Chapter 36

The song is Flightless Bird, American Mouth by the band Iron and Wine! It is a Twilight song but it's a good Twilight song!

(Hopes POV)

      I opened my eyes and was staring at my reflection in a mirror. My makeup was done almost by a professional. Autumn was behind me placing white Hibiscuses in my braided hair that was in a bun. She was smiling as she was placing them in the braids. Was this the afterlife? A nice good feeling dream? Was I even dead in the first place?

      Holly came running into the small room wearing an off the shoulder long maroon dress, the same one Autumn was wearing but Autumn's dress was resting on her shoulders.

      "I have the video I have the video!" Holly yells as she runs to my side holding out the video playing on the phone.

      Evan was standing there with the nicest tux that I've ever seen, a maroon pocket square and maroon tie to match the dresses that Autumn and Holly were wearing. Delirious walks up behind him wearing a ball gown wedding dress with a long train in the back. The dress wasn't zipped up so Delirious was holding it up with his hands. He tapped on Evans's shoulder and Evan had the biggest smile on his face as he turned around. As soon as Evan saw Delirious in the wedding dress he brings a fist up to his mouth and just starts losing it in laughter.

      "I'm ready for our wedding honey!" Delirious says in the best girl voice he can attempt. I could hear the guys dying of laughter off-camera.

      "You're an ass Delirious, really you are. But your still my best man nonetheless." Evan says through his laughs. The video ended and I was laughing with Autumn and Holly. I guess if I'm dead or dreaming, I might as well enjoy this while I can.

      "So... I'm marrying Evan today, right?" I ask looking back at Autumn who walks to the door and grabs the wedding dress that Delirious was wearing in the video.

       "After a whole year of dating too, but you know it's Evan. He wanted to marry you on day one since you guys started dating." Autumn says as I get up from the chair and walk over to her.

       She helps me get in the long dress and starts to zip it up as well as button it up as well. There was a soft knock at the door. Autumn stops and looks at Holly who was slowly walking up to the door.

      "It might be Brock, don't open it till we can all hear his voice alright?" Autumn says as she watches the door. Holly leans her head against the door.

      "What's wrong with Brock?" I ask looking back and forth between the two.

      "No we want it to be Brock, he's giving you away to Evan remember? I'm just making sure it isn't Brian." Autumn says rather coldly. What did Brian do they both love Brian?

      "If it isn't Brock or Delirious please go away, there's 20 minutes left till the wedding is supposed to start. You should either be getting ready or in the church with everyone else." Holly says. We wait for a response.

      "It's Brock, Autumn said if I'm late it's my funeral instead of Hope's wedding," Brock says almost nervously.

      Autumn nods her head as Holly opens the door. Brock walks in and looks around the room before looking at me as Autumn finishes up buttoning the dress. Holly quickly closes the door and looks back at us.

      "I just want to say for the 100th time how happy I am that you picked me to walk you down the aisle," Brock says smiling. He was also wearing a tux as well as the sunset-colored tie from when we all went to the casino. I just have to go along with this because they all think it's real even though I know it isn't.
