Chapter Nineteen: Time Bomb

"Mom, dad, please shut up and act like you like each other for atleast one day! You know how much this means to me, please don't mess it up!" I told them as my bridesmaids worked on my hair. 

"You look so gorgeous, let's go ahead and take pictures!" My mom smiled and handed the camera over to Tom, who only laughed and told us all to get ready. 

We smiled and took a bunch of pictures. It was fun. 

"Dad, will you do me the honor of walking me down the aisle?" I asked him as we got inside the cute little wagon decorated in hot pink bows and red roses. 

He gave me a genuine smile and nodded, "Anything for my princess." 

"You know, at first, I didn't really like that Victor kid. But, now I see how happy he makes you, so i'm happy" my father told me. 

I laughed and rested my head on his arm. 

"Thank you," I whispered and gave him a kiss on the forehead. 

He nodded and helped me out of the wagon. I wrapped my arm around his and we began to slowly walk down the aisle. Soft, melodic music played as we walked by. Everybody stood up from their seats and stared in awe. I blushed and prayed to God that I didn't trip. And we didn't. Once we reached Vic, my dad let go of me and took his seat next to my mother. 

I smiled as I saw a butterfly flying by. Vic held my hand, and we listened. 

After saying our 'I do''s, Vic and I walked back down the aisle as the people threw pink rose petals at us. We walked through the grass, and took a romantic walk down to the venue where the wedding party was taking place at. Once we arrived, everybody else was already there. They greeted us and took pictures with us. 

After eating from the buffet of choices, the DJ began blasting out music and Vic and I went to the dancefloor to do our first wedding dance. Everybody cheered us on and I danced with Vic, as rehearsed. 

"May I steal a dance?" Mike asked Vic. 

Vic groaned in protest, but still reluctantly let me dance with his yiunger brother and also my best friend. 

"I'm happy for you too, finally Vic does something good in his life. I'm glad you two are together, I always knew this was going to happen!" Mike laughed and twirled me around the dancefloor. 

"You are so cheesy sometimes, I swear!" I laughed. 

He smiled and we traded partners once again, only this time I got my older brother as a partner. 

"Hey there, lil sis!" Steven teased. 

I smiled and rested my head on his chest. Closing my eyes, I let the rhythm of the music move me. 

"Where's Oliver? That guy owes me ten bucks!" Steven asked me. 

I laughed and shook my head, "You two are so immature!" 

Steven laughed along with me, and then finally let me dance with my father. 

"And we meet again," I laughed at my dad's joke. 

He would be the one to crack us all up at a time like this. But that's just how he is. Such a prankster. 

"You look beautiful, mija!" My mom gushed as I took a seat next to Vic, my husband. 

God, how it felt so right saying that. 

"Gracias," I thanked her and then turned towards Vic. 

We began talking, and then our families stood up and one by one, began reading out their speeches that they had prepared. 

After my father, went my mother, and then Steven. 

"First of all, you're lucky I didn't beat you up for going out with my lil' sis. She's special, so treat her like that. I'm glad she ended up with you though, you two look very happy with eachother." 

Then went Vic's dad, and his mom, and finally Mike. 

"Hey, wassup? I just wanted to say, that my best friend and my older brother are getting married" Mike made everyboy laugh. 

"Definetly did not see that one coming. Who am I kidding? Of course I did!" He joked. 

"Damn, i'm giving a speech at a wedding. Where the fuck is my life? Has anybody seen it?" He cracked us all up. 

"Anyways, back to the point. Have a bunch of kids, live happy, and congratulations! The end.. kidding! 

I remember Ari always being the one to say 'Forget Regret', and Vic always reponding with some wierd answer. They didn't reallyy get along most of the time as we grew up, but I realized that was their way of showing their love. They taught me that love comes from more than just the heart!" Mike finished his speech. 

I smiled and clapped along with everybody else. Vic hugged me and wiped away the happy tears that I didn't even realize had fallen. It was such a beautiful moment. 

Ever felt like you've literally had the best day ever and thought.. 'Is this a dream?' ? Yeah, well, that's how i'm feeling right about now. Everything's so unreal, I can't believe it. I'm marrying the guy of my dreams <3
