Marcus stood still while Ben done up his tie.
"Aww, look at you. Big boy now."
Marcus playfully punched his friend in the arm. "Get out of it. We'd better get a move on, otherwise our guests will be drunk by the time we get there."
Ben laughed. "Lucky I'm driving then, hey."
Marcus nodded. "Look at me." He held up a shaking hand. "Come on. You're just making it worse."
"Grace, wait! You've gotta stay inside!"
Grace groaned and sat down. "You're right, Stevie, but why is Marcus taking so long?" Stevie had already changed into her dress, as had the other girls.
"Don't worry, you know Marcus. He'll get here."
"You're right. So is Moira helping Xander today?"
"She sure is." Moira walked into the room. She looked stunning in her sky blue dress, and clinging to her hand was Xander.
"We're going to do the rings today, hey Xander?"
Xander smiled and squealed happily when his mother swung him in the air.
"Careful there, Stevie. He'll get used to it and become a pilot."
"Aww, Moira!"
Anastacia screwed up her face and yowled until Grace took her into her arms.
"She's just like you, Grace. A total whiner." Jaz ducked at Grace threw a good-natured punch at her.
"Whatever."
Moira and Regan waited outside. Beth Packer was waiting, as were all their guests. Finally, Ben pulled up, with Marcus.
"We're here! Everyone stop looking!"
Moira laughed at Ben's typical joke. "Regan, go and tell the girls that the boys are here."
Regan nodded and walked inside.
Marcus and Ben waited. Marcus looked amazingly handsome in his dark blue suit, white shirt and red tie. Ben looked elegant in a black suit with white shirt and red tie.
"It is too late to run?"
Ben chuckled quietly. "Just hold tight. It's worth it in the end, believe me."
"Whatever. You've never been married."
Ben mumbled something under his breath.
"What was that?"
"Nothing. Look who's here."
