Drowning

Chapter seventy three

Three days until the wedding and things were exciting as ever! Seth and Amy's families were in town, the ranch in Rochester was being set up, people were running around doing last minute things; everybody loved every second of it. Just to be apart of something so exciting and magical was enough, but since it was someone they were deeply close with. Someone from the cast was always at Amy and Seth's house, Tina and Jimmy practically lived there the week before. Elizabeth was always on call if she needed to watch August.
"And you preordered the floral arrangements right?" Amy double checked.
"Yes." Tina nodded. "They're going to come at eight that morning. The crew will set up that and everything else, you have nothing to worry about."
"I know it's just..." She collapsed on the couch. "I'm so fucking worried and stressed this is just going to be lame."
"Amy, who gives a shit about anyone else? They're there for you. You and Seth, you guys are the only ones whose happiness matters."
"But do you think it will be fun?"
"Yes!" She cried. "It'll be the best party of the year, everyone's so excited!"
Amy sighed and leaned into her.
"Thank you T, I don't know why I'm not marrying you in three days."
"I HEARD THAT!" Seth called from the nursery where he was changing his sons diaper. The girls giggled.
"I LOVE YOU BABE!"
"WHATEVER, TELL THAT TO TINA!"
"I love you babe." Amy smiled at her.
"I love you too babe."

"Alright, y'all ready?" Amy slapped her suitcase. The families and everyone in the bridal party met the morning before the day of the wedding at 30rock. They all nodded, walking out. Lorne was standing outside.
"Your chariot awaits." He smiled, gesturing to a large white stretch limo parked in the front.
"Holy shit!" Her mouth dropped open. "T!! Tina? Do you see this?"
"I see it!"
"It's so pretty!" Kristen exclaimed.
"Well don't just stare at it, get in." Lorne laughed. He didn't have to tell them twice, they all climbed inside, choosing their spots. Fun good music was playing and a bottle of champagne was in an ice bucket.
"LETS GET THIS PARTY STARTED!" Amy whooped, popping it open. Everyone cheered and got a glass. They danced in their seats to every song that came on and had the time of their life. If Amy was ever excited for this wedding, she was excited about it then. It was as if all the excitement she didnt know she had in her was being stored and all of it was coming out then.
"WAHHOO!" She cheered, raising her glass. "Seth! Seth, we're going to get married tomorrow!"
"I know arent you excited?" he smiled. She nodded giddily and rested her head in the crook of his neck.
"Remember the last time you were on the way to this place?" Jimmy asked quietly in Tina's ear. She sighed and looked at him. The last time she was on her way to this place she was losing her mind and falling apart. Her whole life had taken its toll and she didnt know if it was even worth living even more. She wrapped her arms around his stomach.
"Yeah." she whispered. "Thank god times have changed."
Maya and Fred were hardcore hip-hop dancing in their seats, Kristen and Bill were cracking each other up. Seth and Amy's families were deep in happy conversation, all was well.

After everyone unpacked, they had a big barbecue and went swimming in the lake. Kristen took off her shirt and wore her plain bathing suit for the first time in almost over a year.
"They've healed." Bill smiled at her, referring to her bruises and scars. She nodded.
"It's tough being a bull fighter." she exhaled, pressing her lips together. He couldn't help to laugh.
"So I've heard." he put his arm around her and they looked at everyone splashing around in the water and stayed there for a moment.
"GUYS CMON IN! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?" Andy hollered.
"Come on." she smiled, taking his hand and leading him into the water. Amy started splashing them excitedly. Everyone spent that afternoon floating around, talking, eating and laughing. It was what many people would call the perfect day. By sunset, they thought it was over but it was really just beginning. Seth's dad hooked into the sound system while everyone was finishing their dinner and first started blasting sweet home Alabama. Amy cracked up.
"This one's his favorite." Seth grinned.
"C'mon guys, why arent we dancing?" Maya grabbed Fred and they began rocking out. Bill twirled Kristen around and they started attempting a two-step. Somehow, Tina and Jimmy knew a whole line dance to this song.
"Woah!" Seth's brother, Josh laughed.
"C'mon, follow us." She grinned. They led the way and everyone tried to follow them, having a tremendous amount of trouble. People were stepping on each others feet, tripping; everyone was sore from laughter by the end of the song.
"Tina since when could you dance?" Amy huffed, out of breath. She giggled.
"Jimmy took me to a barn party once."
"One time was all it took?" Bill put his hand on his knees.
"Obviously." Fred said.
"PLAY ANOTHER ONE LAWRENCE!" Amy called. And he did, he played one after that and after that one too. And Seth and Amy danced with the ones they loved the most until long after midnight. It was almost a full moon that night, the next night it would be fully full; they made sure their wedding as scheduled on a full moon because of Amy's infatuation with them.
She plopped down on the grass and exhaled deeply.
"Shit, I'm tired." She said. "what time is it?"
"Twelve fifteen." Rachel said. Amy screamed out loud.
"SETH LEAVE RUN! GO AWAY!DONT LOOK AT ME!"
He covered his eyes.
"Why?"
"ITS OUR WEDDING DAY, YOU CANT SEE ME!"
Jimmy ran over, scooped her up and started running.
"RUN JIMMY RUN!" Tina called.He ran about 16 feet until he couldn't take it anymore and he dropped them both to the ground. They both started laughing.
"SETH RUN AWAY!" She cried. "I LOVE YOU, SO EXCITED TO MARRY YOU!"
"I LOVE YOU!" He jumped on Bill's back and then ran towards their cabin. After all that was over, Amy, Tina, Maya, Rachel, Kristen, and her mom walked into their cabin.
"I cant believe my babies getting married tomorrow." Eileen smiled.
"I know." Tina sniveled, leaning against her shoulder. "Our baby is all grown up, Eileen."
"I just had a baby and you're worried about me getting married?" she laughed, throwing on one of Seth's big t-shirts. They chuckled.
"I feel so gross, but I don't feel like showering." Maya groaned.
"We'll have time tomorrow, lets just get some sleep." She laid down in her bed. "Thank you guys for all the support and just everything you've given me these past few months."
"Of course baby." Maya smiled.
"Duh." Rachel said.
"Yeah, after everything you've done for us?" Kristen smiled.
"I love you sweetheart." Eileen curled up and started dozing off. Tina reached down and held Amy's hand.
"I love you." she whispered.
