This isn't what I want

chapter 63

** THE WEDDING **

** JJ's POV **

"Emily, I'm so nervous. What if Reid says no, or I say something?" I worry as she helps me with my hair and makeup.

"Jaydge, calm down. You've loved each other for a very long time, nothing has changed that. You'll be fine." Emily reassures me.

Rossi has truly gone overboard with the decorating. Gold and silver streaming everywhere, a large fountain, and a four tier chocolate and strawberry cake. There's a large marquee with gold balloons and a large chocolate fountain. I haven't seen Reid all day. I'm ever-so supersticious and don't want to ruin anything. It's going to be the happiest day of my life.

** Reid's POV **

"You nervous, kiddo?" Rossi asks me as he straightens my tie.

"Only if she doesn't come out." I answer with a nervous laugh.

"You know she will. You've loved each other for a very long time, nothing has changed that. You'll be fine." He replies, and I know he's right.

All the guests are seated and we're just waiting on the bride and her bridesmaid. Suddenly, I hear the wheels of Emily's wheelchair, and the audience are getting to their feet.

She's so gorgeous. JJ's dress hugs her in the right places, and her eyes are so bright and happy. Her lips are a soft peachy pink and I just want to kiss her right and then. But I let her reach me and the priest, and I settle for interlocking fingers.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are gathered here today to celebrate the joining of this man and this woman together in holy matrimony." He begins, and I can't help but beam.

** JJ's POV **

"I believe you've prepared your own vows? After you." The priest encourages me, and I turn to face Spence.

"Spence, I have always loved you. Ever since that first moment when I accidently bumped into you and managed to spill coffee down your jumper. You have always looked out for me, even more so in these past few years. I want to do the same for you, to look after you, and to love you forever. You've changed me in so many ways, and made me a better person. You made me realised that there is always a bright side to everything. And you are that bright side." I say, and I can see tears forming in his eyes, but he blinks them away.

** Reid's POV **

It's my turn, and I decide to ignore the cards that I prepared. Somehow, I don't think what I've prepared will mean what I want it to.

"Wow, Jennifer Jareau, you caught my eye the first day you walked into the Bureau. You always put everyone above yourself, and pour yourself into everything you do. I love everything about you, and will do anything and everything to keep you safe. I wouldn't be able to live without you ever, and you've made me realise that there's more to life than technical books and statistics. There's love and companionship. There's you."

She smiles so widely I can see how much this means to her. It means the same to me.

"I now declare you husband and wife, you may kiss the bride." The priest says, and I pull her into a passionate kiss.

"I love you so much, Jennifer Jareau-Reid." I say.

"I love you more, Spencer Reid." She replies.
