Epilogue
I was hyperventilating. Today was the day. The day. It was the biggest day of the year. It was the wedding of the year.
'Shane Gray: GETTING MARRIED!'
'Shane Gray Married to Ordinary Girl?'
All the news tabloids, entertainments shows and fans had already found out. There was news every where. And eventually, they found out that Shane was marrying me. So now, I can't go anywhere without being trailed by a huge brood of paparazzi.
I can still not believe this is my wedding day. It's been six months since he proposed. Six months, and still, I practically died of excitement and happiness. Today, my dream was finally going to come true. I would become Mitchie Gray. Well, Michelle Gray. And Brooke [my daughter] is going to be Brooke Gray.
The wedding took a short time to plan. Every wedding planner was begging for us to 'need' them. The caterers asked if we wanted any special foods. But for a caterer I didn't choose any big name. Shane and I both decided that my mom would cater. Caitlyn's aunt worked as a wedding planner so we chose her to plan our wedding.
As for the guests, Shane and I both decided we would only invite the people that we could greet by first name and last name. That pretty much numbered it down to…667. Sadly, Shane didn't have a bad memory. Every time he saw a first name, he'd remember the last name. And for me, I just invited family members and friends.
For the actual wedding people…like bridesmaids and best men we had our closest friends do it. Brooke [fashion designer] was the maid of honor. Caitlyn and Tess were both the bridesmaids. Brooke [my daughter] was in her flower girl dress. For Shane, Nate was the highest best man and Jason and Shane's friend Sander were best men also.
My dress was white and strapless. It flowed nicely and had a train, but it was short enough for no one to carry it. The bridesmaid's dresses were a very dark red. They had spaghetti straps and went just to the knee. All of our hair was done. Mine was curled nicely with my bangs to the side.
All of us were in the front of the church, waiting for the music to go on. It was almost time. Caitlyn, Tess, and Brooke [fashion designer] were squealing while Brooke [my daughter] was holding the bouquet of flowers in her tiny hands.
Right on cue, 'Here Comes the Bride' started playing. I clutched onto my dad's arm. Brooke [my daughter] jumped up and down, and then walked out the door in her pink flower girl dress. Tess took a step and went into the sanctuary where all the guests were. Caitlyn followed.
"Remember, count to five, and then come out." Brooke [fashion designer] ordered. I nodded and she stepped out.
One, two, three, four five…
My dad gave me a small tug as we walked into the room. There were so many guests there. Nate, Jason, and Sander were lined up beside Shane. Caitlyn, Tess, and Brooke [fashion designer] were lined up beside where I was supposed to stand. Brooke [my daughter] was standing in front of Tess since Tess was the tallest. There were camera crews lined up on each side of the aisle. Yes, Shane and I allowed our actual wedding to be on TV.
I locked eyes with Shane. He was grinning from ear to ear. I looked at his appearance. The sleeves of his tux were rolled up his arm. He wore grey skinny jeans and black converse. I giggled. Some things always stayed the same.
As my dad and I approached the altar, my heart went even faster. I released my dad's arm unwillingly and he gave me a soft kiss on the cheek. For less then a second I was without an arm to hold. Then, Shane took my arm, safely in his. I walked up the steps with him.
"You look beautiful." He whispered, sending chills up my spine and goose bumps all over my arm.
"I love you." I whispered back. He grinned as we stood face to face in front of everyone.
We did our vows, and slipped our rings onto each other. We did the 'I do's' which, I almost didn't make it through. I started crying. Finally, finally the priest said,
"You may kiss the bride." And I got a kiss of a life time. The kiss wasn't rough. It wasn't needy. It was like there was no tomorrow.
We must've been kissing for a really long time because Caitlyn coughed and Brooke [my daughter] let out an 'eeew!' I pulled back and blushed. Shane chuckled and the priest spoke,
"I now pronounce you, Mr. and Mrs. Shane Gray!! The crown went wild and let me tell you, so did my heart. I was finally Mrs. Gray.
xx
We were all at the reception and there was no camera crew. It consisted of the people that we knew fairly well. Shane and I along with the rest of the group had already taken millions of pictures, and my cheeks were killing me.
Everybody was served their dinners and we all ate, talked, and let the excitement soak in. I was happier then ever. I hadn't smiled for this long in ages. This was totally worth it.
Nate stood up and put his fork to the glass cup which caused the room to go quiet.
"Yo," He spoke into the mike. Everybody laughed. "So, I'm supposed to make a speech. Here it is. We all know that Mitchie and Shane are meant to be. This just finalizes it. I know, and so does everybody else in this room, that Mitchie and Shane will die together hand in hand smiling because they both got their dream. They have so much and common too. And from the start, Shane has loved Mitchie. Even in high school. Sometimes he didn't show it. But Jason and I both know the truth. We know that through everything they will be together. Having Brooke-their daughter-makes it even better. So, here's to Shane and Mitchie, forever and ever." Nate said. I had tears in my eyes. Who knew Nate Black could be so deep? He walked toward the table and hugged Shane and I.
"Thank you." I whispered. He nodded, gave me a small smile, and sat down. Brooke [fashion designer] stood up and walked toward where Nate was standing earlier. She grabbed the mike and spoke into it,
"Hi…um, well, it's pretty hard to compete with that, because he pretty much covered it all, but it's just been so amazing to see Mitchie find love and be in love again. Shane is everything she's hoped for in a guy, and they need each other to live. It's amazing how great they fit together…like two puzzle pieces. Shane and Mitchie have both been through tough times. There was high school, family, friends, and just life in general. There will always be problems but now, they both know that they have each other." Brooke [fashion designer] finished. She had tears in her eyes, and once again, so did I.
She sat down and we hugged for what seemed like forever.
It was time for Shane and I to dance in front of everyone. Fun, right? My stomach was churning. I was so nervous.
He took me in his arms as we danced around the dance floor laughing and smiling. He lifted me up and spun me in a circle. I laughed as he placed me down again.
Nate and Brooke [fashion designer] were right. Shane and I were going to be together forever, and we both would always have each other.
