Live For The Moment

Chapter 40: The Wedding (Part 2)

LUCY'S P.O.V

I slipped on my new heels and stood up straight to admire myself in the mirror. For the reception, I'd changed into a plain floor length white dress so that I could move around easier. I looked at the beautiful wedding ring on my finger. Harry really had gone all out, and I loved him for it. I was snapped out of my trance when there was a knock at the door to my hotel room.

"It's open!"

I adjusted the belt around my waist as Emma walked into the room. I smiled at her.

"What are you doing here? I would have thought you'd have been at the reception," I said.

"I was, but Harry got paranoid so he sent me up here. He's filming a Vine with cheesecake or something."

I laughed. Harry was always doing stupid Vines and I always watched them when I was away from him for a long time.

"Oh, and I have something for you. Harry asked me to give it to you."

Emma reached into her handbag that matched her sparkly blue party dress perfectly. She pulled out a silver locket and placed it in my hand.

"What is it?" I asked.

"It's a locket. From your mum."

My hand instantly opened and the chain tumbled to the floor.

"I don't want it," I mumbled.

Emma knelt down and picked the locket up. She opened it and placed it back in my hands. It was a picture, of me, mum and my so called dad before the beatings started, when we were happy. I sniffed before dropping the locket to the ground.

"No, I don't want it. It's time to let go of the past. I'm starting a new chapter in my life and I need to forget on my upbringing and focus on mine and Harry's childs upbringing," I said.

I brung my foot up and crashed it down on top of the worthless locket, crushing it into tiny pieces. Emma smiled and hugged me.

"You ready?" she asked.

"Yeh."

The walk down the recption was filled with the explanation why Tom couldn't come to the actual ceremony and only the reception. Once we got down to the main hall, the sound of people talking and laughing filled myy ears. I looked around the bustling room and one specific table caught my eye.

"Oh my god!"

It was everyone from my old tutor back at school, and they were all here, every single one of them. I squealed and ran over to the table.

"Hey guys!" I said excitedly.

"Hey Lu!" my old friend, Meg, smiled.

"Megan! It's been ages!"

We all talked for a little while before I moved around so that I could talk to other people and thank them for coming. Eventually, I got back to the main table and Harry smiled when he saw me.

"I was wondering where you got to," he said as I sat down.

"Did you know Emma had invited my old class?" I asked him.

"Yep, I wanted to keep it as a surprise though."

"Speaking of surprises." I gulped. "Harry, I'm... I'm pregnant."

Harry looked at me shocked for a few seconds, before his face broke out in one of the biggest grins I've ever seen him do.

"You mean i'm gonna be a daddy?" he asked.

"Yep, if you want to be."

"Of course I do!"

Harry leant in and hugged me. I let out a sigh of relief. I was so happy that he was excited about being a parent.

"Time for the speech," Harry whispered in my ear.

He stood up and clinked his knife with his glass and everyone went silent. He took a deep breath.

"Right, first of all I wanted to thank all of you for attending this very special occasion today, it really means alot to myself and Lu. I also want to thank all of the bridesmaids, paige boys and of course little Lux the flower girl for helping us out and making this even more special than it already is. I could go on for hours with all the thank yous, but their's one special person that I really want to thank, my beautiful wife Lucy. Lu, when I first met you, I'm not gonna lie, you were a stubborn bitch."

Everybody laughed including myself.

"You called me every name under the sun when I tried to give you my phone number, but I persuaded you to take it and it was the best descion I've ever made. I remember when we went on holiday together for the first time and I confessed that I loved you. You looked at me like I was a mad man, until you told me that you felt the same. Our relationship has just grown stronger over the years and I know that, if you ever left me, I would never be complete again. Becuase, at the end of the day, you're my missing puzzle piece and I would be lost without you. Lucy April Star, I love you with all my heart and here's to the many happy years ahead. Cheers."

Harry raised his glas and so did everyone else, followed by a roar of claps. I felt myself tearing up as Harry sat down.

"Thank you," I whsipered.

"You're welcome."

"WAIT!" Emma yelled, standing up on the table.

She stood there in silence for about 10 seconds before:

"BUFFETS OPEN!" she yelled.

"I heard that!" I and the rest of my former classmates said.

Within seconds, everybody was up at the buffet table and Harry flashed me a confused look.

"what the hell?"

"It's this thing we used to do at school to piss off our teachers. Ain't that right Charlie!"

"Yep," my old clasmate, Charlie Biggin said through a mouthful of food.

Harry shook his head as he went up to get us both a plate of food. The table was empty after a few minutes and everyone was stuffed to the brim. Zayn walked up to Harry and whispered something in his ear.

"Come with me!" Harry said, grabbing my wrist and pulling me up."

I laughed as Harry dragged me to the middle of the dance floor where there was a single chair. I sat down on it and Harry moved up onto the stage where the rest of the band were waiting.

"Ok ladies and gentlemen, this is 'Truly, Madly, Deeply' and it is dedicated to the absaloutely fabulous Lucy Star," Louis smiled into the microphone.

Harry kept eye contact with me the whole time and as the song finished, everyone clapped. Harry moved off stage and I gave him the biggest hug ever.

"It is now time for the first dance, so if I could ask everyone to clear the dance floor for the newly weds," Ed Sheeran said over the microphone.

Everbody who had been dancing to the song moved away. I watched as Ed picked up his guitar. We had asked him to play 'Give me Love' for our first dance as Ed had done so much for us both and Harry and I both loved the song. As Ed began to strum, on his guitar, Harry placed his hands on my hips and I wrapped my arms around his neck. We swayed to the music as we looked inot each others eyes.

"I love you so much," harry whsipered in my ear.

"I love you too."

Nobody knew what was going to happen to mine and Harry's relationship, nobody knew where it was going to take us. That day was the best day of my life, and I tell you what, I wouldn't have changed it for the world. Nobody else mattered, it was just us and the music.

Do you know what the moral of my story is? Never take anything for granted, as you never know when it could just disappear. We only have one life, so we all need to just Live For The Moment...
