"Kara honestly what do you want this time?" I answered the phone rather annoyed since the phone had been ringing the whole day with suggestions for the wedding.
"Alex come down to the shopping mall. ASAP."
"Kara what are you doing…" I asked suspicious since the last time she had taking me shopping was when I had the school prom.
"See you there." She hung up and I sighed knowing that I couldn't get out of it now.
"Is Kara bothering you too?" I heard a familiar voice sound from behind me that made my heart jump
"Ack, she's dragging me somewhere. Has she been bothering you to?"
"Well she just happened to drop a few hints to the agents at the DEO, they wanted to take me shopping for a suit. It was bad Alex." He collapsed onto the couch exhausted
"What did you say to them?"
"I said that they probably won't have a suit in my size. They looked at me like I was mad before they realized." He laughed
"They really are forgetful, aren't they? Is there any chance that we can run away and elope?" I tried playfully scooting closer to him
"Is this because you still have to tell your mother and sister that you're pregnant." He saw what was bothering me straight away
"Yes, I have no idea how to tell my mother that we're going to have a child before were even married."
"Well you're going to have to tell her sometime." He looked at her stomach which seemed to already have formed a small bump.
"Are you calling me fat J'onn J'onzz?" I tried to sound shocked but before I could do anything I felt J'onn's lips on mine.
I leaned into him feeling everything descend into total heaven. He pushed me down until he was on top kissing me.
"Alex stop snogging J'onn and get your butt down here!" I heard Kara's voice reside from the window
J'onn quickly scrambled off me blushing wildly not looking up. I couldn't look at Kara feeling the hot embarrassment creep up into my cheeks.
"I'm coming." I quickly got up and went to the window giving J'onn one last smile before Kara picked me up and started to fly off.
"Alex have you put on some weight?" Kara asked the moment she had lifted me up
"First you bust in on us, and then you insult me. You're going real well Kara." I commented dryly
Then I saw where Kara was heading and groaned. She dropped me off on the roof of a huge dressing mall before quickly putting on her normal clothes. I saw Mum and Lucy waiting there for me. They smiled brightly when I walked in.
"Alex before you ask, you have to wear a proper dress." Kara said when I opened my mouth
"Not what I was going to say." I mumbled knowing that I had no hope of getting out of this
Lucy shot me an amused look.
"Now let's get started." Kara clapped her hands in excitement and to my astonishment a bunch of shop assistants came through with piles of white dresses.
"Kara, before you shove me into any dresses. I have already ordered a gown" I saw surprise flicker through all three's faces
"Oh no. Alex what did you order. It is a wedding gown?" Kara asked probably thinking that I had ordered something hidiouse.
"It is a gown thankyou Kara. It has some alterations to it though."
"Alex please tell me that you haven't added a gun belt or something like that to it." Mum's disapproving voice came in
"No it does not." I glared at my sister and Mum "It has J'onn's crest on it and it's in red that's all."
"But honey why do you want to be married in red." Came Mum's shocked voice
"I was talking to J'onn and I found out that back where he came from it was traditional to be married in red. I want to surprise him." I thought of what he would say when he saw me
"Oh."
"I didn't know that J'onn had a crest." Lucy finally spoke up
"Well he didn't really want to talk about but after a while he drew me a picture. It's on the ring."
I held it up and if you looked closely you could see it engraved into the ruby. The crest was a like a shield and on it were the two moons of Mars and the sun. There was a folktale behind them you could also see the star constellations.
"Wow that is…beautiful. Alex you are a lot softer then you like to show." Lucy commented
"Can we see the dress?" Kara asked excitedly
"Yes but do NOT tell J'onn about this. I want it to be a surprise. Have you sorted out your bridesmaid dress?" I asked Kara
"I will after I see the dress."
With that we all left to head towards my apartment. And for once in our lives we weren't attacked by maniac aliens wanting world domination. I opened the apartment door and I went to my room and grabbed the dress. I pushed the silk against me stroking the fabric.
"What do you think?" I walked into the lounge holding it up
All three of them gasped. The red and gold trail of sequins caught the sunlight lighting up my face.
"Wow, Alex…" None of them could speak
I then put it away there was more to it but I wanted to surprise everyone. I grinned happily knowing that I would knock everyone off their feet. Especially J'onn.
"So how much longer till your married?" Mum asked
"Only one week. The whole DEO is running around organizing it." Lucy answered
"What have you organised?" I asked looking at them
"You'll see."
-00-
"Hello Madam President." I answered the phone quickly walking away so Alex and J'onn wouldn't hear me
"Hello Director Lane, I got your request and I'm phoning to tell you that I am more than happy to perform the wedding ceremony. I would be honoured to after what Agent Danvers and Director J'onn done for us."
I let out a sigh of relief. I couldn't think of many people who would have done this for an alien. "Thank you on behalf of Director J'onn and Agent Danvers."
"I'll be there on the day." She hung up
Alex and J'onn were having a public wedding at the botanic gardens. I knew that even though Alex was the hard-core agent everyone believed her to be she also still had a bit of a childish dream of things.
We had finally gotten all the invitations out and apparently Catco media was going to be there to. That had been Kara's fault but Alex and J'onn hadn't been too bothered too much even though I had ordered a few of the agents to help keep the public out as much as possible.
"Hey Vasquez I've got good news. We got the President coming down." I went up to her smiling
"You got who?!" Came J'onn's disbelieving voice from the back of the DEO
Oh crap super hearing I had completely forgotten.
