《The Stranger on the Train》Chapter 90: Lizzie's wedding

Pov y/n
Calm music starts to play and I watch as Robbie walks down the aisle, standing next to the priest and expectantly looking back at the chalet.
Next are the best men and bridesmaids and I hold my breath, watching as Scarlett walks towards the arch.
She looks beautiful and for a few moments I imagine how it would be if she walked down the aisle as the bride while I wait for her at the arch or altar.
But I pull my imagination away from that thought, wanting to be present in this moment. Scarlett smiles happily, which I return before she takes her place next to the priest as well.
The music changes and everyone turns around.
I press my lips together when I see Rose in her little dress and now with a very neat hairstyle walking down the aisle, concentrated on spreading the flower pedals.
She looks so grown up and small at the same time and seeing her like this makes me tear up a little.
Rose looks up and sees her mom at the end of the aisle. For a short moment she forgets her job and smiles, giving a little wave that Scar returns and in the crowd there are multiple 'aww's audible.
Now Rose also looks for me and grins when she sees me before continuing her way down. When she reaches the middle of the aisle, everyone looks back again because Lizzie steps out of the chalet.
She looks incredibly beautiful in her white dress that flows down her body. The smile on her face couldn't be wider and she holds a bouquet of light pink and white flowers in her hands, matching Rose's dress and the flower pedals.
Slowly and gracefully, she walks down the aisle, her dad next to her, guiding her.
I feel the first tear drop from my eyes, I quickly get emotional at those kinds of events.
When I look back to the front, I see Rose reaching the priest. She looks to her mom, who smiles and takes the basket, putting it behind her before Rose turns around and quickly makes her way over to me before Lizzie crosses her way.
Seems like Scarlett talked to her about what to do. Rose looks at me excitedly and proud about her job at this wedding and I wrap my arm around her.
She knows not to talk or whisper now but I can tell that she will tell us all about walking down the aisle.
Lizzie reaches the front now and her dad kisses her cheeks before giving her hand to Robbie and Lizzie gives the flowers to one of her sisters.
"Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to join Lizzie and Robbie." The priest begins and talks further about marriage and how wonderful it is.
My eyes dart from the couple to Scar and I notice she is looking at me as well, a soft smile on her face and her eyes full of love.
I smile back the same way before we both look back to Lizzie and Robbie.
The priest says something about marriage being magically and Rose nudges my arm a little, grinning up at me and I smile, kissing her temple.
The ceremony continues and when they say their vows, I tear up again, caught up in the moment and so happy for them.
Flo hands me a tissue and when I look over to her, she's also wiping her eyes.
I wipe away some tears and when Rose notices me crying, she looks at me a little worried. I can tell she wants to say something but she knows that this isn't the right moment, so she climbs onto my lap, facing the ceremony, and takes my hands, giving them a little squeeze.

I cry a little more at how sweet she is, just generally emotional right now and wrap one arm around her, holding her close and preventing her to slip down. She leans back against me and I smile a little, wiping a few tears away with my other hand.
Scarlett's eyes shortly dart over to us again and I can see that she is tearing up as well. It kinda makes me think how our wedding would look like, both of us crying happy tears while reading our vows probably.
"Do you, Elizabeth Olsen, take this man to be your wedded husband? And do you promise to love him through sickness and through health until death do you apart?" The priest asks and I hold back more tears. Lizzie looks into Robbie's eyes, pure love between them.
"I do." She says and puts the ring on his finger.
"And do you Robert Arnett, take this woman to be your wedded wife? And do you promise to love her through sickness and through health until death do you apart?" Robbie smiles and one tear drops from his eyes.
"I do." He says and puts the ring on Lizzie's finger before linking hands with her.
"Then it's my honor to now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride now." The priest says, his eyes shining with happiness.
Robbie cups Lizzie's face with his free hand while hers moves to his side and they kiss each other.
Cheers erupt from the crowd and everyone claps.
Robbie wraps his arms around Lizzie and dips her while kissing, earning some whistles.
I laugh and wipe the last tear away.
