My Dearest | JANTHONY

Chapter 49

8 months later
Today's the day I have been dreaming about since I was 8 years old. Since I dressed up in Disney princess costumes and sang their songs around the house. Since I thought middle school was the worst time of my life.

My wedding day.

Its always as I had imagined it. The love of my life, my best friends attending, and everything seems to be running smoothly.

I'm still performing in Hamilton, and it's mostly the same people. Except Jonathan, Lin, Pippa, Leslie, and Daveed all left. We miss them, but we still have fun everyday.

Pippa and Renee are my maids of honor. I could never choose between them. My ither bridesmaids include Leslie's wife Nicolette, 3 of my cousins from England, and Venessa. They all are bery close to me, and I didn't hesitate to choose who my bridesmaids were going to be.

It's about an hour until I have to walk down the asile, and more and more people start arriving. I start to get nervous, my palms sweating and knees shaking. Renee notices, pulls me over and whispers, "What's wrong, Jas?"

I sigh, "I'm just nervous, ya know? Pre wedding day jitters I suppose." She pulls me into a warm hug, "Don't worry, everythings gonna be fine." "Thank you." I say, pulling away.

I continue getting ready, with my mom sobbing, Pippa squealing, and Renee calming her down.

Only an hour away.

Anthony POV
It's finally happening. I'm finally marrying Jasmine. It's long overdue, to be honest. But I always somehow screwed up our relationship, and she always took me back. Man, I love her. I'm promising myself I won't cry when I see her walking down the asile, because I know she's gonna look amazing.

My best man is Lin. Everyone expected me to choose Daveed or Oak, but Lin had done so much for me, he seemed like an obvious choice. Afterall, he's the reason I even met Jas, and she even took me back.

I slip on the black jacket, finishing off the tux. I stare in the mirror. My hair is pulled back, like I'm doing a show almost. This is it. My dad puts his hands on my shoulder and says, "I'm so proud of you." I smile and say, "Thanks, Pops." He pats my back, and walks away.

A little bit later, Lin does the same thing and says in a jokingly loud voice, "Technically your my son too, kid. So my advice is to not blow it."  Everyone laughs along with me, loosening my nerves.

Jasmine POV
It's time for me to go out there, and I'm a wreck. Anthony and I haven't seen each other yet, since it's kinda a tradition, and I'm just si excited to see him. I stand behind the doors of the church, when my dad walks over. He gives me a huge hug, and his voice cracking, says, "Jasmine, this is the day I've been dreading since the day you were born. But, at least you found a good guy."

I laugh and say, "I love you, dad." We pull away, as someone signals us to walk down the asile. I take a deep breath, and grab my dad's arm. The doors open and we start walking. I take one look at Anthony, and teats start welling up in his eyes. He doesn't actually cry, though. I bet he made a promise to himself, that boy. Apparently Lin didn't, cause he's sobbing, causing some to laugh, including me.

Pippa and Renee start crying, along with my mom. We make it to the end of the asile, and my dad kisses me on the forehead. Anthony gives him a quick hug, and takes me to the alter.

"Man, you look more beautiful than I ever imagined." He whispers. I smile at him and respond with a simple, "You too."

The preist begins his speech, and we say our vows. Anthony's was ten times better than mine, I have to admit. Soon, I hear, "Do you. Jasmine, take Anthony to be your lawfully wedded husband?"

"I do."

"Do you, Anthony, take Jasmine to be your lawfully wedded wife."

"I do."

"You may now kiss your bride."

When we pull in for the kiss, it flashes me back to opening night. The first time we kissed, and when our lips touch, it has the same fireworks feeling.

I'm married!

Everyone cheers, and I hear above all else, Andrew almost scream, "That's my girl! Go queen!" I laugh, and we run down the asile out the door.

******

It's now hours later, late at night, and all of us are dancing to Broadway music, rap music, and any other kind we can think of.

When 'I'm Still Standing' by Elton John comes on, Anthony and I look staright at each other and start dancing like lunatics, as we let the beat take us away. I may be a little drunk, but whatever it's my wedding night.

After a few songs, a few laughs, a few dances, the final song comes on, and it's 'You are in Love' by Taylor Swift. It may come as a shcok but I'm no stranger to T-Swiz. I love her! Anthony and I slow dance, leaning our foreheads against each others, as we whisper at the same time,

"I love you."