"The president is coming to perform the ceremony." I explained
J'onn just looked at me flabbergasted not knowing what to say.
"Wait you got the president to come down?"
"Being a Generals daughter does help. Oh and my dad is coming down to watch to." I thought I might as well tell him
Before he could say anything Vasquez interrupted. "Um Ma'am, Sir Maxwell Lord just contacted us."
"Oh great what does he want." I knew quite well that J'onn didn't like Maxwell Lord
"He just invited himself to the wedding." I looked at J'onn whom didn't seem pleased
"While you're at it invite Cat Grant." He put in dryly
"Um actually Sir, Supergirl invited her." Vasquez looked a bit worried
He rubbed his temple in defeat. "Well it's not too bad."
Then he started smiling again like an idiot I guessed he started to think about Alex. "I'm going to complete the rest of that paperwork." And with that he quite literally skipped to his office
"Twenty bucks that he doesn't finish that paper work today." I turned Vasquez
"Fifty that he doesn't finish until after the wedding." Vasquez replied suddenly hearing humming echoing through the DEO
A week later
"Okay everyone let's head to the botanic gardens." Lucy shouted to the DEO when she saw the time
As the DEO Ute's drove towards the gardens J'onn decided to fly. As he soared through the sky he heard cheers erupt he landed outside the gate. He quickly walked in not liking huge crowds he hurried down to the grass lawn where most of the DEO was seated and the president stood at the front.
"Director J'onzz." Nodded General Lane as he passed
"Lucy how long until we start?" He walked up hurriedly to his best woman
"Only about another quarter of an hour. Calm down, you'll be fine." She soothed thinking that when he saw what Alex was wearing he would probably faint.
Alex had Kara helping her change. She slipped on the dress careful not to rip the delicate fabric. The fire red skirt fell down like a waterfall to her ankles framing her waist perfectly. The bodice was the same red but on her chest was J'onn's crest stitched on in gold with Martian script above it.
H'ria W'rai S'ght
It translated into The Father, The brother, the sister. It represented the Sun and Mar's two moons. Alex had a trail that was made out of gold and red sequins which when the sun shone on erupted into flames. But that still wasn't the most beautiful part of the outfit.
Alex opened a small case and to Kara's shock pulled out a small crown. It was made out of a red like rock which Kara guessed was part of Mars. But right in the centre was a Ruby that wasn't big as such. But shone so brightly even Kara had to cover her eyes for a moment.
"Kara what do you think?" Alex asked worriedly
"Alex…it's stunning. You look ready to kill." She gasped not able to say anything
"Well, can we go?"
"Hey think of this you are the only person in the world to be flown to their wedding by Supergirl." Kara was wearing her Superhero suit.
Kara took Alex into her arms and flew out the window. Slowly not wanting to damage Alex's dress. People cheered when they saw them Supergirl carrying a bride to her wedding, it was truly spectacular.
When they got to the gates they saw loads of people there. Alex asked Kara to put her down just outside the gate so she could make an entrance. A spot cleared immediately. Kara placed her sister down and she stepped back so the crowd could see Alex clearly. They gasped in delight since Alex looked so stunning.
The media were taking pictures and there was no doubt that they would be on the front page by morning.
"Are you ready?" Kara asked her sister
"I'm so ready."
-00-
Everyone suddenly stood up and I knew that Alex had arrived. I heard gasps sound into the air I wondered what was happening.
"Holy cow! Is that Agent Danvers?" I heard one of my agents whisper
"Oh!" I heard Maxwell Lord gasp
I finally turned around and nearly fainted. Alex was there walking towards me. She was wearing red not white. I spotted the crest immediately I felt a few small tears in my eyes. Then I saw the crown and I really did stagger. I was wondering how in the wide universe had I gotten Alex. She was beautiful.
Our eyes locked and she was smiling so brightly. She was an angel. She finally reached me and grinned at my face.
"Impressed J'onn." She whispered
"Alex…" Was all I could mutter staring at her
Then the President stood up and started the ceremony. Then she finally came to the important part, somewhere in all those sacred words Alex had grabbed my hand.
"Do you J'onn J'onzz of Mars take Alexandra Jane Danvers as your wife through better or worse?"
"I do." I didn't hesitate
"And you Alexandra Danvers take J'onn J'onzz as you husband for better or worse?"
My heart missed a beat. This was the time.
"I do."
"Now you can say your vows."
I started I spoke in my langue only Alex would understand these words but she was the only one who had to. She started to cry when I mentioned her father and I think Kara and Eliza had an idea what I was talking about when I said Jeremiah's name. I stopped, for I had finished.
Then Alex spoke up. "J'onn I never thought that when you recruited me that I would find so much more than a job. I found a life a way to protect Kara. But I found you. The Martian whom my father died to save and the moment he made that decision he gave me the one thing that now means so much to me. You." She paused looking only at me
"I love you J'onn J'onzz. I will never abandon you, I will always be there by your side. Like I have been since the first day you found me. I would give my life for yours without regret. I want to be yours for eternity."
"I will never leave you." And with that she finished
Lucy brought up the rings and I put it onto Alex's finger. And we kissed. Everyone erupted into cheers. We walked down from the front and everyone came up to congratulate us. And nobody shielded away from the fact that I was eight foot tall and green.
"Oh." Eliza came up and gave me a huge hug
I was a bit startled and I saw Alex laughing at my reaction. I grinned. For everything I cared for everything that I thought that I had lost.
Was here standing here in front of me.
