Slightly Destroyed

chapter 11.

"This is the right church? right?" Dad questions from the front of the car. We had been sitting in the churches parking lot for a good 10 minutes.

I lean forward, my arms resting on the two chairs "it's called St Maria's?" I question checking the invitation again.

Dad nods and I pat him on shoulder letting him know this was the right church. "dad we should head in" Nick says from the seat beside me, Mason nods from the passenger seat.

"Yea dad Adam is probably already in there" Cartier says from the very backseat.

"Yea I don't know why your nervous none of us are getting married" I laugh at Mason's comment.

Dad sighs nodding. I knew why he was nervous, it was because the last time we had all been out in a public matter was mom's funeral.

We all open up the doors and I slide out and unbuckle Jacks from his car seat before placing him on my hip as we make our way into the church.

My dad and the rest of my family made their way inside the church and grabbing a seat, as I took Jacks to the restroom before the ceremony actually starts.

"Where's Adam?" Jacks questions, I point towards the front of the church were the bridesmaids and groomsmen were lining up

"Adam is lining up with those well dressed people" he nods as I follow the sighs that tell me where the nearest restroom is.

The ceremony wasn't long but it wasn't short either. The bridesmaids looked so pretty in their dresses, and the groomsmen looked handsome. Overall it was a perfect wedding for Aiden and his wife, Allison.

I was surprised when Aiden had asked Adam to be his best man when he had Grayson, but Grayson didn't mind cause he didn't wanna say a speech at the reception. He hated making public speeches, something I found out from Ryder.

After pictures we all made our way back to our cars to start heading to the reception place, which was downtown and would take at least forty minutes if their isn't any traffic.

I smile as Mason bounces Jacks on his knees ,the music blasting within the room and most likely echoing outside into the hall.

After all the eating, first dances, father daughter dance, mother son dance, and speeches the party was now in full swing.

Adam comes up introducing dad to the maid of honour. Looks likes Adam finally met someone.

I had talked to Claire, the maid of honour awhile ago. She was really nice and pretty, I'd accept her to be Adams girlfriend if it were to go that far. Adam had spent the years away from us living in guilt I could see it in his eyes every time he looks at me.

Mason passes Jacks to Cartier who was in a conversation with Lauren, who was also welcome to come along.

"Come on Bec, let's dance" Mason says grabbing my hand, and pulling me out of my seat.

I catch the napkin that was placed on my lap before falling. I place it on the table as Mason leads me around the chairs

"It's a slow song" I point out, looking towards the crowd that had settled down.

"Who cares, everyone knows we're family" He shrugs dragging me towards the dancing crowd.

I place my arms on his shoulders, as he wraps his arms around my waist, he leads us through the slow dance song.

"Look I'm sorry, I shut you guys out a couple days ago" he starts, I shake my head.

"You don't need to apologize Mason, we all shut out the world at some point and yours just happened to be this week" he smiles.
