It had been a long time since Gwen had experienced so much happiness in such a small area. The fiery red head had just watched her best friend get proposed to and her fiancé he connect with his little sister he hadn’t seen in years. According to Michelle, back when her obsession with the band Lords of Captivating Hearts was at its worst used to go on and on about how horrible Jack’s ex was by keeping him from his sister and using him for publicity. Now the nine year old girl wasn’t just brought back into Jack’s life but Michelle adopted her, fulfilling her dream of becoming a mother… something she never thought she would do.

“Come on in, we’ll discuss everything here at the dining table.” Gwen said gesturing towards the table as the wedding planner followed her inside in awe of the impressive large house.

“The house it a lot bigger than the magazines make it out to be in the magazines,” The designer said stumbling over her words as she followed the redhead into the house. The little brunette lady began to lay her piles of papers and books onto the table top of the dining room still in shock of the side of the inside of the house. “Anyway, I know you’ve got a lot to think about but here is a list of caterers I’d suggest along with cake designers.”

Gwen laughed as she took a seat at the table and grabbed the flowers books, “Actually my father runs a restaurant and wishes to provide the catering and wedding cake for us. But I will be looking for flowers and a dress as well as the other designs.”

“Oh okay!” The woman said in a chirpy tone as they began to look through books and books of designs for a wedding. It wasn’t long before Gwen had her dress picked out but the caramel eye colored red head had her hands in her hair as the lady went into way too much detail about flowers, the design of the place, where they should do it, who should hire, who should play at it and on and on she went. How much went into planning and wedding, she needed help! She mentally screamed out for Jack to help her, she needed her fiancé for the rest of this!

Michelle had just been proposed to by her boyfriend Robert Gaffinger and she couldn’t imagine her life without him. And the fact that the twenty four year old just adopted a nine year old girl who was Jack’s little sister he hadn’t seen in years and since her best friend was engaged in him and she was engaged to his best friend, he was going to see a lot of his sister, even though she was legally his. A smile moved across her face as she and Robert entered their house with her daughter and the soon to be his daughter as they went into a suppurate room that had the detailed plans for Michelle and Robert’s dream house they were building near Gwen and Jack’s house. Sadly she had revealed that she would not be able to bare any children for Robert but he didn’t care, he still wanted to be with her and that meant the world to her.

“So we’ll have the horse stables here.” Michelle was showing Amanda the plans for the house. “I’m sure we’ll get you your own soon. I don’t think Robert will let you grow up without your own horse.” She said glancing up at her fiancé with a wink before she looked back at the plans. “It will be a seven bedroom house, a video game room, a library, four bedrooms and a gym. You will have your own bathroom and so will your…” She stopped, looking up at Robert, a twinkle was in her blue eyes that she thought she never would have, “father and I’s bedroom will have one as well.” Her attention moved back to the plans with an irremovable grin. “two guest bathrooms, a large living room, a huge kitchen where I’ll teach you how to cook many many good foods and fattening goodies, and a family dining room. You’re going to love it. I can’t wait to get this built.”

Jack smiled as he watched Gwen his lovely fiancée rush the wedding planner inside the house. He knew he wouldn’t be allowed in for a couple of minutes because Gwen would want to privately pick out a dress and if he went in before she picked it out he would probably get yelled at since Gwen was a huge believer in the groom not seeing the dress before the actual wedding day.

Amanda smiled as she looked at the way her older brother moved to look at Gwendolyn you could tell by a look in the eyes that he was truly and honestly happy to be with her “Jackie let me ask you a question. Do you believe in true love and soul-mates I heard it a lot from your ex-girlfriend she’d always rant and rave about how you were her true love.”

Jack turned to look at his sister and he smiled “Yes dear I do believe in true love and soul-mates. I have found mine in Gwendolyn you see honey she is my lover, my best friend and the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with. Now that I have her in my life I know I could never live without her.”

Amanda smiled “I hope I find someone like that later on in life. I want to know how you and Gwen or Robbie and Michelle feel” she said smiling cutely.

