I own nothing. This is the Rehearsal Ceremony, so please be nice if you don't like how I did it. Raven's mom had some-what of an influence to this.
Raven's POV
We were in a funeral home, inside of a graveyard, getting ready for the rehearsal. Suprisingly cheap to have a wedding in a graveyard, I must add.
"Becky, are you ready for rehearsal," I said, from outside Becky's Dress room.
"Yeah. I just need to tie this, and TA DA!" She said, coming out in her red dress.
"Nice, you look lovely, I wish Alexander could see my dress tonight, but mom doesn't want to spoil it. I have to admit, I'm happy with all the stuff my mom came up with, as long as I have my vampire bite me." I smiled.
"Yeah, Matt didn't sleep well over that. I think I was expecting it, I mean you guys snuck out and he's never out in the sun, he eats raw meat, and lives in the baren mansion with nobody else but that creep butler Jameson. And you told me over email last night that some clan from Romania was comming? Should we be worried?" She asked, which was typical Becky.
"Yeah. I'm not sure if they're dangerous or not, but they should be here now." I said, pulling back the blinds and looking for them outside in the graveyard. Outside 5 people walked to the gate, my dad stopped them and asked if they were invited.
"Yes, we are friends of the groom." The lead one said in a very thick Romanian accent.
"They're here!" I said, calling Becky over to see.
"Well, we need your name. Just to make sure." My dad said.
"My name is Vladimir. This is my wife, Ramonia. This is our son, Dracul, my daughter, Vivianna, and my other daughter, Nadia. Please ask the groom to invite us in." He said, looking for Alexander.
"Sorry, I don't see your names." But as my dad was going to shut the gate, My mom told him it was okay. I turned back to Becky. My mom must have believed their lie.
"Wow. They are weird." Becky said.
"Their Romanian, not to mention vampires!" I said, I heard the creepy music play, we had agreed on backround music from 'Nightmare before Christmas', which was the cue for Becky to leave, I hugged her like I never had before.
"I can't believe we're doing this!" Becky said. "You getting married!"
"THis is just a rehearsal. The real deals not till tomarrow evening, and that's only if no one gets hurt with all these vamps around." I said, a little excited myself.
"I know. I know. But still...OH time to go," She said, heading on her way out. I watched from the window, Becky seemed so happy, but I could tell she was a little sad that that wasn't Matt at the end of the isle.
"Now we wait...." I said to myself, waiting for the annoying Dum Dum Da Dum. My mom an Alexander's mom said that even in Romania they had the Wagner's March. I heard the music start, I walked out, almost ran out, nervous, a little scared, and excited. My dad grabbed my arm and help me walk slowly down, to the tune. He was smiling the whole time, and my smile was kinda hidden, my hair was in the way.
"Who gives this woman?" Jameson asked, he had a priest licence from Romania, so we thought he would do it.
"Her mother and I." My father said, then he took his seat. Jameson continued on with the vows and what not, I wasn't paying to much attention, I was drowning in Alexander's look, he was happy, he seemed for once whole, and not broken down, his skin was less pale, and he looked radiant under the moon's glow. Jameson they got to the part where we say 'I do'.
"I do." Alexander said. I knew it was rehearsal, but it felt so real, and so good.
"I do." I said. Jameson then said the famous words I been longing to hear "You may kiss the bride." I was about to kiss Alexander when I hear a sound, "Excuse me." The voice said. It was Vladimir.
"WHAT?!?!" I said, "Don't you dare do anything!" I said, as he stood up.
"Alexander was promised to another girl, he betrayed that oath, he's to be taken back to Romania, immediattly." Vladimir said, with glee. Strangers. I remember Luna saying something about that.
"No. Luna said it was fine. He didn't love her, he wasn't born yet, he couldn't have, their the same age. He moved, He didn't love her." I said rambling off excuses in tears.
"Luna, why would you do this?" Alexander asked.
"I warned her! It was my brother and my parents, they were mad, I didn't take part in this! I'm here with Trevor." She said, pulling Trevor up. I grabbed Alexander's hand.
"No. You can't take him away from me!" I screamed.
"He has broken a sacred oath, I'm truey sorry." He said with fake sypathy.
"What is going on?" My mom said, "You said you were friends. Not enemy's, Alexander come one, everone, come to my house." My mom said, a little frightened. We all packed up and began to run.
"Alexander, I love you. I don't want you to go. I don't know if I can handle loosing you again." I said, tears still there.
"My son will always be there. He will not leave." Elisa said. She was comforting me, as was most of the other people.
"It'll be fine. They can't take him if he lives in America, they aren't even law inforces." Stefan said.
"They know they can't take him, but their going to try, because my family has a big influence on them. It wasn't a sacred oath anyway. I'm over it, I just want Trevor." Luna said, hugging Trevor.
"It's not fair! Why would they do that right during the rehearsal. I just can't..." I said. I was tired of acting so tough, I wanted a moment to just cry, to just scream, just to be human.
"We can bring some sacred dirt here and have the ceremony at home. We have some in our basement." Elisa said.
"All in doubt, if he's married then it would cancle everything, I studied Romanian law for a year now." Luna said.
"Yeah, I'm just tired of all this. I need a nap. I need to sleep." I said.
"We can all go to my house, it's bigger and can hold more people, and it was built on sacred ground, they can't step foot on our lawn without it being trespassing." Alexander said, noticing the sun comming up.
"We'll meet you there. We can have the ceremony tomarrow in the house. It'll be fine. Nothing can go wrong." My mom said. I fell asleep on Alexander's lap. And he carried me up to his room and put me on the matress while going to his coffin. Most of us slept during the day, because we were up all night. We all had to get some rest, tomarow was my big day, and I wouldn't let them ruin it. No. Never. I kept reminding myself as I slept. Words repeating in my head. No. Never. Warned. Mistake. Oath. Betray. Nightmare. Nightmare.
