Hey ladies. Here is part 3 to this wedding. Hope you enjoy and please leave me a review. Love Jess.
The music was buzzing and everyone was having a great time. I watched Sheamus and Layla dancing together. Layla looked so happy, I felt really pleased that Sheamus had asked her to dance, at least he didn't disregard her feelings all together.
"I'm sorry I couldn't be what you wanted me to be Layla" said Sheamus.
She blushed in embarrassment; of course he could sense her intense crush on him. "Oh… um… that's alright" she said quietly, not being able to look at him.
Sheamus chuckled, "I just need to get back home. It's where I belong. You should visit me one day if you would like?"
Her brown eyes lit up and she grinned, "Of course!" She blushed again, "I mean… thank you for the invitation." She looked at her watch, "Oh. I really have to go. I have a friend visiting me tomorrow and I don't want to be late."
"Oh" said Sheamus as he let go of her. He scratched his head as he looked at her, "I guess this is goodbye, Layla."
She frowned, she felt really upset and her eyes began welling up but she sucked it up. Layla felt stupid for crying over a guy who didn't really show interest in her but she had really liked him. "Goodbye Sheamus" she said putting her hand out, "I really enjoyed our time together."
Sheamus shook her hand and smiled, then pulled her arm in closer toward him and then kissed her lips lightly, just touching before pulling away. He grinned, "I'm sorry – I hope that's okay."
Layla slowly opened her eyes, her hand touching her lips. She blushed again, "That was… fine."
Sheamus laughed and then gave her a hug. "I'll miss you."
She hugged him tighter, "I'll miss you too." She pulled away as much as she didn't want to she showed him another smile before leaving him. As she was walking toward the front door, I walked toward her. "Lea!"
"Everyone has been telling me about how you've been looking for me" I said, "But from what I just saw, looks like you're fine."
Layla giggled, "I'm sorry, I just wanted to find you to ask if maybe you'd try to talk to Sheamus for me – I know you two are good friends. But I guess he could see how much I liked him."
How I wished that Sheamus had just fallen in love with Layla, she was so loving and beautiful. "That's not a bad thing. You obviously meant something to him" I said.
She shrug her shoulders, "That was more like a sorry I only see you as a friend kiss. But hey it was nice. See you at work Lea."
I felt saddened as she left me and walked outside. Layla was such a gorgeous girl with so much heart – but I was sure she would a much better man who would love her for how perfect and genuine she was. I kind of hoped that it would be soon. I looked through the crowd of tables and found my husband sitting all by himself with a glass of scotch in his hand. I smiled instantly as his eyes rose to meet mine. He grinned and then gulped the rest of his drink and placed the glass on the table. I wandered through the crowd to him and sat next to him.
"Hello there. You've been drinking quite a lot" I teased once I smelt his breath.
Wade chuckled, "Just been enjoying the night. I really liked your speech. But… I just have one question."
I listened on, "Yes?"
"Am I the right person to be married to you?" Wade asked, his green eyes seemed to be not only staring at me but into my soul.
I shook my head, "What kind of question is that? Of course you are." I reached my hands out and placed them in his, "I would only want you to be my husband."
He gave a gentle smile and then his eyes moved to the red haired Irishman who was chatting to his sister. I followed his gaze and then lowered my head. Oh my god. Did that idiot Sheamus talk to Wade about something that he shouldn't have! I felt so ashamed and even unfaithful. Wade's eyes were now locked on to me, "I just… sometimes feel like there might be other suitors that may make you happier than me" he said. "I love you Lea, but I also hurt you and I hate that I do that. I hate that the reason you cry is me. I don't mean to do that at all."
Other suitors? "I don't understand… Where did you get this from? We love each other but sometimes we have to work a little harder at our marriage – but that's alright, I'm willing to do it for you, Wade" I said. "I'd do anything to stay with you. Wouldn't you do the same?"
Wade eyes intensified as he let my hand go and slammed his palm on the table, "Of course I would! I can't tell you what I'd give up just to keep you in my life, what I'd do to keep you sleeping next to me. I would never give up on you – if that's what you're thinking unless… you asked me to" His voice grew soft and weak.
"That's something I just could never ask of you" I said.
He grinned, his eyes crinkled as they did. He stood up and put out his hand, "Could I ask my wife, for a dance?"
I blushed, "Of course – I never get tired of dancing with my husband." He held on to my hand and then led me toward the dance floor which was completely empty so I was surprised and also impressed at how gutsy Wade was being. He pulled me into his chest and wrapped me in his large arms. I followed as he swayed me to the music. I wrapped my arms around his neck and rested my head against his chest. "You just have no idea, how perfect you do you?"
I heard his warm chuckle, "No I don't. Please tell me." That cocky bastard.
