Erin stood in front the mirror looking at her in her beautiful dress. Grayson stood next to her.
"Are you excited?"
"I am. And I can't wait to be Mrs. Halstead." Erin hugged her.
Hank walked in, and stood next to the girls.
"It's time Erin."
Jay stood on the altar looking at everyone in the church. Adam next to him. Everyone from Fifty one, and The district was there.
"It's almost time Jay." Adam punched his arm.
They opened the doors. Grayson standing next to Shane. Them two both walked out. The music started playing and they opened the doors revealing Erin. Jay started crying.
"I love you Erin." whispered Hank
Erin grabbed his arm and walked down the aisle. Erin trying not to tear up. She smiles. Hank stops at the bottom on the altar,let's go of her arm and kisses her.
"Do you Jay Halstead take Erin to be your lawfully wedding wife?" Jay looked at Erin then smiled.
"I do."
The priest looked at Erin. "Do you Erin Lindsay take Jay to be your lawfully wedded husband?"
"I do."
"Now it's time for them to exchange their vows."
Erin began. "Jay,When we first met Five years I ago. I didn't think I'd be standing here marrying you. When I met Shane,I fell in love with you,because you helped Kyle raise him and that's so nice of you. Jay,You are my best friend and I will love you until the end of time. I love that you always put others first. You wanted to tell Hank and funny thing is. I wouldn't be standing on this altar without Hank. Thank you for saving me. Jay, when Nadia died you pulled me out of my dark place. You saved me. You've always had my back and I love you. I'm excited to spend the rest of my life with you as Mrs. Halstead."
The priest looked at Jay.
"Erin,when I first met you. It was during the time when my Mom died. I didn't tell anyone. Erin,you helped me overcome two deaths. Not just one. Thank you to Kyle for saving me. He saved me when We were in trouble. Mouse, my best friend. I love you brother. He saved me so I could go back home to my nephews. Erin you pulled me out of a bad place. I love you Erin and I will love you to the end of time. Erin,You are my best friend,my soulmate and my partner in crime."
Daniel came running out holding the rings. He ran to the altar. He handed Jay the ring.
"Do you Jay take Erin Rebecca Lindsay to love and to hold through sickness and in health?"
"I do."
Jay put the ring on her finger.
Erin grabbed the ring. "Do you Erin take Jay Matthew Halstead to love and to hold through sickness and in health?"
"I do." Erin put the ring on his finger.
"You may now kiss your bride." Jay pulled her in for a hug then grabbed her face and kissed her lips.
"I love you Erin Rebecca Halstead." Jay whispered
After that they left the church and drove to the reception.
"Grayson Noelle,Would you wanna dance?" asked Mikey
"I would love too." Mikey grabbed her hand and lead the dance.
Shane sat at the table waiting to give a speech. He smiled and looked around at everyone.
"It's now time for the First dance." Jay grabbed Erin hand and pulled her in. He grabbed her hand and put his other on her tiny waist.
" I'll never settle down,
That's what I always thought
Yeah, I was that kind of man,
Just ask anyone
I don't dance, But here I am
Spinning you round and round in circles
It Ain't my style, but I don't care
I'd do anything with you anywhere
Guess you got me in the palm of your hand
Cause, I don't dance
Love's never come my way,
I've never been this far
But you took these two left feet
And waltzed away with my heart
No, I don't dance, but here I am
Spinning you round and round in circles
It ain't my style, but I don't care
I'd do anything with you anywhere
Guess you got me in the palm of your hand, girl
Cause, I don't dance
Ohhh
I don't dance
Ooooh
I don't dance, but here I am
Spinning you round and round in circles
It ain't my style, but I don't care
I'd do anything with you anywhere
I don't dance, but here I am
Spinning you round and around in circles
It ain't my style, but I don't care
I'd do anything with you anywhere
Yah, you got me in the palm of your hand, girl
Cause, I don't dance
Ooh,
No...
