"-Are you ready sweetie?
-Oh Laura, you scared me. I tried all dday to prevent Lucky from seeing me, he
just won't quit! Elizabeth said with a laugh
-It's just me. You look beautiful"
Elizabeth smiled at her soon-to-be mother in law. It was true, she was beautiful in her long, white wedding dress. She had high heels on, and her hair was up. A knock on the door interrupted the two women.
"-Elizabeth, they are ready when you are. Stefan said
-I'm ready."
Laura got out and ran in the front of the church. She wanted to see Elizabeth when she would walk in. Lesley Lu was ready, arranging her dress, and Michael was dancing on his feet. Elizabeth heard the organ play inside, and Stefan gave her his arm. The church doors open and she looked up. Lucky was at the altar, and looked really nervous. She saw him say something to Nikolas, before his brother shoved him. Elizabeth slowly walked behind Michael and Lesley Lu, to meet the love of her life.
"-Who gives this woman? Asked the priest
-I do, answered Stefan"
Lucky smiled at Elizabeth and they turned towards the priest. The man started his speech on the sanctity of Love and Marriage, but they didn't hear anything, lost in each other.
"-Lucky? Asked the priest
-Oh I'm sorry, what?
-You're ready for your vows?
-Oh yeah sure. Lucky turned to Elizabetth and took her hands. That's weird,
when I try to think about who I was before I knew you. It's like looking at an
old picture of someone I used to know, and old friend I lose touch with or a
relative I was never close to, but not the real flesh and blood me. Because I
can't even imagine who I used to be, without you, how I walked around in this
world, not knowing you were in it, waiting to love me. I never want that again.
I never wanna know another day that doesn't include you. I don't even know how
it happened. I couldn't tell ya, the exact day, or moment when I realized that
I love you, but when it did, it happened big. You've got my heart. That's a
permanent lock. Everything I am is in love with you. My soul, my mind, my
body, my spirit. That will never change. I pledge myself to you, Elizabeth,
today, forever.
-Elizabeth? You have your own vows too?? Asked the priest
-Thank you. This is so amazing. That yoou and I would be standing here, and
you'd be saying these things to me. I am so honored to be who you love. When
we first met, I knew right there I was in love with you. I knew there would
never be anyone else for me. I am so full inside, it hurts. You've got my
heart. That's a permanent lock. Everything I am is in love with you. My soul,
my mind, my body, my spirit. That'll never change. I pledge myself to you
Lucky, today, forever.
-Do you have the rings?
-I do! Said Michael, happy to have someething to do
-This ring is my promise, said Lucky, puutting it on Elizabeth's finger
-This ring is my promise. Elizabeth didd the same
-By the power invested in my, I know proonounce you husband and wife. Mr.
Spencer, you may kiss the bride."
Lucky took Elizabeth close to his heart and kissed her gently. They heard everyone clap their hands, and a few sniffles too.
"-May I be the first to present you Mr. and Mrs Lucky Spencer" The church bursted with applaud, and they ran outside laughing. Pictures were taking, smiles were given, handshakes were exchanged. The Port Charles hotel hosted the reception, and the whole town was invited. Elizabeth had even invited her sister and mother. Nikolas got up and looked at everyone, clanging on his flute to get the attention. Finally, the room was quiet.
"-As best man, I have to give the speech it seems. {Everybody laughed} Well, I have it all ready, but first I have to tell you why I shoved my brother in the church. When the door opened and he saw his bride-to-be, my brother looked at her and I could see him wanting to pick his jaw up off of the floor. Still looking at her, he then said "God damn Elizabeth, can you look more beautiful?" We were in a church and he was blaspheming! {Laughter filled the room, once again}. Ok, on to the real speech. If there is two people in life who had a chance to defy the odds, these people got married today. I mean, face it, everyone and everything were against them. My father, me, his father, need I say more? They fought each other, before joining forces to fight us. They won, and I couldn't be more pleased. Lucky, take good care of her. I know you love her and will honor her, today, forever. Elizabeth, beat the hell out of him if he doesn't. Cheers"
Time for the first song to be danced by the bride and the groom. Lucky took Elizabeth closed to his heart and put his cheek on hers.
