I'm updating a Prince Charmed. I am determined to finish it by the end of the year or at least by the end of the school break. This story has been going on for far too long. I started this story in the summer of '07. It's going on 2011. In my opinion that is far too long to be writing a story. I shoulda been finished a long time ago. I'll keep you updated. My New's Resolution is to be able to finish my fanfiction stories while being able to balance my school work. So you'll be seeing more of me. Oh and FYI this is going to be a long chapter. This is going to be the wedding chapter no matter how much I have to write.

"So tell us what happened?" Alex exclaimed when May returned to the dressing room. Misty was standing next to Alex just as excited as she was. May just smiled and shrugged.
"Nothing Really. The Queen told me the various duties of the queen. She said that it would be better explained by her since Lady Elani was not and never will be queen." The girls all laughed knowing it was true.
"Do you and Drew officially say goodbye?" Misty asked. All May did was blush and both girls giggled.
"How was the kiss?"
"Well, it wasn't much of a kiss because we had to say goodbye in front of the queen and king."
"Oh…" They said surprised.
"Well, that sorta sucks." Alex said.
"Its better than nothing." Misty replied.
"Did they tell you that you had to provide an heir?"
"How did you know, Alex?"
"Well, she is a princess, May. I think you knows the duties of a queen better than you do." Misty said practically. May just stuck out her tongue. Bella and Ella both entered and curtsied instantly.
"Oh yes. Alex and Misty meet Be-"
"We've already meet, May." Misty said, "As a matter of fact, they tried to help us find you after you went missing."
"Sarah threatened them."
"Sometimes I think that's all Sarah can do: ruin peoples' lives and threaten them as well. I'll make sure to it that Drew knows what happened." May said smiling at them.
"Speaking of the devil, " May
"It is an honor to serve you, your highness-" Bella started.
"But all we want is the protection of our farm from Sarah." Ella finished.
"I'm sure that Drew would take care of it."
"Thank you very much, princess."
"Call me May. We'll be seeing a lot of each other from now on, i suppose." May smiled.
"Yes," they both said.
"Speaking of the devil, " Misty began, "What happened to you?"
"I'd rather not speak of it."
"Why not?" Alex almost shouted. "Did you even tell Drew?"
"Yes I told, Drew. I just don't want the King and Queen to know what happened. I don't want any one to worry about me."
"People will always worry about you. You're going to be queen soon and there is going to be a lot of fuss over you."
"Drew told me the exact same thing." May whispered to herself. "I just don't like to think of it, okay."
"Okay," Misty sighed, "But we were really worried about you. You and I have been best friends since we were younger. Don't you think I have a right to know when someone hurts my friend-"
"Fine I'll tell you. Just don't tell anyone. Promise?"
Alex and Misty both nodded their heads and May began to tell the story. Shortly after May told her story, Lady Elani shoved all of the girls out so that May could receive her spa treatment. The spa treatment began with May being bathed in different scented oils, minerals and perfumes in a room lit with scented candles and a female playing the harp. While she sat in the bath, her hair was washed and rinsed with rose water and perfume. Fresh fruit was set next to the bath so she could eat at her own leisure. She would bathe for hours as her hair was washed. When she was finished her hair would be rinsed, dried and brushed and braided. By the time this was over, the moon was high in the sky and it was time for a long rest before the wedding.

When May was awaked, the sun was already in the sky. Her breakfast was made up of fruit and watered win representing the sweetness of the day, at least that was what Misty told her. It was less than an hour before the wedding. Her stomach churned as each minute passed. She was already dressed with the necklace given to her by the queen, and Misty's blue pin in her hair. Her hair was already in its bun.
With a knock on the door, her parents enter the room seeing their daughter dressed and sitting in front of the mirror.
"Look at our daughter." her father said to his wife as May turned her head standing. She smiled at her parents. Her mother promptly hugged her daughter crying.
"She's beautiful." her mother said crying, "My baby is growing up. Just think Norman we won't be able to see her everyday like we used to."
"Mother." May said wiping her tears. "You can stay. I wish you could."
"Oh, we couldn't honey," her father chimed in. "This is a new adventure for you without us." May went to hug her father.
"I'll miss you, daddy."
"I'll miss you more pumpkin." Her father kissed her forehead and held her arms length to look at her in the dress, "I'm glad you decided to wear your mother's dress. You look just like her."
"Thank you, father." She hugged her father and mother once more. She half wished that she could stay in their arms forever without a care in the world. She pulled away knowing that was an unrealistic dream.
"Now, we're going to take our seats. Are you going to be okay, May?"
