"It's so cute!" One of the girls squealed standing outside in the backyard as Stef and Lena's guests trickled in. Mariana, Lexi, Callie, Tayla, Taylor and Abby were all standing in a huddled group laughing and gossiping, getting along better than they had expected due to the fact that they all belonged to different social groups. "Love your dresses, if you excuse me I have to go find Brandon." Tayla smiled hugging a few of the girls standing in a circle as she excused herself from the group. Lexi noded, "I'm gonna go find Jesus see you all later." Mariana sighed and rolled her eyes, "I'm gonna go find someone to talk to in fact, Callie I'm gonna find Jude and steal him you can find a different friend for the day." Mariana said fake pouting about not having a date. Callie looked to Taylor and Abby, "You two can't take your eyes off each other so I'm leaving now." Callie laughed and Taylor blushed. "Just the two of for the moment, sounds good to me." Abby wiggled her eyebrows and began to laugh. "Hi Taylor!" Jude exclaimed running up to the two girls, "I wanna dance with you two today!" He explained to Taylor and Abby causing both to laugh and nod, "Of course Jude." The said singsony in unison.
"Hello Captain." Lena greeted Stef's boss as she entered the house. "Hello Lena. Congratulations." Lena smiled and made small talk with the captain until the mention of Stef returning to work next was mentioned. "We always knew she would recover like a trooper." The captain said. Lena was stunned, she hadn't realized that Stef had been planning on going back to work. It had never been mentioned to her. "Oh." The captain whispered noticing Stef's terrified look as she entered the room and Lena's look of betrayal. Lena pulled Stef into a room and closed the door. He began to unbutton Stef's shirt. "Lena! Lena what are you doing?!" Stef whispered fiercely. Len sighed, "Shhh. I'm making my piece with it." She closed her eyes placing her hand over Stef's bullet wound. "If I'm going to marry you I'm going to marry all of you the bullet and the cop." Lena still had her eyes closed and didn't see Stef's quick smile. Lena slowly buttoned up Stef's shirt. "Okay." Stef whispered as the two exited the room.
"Let's get this show on the road!" Lena's father jokingly called the attention of everyone in the backyard. "Welcome friends, now that the supreme court has finally seen fit!" Lena's father began and the crowd burst into cheers about Prop 8 and DOMA being overturned. "It has finally seen fit that all people are entitled to equal protection under the law, to the same benefits and burdens, as everybody else. I'm vecry proud to welcome you here to the marriage of my daughter, Lena Elizabeth Adams to Stef Marie Foster and we're honored that you are here to witness this magical event. The moment when two souls declare that they have become one." Lena's father smiles and steps down so that Lena's mother can say something and after her Stef's mom could say her piece. The two women standing before their six children and many friends began their vows, with Lena going first, "Stef Marie Foster, you're a piece of work but you're my piece of work. I accept you, everything that makes you who you are now until the end of time, I love you." Lena choked back a sob and waited for Stef to say something, "You are the person I have been waiting for my whole life, I am so proud to be standing up here in front our friends and family letting them know just how lucky I am to have found you." Stef's voice cracking as she finished her vows, "And how much I love you." The two women stood for a minute staring into each others eyes filled with love, "May we have the rings?" Lena's father asked Jude. Jude stepped forward handing Stef a ring first and then searching his pocket to the ring he was supposed to give Lena. Stef gave Jude a quick kiss before he stepped down to stand with his siblings. Realizing that they had the wrong rings Stef and Lena burst into giggles while exchanging them. Once the rings were on Lena's father spoke, "Well, I think it's about time somebody kissed somebody." The two women went for a passionate kiss and laughed as they slowly pulled away from the kiss. The crowd burst into cheering. "We're married." Lena whispered. Stef nodded, "Why did we wait so long?" She asked smiling and the party took off.
Jesus and Lexi were laughing as they danced around, Brandon and Tayla not far from them. Mariana and Callie were standing together in the middle of the area dancing together and giggling while Jude was dancing around them in circles. Taylor and Abby were on the other side of Jesus and Lexi laughing as they tripped over each others feet. Stef and Lena were standing off to the side allowing the children to enjoy the dance floor while they mingled with guests.
Abby pulled Taylor off to a corner where she believed them to be out of sight. "Taylor. I need to tell you this now before I lose my nerve." Abby nervously said. Taylor giggled and nodded. "Taylor Belle Adams Foster, I love you more than anything else in this world. I love you." Abby smiled. Taylor slowly leaned in to kiss her girlfriend, "I love you too. And you have perfect timing for the first I love you and for our first kiss." Abby laughed nervously and nodded, "There's something else...Taylor, I want you to marry me. Not right this moment but on this date, I want to get married on your moms anniversary and I want you to promise that you will. Taylor will you marry me?" Abby whispered. Taylor laughed thinking her girlfriend was joking but could see that she wasn't. "Abby, my mothers are going to murder you, and me. We're fifteen what do we know about marriage?" Abby laughed, "That's why we wait but I'll never have the nerve to ask you again so maybe we could be..." Taylor rolled her eyes, "If my mothers are alright with it we can always be engaged then." She whispered.
Jude stole Abby away for a dance and Taylor went to approch her sisters. "What's wrong Tay? You look really pale." Callie noted, Mariana nodded, "And really happy." Taylor giggled, "I think I just got proposed to." Callie and Mariana were shocked, "Really? Moms are gonna kill you!" Mariana exclaimed. "Oh I have to go dedicate the song to moms be back, Callie keep an eye on the crazy little sister before she does anything else." Mariana joked.
"Can I have your attention?" Mariana asked calling out to the crowd. "I want to let my moms know how much I love them... so much I took my nose ring out." This gained a laugh from the crowd. "I wanted to dedicate this song to my moms." Mariana explained as the song "same Love" began to play. She pulled her moms into the center of the dance floor. Lena went and grabbed Jesus and Brandon as Stef dragged out Callie, Jude and Taylor. The family spent the song dancing with each other and laughing hysterically throughout it. There hadn't been a moment this happy between the family since Taylor had come to them ten months ago and definitely not since Callie and Jude had thankfully landed on their doorstep. The family enjoyed the moment and the rest of the day, once the guests began to file out the kids went into the house and began to crash. There were sleeping bags laid out on the living room floor because of the fact that Stef and Lena had allowed Lexi, Tayla and Abby to stay so all the girls would be sleeping downstairs that night. "Well that's an intresting way to spend your honeymoon." Sharon teased Stef as she was getting ready to leave the house, "I'll be over in the morning and you two can go to the hotel alright?" Stef rolled her eys, "yes mother."
Stef and Lena slowly made their way up the stairs for the night, Stef fell into the bed pulling Lena ontop of her, "Are you ready for bed my wife?" Stef whispered. Lena yawned, "Of couse love." Stef laughed, "And the honeymoon can start tomorrow when we get the army of children out of the hose?" Lena laughed and playfully swatted Stef. This was the happiest night of alal the people sleeping the houses lives.
