Wedding time! I hope you are all dressed nice.
I don't own Liberty's Kids or any of it's characters.
Night Before the Wedding:
It had been almost a week since James has snuck out to see Sarah and despite being in Philadelphia again he still couldn't see her. Some silly old wives tale about seeing the bride on her wedding night being bad luck. Frankly he could care less, all he wanted was to see Sarah. So once again he found himself sneaking into Dr. Franklin's print shop and standing in front of Sarah's door. He was about to enter when he remembered he couldn't "see" her, so he knocked.
"Who is it?" Sarah's sleepy voiced called out.
"It's me." He whispered back. He heard a noise from behind the door then Sarah whispered reply from the other side, "What is God's name are you doing here! Don't you know what tomorrow is?"
"How could I forget." James said grinning, "It's the day I legally claim you, the most beautiful lady in the whole world, as mine."
"So shush James," He heard Sarah mutterer and knew she was blushing, "I'm serious here."
"As am I." James said solemnly, "I've missed you and couldn't wait another second of not seeing you."
"I've missed you too James." He heard her reply, "But I am tired and need my rest, as do you. If I do not get rest I will look like a mess tomorrow."
"I could care less." James said, "I would still marry you, but I understand you may go to sleep. I will stay here thought because I cannot stand another second away from you."
"Okay James." He heard her say knowing she was smiling, "Goodnight."
"Night Sarah," James said leaning against her door and was found there the next morning by Dr. Franklin. Chuckling Dr. Franklin nudged James with his shoe, "Get up sleepy it's your wedding day." James woke blinking his eyes before jumping to his feet grinning, "That's right." He said then began to walk down the hall, "Well I best get ready." Dr. Franklin shook his head as he watched the young boy run off.
Later:
James stood anxiously by the alter in his best royal blue suit. He kept taking his hat off and juggling it between his hands before putting it back on. Most of the guest has arrived. He saw Abigail and John Adams with their family, Henri and Lafayette, Moses, Dr. Franklin and even George Washington himself! Most of the guests were friends they had made through reporting seeing how James' family died in a fire and Sarah's was mostly in England. Suddenly the music started and everyone stood. James head snapped to the back of the church ad the sight he saw stole the breath right from him. There stood the most beautiful bride he had ever seen. She was wearing a white gown, her hair down framing her face and then her eyes meet his and very slowly, almost as if time itself had slowed, made her way down the aisle.
Sarah gripped her bouquet and father's arm like they were her anchors to Earth as she slowly made her way to James, her eyes never leaving his. Suddenly she stood right in front of him. James looked so happy, his eyes twinkling with joy. Sarah gave him a smile and took his hands, still looking into his eyes as the priest began to ramble. She almost missed her "I do's", but James almost did too. Finally they heard the priest say, "You may…" but that's all he got out as James swooped in kissing her like his life depended on it, and she retaliated just as strongly. When they pulled back they both laughed and James leaned forward again, giving her a quick kiss before leading her out of the church.
"The sooner we get this over with the sooner I can have you all to myself." James whispered causing Sarah to blush. The after party was mostly conversation and when James finally had had enough he took Sarah and announced they were leaving. He then led her to a waiting carriage and put a blindfold on her.
"Where are we going?" Sarah asked but James just chuckled. When the carriage came to a stop James helped Sarah out then stood behind her.
"Welcome home." He whispered into her ear removing the blindfold. Sarah stared in awe for a moment before James lifted her off her feet and carried her inside the shop to start their new life…together.
There you go guys! It's completed! Sorry it took forever but I finished it. I hope you enjoyed it.
