Riley Stood in the huge arched doorway of the church where he would be marrying Adele very soon. As he was the groom he wanted to be here first so that he could greet everyone and make sure that nothing went wrong. He knew that nothing would but he just wanted to make sure. Lowan was asleep in his little seat in the front row. He had put a spell on the set so that if Lowan woke up it would rock and fall off he bench. He didn't want to have a crying baby at his wedding much and Lowan was usually good at not crying.

Riley ran his hand trough his hair as he took a step outside in to the sun. He could feel the adrenaline pumping through his veins mixed in with excitement. He was also very nervous though. He was Riley Smith after all and now he was getting tied down to one girl. One girl that he loved and had had a child with. Shaking his head Riley reassured himself. He did love Adele with no end and he knew this was the best thing to do.

He couldn't help but feel a little sad when he remembered that Mark and Logan couldn't make it to the wedding as they were in school. Riley would just have to tell the brothers about it when he was back at the castle. Until then however Riley was going to enjoy himself and that started with greeting he guests s they arrived.
 
Allayah arrived at the chruch, with a slight smile on her face. She remembered when she first met Riley, and lets just say he wasnt the best at being just Adele's alone. She laughed softly to herself as she thought that now, he would have to, he was gettin tied down! With that thought she started to walk up to the chapal, and then she saw Riley, she came up to him and hugged him gently with a smile "Hehe getting tied down today. You nervous?" She asked softly. He may be an awesome person, a professor, and god knows what else what, but she knew that this would be alittle hard for him, but he knew he was making the right decision. Allayah promised herself before she arrived, that if he tried to run for it, she would tie him down to a chair, put him next to Adele at the alter, and make him do this. He would thank her later.
 
Cyndi stepped into the church and headed straight for her best friend. He was standing with Allayah, the girl she'd met not too long ago and he looked quite handsome. She couldn't believe that he and Adele had actually made it to their wedding day. Sure, they had a child together, but Cyndi knew that Riley was still one of the biggest flirts she knew and she didn't know Adele at all, but she had the feeling that she was pretty similar. Today, she was here to support both of them though. Things had once been difficult between her and Adele, but they had eased up as of late. They were in the middle of a truce, so they were being nice to each other. "Riley! You cleaned up nice" she smiled as she stepped over to him and Allayah. "Hey Allayah" she said nicely. She didn't know the woman very well but she was still friendly towards her.
 
Caysi apparated to the church that Riley was going to get married at. She had known Riley for quite some time and told him for sure that she would come to the wedding. Riley was still one of Caysi's good friends, he was there for her when she left Jason, he was very supportive towards her. Even though she wasn't with Jason she would always be friends with Riley. The blonde looked at her outfit, today it was a blue mood, she had found something that would actually make her feel good, since she was pregnant and all. Caysi walked into the church to find Riley and a few others. Caysi walked over to Riley, giving him a big bear hug, still not to tight. " Hey Riley, your going to do great today." She said smiling at him.
 
Riley couldn't help but grin as he watched people starting to arrive. By people he meant Allayah. She was the first person here. He didn't mind a all though, he had grown quite fond of her recently even though he had only recently met they seemed to have connected. He hugged her back tightly and spun her around and let her go. "Yeah yeah. I know." He said smugly but in a joking kind of way. "Yeah but time will tell. Im hoping Il do well" He said a little nervously as he scratched he back of his neck awkwardly. He really was hoping that the day went well.

Before he could think too much in to it however his next guest turned up. He looked to his front at his best friend and he couldn't help but stare. She looked beautiful. "Wow look at you. Pfft. You say i cleaned up." He said smiling as he took a step forward and gave her a hug. When he released her he took a deep breath. "Im glad you two are here." He said with a smile as he looked back to Allayah quickly.

When he turned back to Cyndi, a Caysi had appeared from no where. He was taken a back slightly but he soon got a grip again and hugged his third guest. "Caysi." He said releasing her from his grasp. He looked her up and down an chuckled slightly. "Well. Forge about being pretty in pink. Your beautiful in blue." He said grinning "And yeah i know lets hope so." He said biting his bottom lip.
 
