"Will you tell the truth so I don't have to lie?"

"Alright, with the power vested in me- I now pronounce you... man and wife." The priest said. "You may now kiss the bride."

John smiled brightly. The biggest smile id ever seen across his face. I was so very happy for him. He went from a no good partner to a happy husband.

They leaned in for a kiss causing us to cheer and clap. What a beautiful couple they made.

I smiled over at Sadie who clapped softly. Her hair was up in a bun and she wore a blouse with a skirt.

As for me, I wore a black vest over a white dress shirt and my hair in two short braids.

My arm was in a sling and cast. This time I actually did go to the doctor for it. He said something about being more careful, but I didn't really care.

All I cared about was Sadie's stab wound. I tried my hardest to care for her properly. She would always tell me that I was being dramatic, but I didn't care.

After the ceremony, Sadie and I approached Abigail.

"Congratulations." I gave Abigail a hug (only wrapping my good arm around her). "I actually got you a wedding gift." I pulled away and reached into my pockets. I pulled out a gold bracelet and Abigail gasped. "Oh my, Rosa." She took it. "It's lovely."

"I saw it and immediately thought of you." I lied and she smiled. "Aw, well, thank you." Abigail gave me another hug. "You've been a great friend all these years."

"You've been amazing too." I pulled away with a smile. "I've always looked up to you, Abigail." I didn't lie this time.

"You're too sweet." Abigail smiled looking back at John. "I'm gonna go stop him from messing up that tux."

"Of course." I watched as she walked away.

"When'd you buy that?" Sadie asked and I whispered to her. "I didn't. I stole it off an old lady while in line at the bank."

Sadie laughed loudly and I shushed her. "Stop." I laughed a little too.

"You are too much for me, gunslinger." Sadie laughed and I chuckled. "Funniest part is, it was meant for you."

Sadie stopped laughing and I gave her a look. "Did- Did you still want it?"

"Yeah, I still wanted it." Sadie said and I scratched my neck a little nervous like. "I could buy you one."

Sadie began walking and I followed. "I mean, it'll mean more too cause i'm actually buying it." I talked to her. "Besides that was a plain old bracelet. I could get you one way better."

Sadie stopped walking, turned around, then laughed in my face. "I'm joking with you." She gave me a kiss. "But I still want a bracelet."

"I'll get it for you." I smiled as she walked away.

Sometime after eating cake, I took a seat by the house and Jack joined me. He read me his new book. I just thought Jack was the sweetest boy. He read, stuttering every once in a while. "He looked up at the mighty bear in para- paralyzing fear." Jack read.

"You reading, boy?" John suddenly approached us and Jack nodded. "Yes, sir."

"Oh, come on." John smiled. "We're celebrating. Get your nose outta that book and be a kid."

"Yes, sir." Jack closed the book and I smiled over at him. "You tell me how it ends once you finish."

Jack smiled. "Of course, Aunt Rosa." He walked away.
