At a hotel in Colorado Springs Laura and Kaley are standing in large room getting ready with hair and makeup with help from Sam Carter and Cassie Frasier, baby Evan is sleeping in his mosses basket
"Ready for you dress Laura?" asks Sam
"Yes I am" she stands up from her chair in front of the dresser, she steps into the middle of a white satin dress that is on the floor, Sam pulls it up and skill fully does up the bodice top, which has fine boning
"You look beautiful" comments Cassie finishing Kaley's hair
"Your turn" says Sam satisfied with Laura's dress; Kaley gets up and checks on her son, then moves to her own dress on the floor, again satin white, but with a corset top to try and hide some of her post pregnancy tummy, as Sam is tightening the corset Carolyn appears
"Perfect timing" she notes "Do you want me to take him now?"
"Oh yes please Carolyn, he's sleeping, I hope he's awake for photos" Carolyn brings him over "See you at the church little man" she kisses him
"He will be" she scoops him up in his baby blanket and leaves again as Jack and another man enter
"Stunning ladies" Jack comments from the door, the brides turn round
"Dad" cries Laura running to his arms
"Oh sweetheart you look amazing" he mummers "Your mother will love it"
"Are we ready to go?" asks Jack
"No, veils for the brides" notes Sam handing Laura's to her father whilst she puts Kaley's on "Now we are ready" Kaley slips her arm into Jack's Laura does the same as they leave with Cassie and Sam following.
At the church Carson and Evan stand at the alter with Rodney behind Carson and John behind Evan, both of whom are in their dress blues and John with a sword, Carolyn arrives with baby Evan, his father turns round as she takes a seat behind him, Daniel appears at the door
"They are here" he calls down, making the grooms jump, the wedding march plays out from the organ, first down the isle is Laura, Carson not knowing whether or not to close his mouth at the sight of his bride, Evan moves to the side to allow Laura's father to pass his daughter to Carson. The music continues and Kaley appears with Jack, her mother looking on with and mixture of tears and anger in her eyes, making Kaley confused, but she shakes it off, it's her big day, Jack passes her to Evan. The music stops and everyone takes their seats as the Rev starts the joint service.
30 minutes later he pronounces
"I now pronounce both of you Man and Wife" the 2 couples turn to face their friends and family to a large and loud round of applause, both couples head to the back of the church to sign the register with their parents; meanwhile John, Jack and 6 other Air Force officers exit the church. Carson and Laura exit the church first to a wave of confetti; Jack and John stand at the top of the steps each at the head of 2 lines, the slow march down the steps they space out and face each other, Evan and Kaley appear at the top
"Officers…" starts Jack "Draw Swords" the men produce their swords "Arch swords" they are raised above their heads "Blades to the wind" the swords' blades are turned away from the church, as Evan and Kaley reach the first officer Jack continues "Presenting for the first time in public Major and Mrs Evan Lorne" they draw level with Jack and John and in a quick swift movement Jack hits Kaley across her ass "Go Air Force" he cries with a glint in his eye, as Kaley looks at him "Return!" the officers return their swords part way into their holsters "Swords" with a rather loud clang the swords are returned.
Carolyn can been seen talking to Kaley's mom
"Ma'am, I have been asked by Kaley to keep hold of him"
"He is my grandson, I have a right!" she screams, Sam intervenes
"Ma'am, this is not the time or place" she whispers
"If this witch hands him over then there will not be problem" Evan and Kaley come over
"Mom" Kaley says "You can be properly introduced later" Carolyn moves to the newly wed and places her son in her arms, to a scathing look from the grandmother
"You best, devil child" she spits and walks away Evan's mom comes over to see her new daughter-in-law
"Sorry Evan" apologises Kaley "See why I didn't mention her?" He nods
"Kaley, sweetheart" Evan's mom gently hugs her "So this is Evan?"
"Kaley this is my mom, Shannon" Evan introduces
"Please to meet you finally, yes this is Evan, your grandson" he stirs in Kaley's arms
"Oh hello sweetie" she coos over him "So lovely and precious, I see your mother is causing problems" a tears rolls down her face as she tightens her grip of her son "You have made her an honest women Evan I can tell and you have made my son very happy"
"Mom, I intend to never let her go" says Evan kissing her neck
"Thank you" she manages to whisper "It would have been nice to have met you before today"
"Yes, but still we are now family and what a wonderful family you make" Shannon turns to Evan "I was your father was here" Evan smiles "I heard this one was premature?"
