Hello my lovelies. I would like to thank rainystv for the wonderful review.
So here is the next chapter. The wedding day. Hope you like it.
Disclaimer: I don't own Supernatural.
The wedding of Gabriel and Kali was as opposite as the one between Dean and Castiel as you could get. It was large and lavish, and everyone who was anyone was invited, well, as long as your last name wasn't Novak at any rate. To save face, Michael had claimed that he had to take a business trip at the same time as the wedding rather than admitting he hadn't been invited. Which again entertained Gabriel. But today was not the day to be thinking of his brothers'. Today was the day to be thinking about the woman who would soon be walking down the aisle in a beautiful white dress and becoming his wife. (Hell yes it is.)
The joining of the two great families, which Gabriel and Kali were members off, in matrimony had brought out the paparazzi. As such when Gabriel turned up at the hotel it was to find photographers trying to take snaps of the arriving guests. Turning and smiling a them all, it was his wedding day he would smile at the devil right now (and yes that probably did include his brother Lucifer, though would probably not stretch to Michael who was an ass), he saw Castiel and Dean standing in the doorway. With a wicked smile on his face he grabbed them out of the shadows and introduced them to the first reporter he could see.
"This is my best man and little brother Castiel, and this is his husband Dean." He stated loudly and clearly holding on to both of them so that the photographers could take some pictures. Once done he went with Castiel and Dean inside and ended the torture. He just wanted the world to know how much he loved Cassie. And how proud he was of him. (Ah bless, we all love Cas, Gabe.)
Once inside Dean made a hasty retreat to his seat with Rob and Matt. Leaving Gabriel to Castiel who was glaring at him. But however much the younger Novak would love to kill his brother for what he had just done. It was Gabriel's wedding day, as such he had to be nice to him. Gabriel of course knew exactly what was going through Cassie head and found it highly amusing. But that was done now, he had had his fun with his brother. Time to go and wait for his almost wife.
Kali was getting ready in the suite she had booked for this day. She had had her hair and make-up professionally done. No point looking anything but her best on her wedding day (so true), though in her hair she was wearing the combs Gabriel had given her when they were just getting together.
Her dress was a simple off the shoulder white silk which hugged her figure, she did not want to look like a wedding cake thank you very much (understandable, best to leave the cakes to Gabriel after all), and her veil was old family lace that had been passed down through the generations. She was just checking her reflection in the mirror when her father came into her room and just stood there looking at her.
"You look gorgeous." Shiva said with the proud smile of a father on his face. Though it was tempered with that fact that soon she wouldn't be just his. He would have to share her with Gabriel. Hmm, it was a good thing he liked the man otherwise he might be tempted to lock her in her room and never let her out again, screw the fact she was a woman of 35.
"Thanks dad. You don't look to shabby yourself." Kali replied turning to him with a smile.
"Well it's my only daughter's wedding day, again. Got to look my best don't I?" Shiva replied adjusting his bow tie with a twinkle in his eyes before he turned serious and put his hand in his pocket to pull out a leather jewellery case.
"Here, I want you to have this." he said softly to his daughter.
Kali frowned when she saw the box before taking it from her father. Opening it she found the most beautiful jewellery set consisting of a simple pendant made from some blue stone and earrings to match.
"I gave them to your mother on her wedding day. I know she would want you to have them on yours." Shiva explained as he watched his daughter studied the stones.
Looking up at her father Kali smiled with a sparkle of tears in her eyes. She would have asked why he hadn't given them to her on her first wedding day, but she knew the answer. Her father had always known that her ex-husband had never truly had her heart. Not the way Gabriel did, and always had.
"Thank you daddy, they're lovely." She whispered, then taking out the earrings she put them in. She then handed the pendant back to him to fasten round her neck.
"Perfect. She would be so proud you know. And she would have loved Gabriel." Shiva said to her reflection once the pendant was fasten.
"I know." With that Kali turned and gave her dad a kiss on the cheek. She felt once more like the young girl waiting to go to her prom with the guy she had a crush on from her father's restaurant, but this time it wasn't just one night she would be with Gabriel, but it would be forever.
Suddenly there was a squeal from the doorway, turning as one Shiva and Kali found Charlie standing there with her hands on her cheeks smiling at the bride.
"Oh you look awesome." Charlie screeched before running in and grabbing Kali in a hug.
"Careful of the dress. I don't want to crease." Kali responded with laughter in her voice at the woman's exuberance.
"You couldn't. You look perfect, Gabriel is going to die when he sees you." Charlie declared pulling back and taking Kali in once more.
"I hope not, I kinda want him to marry me instead of attending his funeral." Kali replied dry humour lacing her tone at Charlie's choice of words.
"Oh you know what I mean. So do you have it all?" Charlie asked excitement once again in her voice.
"It all?" Kali asked confused how. Just what was Charlie up to now? She had learnt to never truly trust this woman. She always had plans.
"You know, something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue?" Charlie exclaimed as if it was obvious.
"I have three out of four, I'm sure that will do." Kali replied in a placating tone as she subconsciously touched the pendant around her neck. She didn't need that stuff for today to be perfect. In fact all she really needed was Gabriel to stand next to her and pledging to be her husband for the rest of their lives. The rest was just window dressing.
"What are you missing?" Charlie asked suddenly going into business mode making Kali sure that whichever it was, Charlie would move heaven and earth to get it for her.
"Borrowed." Kali replied with a shake of her head for giving into this craziness.
"Right." With that Charlie thought for a minute before pulling one of the rubber bracelets from her arm.
"Here you can borrow this." She said holding it out to the bride. And smiling Kali took it and thanked her. Yes it might be red and probably didn't really go with her dress, or anything she had on. But it was from Charlie and she would wear it with pride. She knew that without this woman she won't be with Gabriel after all. Charlie had got Dean and Cas together, and that had got her to see that YouTube video and see Gabriel once more after all the years without him. (So true, Charlie is responsible for it all. Got to love Charlie.)
With that Charlie gave her one more hug before rushing out the room. She wanted to get a good seat, she did like a good wedding after all. And in her line of work she had actually attended quite a few.
Gabriel stood at the head of the room and waited patiently for once. He knew that Kali was soon to be his and while he wanted it to happen now, he also wanted her to have the perfect wedding day, it was 18 years in the making after all. He knew that she had had all this at her last one, but this was the wedding that was always meant to be (So true). And so he would do anything to make the day perfect for her. (All she needs for that is to have you as her husband at the end of it darling.)
When he heard the music ring out through the room he turned with a smile on his lips to see a vision from his dreams walking towards him on her father's arms. His smile, which before had been the one he put on in public slipped into the real thing and when Kali was beside him he saw her smile matched his. Taking the hand that Shiva gave to him he and Kali turned to the woman who was performing there ceremony.
The words held no real meaning to either of them. They followed over their heads, the only thing they remembered was when they commented themselves to each other for all eternity, and the magical words "You may now kiss the bride."
Turning to Kali, Gabriel raised the fragile veil and gently lowered his lips to hers for their first kiss as man and wife. It was perfect, they were together and nothing would ever part them again. Of that they were both completely sure.
(Yeah they are finally married. Happy dance and smiles.)
