Chapter 43
x Lucy POV x
"Hold still Lucy!" Mirajane shouted, brushing out my hair, I squirmed in annoyance. Levy just smiled at me as she was doing my make up. Hopefully, it wasn't heavy make up or a weird hairstyle that they were doing. "Lucy, you look marvelous!" Erza nodded, patting my head. She wanted to help with my appearance but it didn't turn out so good at first. Let's just say I looked like a clown. "Thanks Erza." I grinned.
"All done!" Levy announced. I was really curious so I attempted to look in the mirror but Mirajane stopped me with a glare. Shivers were sent down my spine. "I'll wait.." I mumbled. She wanted me to be totally surprised so I'll have to wait till I have the dress on and everything. Levy and the other girls went to get ready themselves while Mirajane stayed and did my hair still. "I'm so happy for you Lucy!" she squealed causing me to giggle, "Thanks Mirajane. I'm serious you know, you've been such a great help. I don't know what I would've done without you." I was waiting for a response for awhile until I finally heard her sigh, she walked in front of me and grinned deeply and did some stuff to my hair and said, "Beautiful. C'mon Lucy, no need for any gratitude just yet. Now time for your dress." I watched as she led me toward where the dress was and then smiled to myself, "Thanks everyone.."

"Rogue how do you tie this piece of crap?" I shouted drastically, tugging on the tie on my tuxedo. "Here you idiot." he muttered, fixing it, making me look stunning. "Thanks man!" I patted him on the shoulder. We were in one of the back rooms at the church and Lucy was at Fairy Tail getting ready. Both Natsu and Gray were fighting outside. Nothing out of the ordinary. "You nervous?" Rogue asked, but I just shook my head. "Why would I be?"
"The whole Fairy Tail guild is gonna be there. Sabertooth is gonna be there. It's not really your scene to do this 'affectionate' thing publicly." I sat down on a nearby chair and shrugged, "I guess I'm nervous. But I love Lucy. So whatever it takes for me to show her I love her, I'll do it." Rogue stared blankly at me for a second then grinned, "Congratulations Sting." I grinned back, "Thanks bro."
There was about 2 hours left till the wedding officially started. Me and Rogue went out and saw everyone hanging up decorations or just fixing things here and there. They did most of it yesterday so they didn't have to do much. I noticed Natsu and Gray glaring at each other from across the room and wondered why they stopped fighting. But then I saw Makarov watching them from a distance. "Have you ever heard about those stories of the groom crying?" Rogue asked. I shook my head, "Why would they cry?"
He laughed then shrugged. "You'll see." I gave a concerned face but just ignored it. "Where's Blondie? She doesn't take this long." I complained, sitting down on the ground. "Oi, get up idiot! You're wearing a white tux, don't get it dirty before your wedding even starts!"

