Hey Everyone! This is the last chapter of "The Plan"! This chapter is set roughly a year in the future from the last chapter. It ties up the loose ends. Now I present to you… Her Love…
Robin's Pov
I stood on the rooftop looking down on the people filling in the chairs. The weather was perfect… There was a gentle breeze, barely blowing the white tool at the make-shift alter. The sun was on its decent over the ocean, however, it was not yet sunset. I could see all of my teammates, a few friends, and even Batman had come to see the wedding. Fidgeting with my neck tie, I tried to fight the oncoming anxiety. I was fine to stand in front paparazzi, could kick any bad guys hind, but you put me in a wedding and I lose it.
"Robin? What are you doing out here?" I turned to see the purple-haired demoness walking onto the roof. I felt my breath leave me as I saw her. Her long hair was piled up on top of her head a few pieces hanging in ringlets to frame her face. The normally dark hair seemed to lighten in the sun. Surrounding the bun was a crystal crown that was fit for a queen. Trailing down, I saw, for the first time, her wedding dress. The dress was an off the shoulder strapless number. It was off white and snug as it hugged her curves down to her hips before the dropped waist flowed out. I knew that when she walked it would flow around her feet to make her seem as if she was floating. There was minimal diamonds on its dress itself, but the jewelry around her neck, a simple choker with a purple center, was enough. I smiled a little and looked up to her face. Her eyes had a simple sweep of gray and mascara, making her violet orbs seem deeper. Her unearthly red lips seemed fuller, but held the gentle they had made it seem all the more beautiful.
"Robin," she questioned again moving closer. I jumped lightly, realizing too late I had been staring. She grinned and came to stand beside me but out of sight of the crowd below. I smiled over at her, knowing that she was excited.
"I thought I wasn't supposed to see the dress?" She stuck her tongue out at me before laughing.
"You are the first one to see it…"She smoothed her hands down the dress before biting her lip nervously. "Do you think this is too soon?" I turned to look her in the eyes and smiled gently reaching to touch her cheek.
"It has been almost a year… Happiness is more important than time." She gently touched my hand and I saw her eyes feel with something sad. Before she lingered on that thought I put my finger to her lips. "Come on, Rae, its time." She bit her lip and nodded teleporting us both just around the corner. I kissed her cheek gently before walking to take my place at the alter. I felt everyone's eyes on me and slid easily into my confidence giving a smile to the men at my side.
As the music began I saw the bridesmaids start. Bumble-Bee was first. The dresses were a simple violet color, long and suitable to the fall temperatures. I cast a look at Speedy and saw his mouth drop open at the site of his leader. I chuckled under my breath knowing that his crush on her would come to a head tonight. Next was Starfire with a childlike grin on her face. I smiled at my sister walking down the aisle and watched her meet eyes with Aqualad. Jinx was the last bridesmaid. As she walked soft petals of roses fell around her and on the satin under her feat. Suddenly the brides song started. 'A Thousand Years' began playing and Raven stepped out around the corner. She was even more beautiful in the light of the setting sun. I felt a smile bigger than China settle over my face as she walked down the aisle. She was blushing faintly as the crowd around her bagan to mumble and smile, whispering words of beauty and gorgeous. She locked her eyes on mine with a smile before turning to the men at my side. As she grew closer, Jinx took the bouquet of roses from her and she turned to face us. I watched with a gentle smile as she joined hands with Beast Boy, her soon-to-be husband….
Beast Boy's POV
As she flowed down the aisle, I couldn't stop the tears that came to my eyes. She is so beautiful… I felt my chest swell with pride at the fact that this woman was to be mine. She stepped closer, her dress flowing around her, and laid her hand in mine. I squeezed it gently and felt the smile spread on my face. I leaned and slowly whispered to her how beautiful she was. Her blushed reddened as the Justice of the Peace, the mayor himself, asked everyone to be seated. The ceremony wasn't going to be quite that long in that neither of us wanted it to be. Timing of a sunset service is essential. After going through the normal words, not that I necessarily was paying attention because of my beautiful soon to be wife, the mayor had us face each other.
"The couple have written their own vows. Garfield," he motioned to us. I took both hands in mine, already memorizing my vows.
"Raven… I know that we may not have dated for long, but I have felt as if I have known you my whole life. You know me better than any other person in my life. You understand my pain, my soul and my dreams. We are complete opposites, I'll admit, but never have I felt closer to anyone. I promise you that I will be by your side every waking moment. I promise, that through thick and thin, I'll do everything I can to be the man you need. I promise to catch your tears, laugh with you, smile with you and never leave you… I promise to always love you Raven. Forever and Always." I watched tears come to your eyes and I smiled reaching to wipe her gentle tears. I reached and Robin handed me the diamond incrested black ring and I slid it on her finger, my hands shaking nervously. After clearing his throat from choking tears, the mayor turned to Raven and I met her eyes feeling my heart soar.
Raven POV
As I walked down the aisle, I was reminded yet again why I love him. He stood with his hands locked in front of him next to Robin, Cyborg and Aqualad. I let my eyes flicker over the others but they didn't stray long from the deep dark green eyes of Garfield. I felt all my worry and anticipation leave me and I felt the contentment and readiness replace it. As I slipped my hand into his, I felt him squeeze it sending a wave of pure love rush through our link. I blushed deeply as we turned to face the mayor. I tuned out during the beginning lost in the love and excitement coming from my handsome soon to be husband. I felt a gentle tug and we turned to face each other. As he spoke his vows to me, I felt the tears rushing forth and silently thanked Bumble Bee for not putting eye liner on my lower lash line, for surely it would be running. After her finished, BB reached and wiped the gently tears before slipping the ring onto my finger. Nodding to me, I mentally prepared myself on what to say.
"Garfield… You were once a little kid that used to annoy me to death." A few people laughed. "But soon... we grew close. You became my best friend and somewhere along the way I fell in love with you, very deeply in love with you. I know I am not the easiest girl to be with but for some reason you chose me. I promise that I will stay by your side from now until forever. I promise that I try everything in my power to be the woman you need. I promise that I will love you from now until… no beyond the day we pass. I love you Garfield Logan…" I finished knowing that it wasn't all I could say, but it was enough. He smiled and squeezed my hands tightly. I took the simple black band and slipped it on his finger my heart filled with joy.
"With that being said, there is nothing left I could say. I now pronounce you husband and wife. Garfield, please kiss your bride!" The mayor exclaimed, his laughter filling the air. I blushed brightly reaching to grab his face, pulling him down for a deep kiss, to audience be damned. He pulled me flush against him kissing me deeply. I ignored the cat calls and the 'Booyah!' as we kissed. A few minutes later, I pulled back my heart hammering in my chest.
"I present to you Mr. and Mrs. Logan!" The crowd cheered louder as we ran through the bubbles that the guest were blowing and I couldn't help but laugh joyously. We were supposed to go to our rooms to change but Garfield grinned and pulled me towards the back of the tower. I followed and we kept out of sight of the paparazzi. He pulled me close to him once out of side and kissed me deeply, his heart hammering against his chest. I sighed happily relenting myself to him and kissed him back with passion. Pulling back, he looked up to me with the biggest smile.
"I love you Rae… god I cant believe this really happened. It feels like a dream!" He laughed looking down at me. I smiled brighter and touched his face.
"And to think… it all started with a plan."
The End
