After the "Affair" ~Jolex~

The First Day of My Life

Jo P.O.V.
"I'm doing it. For real today." I say as I suck down a milkshake.
"Good. Now the thing is about to start hurry up!"

Alex P.O.V
"We are doing it. For real now." I say as pace around
"Good. Hurry up my leg is tired of kicking people's asses down that aisle."
"Ok I'm ready."
"Lets go."
I walk down the aisle and waited for Jo.
Suddenly, "Here comes the Bride" starts playing and Jo walks down the aisle. God, she looks gorgeous. I can't believe I get to marry that. As a cliché as it is, I am truly the happiest man in the world. Why would
I not be? I have an amazing bride, who is a kickass surgeon, a complete badass, and yet still gorgeous. I always blame myself for being attracted to crazy chicks but this crazy chick was finally the right amount of crazy. Within a blink of an eye Jo is standing in front of me.

Jo P.O.V.
Don't mess up. Don't mess up. Don't mess up!
I am scared to death that I will do something wrong. I love this man so much and I managed to mess it up the first time. Why would I not mess it up this time? Suddenly I know. I won't mess up because after all these years every time we kiss, it feels like the first time we kissed. Sometimes our kisses are cute pecks other times they are hot, steamy make out sessions. But each time our lips touch it feels like its the first time. Alex was right when he said we have been through hell and back. We have and now we are in heaven. We've passed purgatory. And I hope we stay in heaven for the rest of our lives because I will never love anyone like I love him. And I am not going to walk out of this chapel without saying "I do."
I realize that this whole time I've been tuning out the minister and just staring into Alex's beautiful brown eyes.
"Do you, Jo Wilson, take Alex Karev to be your lawfully wedded husband? In sickness and in health, better or for worse, until death do you apart?"
The minister said
"I do."
"And do you, Alex Karev, take Jo Wilson to be your lawfully wedded wife? In sickness and in health, better or for worse, until death do you apart?"
"I do."
"The bride and groom will present their own vows."
"Alex Karev, we started out as worst enemies. Then we became friends over terrible childhoods and lots of beer. We both started to catch feelings but I denied them for the longest time. I then got out of an abusive relationship and you came running to my aid even after everything I put you through. In the middle of the night in complete darkness we had our first kiss. And it felt like nothing I had ever felt before. It was amazing and magical and all of our kisses feel that way to this day. Whether they are long kisses or quick pecks. And now we are officiating our love in a room full of people. And I don't want to do this again with anyone else in my entire life." I said

Alex P.O.V.
God I wanted to kiss her so badly right now, but I have to wait.
"Jo Wilson. My first words to you were "Why are you following me?" If only I knew where you would lead me to I would have probably said something more romantic. I have loved before but never like this. I have finally found someone who gets me. Who understands my past. I remember Callie saying in those first few moments that we met saying, 'Stop sleeping with your co-workers. It ruins them.' And I'd like to think that I didn't ruin this one. All I want to do for the rest of my life is make sure that I don't ruin you. That I make you happy and that everyday you love waking up to me as much as I love waking up to you. So from enemies, to friends, to best friends, to lovers, to fiancées, and now, finally, to husband and wife." I said
"You may now kiss the bride." The minister said
I mimicked our first kiss in where she smiled ear-to-ear and then I pulled her in for a long kiss as her hands are wrapped around my head and her hands were wrapped around my waist.
We pull away from each other and walk down the aisle hand-in-hand as everyone throws blue flower petals at us. But all we care about is each other.

oOo

I pull Jo into room 220 of the hotel that we snuck into at Bailey's wedding. I murmur as we kiss, "Why are you following me?
"I'm your intern" she says as I unzip her dress.
"Well hello intern. Do you have a name?"
"Jo Wilson."
"I dig chicks with boy names. I think its hot." I say as we fall onto our bed.
We start laughing.
"If you told me back then that I was going to marry that douche who told me I had a boy name, I would have slapped you." She said
"Alright, Princess."
"Douchebag."
"Garbage-eater."
"Asshole."
"Trash bag kid."
"Dickhead."
"Cable Car girl."
"Oh thats a new one."
"I was running out of ideas."
"I thought so."
A silence fills the air. Not an awkward silence a silence of us just laying in our bed staring at each other with loving eyes.
"Wanna do it?" I ask
"Why would we do it. That's disgusting you are like my brother. We drink beer and hang out."
"That is such a girlfriend thing."
We start kissing again.
"You know if someone would have told me that I married the girl who failed me on the first day of knowing her. I would have put you in the pysch ward."
"Hey you weren't a good teacher back then."
"Yeah I finally started being a good teacher when I fell in love with you."
That amazing silence filled the air as we stared deep into each other's eyes.
"I may mot say it enough but I love you, Alex Karev." Jo says
"I may say it too often but I love you, Jo Wilson."
"You can never say that enough." She says."
I kiss her on the lips.
"I love you."
I kiss her on the chin.
"I love you."
I kiss her on the chest.
"I love you."
Instead of growing farther down I come back up to her lips and kiss her. And we kiss for hours. And thats all that happened on our wedding night. And thats all I could ever ask for.
