Shatter Me: Warnette Wedding

The Wedding Ceremony

Juliette's POV

I'm getting married today. I'm getting married to Aaron. I'm currently getting dressed up and prepared by Kenji's girlfriend Kiara and I can't calm down the mess of nerves in my stomach and the tingling in my chest. Kiara is also my bridesmaid along with Sonya, Sara, and Alia. My maid of honor is Kiara who organized all of this. She has the power to calculate quickly.

In a few hours I will transition from Juliette Ferrars to Juliette Aaron Warner. I can't believe it, but I'm wearing an ivory colored dress which has a curved neckline. Then it hugs my waist and flares onto a huge plastic contraption which gives it a semi - bubble shape. The waist down is also covered in white lace 3D flower designs. Kiara decided to ty ny hair up in a bun wrapped around by a braid which has a veil clipped whicg goes back into a 12 foot, net train Aaron designed it himself.

"You're ready to get knocked up!" I don't think Kenji could have found a better match. He's also posing as my Best Man. James is Aaron's Best Man. Adam is his second. We were able to become friends after he came to his senses and became friends with Aaron.

Me and Aaron had told everyone at an organized dinner party where I was tackled by Kenji and Aaron was tackled by James.

All of my bridesmaids burst in along with Kenji in tow. He's also walking me down the aisle. When Aaron asked me about it I refused to contact my parents.

"Let's get this show on Princess"

"O...okay" I'm still nervous but then Kenji places his hands on my shoulders and leans in.

"You look amazing. You and pint-headed Warner are a perfect match and unstoppable. You have no reason to be nervous" he takes his hands off and leans back.

"Except for the fact that your miserable life is changing for forever and this is pretty much it." I want to punch him but I'm still too nervous. I grab the chair so that I don't faint. This time Kiara speaks.

"Juliette? Calm down. Just focus on Aaron waiting for you." I tuned my thoughts toward Aaron and surprisingly calmed down.

Kenji offers his arm and I take it.

"Let's go, Moto" he laughs as we walk to the aisle.

The music changes and everyone stands to look at me. Seeing as this was a personal wedding me and Aaron decided to keep it between our friends. But the decorations are still tremendous.

It's 6 pm and we're outdoors where white lights criss cross above me and strings of white flowers hang from every intersection of the lights accented by the pink-orange sky. The flowers consist of Aaron Lilies and Juliet Roses. The same ones on my dress, in my bouquet, and tucked into his tux.

It's perfect. I join elbows with Kenji and we start to walk with Kiara, Sonya, Sara and Lily following. After the first few steps I spot Aaron.

From the moment my eyes fall on his face all of the nervousness flies away. He's wearing a white tux with one of each flowers in his left jacket pocket like the ones above me. His eyes catch mine and my breath catches. Nobody will ever love another person the way we love each other.

Finally, we reach him. Kenji places my hand in Aaron's and gives me a kiss on the forehead which I return with a kiss on the cheek. I turn to Aaron and step onto the platform while minding my dress and handing my bouquet to Kiara. We face each other and gaze into each other eyes.

In front of us is Castle who will be administrating our marriage today.

"Please settle down" Everyone sits. "Today we have gathered here to celebrate the union of Juliette Ferrars and Aaron Warner Anderson in holy matrimony. Let the ceremony commence.

"Do you, Aaron, take Juliette, to be your wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; from this day forward until beyond eternity?" Aaron and I had agreed that our love is stronger than death. We still carry the unwavering eye contact both our eyes filled with never-ending love.

"I do." Emotions happy and loving and beyond words well up in my chest traveling up and threatening to overflow through my eyes.

"Do you, Juliette, take Aaron, to be your husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; from this day forward until beyond eternity?" The next words I say are firm, steady and my eyes full of more love than I could ever express through any other words except these.

"I do"

"Then by the power invested in me I pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride" Aaron briefly turns his head to show a smile of gratitude to Castle and Castle nods back as if to say 'You're welcome, son'.

When Aaron turns back to me I try to say something but it's stuck in my throat.

"I love you" he whispers. I know.

"I love you too" I finally throw my arms around his neck and he meets me half-way there. Just as my lips land on his the crowd bursts into applause but I don't care. In this moment it's just us and we are in our own world all alone. All of our good memories rush to me.

After some throat clearing and coughing that brings us back to reality we pull apart. My arms are suddenly pulled off from ariund Aaron's neck as all of our friends begin to hug and congratulate us.