"By 6 weeks, he should still be inside of me!" whimpers Kaley, placing a hand over her corseted abdomen
"I know but he is here and happy, a bouncing 4 week old baby" Shannon stands behind her daughter-in-law and hugs her "and he has 2 loving parents and from what I can tell the largest baby sitting group in the world"
"Right, brides please prepare to throw your bouquets" calls Jack, Kaley passes Evan to his father and takes her position on the steps with Laura, both throw their bouquets at the same time, they are cries and shoving
"YES" screams Elizabeth waving a bouquet, Cassie waves the other
"Looks like me CO is getting married next" laughs Evan
"My daughter as well" adds Jack John has hold of Elizabeth and is spinning her around, the brides rejoin their husbands
"Not meaning to put a downer on things but you're mother seems a little tense, lass" puts forward Carson
"Yes" Kaley sighs "When I was born she then delivered Munchausen's by Proxy and OCD cleaning" everyone in the group looks shocked "that is why I didn't want her to come today"
"Well, we will try to not let her in the reception" offers John
"Thank you, it would put my mind at rest" Evan stands behind her and hugs her tightly.
At the hotel where the girls had got ready the reception is in full swing in the large dinning room, Kaley and Evan shared their first dance with their son, dancing to "You raise me up", she had slipped into something more comfortable to enjoy the rest of the evening, as she walks towards her son's mosses basket she finds it empty, looking round in a slight sudden panicky, she spots Evan and goes to him
"Have you seen our son?"
"He is in his basket" answers Evan
"No he isn't" Evan notes the tone of her voice, panicked looking round he spots his mom but arms empty
"Don't worry we'll find him" he heads to the DJ leaving Kaley standing alone, the music stops
"Right folks sorry to interrupt the evening, we have lost a baby" the guests look round the room knowing of only one baby, Cassie pipes up
"I saw your mom taking him" Kaley rushes to her
"Where did she go Cassie" demands Kaley
"Up the stairs" Cassie is nearly in tears
"Do not worry at least we know" Sam reassures her, Jack, Evan and Kaley head out the room and up the stairs Sam follows
"Roof" suggests Jack as the exit to the roof the night air hits them, a woman near the edges rocks backward and forwards singing "Stay here" Jack orders to Kaley as he slowly moves over to her "Miss Rivers?" she looks up "Wonderful evening"
"Yes, lovely, and my daughter is happy" she smiles at him
"I like she would be happier if she had her son"
"I have a right too"
"Of course ma'am, you just had her worried, if he okay?"
"He's fine" the baby cries in her arms "If you could get me a bottle I'll feed him"
"May be his mother should do that" offers Jack
"I am capable! I done this with 2 kids of my own!" she snarls
"I know that and a wonderful job you have done, you should be proud of your daughter" the crying gets louder as she tries to sooth him "I'll take him to Kaley" looking defeated she carefully hands him to Jack who in few long strides reaches Kaley placing her son in her arms "Get her out of here Major"
"Thank you sir" he says as he takes him wife back down
"Well, seems my evening is over" spits Kaley's mom as she storms off the roof, Jack and Sam sigh and head back down to the party, and the room is silent as they enter
"Okay folks, one baby back with parents" announces Jack, the mood instantly listens "The couple have gone to bed"
Evan gets Kaley and his son to their room, he scoops her up into his arms and carriers her across the threshold, he lays them on the bed
"I'd thought I lost you" she whispers to her son "can you make me a bottle please" Evan disappears and returns with a bottle, Kaley checks the temperature of the milk and starts to feed him
"He's back now" Evan goes to get changed
"See why I didn't want her here" A knock at the door is heard, Evan in shorts and a t-shirt answers it to find Carson standing there
"Doc, come in" Evan motions to him "What can we do for you?"
"I just came to see if everyone was okay" Baby Evan is sucking on his bottle eyes wide looking at Kaley
"We are fine thank you Carson" Kaley stops "Is it natural for me to be this protective and over react?" Carson can see it is difficult for her to ask
"It's not been easy, Michael, Jennifer dying, getting married and your mother" Kaley sighs "It is many things together, it should get easier if not let me know"
"Thanks doc, now go and enjoy the rest of your evening with your wife" suggests Evan
"I will and I know you will" smiles Carson as he leaves
"What was that?" he whispers sitting next to her
"I don't want to end up like my mom, I feel blue"
"I know, go and get changed" he takes his son to finish his feed, Kaley heads to the bathroom as she returns Evan has just settled him down
"Mrs Lorne" he whispers "Shall we"
"My major lover" as they slide onto the bed and turn out the lights
