"Freen," Becky started, voice filled to the brim with love and eyes shining with adoration, "My life has been one giant rollercoaster of ups and downs and highs and lows. I've done a lot of things that I'm not proud of, and I've been through more than any one person probably should in a lifetime... or a few lifetimes, I guess."

Their friends and family chuckled at the joke, and Becky smiled, letting out a watery laugh and taking Freen's hand in her own before continuing.

"I am the sum of every decision I've ever made. A lot of them were questionable at the time, or even incredibly bad, but they all brought me here to you." Becky paused, taking a deep breath and squeezing Freen's hand gently. "Freen, you are, by far, the best decision I've ever made in my entire life. When I first met you, I knew you were going to be special. I didn't know how, but I knew."

"What I didn't know at the time was just how important to me you would become. You're my home, my safe place, the person I run to. I didn't know back then that you would make me happier than I've ever been in my life, and I didn't know that you would help me find a light inside myself that I thought I'd lost forever. Now you are giving me a family that I never thought I would have." Becky gently placed her hand on Freen's belly.

A lone tear slipped down her cheek, and she smiled as Freen brought a hand up to wipe it away.

"I met you at the darkest time of my life. I was at my worst. Everyone stayed away from me. Everyone but you. You were... You made me feel things I couldn't quite fathom. So yeah, I got scared and pushed you away. I pushed you each time you took a step closer towards me. But despite everything, you still believed in me. Despite everyone and everything telling you to run the other direction, you still went towards mine. And you slowly destroyed the walls I've tried to build for years. You loved me when I couldn't even love myself, when I thought nobody could. But one day I just woke up realizing my world had changed. Whenever I'm with you, and wherever you are, I'm home. I'll always be home as long as I have you."

Becky took a deep breath, wiping at her eyes and letting out a watery laugh.

"Wow, uh, I don't really know how I'm gonna top that." Freen joked, smiling as she placed her own hand over Becky's which was on her belly. And at that moment, Freen wasn't able to stop her tears from flowing as well as Becky.

"If someone had told me years ago that this is where my life ends up, I would've laughed in their face and told them they were crazy." Freen shook her head, looking lovingly at Becky,

"The moment I met you, I knew you'd be a big part of my life. I just didn't know what kind, good or bad. I know we didn't meet at the best of occasions. And I had so much hatred towards you. I held you responsible for taking my life away. Now that I think back I don't think I ever started living before I met you. I just went along with the flow of my life, getting good grades, getting a good job, marrying my high school boyfriend. I just did what I thought everyone expected of me. But you, you were like a breath of fresh air. And I never thought I'd be standing here marrying you, the love of my life. I never thought that I would fall head over heals, madly and crazily in love with you. You occupied my mind day and night. When we're not together all I can think about is the next time we will be. When we fought, I couldn't think straight. I couldn't sleep. You became both my source of sadness and happiness, Becky. And when someone could make you the saddest and the happiest person at the same time, that's when you know it's real. That's when I knew it's worth fighting. I look into your eyes, Becky and all I see is my home. Now, at this very moment, I look back at all the questions I've had and I'm realizing I never should have doubted myself. Now I know why. All my life my heart has yearned for something I cannot name. But I realize now, that name is Becky Armstrong. And now, you're stuck with me so you better hold on tight because I'm never letting you go, Becky."

Freen smiled, bringing her hand up to cup Becky's face, rubbing her thumb gently over her cheek.

As soon as their rings had been exchanged, Becky looked up at Freen through eyes filled with tears, and there hadn't ever been a moment where they wanted to kiss each other more than they did then.

I now pronounce you wife and wife. You may now kiss the bride.

They looked into eachother's eyes with nothing but love as they leaned in.

Freen pulled Becky impossibly closer as their lips met each other's in a passionate, loving kiss, both of them trying to pour everything into it that they hadn't been able to say in their vows. Their friends and family cheered all around them, and as they pulled back briefly, smiling brightly at each other, they both thought to themselves, This is the happiest I've ever been.

Becky hears the song that starts playing.

"Dance with me?" Becky asks, offering her hand to Freen.

I met you in the dark
You lift me up
You made me feel as though
I was enough

The moment Freen touched Becky's hand, her wife pulled her into her arms. Becky's hands were on Freen's waist and Freen put her arms around Becky's neck, her hands playing with her wife's hair.

We danced the night away
We drank too much
I held your hair back when
You were throwing up

The couple were gazing at each other's eyes intensely.

Then you smiled over your shoulder
For a minute I was stone-cold sober
I pulled you closer to my chest
And you asked me to stay over
I said, I already told you
I think that you should get some rest

"I love you, my wife, my everything"

Becky pulls Freen into her arms, still slow dancing.

I knew I loved you then
But you'd never know
Cause I played it cool when I was scared of letting go
I knew I needed you
But I never showed
But I wanna stay with you
Until we're grey and old
Just say you won't let go
Just say you won't let go

"I love you too, Becky. Always." Freen whispers, her head still buried on Becky's shoulders.

I wake you up with some breakfast in bed
I'll bring you coffee
With a kiss on your head
And I'll take the kids to school
Wave them goodbye
And I'll thank my lucky stars for that night

When you looked over your shoulder
For a minute, I forget that I'm older
I wanna dance with you right now, oh
And you look as beautiful as ever
And I swear that every day you'll get better
You make me feel this way somehow

When their favorite part of the lyrics was up. They sang along too.

"I'm so in love with you 

And I hope you know

Darling, your love is more than worth its weight in gold"  Freen sings.

Becky smiles and continues the part.

"We've come so far my dear. 

Look how we've grown. 

And I wanna stay with you

Until we're grey and old. 

Just say you won't let go."

Just say you won't let go"

Freen and Becky slow danced through out that song. Becky's heart fluttered. No matter what they go through, Freen always made her feel this way. They made each other fall in love even more.

Forever starts today.