"I'll be fine, mother." They both walked out leaving May alone but she was only alone moments before all her friends entered the room surprising her including the princes and princesses excluding Sarah. They all hugged her and wished her luck before leaving to take their place in the wedding ceremony. The only ones that were left to hug and wish her luck was Ash, Misty and Alex. Even Bella and Ella had left to fulfill last minute duties for the wedding.
"i can't believe this is it." Misty said crying as she hugged her best friend. Both of them hugged and cried together. "Be brave and don't mess up your make up." Misty said wiping May's tears. Then she wiped her own.
"I should be telling you the same thing. Don't worry we'll still be best friends. I'll write you all the times and you'll visit me right."
"Yeah. If the guards and Drew don't get tired of me." They hugged once more before she hugged Alex.
"Good luck, May. You'll do great."
"Thank you," May said before looking at Ash and hugging him. "Take care of her, Ash," she said not pulling away. Misty then joined the hug. Alex watched the three friends as they shared their last moments together before the wedding.
There was another knock on the door and May couldn't guess who it was because everyone she knew had already come including the King and Queen who came long before her parents did. May ended the hug as the door opened to reveal Sarah.
"I need to talk to May alone." she said without a 'hello' or any greeting or the sort.
Overwhelmed with emotion, Misty's first response was to scream and say, "Now why on earth would we do that after what you did to her?"
"I have to speak to her alone." Sarah said again without even trying to fight with Misty. She didn't even bother looking at her. She just said, "I wanted to apologize but I want to do it in private. Reluctantly, Misty walked out the room lead by Ash. Alex was behind them.
"I just wanted to apologize-"
"It's okay, Sarah."
" I mean i apologize that Drew is marrying you. He's in love with you yes but do you really think you can handle being queen. You;d rather be left alone in the world without anybody worrying about you. You-"
"Look Sarah. I think you should just leave. You must accept the fact that I am marrying Drew whether you like it or not. I love him and he loves me. You need to leave."
"I will not be told what to-"
"LEAVE!" May shouted pointing at the door. Then she calmed herself and silently added, "please."
"I will not be shouted at. Do not forget that whatever you do where ever you go I will be there. One day Drew will be mine."
"Shut up Sarah!" May shouted. Sarah was surprised, "I love Drew and he loves me. You don't understand what love is-"
"I do-"
"NO! You will listen to me!" May shouted and Sarah stayed quiet, "There must be something wrong in that little head of yours. What part of love don't you get. Drew will not marry you because he loves me. I will not leave him unless he wants me to. I don't care how many times you try to push us apart, you are actually pushing us together. Sometimes i think you are an unloving, selfish little prin-"
May's head was forced to turn. Sarah had slapped her. The sound echoed throughout the halls of the palace.
"You will not talk to me in that voice. Do you understand?"
"Do you understand this?" Sarah turned around and Misty had punched her making her fall on the ground. Misty's punch sent Sarah running out and Drew running in. When Drew ran in, May was already hiding in her closet. Misty covered her mouth in shook at what she had done. Alex was there the whole time. She had entered with Misty and was just as shocked as MIsty was at that point in time.
"What happened?"
"Sarah slapped May. Then Misty entered and punched Sarah."
"Is May okay?" Drew said.
"I'm fine. How's MIsty?"
At that very moment, the Queen entered and Sarah shouted pointing at Misty, "She punched me."
"NO." Drew quickly said before Misty even opened her mouth. "I punched her. After hearing her slap May, it was an immediate reaction." Drew explained.
"But it was-"
"I'm sorry, Sarah. I must learn to control my temper."
"But-"
"Sarah, why did you slap May? You should know better. We're going to have to talk to your father about this, young lady."
"Please, your highness, not my father." Sarah pled.
"And you, Drew. You shouldn't hit girls. Your punishment shall be that decided after the wedding." The Queen said. "Now girls. It's time for the wedding. Take your places… Where's May?"
"Back here." May shouted from in the closet.
The Queen chuckled. "What on earth are you doing back there."
"When Drew came in, I didn't want him to see me."
"Come here child." The Queen said.
"No disrespect, Your highness, but it's bad luck for the groom to see the bride before the wedding."
The Queen chucked again. "Come on everyone let's get ready." When everyone was out of the room, the Queen called May out of the closet.
"Are you alright, dear?"
"Yes, your highness."
"Call me mother, dear. You are marrying my son. Come on dear, Smile. It's your wedding day."
May did as she was told. Everything was finally right after all.

