Achelois stared at her beautiful white dress. She couldn't believe that this was happening today. She was officially getting married to the love of her life. She stared at herself in the mirror as Dahlia arranged her dress to look beautiful. The colors of the wedding were red and orange, so Dahlia was wearing a red dress with an orange band around the bodice. All of her bridesmaids had similar dresses, though Dahlia's was definitely the most extravagant of the six. Dahlia was the maid of honor, while Windblade, Strongarm, Arcee, June Darby, and Miko were her bridesmaids. The Autobots were in their holoforms, which Windblade and Strongarm were still getting used to.

"Humans are so weird", Strongarm muttered poking her arm. Achelois laughed, before straightening her hair and her veil for the umpteenth time. She was really nervous, but she was also excited. Raf was the ring bearer for the ceremony, and though he wasn't such a little kid anymore, it was something she had always wanted Raf to do, and Ratchet agreed wholeheartedly. Jetstorm and Slipstream had agreed to be the flower boys, which amused Drift greatly.

Ultra Magnus was the one officiating the wedding. He actually was not expecting that honor, so he had to research the role a bit. Achelois thought it was quite funny.

Ratchet's best man was Optimus, obviously, with Jack, Bulkhead, Smokescreen, Wheeljack, and Bumblebee as ushers. Jack was honestly surprised when Ratchet had asked him, but he was willing to do it. Wheeljack was surprised too, since he thought he "grated on the doc's nerves a bit too much". (As he put it.)

Dahlia finished up the last touches, and grinned. "There you go!" she exclaimed. Achelois looked at herself in the mirror and smiled. Her dress was somewhat simple. It wasn't a poofy skirt, and the sleeves were a half sleeve. The top of the dress was similar in style to the bridesmaids dresses. The skirt went down to her feet, and it was just absolutely gorgeous. Her hair was pinned up the best it was able, seeing as it was short, and covered with the veil. She pulled part of the veil down in front of her face, and looked at Dahlia, who smiled widely.

"Perfect!" she exclaimed. "I think they're about to start now too, so let's get to our places."

Achelois stayed near the back of the hallway where Drift's holoform was waiting for her. In the time she had gotten to know Drift, he had actually become a sort of father figure to her, and so he was very happy to walk her down the aisle.

The doors opened and the bridesmaids and ushers began to walk. Jack with Miko, Arcee with Wheeljack, Windblade with Bulkhead, Strongarm with Bumblebee, and June with Smokescreen. Ratchet was getting nervous himself, and it took Optimus gently placing a hand on his shoulder for to calm down.

Dahlia follows the bridesmaids and groomsmen by herself, and finds her place near the altar. Then the Raf goes through blushing slightly at the attention that was given to him. He took his place near Optimus and Ratchet.

Then the two flower boys went through, "gracefully" spreading flower petals over the aisle. And then the wedding anthem plays. Achelois took a deep breath, positioned herself on Drift's right arm, and continues they walk forward slowly. Each step was so nerve-wracking and she just wanted to run to Ratchet right then and there. But she calmed herself and looked for her soon to be husband. She found him right by the altar, watching her with amazed eyes. She smiled at him, and soon enough, she found herself beside him.

Before Drift could walk off to find his spot, Achelois kissed him on the cheek as thanks. He smiled at her, and then she turned to face the altar. Ultra Magnus began to read what he had to read. And then began the vows. Ratchet and Achelois turned to face each other and held hands.

"I, Ratchet, take you Achelois, to be my wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; until all are one", Ratchet murmurs, never taking his eyes away from Achelois'.

Achelois smiled happily. "I, Achelois, take you Ratchet, to be my husband, my partner in life and my one true love. I will cherish our union and love you more each day than I did the day before. I will trust you and respect you, laugh with you and cry with you, loving you faithfully through good times and bad, regardless of the obstacles we may face together. I give you my hand, my heart, and my love, from this day forward until all are one."

And then together, they said "I love that you are my person and I am yours, that whatever door we come to, we will open it together."

Ultra Magnus spoke next. "I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride."

Ratchet didn't hesitate to lean forward and place a gentle kiss on Achelois' lips. They smiled into the kiss as everyone cheered. Ratchet offered her his arm, and she didn't hesitate to take it. She gazed into his eyes as he gazed into hers, and it was then that they knew...

They will be truly inseperable.

The End
