Upon walking back to the table and sitting down, Scott pressed a quick kiss to Mitch's lips, and smiled at him.
Mitch grinned right back. "Hi, Husband."
"Hello, Sweetheart. Are you having fun?"
"Are you kidding? This is the best day of my life." Mitch assured, a large smile gracing his lips.
Scott smiled right back. "Good. That's exactly what I needed to hear."
Mitch giggled, and got some food on his fork to feed to Scott.
After Scott chewed and swallowed, he slid his hand down Mitch's neck, down his chest to touch the dress that was on his body. "I am really, really glad that you decided to wear this. You look absolutely gorgeous."
Mitch looked down at himself. "You really think so?"
"Of course I do." Scott moved a few of his fingers to lift Mitch's head to meet his eyes. "You're the most beautiful person I've ever laid eyes on."
Mitch smiled widely, reaching a hand up to gently hold Scott's hand and pulled it away from his face. "Thank you for letting me buy it... And thank you for both of the rings you bought me... I'll never ever forget this day."
Scott ginned at him. "You're welcome, my love." He then leaned forward and gave Mitch a quick peck on the lips, before kissing his forehead, and then pulling away.
After walking back in the room, once he'd thrown Scott's parents out, Avi got everyone's attention in the room.
He walked through the dining room, speaking to everyone, who had silenced the room to listen to him. "I just wanted to quickly say that... I love these two people more than just as friends. Mitchell here has been a part of my family for quite some time. And.. He was the first Omega I'd ever taken into my care. Ever since the moment I met him, I knew that he deserved to be happy."
Avi stole a glance at Mitch, and smiled. "Sometimes he and I don't get along so well. And I think it's because... We're both very sarcastic."
Mitch's father laughed loudly, and that only encouraged Avi even more.
Avi grinned a little. "But regardless of how much we argue... I know that there is no one better for him, than Mr. Scott Hoying. Scott was the last into our pack, and I often find myself jealous of him. Especially when he was named the World's Strongest Alpha. But he is always humble. And no matter how many people surround him, he always takes care of everyone else. Always putting them before himself."
He turned his smile to Scott then. "I know that sound like an exaggeration, but I'm not joking. He literally has never, ever taken care of himself before anyone else. I'll give you an example. Once, Scott basically shattered every bone in his hand to catch Alexander, another Omega in our pack, to save him from hitting the concrete. And then, like an idiot, he carried Alexander back to our car with his nearly broken arm."
Scott pouted at him. "I wasn't being an idiot, I was being careful."
"Yeah, okay. I'll give you another one. Way back when we had to fight the First Alpha, Scott dislocated his shoulder. And it was like.. Severely bruised. But he still carried Mitchell down a flight of stairs to get back to the rest of the pack. How do you even do that? I will never understand."
A few people laughed, but Scott scoffed at him. "I have literally no idea. I'm pretty sure I blacked out."
More people laughed at that, including Avi, who then rose his glass. "So, here it is. A toast, to Rookie and Peanut. To bite-sized and his stupid giant. To two of my best friends in the whole world. I love you guys, and I hope you have the best life together. After all that both of you have been through, I have not one single doubt in my mind that there is no one better for each of you, than the other. If all of you would please raise your glasses. Here's to the cutest couple I've ever seen."
His words inspired Kevin to stand and do his best not to be awkward. "Um. Hello, everyone... I just wanted to get something out really quick. I have seen these two people argue about just about everything on the earth. You name it, they argued about it. But each time, they came back stronger than before. Strong enough to be sitting in these seats right now, as husband and husband. And..."
He stopped, looked down and shook his head. "I don't mean to get... But I am not lying when I say this is the strongest couple I've ever seen. We, in the pack, have always joked about Scott being our security guard. But he really, really is. He'd lay his life down for each and every person in this room. Because that's the kind of person he is. And... I find that incredibly admirable."
Mitch interrupted with a cheer to vocalize his agreement.
Kevin grinned at him, because it made him feel a little more confident. "They even... Okay, this is so cute. Everyone hold onto your hats. They got these matching necklaces a while ago. And the one Mitch wears says 'Scott's beautiful Angel' and the one Scott wears says 'Mitchie's Warrior.' And I know that it is kind of a simple thing, but I always thought that it was the most adorable thing I'd ever seen."
Scott looked down to pull his necklace out from under his jacket, and he smiled at Mitch when Mitch saw it.
Kevin frowned though. "Alpha, you promised me... It doesn't match."
"Sorry. Couldn't help myself."
"Anyways... My point was... Proverbs 20:6-7 says, 'Most men will proclaim each his own goodness, but who can find a faithful man? The righteous man walks in his integrity; His children are blessed after him.' A toast to these two beautiful, righteous men."
Alex jumped out of his seat. "To the beautiful, righteous men!"
Kevin's mother put a hand in the air. "Amen."
Kevin sat back down with a smile, and grabbed Todrick's hand immediately. "I did it. Whew. Quite a rush."
"I told you it wouldn't be that bad."

At the end of the ceremony, Scott carried Mitch out of the dining room as the standing ovation cheered for them.
Scott stopped once to let Mitch toss his bouquet behind him, and then they both turned to see Todrick catch it.
Todrick had just stared at it for a second, before laughing and running over to Kevin to show him.
Mitch giggled at him, and then Scott carried him out of the room, and headed straight for their hotel room.
Quickly after, Kevin and Todrick agreed to come back the next day to help clean up. Until then they would drive home with the others.
Kevin had put the left over cake in a box, and set it in the passenger seat while Jake drove.
Meanwhile Alex sat between Kevin and Todrick, and Kirstie sat in the back with Avi.
Alex was quiet for a bit, until he finally just couldn't contain himself anymore. "That was so cute! Wasn't it cute?! I've been to like four weddings, including my own, but that was the best!"
He quickly turned to Avi. "I mean, no offense or anything! I just... He's my best friend..."
Todrick grabbed his hand and smiled at him. "I agree."
Avi's arm was over Kirstie, as she attempted to sleep. But she couldn't keep herself from adding in to the conversation. "Absolutely, oh my goodness, they are absolutely adorable."
Alex giggled, and grabbed one of Kevin's hands to hold with Todrick's. "I'm so glad I got to be there... It's so nice to see happy moments in life, as far apart as they are..."
Todrick leaned over to kiss Alex's shoulder, before setting his head on Alex's arm. "I know, Allie. I'm glad you saw it too."
