WYSLM?/ Chapter 16
"GAH!!!!! It won't zip!! Kendra, please come get this!" Kendra sighs, and keeps sitting on the bed, not even making a notion to get up.
"So..... Far.... Away." she says. I glare at her and point to the dress.
"Zip! Please! I have to hurry!" she sighs dramatically and heaves herself up. She comes and zips the dress up, a bit to harshly if you ask me. I turn around and face Kendra and her dressy self. Her dress is black, and has ruffles near the neckline. The black contrasts against her pale skin, making her look paler than usual. Kendra got invites to Joy's wedding since she's like a family member. I walk towards the mirror, admiring myself. I twirl, loving the way the baby blue satin feels on my skin. The blue looks good on my olive skin tone, and it compliments my eyes. I grab Kendra's hand and walk down to the small, hotel kitchen where Harry and Niall are waiting. I smile, run up, and hug Niall. He Hugs me back and walks me to the car. I turn my head and see Harry and Kendra following. While in the car, I get the chance to admire Niall and his dressy clothes. A navy blue button up shirt and black slacks. I smile to myself and look out the window. Dusk. My favorite part of the day. I slowly loose conciseness and fall asleep.
"Ruby. Wake up love." I feel a gentle rubbing on my shoulder. I blink my eyes open and sit up. I gently rub the sleep out of my eyes, so I dont mess up my makeup. Niall smiles and ushers me out the car. I sleepily smile back and walk to the beautiful chapel. My aunt had always wanted a small wedding, since she's kind of socially awkward. Though she grew out of that as time went on. I walk in and look at the elegant, brightly lit church.
"Ruby honey! You came!" I hear Joy say as she comes and tackles me into a hug. I smile hugely and give her a tight squeeze. I pull back and look at her elegantly pulled up red hair, and her beautiful dress.
"Aunt Joy, you look beautiful! Though you shouldn't be running in your dress. You might tear it!" she shook her head and smiled warmly.
"Always the responsible one." she looks at Niall, and smiles.
"And you must be Niall. Ruby has told me all about you and how 'perfect' you are. I'm Joy, by the way." I blush and look at the floor.
"Joy! Don't tell him that!" Niall and Joy chuckle and Niall smiles and extends his hand.
"Hi, my name is Niall. And you must be Joy." Joy smiles and hugs him, and Nialls eyes almost pop out of his head. He eventually gets over the shock an hugs her back. Joy pulls back and pats his shoulder. She looks to Kendra and Harry and starts to talk to them. I take Nialls hand and pull him towards the chapel, where we are seated. Kendra and Niall follow soon after and come and sit by Niall and I.
"Ready for this?" whispers Niall.
"I was born ready." he chuckles lightly and starts to play with my hair. The wedding music starts and my aunt starts to walk down the aisle. I turn to look at her, and smile grandly at how happy she looks. For the first time in a long time, she looks genuinely happy an contempt. After the ceremony, we all go to the reception. I gasp at the beautiful venue, with green and blue decorations everywhere. It's just like Joy.
"Can I have this dance?" asks Niall, just as 'Turn up the Music' starts to blast through the speakers. I smile and take his outstretched hand.
"You may." we walk out to the dance floor and start to dance. I see Kendra and Harry dancing to, and i smile at how happy they look. I turn back to Niall and dance for what feels like forever.
"Here comes the couple of the hour, here for their first dance as a married couple! Now how bout a warm welcome to Mr. And Mrs. Rodriguez!"
Joy and Pablo walk into the large building, hand in hand. They take the middle of the floor and start to dance to "I will be here" by Stephen Curtis Chapman. I smile at the strange looking but happy couple, and lean my head against Nialls shoulder.
"I want to be that happy one day." I whisper. Niall places one hand on my shoulder and squeezes it.
"You will be." I smile up at him
And turn my attention back to the dancing couple. Joys ginger hair is shining, and her gray eyes seem to sparkle. She's smiling up at Pablo with a look of love. And Pablo
Is giving her the look back, his brown
Eyes sparkling.
"How bout a little bit of some group dancing with the lovely couple? Will all of Joys family come up in the circle?" I smile at Niall and walk into the middle of the floor along with Joys parents and sister. We all smile at each other as 'Boyfriend' plays on the speakers. We start to
Dance wildly, just having a fun time. I look at all the smiling faces, and feel warmness nestle itself inside my soul.
"Finally decided to stop dancing for five minutes party girl?" says Niall as I look out into the cold winter night. I look up to the cloudless night sky, admiring the stars.
"Just for a while. I was getting hot, and the stars looked inviting." he leans against the balcony with me, our shoulders brushing. I brush my brown hair away from my face and look up to the stars again.
"Have you ever wondered if there was anything beyond the stars that we couldn't explain?" I asked, my voice cutting across the silent night.
"Like aliens?" I nod my head. He shrugs his shoulders.
"I don't know."
"I'm open to possibilitys. I don't know if there is, and if there is, okay. I won't make a big fuss about it." I say.
"Huh. Okay. That makes sense." I look over to his moonlit face and poke his cheek.
"Of course it does. I said it." he rolls his eyes and looks at me doubtfully.
"Whatever you say." I snort and playfully bump him.
"Thanks for that ego boost."
"You're welcome." I look back up at the stars, trying to count them. I give up at 65. There's just so many. I sigh contentedly, enjoying the comfortable silence imbetween Niall and I.
"There you guys are! We've been looking all over for you!" says Kendra as she walks over, glued to Harrys side. I smile at her and beckon for her to come with my arm.
"What are you guys doing out here?" asks Harry. I shrug.
"Enjoying each others company."
"Okay, well sorry to break up that, but it's time to go home." I sigh and push myself off the balcony, straightening up.
"Okay, let me just go say goodbye to Joy." I walk back into the reception and find Joy with Pablo, dancing to a slow song on the floor. I walk over to them and call out to the DJ,
"Hey, let's play one last song, and hit me with your best one!" he smiles and starts to play ' hit me with your best shot' by Pat Benatar. I smile at him and give him a thumbs up. Joy, Pablo, and I start to rock out and have one last dance. I look into their eyes, am see love. Pure love. And I know Niall and I will have that one day.
