(Y/n)'s POV
"I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss the bride."

Cheers erupted in the small crowd as we all stood up from our chairs, clapping our hands in celebration of the union between Cal and Ahsoka Kestis.

The smile that spread across my cheeks burned with pride and I couldn't be more happy for them. They did everything Anakin and I hoped for, they explored their young love and learned early on that they were soulmates. And now I can only hope that they make it last the rest of their lives. They do have their ups and downs and are far from perfect—like all relationships, but the love they have for each other is real and runs deep.

Cal couldn't wait to ask her to marry him on her eighteenth birthday, and now just a couple weeks later, with rigorous planning - they're married.

"I can't believe they got married before we did," Anakin mumbled close to my ear as he continued clapping. We all watched the newly weds walk down the short aisle hand-in-hand with smiles so bright a sun would be unneeded here.

Row by row, the guests—which mostly consisted of clones—followed behind them. And since we were in the front row because Anakin was the one to walk Ahsoka down the aisle, we were first, "We'll get our day Ani, just be patient," I assured him as I locked my fingers with his and followed the couple out towards the reception area. It was close by since they got married in a beautiful meadow on Naboo; so the tables we set up were not too far from the flower arch they wed under. Near breathtaking waterfalls.

Anakin and I haven't been able to have the wedding that was taken away from us all those years ago. And it was my fault we hadn't taken that step yet; I felt I had too much healing and adjusting to do. It was difficult to fall back into a normal life after everything; as well as working on forgiving myself for a lot of the things I did during the short era of the Empire. I wanted to take time to focus on that, and to focus on rebuilding all of my relationships before anything else.

Which worked out as I had hoped; my friends and family forgave me, and I too forgave them for some of their actions that led up to my downfall.

Obi-Wan was the first to cry into my shoulder and plead for my forgiveness. He admitted that both he and Yoda felt guilty for agreeing to have me placed on unneeded medications; for brushing away my worries and making me think I couldn't come to them for help; and for sticking me in that mental hospital instead of believing that something deeper was happening.

So, with time and having Anakin's constant support by my side, I learned to let go of it all and move forward; no longer allowing room for hate or resentment in my heart - only love like my parents would have wanted.

And just when I started to feel ready and normal again, and I was even going to surprise Anakin with a wedding date - something else began to take up a lot of our time.

"I'm only teasing," My fiancé leaned over and kissed me on the cheek multiple times until I started to giggle and move away from the force of his lips, "Besides, we have had our hands full lately." He chuckled, and the soothing sound made my heart race.

"That we have been." I squeezed his hand tight.

Speaking of, where are my-