I looked down at my dress and twirled a bit, watching it flow nicely around. "Ooo! You look so cute! Sting will love this!" I smiled and nodded. "We don't have much time left Mira. You should start getting ready." She shook her head and grabbed a beautiful white veil out from a bag she brought. "Mirajane! Where did you get that?" She just smiled and placed it neatly on my head. "Almost done.." she mumbled, placing fresh pink flowers in my hair. "Are you ready to see how beautiful you look?"
I nodded vigorously and looked in the mirror. A gasp escaped my mouth when I saw how ravishing I looked. "Wow Mira, you did a great job..."
"I know."
I giggled and twirled over and over, I just loved how the dress would flow and move swiftly. When I stopped I stared at the mirror, feeling tears swell up in my eyes. "Lucy?" Mira questioned. "Mm. I'm sorry. I know how hard everyone worked for this. I need to thank everyone after this." Mirajane placed her hand on my shoulder, "No need for that. We were happy to do this for you. Don't cry okay? Everything will be fine. You're a Fairy Tail member. Keep your head high Lucy." I nodded and smiled.
After that, Mirajane started to get ready herself. She didn't take that long though. She just showered, put her dress on, put some make up on and tied her hair up.
"You ready?"
I had this nervous feeling in the pit of my stomach but nodded. We headed for the church and when we got there Mira headed inside to tell everyone that I arrived. We were about 5 minutes early so we just had to double check if everything was ready. Soon, Master came outside and when he saw me he had waterfalls as eyes, "You look so .... beautiful my child ....."
"Don't cry Master.." He shook his head and kept weeping. Master was the one who was gonna walk beside me down the aisle. "Here," he handed me a gorgeous bouquet of flowers, "Mirajane gave me this to give to you."
x Sting POV x
I saw that everyone has arrived and now I felt really nervous. Natsu, Gray and Rouge were up with me and the girls were on the other side where Lucy was gonna be. Plus we didn't want a priest or minister so apparently Cana was gonna take that roll. I glanced over at her and saw her holding up an empty booze bottle as a microphone. "Welcome everyone!! This will be the bestttt wedding everrr! Haha, so without further a do, the bride! Lucy Heartfilia!"
Then you know, the cliche wedding music played in the background. Everyone was murmuring softly to one another and I was on the verge of puking. "Don't worry, you got this." Rogue mumbled over to me. I took a few deep breaths and sighed softly. Little Wendy and her cat walked down the aisle since she was the flower girl which got her a bunch of 'aww' and 'kawaii!' from people in the aisles. Suddenly I knew what was coming next. When the doors to the church opened and showed Lucy in her dress, words couldn't describe what I was feeling. As she was walking down the aisle and beaming a smile at me, I could feel it. C'mon Sting! Don't do this!
I could feel my eyes watering. As Lucy got closer and closer the more watery my eyes got. When she was in front of me she gave an ear to ear smile and got up on the small stage with me. Makarov looked at me and nodded, "Take good care of Lucy." I wiped my eyes multiple times and choked out my words, "Y-Yes s-sir.." I turned back to Lucy and looked at her from head to toe and felt tears slipping out of my eyes. She wiped them away with her thumb and cupped my cheek, "Why are you crying?" she whispered. I shrugged and rubbed my eyes with my fists like a baby, "....you look pretty..." I muttered getting a small shove from Rogue.
More and more tears came pouring out of my eyes causing me to start huffing, "...okay you look beautiful. I've never seen someone so beautiful.." I cried out. She laughed then held my hand, "When I first saw you I thought you were such a jerk you know? I thought to myself, 'who would ever wanna get with a guy like him?' You were so cocky and rude. Yet so charming and nice. When you first marked me I couldn't wait to find a cure. So I could go back to Fairy Tail and everything would go back to normal. But look where we are now. I honestly wasn't planning on loving you this much, but I'm glad I did." Throughout the whole time she was talking I couldn't hold myself together. What a whimp I am! I knew it was my turn but I was balling my eyes out. But I had to, so I attempted to wipe my tears away and coughed, "Sorry if my voice is messed up... but you're the most beautiful woman I've ever seen. You're the biggest headache of all time but I still love you to death. Once I saw you walk through that door I knew I was so lucky. Look," I paused, wiping more tears away, "I'm still crying. But every time I look at you I smile and I don't know why. That first time we kissed it was like electricity, I felt something. It was true what I felt. Cause Lucy Heartfila.... Eucliffe... I love you more than anything... and yeah.." I muttered.
Everyone in the aisles stood up and clapped, cheered, shouted or whistled. "KISS!" Mirajane shouted. I glanced over at Lucy but it was too late, she swung her arms around my neck and kissed me. It lasted for about a whole minute and when we were done I smiled. "So how does it feel to be a Eucliffe?"
"Pretty magical." Everyone in the church exploded with roars of screaming and clapping.
I chuckled and held her hand and slid a ring onto her finger, catching her by surprise. "No..... Sting..." she gasped. I grinned and shrugged, "To show everyone that you're married and by everyone I mean guys."
"Where did you get this? It's so pretty!" she squealed and kissed me once more. "Uh, you know that incident with my back?," she nodded, "I did a bunch of jobs so I could get that ring. The guy was a total asshole. He charge me 10,000,000 for it and I had to pay for it within a week."
"You're lying!"
"I promise. Custom made. It has your name engraved on it to."
"Why would you do that?" she hugged me. I squeezed her and kissed her, "Cause you're my wife. Duh."
"He's weak that's why he got all those wounds on his back." Rogue popped in making me punch him in the face. "I'm what?"
"I deserved that. But it was worth it." he chuckled. "Okay guys group photo!" Mirajane announced. Everyone in the church gathered around in the back and in the front and smiled. I stepped back to make room an accidentally stepped on someones shoe. And it was Natsus. "HEY YOU IDIOT! YOU MADE MY SHOE DIRTY!" he screamed, then dragged his shoes behind my leg making a brown mark on my tux. "WHAT ARE YOU, STUPID?" I screamed back. "Hey, guys break it up!" Gray said but while in the process of attempting to separate us he got hit in the face which of course ticked him off so he ended up fighting with us as well. So Rogue had to pry us all off each other.

"Guys quit it out!" I shouted, although Natsu got shoved into me making me fall backwards. Suddenly, I heard a click! and Reed yell, "Great picture!" Levy helped me up and I glared at the boys causing them to all gulp, "Gomenesai...." Gray, Natsu, Sting and Rogue bowed.
----
Later that day Reed showed us the picture and it would've been so beautiful if those idiots didn't act so childish. Everyone was smiling widely but then there was us in the middle. The boys were all attacking each other while I was in mid air falling with my mouth gaped open. But yet, I smiled down at it. "I think it's great." Sting mumbled. I glared at him once more, "Shut it."
"Hai hai."
I sighed and glanced back at the photo. "I think it's great to...."
"Really?" Sting perked up but I shot him another glare. "You're not getting off the hook so easily!"
"Okay...."
But of course when I looked at his cute frowning face I couldn't help but smile making me sigh at him once more. I sat down next to him and laid my head on his shoulder, "You're such a pain." He chuckled and kissed my head, "Love you to Blondie."
My hands trailed up from my collarbone to where the mark was. "Ne, Sting? What if you never marked me?"
"Well, I don't know. Maybe we never would've got married, fell in love, been able to kiss -- like this." Slowly and steadily, he brought his lips down onto mine and bit my lip in the process making me giggle. Though, he started to lay me down onto the bed and I already knew where this was going. "Erm, Sting? Can we, maybe not you know...."
"Oh ... yeah. Yeah of course. Is there something wrong?"
"I don't know if I'm ready to do it after losing the baby...." I looked down at my lap, feeling bad to leave Sting unsatisfied but, he lifted my chin and kissed me one last time. "Don't feel sad Blondie. I love you either way."
I smiled at him and gave him a huge hug. "Arigatou, Stingy-bee!"
"Whoa whoa whoa! That name was never supposed to be spoken ever again!" I let out a short laugh seeing his cheeks light up with embarrassment, I pulled on his cheeks, "I love you Stingy-bee!"
He yanked my ear an sighed, "Yeah yeah..."