Allayah smiled softly at his awkwardness, laughing gently. As the other two girls arrived she smiled at both of them. She had allready met Cyndi, and Allayah gave her a hug hello smiling. As she stepped back she smiled to the two girls "Heya! Who knew he could clean up. Im alittle amazed actually" She laughed softly as she elbowed Riley gently in the ribs, not hurting him too much. She looked around the chaple, thinking it was a really beautiful place. Allayah had never met Adele, but she knew that Riley and his bride would look perfect here. She really hoped today went well for him. As she looked around at everyone, she thought that they all cleaned up pretty well, herself included.
 
Cyndi blushed slightly. "I try, I try" she said with a smile as she gave her roomie a hug and then hugged Allayah. "You're not the only one" she kidded with the girl. There seemed to be hugs going all around, but that made sense. It was a happy occasion after all. She looked around at the people who were surrounding Riley and nearly laughed to herself. They were all girls. She wondered if he even had any male friends to invite to the service. "I wouldn't miss this for the world, Ril" she said honestly.
 
Riley sighed and hook his head. "When are the guys going to get here? I dont like being picked on by al the girls." He said in pouty kind of way. He crossed his arms loosely across his chest. "Well I have to look good for the Mrs." He said with a wink. Riley looked to Caysi and smiled warmly at her. "So how re you and your new husband doing Mrs Porter." He said with a chuckle. He couldn't actually believe that Ryan had actually settled down with someone now. He had been with so many girls through their school years. Not as many a Riley obviously but he had had a few that was for sure
 
A wedding, of all functions, was not exactly something that Izaak Finch was in the mood for attending. It was probably not the safest of choices to attend it either, to see the ecstatic bride and groom would only chance another opportunity for his depression to sink a little deeper, to slice its way a little further into his heart. Because, you see, in the moments before his lover's death this was the turning point in their lives they had been fantasising over. The night had been a blur for Izaak, like a terrifying nightmare you'd wake up from, the order of events lost on you but the feelings still choking you even after you had peeled your eyes open. Yet those fatal words that had run them straight into that tree, "I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you", were something that had stuck with him in all their tragic irony.

Tugging anxiously at the cuffs of his button-up shirt, Izaak slipped into the crowd gathering outside the church and wished that he had stayed at home like Melodie and Leah and Aly had all begged him to. Screw this man-of-my-word business. If he couldn't keep his promise to Alexis, then what else would stand a f*cking chance? Huffing a sigh and rubbing his eyes roughly with the palms of his hands, the broken young man took a ginger step into the church and realised that Riley was standing right there, smiling with all that Izaak would never have with his Alexis. Still, he masked himself with the brave face he had been practising and croaked a hoarse, "Hey man." It was most likely that Riley or Adele knew of the accident, it had been and still was branded across the Prophets headlines. Words, some truthful and others hurtfully not, about Alexis, her father as the former President of Magic and about Izaak and how car crash, simple and common, had killed a once upon a time America sweetheart. He hoped they knew; he didn't particularly feel like explaining his red raw eyes, or his sore and tired voice, or where the enthusiasm that was just so him had gone. It would only make him upset when he was trying his utmost hardest to be happy for the pair of them. "How're you feeling?"
 
Jason quickly apperated from his home to his best friends wedding. He wasn't big on weddings for n obvious wedding but he would show his support to Riley and Adele. They were great together and Adele was good for Riley, it was about time he got a girl that kept him on his toes.

When his feet landed on the ground again Jason walked towards the huge church where everyone else was gathering. He wasn't big on crowds, he liked people just not crowds of them. As Jason got to the group he could see Riley already. He looked smart, for once. H|e made him way to him, weaving in and out of peoples way. He held his hand out for Riley and gave him a man hug. "All right mate. Big day today huh. You nervous?" He asked with a big grin on his face.
 
Riley looked around to his side when he heard someone who was not as familiar to him as the rest of his guest's He knew who it was though. "Alright Izaak. Im gad you made it, Adele will be pleased to see you here too." The teenager said with a smile. HE knew that Adele liked this guy a lot more than he did but he didn't dislike him either, Riley just wasn't sure that was all. His net question made him bit his bottom lip. He guessed that that question was going to be asked lot today. He also wondered how much his answer would change each time he was asked. "Im good thanks. Happy in the knowledge that i will be marrying the right girl." He said inhaling deeply and sighing happily.

The next person he saw in front of him made Riley's smile increase more. His best friend. He returned the hug and laughed at his comment. "Pfft is it I hardly even notice." He said slapping his shoulder. "You know me better than that Jay, I never get nervous. Im one lean mean.....Something machine." He said shaking his head slightly. "Yeah what ever." Riley muttered as he thought about hat he had must said and how it sounded.
 
