A/N: I kinda feel like this one seems a little rushed and all over the place, but I haven't posted anything on here in so long that I feel like I needed to post something, which is where this came from. Sorry if its not the best, but its something, right? Hope you get some enjoyment out of it if you read it!

Three weeks.

Three weeks until I marry the man of my dreams.

Three weeks until we stitch our lives together forever.

I looked over at the man in the seat next to me. I admired his jaw line and neck that I've kissed so many times. The way his eyes fluttered in his sleep. The sound of his voice when he'd whisper "Good morning beautiful." In my ear before he got up for work. His arms around me tightly, holding me against his strong chest. The way his he ran his fingers through my hair, which puts my to sleep after a while. All of those were among the reasons I love him.

I pulled out my IPad and scrolled through my wedding notes, revising them. I sighed looking at the guest list. Four hundred people that had to be cut down to two fifty to accommodate our venue. Neither of us knew who to cut from the list. Several times this caused arguments between us, one so severe I thought it'd be the end of us for sure. Thankfully we pulled through it.

I don't need to invite Jenny, we never talk. I thought. But she's Uncle Percy's wife's daughter, and I have to invite him because my closest uncle.  Maybe I could uninvite some old friends I never talk to. But which ones. Dave? No, he's the reason I graduated. Tanya? She was the first person I came out to though...

I closed Evernote and rubbed my temples. This was harder than I thought it would be. Why do wedding have to be so stressful if they're supposed to be the happiest day of your live?

The plane shook side to side and I flinched. This is why I hate flying. I can handle the other passengers and the altitude, but the turbulence drove  me crazy and prevented me from getting any rest or relaxation, unlike Aiden who slept soundly the entire flight. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.

In a few hours we'll be safely on the ground. I soothed myself.

" You okay babe?" Aiden asks me. I look over at him and give him a half smile and a slight nod of my head.

He takes my shaking hand in his and softly kisses my fingers, " It'll be okay baby, I promise."

I nodded my head again and try to relax. His thumb repeatedly strokes my hand and I ease up a little, until the plane is thrown violently to the right, sending Aiden on top of me. Now trembling, I'm biting my lip and fighting back tears. Aiden holds my head against his neck and rubs my back. " Its okay baby, just a little rough turbulence. We'll be home soon."

I just nod and inhale his calming scent. Soon I find my self lost in it and completely oblivious to my surroundings. At some point Aiden starts humming and I smile, recognizing out song. " I love you." I whisper.

"I love you too." He whispers back, and kisses the top of my head.

"What are we going to do about the guest list baby?"

He sighed, " I don't know."

"We could cut out the football team...."  I suggested. Aiden tensed and I know I had just started an argument. He pulled away from me and glared. " Why do we have to cut my people? I still talk to all but one of those guys, in fact I talk to ninety nine percent of the people  on my part of the list. What about you Josh? How many to you talk to? Thirty percent? Forty? Not even?"

I looked out the window and shrugged, it was true. Many of the people I wanted to invite I didn't talk to much. Some people I hadn't talked to in about ten years or so, but I felt the need to invite them.
