Happy birthday to me! As a celebration, I'll be finishing up this story, hope you like it!

Of course she wouldn't be wearing white today, or any day that is. I guess it didn't really matter what we wear today, our ceremony took place two months ago. Even then she had worn a light lilac, and the only reason I know it's called that is because it's the name of every candle in our house.

Our house. That thought made me smile. We no longer lived in the mansion Vlad had left for me, but rather in a brand new place that we called ours.

She finally made her way up to me, her short dark gray and black dress bouncing slightly as she dodged the people separating us.

"I'm so sorry I'm late," she whispered and gave a small smile to the couple in front of me. "The museum had a surprise field trip and it took forever to get the students back on the bus. It was a mess."

"It's okay babe." I said with a small peck to her lips. I turned to the couple I had just been talking to. "Tomar, Gabriel, this is my fiancé Sam."

"Welcome to the party." Tomar snickered. "We were almost afraid we'd have to take Dani into our own marriage if her bride didn't show up."

"That may work for you bi people, but I don't roll that way." Gabriel said with a soft slap to his fiancé's arm. "Besides, I don't share."

"Don't be hatin on the polys. They have rights too!" Tomar exclaimed loud enough for people to look over at us. Sam and I couldn't help but laugh at Gabriel's blush.

"I'm not saying they don't!" He stuttered. "I'm just saying I'm not one. We've been engaged for 10 years, you would know if I was by now."

With a final chuckle, I turned back to Sam and wrapped her in my arms. "We have probably another hour before it's official. You can still run." I teased.

"Don't be ridiculous." She said and leaned her head on my shoulder. "I would've married you two years ago if it had been legal."

"I realize that." I laughed. "If you weren't so impatient we could be doing this in a few days when it's not so busy."

"Hey, if I hadn't been impatient we probably wouldn't be together at all!" I rolled my eyes at her as she crossed her arms. "Ms. I'm-Gonna-Kiss-You-And-Not-Talk-About-It-For-Three-Days."

"I was nervous!" I protested.

"And was there any reason to be?" Sam asked with a playful smirk.

She already knew though. There was absolutely no reason for me to doubt her. She told me she loved me first, and proved it every day since. She was so considerate and passionate.

There was no doubt in my mind that she would show up today, there was no doubt in my mind that today was the beginning of the rest of our lives, there was no doubt in my mind that we belonged to each other.

And within an hour we had signed a lot more papers than expected, shared our first kiss as a married couple, and were out the door. We found our way to her favorite vegan restaurant, even though I much prefer to cook, but she said she was too tired for dishes.

And at the end of the meal, I slipped my credit card to the waitress faster than Sam could, which earned me the usual light punch to the shoulder. Little did she know the hidden motive to that gesture until I was signing the receipt with a smile.

So this story originally came from the observation that there is nearly no fics of this ship (honestly it may not even be a ship it's so unheard of) and my gay ass just had to do it. If you know of any other fics of SamxDani, feel free to let me know!
