Only Forever-Stony Stark

Chapter 24

Steve glanced at the mirror one last time making sure that his tie was straight. After everything that he and Tony had been through it was finally the day that they would say their I do's.He wished things would have played differently between him and Sharon, but destiny planned it this way and there was nothing he could do about it. Heck, Steve still cared about her that's for sure, and she will always be his son's mother. A knock came from the door startling the super soldier, Bucky let himself in smiling at his friend.He wasn't alone, Wanda and Sam strolled in right behind him. 

Bucky put his hands on his best friend's shoulder, Steve watching him from the reflection of the mirror "Last time we were here you were marrying Sharon and now you're marrying the man you love"he smiled Steve chuckled and smiled at his friend. "Steve I wish nothing but the best for the both of you"the super soldier turned around nodding his head "Thanks Buck''he grinned shaking his hand then went in for a hug.After a few seconds they both pulled away,Bucky had always stuck by him, regardless of every bad decision that Steve made and it meant a lot to him that he was here sharing this important day with him. 

"The ceremony is about to start better go meet Tony at the altar"Wanda commented, the super soldier nodded his head sighing deeply, he couldn't deny that he was nervous beyond belief.He turned around facing his friends, finally getting the courage to leave his room. After the five-minute drive to the reception, the super soldier stood nervously at the altar waiting for his soon to be husband. The band started to play when he saw his little girl, Aurora, with a beautiful pink dress and a flower crown, make her way down the aisle with a basket full of pedals. Everyone at the venue immediately stood on their feet, when Aurora reached Steve she quickly went to take her seat.

The super soldier suddenly smiled as he saw Tony starting to walk down the aisle, not very long after he stood in front of Steve. The super soldier smiled some more taking the brunette's hands in his, they faced each other never letting go of their hands. "Welcome, family, friends and loved ones. We are gathered here today, surrounded by the beauty of creation and nurtured by the sights and sounds of nature to celebrate the wedding of Steve and Tony. You have come here from nearby and from far away to share in this commitment now they make to one another, to offer your love and support to their union, and to allow Steve and Tony to start their married life together surrounded by the people dearest and most important to them"the preacher began.Steve never took his eyes off his future husband. He still couldn't believe that they were finally getting married, and after everything that occurred, it was all worth it. 

The preacher continued on "Steve and Tony have asked that I read this expert so I will" he cleared his throat opening his book to the first page fixing his glasses then he began reading "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hope, always perseveres. Love never fails"He closed his book for a few seconds looking up at the couple in front of him 

"Now Steve please take Tony's hand and repeat after me"the super soldier let go of one of his hand but his gaze never left his, the preacher speaking once again "Tony I take you as you are, loving who you are now and who you are yet to become. I promise from this day forward to be grateful for our love and our life to be generous with my time, my energy and my affection. To be patient with you and with myself to fill our lives with adventure and our home with laughter to encourage you to grow as an individual, and inspire you to do so. To love you completely these things I pledge before you, our friends and our family"

Steve repeated the preacher's every word, both of them taking turns to say this vow before everyone and promising nothing but love to one another and their family. "Please present the rings" the rings were brought to them by Natasha, Steve took one of the rings first in his hands quickly turning back to the brunette "Steve as you place this ring on Tony's finger, repeat these words after me. This ring symbolize my love for you", "This ring symbolize my love for you" he began slowly placing the ring on his finger with a smile on his face "And the commitments we made today"

"And the commitments we made today" the preacher made Tony repeated the same words as he placed the ring on Steve's finger, as they started reaching the end of their wedding ceremony "And now it's time for the wedding vows"the super soldier smiled staring at Tony holding his hands in his trying to find the right words to say or start. 

"Tony since the very first day I laid my eyes on you I knew that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you.You are the most selfless, caring, loving human being I have met.I admire your strength the way you overcame your addiction not only for you but for our daughter, I am so lucky that I had the opportunity to meet you.But I admire you most of all because you were able to bypass the hate you had towards me and you let me a part of your life once again.You're such a wonderful human being that I can't and will never stop loving you till death do us apart.I love you Anthony Edward Stark today and always"

"Steve I know that we had our ups and downs and here in front of everyone that we love I want to confess to you that I love you that there is nothing in this world I wouldn't do for you, I want to thank you for making me a better man.If it wasn't for your help I would still be stuck in my old habits, so thank you.I also know I've made a lot or errors but you stood by my side regardless.I've never met a person so brave, caring and down to earth you are the person that I always wished to be, now I know what the big fuss was about when my dad wouldn't shut up about you.I love you Steve and I can't wait to begin this new journey with you hand in hand loving you every single second of my life till death do us apart"the super soldier smiled holding back his tears biting his bottom lip as the preacher went on

"Now Steven Grant Rogers, do you take Anthony Edward Stark to be your lawful husband to have and to hold from this day forward for better and for worse, for richer and for poor in sickness and in health until death do you apart?"The super soldier didn't hesitate and he was quick to respond he wanted to cut the preacher short on his word four he let him finish"I do" he simply responded knowing that very soon he could call the brunette his, the preacher nodded his head turning to look at Tony 

"Now Anthony Edward Stark do you take Steven Grant Rogers to be your lawful husband to have and to hold from this day forward for better and for worse for richer and for poor in sickness and in health until death do you apart?", 'I do"the preacher grinned setting his book down on his stand and joined both his hands together "With all the power vested in me I now pronounce you husband and husband you may now kiss"both of them slowly moved their heads towards each other their lips finally meeting as they sealed the ceremony with the most passionate kiss ever "I love you, Tony" "I love you too capsicle"Steve laughed as he kissed him once again, they were finally going to be a big happy family with Aurora and little Peter....oh yeah and the Avengers too.
