"Oh my god, Ash you found yourself such a pretty girl," My aunt who came from Kanto stated as she gave me a huge hug, and pinched Serena cheek. We currently were at a different restaurant that we reserved for our rehearsal.

My mom was seated with Gary and Professor Oak. She was currently chatting with them about her happiness of her getting a daughter. "Its been awhile Ash, wheres Serena?" I heard a familiar voice as I turned around and spotted Grace. She has aged a bit, but her huge smile gave her such a youthful vibe. I wrapped my arms around her while she hugged me back.

"It sure has mom," I responded as she pulled away. Behind her was Serena's father. He gave me a pat on the back.

"Ash how you been?" He asked.

"I'm doing good. Busy with engineering sir," I shrugged as he nodded.

"If you can call my lovely Grace 'mom'  don't be bothered to call me dad," He stated as I do remember the last time he reassured me it was okay. I tried to remember that, but I usually end up forgetting. He sometimes is scary if I had to admit.

"Ash!" I heard a girl exclaimed as she ran to hug me. It was Esmée, and she was now older. She was now four years old, and able to walk on her own.

I was surprised that she even knew me since last time I saw her she wasn't even one. "Hey Esmée," I cooed as I had my hand on her hand.

"Where's my sister?" She asked while I kindly moved her away from me.

"I'll go get Serena," I stated excusing myself. I turned around and headed to where Serena was last seen. I had seen her talking to one of her relatives. I spotted her in her red dress sitting down as she spoke to her aunt and uncle.

I walked towards them and they noticed my presence, "Serena, your parents are here," I kindly told her as her eyes widen and her smile grew.

"Really where?" She asked and began to look around frankly. I pointed to the enterance in where her family was standing. She got up from her seat and told me to talk to her relatives while she went to see her parents.

I nodded and she quickly walked away. "Hi I'm Ash Ketchum," I introduced myself while the couple looked at me.

"They know who you are Ash," I heard a low voice and felt an arm around me. I turned my head over and saw Calem. "These are my parents," He introduced while I glanced back at the couple. They gave me a warm smile and I began to see the resemblance of Calem's facial features.

"We are surprised that you chose Calem as one of your groomsmen. He isn't really the type to be able to handle such things," His mother explained while I tried to refrain myself from laughing.

"Ma, I have a catering business for your information," He announced and stated proudly.

His father rolled his eyes, "Where's Shauna?" He questioned looking around for his daughter in law.

"Shes handling some bridesmaids stuff." He answered as he took his seat next to his parents. "Ash shouldn't you go back to your table. It seems like my uncle is going to say a few things,"

I looked over and saw Clemont and Miette setting up the mic as Serena walked with her dad to the mic. He soon gave her a kiss on the cheek, and grabbed the microphone.

I got up, and headed to my table where Serena was already sitting at. At that table, I was with my mom, and future mother-in-law.

"I want to thank everyone for coming to my daughter and future son's wedding. I recently had came back to France with my wife and younger daughter, and want to also thank the maid of honor, and the best man for setting this up. Now, for a few words that I have for the future couple," He stated now turning his full attention at us. Serena grabbed my hand catching me off guard, but I returned her a smile.

He continued his speech, and soon ended up handing the microphone to Clemont. The waiters began to serve us food as Clemont said his speech. I was surprised that he was doing well in speaking infront of people, but it definitely showed that he was practing. We clapped as we took a small break before Miette goes on.

She felt pressured to eat quickly, in which she did and then went to the stage.

An hour has past, Serena and I spent the hour talking to our relatives and friends. Serena grabbed my arm as she know thought that it was best to finish the dinner. I later on agreed since everybody had finish their food.

Serena took over the microphone, and began to thank everyone who came to the rehearsal. There were a few who didn't show up. Mostly from my side of the family since they were arriving in the morning or they wanted a break from the long air flight. She handed the microphone to me, and I basically repeated what Serena said but in different wordings.

We soon began to take off now that everyone has left and it was just Serena and I.

We currently were at the enterance of the hotel. We were going to be separated, and not allowed to be seen after the wedding. "Serena before you go," I stopped her as I placed my hands into my pocket searching for the necklace.

"What is it?" She asked while I was ready to panick. I couldn't feel the necklace in my pants pocket.

Fuck, I thought to myself, but noticed that Serena was waiting, "I just wanted to give you one last kiss since this is the last time you and me are boyfriend and girlfriend," I lied since I wasn't able to find the necklace. She nodded, and gave me a sweet long kiss on the lips.

"I will see you soon," She winked and gave me a hug before turning to the other side of the hotel. She was going to share her bed with Miette.

I hurriedly ran to Gary's hotel room where I would be sleeping for the night. I unlocked the door, and spotted Gary annoyed at my presence. "You lost the necklace didn't you,"

"Where's my bag?" I questioned while Gary stopped me.

"Go to sleep," He ordered and I quickly declined his order, "I'll find it," He stated reassuring me that I would have to get up early tomorrow.

I gave in as he pushed me into the other mattress that he asked for. "I get that it's your day and all, but I want the hotel bed," He explained while I rolled my eyes and laid on the mattress.

Tomorrow is the big day.

A/n

This is it! The wedding chapter is next. And, let me say that it is going to be a long chapter. I decided that it would be in third person. That way we can switch between Serena and Ash.

Can't wait for their wedding!
