"We're gonna be late!" Madi runs down and jumps on my back. Today was our rehearsal dinner. Tomorrow,we were finally getting married. "Run Harry!" She laughs as I grab a banana from the bowl. I take off down the stairs, Madi reaching down the stairs to grab my shoes on the way out. I swing the back door of my car open and drop her in. "Just go!" She screams as I turn the key. The radio blasts Somebody To Love by Queen through the speakers.

"Seatbelt!" I yell back and she laughs. I round a corner and she slides next to me. We were really acting like maniacs. Neither one of us could wait to get married the year engagement seemed to take forever. It was finally here. She wraps her legs around me and I pull her out of the car when we get to the church. "We aren't late by much. Ten minutes isn't bad." I wink and she rides in on my back again. She leaves little kisses on my jaw bone as I set her down in the the aisle. I wrap my arms around her and kiss her lips. We were alone anyway. My fingertips find her jawline as she deepens the kiss. "I love you Mrs. Styles." I whisper.

"Um not quite yet." Louis says as he walks in with Eleanor. She held a clipboard in her hand with lists of everything. She helped Madi with this huge affair. The wedding wouldn't be that big if Eleanor didn't help. She talked Madi into spending and inviting more. Cause your first marriage only happens once. "Where do I put these?" He asks holding some flowers.

"Give me this." Eleanor takes them and sets them at the front of the church. "You two just sit." She shoves me a little as she walks past me. I roll my eyes a little bit and pull Madi down next to me. Soon enough the church is flooded with Eleanor's team of decorators. Nothing big really, Niall's parents, Danielle, Gemma, Louis and Liam's sisters and some professionals. "Gem that goes over there.... To the right. To far. Left. Now back to right. I'll do it myself." She comes up to her and puts a ribbon on the end of the pew. She leaves some McKay and Styles family reserved signs in the front. I know Madi's parents won't make plans to come to the wedding but who knows. They might surprise us.

"Wow Madi. We're gonna be standing up there tomorrow." I say and wrap my arm around her." She rests her head on my shoulder. For a moment, I can feel her breath on my hand as he leaves a soft kiss. "Mr. and Mrs. Styles. Imagine that." She smiles. "I love you so much."

"I love you too mister." She says just as Eleanor pulls us up.

"The piano players here. Get to the end of the church. Harry you stand up there!" She pushes me to the end of the aisle, as Madi walks to the other end. I blow a kiss and she giggles lightly, just to receive a glare from Eleanor. The piano begins to play and Eleanor walks up with Louis. "Now walk just that pace Gem. Too fast. One foot in front of the other."

"She's a little demanding eh?" I whisper to Louis. "It's not her wedding."

"I know, just be happy she's helping you two." He says just as Madi starts walking towards me. I honestly can't believe I'm marrying such a perfect girl. "You okay Har?" Louis looks over at me.

"I'm getting married tomorrow." I take a deep breath and smile.

An hour later, we finally are able to walk out. Off to our dinner, I was starving. Madi held my hand as I pulled her close. "Are you ready?" I ask and she smiles. "Are you hungry? I know I am." I kiss her. We pull into the restaurant our dinner was at. I didn't know this, but Eleanor had basically invited everyone.

"Right this way Mr Styles." A waitress says and leads us to the back room. She opens the door to a large room full of people. Some, I didn't even know.

"Aw my little Harry is getting married." My mom hugs me tight. "I can't believe it Harry." She kisses my cheek. "I give you permission to spank him whenever he talks back and doesn't do the dishes." She says to Madi.

"I will Anne." She laughs. "I'll keep him in line." I wrap my arm around her just for Phoebe to run up and hug the two of us. "I haven't seen you in forever Pheebs!" Madi leans down to be more her height. "You've grown a lot since last year!" I love Madi's relationship with all the girls. She's great with Louis' sisters. She goes out with Ruth once and a while. She fits in perfectly.

"It's time to eat babe..." I say softly in her ear.

"Would you like to sit by us Pheebs?" Madi asks and she nods excitedly. The room is full and all the seats are taken once we finally get our food. It's been a long day. "Do like your food?" She asks both of us. Once our plates are cleared, everyone's on their feet again. "Oh Harry, this is my Aunt Coraline. The only one from that side that still loves me. Aunt Coraline, this is my fiancé Harry."

"Hi there." I smile and shake her hand. I haven't really met a lot of Madi's family, obviously. "It's a pleasure to meet you."

"Are you excited? Nervous yet?" She asks Madi.

"Just a little bit, I'm scared I'll like wake up tomorrow puking or forget to say I do." I shake my head as Madi talks.

"That won't happen." I laugh and kiss her. "You'll be fine. If anyone messes up, it'll be me." I hold her against my hips close to me as different family members come up to each of us. My mom comes back up to us and hugs the two of us.

"How long will it be until I get another grandkid?" She asks and smiles. Madi sighs deeply and turns away from my mom. She still wasn't okay with the whole baby talk. Most couples are frequently asked that when they're about to get married. But most couples already haven't lost a baby. "I'm sorry Madi. I shouldn't have brought it up."

"It's alright mum. We should be getting home anyway." She hugs me one last time and I look around the room for Louis, who has my car keys. I lead Madi through the crowd and walk up to Louis who's talking with his mom. "We're heading home." I say and put my hand out for the keys.

"Oh not with her you're not." Eleanor says. "You're going home with us. You know that it's not good luck to sleep with the bride the night before the wedding." I sigh and just stare blatantly at Eleanor then share glances with Lou. "Don't give me that look Harold."

"Listen, I just wanna get to bed." I shake my head and look down at Madi. "We'll be in the parking lot." I turn away and we walk out. "I guess I won't be seeing anymore of you until tomorrow then." I look down at her and hold her close. "I was looking forward to a relaxing evening." I kiss her.

"It was a nice night har." She smiles. "It'll be worth it. One night apart won't kill us." I shake my head as Louis walks up to us and I let go of her.

"Wait, come here.. Closer." I lean down and get closer to her ear. "Put on some fuzzy socks so you don't get cold feet." She giggles a little and I get in the back of Louis' car. "I mean it babe. I'll meet you at the end of the aisle tomorrow at four."

"I'll be the one in white." She smiles again and Louis shuts my door.

"Damn... You two are just so in love. I should have got you more drunk at the bachelor party." Louis says as he shuts his driver door.

"Louis, you like her. Don't lie." I look out the window as we drive off.

"Well, yeah I think she's hot. But, I think you took this really fast." We make eye contact through the mirror.

"It's been more than a year. And how can I not marry a girl I almost had a baby with?" I ask and look down at my phone. "Oh, and don't look at my fiancé that way."

"Easy. Dump her." He turns into his driveway and parks.

"Harsh. She does have feelings Louis." I get out and follow him to the door.

"Of course she has feelings. She's raging with hormones. She's a girl. Is she happy? Oh wait now she's crying. Wait, she's angry now." He throws his hands all around.

"Louis... She's not that bad." I throw myself on the couch and keep to myself for the rest of the night. To be honest, I was nervous. I love Madi and I've been looking forward to this wedding for a while. I just hope it all goes over good.
