of the church's doors as she watched her husband sway as he walked around in the grass. He stumbled forward into some bushes and Abby heard him as he regurgitated everything in his stomach. Her eyes filled with tears. Edward had ruined the one day she had been dreaming of. She only had said "I do" because she knew it was Edward, not Bryce's fault... then again, now that she has time to think... couldn't Bryce have refused to drink so much?

"Libby." A drunken voice broke her out of her thoughts and Bryce was suddenly leaning on her shoulder, smelling of booze, and she didn't want to know what else.

"Excuse me?" she asked, "Who's Libby?"

"Libby, I don't feel to good, I'm going back to the room... join me when you're ready." he said then hiccupped. Then he pulled a small flask from his pocket and pressed it to his lips.

"You brought booze to our wedding?" she gasped.

"Hu?" he asked before stumbling into the limo and told the driver to take him to the hotel.

Abby stood there just watching the limo drive away with her husband. She saw no point in trying to stop him from going. He didn't even know his wife's name. Heck, he probably didn't even know he was married.

She turned around as she heard laughing. Chad, Gabriella, Sharpay, and Troy were coming out of the church laughing at Gabriella as she smiled widely. Her smile disappeared though as she spotted Abby.

"Where's Bryce?" Gabriella asked holding her right hand with her left.

"He left for the hotel. Well at least that's what he told Libby." Abby replied quietly.

"Who's Libby?" Chad asked, but Sharpay slapped him in the stomach to make him shut up.

"He doesn't even know my name Gabriella! What am I going to do?" Abby replied starting to cry and closing the distance between her and Gabriella. Gabriella hugged her tightly.

"It's going to get better. I promise." Gabriella said as she patted Abby's back.

"We'll just go get the car." Troy said quietly as he dragged Chad with him.

"What's wrong with your hand?" Abby asked after a few minutes.

"I broke Edward's nose."

Abby's lips cracked into a small smile, "I knew there was a reason you were my maid of honor."

"Hey, don't worry; I'm sure Zeke's got you some triple chocolate cake or something. I called him and told him chocolate was needed." Sharpay smiled.

"Plus Eddy can't be at the reception since he had to go to the emergency room." Gabriella said smiling again.

"There's some surprises coming up too that we can't miss, right Sharpay?" Abby asked her, smiling a bit wider as Sharpay did also.

"Where's the groom?" Inquired yet another one of the guests.

"Oh well he felt really sick so he already went to the hotel." Gabriella answered for Abby. "His brother has taken care of him." Well, it was true. Just not in the way everyone thought.

"That's too bad! Tell him that we missed him and that he feels better!"

"Thanks, will do." Gabriella said hugging Abby as they walked away. "You're doing a real good job of looking happy."

"Thanks. Being on the forensics team in high school pays." Abby replied rubbing her eyes, careful not to mess up her makeup. "Also, thanks for being here. I wouldn't have made it if it wasn't for you Gabi."

"Like I said before, ain't no mountain high enough."

"Smile you two!" Loren said interrupting getting down on one of his knees to take the picture of Gabriella and Abby.

The DJ grabbed his mic, "Could I have everyone's attention please. Because the groom seems to be missing in action I have decided that in this time instead of the couple's first dance as wife and hubby, the bridal party shall dance to Thriller! Any girls can join in too."

Abby jumped up, "Gabi! Fun music! Come!" she squealed, then whispered, "Then we can make the guys all do Puttin' on the Ritz or something!"

"If its Puttin' on the Ritz, we MUST force Chad to do it too. It'd make Taylor's day." Gabi smiled

"Ha, definitely!" Abby said laughing at the thought of it. "Do you want to be Michael or should I?"

"You're the bride." Gabriella grinned.

"Ok, I'm Michael."

After a very successful round of Thriller, The Electric Slide, Puttin' on the Ritz (making Taylor a very happy person after Sharpay threatened Chad to do it), and the Hustle it was time for the bride to throw the bouquet.

"Come on Gabi!" Abby said laughing as Sharpay, Taylor, and Kelsi forced her into the bunch of people.

"Why? I'm not considered single!" Gabriella said attempting to resist, but stopping after Sharpay threatened to grab her very bruised hand that had broken Edward's nose.

"Trust me Gabi." Abby said winking at her as Gabriella ended up standing in the front center of the group.

Abby turned her back towards the girls and took a deep breath before throwing her bouquet over her head towards them. She turned around and smiled at the look on Gabriella's face as she held the flowers. All the other girls had moved when the bouquet was thrown, but they had moved away from it. Gabriella looked confused, "Aren't girls supposed to fight over this?"

"It was not our destiny this time." Sharpay grinned and pointed behind Gabriella.

Gabriella turned and gasped as she found Troy down on one knee, a ring in his hand, "Gabriella Montez, Will you marry me?" he smiled.

Gabriella was speechless as she was suddenly the center of attention.

"Well? Aren't you going to answer the boy?" Abby grinned after Gabriella had not said a word for a full minute.

"I... I... YES!" Gabriella kissed him as he slid the ring on her finger.

Everyone at the reception clapped as Loren snapped away with his camera smiling widely.

Gabi then turned to Abby, "You knew this all along! That's why you told me not to worry!"

"Bingo."

After the reception Abby had no more distractions from what had happened. She stood outside the hotel suite she was supposed to share with her husband. She shook her head. She was too disappointed in him and angry at Edward for getting Bryce drunk right before the wedding that she didn't want to share his bed.

"That night, on our honeymoon, we stayed in separate rooms." She muttered the quote from the song Band of Gold to herself as she entered room 213, right across from room 214, the room where she was sure Bryce was waiting for her, or was passed out in. Gabriella was sitting on the bed with Kelsi, her roommate at the hotel.

"Edward ruined my wedding, just like I thought he would." Abby sighed, "Can I stay with you tonight?"

"Of course."

Abby borrowed a pair of Gabriella's pajamas, got a shower, and crawled into Gabriella's bed with her.

Kelsi turned off the light and crawled into bed on the other side of Abby. They comforted her as Abby silently cried herself to sleep.

Sorry it's taking so long to get the chapters out! Thanks for sticking with us! We appreciate it!
