3 Hours Later
-Jasey's POV*
I left Josh to mingle with some of the boys and went to change. I went up to my hotel room and put on a shorter dress. One that's just about my knees. I kept my hair and makeup the same. It wouldn't be right to mess any of that up after all the work Ash and Chris went through. I took a quick look at myself in the mirror and left.

"There you are!" Josh said happily as I walked towards him. I hugged him lightly and sat down at the table. Someone I don't exactly know began the speeches.
I picked at the fruit that was on a platter in the middle of the table. I looked up to see Chris standing up at the microphone.
"Okay. So, I know I'm a singer/screamer in a band and all, but I'm for the first time in awhile, nervous as I stand up here. But, I do have some very kind words to say to the married couple." He began, we all clapped and smiled.
"For a few years now I have known both Josh and Jasey. Josh is the most amazing keyboard player ever. I've never heard anyone play better than him. And Jasey, she's the best at almost anything she does. Josh is still just a bit better than her at the keyboard." He stated, a few laughs spread around us.
"Anyways. Jasey has become such an amazing person. More confident in herself every day that she spent with us. All of us guys, besides Josh obviously, see her as our family. Our sister. Which means, Josh, you better be good to her like you have been. Or all of us guys are gonna rip you a new one. But besides that, I love you guys and wish you both the best in you marriage. Don't forget about us when you're on your super cool honeymoon trip that no one but Josh knows about and won't tell anyone. I love you guys." He finishes and everyone claps and cheers for him. I stood up and hugged him lightly as well as kissing his cheek.
"We love you too, Chris." I said and went up to the stage.
"I promised a speech to Josh the other night specially for him since a lot of you got your speeches already. So, I'm gonna begin the speech." I began. I took a deep breath and started up again.
"It was quite a few years ago that I sat in my room at Tony's house. Wanting to end my life. I edited an entire album by Motionless In White to only play the keyboard parts. Because I found the way that you played, calmed me down. Or watching videos with you in them and you talked or were just simply in them. You were the only person that I cared to talk to or see. And then my phone rang. Somehow, someone got a hold of you. Gave you my number and said to call me. I didn't know the number that popped up on my screen. But something in my head was telling me to answer. So I did. And that's when I fell to the floor in a puddle of tears. Hearing your voice. On my phone. I was freaking out a bit. But I still wanted to end my life. You talked me out of it. You told me "Just hold on, okay? I know you can do this. I'm here. I may not be physically there, but I'm here. Do not let go. You hold on. Think of when we meet for the first time. Because it will happen. I will make sure of it. I will track you down with the help from a few people and I will find you." Those words from you are what kept me from killing myself that night. I held on to hope that we would meet. And within a few years, we did. With the help from Tony, Jaime, Alex, Jack, and all of 5 Seconds Of Summer, I lived long enough to get to meet you. And after awhile of us finally talking, I felt like I had more reason to be alive. I had to prove that I was worthy of being alive for you. Being by your side for all these years now has made me a person that I never was. A person that I've come to love. But she doesn't exist unless you're a part of her. It's because of you, and everyone else that I am this person now. So thank you. For making me a better person. We are one. Forever ever after, we are one. All of us. I love you more than words can express, Josh. And I couldn't be more happy to have this ring on my finger that signifies our love to each other." I finally finished the speech and smiled at everyone, resting my eyes on Josh once I finished overlooking the crowd. He's crying. Happy tears. But he's crying. He got up from his chair and began walking towards me, our bodies colliding once we meet. His arms tightly around me.
"I am more than proud of you for staying alive. You held on to hope. Most people wouldn't be able to hold on for so long, but for my own sake, I'm so glad that you did. Everyone is proud of you. Everyone is so happy to be a part of your amazing life. Especially me. I love you, Jasey." He said, gently kissing me. Everyone clapping and cheering for us. Chris in the back yelling about us getting a room. I love these people. All of them are my family. Each and every one of them. I would trade this life for anything in the world. This life is who I am now. The one that tours with her husband and bestfriends. The one that will do free work for them just because she loves them. That's the life I'm in. And I'm completely on board. I'm completely in love with this life. Nothing in the world will ever change that.

The end.
