Chapter 32: The finale
"Oh my gosh," Dani started. "Ash! I can't do this." She said, stepping away from the window where she was looking out into the backyard; which her Mom, Step-Dad, Step-sister, Sister, Jeff and Jeff's Dad were setting up. She panicked, as she walked into the kitchen, and grabbed a jar of peanut butter and opened it. Then scooping fingers full and putting it her mouth.
"Can't do what? Eat that much peanut butter? Geeze. Slow down, girl!" She said grabbing the jar from her hand.
Danielle shot a look at her. "No, I can't get married!" She said, then grabbing the jar back.
Ashley rose an eyebrow. "What? Why! I thought you loved Jeff?" She questioned.
"I do! I really do. I just, I don't know. I guess I'm just nervous. That's all."
"Sweetie, don't worry about it. Nothing is going to change. You guys are already living together, and have a baby on the way. That's going to stay the same. The only thing that is going to change is you're last name." She smiled.
Dani smiled. "You're right. I don't know why I'm so nervous! Marriage is just a piece of paper with two peoples names on it."
"Exactly!" Ashley smiled as she noticed Matt walking into the room. "Hey babe." She said then kissing him.
"Hey." He said. "Here Dan, I got the mail for you. Jeff wanted to bring it inside to you, but I made him stay outside."
Dani questioned him by raising her eyebrow, as she took the mail from his hands. "Why did you make him stay outside?"
Ashley and Matt both shot a look at her. "Bad luck?"
Dani rolled her eyes. "You guys don't actually believe that do you?"
They both nodded, as Dani rolled her eyes again. "Whatever." She said, as she started going through her mail. She rose an eyebrow when she came across something from a courthouse in New York. "What the hell?"
"What is it?" Ashley questioned. Dani ignored her, and ripped it open. After a few seconds of reading, she gasped. "What!?" Ashley asked even louder, then grabbing the letter from Dani and reading it.
"What is it Dani?" Matt questioned, as Ashley's jaw dropped as she read it.
"I... Get... I... Wow." She started.
"Oh my god! Dani! This is awesome!" Ashley yelped.
"Would someone please tell me what's going on here?" Matt asked in an annoyed tone.
Dani stood there in shock. "Matt, I'll tell you later. We need to tell Jeff!" Ashley said.
"I'll tell Jeff! If someone would please tell me whats happening!?" Matt asked rather loudly.
"No. This is something that Dani needs to tell him herself." Ashley replied.
"Well, then it's going to have to wait until after the wedding. Because she's not seeing him before. It's bad luck, and Dani doesn't need anymore of that."
"That is true. Dan, can it wait until after the wedding?" She turned to ask Danielle, but she was still staring outside in shock. She slowly nodded her head. "Are you okay sweetie?" Ashley asked, putting a hand on her friends shoulder.
"Yeah. I just... can't believe this." She shyly smiled, as she looked out the window and saw Jeff and Brian talking, and lifting a few tables together.
"Well believe it, Chicky. It's happening."
"What's happening!?" Matt asked one more time, as Ashley nudged him off. Dani let out a happy sigh, as she and Ashley walked back upstairs to finish doing Dani's hair. Matt followed behind, before Ashley turned and glared.
"Matt, go back outside. The pastor should be here any minute; and when Mickie, Maria, Kelly, and Michelle get here, tell them to come up here. Just make sure no guys come up. The only one allowed is Brian." She said quickly, before quickly kissing him, then ran up the stairs.
Matt groaned, then turned back to walk outside and help finish setting up.
About an hour later, everyone had arrived. It was all close friends, and close family members. They didn't want the wedding to be too fancy; so they had a few tables set up with food and drinks on them, and some medal chairs for everyone to sit on. That was pretty much it though. It didn't matter to Jeff and Danielle how nice everything looked, or how many people where there. It was about them two, no one else.
Dani looked one more time in the mirror. "Ugh, I'm so fat." She wined, as she turned to the side.
"You're not fat Dani! You're pregnant." Mickie informed her.
She sighed as she continued to look over herself. She was wearing a white, summer maternity dress, and white flats. Along with a diamond heart necklace Jeff had bought her for her eighteenth birthday. Her hair was down, in soft curls. With a small poof at the top, behind her bangs. She had her eyes smoked out, and wore a nude lip gloss.
"Beautiful." Maria smiled as she stood behind her.
"Really? You think so?" Dani questioned.
"Really! You look amazing girl!"
Dani smiled, then turned and walked towards the window. She saw everyone start to sit down in their chairs. She knew that it was almost time. "Okay Dan, we are going to head outside. See you in a few, Mrs. Hardy." Ashley chuckled. Dani blushed.
