I Promise You

(63) Flash Foward and We're Taking On The World Together

Finally it was summer and it also was the day before my wedding. The hardest part about it was not the perfect location, the perfect cake or the perfect dress. It was the perfect maid of honor. Usually women take either their sister or their best friend. In my case my best friends are my sisters. I listened to the arguments of both girls and talked a lot about it with Jesse, but I couldn't choose.

So I took both.

I made Evie and Ronnie co-maid of honors. They were so thrilled about it.  Same way I dealt with my other problem. The walking down the aisle and giving away part. I know, normally the father does that job, but I didn't want to be like anybody else. I had decided that both my parents will give me away. I need both of them there and not just my father.

For my Bachelorette party we stayed home at mine. My dad and brother were at Jesse's bachelor party. Since there wasn't much of normal bachelor party stuff you could do when you are 18 and under Cale could go.

"How does it feel to be a teenage bride?" Cindra asked. I couldn't stop smiling "Amazing" I said and turned to my mom "Thanks for allowing us to get married before I turn 18" I said and hugged her. "No problem. I felt the same way about Ryder, just that a wedding would have made things a lot more complicated" Mom said and aunt Tiffany groaned "I apologized for that!" She said and I couldn't help but laugh. "Sometimes a mean girl is just a broken girl letting out a cry for help" Lennon said and I smiled and took her hand "Might have taken me some time, but I finally heard you" I said. "And I'm thankful for that. Turned out all in needed was my father" She said and I looked at my mom. "It's okay Promise. I know my husband comes with a history, but I would be the right wife if I couldn't accept that. Everything is fine" She said. "But somehow I always knew you were going to end up with a British guy" Ronnie said "Something always drawed you there"

The next day couldn't sooner enough, but I could have skipped the feeling like I was going to puke any second because of excitement.

"It's gonna be fine" My mom tried to calm me down "You'll get over the anxiety once you see him stand up there waiting for you" She said, having her hands on my shoulder to comfort me. She then pulled me into a hug. "Liv! You know I love you, but don't ruin my bride!" Evie said and mom took her hands off of me and rose them in defense. "And I'm bridezilla?" I asked, turning around to Asher. "Okay, I think Evie will be worse"

A few minutes later I was sitting on the couch, close to tears and totally scared. "I don't know what else to do" My mom said and leaned against the wall. "I need Lars!" I said and Evie and Ronnie immediately took off to get him.

"We need Lars!" I said as we stood there in the door, talking to Brandon. "No can do. He's with Jesse!" He said, crossing his arms. "You know Promise and if you don't want to meet me freaking out, you better hand over Lars!" I told him, while he only laughed "You seriously think I'm scared of you little sister?" He asked, still not taking me serious. "B, I would hand over Lars before you completely provoked her. Not without reason most of the students and some professors at NYU are scares of her" Ronnie said and Brandon sighed and went into the room "Your sister needs you!" He said. "Which one?" I heard Lars ask. "The one about to get married" I yelled. "Is everything okay with her?" Jesse asked worried.

"She's fine, but she wants to talk to Lars. You know how she is" I said, pulled Lars out of the room and started dragging towards the room Promise is waiting in. "Where is the emergency?" Lars asked and I pointed at our sister that was still sitting on the same spot on the couch as we left.

I looked up and saw Lars. I got up and hugged him "Do you really think I'm doing the right thing?" I asked him. "Yes, you are! Do you really think I would let Jesse marry you when I thought he's bad news. Everything will be great and amazing and better than you have ever imagined" Lars said and I nod "You're right" I said and released a breath I didn't know I was holding. "I know I'm right. That's why I'm the wise one" He said and gave me one last squeeze, before walking to the door "Now that I calmed you down, I have a groom that needs some calming down, because someone scared him" He said and Evie looked at him "Sorry" She said in her innocent voice.
