-Chapter 12-

(Emily POV)

It was the big day! The day of the bridal shower, baby shower, bachelor, and bachelorette parties! It was going to be so fun! I already got Lauren tons of presents and I was in charge of setting up the girl parties, whilst Norman was in charge of setting up the guy parties. Now, I have been off the show for a while. My character Beth sadly got killed off, but I still talk to Lauren very regularly. She's my best friend, were practically sisters!

(Lauren's POV)

I walked down the stairs in my sparkly blue dress that clung to my bulging belly. I am now 6 months pregnant, yes we had the parties 2 months after I found out what the gender was. That's plenty of time for my guests to buy presents right? Some of my family was supposed to be flying down but had to cancel due to bad weather. I was disappointed, yes, but at least I have my walking dead family!

Chandler, Emily, Norman, Melissa, Steven of course, Andrew, and even Robert Kirkman, our producer, came as well! Norman brought his son Mingus along so chandler wouldn't be alone.

Chandler didn't have to come, but he really wanted to have fun with the rest of us. I was genuinely quite happy that he did decide to come. I kissed Steven deeply to thank him for everything. Just as I kissed him, I felt the same sparks that I have always felt with him.

And you stood there in front of me just
Close enough to touch
Close enough to hope you couldn't see
What I was thinking of
Drop everything now
Meet me in the pouring rain
Kiss me on the sidewalk
Take away the pain
'Cause I see, sparks fly, whenever you smile

I see sparks fly every time he smiles, every time we kiss, every time he just stares at me. I know for a fact I will forever and always love him...

(Stevens POV)

I kept thinking about the ways I love Lauren. I love her so much... Now to just thing them out loud... I'm not good at singing so I'll just play it for her.

"Lauren" I said suddenly as she looked at me

"Yea babe?" She asked me sweetly making the butterflies go back to my stomach. I've had the same butterflies since we first met.

"I want to play you a song" I said as Lauren nodded and I played it

"When your legs don't work like they used to before
And I can't sweep you off of your feet
Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love?
Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks?

And, darling, I will be loving you 'til we're 70
And, baby, my heart could still fall as hard at 23
And I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe just the touch of a hand
Well, me—I fall in love with you every single day
And I just wanna tell you I am

So, honey, now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
Maybe we found love right where we are

When my hair's all but gone and my memory fades
And the crowds don't remember my name
When my hands don't play the strings the same way (mmm...)
I know you will still love me the same

'Cause, honey, your soul could never grow old, it's evergreen
And, baby, your smile's forever in my mind and memory
I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe it's all part of a plan
Well, I'll just keep on making the same mistakes
Hoping that you'll understand

That, baby, now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart
Thinking out loud
Maybe we found love right where we are (oh, oh)

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, lo-ud

So, baby, now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Oh, darling, place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
But maybe we found love right where we are
Oh, baby, we found love right where we are
And we found love right where we are"

               -Hours Later-

It was after the parties and I stood there staring at my beautiful soon-to-be wife. I was so in love with her more and more each day. At my showers I refused to drink any alcohol because, I thought that it was unfair. Since Lauren couldn't drink, I couldn't drink. I was genuinely excited for our wedding, the birth of our daughter, and all the memories yet to come.

The only bad thing is, Lauren has been feeling a little sick lately. Thus saying this, the doctors have warned us when saying we probably won't be able to have another kid. This upset me because I wanted more kids with Lauren, but I also wanted her safe. I wonder what the sickness is? Oh well... I just hope our wedding is amazing

------------A/N------
Whilst I have been writing this, I have also been writing my final chapter. I do want to say if you are sensitive to the subject of cancer, then please DONT read it. Finish it at chapter 19. Chapter 20 is a very very sad chapter and is incredibly hard for me to actually write. Thank you so so much for sticking with this story! I will be starting something new I hope by March 24th...
