My worries about something going wrong came true. Laura didn't drop off Eva and Diego at Gabby's place "YN you need to calm down" "What if she's ran off with the kids again because she doesn't like me?" "If she's done that then Antonio, Jay and everyone else at intelligence will find them, right Kim?" "Right" "Does Antonio know?" "Yes. He's trying to get ahold of Laura now" Gabby responds guiding me to the chair in the dressing room "I knew something was going to go wrong" I sigh "Everything's going to be ok" Gabby rubs my arms "Maybe they're just running late" Sylvie shrugs while bouncing Lucas in her arms "An hour late?" I raise my eyebrows "Mags hand me my phone" "And what do you plan on doing?" She asks handing it over "I'm checking to see if there's been any accidents on the roads" going on to google I find that no accidents have been reported "if there was something wrong why hasn't Laura rang us? Or why hasn't Eva or Diego rang?" There's a knock on the door "You decent?" I hear Will "Yeah come on in" Gabby calls. In walks Will and Jay "Have you heard anything?" "No. I'm going to go round to Laura's, see if they're home" "Is that a good idea Jay? I'll go, I'm their aunt" "Ok" Jay gives in knowing Gabby going is a better idea "Ring me if they turn up. I'll phone you if they're not...." "We're here we're here" Eva comes barrelling into the room "Eva!" I stand up and run over to her "where on earth were you? Will go let Antoni know they're here" Will nods his head and both Jay and Will leave the room. In walks a sheepish Laura "I'm so sorry YN, we were on our way and the car broke down. I rang for someone to come and help, but my phone died so I couldn't phone you guys, I stupidly told Diego and Eva to leave their phones at home because I didn't think you'd want them to ring during the wedding" "Ok now YN will you stop stressing out" Kim asks "Yes, well not not until we've both said I do. I could still be left at the alter" I say freaking out "Hey" Laura shouts "Antonio loves you and you love him. There's no way he's leaving you at the alter. Now do as you've been told and stop stressing" I give Laura a little smile "Right I'm off" "Wait. Stay. I mean that's if you want" "Thanks, but seeing my ex husband remarry isn't something I would like to see" "Then at least come to the after party. Get as drunk as you like" "I'll think about it" Laura smiles then leaves.
Thankfully the wedding goes without a hitch. Will walked me down the aisle while Jay had Lucas. Antonio and I have our first dance, then he dances with Eva while I dance with Diego. Then what would have been the father daughter dance, I take turns dancing with Jay and Will "Mrs Dawson, now that's going to take some getting use to" Betty one of my coworkers says walking up to me with a drink in hand "I think it's going to be weirder for me" I chuckle "Congratulations YN" "Thank you Betty" I notice Laura walking over to the bar looking a little lost "excuse me" I say leaving Betty's side "Laura, you came" "Yeah, I thought I'd at least show my face" "Well thank you for coming. Look I know we've not really got on in the past, but I'd like to try and get on, for the kids sake" "I'm just worried" "I understand. Your their mom" I give a little shrug and smile "you want to make sure that I'm not just going to abandon them, or ignore them or I guess be the 'evil stepmom' but like I've said from day one, Im here for the long hall and I'm not here to replace you" "I know. I guess some of it was a little bit of jealousy. Antonio's moved on and I haven't" "Well... if you want Antonio and I could take the kids and you could take your pick of the single guys around here" Laura chuckles "Thanks but no thanks, I can't let you take Diego and Eva for the night, not your wedding night" "We already have Lucas what's two more" "Are you sure?" Nathan another one of my coworkers makes his way over to us "Congratulations YN" "Thank you Nathan. Laura, I'm positive, I'll let Antonio know" I then lean into her and whisper "by the way Nathan's single" I nudge her a little and leave her to find my now husband. Husband... a word I didn't think would ever have to say or think about.
