STEF'S POV:

a week had passed and things had become more and more easier to bare. Monte was sentenced a very long time behind bars and Gretchen was released and returned to Paris. Things had just started turning back to the norm for us.

We decided to invite family over. My mom, Lena's mom, Lena's dad, her brother. I even invited my dad although he wasn't ok with my sexuality so I told him if he cannot support my choices and decision then he was not to come, so we will see what he decides. The ball is in his court.

"Are we almost ready?" I asked as Lena finished cooking the brunch and setting the table before everyone arrived.

"I think so" she said as the door knocked, I headed over to the door opening widely and greeting my mother who had arrived first. Soon followed by Lena's family.

We all sat at the dining room table discussing the wedding. It was finally happening, she was about to become my other half.

"So, we was thinking Stewart, could you be the solemniser?" We asked as we seen honour rush to his heart.

He placed his hand on his heart and the other on Lena's hand. "I'd be delighted"

"And we decided..." Lena began to talk placing her hand in mine shooting her smiling eyes at mine. "That we'd like the strongest women in our lives to walk us down the isle. This wedding is finally accepted. The love between women are strong than ever, so we want the women we love most to walk us down" Lena carried on as she looked back and forth between Dana and Sharon.

Both our parent cried uncontrollably nodding indicating a 'yes'.

"What about flowers, decorations, reception and outfits?" My mother asked. "You are wearing a dress right Stefanie?"

"No, I'm wearing pants" I said looking up from the table into her eyes.

"Stefanie..."

"MOM!..." I said with my voice a little higher than usual shooting a look at her saying that she will not win this fight even if she tried. I watched as she sighed heavily.

"Let us take care of flowers and decorations and the reception could be at the beach, so romantic" Dana said as me and Lena looked at each other in agreement.

"Ok, sure" we agreed to let both our parents take care of the flowers although this may be something we'll regret.

LENA'S POV:

finally, this was all happening. We have had so many step backs and I was bored of feeling low, we was about to promise our lives to one another and I'm so excited to do so. I watch as Stef heads upstairs to get dressed as her mother follows. I gathered she was trying her hardest to persuade Stef to wear a dress.

I sat beside my mother as she began flipping through wedding magazines at dresses. I still had to buy one.

"That's pretty" I said pointing to a beautiful fish tale lace wedding dress in a magazine.

"Why don't we go and try some on today, I'll pay half" my mother said taking hold of my hand. She's always been excited for me to get to married.

"Erm_ok sure. I'll go get dressed" I said rising from the table and heading upstairs, I entered the room as Sharon left.

I seen my wife to be laying on the bed with her head buried in her arms. I could sense her distress.

"Everything ok?" I ask sitting beside her with my hand on her thigh.

"My mother is a pain in the ass" she muttered back into her arms.

"She's trying to get you to wear a dress still?"

"Yep" she replies with frustration. "It's our wedding. We wear what we want, I've already said she can take care of decorations, which by the way me and my mother are going shopping to get today"

"Ok, I'm going shopping for a dress" I replied. "I can't wait for the day to say I love you Mrs Adams- Foster" I whispered leaning back pulling her arms out of her face and kissing her lips softly as she moaned.

I had finish getting dressed and I threw my bag onto my shoulder heading downstairs to my mother. I said goodbye as Stef and Sharon finished getting g ready for their day out. This was going to be a day I'd never forget. The day she becomes a part of me and the day I become a part of her. Together we become a part of each other.

We went to a shop in town called "bride gowns" and walked in. We each flicked through the hangers looking at each and every dress. I needed this wedding to be perfect, which required the perfect dress. No, no, no, ooo. I stopped at a dress had become very fond of. It was drop dead gorgeous. Off the shoulder, sweetheart shape, tightly fitted fishtail lace with a long train behind. It was perfect. Just like the one in the magazine. I hooked it over the arm and walked into the dressing room with my mother had taken a seat waiting for me to try it on.

I remained still as the assistant tied the corset tighter capturing every perfection of my figure. I loved it, my curves, my chest, the slit in the leg giving sight as I walk. It was THE dress. I walked out to my mother as she gasps and loses her breath. She covers her mouth with her hand and wiped her eyes with the tissue she had prepared in her hand.

"What do you think?" I said as i lifted the bottom standing on the 'stage' provided in front of the mirror.

"Oh sweetie...I-I love it, you look amazing" she barely managed to say as the tears took over. She stood up and walked over to me. "Most important what do you think?" She asked me.

"I think, it's THE dress. I love it"I said as tears begin to circulate my pupils.

"Give me a spin" she replied. I spun around as she asked watching the long trail on the floor behind me spin as I turned. "Can we try a vale?" My mother asked the shop owner as she brought out a beautiful long white vale with diamonds around the edge and stitched lace hearts. This all became so surreal, I was about to marry the love of my life. I smiled at her uncontrollably.

"How much for both of these?" She asked the shop owner.

"£1,500 for the dress and £200 for the vale" she replied. I started to pull out my purse until my mother grabbed my hand stopping me.

"Your my only daughter and the only wedding I'll be able to do this. I'll get it" She said pulling her credit card out of her purse and handing it to the women.

"I love you" I said before heading back to the changing room to bag up my dress and take it home.
