Chapter 10

They day of the wedding couldn't come fast enough, at least that's how Bloom felt, she and the others went to Magix to search for a wedding dress, though kept getting glances from the store clerk, even when they had an alibi, they told her that they were looking for a dress for someone else, to hold it for her for later, it took two hours, but Bloom finally settled upon a slim dress with minimal frills at the bottom, Stella paid for it, and they went back to their dorms, everything had been quiet since her last run in with the Trix, and she was grateful, it meant that they had been in SO much trouble, they couldn't get away, no doubt in lock down, unable to teleport, Bloom hung the dress up and waited some more, only a few more hours, it was noon and the wedding was at 5, she petted Kiko absentmindedly, staring out a window, Musa sat beside her and tilted her head.

"Uh, hmm, well he said he'd have it all planned out, he said to go to the clearing in the forest, where you first talked, and you'd be teleported to the chapel, easy, but the hard part is getting out and being gone for a hour or two"

"There wont be a reception, just a wedding and then we're heading straight to the honeymoon" Bloom replied quickly and softly, Musa nodded

"You look tense, but they say that's normal, and to be unsure too, but the thing to remember is, how much you love him and how he loves you, and that this is the best thing ever, and you'll have nothing to worry about" Musa turned to look at Bloom, and stifled a yawn "darn it afternoon sleepies" she finished, rubbing her eyes

"I know I have nothing to worry about, I just dislike waiting, if something is going to happen, i'll speed it up if I have to...but then he'd know" Bloom smiled some, "and he'd say I was impatient, that I should have waited, so fine, I will, but hey, I never said i'd find it fun or easy" Bloom finished with a slight nod, the rest of the afternoon went by, like most saturday afternoons, and Bloom, as usual was grateful, she didn't even get any more problems from Sky, another good thing, and as 5 neared closer, she felt more and more sure, that this would be the best day ever, in her entire life, she figured she'd explain to her earth parents later, like the day after, what else could she do, then she decided to send them a letter, and hope for the best, she had tried her best to explain it all, in the hopes they'd be understanding and be supportive, which she felt on the fence about, but felt a stable feeling of reassured, so she felt she could face things with enough confidence.

Diaspro was holding Sky, just like she wanted to, and he'd drank the potion, just as planned, and like she planned, he fell for her again, and was reminded of why they were engaged in the first place, which was good, she didn't want to lose him again, and now, neither did he, he'd stay and love her forever, just in the way she wanted, she'd even gotten him to purpose again and renew their vows for marriage, it would be a week, but she'd managed to settle on a date, the next friday of next week, and it would be the happiest day of her life, and she knew he felt the same, and as they walked through the gardens, she felt everything slip into place, her hand in his.

The time was upon them, Bloom and the others snuck out and went to the clearing in the forest, there in her wedding dress, Bloom stood and waited for the teleport to work, and as it did, she closed her eyes and smiled, knowing she was about to make the best decision of her life, Aisha and the others were in whatever dresses they had, or should say Stella had, and readied themselves, they had reappeared in a hallway, adjacent to a large room, in a doorway, while the others filed in, Stella took Bloom's arm and waited with her, her cheeks pink, not only from makeup, but she suspected nerves, here Stella was, escorting Bloom to her happily ever after, and sooner than she thought, but Bloom could tell that she was happy. Stella waited for the cue, and then led Bloom along the aisles, and there, at the altar, stood Valtor, his smile warm and inviting, as she neared, he held out his hand, the priest saying what he needed to, and Stella let go of her, allowing her to take Valtor's hand, and there they stood, saying their vows and exchanging the rings, her ring glittering and small, his, medium and a solid band, then came the I do's and Bloom leapt at the chance, kissing Valtor with all she had, him grinning into it and kissing back, finally, they were wed, and she knew, they would live happily ever after, anything that would happen later, she knew she could deal with, after all, her dream had come true, and as she lay in Valtor's arms, her confidence only soared higher.

Note: this was as far as it goes, the rest we leave up to the readers, as this is the happy ending we wanted :) sorry was so SUPER slow, got lazy :P
