To Be Wed
Hello, and welcome back to the oneshots. I hope ye enjoy.
Edit here: My friend Jeleego on here decided to do their own twist on this as well, but its from Nya's POV (I say twist I got the idea from one of the prompts she found.) But I suggest you check it out! (She is way way way better at it than me. [Can't Say anything now Jed it's in black and white])

It was the time that Jay had been waiting for. The time of his life.
The one time that mattered most to him.
A few months ago, he had taken Nya on a date out to eat, then watch the stars in a nearby park. He made it sound casual to her, but he used it as his cover up to prepare his proposal to Nya.
Sure he made sure to ask her parents, as well as brother, Kai, for their permission, and even though Kai basically made him promise him again that he wouldn't break Nya's heart, Kai was pretty easy on him. He didn't know why however.
The face Nya had on her when she said yes to him, the absolute tears of Joy exploded with a combination of contentment from his part. He knew life would be better now that she was riding along.
And here they were.
Jay heard the organ start playing the traditional "Here comes the bride," tune, and he looked down the aisle to see Nya walking down.
And she was so beautiful I thought I was in a dream.
When Nya finally reached the altar, Master Wu decided to start speaking. We had both decided that he should be the one to officiate the ceremony, and we wouldn't have it any other way
"Dear friends and family," Wu started.
"We are gathered here today in the presence of these witnesses, to join Jay Walker, and Nya Smith in matrimony, which is commended to be honourable among all men; and therefore is not by any to be entered into unadvisedly or lightly, but reverently, discreetly, advisedly and solemnly. Into this holy estate these two persons present now come to be joined. If any person can show just cause why they may not be joined together, let them speak now or forever hold their peace."
Wu held for a few seconds, however nobody stood up. Seeing no objections, he carried on.
"Now, being their sensei, and then master for the last eight years, I have come to know my students as being the best as they could be, and even though they have had their ups and downs, they have came together to celebrate their togetherness, and have worked together through thick and thin and came out on top. I honestly believe that they have deserved this, and this is for many happy years." The audience clapped at that, while the both of us smiled.
I knew what time it was for, and started speaking out my rehearsals of my vows.
"Nya, I know that over the last years, we have not always seen eye to eye. But the moment I saw you, I knew that you were special. I couldn't even speak! Zane had to translate what I said, which was 'Do you like blue?' When you said that it was your favourite colour, I knew that we were meant to be. When you helped me overcome my fears of having to impress you, and you told me to be myself, I knew that you were the one for me. The only one for me.
Then... that thing happened, and we got separated. I won't lie, I wanted to stay with you throughout everything, and you leaving broke my heart, but I eventually understood that the way it was, it was set up to fail. But since Nadakan, we reconciled, and to this day, I'm happy we did, cause I would've never been here with you.
But from the bottom of my heart, I love you, and am looking forward to spending the rest of my life with you. I love you."
The crowd awww'd at that, and I saw Nya let out a big smile. She then started vocalising her own speech she prepared.
"Jay, when I first met you, I knew that I would end up with you, but I couldn't say that, not then, or it would have been weird, right? Anyway, from the start; your auburn hair, which back then I never knew that you dyed it, your sense of humour, I couldn't resist. When we went on our first date, I knew that you were the one. And yet I still doubted myself.
When Cole came along, I knew what not to think. Why did that machine show me that I didn't know. But part of me was glad since the relationship was going sour at that point. But I still couldn't get my mind off the issue, even after you all left. From then, our friendship at that point was stale, with us not talking much, but when Nadakan came along, we didn't have a choice.
Even if everyone else cannot remember it, I remember, I remember it all. I regret then saying that we were only ever going to be friends. I knew we weren't, but some part of me wanted to stay by myself, stay looking after myself. However I am glad that I did express my true feelings, cause look where we are now.
Losing you when you went to the first realm destroyed me. I had no idea how I was going to live without you. But when we found out you were all alive. I cried tears of happiness, and I knew that you were going to come back to us. And sure enough, you did. When you asked me to be your Yang, I knew that this day would come, and now, it has. I love you with all my heart Jay."
The tears from the crowd had increased, with Nya noticing Kai cry first, and then she turned her gaze to me, while I felt tears run down my own face, and noted she was doing the same.
Wu cleared his throat, then continued.
"And now, Jay, do you take Nya to be your wife, to promise to love, honor, cherish, and protect him/her, forsaking all others, and holding only unto him/her forevermore?
I looked at her, and gave her the best smile I could.
"I do."
And Nya, do you take Jay to be your husband, to promise to love, honor, cherish, and protect him/her, forsaking all others, and holding only unto him/her forevermore?
I looked on in anticipation at her, only to see her smile increase as well.
"I do."
The ring bearer came along with the rings, and Jay and Nya took them, and held them out in their hands. Wu continued.
Nya and Jay will now exchange rings as a symbol of love and commitment to each other. Rings are a precious metal; they are also made precious by you wearing them. Your wedding rings are special; they enhance who you are. They mark the beginning of your long journey together. Your wedding ring is a circle—a symbol of love never ending. It is the seal of the vows you have just taken to love each other without end.
I held out my hand to her, in which she slipped a ring onto my finger.
"Take this ring as my commitment and love for you."
She then placed her hand out, and I slipped the ring on her finger.
"Take this ring as my commitment and love for you."
"And now by the power vested in me by Ninjago, it is my honor and delight to declare you man, and wife. Go forth and live each day to the fullest. You may seal this declaration with a kiss.
Nya and Jay looked at each other, came together, and kissed. The crowd went wild.
Kiss....
Kiss.........
"You may seal this declaration with a kiss................................."

Jay woke abruptly, pulling himself up to a sitting position. He looked around his room, before he started crying. Crying his heart out.
That nightmare again
That same nightmare.
He pulled his legs into himself, weeping hard. Trying to forget that same situation
Yes, he would have loved to marry Nya, to be there for her on the day, and for the days after for however long in the that they would have, maybe even had children along the line, but the truth was..
She was dead.
She has been dead for years, killed in a fight, and Jay was unable to do much to stop the bleeding before she passed away in his arms, like all those years ago.
However, there was not a wish he could do which could bring her back.
And off all the regrets Jay had, the biggest one was not being able to marry her before her time had come, showing her how much he truly loved and cared for her. And now,
The nightmares haunt him.