They pull away and it looks like Lizzie almost explodes out of happiness. She links her arm with Robbie's and they walk down the aisle, back to the chalet, the bridesmaids and best men following. We watch them walk inside and slowly the first people get up to follow them. Rose turns around in my lap and looks at me.
"Why are you crying, Mama?" She asks. I smile a little, my cheeks still a little tearstained.
"Those were happy tears, baby." I explain and Rose hums, still not completely understanding the concept of happy tears but that's okay. She looks over to Flo, who wipes her last tears away as well.
"Were you also crying happy tears?" She asks Flo and the blonde chuckles a bit and nods.
"I did, sunshine." She answers and Rose nods, frowning a little in thought before accepting it.
"How about we go find Lizzie and Robbie and congratulate them?" I offer and Rose nods, suddenly excited again as if she forgot for a moment that we're at a wedding.
She slides off my lap and I can't help it but to tug her dress down properly before getting up and tugging on my own clothes.
I take her hand, so I don't lose her in the crowd and we make our way to the chalet and inside.
We quickly find the freshly married couple and get in line to congratulate them. When Scar and I make eye contact, she comes over and wraps one arm around my waist, kissing my cheek.
"Mommy, did you also cry happy tears?" Rose asks and looks up at her mom. She laughs a little bit and caresses Rose's cheek.
"I did, my sweet Rose." She says and nods. Rose hums.
"Mama cried a whole lot, I think she was very happy." Rose tells Scar bluntly and I laugh a little at her words and squeeze her hand. Scarlett looks at me softly. I nod, confirming Rose's words.

"I already lost it when I saw Rose walking down the aisle." I admit and Scar smiles and kisses my cheek, pulling me a little closer to her.
"I almost did too." She whispers into my ear before kissing my temple.
"But, what did I do to make you cry?" Rose asks a little confused and worried.
"It was the happy kind of crying, sweetie. I was just so touched when I saw you walk down there in your pretty dress and with your pretty hair." I explain and Rose thinks about my words before reaching up her arms to me and I let go of Scarlett to pick Rose up and place her on my hip.
She wraps her arms around my neck and kisses my cheek.
"You also look very pretty, Mama." She says and I almost start crying again at her adorableness.
I hug her and kiss her cheeks multiple times, making her giggle.
She smiles brightly at me and wiggles to be put down and I do so.
Scarlett's arm wraps around me again and I lean a little into her.
I don't need to say how much I love Rose and how adorable I think she is, Scarlett already knows and squeezes my waist a little bit.
We reach the front of the line and I let Rose go first with hugging Lizzie. Meanwhile, I hug Robbie and congratulate him. Scarlett already did that, so she just watches us. Then Rose and I change and I hug Lizzie.
"Congratulations, I wish you two the very best." I say and when we pull away, Lizzie beams at me.
"Thank you, y/n. And thank you for coming, I am very happy to have you here." She replies and I smile at her before we make room for the next people.
Scarlett leads us to the table we'll be sitting at. We share it with Flo, Chris, Anthony, Seb and Robert, so pretty much an Avengers table.
We wait for everyone to settle down while Rose tells us everything about walking down the aisle, just as expected. There aren't really any other children here, so we have to keep Rose entertained but we are doing a pretty good job.
She gets excited when she hears that it's time for cake and we watch Lizzie and Robbie cut the cake.
Rose almost bolts over there to get a piece as soon as the cake is free for everyone and Scarlett and I laugh and follow her, getting a piece each as well.
There are a few toasts and Scarlett also gives a little speech, during which I just look at her, mesmerized by her beauty and her voice.
After that, Lizzie and Robbie leave the room to take pictures with the photographer and I watch as Rose and Chris have a competition on who can fold a napkin the most times.
Chris lets Rose win and she cheers happily.
Scarlett glances at her phone and tells me that Lizzie asked us to come for pictures as well. Well, I suppose mainly Scarlett since she is a bridesmaid and maybe Rose since she is the flower girl but I go with them, knowing someone has to look after Rose when Scar is being in front of the camera.
Rose skips next to us, proudly telling us how often she folded the napkin and we smile at her.
