Jackie's POV

Today is Ben and Lisa's wedding and I'm so excited for it. Their having the ceremony outside, and the reception inside. Since their having it outside I had to get a new dress. I was planning on just wearing the one from my brother's wedding. but now I can't. This one is a light grey color, but it's floor length. It crosses in the back, and comes together in the front. Your able to see all my tattoos on my arms, the only ones not visible are the ones on my legs. It drags a little on the ground, so I'm probably going to wear heels with it. I slip it on after taking a shower and curling my hair. I put my makeup on, some cover up, eye liner on top and bottom, and some mascara. I make sure to put my knee brace on under it.

Just like for my brother's wedding, I leave on my cross and take off my dog tags. I take off the bracelets I was wearing and put on my two rings. After looking through the few pairs of earring I own, I pick out a pair of grey roses. After putting them in I slip on the only pair of heels I own. Their black wedges, and their not too tall. My dress still drags, but that's ok. If it gets in the way I can just pick it up a little when I walk. I grab my small black clutch, phone, and keys. I check my hair one last time before leaving. The place where their having the wedding isn't far from here, so I don't have to leave the house really early.

Once I get there almost everyone is here. When I start walking towards the seating area I can tell there are a lot of glances my way. I feel a little selfconscious, but I ignore it and sit in the middle on the grooms side. I look around and don't see anyone I know until I spot Wyatt. He's Ben's younger brother, he comes to the shop a lot. He sits next to me.

"Why don't you want to sit with your parents?" I ask him as a pretty girl sits on the other side of him.

"Really don't want to be front and center. Jackie, this is my girlfriend Maddie. Jackie works with Ben." He says the last part to her. I shake her hand.

"It's nice to meet you." I say.

"You too." She says smiling. She has a pretty smile, and I can't help but think of how perfect they are together.

"How come you never told me you have a girlfriend?"

"Why does it matter?"

"Cause then I would've been able to pick on you." I whisper nudging his arm.

"Why does everyone want to pick on me about things like that?"

"Your sixteen buddy, it comes with the territory. We're just joking with you, you know that."

"Ya, ya, ya." He says. I rub his arm and laugh a little. He slips his fingers between hers and I smile. I adore young love. It's so sweet and innocent. My phone buzzes and I take it out.

"Who's the kid sitting next to you?" It's Niall.

"You know, it's really creepy when you do things like that."

"Why is it creepy?"

"Cause your like some sort of stalker."

"It's kind of hard not to see pictures of you when I'm stuck in a hotel room and there isn't much to do. Plus the fans keep sending them to me."

"Fine, but for your information his name is Wyatt, he's 16, and his girlfriend is sitting on his other side. He's Ben's little brother."

"I was just asking. You seemed to be enjoying your conversation with him."

"I was until you interrupted."

"Sorry I'll let you get back to flirting." The band does this thing to signal that the wedding is about to start.
