Disclaimer: I only own Evie and her family.

A/N: Thank you to everyone who read and reviewed, I love you all! I'm sad that we're nearing the end, but it had to come sooner or later. This is the wedding chapter. I hope you enjoy! Read and review!

Evie sat in her bridal suite alone, trying to gather her thoughts. A lot had happened in her life that brought her to this day. There were break ups, make ups, and tears along the way, but she wouldn't wish it away for one second. She learned a lot from her experiences over the years and it in turn helped her learn more about herself. In a way she had grown.

"If it isn't the bride to be."

With a small smile on her face, Evie turned around thinking it was Maryse or her sister. However, her smile quickly disappeared when she saw who it was. While, she had never met her, she had seen pictures of the woman standing before her.

"You're not welcome here. Get out!" Evie shouted, pointing towards the door.

"Relax, Evelyn. There's no need to get your garter in a bunch." Liz smirked, falling into an empty seat. "I just wanted to come by and give you some tips. Give you some help on living with the Cena family."

"I don't need anything from you."

"That's what you think. I all but grew up with that family." The brunette pointed out. "I'll know them better than you ever will. Besides, you and John have been together for nine months. This marriage has got disaster written all over it. I don't see it lasting very long."

All the happiness Evie was feeling earlier was drifting away. Her heart was starting to race and she felt herself getting light headed. What if everything she was saying was true? Her and John had moved fast and there was always that hint of doubt there. The same one she had been ignoring.

"Get out." She said in a hushed tone. Avoiding the other woman's gaze, Evie blinked back her tears. "Leave."

Liz stood up, pulling her skirt down a bit. With a smirk on her lips, she advanced towards the bride to be. She was enjoying what she was doing to her. Her life had fallen into shambles when John ended things between them. It grew even darker when she found out that there was another girl and they were already engaged.

"Forget about how to deal with his family. You guys are always on the road and you'll barely have to deal with them. That's the only thing I envy you for. When I was with him and he was on the road, his family was always around. It drove me mental."

It was on the tip of Evie's tongue to tell her why his family was always there, but for some reason she kept her mouth shut. To be honest, part of her was curious to hear what she had to say. And another part was intimidated by her.

"When we were together it was fireworks. We'd fight and then we'd make up." Liz devilishly smiled. "Over and over again. Then he was back on the road. Which meant more cheating for him. I always suspected that he slept with those twenty something year old fangirls that are in love with him. I called him out on it time and time again. All he did was deny it."

"You're lying." Evie muttered, trying to gain some strength in her voice. "He admitted to me that he cheated on you, but your hands aren't all that clean either."

Liz rolled her eyes and blew out a breath of frustration. "How could I cheat when his brothers were watching my every move? For a split second I would think they were gone and out pops Sean or Dan. John was paranoid, so he made up all these stories and told his family. After he did that, they started watching me like a hawk."

"I don't believe you." Her voice was stronger now. "I know John and he wouldn't do that to me or anyone."

"You sound so sure about yourself." Liz pointed out, raising her eyebrow. "Nobody knows him better than I do. We were together all through high school and most of our adult lives. Everyone thinks that he's such a good person and he isn't. John Cena is dark and brooding."

"We're talking about two completely different people here." Evie advanced towards the woman standing before her. "Dark and brooding are not the words to use to describe him. Not once has he cheated on me or done nothing to hurt me. He's sweet and loving. I love him and what you say isn't going to change that."

Liz smirked and glared at Evie. Her glare turned into a look of glee when she saw the necklace that she was sporting with her wedding dress.

"Nice necklace." Liz looked at it and then allowed it to fall back onto Evie's collarbone. "John give that to you?"

Lightly picking up the charm herself, Evie smiled, remembering when John gave it to her. They were alone in a deserted place over looking the city. It was just them and the twinkling lights. Together they sat and looked on at the world, discussing her birthday from the night before. Just before they left, he gave it to her; a necklace with a star charm.

"How did you know?"

"He gave me the exact same one." Liz laughed. "When I was sixteen he took me to some park and gave it to me there. He called me his little star or something."

"You're lying."

"I'm not lying!" Liz screamed. "John starts out as a sweet, loving guy. Then when he gets bored and wants out, he starts acting like a douche bag. He'll think of every way possible to get out until you let him go. Things go from good to bad with him faster than he can get you out of that dress."

"He won't do that to me!" Evie was fighting back the tears.

"John did it to me and he'll do it to you. Evelyn, my dear, you are no different than I."

Her doubts were coming back and she was ready to leave the church. Wedding or no she couldn't go on like this. She was about to say something when a new thought entered her mind.

"Did you break up with Liz because of me?" John nodded. "Mostly because of you. Evie," he said grabbing her hands, "I think I'm falling for you."

Chucking her doubts aside, she looked at Liz and smirked. No. This woman wasn't going to ruin her day. Liz was lying to her and there wasn't any reason for her to believe anything. She had heard the horror stories about her and decided that they were true.

"You said what you needed to say. Now get the hell out of my wedding before I personally show you out."

"Fine, you'll see. This is all going to blow up in your face." Liz predicted. "When it does, you're going to regret not listening to me. But for now, I believe a congratulations is in order. So, congratulations."