We arrive at the spot, which is behind the cherry blossom tree. There's a lot of space and no buildings or anything that would destroy the pictures. Lizzie is just having a little photoshoot with her sisters and I have to admit, they all look amazing and very professional, which is kinda obvious since they are all used to being photographed.
Then Lizzie calls Scarlett over to join and for a few moments I watch them and can't help but admire my girlfriend. But I divert my attention to Rose and adjust her dress and hair for the picture later on.
After a few more pictures, Lizzie calls for Rose and she happily skips over and they take pictures together with all the bridesmaid before it's just Scarlett, Lizzie and Rose.
Rose smiles brightly into the camera and I can tell that it is a true happy smile and it makes my heart fill with warmth and contentment, to see her this happy, as well as Scarlett.
"Y/n, come over please." Lizzie calls and I am a little confused but walk over to them. Lizzie nods towards Scarlett and Rose before stepping aside.
"I...Lizzie, this is your wedding and your photo shooting, I wasn't even part of the ceremony." I say, not sure how to react but Lizzie puts her hand on my shoulder and smiles reassuringly.
"I am aware of that but I want the tree of you to have a picture together of this wedding." She says and smiles softly.
"That's...thank you, really." I say and she beams at me and I return it before joining Scarlett and Rose.
We take a pictures with Rose standing between or in front of us before Scarlett picks her up and holds her between us.
I wrap one arm around Rose and smile into the camera.
Lizzie stands behind the camera and pulls some goofy faces, making all of us laugh.
I'm not sure if she does it to make Rose laugh or for all of us but I don't care, I am thankful either way.
After the photo shoot, we head back to the venue, Lizzie coming with us since Robbie already took all his pictures with his friends and family.
We don't go back to our table because we know what's next and stay close to the dance floor since it's time for the first dance.
Lizzie and Robbie enter the dancefloor and music starts to play a little louder.
I smile at their music choice and smile as I watch them sway around the dance floor.
Just by the looks the two of them share, I can tell they are madly in love with each other and it makes me happy to witness and I hope that one day, I will get the chance to have a first dance and share exactly those kinds of looks with someone.
Someone being Scarlett right now.
Just at the thought of that I smile and lean a little into her side, her arm around my shoulder. Rose watches Lizzie and Robbie dance as well and I am positively surprised that she isn't expressing boredom or anything like that.
Once the music fades and turns into something a bit faster, a friend of Robbie's brings a chair to the dance floor and Lizzie sits down, giggling and looking up at Robbie.
I look over to Scarlett, not sure if we should cover Rose's eyes, depending on how far this will go.
Scarlett seems to read my mind and speaks to Rose in a hushed voice, pulling the girl's attention away from the dance floor, where Robbie is pushing Lizzie's dress up higher to find her garter.
I look to Scarlett who distracts Rose successfully but glances to the dance floor a few times. Robbie finds it and slowly pulls it off Lizzie's leg after placing a kiss on her inner knee, making her giggle and blush a little.
He pulls it off her foot and grins up at her, pulling her dress back down and kissing her passionately.
Everyone cheers and Rose turns around to see what the fuss is about and cheers as well, just seeing them kissing. Scarlett and I share a relieved look and cheer as well.
The chair is brought away again and guests flood the dance floor. The music gets turned up a little more and guests start to dance. It a faster song, so everyone just dances as they want.
Rose jumps up and down while Scarlett and I move to the music.
I smile at Rose and offer my hand to her. She takes it and I spin her around a few times, making her laugh and I can't help it but to join in. Rose takes my other hand and starts jumping again, encouraging me to do the same, so I do so. She giggles happily and when I catch a glimpse of Scarlett, I see her contently smiling at us.
"May I have this dance, little lady?" Seb asks Rose and she spins around to him, grinning up at him and nodding.
He gives a short smile to Scar and me before taking Rose's hand and leading her a few steps away from us.
I turn around to Scarlett and dance with her a little. The song fades into a next one and I feel my skin tingling a little when I recognize it.
By the looks on Scar's face, I can tell she knows which song it is as well.
