Hello! I'm here for my Wednesday night update of "Rated R Love Affair"! Apparently, I'm holed up in my playroom right now because of my right ankle. You see, I was walking with my dad and dog this afternoon, right? Well, I was walking down the road on some snow, and I unknowingly slipped and fell backward on my ankle. Now the right side of the ankle is swollen, and it hurts to walk. :'( Sorry if I sounded pathetic there, but I'm really frustrated right now! Anyway, thanks to Danielle for being the only person to review Chapter 24!

Danielle: Figured you would like the chapter! XD

Now comes the wedding chapter! Enjoy! BTW, I'm not sure where the 6/22/10 episode of SD took place, so I'll say it happens in Tampa, FL (Edge's hometown).

Chapter 25: The Wedding

Location: Tampa, Florida

It was one week after Maria had finally been rescued from Phil, Michelle and the SES. But tonight was hosting a happier occassion. Tonight was the night that Adam and Maria would be happily married on Smackdown! This had come about after Adam won over Phil at Extreme Rules a couple months prior.

Backstage with the Divas

Maria was backstage with the Divas, getting ready for her wedding. She was in her pink mermaid gown that she'd bought with her friends, and her red hair was in loose curls. The other girls, meanwhile, were in light pink dresses.

"Yay! Girls, I cannot wait for the end of Smackdown!" Maria cried out. "I am finally getting married to the love of my life, Edge!" She had been thinking about this wedding since Edge won at Extreme Rules, so she didn't want anybody to ruin her big day.

"We can't wait either, Ria!" Mickie exclaimed, hugging her friend tight.

"Yeah. This is going to be the best wedding ever!" Natalya shouted, giving Maria a hug too.

"Yes Nattie! I agree a thousand percent!" screamed Melina. The other Divas just laughed and giggled.

"Um... Hey Nattie?" Maria asked her.

"Yeah Ria?" Natalya asked back, curious.

"I was actually thinking about this for a long time. Nattie Neidhart?"

"Yes?" Natalya was definitely curious and wanted to know what was up.

"Since I consider you one of my absolute best friends outside the WWE... Would you be my maid of honor tonight?"

Natalya just stared at Maria for a moment, trying to decide if her friend was being serious or not.

"Oh my gosh, Ria!" she gasped. "Are you serious? Are you for real?"

"Yes I am," Maria replied nonchalantly. "You've been there for me an awful lot lately. And you even took me to my last doctor's appointment, so I figured I'd ask you."

Giving her friend a huge smile, Natalya cried out, "YES! Of course I would! Thanks so much for asking!"

"You're welcome!" And after the two Divas embraced each other, all the girls got ready to head out to gorilla, because the wedding would be starting pretty soon.

Wedding Segment

Adam and Maria were standing in front of the pastor, as well as their WWE friends and the fans. Adam had came out earlier with Jay as his best man, and Bret had been the one to give Maria away.

"Adam Joseph Copeland, do you take Maria Louise Kanellis to be your lawfully wedded wife, till death do you part?" the pastor asked.

Of course, Adam was quick to say, "Yes I do!"

Then the pastor turned to Maria and asked her, "And Maria Louise Kanellis, do you take Adam Joseph Copeland to be your lawfully wedded husband, till death do you part?"

Maria said, "I..."

"DON'T!" a man's voice shouted out. The audience looked by the stage, and saw Phil and Michelle by the entranceway! Upon seeing them, everybody booed the two individuals very loudly.

"SHUT UP!" Michelle screamed at the audience. "Nobody wants to see these two get married! They should be watching ME, the best Women's Champion in this company of all time!"

"You know what Chelle, you know what?" Phil asked her. "I think the fans would want to see Maria getting married to ME!"

"Hmmm..." Michelle pretended to think about it before saying, "Why, I think that sounds like a great idea!"

Just as Phil and Michelle were about to walk down the ramp to confront their foes, Glen, Bret and the Hart Dynasty stood up from their chairs straight away. And while Phil confronted them, the lights went dark, and everybody in the arena heard...

GONG! GONG!

The lights came back on, and Mark emerged, standing in front of the five guys and looking at Phil and Michelle. Looking at Michelle briefly, Mark went right after Phil and tombstoned him on the ramp. Then he took Phil's lifeless body over to the side of the ramp and chokeslammed him off! Michelle looked where Phil had fallen, then she looked at Mark, shocked.

"What'd you do that for?" she asked him, to which he just shrugged. While Michelle was yelling at him, she felt somebody grab her hair and push her backward. After gathering her bearings, Michelle looked up to find Layla standing over her!

"LAY?!" Michelle screamed. "What are you doing? I thought we were friends!"

"No, Chelle. Not anymore," Layla simply replied.

Michelle angrily stood herself up and told Layla off for a while before walking back to the locker room. However, Layla stayed with everybody else to watch the end of the wedding unfold.

Looking a little confused, the pastor asked again, "Maria, do you take Adam..."

"YES I do!" Maria quickly shouted out.

"Then, by the power invested in me by the city of Tampa, Florida, I here by pronunce you two husband and wife. Adam, you may now kiss the bride!"

Adam and Maria kissed each other passionately while their co - workers and the fans applauded happily. Then Adam picked up his pregnant bride and carried her to the backstage, and the other WWE employees were right behind them. What a great way to end the show!

Chapter done! Oh, the above author's note was actually written yesterday. Just so you don't get confused. Enjoy!
