40-The Wedding Lucy's POV

It's been four week's since I've been released from the hospital. Luna some how became seriously attached to me, and barely wants Zane. That itself is really getting hard on him. She will go to him when she has no choice, especially when he is the only one around at that time.

I have been pretty busy helping Lizzie to plan her wedding. Aunt Rita and Uncle Rick refuse to let her have a wedding like I had. There was nothing wrong with my wedding; it was just too impromptu for them. Lizzie and Ryder suggested the beach where he was going to take her to propose. I think that's a great idea.

"What do you think of these colors?" Lizzie asks showing me swatches of the colors she had picked out. It was a teal and crème color.

"I like them! Those colors are really pretty." I say.

"Hi girls, are you wedding planning?" My mom says walking into the kitchen, glancing over everything that Lizzie has spread out on the table. "Oh Lizzie, those colors are beautiful!"

"We are and thank you Martha! I think they are the winners then." She says excited! "Martha since you did a great job on the flowers for Lucy's wedding, will you please help with my flowers?"

"No problem! I'll get started. Anything special or any recommendations of what you would like?" Martha asks.

"Nope, I'm sure you will pick something perfect." She says smiling.

"Thank you for the confidence Lizzie." Martha smiles, and walks away.

"So you got Luna to stay with Zane?" Lizzie asks.

"Yes! Imagine that, I don't know what has gotten into her.

"She missed her mama Lucy."

"Zane is awesome with her though, it's actually heartbreaking when she won't go to him."

"Lucy it will happen many times. There will be times that she wants Zane and not you."

"That's true Lizzie. So you have the colors picked out, Martha is handling the flowers, we should work on getting the venue and dresses. Will Ryder be handling the tuxes and stuff?"

"Well I booked the section of the beach we want to use. Ryder and I need to agree on the day and call them to confirm. I've actually picked some dresses out already. So do you think Zane can hang with Luna tomorrow and the girls go check them out?"

"I am sure that will be fine. When did you get all the dresses picked out?"

"I went into town a few days ago and saw this cute little bridal shop and went in to see what they had. I found my dress and dress for you all. Oh and my mom is handling the food and traveling arrangements."

"Wow! I'm amazed!" I say. "Well it sounds like there really isn't much more to do."

"Not at all. Lucy I have a secret too."

"Uh oh! I don't like secrets. What's wrong?"

"Ryder and I were going to do the engagement thing for a year to two years, and well I kind of found out I was pregnant and my mom will freak out."

"So is that why we are getting the wedding done quick?"

"Yes. I don't want my mom to freak out with having a baby before even getting married."

"I get it. So let's get this done and schedule it a week from today. That way we have time for the travel, Aunt Rita can handle the food and we can get our dresses. Oh and congrats! Yay I'm going to be an aunt!"

"You are not mad?" Lizzie asks.

"Not at all. I'm happy for you. How does Ryder feel about it?"

"He is really happy, especially after falling love with Luna when she was born."

"Awe, that's really cute Lizzie!"

"Thank you Lucy, you have no idea how much your support means to me."

************************************************

Arriving at the bridal shop, Lizzie has the sale representative bring out all of the dresses she picked for all of us to wear and surprisingly they are not too bad. Lizzie has gone with an elegant wedding dress, lace collar, sleeveless and a train covered in the same lace as her chest.

The matron of honor dress is a gorgeous crème, strapless dress with teal to accent the top of the dress. It flows out to the knees and the same teal color lines the bottom of the dress and a lacy teal belt. That would be the dress I will be wearing and I totally approved of it.

Jamie and Serena's dress are the same and almost like mine but a halter strap instead of strapless. They seem to be pretty happy with the dress choices as well, so we all got set up for the alterations.

After we were done with the dresses we went to grab something to eat, which was only literally a block from the bridal shop. The guys apparently had already taken care of their tuxes and that impresses me because they had them done last week.

Aunt Rita set up the travel arrangements for everyone and she had the food items picked out, along with the cake and deserts. The invites had all gone out and we are just waiting on the RSVP's. I cannot believe how fast this is all coming together and how easy it's coming together.

"Well since Lucy is the only one to know I guess I will fill you girl's in. I am pregnant." Lizzie caves in and tells them.

"I knew it!" Jamie said.

"How did you know?" Lizzie asks.

"Um well I did see the test, just out in the open in your garbage can the day I went to use your bathroom." Jamie says with a smirk on her face.

"Shit! I didn't even think about that!"

"Well then good thing, this wedding is being planned quickly, that way mom and dad won't know that it happened before the wedding."

"Ha yeah Jamie, you are so right."

We finish up lunch and head back home. The guys are all piled up in my living room watching Naked and Afraid XL. Luna is napping in her crib, and has been there for the last two hours.

"No farm work today?" I ask.

"We are done for the day, we had an early start." Dad says.

"Well we got our dresses; they are being altered for the wedding." I say.

"Awesome! This time next week I'll be married to my beautiful Lizzie!" Ryder exclaims and everyone laughs at him.

I plop down on the couch next to Zane and he throws his arm over my shoulder, while Lizzie takes a seat on Ryder's lap and Jamie and Serena take a seat on the floor. Zane kisses the top of my head and I lay my head against his shoulder.

***********************************************

Today is the wedding and everyone is running around trying to finish up the last minute things for the wedding. Martha is chasing the florist around making sure the flowers are where they need to be, Aunt Rita is with caterers making sure the food order is correct, Zane jumped in to make sure the decorations are put up correctly and Jamie and Serena are setting chairs up for the ceremony.