"Well, enjoy being Miss. Ayden while you still can." Michelle added. "You only have about fifteen minutes left." She chuckled.
"Thanks guys. Thank you all for being here, it means a lot to me." Danielle said, starting to tear up.
"Oh gosh, Danielle Gene Ayden! Don't you dare start crying! You're going to start us all up." Ashley said walking over to her best friend and gave her a hug. Dani let a tear slip down her cheek, as they all walked up and shared a group hug.
"I love you guys." She said, with a croak in her voice.
"We love you too." Maria said. Once they all pulled out of the group hug, they all had a few tears running down their faces. "Except when you make us cry when we just finished our damn makeup!" Everyone laughed as they wiped the tears out from her eyes.
"See you out there Dan." Mickie said, as they all started walking out the door. Ashley walked back over and gave her one more hug.
"Everything will be fine, sweetie. This is the start to you're new life. Just think of whats ahead! In a little more than one month, you're going to be a Mommy!" She smiled, as she started tearing up again. "And, Jeff is going to be with you until the end. He is the Father of that baby inside of you, you know." She smiled.
Dani let a few more tears out, before Ashley hugged her one more time, and turned to walk out of the door.
Dani took a deep breath, then walked towards the mirror. She took a tissue, and wiped a few stray tears away, as well as the mascara that was beginning to run.
"Are you ready, baby girl?" A male voice asked behind her. She quickly turned around to see Brian standing there. She smiled, and nodded. "Hey, don't worry about paying you're Dad back." He suddenly said.
She raised an eyebrow at him. "You're Mom and I took care of it." He smiled at her.
"You did?"
"Yep."
"Thanks Daddy." She said as she hugged him. "But I need to tell you something – And I haven't told Jeff yet, so don't say anything..."
"Okay. What is it?" He questioned.
She took in a deep breath and smiled. "I got a letter from New York Courts today." She started. "Since Ben got arrested before out divorce was finale, I get the deed to his house. Plus – I get four-thousand dollars a month in alimony for the next five years." His eyes grew, as did his smile. He brought her in for a hug.
"That's great baby girl!"
"Yeah. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with the house though. All those memories? I don't want to be in that house ever again." She sighed.
"Then sell it."
"Sell it?"
"Yeah. How much do you think it's worth?"
"A lot." She smiled. "It's two stories, and has five bedrooms. Plus a really nice kitchen, and a den, IN New York City."
"Damn. Well you're going to be rich, huh?"
She laughed, as they linked arms, and walked down the stairs.
Once to the bottom, they were stopped by Jo running towards them. "Wait, wait! I found my camera!" She smiled, trying to catch her breath.
Dani rolled her eyes and smiled. "Mom..." She wined.
"What? You don't want pictures of one of the most important days of you're life? You'll only get married once you know." She said, smartly.
"Then why is this my second wedding." She mumbled under her breath. But Brian heard her.
"Don't think about that today, baby. Today is you're day. Yours and Jeff's. You don't need to be thinking about that bastard." He said as he hugged her. She gently nodded, then sighed.
They stood against the wall, as Jo took a few pictures. Brian then stepped away, and let her have a few single shots. Once done, Jo headed outside.
Ashley then ran inside, then frantically set everyone up. She was the made of honor, you know. She pushed Kayla and her boyfriend, Ryan into the front. Then after they headed out, it was herself, and Matt. Then finally, Brian and Dani.
The music started playing, and everyone started walking. Once Ashley turned out the door, and Dani saw her walk all the way down the isle, her and Brian started walking.
Once outside, they walked all the way through the backyard as they heard everyone gasp. She wasn't really dressed up, but she looked gorgeous nonetheless.
She looked over to Jeff as they walked, and he smiled. She could tell he was just as nervous as her. She nervously started shaking, with all eyes on her... she looked over to Ashley and Kayla who were standing at the opposite side as Jeff. She could tell Ashley was starting to cry, and Kayla had the biggest grin on her face. She looked back at Jeff. He was wearing light washed jeans, and a white button up shirt; with the first few buttons unbuttoned, and the cuffs rolled up almost to his elbows.
As she got closer, she saw Jeff shaking, just as badly as she was. Matt stood behind Jeff, and he had a big-ass grin on his face as well. Once to the front, Brian kissed Danielle on the head, then walked over and stood behind Matt, and Ryan.
She looked up and Jeff, and could feel herself tear up. Jeff reached out and grabbed her hand. When he did, all of her nerves seemed to float away. He smiled at her, as they turned to face the paster.
She took a deep breath. She knew this was it. This was the start of her new life. Her new life with Jeff. Her new life with her son. Her new life, that didn't involve Ben. Everything that she had ever wished for in her life, was about to come true. She shed a single tear, as the pastor started the ceremony.
The end.
