"Hey guys, hope you're all having a wonderful time" Lacey smiled to all the guests who were seated at their tables. "Lauren asked me for one wedding present, and that was that I would sing for her on two occasions during the day, and that was as she walked down the isle, to a song that she has loved since she accepted Declan's request" Lacey giggled, as Declan raised his hands above his head and shook them, almost as if he was proud of the moment he asked her, and everything that followed. "And then she asked me if I would sing a song for their first dance as man and wife, and she drove a hard bargain to be able to say no to" Lacey smiled, as Lauren nodded her head smiling. "So, I hope you all don't mind in raising your glasses once again to be insanely adorable, most beautiful couple, Mr and Mrs Rice" Lacey cheered, as the guests all clapped and cheered, as the music started and Declan and Lauren began to dance slowly around the room, talking between themselves, smiling at each other, as they danced to Lacey's voice.

I don't know how you do what you do, Im so in love with you, it just keeps getting better, I want to spend the rest of my life with you by my side, forever and ever, every little thing that you do, baby I'm amazed by you

The guests were all quiet, taking photos of the couple dancing, smiling at them and talking about how beautiful they looked, as Lacey's eyes left Lauren and Declan and glanced around the room, taking in Jack and Sasha who were cuddled into each other, smiling at each other, Sasha laughing at something Jack was whispering down her ear, as Ben and Ellie stood next to them, smiling at Lauren and Declan, Ellie holding a hand to her face to try and contain the smile that was on her face, Mason stood with Callum and Dani, as Chloe approached them, Lacey smiling briefly at the fact that Chloe wouldn't know that Callum was her brother, and whatever was spoken about would get back to her.

The smell of your skin, the taste of your kiss, the way you whisper in the dark, your hair all around me, baby you surround me, touch every place in my heart

But Lacey couldn't help but feel her heart drop when Chloe wrapped her arms around Mason, bringing him in for a hug, as Dani looked over at him, hitting Callum on the shoulder, making him look, as Callum looked to Jack, who was already walking over to the group of them.
Lacey pulled her eyes away from them, focusing on the last chorus, wanting to impress the guests, wanting to prove that she wasn't just a washed out singer who's career was over, that she deserved the life she was being given, she had worked just as hard for it as anyone else had.
"Thank you" Lacey whispered into the microphone, as the guests all clapped. Lauren walking over to Lacey and pulling her into a hug. "Thank you for making this day perfect, I don't know what I did to deserve you as a friend, or a sister, we're sisters at heart" Lauren beamed, as she held Lacey tighter. "Thank you for letting me be here" Lacey smiled, as Lauren shook her head. "What do you mean?" Lauren laughed, as she pulled away and looked at Lacey, concern clouding her face. "Are you okay?" Lauren gushed, as Lacey nodded her head. "It's just if Chloe and Mason were together you probably wouldn't have invited me" Lacey laughed, as Lauren shook her head. "I'd of invited you before I invited either of them, I said this to Declan when you guys broke up, you was always coming Lace, like you once said at karaoke, you earned your fucking place here" Lauren muttered, as she pulled Lacey in for another hug. "Don't ever doubt my love for you" Lauren mumbled. "And we're taking shots in fifteen" Lauren giggled, as Declan pulled Lauren into him. "I can one hundred percent confirm that Mason has eyes for you, and you only" Declan smiled. "I believe that in a few years this will be you two" Declan smiled. "Now excuse me, I want five minutes alone with my wife" Declan smirked. "Oh do you now?" Lauren giggled, as Declan pulled her to the corner of the room, as Lacey shook her head smiling, walking over to her group of friends, but not before some arms wrapped around her waist, pulling her into them, and she would of known the smell of aftershave from a mile off. "Hello to you too" Lacey chuckled, as Mason shook his head, his eyes scanning over her face, as he held her cheek. "Are you okay?" Mason whispered, as Lacey nodded her head. "Im fine, why?" Lacey giggled, as Mason shook his head, kissing the top of her head. "I just wanted to check with some of the people who are here and stuff" Mason mumbled. "No, I'm fine, but do you mind going and getting me a lemonade?" Lacey smiled, fluttering her eyelashes at him, as he nodded his head, pulling her in for a kiss, before leaving her to walk to her friends. "Can I steal these two for a minute" Lacey smiled, as she wrapped her arms around Sasha and Ellie, Jack nodding his head, as the three girls left the room giggling.
"What's up?" Sasha whispered, as the girls stood in the reception area. "So, Chloe made a comment that I look pregnant" Lacey mumbled, as Ellie rolled her eyes. "There's nothing to you, she needs to be quiet else I'll put her in her place" Ellie mumbled, as she pulled the hair tie from her wrist and placed her hair up. "El, you're pregnant and I can fight my own battles, but I'm not ruining Lauren and Decs night" Lacey whispered. "But I am a week late" she muttered, forcing a smile.
"Right, cmon then" Sasha smiled. "To the toilets we go" Sasha clapped, as Lacey rolled her eyes, but nodded her head, she needed to find out now.
