11 years later.

" You're a lucky man." I tell Vince.
Gina laughs. I didn't expect to ever see her in a wedding dress like this.
The dress sticks to her hourglass body, it's beautiful.
Then I turn to Seth. " Your brother's wedding was the best day of life. I hope to equally love this one."
Claire can't control her laugher. " It sure was."
Well this is a double wedding so I'd say I want double the happiness I had that day but I can't be happier then I am right now.

I look for Ember, my ex girlfriend.
I can't seem to find her, I spot Stephen, Sean and Stephen's wife Cassie.

" Hey Sean, have you seen my wife?" I ask Sean, he points at her.
She's wearing a light pink gown that just sticks to her perfect pear body.
She's talking to
I think that's Helen.
" Hey Ember" I greet her, and place my hand around her waist.
" Oh Trevor you haven't changed." Yeah, I can confirm it's Helen.
" This is my husband, David." She pulls her husband closer. He's holding a baby.
" Isn't he a cutie pie." Ember talks in her baby accent and spreads her arms, indirectly asking to hold the baby.

" What's his name?" I ask playing with the baby's nose, making her giggle.
" Daria."
" Hi Daria." Ember greets the baby in her baby accent. She gets as excited with babies as Gina does.

" Mom, whose baby are you holding?" A pitched voice says behind.
" This is your daughter?" Helen is thrilled.

" Meet Tracy." Ember says while I place my hand on Tracy's back.
" Hi Tracy how old are you?" Helen asks.
Tracy shows her four fingers.
" She's four and she seems just as smart as her parents."
Ember really did a good job raising her.

David looks at the enormous amount of chocolate cake Tracy has on her plate.
" Be careful with her Ember, her stomach pooch is starting to show."He says.
" So fucking what? Food is meant to be enjoyed. Who are you to tell her?" Ember snaps at David, making me proud.

Tracy asks Ember to bend so she can feed her a spoonful of chocolate cake.
Ember doesn't hesitate and bends happily and eats it happier.
And then Tracy asks me to bend, so I pick her up and she puts a spoon of chocolate cake inside of my mouth.

I promise you I thought I could not be happier, with my wife being the happiest and If she is, I definitely am.
And now we have the prettiest daughter.

She tells me
" I think I love her more than I love you."
I tell her " I don't mind, she's a piece of me."

I wonder what happened with Helen and Kevin and that's where I see him.
I point at Kevin. Ember gives him a pity look.
He notices us watching, He waves.
He isn't accompanied by anyone, His beard tells me his life isn't figured out.
" Welp that's what happens when you call my wife a slut." I say.
Tracy looks at me.

" Dad, what's a slut?"
Helen laughs at Tracy's question. Ember makes a face while she gives Daria back to Helen.
Ember gestures Tracy on her arms so I pass Tracy to her, my phone falls down.

Helen picks it up to look polite.
Her eyebrows raise at my wallpaper.
Ember suspects something and grabs the phone from her hand.

Ember's eye brows raise as well.
" That's you!" Tracy exclaims at Ember.
It's a photo of Ember I took that day during the workshop.
I shake my head- " No Tracy, That's My Sun."

Ember laughs and so does Tracy as if I said something dumb. " How is she your sun?" Tracy asks.
Helen giggles whispering " Cause she's hot."

I shake my head.

" No because she thanks me as if I'm doing her favours but really loving her is the reason I shine.
And I wanna shine on her the way she's makes me shine. You know like I'm her moon, because she shines on me. It's the reason I shine in the world and she's my world."

All four of them make confused faces. Now that I think of it, what I said sounded better in my head.
David barfs.

I nervously chuckle.

" I meant that I'm happy she knows We Can have so much more."
