The Freak and The Outsider

*This will be in the POV of Eddie. This will be the final part of the story. So, sit back. Relax, grab a box of tissues or a towel and enjoy.*

The morning of the wedding came quicker than I thought it would. But this women is the one I've dreamed of for years. Damn, I love her so much.

As I stand in the mirror looking at myself, I realize that it's time to grow up. I get into Mary's car and head to the barber shop.

"What can I do for you my friend?"

"I'm getting married today. Can you help me clean this up?" I ask the nice gentleman behind the counter.

"Sure. Take a seat in that first chair. I'll help you in a second." He replied.

I take a seat in the chair, facing a mirror. I start looking at the other men in the shop, noticing how short their was. I swallowed my pride and take a deep breath in.

"How short do you want to go dude?" He asks as he wraps a drape around your neck.

"Just do what you think will look good for a women who deserves the world." I reply.

I closed my eyes as he begins, trying to clam myself down. I had spent so long growing it out. I really hope she loves me still after.

"All done, man." He spins me to face the mirror.

"Whoa. I look completely different now. Thanks, man." I shake his hand and pay him for the amazing work he did.

I begin my drive to the church, my tuxedo hanging in the backseat. I feel nervous, and sick to my stomach during the drive. When I arrive, the nice lady at the front greets me.

"You must be Edward. I'm Patty, I'll take you to the grooms room so you can get ready." Patty shakes my hand and guides me to a room. She closes the door behind her so I can change.

"Damn it." Tying a tie is something I was never taught so trying to do it alone wasn't easy. Patty must have overheard because she knocked on the door.

"Mr. Munson? Do you need any help?" She asks.

"If you don't mind, I'd really appreciate it." She smiles and comes over to help me.

"I remember when my son was in this room marrying the girl of his dreams. He was so nervous." She began laughing. "There! You look so good! She's on lucky girl." She smiles as I check myself in the mirror.

The bells outside of the church begin ringing.

"Almost time." I say to myself.

Guest from Mary's side of the family starting coming into the church that was decorated in white and yellow roses and daisies. A white runner going down the center of the aisle. Mary's mom and family really went all out for us.

I shake everyone's hands as they come in, even if I don't know them personally. I thank them for coming. Jeff, Gareth, Mike, Dustin, and Lucas came together. I hugged them, fighting back tears. It had been months since I've seen them last.

"Thank you so much for coming guys. This means a lot to me."

"Yeah, no problem, man." Henderson said. That kid was like my own.

I made my way up the aisle to the alter. That pastor was already there. The nervous got worse when the organ starting playing the song that I knew she was going to start walking down any second. I hear the congregation stand as the doors open. I turn to see the most beautiful bride, heading my way. My Bride.

I take her hand from her fathers, and I can't stop looking at her. It took me back to the first day I ever met her. She looked like a little deer, lost in the woods, not knowing that Jason was in the way. When her books fell, something came over to go and help her. When we made eye contact, and I saw those light blue eyes I knew I had to have her.
