Today is the day. I'm getting married today. The past few days have been a little hectic but it's now a breather.

I'm in my mom's apartment. We decided to have the wedding at Aiden's house. Everyone would be begin to arrive around 6 since the wedding ceremony was to be a 7.

I had woken up quite early to excited to close my eyes for a moment longer. I now sit with my mom, Mrs. Knight and Amelia, who was busy playing with her toys on the bed.

She has recently taken a liking to call me 'mama' much to Aiden's distaste since Amelia has yet to call him 'papa.'

"All done." The makeup lady said as she finished off my make-up. She move out the way so my mom and Mrs. Knight could see my face.

"Oh my lord. You look beautiful." Mrs. Knight gushed while my mom simply whipped tears from her eyes.

"Okay. Okay," Mrs. Knight use her hands to fan herself ," it is time for the dress."

My mom got up and got the dress from where it was left. She unzip the bag before she took it out. I drop my robe but quickly put the dress on while Mrs. Knight was busy with Amelia to glance over at me and see my scars. My mom button me up.

Finally,I was ready. It was just about to be two o'clock.

"Love, are y'all ready?" Mr. Knight's voice drifted from the other side of the door.

"Just about." My mom fixed my tendrils from my loose updo.

"Okay we're good. " My mom went to hold Amelia while Mrs. Knight went to open the door.

Outside the door, Mr. Knight stood along the wall with Gabriel beside him. I didn't even know when he arrived!

"Gabriel!" I yelled excited to see him.

"Lisa." I was rewarded a killer smile. He seemed surprised at my reaction but soon he wrapped me in his arms. I returned the hug. Resting my face in his chest and inhaling his scent.

I took a step back, breaking the embrace. "Lisa I was wondering if it were possible that I could still walk you down the aisle." The wedding would be out in the backyard since it was big enough to hold just about another house. The dinner would also be held there. Just a small intimate gather. It was all I could ever ask for.

I smile "I would love too."

My mom with Amelia ,and Mr. and Mrs. Knight, walk on ahead of us. But my mom hesitated for a moment before coming towards me. She had the biggest smile and eyes glisten.

"I love you." She whispered in my ear, Amelia between us as she looked up at us.

"I love you more." I whispered back. She lean back and cupped my cheek. "You deserves this and much more."

"Mama." Amelia uttered the single word I love.

A gasp was heard from behind me. "She talks?" Gabriel asks in awe.

"Yeah." I laugh. "She just recently learned."

Gabriel caress her cheek before my mom walked away. I watched as Gabriel look at her in longing.

I frown confuse.

Gabriel clears his throat. "Well let's get this show on the road. Oh and just so you know if you want to make a run for it, a getaway car is at your disposal." Gabriel joked.

I laughed. "Aiden would hunt me down til he finds me. He's been far to eager for this day."

"He's in love." Gabriel states. Almost as if a realization came over him.

"Yes."

"And you him."

"Yes." No hesitation. For I know I may not have uttered the words but feel for him.

We stop in front of the door to the backyard.

"Still have time." Gabriel teases.

I shake my head, a smile in my face.

I, too, have been very eager for this day.

Gabriel opens the door while I hold a death grip on his jacket. I smile at everyone sitting in the chairs. Mostly there family. I spot Rachel and Nick, even Daniel and Elena in the front rows. I finally let my eyes travel to the front were, there standing in a navy suit and a baby pink handkerchief in the chest pocket, matching the theme of the wedding. I had add a bit of pink on me from the accessory of my hair. I watch as Aiden kiss Amelia before handing her back to my mom.

Soon enough we reach Aiden. Gabriel lightly kisses my forehead, that brings tears to my eyes.I never thought I was going to be married but here I am. Even though I know Gabriel is not my dad, I surrender to this moment and just imagine that he is and I had a normal life, getting married when I met the guy of my dreams.

Gabriel hands me over to Aiden not before I grab his forearm and lean in. "Thank you." I kiss his cheek before taking a seat but not before I see his eyes water a little and he touch the cheek I kissed him.

I turn my attention back to Aiden, I give him a big, wide smile. "You look beautiful. "Aiden whispers.

"Thank you, you don't look to shabby yourself."

Aiden throws back his head and laughs. The guest simply look curious at to what I had just told him.

"Today we are here gathered..." As the judge beings to talk I zone out, lost in the sensation of Aiden's hand in mine, running his thumb on the soft side of my hand. I would glance at him every once in awhile to find too staring back at me.

"Do you, Lisa Grey take Aiden Knight to be your lawfully wedded husband?" The judge asks.

" I do." I smile.