Adele stood in one of the small rooms at the back of the church. She was all ready now. Ready to marry the love of her life...Riley. Adele had chosen to keep her hair down, she had never felt comfortable with it up, infact, as much as she loved being girly, she was actually a bit of a tomboy deep down inside. Adele looked in the mirror and smiled as she gripped onto her small framed photo of Riley that she had kept secret until now. "Come On Adele, lets do this." She muttered to herself as she headed towards the door.

Adele thought about everyone she knew was in there, Izaak, Cyndi, her friends, Riley's friends...but most importantly, Riley. Adele approached the door which led to the main Church Hall. With a gentle turn of the door knob, the door creaked open, and the quiet music began. Adele smiled as she saw Riley stood at the front ready and waiting. She slowly walked down the isle, watching her dress whilst also smiling at some of her friends. As she finally reached Riley, a wide grin spread across Adele's face. The young girl that Adele had been for all these years was finally there, she was finally becoming a woman. "Hey You." She whispered as she took her place next to Riley.
 
Today was the day, it seemed. Riley Smith had finally decided to get married. It was a surprise to Leah for she was not even aware that he had been attached, although it did not matter much to her whether he was or not. He had probably been with Adele the last time they had allowed their self control to spin out of control and make fierce love making, because it had not been that long ago. Regardless, she had received her invitation and felt happy that Riley had found someone. She would not be the one to tell Adele about his many lovers.

Leah apparated in front of the church dressed in her new dress. It had been an impulse buy, to say the least, but she could afford it because of her position at The Silver Snake. Many people had already arrived, almost all of them were ones she did not recognize at all. She suddenly felt very out of place. I should go. They all seemed so cheerful, and happy, something that made her very uncomfortable. Leah met Riley's eyes, however, and saw that it was too late to apparate away. He had seen her, and she did not wish to be rude.

Leah smiled at him, and stepped over to her former two night stand. "What a shock it was to see that you were getting married." Her voice coveyed all the friendliness and teasing that she could muster. "Congratulations, Riley. I hope you find true happiness."
 
Riley, still grinning as he spoke with the other people that had joined him. There was still a few people missing. He wasn't sure if Caysi had given Ryan his invite or not but he was that would turn up. As much as Ryan made Riley uncomfortable, they had been friends for a long time and it was only polite to invite him.

Riley felt his heart skip a beat as he heard the familiar voice of his very very soon to be wife close to him. He turned around and gave her a hug. You look beautiful, as ever." He aid pulling away and looking at her. "I thought you would come out to walk down the isle." He said jokingly. He wouldn't kiss her yet as he would save that for their marrying kiss.

His attention turned to someone else briefly when he heard someone else talk to him. This girl was familiar, he knew her as one of the girls he had slept with. Of course he had not told Adele about her, he thought it best that he didn't tell her of all the girls he had bedded. That would just be pushing his luck with her. "Leah hey. Nice to see you showed up. Its been a while eh" He said giving her a quick hug. "You look good" Riley commented with a smile.
 
Cyndi took her seat in the front just as she saw the knob turn and the door open. Adele was revealed standing there and a soft smile crossed her face. The younger woman looked gorgeous. It wasn't the type of dress that Cyndi would wear to her own wedding whenever that happened, but on Adele it looked perfect. The two women had been through a lot in a very short amount of time, and Cyndi was glad that the truce they had made seemed to be sticking. Things between them were still slightly awkward but they were definitely much better than they had been in the past. Adele trusted her with her and Riley's son and for that Cyndi would always be grateful. Lowan was so adorable and happy all the time, and Cyndi was glad he would grow up thinking of her as his aunty.

As they stood in front of each other, Cyndi looked at her roommate and his soon-to-be wife and her eyes glistened. She didn't cry very often, but weddings were always a way to bring out the waterworks. She pulled a tissue out of her bag and dabbed at her eyes, trying not to smear her makeup as she glanced at Lowan to see how he was doing. The little boy was in a tux and looked adorable.
 
Adele hugged Riley back, taking a quick glance at the rest of the church as she did so. She couldn't believe that all of her and Riley's friends would get to see the best moment of Adele's life. She smiled at Riley's compliment, then decided to return it. "And you look gorgeous...as ever." Adele said, placing her hands on Riley's cheeks, then placing her head against his. But she thought the same as Riley, they shouldn't kiss until the kiss married the two of them.

