This is it. The last and the biggest chapter I've ever written... It's not edited yet, but in the future, I'll take a look through both books and I'll fix their mistakes.

Enjoy and I'll speak with all of you in the end.



People started hitting their cutlery against the glasses as Matt stepped on the small stage beside the DJ. Dinner was almost ending and desert was about to be served.

(Mathew) "Good night, everyone. I hope you're having a blast because I had a lot of sleepless nights preparing this wedding."

Hannah faked a cough, yelling out the word asshole in between. Everyone laughed and he smiled.

(Mathew) "Okay, maybe I didn't. But I prepared a speech and that really gave me some sleepless nights. I had to rewrite the entire speech because I kept sneaking in a cuss word. And believe me when I tell you that you do not what to cuss in front Hannah's son. She's beat you with no remorse."

(Christian) "Amen to that." – he mumbled.

Hannah swatted Christian's thigh but he just chuckled and wrapped his arm around her back, planting it on the backrest of her chair.

(Mathew) "So my speech consists mostly of their love story and what they went through together but I thought that it would be more appealing to you and much more fun to me if I'd show you some pictures of them along the way."

(Martha) "It was my idea, by the way." – she said loud enough for everyone to hear.

They all laughed and Matt shook his head, turning to the computer beside him. He pressed the space bar and on the wall behind him started a presentation, displaying the photos Hannah and Christian had since they were born.

(Mathew) "I've know you two for thirty three and thirty years. You two have been my best friends since the moment we were born and we haven't stopped. We had some bumps along with way but it didn't break us apart."

He paused for a second and glanced behind him to see a picture of the three of them making funny faces when they were twelve and she was nine.

(Mathew) "We had a lot of good moments. When we dressed as superheroes for Halloween."

Arianna scoffed and Matt, Hannah and Christian laughed at the memory while Roberto shook his head with a disapproving expression on his face.

(Mathew) "Chris and I told Hannah that Wonder Woman could jump from high places and she would be alright. So she had the idea of going to the roof of the De Luca's house and jump, because she was dressed as Wonder Woman. She broke her arm."

(Hannah) "And my mom kick both your asses."

(Mathew) "Yeah. Elena was a mama bear. Just like that lady over there." – he pointed to Arianna.

They all laughed as she blushed lightly.

(Mathew) "Moving on... We had a lot of good times. We ate ice cream. We went to the movies. We had sleepovers. We went to the beach... We did so much the three of us. Until we started getting older and Hannah decided she wanted to be a lawyer so we kind of split up." – he then focused on her. – "Thank you by the way, you monster."

She laughed and he smirked.

(Mathew) "And that was when Christian started getting more aggressive with his moves on her. He started following her and he started doing everything he could to win her over. But she didn't want him."