“Trust me sis eventually one day when you’re older you’ll find your true love but I am not going to lie to you. You’ll probably go through a hand full of boyfriends until you find that one special person who you want to spend the rest of your life with” Jack said smiling at his sister as he kissed her forehead gently “Unfortunately though for you it will not be for a very long time because as your older brother I am going to do everything in my power to stop it” he said teasingly as he lightly tapped his sisters cheek with his fist “But hey I have got to go inside and help Gwen because I know by now she’s probably about to rip her hair out in chunks” he said teasingly as he stood up and walked into the house following the voices coming from the kitchen and walked in to sit beside Gwen. “Alright sorry it took me so long” he said placing his hand on Gwen’s back rubbing it lightly as he smiled at her “So I’m here what can I help with” he asked her curiously he could tell by the look on her face she was going into wedding planning overload and needed his help. Slowly he looked at the paperwork that the wedding planner had on the table “Alright the place we’re going to have the wedding is in the backyard since we have beautiful scenery out there if Gwen is alright with that, for flowers I want orchids, purple carnations, red and white roses and dahlia flowers. I want my buddies band the Loverly Outlaws to play songs for the ceremony. I also have a surprise from my soon to be bride while doing the vows I want a grand piano placed off to the side of the alter and I am going to personally sing a love song I am writing for Gwen with her in her beautiful dress sitting on my piano as I sing to her while my brother Robert plays acoustic guitar for the song” he said knowing he had dropped a bombshell on Gwen that he had been hiding from her since they got engaged he had already wrote the song knowing she was the one he was going to be with for the rest of his life. The funny part was while Gwen and Michelle had went out a couple of times Robert and himself had been practicing the song.

Amanda skipped alongside Michelle as they all entered Jack and Gwen’s house taking in the inside of the beautiful home that actually had a lot of pictures of her in it. But soon she stopped beside Michelle as she began to show the house that was being built “I like horses but I was wondering if we could turn this room right here into a music room I want to learn to play a few instruments that I don’t know because I want to be just like my brother, Robert and Gwen when I grow up” she said excitedly before she saw the beautiful grand piano in the middle of the room that Jack had always said was off limits and she knew exactly that this was the piano that their grandmother had played for them as children slowly she hopped up on the bench and ran her finger’s over the keys before playing a perfect piano cover of one of Jacks love songs singing it as well with a beautiful singing voice that could only be described as a younger female Jack’s.

Robert smiled as he said “I think we can have a music room. Jack and I would be more than happy to teach you how to play anything you want darling” he said smiling at young Amanda before watching her leave Michelle’s side to go to the forbidden piano as Jack always called it. “Oh Amanda dear I don’t think you” he started but then listened to her play the piano as if she had been born to play. Beautiful music rang from the piano followed closely by a beautiful angelic singing voice singing the Lords of Captivating Heart’s number one love song.

Jack was still staring at the paperwork trying to help Gwen figure things out when beautiful music rang inside his ears. Quickly Jack stood up thinking Robert was on the forbidden piano but once he got inside the room where Michelle, Robert and Amanda was he saw who was playing it and he couldn’t help but smile because his sister was an amazing piano player as well as a singer and it truly warmed his heart that she was playing and singing one of the bands songs.

As if on cue, Jack walked into the dining room and joined her and the planner at the table looking over the things. When he touched her back she fell back into his hand; the weight of the wedding planning to be lifted off of her shoulders and very thankful that he had a lot more to say about it. The wedding planner seemed to want Gwen to do everything that would cause her to spend as much of Jack’s money as she could but that wasn’t what Gwen was about and anyone who knew her, including Jack, knows that she isn’t marrying Jack for his money. She’s marrying him because she loves him.