Just as fast as she appeared, she was gone from her life for good. Evie sighed, happy she was finally gone. It was time for her to marry John. All doubts were gone. However, Evie felt foolish for almost believing Liz.

"Damn her to hell, I'm getting married to the man I love." Evie whispered. "Here I come, John."

Everyone who was supposed to be there was there. John's side of the family was on the right and Evie's side was on the left. Their excited voices filled the church. Everyone was so happy that their respective family members had found each other. John and Evie could finally be happy together.

John nervously stood at the altar, watching the bridesmaids and groomsmen make their way down. They were followed by the flower girl, Evie's niece, and the ring bearer, John's nephew. Marc, his best man was standing next to him and Maryse was standing on the other side, just off to the side where Evie was going to be.

Then the wedding march started. Everyone was on their feet and anxiously awaiting the bride. Smiles and tears graced the faces of both sides of the family. But, none of their reactions could ever compare to John's.

Evie stared straight ahead, a small smile directed towards John. Her hands were gripping onto the bouquet. She was almost linked to John forever. The man she loved, the one she was supposed to be with was up ahead. Yet, the ironic part was that she had everything Ted had given her in the little bag Maryse was holding.

His feeling of nervousness disappeared when Evie came into his line of vision. She looked gorgeous. Her hair looked elegant and her make up made her green eyes pop. Her dress was silky white and glued to her body. The gown was strapless and had a sweetheart neckline. The dress was bunched up with a vine like decoration starting justing her left breast and ending mid thigh. The bottom swam out with ruffles around her feet, gracing the floor. What made his heart melt and his smile grow was that she was wearing his necklace. The one he had given her before they started seeing each other.

Her heart was racing and her palms were getting sweaty. Everything Liz had told her was pushed to the very back of her mind, in the corner labeled 'Fuck Off.' She and John loved each other and they were about to embark on their life together.

Finally, they made it and Paul let go of Evie. He smiled when he saw his John link his hand with her cousin. This guy was good for her, he thought, since Ted messed up big time.

"Who gives this woman to be married to this man?" The priest asked.

"I do." Paul smiled, stepping forward.

The priest nodded, smiling and then began the ceremony. Throughout the entire thing John and Evie's hands were laced together. Every word brought them closer to being together.

"Does anyone know any reason why this man and woman should not be joined in holy matrimony? Speak now or forever hold your peace." The priest's voice boomed throughout the church.

He waited a moment and when he saw that no one was going to speak up, he decided to continue. Just before he could his mouth open, someone spoke.

"I object. Evie, I can't watch you do this. It hurts me to see you getting married. I'm in love with you." Ted announced from the church doors. He was slowly making his way to the front. "Don't do this, please?"

Once he was done talking, everyone in the church took one collective gasp. Judging by the looks on everyone's face, they couldn't believe it. Some looked shocked, while others weren't surprised.

But there was only one person who was infuriated. And that was the man standing in front of her. Whatever happiness that was in John's eyes was soon replaced by anger. He looked like he was ready to lunge at Ted.

She looked into John's eyes pleading for him not to make a scene.

"Please." She whispered. "Don't do anything. Please. This is our day."

"Do you love him?" Was all John asked.

Evie tore her gaze away from John and she looked around the church. Everyone was whispering, trying to figure out what exactly was going on. They were all just as lost as she was. Who could blame them?

And then her gaze landed on Ted. The look on her one time lover's face said it all. He meant what he said. His eyes were pleading with hers to just leave with him.

This can't be happening. It isn't happening. There is no way her worst nightmare was coming true. That's it! She was dreaming and any minute she going to wake up and she would be in her room waiting for Maryse to get out the bathroom.

Evie tightly closed her eyes, hoping that when she opened them that she'll be in her room. Realization hit her when she opened her green eyes and saw that she was still in the church. This was her worst nightmare come true.

"I can't do this today John. I'm sorry." Evie whispered, leaning towards him, giving him a small peck on the lips. "I love you."

Not being able to make eye contact with anyone, Evie kept her eyes firmly on the floor. She picked up her dress a little so that it wouldn't completely drag on the floor.

Once she was out of the church she took a couple of deep breaths. It felt like she was suffocating in there. It almost felt like a weight was lifted off of her shoulders when stepped outside, allowing the cold air to hit her body.

What did she just do? She just walked out on the man she loved. The man that has been with her through everything for the last few months, the one person she could turn to no matter what.

"Evie!"

She turned to see Ted standing behind her. He was the last person Evie wanted to see right now. Her day was ruined because of him. Ted sabotaged her wedding day. And not only that, her mind too. Evie didn't know what to think about what he had done.

"What is it Ted?" She snapped. "What could you possibly have left to say?"

"I'm sorry."

"Sorry?" Evie laughed. "You just ruined the most important day of my life and you're sorry?"

"I'm sorry for not showing you again last week. I was a fool to let you go and I'd be an even bigger one to let you marry him. You belong with me, Evie. Words cannot express how much I love you."

Evie lunged at him, throwing her weak fists into his chest. Tears were streaming down her face. Everything had really come to a head. Inside the church she had one man who loved her and she had another one standing in front of her.

Then it occurred to her, she had to decide right there who she wanted to be with.
