Criminal Case Oneshots

Slipping Through My Fingers

Another lovely oneshot written by our amazing AwesomePinerin. I recommend having tissues because this one is a beautiful tear-jerker! Thank him in the comments; he's truly awesome, just like his namesake. 

Adelaine's POV

"Before I say the fateful words, I would like the bride and groom to make their vows. First, we'll give the stage to the Bride." Ramirez announces.

"Thanks, Mister Ramirez." I smile, before turning to my soon-to-be husband, my one and only romantic love, Hugh Anderson.

"Hugh... even though I've known you for 13 years, I always feel like there's something new that I can learn from you every day. I've learnt a lot of drama skills from you, and without you as my sidekick, Fairview's Theatre Department would have never reached the heights that most attribute to me. You had always put me first before others, protecting me during my most vulnerable times... and now we have reached the top. But regardless of our future roles, whether it be in the family as parents or as movie superstars, I'll always be at your side. Hugh, you're my best friend, my prince, and from today, my husband. I love you, Hugh!" I pour my heart out as I speak my vow, which I've prepared for weeks.

Then it's Hugh's turn. "Adelaine... I... -Hugh already starts to cry- I don't even know where to start! You've always been beside me, Adelaine, no matter how rough the times were. You were by my side whenever I needed you the most, and I literally cannot imagine my life without you. Even when we were separated during our college years, you still devoted your heart to me, and I devoted my heart to you as well. And this will be our future, as we craft new stars on the Walk of Fame together. And... -Hugh chokes from his tears- I just like... you're always going to be the person I care the most, Adelaine. I love you so much, my dear Adelaine Roseanne!" Hugh cries from sheer happiness, barely able to keep his composure.

"Alright, I know you're waiting for this very moment, you two. I now pronounce you husband and wife! You may now kiss the bride!" Ramirez announces, as Hugh pounces on me, while all my friends and family clap. I'm now officially Mrs. Adelaine Anderson!

After the two of us shared the fateful kiss that sealed us as husband and wife, I was taken gently down the aisle to the wedding cake. The wedding cake is laced with glitters of edible gold flakes, topped with strawberries and chocolate, as well as a few photos of me and Hugh's moments. Hugh and I got the knife and cut the cake before it was distributed to the many guests. While everyone is supposed to have one, Dad also got two because he loved the cake, and there were leftovers anyway.

The two of us got back to the altar, with me taking the bouquet as Ramirez told us to throw it. With Hugh's help, I threw the bouquet, with William catching it, though Frances was close to catching it too. Man, today's the best day of our lives!

The two of us began the wedding party dance, with Dad and I jamming to "Mamma Mia" while Hugh danced with my godfather. During the dancing, Gabby and Jackson came up to me. Gabby's wearing a deep sparkling purple dress, which placed her small baby bump on display, while Jackson wore a formal suit that hid his muscles. I haven't had the chance to talk to her yet during the wedding.

"Gabby! How's the baby doing?" I ask.

"I'm gonna be honest, Adelaine... Gabby and I suspect that she's having more than one child. She's only 3 months in, and yet her stomach looks like 5 or 6 months already, and she also had severe morning sickness and suddenly got way heavier than expected." Jackson murmurs.

"Mhm... I really only want one child and that's all, but who knows?" Gabby admits.

"I see... well, me and Hugh have already been talking about having kids, and we'll have to wait and see how many kids we want." I smile.
