~*5 months later*~
It was the day of the wedding and boy, was I nervous. Sally and Clockwork were finishing up my hair and makeup while Trenderman was putting the finishing touches on my dress. Amelia was holding Aviana, one of the girls she just recently had. It turns out she had been carrying twins! Two girls, Elora and Aviana. They are so adorable!
"There! All done! Go look in the mirror, Celeste! I think you'll like how good we did!" I hear Sally exclaim. I giggle and look at Trenderman to see if he was finished. He looks up towards me and stands while nodding, seemingly proud of his work. I smile and walk my 8 month pregnant self to the mirror. I look at myself and my jaw drops. I look amazing!(this is the Bride's Maid Outfit)
(See picture in beginning!)
"Wow...you all outdid yourselves...thank you so much!" I say, turning to the four. They all smile in return. Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.
"It's Jeff, are you all ready? The wedding's about to start! And Amy, Elora needs a diaper change and you have the diaper bag..." I hear Amelia giggle lightly, before walking to the door and opening it to reveal Jeff holding Elora. She hands Sally Aviana and shuffles through the diaper bag next to the door, then pulling out the wipes and a diaper. She hands the items to Jeff and kisses him on the cheek, earning a smile from him.
"Alright, let's go!"
~*Slenderman's POV*~
As the music started up, I see Celeste walking down the pathway into the garden in a beautiful white dress that made her look absolutely stunning. I was in awe. I smile as she reaches me and whisper to her quietly, "You look beautiful..." She smiles and mutters, "Thank you."
As it came time to exchange rings, we all watch as Sally came down with the rings. I take Celeste's ring and say, "I know I have said before that I love you with all I am, all I have been, and all I ever shall be - with all my heart and soul- and now I offer my proof. This ring is the offering of my being- all my heart and soul and health. All I have and all I ever will have.It is yours as I am yours - as I always have been yours and will be yours. I love you with all of my being. I love you enough to set aside all my promises, all my swears, all my bitterness, and take instead the one thing I have seen ruin so many- the thing that is as dangerous in my eyes as it is beautiful. And last of all, the hope that maybe it really is possible for two people to find a happily ever after in their own stories." I finish, smiling to no end. Then Celeste takes my ring and says, "This is the point in the ceremony where we usually talk about the wedding bands being a perfect circle, with no beginning and no end. But we all know that these rings do have a beginning. Rock is dug up from the earth. Metal is liquefied in a furnace at a thousand degrees, then molded, cooled, and painstakingly polished. Something beautiful is made from raw elements. Love is like that. It's hot, dirty work. It comes from humble beginnings, made by imperfect beings. It's the process of making something beautiful where there was once nothing at all. This ring is my promise to accept your imperfections and recognize your beauty." I feel my heart swell with love for her as she recites those words to me.
"With that being said, I now pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss the bride!" I then pull Celeste closer to me and plant my lips upon hers, pouring all of my love into the kiss as the crowd cheers and claps for us both.