Her eyes went wide as he explained about his plan for wedding and playing a piano and singing the song for her. Her face turned bright red as a smile moved across her full lips and her caramel eyes turned back to the pages down towards the books. “I’d like to have party favors for the guests; I think it would be fun to give out replicas of my engagement ring for the women,” Her gaze turned to Jack, “I don’t know what we would give the men, they tend to not really enjoy gifts; it tends to be more for the women. Maybe little replicas of the Delorean the guys and I built for you?” The quirky personalities of the two would make those types of gifts understandable to their guests, especially with how funny the two tend to be together, joking around and laughing compared to some other couples who look bored with one another.

A smile moved across Michelle’s face when she asked for the room to be a music room. Her attention moved to Robert as he gave the okay for it, “I agree but can our room not be next to it, I’d like to get some sleep and I have a feeling she’ll play all throughout the night.” The laughter of Michelle rang through the room before it was interrupted by Amanda getting on the forbidden piano. Before either Michelle or Robert could react, Jack was in the room, ready to throw whoever was playing the piano out the window like he had warned them multiple times. Gwen had arrived at his side second later before Jack seemed to relax at the sight of his sister playing the piano. The simple sight of seeing the young girl at the keys seemed to lift the weight off of the group of friends’ shoulders. A vale of sadness was lifted at that moment, the moment where Amanda began to play on the keys.

“You know,” Michelle began taking Robert’s hand as Amanda finished the song. “I have a better idea. Jack has a room full of instruments. How about, instead of having it at our house, you can come over here any time you want and play with your brother, maybe…” Her green gaze moved to Jack with a soft smile on her face. “If you ask your brother nicely he’ll allow you to have a key to the house and give you the security code so that you can come in here and play when you want. I bet if you ask even more nicely, he’ll teach you any instrument you want to learn.” What could be a better way for them to bond again? And that way, Jack can still be in her life but they weren’t breaking any legal rules. The smile from Gwen next to him as she took Jack’s hand said she agreed.

“Well you know darling in all honesty gifts aren’t really for men at weddings we’re honestly just happy for the person we came to see but I do like the idea of having small replicas of my DeLorean given as a party favor to all the men it would be unusual while also being rather fun” Jack said smiling at Gwen happily before looking over at the wedding planner “Listen miss I know you don’t know me that well so let me tell you something about me that only a few people know. I am a perfectionist every little detail has to be absolutely, positively perfect so I am trusting you with the future of Gwendolyn and myself. While I don’t like to be mean I want to warn you though if you mess this up I can make it so where you never work in this town again” Jack said smiling at Gwen she’d know that he was only being his playful self with the wedding planner. Gwen would know that Jack could never do something as mean as getting someone like their wedding planner fired.

“You know that actually is fine with me” Robert said smiling at Michelle “We can have the music room on one side and then the bedroom on the other side of the house. Not to mention the music room will be heavily sound-proofed so where even while I’m playing music you wouldn’t be able to hear it while standing on the other side of the door to the music room” Robert said honestly.

That was when the music of the forbidden piano began wafting through the hallway which caused Jack to immediately stand up and go see who was playing the piano.

As the song ended Jack was stunned his sister was in fact the one who was playing the absolutely beautiful rendition of the most love song from Jack, Robert and now Gwen’s band The Lords of Captivating Hearts. The song was called ‘My prayer’ which was written in a dark period within Jack’s own personal life it was actually wrote about how much he loved and missed Amanda.

Robert began clapping as the song was over “Amanda darling that was absolutely beautiful the song couldn’t have been better if Jack himself had sang it” he said wanting to praise the young girl he knew she probably hadn’t received many compliments while practically being imprisoned by Jack’s ex-girlfriend and her family who never wanted Jack to see his sister again.

