Chapter 22: The Wedding
Jamie woke up, smiling like an idiot. Today was the day she was getting married to her zing, the famous Count Dracula. Once she got up, there was a knock on the door. She went up to it and opened it to see Mavis, Wanda, Winnie, Eunice, and Crystal with huge smiles on their faces.
"You ready to marry my dad?" Mavis asked.
"I am," Jamie nodded.
She then started getting ready as did the others.
(A/N Bridesmaids' and flower girl's dresses.)
(A/N Bride's dress, hair, and makeup.)
Once done, Jamie faced the wall, twiddling with her thumbs being a nervous wreck and yet she was happy. She took a deep breath.
"Don't worry. Dad is gonna love it," Mavis promised, making Jamie turn around, then Mavis added, "He already loves you."
Jamie smiled and said as she hugged her, "Thanks, Mavis. I can't thank you enough for everything."
"You're welcome," Mavis responded.
They parted then they all went downstairs to the main lobby. They lined up outside the ballroom, waiting for their cues. The bridesmaids went with their groomsmen (their husband/boyfriend), Mavis and Johnny being the maid of honor and best man. As Winnie spread the dead rose petals out and Dennis walked beside with the rings, Vlad went up to Jamie.
(A/N Ring Bearer.)
(A/N Groomsmen.)
"You ready to officially become a Dracula?" he smirked.
"I am. And thanks for doing this. You've definitely been like a father to me, so I can't imagine anyone else escorting me down the aisle and marrying me to my zing," she said.
His smirk was turned into a genuine smile. They hugged then heard "Hear Comes the Bride". They parted then he held out his arm.
"Let's do this," he said.
She accepted it with a smile and the doors opened to reveal everyone standing for her. When Jamie locked eyes with Drac, she felt time stop for a moment.
(A/N Dracula's tuxedo.)
They smiled at each other as Vlad and she kept going. Once there, Vlad handed Jamie to Drac and Drac gently rubbed his thumb over the back of her hand. He took her up the stairs and Vlad got ready to marry them.
"Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to marry my son, Dracula, to his zing, Jamie," Vlad announced then joked, "It's about time."
Everyone chuckled at that.
"Now these two have written their vows about each other. So let's let my daughter-in-law go first," Vlad said.
Jamie smiled and gently took both of Drac's hands. She took a deep breath and began her vows.
"Drac, since the day I met you, I knew that you were amazing. We knew more about each other than we thought. I love seeing you at your best and I will be there for you at your worst. I'm glad that Martha and Ericka were a part of your life and I'm glad to do the same. You are my best friend, my love, my zing, my favorite person, and so much more. We had some rough patches, but because they all led up to this point, it made it worthwhile. I love you and only you," Jamie said.
"Now my son will say his vows," Vlad said.
Drac sighed happily and replied, "Jamie, you were the first person who zinged with me. Since you told me I was the one you zinged with, I was so confused why you kept it from me for so long. Now I know and understand. Everything that happened led up to this point and I'm grateful to Martha, Ericka, and definitely you for teaching me what love is. You are my best friend, my zing, my love, and the one I want to be with the rest of my life. And I love you and only you too."
"Now the rings," Vlad said.
Dennis then came up and held the red pillow up to the couple. They took each other's rings and put them on their ring fingers. Then it was time for the "I do's".
"Do you, Jamie, take Dracula to be your lawfully wedded husband, in sickness and in health, for richer or for poorer, for better or for worse, to have and to hold, for as long as you both shall live...again?" Vlad asked.
"I do," Jamie smiled.
"Do you, Dracula, take Jamie to be your lawfully wedded wife, in sickness and in health, for richer or for poorer, for better or for worse, to have and to hold, for as long as you both shall live...again?" Vlad repeated.
"I do," Drac smiled.
"I now pronounce you count and countess. You may kiss the bride," Vlad said.
Drac then dipped Jamie, making them laugh, then they kissed, making everyone cheer.
"Ladies and gentlemen, may I introduce you to Count Dracula and Countess Jamie," Vlad announced.
The audience cheered more as the couple walked out hand in hand, ready for the reception.