Paul and Travis are taking care of the reception set up that's off to the side of where the ceremony will be held. Joe is bouncing around the beach with Luna Uncle Rick is getting the tuxes set up. I am making sure the dresses are hung up and that Lizzie's wedding dress is ready.

Aunt Rita had hired our cousins Eddie and Tom the twins to do the photography and music. Jeremy, Jake and Hannah are setting up the tables with the wedding favors. Jake is the ring bearer and Hannah is the flower girl while Jeremy gets to walk her down the isle. They all wanted a part in the wedding.

I glance out the window to the section of the beach where the wedding is being set up and it looks gorgeous. Lizzie is pacing back and forth talking about how nervous she is and I can hear Ryder in the next room with music blaring. I need to go next door to make sure he's sober.

"Lizzie I'm going to run down and make sure everything is in order. I will be right back."

"You better come back and you better make it fast. I need help!"

"Lizzie the hair stylist and the makeup artist will be here in fifteen minutes." I assure her walking out of the room.

I walk next door and pound on Ryder's door. He swings it open and he looks like he is a ball of nerves. "Oh good, you are here Lucy!" He says pulling me into the room with him. His ice blue eyes pierce through mine and I can tell that he has been drinking.

"Ryder, what the hell are you thinking?" I ask my eyes narrowing at him.

"I'm not drunk, I promise you. I need help. Can you please do something with this?" He asks pointing to his hair.

I can't help but giggle at him and he relaxes a bit and his dimples show. I pull him into the bathroom and grab so water to wet his hair, and then I take a little bit of hair gel and rub it into my palms spreading it evenly through his soft blond hair. I then take the hair dryer and blow it back so it's sort of slicked back but free flowing at the same time.

"There you go, how does that look?" I ask.

"Perfect! You are a life saver, thank you so much Lucy."

"No more drinking and it is almost time to get out there. Get dressed and I'm going to run down and make sure everything is ready."

"Tell my men to get up here and get dressed already." Ryder says as I step out of his door.

Lizzie is standing in the hallway fury in her eyes. "Lucy, why were you in there with him?"

"Calm down. I was just in there to help him with his hair. He was having a hair malfunction." I gingerly say laughing.

"So you didn't even go down and make sure everything is ok?' Lizzie places her hands on her hips and slowly is turning into the bridezilla.

"Lizzie I have this. Please chill out. I'm going to go down now and get Jamie and Serena to come up and get dressed."

Just as I was about to turn around and head down the hall way the girls are here to all of our makeup and hair with Jamie and Serena behind them. Jamie let us know that everything's ready and that we all just need to get dressed and get our hair and makeup done. She also says that Zane, Paul and Travis are on their way up also.

"Thank goodness you all came up; let's get this show on the road." Lizzie says.

The makeup artist says. "I'll start the make up on the bride while Emma starts the hair on the girls."

Once we are all done we grab our dresses and slip them on. Once in my dress I go over to Lizzie and help her into her dress. I have a hard time getting it zipped and try the best I can but I think she may have put some more baby weight on.

"Lizzie did you let the seamstress know that you were pregnant?" I ask.

"No! I didn't need her to know since that's where mom and Martha got their dresses from too."

"Lizzie you are going to need to suck it in just a little bit." I pull as much as I can, trying not to tear the dress. Finally I get the dress to zipper all the way up. "Are you ok? Can you breathe?"

"I'm good." She breaths.

I look up and everyone is dressed. We all look beautiful but most of all Lizzie looks gorgeous. Hannah comes in wearing her dress and carrying all of our flowers. She hands Lizzie her bridal bouquet and hands all of us our bouquets. They too, turned out beautiful!

Hannah looks adorable in her flower girl dress and she's holding her little basket with little white, pink and red rose petals in it. Lizzie smiles at her and bends down to kiss her cheek.

"I'll run over to make sure the boys are ready." I say.

Tapping on the door, Zane opens the door and as soon as he sees me, his eyes light up. He kisses me softly and spins me around to take a look at me. I smile and embrace this moment.

"Is everyone ready?" I ask.

"Yes, we were getting ready to head down."

"Ok, get moving so we can get down there too."

He winks and walks into the room telling the guys that the coast is clear and they need to go now. He cracks the door open to say bye and that he loved me. He gives me the biggest smile and blows a kiss to me and I pretend like I caught it and put it to my heart.

After I watched the boys head down the hall to the elevator, we give it a few more minutes, then head down ourselves. Before getting off the elevator I peak out to make sure Ryder is no where to be found. My dad comes running over to tell me I look beautiful and says that they are just waiting on all of us and Ryder is already standing at the alter. Uncle Rick comes over to get Lizzie and the girl's line up with the boys.

Zane walks me down after Hannah and Jeremy had gone. Jamie follows with Paul and Serena follows with Travis. Once Lizzie appears with Uncle Rick there is a lot of oooo's and ahhhh's. She truly does look beautiful, and Ryder feels the same because I can see his eyes well up with tears.

The ceremony was simple and short, they said their I do's and the minister announces that the groom may kiss the bride. They break from their kiss and Ryder scoops Lizzie into his arms and carries her up the aisle to the reception area. Everyone gets up and follow them.

We danced, we ate, we drank, and we had a great time. This wedding sure came together perfectly and couldn't ask for a better happy ending for all of than we have now. We have faced heartache, sickness, break ups, deaths and more and we all came out tough in the end.
