Chapter 17
Five Years Later
Jamie was breathing heavily, straightening his tie for probably the twentieth time already, and they hadn't even begun yet.
"Jamie relax, you look great, everything's gonna be fine." Kyle tried to reassure him.
Sean smirked a little. "Give him some credit, he's doing than either of us did, he's not freaked out yet."
Kyle laughed and Jamie shook his head. "Not helping guys."
Still he appreciated their humour and their reassurances, trying to keep him calm. He smoothed down his dark blue suit, with which he wore black shoes, a lighter blue shirt and matching tie. Kyle and Sean stood with him, Kyle in a black tux along with brown shoes, a white shirt and light blue tie. Meanwhile Sean wore black suit trousers and shoes with a white shirt. They were all getting ready for a rather important event for Jamie. It was his and Lyla's wedding, and he was nervous as hell.
"Dude, you and Lyla love each other more than anything, this is gonna be the perfect day, for both of you." Kyle told him.
Kyle and Sean were both doing their best to keep Jamie calm. Both smiling and absently touching their own rings, their respective marriages to Jenn and Cassidy taught them all too well about pre-wedding jitters after all. Thankfully their words seemed to be getting through and Jamie nodded, smiling.
"Okay then, let's do this." Jamie said, sounding a lot more confident than he felt.
So together they headed out to take their places and get ready.
Standing at the head of the room, Kyle standing with him as best man, ready for the ceremony to begin, Jamie smiled as he looked around noted those present, several of them standing out. Such as the friends from school, introduced to him by Sean. Eric, Ellery, Adam and Harv, all clad in black tuxes with matching shoes, Eric and Ellery with white shirts and a blue and red tie respectively, Adam had a black shirt and silver tie and Harv a dark blue tux and red tie.
'So many here to see us...and we've cleaned up nicely.' He thought to himself.
His thoughts were mostly a private joke in regards to Esteban Diaz, a man with a messy job, who was standing next to his own parents, Daniel at his other side. Both dressed up, Esteban in grey suit trousers with a matching jacket and shoes, along with a white shirt, Daniel in black pants, a white shirt and black shoes.
His eyes then met Yu-jin Park, dressed in a pink ankle length dress and pink flats, who smiled at him, it was clear that she too was finding the emotions of this day overwhelming and he couldn't blame her. Then the music began and everybody stood, focusing on the door as the bridesmaids entered, one after another.
Jamie suppressed a smirk as he noted Jenn's family, her brother watching one of the girl's, slack-jawed. Then Cassidy entered, clad in the same purple dress as the other bridesmaids with matching flats. Although her dress had been altered to accommodate the swell of her stomach as she entered her sixth month of pregnancy.
Then Jenn, the maid of honour, clad in a dark red strapless ankle length dress and black heels with her hair down in waves, entered, gave Jamie a reassuring smile and a loving one with her husband Kyle.
Then the music changed and Jamie felt everything around him dissolve as his gaze landed on Lyla, who by her request, entered by herself and soon locked eyes with him. She smiled widely, eyes fixed on him as she practically floated her way down the aisle as their chosen song played.
One look at you; my whole life falls in line
I prayed for you; before I called you mine
Oh I, can't believe it's true, sometimes
Oh I, can't believe it's true
She looked resplendent. Her hair was pulled back into a small bun, her make up was light and served mainly to highlight her natural beauty. Her wedding dress was strapless and had a short train as well as small flower designs over her chest, she also wore white flats and looked just perfect.
I get to love you, it's the best thing that I'll ever do
I get to love you, it's a promise I'm making to you
Whatever may come; your heart I will choose
Forever I'm yours, forever I do
I get to love you, I get to love you
Everybody watching was deeply moved by the sight of these two young people, so much in love. Anyone who didn't know them wouldn't know the horrors they had endured five years ago along with their friends. Yet it was with that very love they now showed that they overcame it and together they rebuilt their lives. With their friends by their sides and those friendships and the love that was shared between those couples had not only endured but strengthened.
The way you love, it changes who I am
I am undone and I thank God once again
Oh I, can't believe it's true, sometimes
Oh I, can't believe it's true
Lyla soon reached Jamie and their hands linked. They both looked deeply, lovingly, into each other's eyes as the ceremony began and they everybody watched them, the joy of the day filling them all as they then said their vows. Their friends and families watched them with great affection as the two began their journey as Mr. and Mrs. Townley.
I get to love you, it's the best thing that I'll ever do
I get to love you, it's a promise I'm making to you
Whatever may come; your heart I will choose
Forever I'm yours, forever I do
I get to love you, I get to love you
I get to love you, I get to love you
The two of them held each other's hands tightly, their vows spoken and their love couldn't be more obvious. They had come through the fires of those horrific times five years ago, with their friends by their sides and they came through it intact. They built their strength from the pain and terror and soon they were able to overcome their nightmares and now, they were taking the next step of their lives, together.
They say love is a journey, I promise that I'll never leave
When it's too heavy to carry, remember this moment with me
I get to love you, I get to love you
I get to love you
They looked deeply into each other's eyes, their love overflowing and finally, they sealed their marriage with a kiss.
