Final Chapter, soooooooo sorry it took so long, but I have a life you know.
Zoey stood outside the door to the ball room. She reached gingerly for the doorknob, looking down the hall before even laying a finger on it. Looks like I'm walking down the isle alone, Zoey thought. She had asked her dad to attend, but he hadn't replied. She twisted the doorknob only to hear "Zoey!"
"Dad?" she smiled, tears almost forming in her eyes. "What are you doing here?"
"I came to walk my daughter down the isle of course."
"Well, you're a little late," she said with a smile.
"You're mother is never ready on time."
"She's here too!"
"Yeah, she snuck in. You ready, Sweetie?"
"Yes." He opened the door and for a moment, everything seemed to stop.
Mal stood their, his jaw hanging open. She's so beautiful. Her dress reached the floor and trailed behind her, with a black bow that tied around her hip. He smiled, This is really happening, he thought.
This is really happening, she thought as she neared the alter.
They recited their vows, looking lovingly into each others eyes. It was official, they were married now. Husband and wife. Zoey could still feel the ring on her finger, and Mal's warm hands when he had placed it on her finger.
"You look beautiful, Sweetie," her mom said as they ate the black and white wedding cake.
"Thanks, I'm glad you two came."
"Well it's your big day. We might not like it, but it's too important to miss out on."
"Alright everyone, time for the couple's dance," Dawn announced. A slow song was turned on, Mal took Zoey's hand and lead her to the middle of the floor. The black ceiling was dotted with white lights, almost like stars, with white flowers everywhere, creating the perfect setting. Mal plucked a white rose from one of the many bouquets and placed it in Zoey's hair.
"I love you," they said at the same time. They laughed and kissed before they began the dance. They wrapped their arms around each other, her head rested on his chest, his head leaning against hers. Everything was perfect. They were together, and nothing could make them happier.