"You throw this beautiful reception for Phil and Adele – it's just beautiful and they really appreciate it" I said. "And I saw how you handled Randy being in your house – you were very calm and cool about it. I appreciate that."
"It was nothing" he said.
I shook my head, "It wasn't nothing. I know how much you dislike him and I think you really handled him being here with class." I knew that I was just feeding his ego but I wanted to let him know that I was being appreciative.
"You still even took care of Drew, even though he's been stuck in that room all day but I'm sure if Randy caught him here, there would be a brawl – but you're just so perfect Wade Barrett." I stared into his eyes and kissed him full on the lips. I felt Wade pick me up slightly as we kissed. I pulled away and then he placed me back on the ground. We continued swaying; Wade had me in a tight grasp. I could have fallen asleep in his arms. But as I leaned my head against his chest I stared out to the people. More and more people were leaving. I spotted Sheamus watching us. He had one hand in his pocket and a bottle of beer in the other. Suddenly a smile appeared on his face. He looked weirdly happy for us; he raised his beer in the air and then went to drink it. I smiled back at him and then closed my eyes as Wade swayed me.
….
A limousine was waiting outside the house, for Adele and Phil. They were off to live their married life together. After a lot of emotional hugs and kisses the bride and groom sat in the limousine. Donna looked upset and Sheamus had his arm around her to comfort her. Adele winded her window down and waved to everyone who was standing outside
"Bye Wade!" called Adele, "Thank you for the reception party. You're a very kind person."
Wade grinned, "Anything for my two favourite employees."
Phil popped his head out the window, "Thank you so much Wade."
"It's no problem – go enjoy being married" he said as he caressed his arm over me, "That's the fun part."
I nodded, "Have fun being married!"
"We will" said Adele. "By the way – you were the best maid of honour anyone could have".
"You were the most beautiful bride" I said.
"Thank you" she said before she kissed her husband affectionately and the limousine began driving away. We waved at them again before they disappeared from the street.
Phil kissed his bride again, "I love you."
"I love you too" she said as she rested her head against his shoulder. She quickly rose up – remembering that Drew had been waiting for her.
"What's wrong?" asked Phil, "Did you forget something?"
She stared back at her husband and shook her head, "No, I have everything here."
….
As I walked back inside alongside Wade I linked my arm with his, "I can't believe they did it. They got married."
"Let's hope they have as good of a marriage as we are" said Wade. Sheamus slowly approached us – it was still a little awkward.
"Hey guys, I just wanted to say that I'm about to go. Just wanted to say bye – you know I'll be leaving for home tomorrow morning so I should really head out" he said, both his hands in his trouser pockets.
Wade put out his hand, "Well Sheamus, it was a pleasure to meet you. I'm going to miss you mate."
Sheamus shook his hand firmly, "You're a really great guy. I'm glad to call you a friend."
Both men gave each other respectable nods and then Wade stared at me, "I'm just going to check on Donna, the poor woman has been a mess since Adele left and I think I'm the only one who can cheer her up." He sent me a wink before leaving the two of us alone.
I knew it! He did know! But I loved him even more because he was kind enough to let Sheamus and I say goodbye. My eyes rose up to meet Sheamus as he scratched the back of his head, he looked nervous like he had no idea how to speak to me. "It was a great ceremony and even more great reception" he finally spoke.
I nodded, "It was beautiful. Those two looked really happy. Adele just looked spectacular."
"You looked very beautiful" he said, "You were a very pretty maid of honour."
I smiled. "Thank you. You were a very handsome brother on the bride" I joked.
He chuckled, "Thanks." We were both silent. I guessed that neither of us wanted to say goodbye. "I'm sorry Lea."
"What? Sorry for what?"
"Everything."
"You didn't do anything wrong – it's just… you're not Wade and you never will be" I said.
Sheamus lowered his head and nodded.
"I just hope I didn't lose a good friend. You know you were really there for me when I was going through something. I'm so appreciative of our friendship and I didn't want to lose that."
He nodded, "You'll never lose me. It was the least I could do – I don't like to see you hurt, lass."
I chuckled, "That's sweet." Suddenly I felt my eyes sting and then they became moist, "I'm going to really miss you."
"I'm going to miss you the most" he said. "Would it be okay if I were to do something?"
I stared at him in fear, "Depends what it is?"
He smirked, "It's not what you're thinking – even though I'd like to do that. Just close your eyes."
"Please don't do something that I might hate you for."
"I promise. Just close your eyes" he said. I closed them reluctantly and then felt him press his lips to my cheek. I opened my eyes and found him grinning back – his blue eyes looked glossy. "Goodbye Lea."
"Goodbye Sheamus" I said as I watched him leave our house.