"It's a beautiful night, we're looking for something dumb to do..." I quietly sing to her and her eyes light up at my words, her hands finding my hips and she moves in sync with me.
"Hey baby, I think I wanna marry you." We sing together while gazing into each other's eyes and I can tell that this is more than just a song right now.
The rest of the lyrics plays while we just look into each other's eyes and dance together.
It seems like everything else becomes irrelevant and I don't notice the other people around us anymore, too lost in her eyes and the moment.
She seems to feel similar because her eyes are only focused on me, not caring about anything else.
The song continues to play, more like a background noise to the both of us but we still notice it.
"Is it the look in your eyes?" I sing softly.
"Or is it this dancing juice?" She continues.
"Who cares baby, I think I wanna marry you." We sing together, not breaking the eye contact as the song fades. It's more than just lyrics because I know from my side, it's the truth and she seems to feel a similar way.
I take a breath, the moment feeling intense but in a good way and we slowly come back to reality. We share one last meaningful look before we start to dance to the music again.
We dance through a lot of songs, looking for Rose every once in a while, and seeing her dancing with pretty much everyone of the Marvel cast that's here today. Watching her dance with Lizzie is adorable.
After a lot of songs more, Scarlett and I collect Rose and go back to our table to drink some water. Scar and I both decided not to drink any alcohols tonight because we have Rose with us and also want to remember all of this completely.
Rose's cheeks are slightly pink from all the dancing and she looks adorable. But she whines a little about her hair annoying her, so Scarlett carefully pulls out all the ties and clips and combs Rose's hair carefully with her fingers before putting two braids into it.
Rose seems satisfied with that and empties her water. We order a new bottle of water and also some juice for Rose and watch as the dance floor slowly empties and everyone returns to their seats because it's time for the buffet.
It goes table wise and of course, everyone lets Rose be first in line and with her also Scar and me because Rose is a little pickier about the food and sometimes needs to ask what is even served and if she likes it.
Scarlett helps her select her food before handing her the plate carefully and putting food on her own. We return to our table and wait for the others to return before eating our food.
It's really delicious and I hum at the taste. Rose also seems happy with her choices and swings her legs a little in the air.
After we had food, Lizzie comes to Rose and holds up a little camera.
She explains that it's a camera with one film, for about 30 pictures and hands it to Rose, so she can take pictures of things she thinks are picture worthy.
Scar thanks her and watches as Rose excitedly takes a closer look at the camera. Lizzie squeezes Scarlett's shoulders a little and tells her it's because Rose is the only child here and it's probably a little boring for her.
Rose tugs on my hand and I get up with her, waving at Scar and Liz as Rose pretty much leads me through the whole room, looking for something to take a picture of.
She decides the buffet is a good start and then chooses the flowers on the sides. The DJ board is also worthy of a picture.
We stumble across Anthony who smiles at Rose with her camera and asks if he is worthy of a picture with a little grin and Rose giggles and says 'no'.
He pretends to be offended before asking to get his picture taken. Rose thinks about it and says if he can find good motives for her, she will think about it. And off they go and I go back to Scarlett who watched us amused.
"Seems like she found someone to play with." She jokes and follows Rose and Anthony with her eyes as they step outside.
"Yes, seems like it." I agree and empty my glass of water.
"How about we get dessert?" I ask and nod towards the buffet where they set up the dessert plates.
"Sure, lead the way, my love." Scar says and I get little butterflies in my stomach and take her hand to lead her to the dessert.
They pretty much have everything that the heart desires and I get excited over the chocolate pudding with vanilla sauce. Scarlett laughs a little when I almost squeal in excitement when I see sprinkles.
"Should I ask Lizzie to get another camera?" She teases lightly and I fake pout at her.
"I am very capable of entertaining myself." I say and she laughs.
"You're not even denying it?" She asks and kisses my temple before we walk back. I stick out my tongue at her, making her laugh.
"You're such a child sometimes but I love that so much about you." She says lovingly after we placed our plates down and she pulls me in for a kiss, which I smile into.
"Someone has to keep you on your toes, old lady." I tease back and she swats my arm while laughing.