Amanda blushed which really made her face turn a really cute pinkish color she wasn’t used to compliments so she was really embarrassed and when she was embarrassed she got very shy for some odd reason. So without missing a beat she hopped off the bench and ran as fast as she could toward Michelle the woman who had earlier told her that she was Amanda’s new mommy. As she ran her bare feet slapping softly against the marble floor. As she got around the couch she hopped onto the couch and crawled over to Michelle and she pushed herself up against Michelle as if trying to hide inside of her. Slowly she looked up her own beautiful blue eyes looking up into the eyes of Michelle. Her voice came out in an adorable, almost inaudible squeak “Mommy save me” she said pushing herself more into Michelle’s side. Amanda looked up at Michelle however when she started speaking about how she would let Amanda come over to Jack’s house and get taught how to play any instrument she could want from her brother so they could have a bonding moment between the two if it was alright with Jack. Amanda’s blue eyes got big as she stared at Jack awaiting his answer she was so excited that her little frame was shaking. “Really?? Please, please, please Jackie can I come over and play instruments with you.. Pleaaaaaaaase?”

Jack looked from Gwen to Michelle back to Gwen before answering “Well I don’t see the harm in that. As long as you two as well as you Gwen are alright with it then I personally have don’t have a problem with it. I could always use some more time with my adorable kid sister I mean we’ve been separated for so long that it was unbearable. So whenever you want to princess” Jack took his keys out of his pocket as he pulled a spare key from the keychain and walked over kneeling in front of his sister as he handed her the key “This is the key but before you open the door you need to put in the passcode four, seven, thirteen” he said knowing that his sister would get the reference.

“Wait four, seven thirteen. Momma used to sing us a song that she had wrote. It was a really long Italian name that we didn’t want to say even though we knew Italian so you, mom and I sat down and we decided to call the song four, seven thirteen because that was all three of our favorite numbers” Amanda said remembering vaguely where the numbers came from. She also remembered that her mother used to use the song as a lullaby to put her to sleep. “How does that song go again” she asked out loud she did it as if to try to get herself to remember not actually talking to anyone else.

Robert smiled as he watched what would become his new daughter hop off the piano and run to Michelle using her as a shield like a normal child would do with a mother. Which meant a lot to him because now he had his own family. Yes it would be larger because he had always wanted to adopt children in need but for right now Michelle, Amanda, Jack and Gwen were his family and they were the best family he could’ve ever asked for.

Jack stood slowly from his kneeling position and he went to sit on the piano. Lightly running his finger’s across it. Even he hadn’t touched this piano in years because it hurt him every time he did. For when he touched this piano it would make him remember the good life with his mother which would then make him think of his sister and that caused him to hurt and cry. Which he never wanted to do so this piano had become forbidden until Amanda had played it today. Everything was running through his mind and while some things in his past were vague and he couldn’t remember them clearly one thing he did in fact remember was being a small child sitting beside his mother on this exact piano while she played him the song that would eventually become the song known as four, seven thirteen. Jack’s eyes closed shut as his fingers began playing the keys as a beautiful melody rang from the keys being hit the silence only lasted for a few seconds as Jack began singing the words to the song in an operatic tone. This was something he had never let no one know he could do. Not Gwen, Robert, Michelle of Amanda. As he sang his voice boomed powerfully yet still beautiful. He truly sounded like an opera singer as he sang the song and with the power and emotion he sang the song with it was easy to know why Italian was called the language of love. As he finished he sat there looking at everyone to see their reaction. He had never had the courage to sing opera in front of anyone even though he did so beautifully. So he wanted to see the face of everyone in the room since they had heard him for the first time.

No one informed Gwen just how difficult it would be to plan a wedding, especially when the wedding had become the talk of the century in the media. Press was outside of their gated home almost every day screaming out questioned and bombarding the workers as they would bring in things in order to set up for the grand day. Chaos happened when her father began truck in (literally, seven trucks full of food and cookware) and set up a grilling station in the back and commandeered the kitchen for prepping and cooking food. It was alright by Jack and Gwen to have this happen though it did make getting breakfast for the few days before the wedding awkward.

The night before the big day, the girls escaped to a nearby spa; Michelle insisting that they have a girl’s day and night of just relaxing before one of the biggest days of Gwen’s life. They talked almost all day and night about the upcoming wedding. Surprisingly enough, not like at her first attempt at a wedding, Gwen was not nervous at all; in fact she was rather excited. She was going to give herself completely to the single individual she knew would love her until the very end. Though she did have a small fear in the pit of her stomach that Michelle would come in just before she was due to walk out and be told that Jack was nowhere to be found. Much like Rocky did on their wedding day, that horrible day was about be erased from her memory and replaced with one of the most blessed days of her life.

