I'm Free (Heaven Helps The Man)
"Are you sure he'll like it, Elizabeth?" I poked wearily at the black and red velvet wedding dress I was currently wearing. She sighed, nodded, and fixed my hair for the thirteenth time. "Please lie to me and say yes."
"Honey, if you don't stop this complaining, I'm gonna slap you silly until it drills into your brain that he will flipping like the dress and you for the matter!" Liz yelled quietly and slapped the back of my head. I groaned and swatted her hands away from my hair.
"My hair's fine, Liz." I muttered.
"Let me fix it into a bun!"
"No!"
"Yes!"
"LIZ!"
"NELLY KIRK!"
"I'M YOUR SISTER, STOP SAYING THAT FOR PETE'S SAKE!"
"I'M SOOO SORRY, NATALLIA NELLY KIRK-MCCOY!" Liz yelled back, laughing. We managed to fix everything on me greatly and I waited by the door to be led out by Jim. Oh, I almost forgot, Jim's the preist.
Looking into your eyes I know I'm right
Anything worth my love is worth a fight
We only get one chance
But nothing ties our hands
Listen to me
Nothing I want
Is out of reach
I'M FREE!
Heaven helps the man who fights his fear
Love's the only thing that keeps me here
You're the reason that I'm hanging on
My heart's staying where my heart belongs
I'M FREE!
Running away will never help me free
And nothing we sign is any kind of guarantee
But I wanna hold you now
And I won't hold you down
I'm shaking the past
Making my breaks
Taking control
If that's what it takes
I'M FREE!
Heaven helps the man who fights his fear
Love's the only thing that keeps me here
You're the reason that I'm hanging on
My heart's staying where my heart belongs
I'M FREE!
"Jim, don't say anything stupid or I'll hit you over the head with my bouquet!" I threatened through my teeth while smiling widely. Bones was waiting for me with a huge, and I mean HUGE, grin on his stubble-chinned, big hazel-eyed, and dark-haired face. Jim grumbled an evil comment I don't want to mention under his breath and I "accidently" stepped on his toe. "Seriously, Jim, this is my big wedding day!" He nodded and let Bones take my hands before standing up at the podium.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls," He winked at his son and daughter, Elizabeth Jr. being the ring bearer for her auntie, "we are here today to witness the...holy matrimony of my little sister and my best friend and most trusted doctor of the Enterprise." Everyone, I noticed, were resisting the urge to groan and throw something at my brother really well. Even I wanted to throw my shoe at him for pausing so dramatically. "Well, skipping everything and going to the end. You both vowed to protect and love each other until you both die, so, Bones, do you take my sister as your Federation lawfully wedded wife?"
"I most certainly do, Jim." Bones sighed and looked down at me lovingly. Jim rolled his eyes and I had to, yet again, resist smacking him until he lay on the floor with a reddened face.
"Do you, Natallia Nelly Kirk, take Bones here as your Feration lawfully wedded husband?"
"Of course, Jim, or I'd be unhappy without him." Everyone awed, except my currently-acting-like-a-five-year-old brother.
"You may kiss the bride." Jim mumbled.
"What, Jim? We can't hear you."
"I said, YOU MAY KISS THE BRIDE!" Jim added sarcastic enthusiasm, but people cheered as Bones dipped me and kissed my lips with fiery passion.
Heaven helps the man who fights his fear, and that fear was losing Natallia Nelly Kirk to someone else for Leonard H. "Bones" McCoy.