"(When I first saw you, I saw love
And the first time you touched me, I felt love
And after all this time, you're still the one I love)
Looks like we made it
Look how far we've come my baby
We might have took the long way
We knew we'd get there someday
They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But look at us holding on
We're still together, still holding strong
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night
Ain't nothing better
We beat the odds together
I'm glad we didn't listen
Look at what we would be missing
They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But look at us holding on
We're still together, still holding strong
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night
Looks like we made it
Look how far we've come my baby"
The party went on in the night, catching Lucky and Elizabeth smiling and laughing. Liz couldn't be happier, this was really the best day of her life. She was surprised when she saw Lucky got up on the stage with the band. He gave sheets to the musician and took the microphone.
"-May I have your attention please. Thank you. I hope you are having fun! {everybody cheered} Good, cause my fun will come AFTER the party, Lucky said in a laugh. You know, two years ago I sang a song to someone who is really dear to me, and that I miss terribly, and I told myself I would never sing again. For anyone. But tonight, of all night, I decided to change my mind. Elizabeth honey, I know you always wanted me to sing for you, even though you never asked me. This is for you. From your favorite singer, the other song we couldn't decide as our first dance."
He gave the ok to the band, and the music started.
"From this moment, life as begun
From this moment, you are the one
Right beside you, is where I belong
From this moment on
From this moment I have been blessed
I live only for your happiness
And for your love, I'd give my last breath
From this moment on
I give my hand to you with all my heart
Can't wait to live my life with you
Can't wait to start
You are I will never be apart
My dreams came true because of you
From this moment, as long as I live
I will love you, I promise you this
There is nothing I wouldn't give
From this moment on
You're the reason I believe in love
And you're the answer to my prayers from up above
All we need is just the two of us
My dreams came true because of you
From this moment, as long as I live
I will love you, I promise you this
There is nothing I wouldn't give
From this moment on
I will love you as long as I live
From this moment on"
Elizabeth ran in Lucky's arms as soon as he got off the stage, holding him close. She knew how hard it must have been for him to realize her dream and sing for her, since the only one he would sing to was Nadia. And she was right, as she felt him wipe a tear from his cheek. She never loved him more than she did at that moment.
The night was almost over, when the DJ said they had a request from the bride. She took Lucky's hand and led him to the dance floor, taking him in her arms and placing his around her waist. The music began and they started dancing.
"Can this be true...
Tell me, can this be real...
How can I put into words what I feel?
My life was complete...
I thought I was whole...
Why do I feel like I'm losing control?
I never thought that love could feel like this...
Then you changed my world with just one kiss
How can it be
That right here with me
There's an angel
It's a miracle
Your love is like a river
Peaceful and deep
Your soul is like a secret that I never could keep
When I look into your eyes I know that it's true
God must have spent...
A little more time...
On you...
In all of creation, all things great and small
You are the one that surpasses them all
More precious than
Any diamond or pearl
They broke the mold when you came in this world
And I'm trying hard to figure out
Just how I ever did without
The warmth of your smile,
The heart of a child
That's deep inside
Leaves me purified...
Your love is like a river
Peaceful and deep
Your soul is like a secret that I never could keep
When I look into your eyes I know that it's true
God must have spent...
A little more time...
On you...
I never thought that love could feel like this...
Then you changed my world with just one kiss
How can it be
That right here with me
There's an angel
It's a miracle
Your love is like a river
Peaceful and deep
Your soul is like a secret that I never could keep
When I look into your eyes I know that it's true
God must have spent...
A little more time...
On you"
After the party, Elizabeth was ready to go home to her husband, and her newly adopted son. They were now officially a family. Jordan became a part of it in the morning, and Lucky was the last addition in the afternoon. But someone, somewhere lied. She was the one who was "Lucky". Not the other way around.
The end