The day finally arrived, her dad and prepared a cake to feed the massive amount of people that were showing up, the ceremony was scheduled to be a short one with only Robert and Michelle as the maid of honor and best man and Amanda as the flower girl. Gwen was given a tour of everything first, since she needed more time to get ready compared to Jack. “Everything looks stunning!!” She said with a giggle of excitement as she looked around the walking area were the small group had rehearsed last night went over to the seating area where everyone was going to eat the expertly catered and created dinner that her father had put together.

Soon she was dressed, and ready to walk down the aisle after the photographer felt like he had enough shots of her and everyone else aside from Jack. She stood at in the little tent with her father waiting for the moment for her to walk out. He whispered to her how proud and happy he was that she had found Jack and that she looked beautiful and how proud her mother would be. Letting out a small sigh to calm herself down the wedding march music started and the curtain opened, doves flew out to elegant her entrance and she made her way down the aisle arm and arm with her father in her specially picked out wedding dress. There were grins from every person they had invited as she finally made her way to the small stage and hugged her dad good bye before he took his seat.

At the altar, the preacher talked before they exchanged their vows, Gwen went first. “Jack, I take you as you are, loving who you are now and who you are yet to become. I promise to listen to you and learn from you, to support you and accept your support. I will celebrate your triumphs and mourn your losses as though they were my own. I will love you and have faith in your love for me, through all our years and all that life may bring us. I love you unconditionally and without hesitation. I vow to love you, encourage you, trust you, and respect you. As a family, we will create a home filled with learning, laughter, and compassion. I promise to work with you to foster and cherish a relationship of equality knowing that together we will build a life far better than either of us could imagine alone. Today, I choose you to be my husband. I accept you as you are, and I offer myself in return. I will care for you, stand beside you, and share with you all of life’s adversities and all of its joys from this day forward, and all the days of my life.”
“Today, I promise you this: I will laugh with you in times of joy, and comfort you in times of sorrow. I will share in your dreams and support you as you strive to achieve your goals. I will listen to you with compassion and understanding, and speak to you with encouragement. Together, let us build a home filled with learning, laughter and light, shared freely with all who may live there. Let us be partners, friends and lovers, today and all of the days that follow. Jack Michael Lawrence Stacera, with this ring; I thee wed.” With that, she slid the ring she had picked out for him onto his ring finger.

Jack knew that planning a wedding would be hard but having Gwen beside him helping to make most of the decisions regarding the wedding planning which went smoothly. The days passed by very slowly to the point where each day felt like it dragged on for an entire week by itself and eventually Gwen got her dress brought in to the house and hidden and it was on that day that Jack decided that since he had the most money he going to leave the house and instead get a room in a fancy hotel until the day of the marriage since he was very superstitious and believed wholeheartedly that the groom was not to see the bride during the days before the wedding.

The day before the wedding however Robert showed up at the door to his fancy suite and knocked on the door.

Jack walked to the door and opened it happily seeing his brother “Robert it’s so nice to see you before you start I’m sorry I don’t want to hear what is happening at the house I want it all to be a surprise tomorrow when I see it completely finished” he said smiling.

“Well I’m not here to talk I’m here to drinks some beer’s watch a football game and maybe go to a strip club” Robert said the last part jokingly as he gave a smile to Jack before holding up the case of beer he had brought so where Jack and himself could drink and have a boy’s night before the day where Jack and Gwen would be married.

The next few hours went good with Robert and Jack drinking and watching football. Though as three ‘o’ clock came around he knew he had to get back home to watch Amanda not knowing whether or not that Gwen and Michelle would take her along with them for their girls night out though he was certain the girls would take her. Robert stood up smiling as he hugged Jack “see you tomorrow darling.”

