(Just fyi I've never been to a wedding - well, I did when I was 3, but that's not the point! Basically, I have no idea what happens at one, so I'm just basing this on the tv shows: Sherlock, and Friends)
Phil's POV
"You have had an hour of being Mrs Lester, how do you feel?" I asked Clara, jokily. We were all now sat together, having dinner before the party. It was time for the best man's speech, I could feel the worry being emitted from Dan's skin.
He stood up, coughed and began. "Hello everyone. I am Dan Howell, Phil's best man and friend. I think that Phil is making a huge mistake by making me say this speech, so blame everything that goes wrong on him." There were a few chuckles from around the room. "I met Phil 4 years ago and he turned my life around. He was definitely one of the best things to ever happen to me, and, I'm sure Clara will agree, when I say that he's done the same for her. This man is the most genuinely kind and considerate guy I've ever known. Clara's parents you have no need to worry, I couldn't imagine her being in safer hands. It's thanks to Phil that I have my own radio show, although I do miss the two years where we had one together. It's thanks to Phil, that I got my life back on track and it's thanks to Phil, that I am the man standing before you. We have been through a lot together, and I am so proud to call you my best friend, but, you will honestly always feel like more of a brother to me. Phil. Clara. I wish you both the most happiness you could ever imagine. You both deserve it. Congratulations and thank you."
Everyone clapped and Dan sat down. I pulled him back up to a standing position and we hugged. "Thanks Danmander" I smiled at him. He coughed in a manly way.
"No worries, Philachu. We're never going to be too old for Pokemon, are we?"
"Never!" I agreed. We sat down and Clara leaned over me and held Dan's hand.
"Thank you, Dan" she wiped a tear away with her spare hand.
From across the room I saw Mum and Eliza having a conversation. It looked like it was turning into an argument so I quickly stood up and tapped the side of my wine glass. "I don't want to make a long speech, cause we all know I am awful at them. I just wanted to thank Dan, for being my best friend and giving that speech. I wanted to thank my Mum, brother, step-dad and real-dad, for supporting me throughout the past few weeks. I wanted to thank my sister, Eliza, for being my number one fan and always making me laugh. I wanted to thank Clara's parents, James and Lisa, for allowing me to be with their beautiful daughter. But most of all, I want to thank my wife, Clara, for agreeing to spend the rest of her life with me. Thank you all for making today very special and amazing." I sat down and Dan elbowed me.
"Just like you 'Amazing' Phil." I smiled at him and we tucked in to a lovely dinner.
