Two Weeks Later
"So we've discussed this thoroughly" Aidan said. Sally nodded with her mouth closed. He looked at Nora "We're seriously doing this, even with all the cons."
"So you're leaning towards the pros." Josh guessed. Aidan shrugged with a smile. He looked at Sally.
"I'm gonna marry my best friend." He said to Josh and Nora, Sally showing him a huge grin. His head whipped back to Josh. "I'm getting married again!" He said excitedly. Nora whooped and hugged Aidan. It was a celebration for about four or five hours, and then with Sally sitting on the kitchen counter, Aidan went to join her.
"So," Sally began with chocolate in her mouth. "We're gonna do the same thing you guys did, about. Just in a different place."
"What, in a church?" Josh joked, and Aidan playfully punched his shoulder to shut him up.
"No, we're gonna do it right on the steps outside the house." She replied. Nora and Josh stared at them.
"So that strangers can watch you make the best decision of your life?" Josh asked
"First off, Sally and I agreed, it isn't that big of a deal." Aidan interrupted before Sally could start.
"Second, that's one of our favorite places." Sally added quickly. Nora and Josh looked at each other, trying to find words to persuade them to do it somewhere else while Aidan and Sally looked at each other and smiled, then shared a kiss. Nora and Josh turned back to try and persuade them to change their minds, but Aidan and Sally were so interlocked in their kissing they just let it be. They were happy. What else needed to be said. Josh got up, leading Nora out of the room. Aidan stopped and looked at him.
"I'm gonna at least block up the street so complete strangers walk past your wedding." Josh joked, Aidan grinned and clapped him on the back as Sally hung onto him. Nora lead Josh up the stairs as Sally pulled Aidan back into their kissing. They talked for a bit, and talked and kissed.
"Oh, that reminds me." Josh interjected, leaving Aidan mid-kiss and Sally turning toward him. "When is this taking place?" he asked. Sally grinned.
"In two days." She replied. Josh grinned and they hugged, before Nora dragged him back with her. Sally and Aidan playfully teased one another and kissed again.
Nora stood on the top step in a pale dress with an iris in her hand, and Josh stood on the bottom step behind Aidan, who was on the second to last step. The street was blocked off to the corner, but it didn't stop onlookers from wondering what was happening. Sally was in a shin-length wedding dress that had little ribbons of purple on it. Aidan was in a normal tuxedo, not the one that he wore in the seventies, Sally checked. Despite the protests of getting married a month before, he was happy the whole day, and couldn't stop smiling, even when Josh made jokes at his dispense. A priest from a nearby church had been asked to marry Sally and Aidan on these steps, and there he was in a black suit and a little white square at his throat. Aidan stood next to Sally on the middle step, as the priest married them from the step below.
"You may kiss the bride" The priest said warmly, and then Sally grinned at Aidan and kissed him, roping her arms around his neck. He held onto her and kissed her back. Nora couldn't help but want to clap, then Josh joined in, and then from a far off distance the onlookers clapped as well. It had grown into a crowd, so they could hear them applaud. Sally looked at them and then Aidan, laughing.
"You're my wife!" Aidan told her in a happy murmur. She grinned again and kissed him, then went back to the sole of her foot.
"Damn right I am." She replied, giggling. She looked up at Nora who smiled at her. "Oh my God, Aidan's my husband." She wowed. Nora laughed and so did Aidan, she turned back to him and kissed him some more. The priest looked at Josh and he nodded after the priest murmured if he could go. The priest left after shaking Aidan and Sally's hand and congratulating them.