Adele was a little jealous when another girl, apparently called Leah, came to talk to Riley. She decided not to saying anything, but she assumed that the girl was one of Riley's previous one nighters. It shocked Adele a little bit, not the fact that she was at the Wedding, that was Riley's own personal choice, but the bride was in place, why would she make a thing of talking to Riley right in Adele's face. But Adele brushed it off, nothing was going to spoil her big day. She turned to Riley, excited about the great day that she had ahead. "So when's this thing starting? I wanna marry you!!!" She asked, poking Riley in the stomach once, and giggling a little.
 
Leah hugged Riley back and smiled at him and his bride one last time before heading back to her seat.She had wanted to congratulate the couple before the ceremony started, and now she had accomplished it.

They were both very eager to get married, and Leah wondered if Riley would begin to stay true to Adele. It was their business, however. Not hers.
 
Putting his arm around Adele. He really did think that she looked beautiful in her wedding dress. He almost felt undeserving now but he knew that she loved him and he loved her, that was more than enough for him.

He looked at Cyndi and smiled slightly as he saw he beginning to cry. He took his arm from around Adele and gave Cyndi a comforting hug. "You know this is the first time I have seen you cry in the two years iv known you." He said quietly in her ear so tat only she cold hear him. Riley released her from his grasp and placed his thumb at the bottom of her chin. "I always thought it was he bride and groom that was meant to cry, sometimes the mum but yeah" He said with a gin as he tried to cheer her up, only to be interrupted by his love.

Turning his attention back to Adele he laughed and rolled his eyes playfully. "Fine fine. Go back into your room and wait for a second while everyone gets into place ok." He said turning er around and placing his hands flat on her back as he walked to her room, pushing he softly as he went.
 
"Whatever" she mumbled, embarassed that Riley had noticed she was crying and was now hugging her. "I dunno, I always cry at weddings" she shrugged as she sniffed and then stuffed her tissue back into her bag. It probably wouldn't be in there for long because as soon as she heard them exchange their wedding vows, Cyndi would likely start up again. Weddings were always so happy and full of love that they made her cry. It was like watching one of those muggle movies where people got to live a Happily Ever After.

Adele obviously was not all about tradition because she was already out in front of everyone and Riley had now seen her dress. As he pushed her back towards the door she had come through so she could really make her entrance, Cyndi chuckled. She was already in her seat and she had the feeling that more people would begin to find their seats as well. It was obvious that the bride was growing impatient to get everything started.
 
Adele laughed. "No no it's fine, they've all seen me come in now, the big surprise is over." She said, taking Riley's hand from her back, and holding it gently with her own. She smiled as she watched Riley comforting Cyndi. She was happy that she had sorted everything out with Cyndi, it gave her and Riley a baby-sitter, and it saved any awkwardness for Riley.

Adele gave Riley a soft tug towards her, trying to get his attention. Adele liked Cyndi now and all. But for Adele this was her day, all attention needed to be focussed on herself and Riley. "So is the Vicar thingy person even here yet?" She asked with a widening smile. Adele was beginning to feel a little nervous, but she knew that once she had married Riley all the nerves would be worthwhile. She couldn't wait to marry him, he had changed her life for the best, and Adele simply just couldn't imagine life without him.
 
Cameron Kingsley apparated to the church where Cyndi was attending a wedding for her roommate. Apparently the bride was a friend of Kiera's or something, he wasn't exactly sure. He was supposed to be there earlier with her but work had called him in this morning in a panic. When Cam had finally managed to get away, he had realized he was running late. He sprinted forward, through the church doors, his blue eyes scanning the room for his lovely girlfriend.

Not soon enough, Cameron spotted her talking to the bride and groom. Wasn't the bride supposed to stay out of sight until the wedding begun? Or had Cam missed the whole wedding? He also noticed Caysi sitting on a row as he passed her to get to Cyndi. He gave her a crooked smile and a nod. "Cays." he acknowledged her before moving on. He wrapped his arms firmly around Cyndi's waist, snagging her. He squeezed her gently as he leaned down and kissed her on the cheek. "Sorry, I know I'm late." he apologized in his thick southern accent. "I'm Cameron Kingsley." he said holding his hand out to Riley and Adele. "Thank you for allowing me to accompany Cyndi on your special day." he said very politely.
