*Blaire’s POV*

We have been preparing for this wedding for a week now. Everyone was so excited but I’m not. I’m happy for my mom that she’s getting married again but I’m still not ready for Kate to be my sister. We moved some of our stuff to their house yesterday and today, our house was going to be sold. Niall was very emotional because after 15 years of being neighbours, we’re going to be apart but I told him to set aside his emotions and just have fun tonight. After the wedding, we planned a sleepover at Niall’s house until Monday and we will all go to school together.

“Hey mum! Are you ready? It’s time.” I told my mum and then I smiled at her because she looked very pretty in her white tube flowy down. She was also wearing silver shoes and blue diamond earrings. She also had a short wedding veil; she did not want to have a long veil train because she said that she did not want to gather all of the sand in the beach with it. Yup, it’s a night beach wedding.

My mom smiled. “I’m ready, sweetie. How do I look?”

“You look very beautiful, mum” after I said that, there was a knock on the door and Niall’s head popped out.

“Hey Blaire! Hey Nicole! You both look beautiful today!” He said then he hugged us both. “Let’s go?” He offered his arm to my mom and my mom hooked her arm with Niall’s and the other one with mine.

We walked out of her hotel room, down to the lobby and we stood in front of the back door together with the other people who were part of the entourage. Kate and her dad were already outside waiting for us.

Everyone hugged the three of us and then we all complemented each other now how we look and honestly, we all looked good.

The boys were wearing black tuxes with matching light blue neck ties that somehow matched our blue gowns. Us, 4 girls, had different styles of gowns and different shades of blue.

We lined up properly as we heard the entrance song play. The doors opened as Liam and Zayn sang and Lucy was first to walk down the wooden aisle, she was like a grown-up flower girl. It was cute. Then halfway through the aisle, Louis and Eleanor came next and their arms linked together and Harry and Jio were next. After them were some of my mom and Kate’s dad’s officemates and friends who were the godmothers and godfathers of their wedding. Then when everyone was done, It was our turn.

Niall and I walked down the aisle together with my mom who was in between us. In the middle of the aisle, my mom stopped and let go of our arms. We kissed her cheek and we linked our arms together and we made our way to the end of the carpet. After that, my mom went down on her own and she was met by Justin, my soon-to-be stepdad, and he gave her a kiss and they made their way in front of the pastor.

The pastor did the ceremony and after an hour, “I now pronounce you, husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride.” My mom and my stepdad kissed and we all clapped then we made our way to the big tent that was set up few feet away from us for the reception.

“Hey there babe! You’re so gorgeous tonight.” I heard Zayn say as he wrapped her arms around my waist from the back. I looked back at him and he kissed me softly on the lips.

“You don’t look so bad yourself and you really sang well a while ago.” I said then I winked at him.

“Thanks!” he said as he pulled out a chair for me and then he sat next to me. We were seated in a circular table where 10 people can sit and we were only 9. The good thing is, I convinced my mom to not make Kate sit with us because I told her that her and Niall already broke up so it would be awkward between them.

Our dinner was served and we ate them as we talked about random things like we always do. Louis was very happy because there were baby carrots on the side of the entree and we all laughed at his silliness.

“Ok guys, now that almost everyone’s done eating. It’s time for the bride and groom’s first dance as a couple.” The host said and then my mom and Justin made their way to the center of the dance floor and they danced. After 5 minutes, Niall and I were called to dance with them.

“May I have this dance?” Niall asked then I looked at Zayn and he nodded telling me to go on.

“Uhm, sure.” I took his hand and we made our way beside my mom and Justin and we slow danced too. This is our first dance together. “Well this is awkward.”

“No it’s not.” Niall said as he looked at me. Damn those wonderful blue eyes of his. They were so beautiful, I always get lost when I look at him. Oh wait, Blaire, you can’t be falling in love with him again. You have Zayn and you’re happy with him. Stop thinking about Niall. Urgh!!

After 5 minutes of dancing with Niall someone tapped him on his shoulder and I looked over to see Zayn. “I believe it’s my turn to dance my beautiful girlfriend.” He said then Niall nodded and he handed me over to Zayn then he walked back to the table where the others were.

Zayn and I slow danced for the 3rd time. The first time was during our music class when he asked me to prom and the second was during the prom. “Have I told you, you look so beautiful tonight?” He asked and he smiled at me. He was very cute.

“Yup, for about a hundred times already.” I giggled.

“And I won’t get tired of reminding you that.” He told me and he kissed the tip of my nose and I blushed.

“Okay, for those who have their partners with them, you can now join these 2 couples on the dance floor.” The host said and everyone in our table stood up except for Niall. He did not have a partner so he remained seated and I was kind of sad for him.

After the wedding reception, we all rested for a while and then we all went up to my mom and Justin’s suite so we could say goodbye to them.

“Bye mum! I’ll see you on Monday or something!” I shouted as we headed to the door.

“Bye, sweetheart! Zayn, take care of my daughter, alright?” She shouted back.

“Yes, ma’am!” Zayn shouted.

We made our way out of the hotel and to Niall’s house. It was just a fifteen minute walk but the girls were so tired because we were still in our gowns and 4-inch high heels. As soon as we arrived his house, we went straight to the living room to sit down and we removed all our shoes.

“That friggin’ hurts.” Jio said.

“Want me to massage your foot, babe?” Harry offered.

“Are you sure?” Jio asked back.

“Yeahp.” Harry said as he made his way beside Jio and he massaged her feet.
