-"What are you saying, Wilhemina?"-Cordelia asks.

-"I don't know. I wanted to marry her as soon as possible because I grew to love her so much but... I feel like I'm taking away her freedom or something? She is still really young. Maybe she needs someone her age... Someone who doesn't need five different types of pills to keep them going every day. You know? I'm so insecure and scared she will fall for somebody younger. I love her Cordelia, but every time she interacts with a girl that's younger and prettier than me, my heart starts pounding in my chest faster and faster from fear."

-"First of all, Wilhemina, we are the same age, so are you saying we're old? Second of all, (y/n) loves you so much and her love won't depend on your age, looks or even your disability. Everybody notices how she looks at you."

-"But out of everybody, she chose me?"

-"Not everybody is like you, okay. Now get yourself together because (y/n) loves you and you love her."

Y/n and Elizabeth;

-"Not again with the bullshit (y/n)..."

-"What if Wilhemina wants someone more... wise? I can't even-"

-"Please, (y/n) I can't with you anymore."

-"I'm serious! She seems so smart and independent. Maybe I'm just not a good pair for her. I'm dumb, I can't cook, I don't have a job... All I do is laze around while she works. What if I start to annoy her? What if-"

-"(Y/n) stop it! I don't even wanna listen to this. If somebody really loves you it's Wilhemina. You aren't annoying her and she won't get bored of you. I know it."

—In Elizabeth's mind—

(Y/n) couldn't give up on their relationship now. Some memories of (y/n)'s suffering in the outpost, whilst she was away from Wilhemina never left my bones. Like salt in the sea, they became a part of me and I promised to myself; if it's in my ability to make her happier in any way, I'll do it. I'll help her. She doesn't even know how much she'd suffered, but I know, and that's more than enough.

Elizabeth and I hear a knock on the door;

-"Wilhemina's ready!"-Cordelia says before the closed door.

-"(Y/n) was just ready!"-Elizabeth replies to Cordelia-"Hey, (y/n), close your eyes!"

-"What's happening?"

-"You'll see. Just trust me."

-Elizabeth grabbed your hand and walked you whilst your eyes were closed the whole time. You suddenly felt somebody's back pressed against yours, then you smelled Wilhemina's perfume as she held your hand.

-"Open your eyes!"-Cordelia and Elizabeth say at the same time.

We both open our eyes and turn around. I see how beautiful Wilhemina is and I gasp. She puts her shaky hand over her mouth as her eyes fill with tears, happy tears. She pulls you in for a kiss and hugs you after. It was just then that I realized we were standing before a crowd of girls dressed in purple, in joy because of our kiss.

-"Woohoo!"-a blonde haired girl (Madison) with sunglasses yells, while her friend (Zoe) is waiting for a polaroid picture she took of us to fully show.

It wasn't a wedding like you know it, because we weren't a typical couple. Same sex and of different religions... So, Elizabeth and Cordelia 'married' the two of us. It was roleplay, but enough to make us happy.

-"Do you, (y/n) (y/l/n), take Wilhemina to be your wife?"-Elizabeth says in a funny tone.
-"Yes, I do."-I say with confidence.

"And do you, Wilhemina Venable, take (y/n) to be your wife?"-Cordelia asks.

-"Of course!"-Wilhemina says with no hesitation.

Mallory, with a beautiful flower headband in her hair, walks up to the two of you and opens a little purplish ring box. You take the ring and get down on one knee before Wilhemina, knowing she couldn't be the one to do it because of her back. You hold the ring while smiling at Mina. A tear falls down Wilhemina's cheek before extending her hand so you could put the ring around her finger.

You get up and Cordelia and Elizabeth look at one another before saying at the same time;

-"You may kiss the bride!"-you and Wilhemina pull in for a kiss, again. Her lips tasted sweeter than ever. All the girls from the academy started screaming and cheering for you, together with Cordelia and Elizabeth.

When you finally pull away, Madison opens a bottle of champagne and it sprays all over you and Wilhemina-"Let's party now!"-Madison yells before Elizabeth grabbed your and Wilhemina's hand;-"Come on!"

With Wilhemina, I was the happiest girl in the world.
