So the hotel that I am staying at does have the internet....so I can post the next chapter....yeah

There are two flashbacks in this one....but they are so similar that it doesn't make sense to have two chapters. The first is inspired by my drabble for te prompt "Blue Jeans" and the second on is just basically Ryan singing the song " Amazed" by Lonestar...which is one of my fav songs.

Chapter 3: Nerves

" Awe that was sweet," Marissa sighed when her grandmother finished. " I mean....he sang you your song as a propsal." She sighed again.

" You're such a hopeless romantic," Travis teased his sister. He wasn't really into the mushy gusy lovey dovey stuff.

" And," she retaliated, ' What's so wrong with that?"

he shrugged his shoulders. " Whatever Issy."

" Grandma," Alannah said suddenly. " Did you look like a princess on your weddign day?"

Ryan smiled at this. " Yes she did pumpkin. She was the most beautiful princess I have ever seen." Kelsi blushed slightly at this. even after all these years she still got a little bit embarrassed when someone complimented her.

Alexis gasped. " Really? Do you have pictures?"

Ryan nodded and got up from his chair. " Yeah, I think so." He went into the house and returned a moment later with a photo album. He sat sat back down on his chair and the twins sat on his lap. Together they opened the album and began to look at the pictures.

" Wow," Alanna exclaimed. " You really are very pretty grandma."

Kelsi beamed. " Why thank you sweetheart."

Marissa walked up behind her grandfather and looked down at the pictures too. " That is a lovely dress. I want a dress like that when I get married."

" Well," Kelsi began,"if you are still short by the time that you get married, then perhaps I coule give it to you."

The young girl's eyes lit up. " Really?"

" Of course. I mean I was going to give it to your mothe, but she surpassed me in height when she was twelve, so that didn't work. but you seemed to have inherited my genes in that department, Marissa."

Marissa smirked. " I never thought me being short might be a good thing."

" Oh, it does haev it's advantages."

" I bet." Marissa smiled and then looked back at the pictures. " You know, there is a girl in my class who wants to wear jeans on her wedding. Could you imagine that? What kind of girl wants that?"

At this Ryan laughed and Marissa glanced at him. " Don't tell me grandma wanted to do that too."

" Kind of, " he replied.

" Actually," Kelsi clarified, " I was so nervous about the wedding that I was still in my jeans only two hours before the ceremony. Trust me when I say this girls, no matter how much you perpare for your wedding day, and no matter how much you love the guy you are going to marry, you are still very nervous...."

kelsi took a huge breath as she looked out of her room window at the grounds of Lava Springs. She had to sdmit that everything did look amazing, and she had been thankful that the Evans family had contributed financially and had agreed to not go over the top with everything. But that didn't help the fact that she was still nervous about the whole thing.

She turned away from the window and glanced at herslef in the full length mirror. She was still not wearing her dress and knew that she should really be getting ready. But she just couldn't. the more she thought about the fact that all eyes would be on the bride, the more she just wished they could run away and get married in a private ceremony.

Suddenly she heard her room door open and when she turned around she was surprised to see Ryan standing in the doorway. " You're not supposed to see me before the wedding....it's bad luck." she siad nervously.

He just smiled and walked over to her, placing his arms arounf her waist. " You're not even in your dress," he pointed out as he leaned down to peck her on the lips.

" What if i am going to wear this?"

He glanced down at her and smirked as he looked over what she was wearing. " Are you telling me that you are going to wear blue jeans and a bright yellow tank top to your wedding?"

She nodded. " Perhaps I am."

He laughed and felt her relax a tiny bit. " Could you imagine the look on Sharpay's face. It would totally be worth it."

She laughed too. " Yeah...I am pretty sure that she would never talk to me again."

He shrugged his shoulders." But would that really be such a bad thing?"

She sighed as she pulled him closer and put her head on his chest. " Perhaps not."

He kissed the top of her head, a concerned look appearing on his face. " You sound stressed baby, what's wrong?"

She shrugged. " Nothing"

" Kelsi?"

She slide out of his embrace and began to pace back and forth in front of him. " It's ....just...ahhh...why can't we get married somewhere else. Without all this." She pointed out the window at the decorated grounfs to emphasize her point. He frowned at her sudden change of mood. " I mean....oh...I have no idea what I am talking about."

" Come here Kels," he pulled her into another hug and stroked her hair. " It's going to be fine. Trust me. I am going to leave right away before my sister figures out that I have snuck off to see you, and you are going to put on that lovely dress of yours. Then in a couple of hours you are going to walk down the aisle and we are going to get ?" She nodded and he contiued. " And we are going to be happy." She looked up at him and he kissed her.

When they pulled apart she had a small smile on her face. " I really do you love Ryan Evans."

He smiled back. " And I really love you Kelsi Nielsen. Now come on, go get ready. And don't worry, I'll be waiting for you at the alter." And with that he left her to get ready for her big day."And he was waiting, right?' Marissa asked with a smile.

" Of course, just like he promised."

" But you were still nervous, weren't you?"

Kelsi nodded. " Very much. But I think the thing I was most nervous about was the first dance."

Eric nodded. " Because Grandpa is a better dancer then you and you didn't want to look like a fool when you were with him."

" Exactly....how did you know that?'

Eric shrugged." Sara is the same way, even though she is a good dancer." Sara is the leading lady in the fall show, while Eric is the leading man. " she is always afraid that she is going to mess up."

" And did you make a fool of yourself?" Alexis asked quietly.

Kelsi shook her head. " No, your grandfather calmed me down."

" And how did he do that?"

" He sang to her," Marissa replied with a smile. At the look she got from her younger siblings she added. ' Grandpa used to sing to me when I was upset when I was younger."

Kelsi nodded. " Yes, your grandfather's voice seemes to have the ability to soothe the soul...."

ryan put on a huge smile as he lead his wife to the center of the dance floor. he looked down at her and felt her shaking as he pulled her close. He lightly kissed her forehead. " Relax, baby. It'll be fine."

She frowned slightly as the first cord of the song began to play. " I can't. Everyone is looking at us."

" Ignore them," he whipsered as he began to step in time with the musc. " Pretend it's just the two of us." But she was still nervous, so he leaned his head down so his mouth was close to her ear and began to sing along. " Every time our eys meet, this feeling inside me, it almost more then I can take. Baby when you touch me, I can feel how you love me and it just blows me away." At the sound of his voice she began to clam down and let him lead her around the floor. " I've never been this close to anyone or anything. I can hear your thoughts. I can see your dreams" He spun her around slowly as the chorus began. "I don't know you do what you do. I'm so in love with you. It just keeps getting better. I want to spend the rest of my life with you by my side, forever and ever. Every little thing that you do, baby I'm amazed by you."

He stopped singing and looked down at his bride. There were tears in her eyes and her gently wiped them away. " I mean it Kelsi, I really do. I am amazed by you." And he leaned down to kiss her again.