"Do you, Aiden Knight take Lisa Grey to be your lawfully wedded wife?"

"I do." Aiden answers immediately.

"With the power invested in me, I know pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss-"

Aiden cuts the judge off with taking my face in his arms and crushes his mouth to mine. I pay not heap to the noise around me.

A throat suddenly clears.

"If you may sign here." The judge hands us a pen.

Aiden finishes writing his name.

It is official, I'm now Lisa Knight.

Aiden takes my hand rising it up in the air. Like victory. I laugh.

I walk towards my mom who runs towards me and hugs me tight. Amelia pulls on the end of my dress demanding to be picked up. I pick her up before going up to hug everyone else.

Once we are done we walk over to the tables where dinner will be served.

We sit down. The servers immediately brings out the food.

We sit for a while eating peacefully. Amelia sits beside Aiden and I, eating pasta.

A makeshift dance floor is stationed in the center on the tables.

"Come on love, time for your dance. " Aiden tells me while I whips sauce off of Amelia face.

I suddenly blush. I forgot we had to dance.

"Aiden I'm not very good at dancing." I whisper in his ear as we near the dance floor.

"It's fine just follow my lead."

Aiden takes my hand pulling me close. I lay a hand on his shoulder and wait for the music to start.

A familiar beats starts before lyrics I once sang ring through the backyard.

I throw my head back and laugh.

Aiden watches me with a lovestruck grin.

The guests watching us with curious and confusion for not a typical song for this dance.

"How-how did you remember this song?" I ask Aiden as Brad Paisley's 'We Danced' plays.

"Well I remembered the lyrics you were yelling from the top of your lungs and I thought this would be our song."

I hummed as the song played.

Once the song was done. Everyone joined to dance.

"Mind if I cut in?" Gabriel asks.

"Not at all." I answers. Aiden seems a bit reluctant to let go but soon he did and he went to dance with my mom.

I filled my shared of dance from Mr. Knight, Gabriel, Nick, and even Daniel.

I decided to take a break and walk over to Elena and Rachel.

"Hey guys."

"Hi." They answer back in unison.

"How's your baby?" I ask Rachel. Rachel who is about to give birth.

"Oh she is ready to pop out. Nick is eager, too." I nod.

I turn my attention to Elena who is dressed in a simple, red, strapless dress.

"How are you?" I ask.

"Same old." She forces a smile and gives me a one shoulder shrug.

I look behind me too look for Daniel, who I find wrapped in a tall blonde.

"Who is that?" I ask Elena.

"His date." She states.

"So he brought a date and then brought you?"

"I came to work."

"Bullcrap. Your my friends. You do not have to be with him. I invited you." I state angrily.

She look at me helpless.

"I have an idea." I get up from and walk to find one of Aiden's cousins.

"Andrew. Hi, would you mind doing me a favor. " I ask. Andrew is a very handsome man. Standing nearly as tall as Aiden with black hair and bright green eyes.

"Sure. What do you need?" I slip my arm through his and walk towards Ellena.

"Would you mind dancing with my friend right there. The one in the red." I nod my head towards Ellena.

"With pleasure." Andrew gifts me with a killer smile and a wink that are sure to leave many breathless.

I watch as he walks towards Ellena. She seems to hesitate but soon accepts.

I giggle.

"What are you up too Mrs. Knight." I jump when I hear the voice of Aiden voice in my ear.

"Nothing." I look innocent.

He simply shakes his head and takes my hand. "Let's dance."

I nod as Aiden leads me to dance endlessly.

After a few dances I ask for a break.

"I'll be right back." I walk inside the house to use the bathroom.

Amelia has long gone to sleep.

I walked towards the bathroom to take a quiet break. I look in the mirror and watch as if look more alive, happy.

My eyes have a shine that wasn't there before.

I smile before I leave and walk towards the kitchen for a glass of water. I turn the light on and fill a glass.

I turn as I hear hushed whispers in the hallway leading to the laundry room. I slowly walk to the hall.

A startled gasps leaves my mouth as the scene in front of my unfolds.

The glass of water slips through my fingers. A crash sounding like a bomb in the silence.

Gabriel is standing with my mom. His arms wrapped around her body holding her like a precious jewel. His mouth on hers.

A gasp sound from behind me. I turn around to find Daniel who has Ellena in a strong grip by her elbow. Daniel doesn't seem at all surprise while Elena's mouth hangs open.

I turn to watch as they break apart shocked at the audience they have gathered.

I watch as my mom tries to step away from Gabriel but he is having none of that as he wraps an arm around her waist.

"I love your mother."
