Take Me Back To The Start (Tony Perry, Mike Fuentes, other people?)

Somebody Silently Reached For Their Hand

Charlie's POV: 

I looked at myself in the mirror and sighed. It's been 3 months since the Austin incident and I still haven't fully recovered but I'm doing my best. Tony and I haven't really talked that much, I think he's scared that I'm going to lose it or something. The only interaction we've had is sex. We've had sex a few times in the past months. But there was no spark like there usually was, it was almost as if it was just sex.

"Hey you ready," Nikki asked from the doorway. She looked stunning, she's my maid of honor and I think she looks better than I do. Oh yeah, I'm getting married today. 

I nodded and picked my dress up. I didn't want a big wedding, I didn't want the church or the people. I didn't want the dress and I didn't want to walk down the aisle. I begged Tony to go with my to City Hall but he wanted this. He wanted the big white wedding. She smiled and I heard the music start to play. Jess, Sarah and Nikki walked down the aisle with large smiles plastered to their faces. I looked around and freaked because I realized I had no one to walk me down the isle. Jaime, Mike and Vic were all waiting for the ladies. I saw Liam standing next to his Uncle Mike. He's been taking care of Liam a lot lately. Of cource my band was there in the front row where my family should have been, but I guess they are in a way there. My band is my family now.

I heard a door close behind me and loud footsteps pound towards me. I turned as a tall figure hooked his arm in mine. "LANE," I squeeled as I saw my brother flash a large grin at me. 

"Come on now, it's not a wedding unless your brother walks you down the aisle," he said as he continued to smirk. 

My music started playing and we walked down the aisle, uncertainty running through my veins. I looked to Tony and found that he wasn't looking at me but rather a gorgeous blonde sitting in the front row. She looked familiar but I just couldn't find her name. I rolled my eyes but continued to smile. We stopped and my brother kissed my cheek. 

"I love you Charlie," he whispered before telling the pastor that it was he who was giving me away. 

I smiled throughout the ceremony even though Tony kept stealing glances at the one girl. Mike followed his gaze and the color drained from his face. He shook his head subtly and stuck his tongue out at me to make me smile. We exchanged our own vows and before I knew it Tony was quickly pecking me on the lips. It was nothing like the first time we got married. Something was wrong and I couldn't place my finger on it.

I frowned for a second but then made it look like I was the happiest girl in the world. I didn't need people asking me why I didn't look happy on my 'big day'. Tony intertwined our fingers and we walked out of the church. Nikki, Vic, Sarah, Mike, Jess and Jaime followed us out. We were soon joined by all of our friends and Tony's family. 

"Love you look great," Oli said as he hugged me. I noticed the small, gorgeous figure behind him and gave him a wink. "Congratulations Tony, you've got yourself a great lady," Oli said with a large smile on his face. 

"Uh huh, thanks man," Tony replied as he searched for someone in the crowd of people. "I'll uh, see you at the reception, Oli." 

They nodded and walked away. I walked away and got into the car that would drive us to a club venue for our reception. He spent the car ride smirking at his phone and texting. I don't mean to be self centered but I kind of thought he'd pay more attention to me. I sighed and pulled my phone from my bra. I had 3 messages. 

~Oli: What was wrong with Tony? I'd be fucking thrilled if you married me.~

~Mike: Is everything okay? I don't need to worry about a divorce already, do I?~