Jack got dressed in a very expensive tuxedo and made his way to his home and walked immediately back to where he would be standing having been nervous about this day for a week now since he hoped he would be the perfect husband for Gwen because she deserved to have a loving husband and partner in life.

Robert smiled as the music started and walked down the aisle arm in arm with his own fiancée Michelle until they got to the stage he helped his fiancée onto it and stood beside Jack as they waited for Gwen to march down to the wedding march.

Jack watched as the song began and Gwen walked down the aisle in her absolutely amazing beautiful dress once she got to the stage he helped her onto it. Within minutes everything was happening and Jack was crying since he heard the beautiful vows that Gwen had wrote for him before his ring was placed on.

“Alright now Jack you have written your own vows for Gwen as well. But before we get to Jack’s vows Amanda, Robert and Jack want to play a song written directly for Gwen on this special occasion” the preacher said happily as two pianos and an acoustic guitar was brought out. Amanda’s piano was a huge black grand piano with a picture of Gwen and Jack when they first got together painted on the top of it. Robert’s guitar had a painting of Michelle and Robert on it and Jack’s piano a white grand piano had a painting of Gwen only on it above her head though said ‘The heart and love of Jack Stacera.’

Amanda walked to the piano and began playing the song her brother had taught her.

Robert walked to the guitar and played along with Amanda as well.

Jack stepped down from the stage and went to the white piano and sat down before playing the piano as well before singing to Gwen he had wrote a song for her that let her know just how beautiful she was, how much he loved her and how he wanted to spend the rest of their lives together the song lasted for several minutes and it was truly moving with how much emotion he was singing to her. After the song was over Jack smiled as he moved from the piano and went to stand beside Gwen once again and took her hand in his smiling at her.

“Alright Mr. Stacera has wrote his own vows which he shall recite now” The preacher said smiling.

Jack took both of Gwen’s hands in his own before taking a breath “Gwendolyn, I vow to put you before myself at all times. I vow to honor you as my wife, my best friend, and my partner for life. I'm marrying myself to you in body and spirit. For every story I tell with my life. I want to tell it with you. For every hard time we endure I want to endure it with you. For every good memory we make, I want to celebrate it with you. In all things I want us to keep God at the heart of our relationship because he gives us all good things and carries us through all trials even as we lean on each other. Also I am honored enough to have been given the most wonderful, kind, loving and beautiful angel that has ever been given to Earth by the almighty God above. I also want to bless you with all that I have, and serve you in every way I can. I promise always to respect you and love you. With kindness, unselfishness and trust, I will work by your side to create a wonderful life together. I take you Gwendolyn Taylor to be my lawful wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health for as long as we both shall live” with that he pulled the ring out of his pocket and slid it onto Gwen’s finger (the ring like everything else he had gotten her was absolutely extravagant and expensive.)

Jack had always been someone who was emotional guy so when he shed some tears after her vows, it wasn’t a surprise to the audience and Gwen that he cried. When he went to the microphone and Amanda and Robert joined him her heart went to her chest in surprise and soon it was her turn to drop tears of joy at the song he had written for her. He was so gifted and talented and they had bounded so well that it was an incredible feeling. And so hard to believe that the only reason they met was because Michelle drug her to the concert. Who would have thought the two would hit it off so well; much less become married.

When he came back to speak his vows, she pushed the tears away from her caramel colored eyes and sniffled softly to the audience’s reaction of “Aw” at her emotional state which just made her laugh softly before giving her attention back to Jack who had taken her hand and slipped the additional rings onto her finger, one behind the engagement ring and one in the front. A loud gasp left her as he slid the set of three onto her small finger. From miles away you knew this girl was taken and taken by the man she loved.

“I now pronounce you man and wife. Jack you may kiss your bride.” Before Jack could say anything, Gwen jumped into his arms, throwing her bare arms around his neck and pressed her full glossy pink lips against his; so so very happy to call herself Mrs. Gwendolyn Stacera! She pulled back from the kiss and rested her forehead against her husband’s with a large un-mistakable grin, she was happy and there was no doubt about that.

