If You Love Her

"Oh god." Kate breathed out, looking at her dress in Jane's mirror. "She's going to hate it." She whispered. Today was the day she was marrying Lucy and she was extremely nervous.

"Kate, breathe, she won't hate it." Jane said, taking Kate's hands into her own.

The blonde swallowed thickly and looked at her best friend. "Are you sure?" She asked quietly.

"I'm positive." Jane assured the blonde.

Kate took a deep breath and looked back at herself in the mirror. "I didn't think I would be so nervous." She whispered.

"Once you see her, your nerves will melt away." Jane said softly, a gentle smile on her lips.

"I just, I don't want to mess this up." Kate breathed out, looking over at Jane. "I don't know if I'd survive."

"You won't mess it up." Jane said firmly.

The blonde cleared her throat and moved to sit down so Willow and Jane could finish her hair and makeup.

Willow, as usual, was quite and simply observed the interaction between Jane and Kate.

Once she was fully ready, Kate took a deep breath and looked up at Jane. "Can you check on, Luce?"

Jane nodded and headed for the door.

Kate took a deep breath and closed her eyes. She was freaking out on the inside.

Willow placed a comforting hand on Kate's shoulder and squeezed gently.

"I wish Noah was here." Kate whispered quietly.

Willow leaned down and wrapped her arms loosely around Kate's shoulders from behind in an attempt to comfort her.

The blonde fought back tears as she leaned against Willow. "He would've liked you."

Willow only gave a quiet shrug of her shoulders.

"You remind me of him, in a way." Kate whispered softly, looking down.

"How so?" Willow asked sheepishly.

The blonde smiled sadly and looked up at Willow. "He was reserved, but with me he was fun."

"I'm not fun." Willow said immediately. "I'm the most boring person on the planet."

Kate instantly shook her head. "When we hang out, you're fun."

"No I'm not." Willow said stubbornly, pulling back.

Frowning softly, Kate looked down again.

Willow sighed softly and moved to stand beside Kate, leaning back against the vanity.

A few minutes later, Jane reappeared in the room.

Willow looked up. "Everything okay?"

"Lucy is also nervous and has asked multiple times if the wedding has started." Jane said calmly.

"At least she hasn't run away." Willow said half heartedly.

Kate instantly looked up. "Do you think she'd run?" She asked worriedly.

Willow shook her head. "I never doubted her for a second."

The blonde slowly relaxed before her eyes widened. "I forgot to write my vows!"

"You've got time." Willow said.

Kate was beginning to panic and only Lucy could calm her down when she did.

Jane placed her hand on Kate's back. "Breathe."

The blonde gasped slightly to try and catch her breath.
