Living For Today

Chapter 52

Omniscient POV

She closed her eyes as she felt a sob come on. She knew she had done what was best for her even if it was saying no to Niall. His heart sank but somehow he felt relieved. He felt as though, if they were to get married, there was way more pressure on them. Like, they were to be the perfect couple and he was afraid too. Upset, nonetheless though. There was a gasp from every mouth in the church and she peeled her eyes open to look at him.

He smiled awkwardly and nodded, telling her he understood. She felt relieved but they were both bright red and embarrassed, for seperate reasons. Moriah held herself back as she was afraid everything was going to waste because of the moment that had just passed. As she cringed at all the criticism her friends would get she had a thought.

After a long while where nothing was said by literally anyone and just stares were exchanged, Moriah stepped forward and whispered in Sarah's ear. No one else heard the words exchanged but once they were she turned around to hug her maid of honour and nodded with a smile. Niall had no words to say and all the boys kind of congregated behind him and patted his back. He turned around and looked at his friends, knowing that maybe she did the right thing. "it's okay guys. She wasn't ready." he said, trying to sound okay with it. He knew he'd get over it but was mostly afraid of what the media would say.

Moriah talked to the girls quietly before making up her mind. They all smiled at the idea as the boys wondered what they were all smiling about. She stepped forward and in front of Niall with a sympathetic smile. "it was the right thing for her to do. I know you feel the same." She whispered and he knew she was right then she whispered the same question to him as she did to all the girls. He nodded in encouragement and then she faced the congregation.

"well, thank you all for coming. Sarah wasn't ready and I don't think any of you should blame her. She's only 19 and I know I'm not much older but since all of this was done up for a wedding I figured there should actually be one." She turned to Louis who just stared at her and how evenly she spoke despite the situation. She stepped towards him and smiled. "I'm gonna get Down on one knee but Louis Tomlinson, will you marry me?"

All the girls and Niall smiled , the other boys and everyone else were shocked. But she figured since everyone was there and traveled all this way, she might as well. She was really nervous and in her mind she hadn't really gone through what he might say but he smiled and nodded as tears tricked his eyes. "yes. Right now?" he looked around at all the different expressions everyone was wearing. She nodded and then laughed. He did along with her at how crazy this was but he always loved doing things in the moment.

"is it okay Niall?" he asked hesitantly to the younger boy and he simply nodded and pushed him towards the minister. They went through the steps and skipped the vows because neither one of them knew what to say.

"I do."

"I do too"

and with that, the girl in a light yellow dress and the boy in the matching tie kissed and signed a piece of paper that was for the new maid of honour wearing white and the blonde best man in a full suit.

Everyone clapped and cheered and the families of everyone teared up. Moriah's mom came to hug her and so did Louis' mum after. Sarah apologized to everything but held Nialls hand as they got some disapproving looks and many "it's okay"s. Ed and Shelby walked down the stairs to their friends at the front of the church and hugged each one.

" you're a crazy lot. You know that? Anything else happen while we were gone?" ed asked and they all just looked at each other and laughed a bit. Andy came up to congratulate the new new couple and to pat Niall on the back, all the while trying not to stare at Sami who was trying not to stare at him.

"I just wasn't ready Niall. I'm sorry."Sarah apologized way more than twice and each time received a small kiss and an "it's perfectly fine princess. We'll figure it out when we're ready." the friends were back together but Andy went to go find Sam who was sitting in the back of the chapel with Maz and Jack and Finn and the rest of their gang.

They both were in the lobby when they finally confronted each other. Andy suddenly felt very angry as he remembered everything Maz and Sofie had told him and all the stupid tweets Sam had made about the girl that he was in love with.

"Sam. Oi! What the hell is wrong with you?!" he yelled as the youtube star turned around to smirk at him.

"Samuels. Get over yourself and don't yell at me. If you like her so much go talk to her." he emphasized the last word, surprisingly much more calm than Andy thought he would be. He remembered how everyone said that he just needed to talk to her, that it was all his fault he didn't come back. But Sam was stepping somewhere he shouldn't and all the emotion that Andy had kept inside suddenly boiled over. He took a step towards Sam as his arm raised itself up. His fist made contact with Sam's jaw as he raised his arm to hit Andy.

Each boy had hit each other as friends and some family and grandparents stood around and watched in horror. Blood stained the shirts of the two boys as security came to intervene. Andy was so rallied up he hit one of the security guards who told him to leave and Sam did the same right after. Both boys were soon stopped and police showed up outside.

"Sami, Sam's been arrested. Andy was too. They fought in the lobby then outside and apparently it was a "public disturbance" so you may want to go see them." Marcus warned the girl in pink as she rolled her eyes. She knew Andy would be mad but not that mad. She excused herself from the long table that the group was headed to, for the reception at the old grand hotel.

The others simply sat, with friends coming up to say congratulations and to wish Niall and Sarah good luck with whatever they decided. Her mother still wasn't very happy but knew she wanted her daughter to be happy.

"speeches anyone? " Liam called to the group