When they two started down the alley she just beamed, barely able to take her eyes off of her husband as they continued down hand and hand. It happened, they really got married and now they were off to the reception.

Dancing dancing dancing! The back yard where tables and chairs were set up and the waiting staff eagerly awaited to help the guests, most people were found on the dance floor dancing to the live bands that insisted on rotating through playing songs for the couple. Gwen was a bit bombarded upon arrival by the photographers that were hired to take photos of the occasion. This whole dating/engagement/marriage to a famous person was a bit overwhelming and since they weren’t very public with their wedding she wouldn’t be surprised if the press was up in arms for information about the wedding. For now she just smiled at the cameras, her arm through Jack as she leaned into her new husband beaming. Soon the photographers left them alone and she let out a breath of air as she was able to look out upon their guests dancing and enjoying the celebration of their marriage.

“Everyone’s so happy.” Gwen said before she turned her gaze up to her husband, “But I don’t think anyone’s more happy than me.”

Jack cleared his throat as he came back onstage he knew of all people that Gwen would absolutely love the song that Robert, Amanda and himself had wrote for just this occasion. The song was something special he had wrote without Gwen knowing. As he saw the tears in her eyes he lightly rubbed her eyes loving her passionately before once again grabbing her small hand with his own. He slipped all three of the bands onto her fingers. Though as he looked at her bands on her small fingers all that Jack could think about was how large the rings as well as the jewels in them looked on her fingers. "Gladly" Jack said as the reverend stated that he could kiss his bride. Before he could do anything though Gwen had already jumped into his arms and was kissing him so he kissed her back passionately loving the fact that he had married the woman that he loved more than anything in the entire world.

"It's so wonderful to see our best friends getting married isn't it darling" Robert asked as he wrapped his arm around Michelle "Just think in a few month's my love we will be the one's standing up there with our best friends as our best man and maid of honor just like we are doing for them now" these words made Robert's heart skip a beat in a good way. For his entire life and all the hell he had been through marriage was something that he promised himself would never happen. The reason was because he had witnessed what happened to married people with his mom and dad before they had killed themselves because of heartbreak. Yet here was Robert now years later and finally he understood all of the lyrics that Jack had wrote for the love songs because now he felt that way towards Michelle.

Amanda was wearing a beautiful pink dress with a floral pattern, her hair was in cute pigtails which she was happy about. She had always wanted to have her hair this way but Jack's ex-girlfriend had never let her have her freedom but the night before Michelle had done her hair in all kinds of different hairstyles from different braids to different styles of hair. Which had made Amanda very happy because she could tell that at times Michelle was very tired but the woman had never stopped helping her do these things until Amanda herself feigned drowsiness and pretended to fall asleep. Even then Michelle stayed there all night just holding Amanda in her arms which made Amanda feel loved, respected and well...Safe. Slowly she made her way over to Michelle and just hugged her tightly with no warning at all which is up until now something that the young girl never had done "thank you for taking me into your family. Allowing me to finally feel like I am worth something."

In the next hour the night really lit up as everyone began the celebration and you could tell that Jack hadn't spared even a single penny to make this the greatest party that it could be. The large cake had been cut and dished out, the alcohol (Which consisted of expensive wine, champagne, beer for the people with simpler tastes and even a few bottles of hundred dollar scotch for all the adults were being served by waiter's all of which were in uniform as well as the cups of juice for all of the children that had been brought to the wedding.

Jack smiled as he held Gwen around her waist happily as he watched everyone go about their own business until he heard Gwen talking "Well darling we are surrounded by friends they are all happy to see us as happy as we are. Not to mention darling it is kind of hard not to have fun" he said smiling "I mean you of all people should know Mrs. Stacera that no one knows how to throw a party like your husband" he said teasingly the only reason he said that was that he loved the fact he could refer to her as his wife finally. "Though you know darling we'll have to eventaly let the press know so how about instead of them following us every single place they can. You and I go outside and give them an interview now. Does that sound alright with you?"