When May walked to the outside of the wedding chapel where the wedding was taking place, princesses were already in line. The music was playing and her heart began pumping like crazy. Lady Elani wasn't helping with her constant clapping and reminding everyone that everything had to be perfect. With everything that went on May hadn't even seen the room. All she knew was that she had to follow the princesses and stand next to Drew, then say 'I do,' when told. Her train followed her with every step as she entered the chapel with her face covered by the veil. She entered the ballroom and walked slowly with the music as everyone stood. The aisle was long. Everyone watched her as she walked. She was beautiful. Her dress had angel sleeves that were clear with white floral embroidery. The rest of the dress was completely white. At the waist it puffed out a bit. At the bottom hem of the gown was white embroidery.
( Here's the picture. ht tp : / t0 (dot) gs ta ti c(dot) co m/ im ag es ?q =t bn :A Nd 9G cT Ce Ip 5j d0 0M pk cD Jb Ky 7y L5 zS F1 58 _Q 8l ko Vi yL 0O wb Yy 2I J1 L)(I'll put the website on my profie if this doesn't work.)
She walked down the aisle slowly as she looked around the room. Everything was in white. Water lilies filled the room. Even the bouquet of flowers she had in her hand was white. May was delighted by the sight of the room. She looked ahead and her eyes finally met Drew: the reason of this whole celebration. It was their wedding and she would finally be his and he would finally be hers. The thing that stood out most about Drew was his bright emerald eyes. The special thing about those eyes was that, those were the eyes he had on her when they first meet at his ball. His smile dazzled her. When Drew looked her, he felt that May was the only one for him. She was like a dream come true, it was undeniable and unbelievable that he thought he would never fall in love. He was glad that he did and now he always wanted to be there for her always. He was glad that he was able to get her to fall for him enough to marry her. He didn't even want them to be apart. She had the key to his heart. Before May stood beside Drew, Misty who was standing a couple steps down grabbed the bouquet of flowers.
When they were standing side by side, they knelt together. When they knelt together, the audience sat. A cross was made in front of each of their faces by the bishop. He connected their hands together and beckoned them to stand. They faced each other. The bishop then announced to the audience, "Drew had written his own vows."
May was shocked because she didn't know that they had to write vows.
"May, I love everything about take my breath away. You've changed me so much for the better. Everyone could tell. Every time I'm with you, it's like i'm in heaven and It's everything I thought it would be. You're all I need. You in my arms is the most wonderful feeling in the world. I want to always be in love with you. Even when the eagles forget how to fly, when it snows in the middle of summer, when violets turn red and roses turn blue. Even when pigs fly. I'll always love you. I'd hate for us to ever be apart. You brought a joy into my life that no one has ever brought to be. I don't know why and I don't care why. I just know that I love and I want you to be mine and me to be yours forever."
May's eyes were wide and she smile at his every word. It was so beautiful said and so softly spoken.
"May. It's your turn."
"I never thought I'd be marrying the prince. If someone would have told me about this moment a year ago, I would have thought they were insane. But that night when you looked in my eyes. I knew you were different and there was something behind them that was worth getting to know. When our hands touched and we first danced, it was better than being on a cloud. I'm glad I didn't just push that feeling aside or I wouldn't be standing here. I told you on several occasions that even if you weren't the prince I would have married you. I never knew I could feel this way about anyone. It was such a wonderful feeling and it still is every time I look you in the eyes. I want to spend my life with you until the end of time. I want to spend every morning waking up with you in my arms and sleeping beside you listening to your heart beat alongside mines. I want the whole world to know that I am yours forever. I love you more than you know it." May smiled as tears of happiness rolled down her cheeks.
Everyone watched them smiling. Even Sarah had to smile as they looked at each other and said their i do's. She finally realized that they did love each other. It reminded her of her parents, when her mother was alive and when her father was happy. It was way better than when he was heartbroken. Now she was starting to become glad that they had fallen in love and her pranks didn't stop them from loving each other.
He put the ring on her finger ad he said, "With this ring, I thee wed." And May put the ring on Drew's finger and softly said, "With this ring, I thee wed."
"You may now kiss your bride, my prince." Drew smiled and lifted the veil off May's head. He lifted her chin softly and kissed her pulling her closer to him with one hand. May's hands stayed on Drew's chest. Everyone stood clapping and some of the princes even whistled. Pulling away, they both took a moment to look at each other before looking at the audience. Now at this very moment, rose petals were being thrown over their heads. They both looked at the audience and Drew escorted May out of the ballroom as they both waved with the wedding court behind them.

I'd like to that all my reviewers. If you were touched by what Drew felt about may. Listen to the song Back at One and Still in Love both by Brian McKnight. He inspired what Drew feels for May. He sings romance ballads. His songs are the sweetest. May's speech was based on the song Spend My Life With You by Tamia and Eric Benet. Imma update soon i just have one more chapter then the prologue. Happy New Year!
