Chapter 15 - The Big Day
Jinx POV
Today's the day. Today I marry the man I love. The man who risked his life on multiple occasions for me and nearly died because of it. And I couldn't be happier. I never thought that I could ever find love, but then he came into my life and I fell head over heels in love with him. A hero fell in love with me, a villain, a Romeo and Juliet story if ever there was one. All our friends and his family were there to support us. Billy, Robin, Beast Boy, and Cyborg, were his ushers and Wally was his best man. Tracy, Starfire, Sarah (the woman Cyborg was dating), and Linda (the woman Wally was dating) were my bridesmaids and I asked Raven to be my maid of honor. We decided our daughter Rosie would be the flower girl for the wedding. There was no father in my life to give me away, so I asked Cyborg if he'd do the honors. He said he'd be delighted to, and he's been like a big brother to me since the Titans let me be a member. Today really was the happiest moment of my life, for more than one reason. So why couldn't I show it?
Quakes POV
Today I marry the woman of my dreams. This truly was the happiest day of my life. My parents came from Jump City for the wedding to see their little boy get married. I was nervous as hell, I started thinking that maybe she wouldn't go through with this. My nerves finally calmed down when I saw her walking down the aisle with Cyborg. She had on a beautiful white wedding dress, with the necklace I gave her years ago.
She reached the altar and the pastor began, "Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today..."
I looked over at Jinx, who didn't have as big a smile on her face as I did. It looked like she wasn't happy about this. I couldn't understand why, so I whispered to her, "Hey, what's wrong Jinx? This is your wedding day, you should be happy, not sad." What she said next surprised me.
"You're just marrying me because of the child we had together, aren't you," she whispered back.
"What? No. I'd want to marry you regardless of whether we had Rosie or not." I whispered to her.
"Yes you are, you proposed to me the day we both found out I was pregnant with her," she whispered back.
I sighed and continued, "Jinx, I decided I was going to propose to you that day long before I found out about Rosie. After the bank robbery, I stopped at the jewelry store that I ordered the engagement ring from to pick it up. I planned out how I was going to propose to you, and when. I wanted to propose to you, it wasn't just because of Rosie. I love you Jinx, and now we have the rest of our lives together to let me show you how much I do."
At this she finally cracked a smile and said, "I love you too Nicholas." The pastor was just finishing up when we stopped talking to each other.
"Do you, Nicholas Mills, take this woman to be you lawfully wedded wife? To have and to hold, to love and to cherish, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, and to forsake all others for as long as you both shall live?"
"I do."
"Do you, Jennifer Diaz, take this man to be you lawfully wedded husband? To have and to hold, to love and to cherish, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, and to forsake all others for as long as you both shall live?"
"I do."
"By the power vested in me by the city of Los Santos, I now pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss the bride." The new couple shared their first passionate kiss as husband and wife. "I would like to introduce everyone to Mr. and Mrs. Mills."
The reception flew by quickly compared to the ceremony, the best man, maid of honor, ushers, bridesmaids, and my parents each gave a speech about us as a couple. Jinx tapped me on the shoulder during this to say something.
"What is it sweetheart?"
"There's something I have to tell you. I'm...pregnant." I looked at her and couldn't believe it.
"Y-you are? When did you find out?"
"Almost a week ago, I started feeling nauseous. So a few days ago I got a test. It said positive. We're going to be parents again and Rosie's going to be a big sister." I put my arm around her shoulder, pulled her close to me, and gave her a kiss on her cheek.
"I'm married to the girl of my dreams and we're going to have another child, I couldn't be happier Jinx."
It was time for the two of us to share our first dance as a new couple. The DJ played the song I had selected just for us. "Gotta be Somebody" by Nickelback.
This time, I wonder what it feels like
To find the one in this life, the one we all dream of
But dreams just aren't enough
So I'll be waiting for the real thing, I'll know it by the feeling
The moment when we're meeting, will play out like a scene
Straight off the silver screen
So I'll be holding my breath, right up 'til the end
Until that moment when, I find the one that I'll spend forever with
Cause nobody wants to be the last one there
Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares
Someone to love with my life in their hands
There's gotta be somebody for me like that
Cause nobody wants to do it on their own
And everyone wants to know they're not alone
There's somebody else that feels the same somewhere
There's gotta be somebody for me out there
Tonight, out on the street, out in the moonlight
And dammit this feels too right, it's just like d ja vu
Me standing here with you
So I'll be holding my breath, could this be the end?
Is it that moment when, I find the one that I'll spend forever with
Cause nobody wants to be the last one there
Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares
Someone to love with my life in their hands
There's gotta be somebody for me like that
Cause nobody wants to do it on their own
And everyone wants to know they're not alone
There's somebody else that feels the same somewhere
There's gotta be somebody for me out there
(Instrumental)
You can't give up, (when you're looking for) a diamond in the rough (cause you never know)
When it shows up, (make sure you're holding on)
Cause it could be the one, the one you're waiting on
Cause nobody wants to be the last one there
And everyone wants to feel like someone cares
Someone to love with my life in their hands
There's gotta be somebody for me, oh
Nobody wants to go it on their own
And everyone wants to know they're not alone
There's somebody else that feels the same somewhere
There's gotta be somebody for me out there
Nobody wants to be the last one there
Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares
There's somebody else that feels the same somewhere
There's gotta be somebody for me out there
As the song was playing Jinx asked me, "Why did you choose this song?"
"For most of my life, I never thought I'd ever fall in love. I'd been rejected so many times I thought I'd die alone. But then I met someone, someone who I fell head over heels in love with and I knew she was the one for me. After some ups and downs I realized she feels the same way about me that I feel about her. I believed that there was someone out there that was right for me and I found her. That's why I chose this song." The song ended and both of us held the other close."I love you Jinx," I said to her.
"I love you too Nicholas," she replied.
Then came the time for everyone to head back home, and the three of us, myself, my new wife, and our daughter, headed over to Jump City with them. She was going to spend the next few weeks with her aunts, uncles, and cousins while Jinx and I went on our honeymoon. It was going to be a wonderful life together with them. And I was lucky to have it.
And that's that. The next, and last, chapter will be an epilogue.
After this I'll work on another Teen Titans story entitled - Smoke and Mirrors - and a Halo crossover story called - Infinite Possibilities 1 - hope you guys enjoy those as much as this one.
And one last thing - Thank you to everyone who read this story and enjoyed it. The support means a lot to me, especially since this is my first Fan Fiction I ever wrote.
