*FINAL CHAPTER*

6 MONTHS LATER

TONY

"Do I look alright guys?"

I stand in front of the mirror in one of the church rooms staring at my reflection, it felt odd being all dressed up but today was my wedding day. I was marrying one of my bandmates and best friends Mike Fuentes. Maybe I was nervous, yes I was nervous and excited at the same time.

"If I swung for your team Tony I'd marry you. Lily tell your daddy he's hot."

Lily appears behind Jaime's legs smiling a big toothy smile. She looked so cute in the white lace dress the girls bought her, with her hair braided and wearing a white flower crown to match her dress.

"You look nice daddy. Dads going to cry when he sees you."

"Thank you panda, now can you give daddy a twirl so we can see your beautiful dress."

My little Lily giggles and twirls on the spot while Jaime films on his phone. Today was all about making mine, Mike's and Lily's family real. No one or nothing could come between the three of us.

"I'm going to see dad, see you soon daddy."

She skips out of the room still giggling. I go back to staring at myself in the mirror while Jaime starts fussing over me, more like a maid of honour than a best man.

MIKE

"Are you excited about today Mike? I'm so happy you've finally found your forever happiness."

Vic finishes making my bow tie look good before looking at me with brotherly pride. Our family always assumed Vic would marry first but now he had a second chance of happiness with Lucy.

"I'm marrying my best friend Vic, of course, I'm happy."

"Dad, you look very nice in your suit."

Turning around I crouch down and Lily walks into my arms, I kiss her forehead and smile.

"You look like a princess Lily. How's daddy?"

Lily giggles, "Daddy also looks nice. Now you go and get married so I can play my role."

Behind me Vic snorts, Lily was taking her flower girl role very seriously.

"Okay panda lets go and get me and daddy married. Now, where's your basket?"

Lily's eyes widen, "I think Lucy has it, dad."

I release her and she runs out of the room nearly tripping over own feet. My little girl was freaking adorable.

"Time to get married little brother."

Vic opens the door and the two of us walk out just as Tony and Jaime walk out of the room opposite us. Tony looked stunning, I wanted to take him right here and now but that would be inappropriate.

"Shall we do this Mike?"

I nod, "let's get married turtle."

We stand outside the double doors with all our friends and family waiting on the other side.

"Go ahead, Lily."

Tony nudges Lily who picks up her flower basket and starts to walk down the aisle; everyone stands up as Lily scatters rose petals. Tony squeezes my hand. The two of us then walk down the aisle, everyone smiles and awes at us.

~Vows~

"Now Mike and Tony are going to share the vows they've written for each other. Mike, would you like to go first?"

I take out my vows and clear my throat before looking Tony in the eyes.

"Tony I choose you again and again. At the start and finish of every single day. No matter the season, no matter the year. I choose you to struggle and succeed with, to fight and make up with, to love and grow old with. I choose you knowing there are still trails we must travel. Knowing there are mountains left to climb. I choose you to always be by my side and me by yours until our last day on earth."

Tony tears up a little before taking his vows from inside his suit jacket.

"Mike, I promise to remember that neither of us are perfect. But strive to remind myself of the ways we are perfect for each other. And even though sometimes I'm unsure about most things in life, I am certain that I love you and can't wait to make our little family whole. And I will continue to love you forever."

I dare a glance at Lily who had tears in her eyes, they really were beautiful vows.

"I now pronounce you husband and husband. You may kiss each other."

I didn't need to be told twice before swooping in and kissing Tony roughly but passionately, Tony kisses me back but quickly allows me to take control.

~Reception~

LILY

"Dance with me, daddy."

"Alright panda."

I drag Tony onto the dance floor and he lets me stand on his shoes, he starts to dance while twirling me around.

"May I cut in please?"

"You can dad, just don't squish me."

Mike laughs and somehow the three of us manage to waltz around the dance floor while everyone around us gets their phones out and start to film our happy little family. If Mike and Tony hadn't come to the orphanage I'd still be miserable and semi-mute, but they'd shown me love and been the family I always dreamed of having one day.
