Burn It Down

Chapter 21

"I don't need your help mom." I said.

"Yes you do. We need a different dress Valerie." She said.

"Mom, this is my wedding. Either go with it or stay out of it." I said.

"Okay, fine." She said, going to get her dress on.

I didn't want her to ruin this. I get that she hated Zacky but this was my happiness, not hers. I didn't have a good friend to help me with any of this anyway.

"Hi, miss. Do you need help?" A girl asked me.

She had long brown hair, she looked really pretty.

"Oh, I just need to zip up this damn dress, could you help?" I asked.

"Of course. Also, I'm Brittney, I'm Zachary's sister." She said.

"It's nice to meet you." I said, smiling.

She zipped up my dress, smiling.

"Let's go get you get your hair and makeup done. Follow me." She said.

I followed her to the salon by the church, it was small.

"Well hello Ms. Sanders! Have a seat." A lady said.

I sat down as she did my hair and makeup. She did really good.

"It's time to go ladies." Brian said.

I nodded, going back to the dressing room to get my heels on. I wanted Matt to walk me down since he was my dad. First was Brittney and Johnny, they'd look cute together. Next was Brian and Michelle, Michelle looked stunning and it made me feel gross on my own wedding day. Same with Brittney. She was definitely Zacky's sister. Last was Val walking with Jimmy, she had a pissed off look. Last came me and Matt, I saw Zacky looking so handsome, he even did his hair. He never did that. I walked up as he grabbed my hand and Matt gave me a kiss on the cheek.

"Hi." Zacky whispered.

"Hi." I whispered back, smiling.

"We gather here today for Valerie Lee Ann Sanders and Zachary James Baker." The pastor said.

Everyone clapped.

"First we will read the vows. This one is from Valerie. It reads: Zacky, when I first met you I really wanted to get to know you because you seemed so sweet and I have had a huge crush on you since I got into Avenged Sevenfold. I finally have you, and I couldn't be more grateful to have you. Marrying you. Having a life with you. I love you." He said.

Zacky started crying a little bit, cutie.

"This one is from Zacky: Valerie, every time we spend together I just think "damn she's hot". Kidding, well not kidding but you get my point. You have made me feel so much happier than I've ever been and you are the most perfect girl I've ever seen. I could look at you for hours and not get bored. You're the type of person that everyone could just adore. I love you Valerie. And I will continue to love you even if this marriage turns upside down, we'll figure out a way to turn it up." He said.

I cried like a baby.

"Now, Zachary. Do you take Valerie Sanders to be your wife to love forever?" The pastor asked.

"I sure as hell do." Zacky said.

"Valerie, do you take Zachary Bakers to be your husband to love forever?" He asked.

"I do." I said.

"Zachary, you may put the rings on and kiss your bride." He said.

Zacky put my ring on as I put on his, kissing him.

Everyone clapped and cheered.

"FUCK YEAH!" Jimmy yelled.

Everyone laughed as we made our way to a limo for the ceremony.

"I'm married." I said, smiling.

"Yeah you are." Zacky said, kissing me.

We made it to the ceremony church, it looked exactly how I planned it to look like.

"Let's get this party started!" Jimmy said.

The slow dance came on, I took Zacky to the floor and we slowed dance.

"So, do you feel good?" He asked.

"I feel more than good." I said.

"I love you, and I mean it." He said.

"I love you too." I said, smiling.

"Can I cut in?" Matt asked.

Zacky nodded as I started dancing with Matt.

"I cant believe you're married." Matt said.

"Me neither." I said.

"This is the only thing that I worried about missing." He said.

"Well, if I was still at Nick's I'd probably be forced to marry him right now." I said.

"That's why Im glad you're with Zacky, and Im glad I picked you up that day." He said.

"I love you dad." I said, kissing him on the cheek.

The night had ended perfectly, I was fucking married.
