Because Mom Wasn't Enough

Sometimes things don't work out the way we planned

A/N: Finally Tony's wedding!!

Jaime's POV

I woke up in the hotel room, staring across to the other bed that Tony was sleeping in. Only, he wasn't there, to my slight disappointment. I glanced around the room and saw Tony on the phone, running his fingers through his hair. He looked stressed. After he finally hung up I went over too him.

"What's wrong Turtle?" I asked.

"The DJ's sick and can't make it." He sighed. I held his shoulders so get his attention.

"Don't worry about it. Ask Vic to sing, I'm sure he'd be happy to sing for you guys." He shook his head and looked up at me.

"Uh...Jaime, do you think y-you could sing?"

"What? Why me?" He shrugged.

"I don't know...I just think you have a more...wedding-appropriate voice. But if you don't want to that's fine, I'll just ask Vi--"

"No! No, of course I'll do it. Anything for you, Tone, I would love to sing for you guys." Tony's face brightened up and he hugged me.

"Thanks!" I hugged him back

"Yeah, no problem. Now you have to start getting ready." Tony nodded and grabbed his suit to go change into. I changed into mine and fixed my hair. I felt to honored that Tony had asked me to be his best man, I just didn't want to do anything to stress him out further, I really care about him. Tony came out of the bathroom, and let me say, he looks great in a suit. But he didn't look any better than when he went in there; infact, he looked even more paranoid.

"It doesn't match!"

"What?"

"The suit! They messed it up!"

"Tony, you look great, what's wrong with the--"

"The buttons! They were supposed to give me a white shirt with black buttons and a black tie with blue stripes! But instead they sent me a white shirt with blue bottons and a blue tie with black stripes! It clashes and Jessica's going to hate me she's going to see me and puke all over me because I screwed up her wedding day!" I gripped Tony's shoulders once again and stared at him.

"Tony. You look amazing, and it doesn't clash. If anything, I think you look better! It's impossible for you to look bad, don't worry about anything okay?" He took a deep breath and nodded. I smiled and then heard a knock on the door. I went to open it as Tony dove behind the bed muttering something about not seeing the bride before the wedding. I swung it open to reveal Vic and Mike.

"Oh, hey guys what's up?" I stepped aside and let them in.

"Hey, where is the groom?" Vic asked, glancing around the room.

"In the bathroom." Mike said in a sing-song voice. They chuckled and turned to me. I motioned towards the bed.

"Behing the bed."

"Why is he there?" Mike sang again.

"Because he lost his head. Hey Tony, come on out it's just the guys." Tony popped his head out grinning.

"Good!" He said. "I thought it was my bride."

"All dressed in whi--"

"Shut up Mike!" Vic ordered. "Hey, Tony, how are you doing?" Tony stood up and walked up to us, much calmer now.

"Alright now, thanks to Jaime." He motioned to me. "Where were you guys?"

"We just went up to see Jessica. She's really excited, but I think Jo needs help...she's not good with gushy feelings and shit." Vic said. "That's why we left." We laughed and I put I hand on his shoulder.

"I'll go check on her if you're alright without me Tony." He smiled.

"Yeah, I'm okay now. Go help Jo. Just be ready in...AN HOUR!?" He shouted looking at his watch. I decided to leave before Tony freaked out again. I knocked on Jessica and Jo's door and it swung open almost immediately to reveal a very distraught Jo.

"Help me!?" She said. She gripped my wrist and yanked me in and shoved me towards Jessica, who was either really excited or super nervous.

"Jaime! Oh, how's Tony? I know he was really nervous about this, which is making me nervous. I hope he doesn't mess this up, it's so important to me." She started. Wow, not what I was expecting. "Look at me, that's so selfish! I really do love him, it's just, I've always dreamt of a perfect wedding." Okay, sounds more like her.

"Don't worry, Vic and Mike are taking good care of him for you. Oh! Tony also wanted me to tell you how much he loves you."

"Aww, that was sweet of him. Hey, can you zip me up?" She asked, motioning to her dress. I nodded and pulled the zipper up. She turned towards me and I saw her dress for the first time. She looked beautiful, and her hair and make-up were both done to perfection. I can see why Tony's marrying her... "How do I look?" I was at a loss for words.

"You're, I mean, you look, it's all--" I sighed. "Tony's a lucky guy." She smiled in satisfaction to my answer and embraced me in a hug.

"Thank you Jaime, you are a great friend of Tony's and I appreciate all you've helped him with."

"Like you said, he's my best friend. I'd do anything for him. Oh, my gosh! We have to go!" I said as I gave her one last hug before saying good bye and dragging Jo out of the room. We ran over to the church where Jo took her seat and I took my place in the back with Mike and Vic who were also all spiffied up. Tony came over a minute later and we all started parading down the aisle in our assigned order, the bride's maids along side us. Then Jessica walked down as slow as ever and Tony froze as he stared at her. She came to the front and the priest started to speak.

"Please, join hands. We are here today to join Anthony Perry, and Jessica Walsh in holy matrimony." He continued on for a few minutes before addressing me. "May we have the rings?" I held out he pillow which held the ring Tony would give Jessica. He took it shakily. "Do you Jessica take Anthony to be your lawfully wedded husband? To have and to hold? In sickness, and in health? Till death do you part?"

"I do." She said as she slid the ring on Tony's finger.

"Do you Anthony take Jessica to be your lawfully wedded wife? To have and to hold? In sickness, and in health? Till death do you part?"

"I...do." He said quietly. I barely heard him and I was right next to him.

"If anyone has a valid reason why these two should not be unified under the eyes of God, speak now or forever hold your peace." Said the priest. Tony glanced around, and I saw him look at me for a second before his eyes fell back on Jessica. "If no one objects, then I now pronounce you--"

"No."