Ooooh"
"I don't dance but Here I am spinning you round and round in circles." Jay whispered
"You are too funny Halstead." Erin laughed. Jay and Erin waltzed. Erin laid her head on his shoulder. She felt safe for the first time in her life. She felt like he was going to protect her for the rest of her life.
After they finished the first dance. They all sat back down and ate dinner. Shane stood up.
"Uncle Jay,Auntie Erin. I guess I can call you that. Uncle Jay, You took me in and taught me everything I need to know. You protected me when My dad wasn't here. Uncle Jay,Now that you married Erin. It's gonna be different. We won't have our late night talks or outings for ice cream anymore. You are going to protect her because She is about the best thing that has ever happened to you well except for me. Because obviously I'm the best thing that has ever happened to you. Uncle Jay, protect her and don't lose her. You married her for a reason. You love her and I love her too. I love you Uncle Jay. If you don't protect her for the rest of your life. You are going to regret it. And I can't lose you so Don't get nearly killed on me got it." Everyone laughed.
Jay got up and hugged him. "I love you Shane. I'll always love you kid."
After Shane finished his speech. Hank motioned for Erin to get out on the dance floor. Hank grabbed her hand and held her close. "Daddy Dance with Me" by Krystal Keith played
"I know what you see when you look at me
As we walk down the aisle
Little pink tutu, bows and tennis shoes
In the wide eyes of your child
Those are all the memories you will cherish and you'll carry
No matter how much time has come and gone
Daddy dance with me
I want you to see the woman I've become.
Daddy don't let go
I want you to know I'll always need your love.
Today I became his wife
But I'll be your baby girl for life.
Don't know what to do when I look at you
Words can't say enough
What you've done for me
You gave me what I need
You were tender, you were tough
Cause the world you built around me is the strength that will surround me
And protect me now that I am on my own
Daddy dance with me
I want you to see the woman I've become.
Daddy don't let go
I want you to know I'll always need your love.
Today I became his wife
But I'll be your baby girl
You gave me faith, you gave me life
You trusted me to live it right
And now you give your blessing on his love and mine.
Daddy dance with me
I want you to know I'll always need your love.
Today I became his wife
But I'll be your baby girl for life." Hank held her close. Erin started crying.
"Erin,You'll always be my little girl. Even if you aren't my little girl. I love you."
"Hank,You are my family. You saved me. I love you for that."
Jay hugged Grayson tight. He kissed her head.
"Gracie,I love you."
After they finished that dance. Jay and Erin stepped onto the dance floor for one last dance.
The DJ played "Die a Happy Man" by Thomas Rhett
Jay grabbed her waist and pulled her closer. "I love you Erin."
"Baby last night was hands down
One of the best nights
That I've had no doubt
Between the bottle of wine
And the look in your eyes and the Marvin Gaye
Then we danced in the dark under September stars in the pourin' rain
And I know that I can't ever tell you enough
That all I need in this life is your crazy love
If I never get to see the Northern lights
Or if I never get to see the Eiffel Tower at night
Oh if all I got is your hand in my hand
Baby I could die a happy man yeah
Happy man, baby
Mmmmm
Baby that red dress brings me to my knees
Oh but that black dress makes it hard to breathe
You're a saint, you're a Goddess, the cutest, the hottest, a masterpiece
It's too good to be true, nothing better than you
In my wildest dreams
And I know that I can't ever tell you enough
That all I need in this life is your crazy love
If I never get to see the Northern lights
Or if I never get to see the Eiffel Tower at night
Oh if all I got is your hand in my hand
Baby I could die a happy man yeah
I don't need no vacation, no fancy destination
Baby you're my great escape
We could stay at home, listen to the radio
Or dance around the fireplace
And if I never get to build my mansion in Georgia
Or drive a sports car up the coast of California
Oh if all I got is your hand in my hand
Baby I could die a happy man
Baby I could die a happy man
Oh I could die a happy man
You know I could girl
I could die, I could die a happy man."
Erin put her head on his shoulder and swayed with the music. She felt safer than she'd ever felt,with the man of her dreams. She didn't need anymore
