So I felt bad for not giving y'all an Epilogue and people kept asking for an Epilogue and I really didn't want to be like five years later or two months later, so I just did a Bonus Chapter of the wedding day. It's either going to be split up into two or three parts. Not sure yet. Hope you all had a great Sunday. 😂 Enjoy.
BC - The Wedding
"Thomas, stop touching that." Kaitlyn repeated for the thousandth time. She was already worried that the dress wouldn't last through the ceremony, and Thomas poking at the broken clasp every five seconds wasn't helping. She slapped his hand away.
"What did I just say?"
He pulled his hand back like it had been burned. "I was just trying to make sure that it didn't come unloose again. If you ask me you should've gotten another one before we got here."
"Well, the last time I checked I didn't ask, so come here so you can help me put this ribbon in my hair."
He reluctantly stood up. "I don't see why you need the ribbon anyways. Jack won't care if you get all fancy, this is a Vegas wedding anyways."
"Just put the ribbon in before I find something more useful to do with it." She threatened as he weaved the blue ribbon through her straightened black hair.
"Tada," he said proudly, motioning to her beautifully bedazzled braid in the mirror. "Don't you look cute."
She slowly reached up to touch her hair, not truly believing that this day was happening. A tear slipped down her cheek.
"Oh no you don't," Thomas said awkwardly, "Why are you crying? You shouldn't be crying. Today is a happy day."
Kaitlyn wiped the tear from her face. "I know. I'm just overly emotional, maybe I just need something to drink." She said walking over to the small minibar. Thomas darted in front of the fridge.
"Drinking doesn't sound like a good idea. You're getting married in an hour, Jack would kill me if I let you show up wasted."
She rolled her eyes, pushing him out of the way. "It's just one drink, it's not like I'm going to get drunk if I just take one little sip."
Thomas sighed down at her. "Just one?"
She crossed her hands over her heart. "I promise."

An hour later.
"What do you mean you lost her?" Jack demanded, his fist only seconds away from pounding Thomas's pretty face.
Thomas looked down at Jack's grip on the front of his tuxedo and then back the the man in question. "Haha," he laughed awkwardly, "You see.."
"Which you won't being doing much of after Jack's done with you." Lee pipped in.
He glared at the man laying casually against the preachers pew. "Shut up." He said before returning back to Jack. If looks could kill he would've already been six feet under.
"Like I was saying, I only let her take a little sip.." he started when noticed Jack's fist inching closer, "Okay! Okay! She drank the whole bottle, but I tried to stop her. Plus, when she finished she didn't even look that drunk. What drunk person has a whole coherent conversation about taxes and condos in Manhattan?" He defended himself.
Jack let him go, causing him to stumble back into the wall. He ran a hand through his hair looking over to Dane and Lee. "Any ideas?"
"Beats me." Dane shrugged.
"Maybe we should split up." Lee offered. Jack nodded.
"Sounds good. Me and Lee will go search around the hotel while you and Thomas check the casino." He pointed to Dane.
"Why do I have to go with the guy who has a death wish?" He whined.
Jack pushed his cellphone into his pocket. "Because I'll end up hurting him if I do."
Dane shot his eyes to Lee. "And why can't you go with Thomas instead?"
Lee shrugged, "That's like asking me to knowingly drink a bottle filled with poison, when I know it'll end up getting me killed." He said as he followed Jack out of the room.
Dane stared after them, a frown appearing on his face. "What..that didn't even make any sense." He muttered before turning to Thomas. "For all that is good and holy, please just keep your mouth shut while we're in the casino. Don't talk to anybody. Heck, don't even look at anybody." Dane practically begged. "Do you understand what I'm saying?"
Thomas rolled his eyes. "Yeah, I got it. Don't talk to anyone. Find Kaitlyn and get out without causing a scene." He confirmed, heading towards the door.
Dane rubbed his aching head.
"Let's just hope you don't do anything stupid." Dane whispered to himself, following his friend into the crowded casino.
