The Kissing Booth Why Now?

136. HAPPILY EVER AFTER 2

EPOV

After June left my mom helped make sure my dress was perfect before we walked out to the alcove.  I smiled at her and my dad "I am so glad I have you both here today."  I soon see all the guys open the back doors and come in straightening their ties and coats.  I smiled at them "you all ready?"  They nodded got into position next to their girl and walked them in.   Lee being Lee looked at me "are you sure you want to marry that knucklehead.  If not I have my car ready and we can run."  I giggled "yes I am sure.  I can't believe you would think otherwise."  "I needed to make you smile.  You looked ready to puke."  We all laughed and he spun around when it was his turn to walk Patrice into the worship hall.  I take a couple of deep breaths as I hear the beginning strains of the wedding march.

I smile at my parents as they grab my arms leading me into the church.  This was one of the new traditions I wanted.  My dad was all too happy to have both of them walking me in since my mom had missed so much of my life growing up.  When the doors opened up for the final time before the ceremony I looked straight ahead and found Noah.  He looked so handsome in his tux that I felt my breath catch.  I could tell by the grin that spread on his face he found me beautiful as he has said he always does.  

The walk up to my future husband felt like it took forever but when my father placed my hand in his I knew this was the beginning of the rest of our lives.

Standing there waiting for my girl by myself was nerve-racking.  My parents had left my side and were sitting in the front.  The guys had snuck out the side door and took off so they could walk their girls into the main part of the church.  I stood there waiting for my bride with my heart hammering in my chest.  As I looked out at the sea of people I could not believe that there were some girls checking me out and one even winked at me.  I just shook my head and stared at the doors waiting for my Shelly to appear.  I had to wait through the whole wedding party before I could finally see Shelly and it was driving me insane.  I guess my face said it all because when Lee made it beside me he smirked "I tried to get her to run but she was having none of that."  I glared at him and realized he must have told Shelly that to get her to relax.  "I am so glad."

When the wedding march began and the doors opened up there stood my bride.  She looked like an angel.  I sucked in my breath and I heard Carl "told you my cuz would lose it when he saw her."  I didn't care what he said my eyes were trained on the most beautiful girl in the room.  I watched her walk painstakingly slow to me being led by Mary and Max.  When we talked about who was going to walk her in I mentioned this new custom since I know she wants her mom to be a major part of all the important events in her life now that we have her back.  My girl didn't disappoint when she jumped at the chance.

When Max finally placed her hand in mine and of course reminded me to take care of her or he and my father would make him pay I glanced at my dad and he smirked nodding his head.  I could not believe those two worked it out to threaten me at the altar.

I should have known my dad would threaten Noah once we made it to the altar.  I could not believe that Mathew was in on it.  The smirk and nod he gave Noah almost had me laughing.  Although the rest of the party couldn't help but chuckle.  Since Noah had pretty much already embarrassed himself at prom declaring his love for me we decided on the traditional vows.  Repeating everything the priest asked us to neither one of us could look anywhere else but each other.  Lee had to nudge Noah to get him to take the ring and everyone chuckled.  After he slid the ring on my finger I turned to Patrice and grabbed the ring I would place on Noah's and Patrice chuckled "dang I wanted to nudge you too."  Of course, we all chuckled.  Sliding the ring on Noah's finger I could see him getting ready to pounce.  As soon as the priest said you may now kiss the bride Noah had me in his arms kissing the life out of me.  The best part was Lee actually kept his trap shut.

The rest of the night went magical.  The speeches that were given had me crying especially when Lee said he couldn't be happier with me being married to Noah since he knew I would always be safe.  The throwing of the bouquet went great and one of Noah's cousins (Ally) had caught it.  The funny thing was she ended up using it to hit this girl that tried to get Noah to go to a broom closet with her.  I was going to attack the girl but watching Ally beat her with the bouquet was hilarious.  Turns out she is Ally's ex-best friend.  Yep,  Ally told her to take a hike when the girl said that all she wanted was to get lucky.  That why should she care about her sleeping with Noah when she didn't care that she slept with her fiancee."  Let's just say it took me, Mathew, my dad hell all the guys to hold Noah back when Ally's fiancee said "damn I told you not to tell her.  I don't care that your pregnant I don't even believe that baby is mine."  Let's just say he was thrown out along with the girl. 

Let's just say she didn't end up alone for long.  Her best friend's brother was madly in love with her and when he found out he made his move.  They ended up getting married a year before I finished law school.    Tuppen ended up catching the garter and he so had to go there sniffing it "damn Elle you smell great."  Let's just say Lucinda smacked him a good one.  

We ended up going to Paris for our honeymoon Noah wasn't thrilled I was using the money left to me by Justin but I insisted that we had more than we could ever use.  Plus once we started school who knew when we would ever have time for another long vacation.  I was so right on that front.  Every break we had we all made sure to come home from school and spend our time with the family.  Noah did back off about having children till I finished my undergrad years and was no longer eligible to play soccer.  He did drive me crazy after that and I did not give in to him.  It was not until my last semester of Law School did I decide that it was now time.  Well, actually halfway through my last semester.  I really did not want to be a beached whale for the whole semester.  I didn't tell Noah so when the rents came into town for my law school graduation at the family dinner I let them all know I was pregnant.

"So, you see kids that is how we all ended up together and we were reunited with Grandma Mary."  I watched the kids run out and couldn't help but laugh at our brood.  Noah and I ended up with eight kids.  We had agreed that eight was more than enough.  Three boys and five girls.  While Lee had nine.  He just had to outdo Noah.  Well, so he thinks.  Turns out I am the .01% that can get pregnant after having my tubes tied and am now pregnant with twins both boys.  Lord help me now.

I HOPE YOU ALL HAVE ENJOYED THIS VERSION OF THE KISSING BOOTH.  I LOVE YOU ALL.
