*Nikki*

"Everyone a round of applause for Mr. and Mrs. Sixx!!" Vince shouted out loud  as we made our way into the reception hall after a photoshoot by the gardens.

We laughed as Mal and I walked in, holding hands, and waving at everyone as we admired the reception hall.

We were then escorted to the newlyweds table, decorated with the cake and flowers.

I pulled the seat out for Mal, letting her sit down before I did as waiters and waitresses walked around taking orders for dinner.

Everyone was chatting and eating and having a goid time, a few people even dancing to the music that played.

I then hear the music go down and something clinking against glass before I then hear glass break and we turn to see Tommy standing up with a spoon in one hand and a broken glass of champagne in the other.

"Oops....." he said,a few guests laughing.

"Pffft!" I scoffed a laughed as Mal tried to hold back a laugh, shaking her head.

"Uhhh, anyway," he said , putting the broken glass and spoon down. "Considering I'm the Best Man, I'd like to make a toast."

I smiled as I wrapped an arm around Mal, who leaned against me, as Heather handed Tommy her glass of champagne.

"To Nikki and MJ," Tommy said, holding the glass up. "You two have been through a lot of shit, that's for sure, but in the end you two managed to make it through and are together. Despite all of that, I just can't picture you two apart. You two were meant for each other."

I smiled as Mal looked up at me, wrapping an arm around my waist.

"Now, to make sure MJ ain't the only one blushing, and to kinda get back at Nikki for when he was best man at my wedding, here's something I know from when he and MJ first met!" T-Bone said, an evil smirk on his face.

My eyes widen in horror. The son of a bitch wouldn't dare.....

"So, there was Nikki and I, we had also just met that same night, we sat in the booth, talking about making the band," Tommy said. "On and oooon and ooooon and oooon, he was talking about how cute a certain waitress was, was just stuck on staring at her, and I quote, 'gorgeous shiny brown eyes, her amazing lips and soft looking hair,' and even actually getting a little annoyed at how she was distracting him from planning the vision he had for the new band."

A few people laughed as I slowly sank into my seat, pulling my bangs over my eyes as I felt my face turn bright red. Mal was covering her mouth and giggling softly.

"I agree though, MJ is good looking, always has been, and at first I thought he was annoyed by me kind of popping up on him and twirling my drumsticks, but then I figured it out eventually," He said with a grin on his face. "And there were even times after we all started living together, before he and MJ started to officially date, and he always got pissy about MJ working at strip clubs, because he really just HATED the idea of other guys goggling eyes at her while she worked to help with our rent and stuff. He was soooooo jealous, let me tell you, and seeing someone like Nikki all jealous and stuff was actually pretty funny, since he got real moody whenever he was."

Everyone laughed, Mal laughing as well,  as I groaned and slammed my head down onto the table.

Tommy Lee, you are a dead man.

 "Baby, its okay," Mal giggled as she reached over and moved my hair from my face, and I looked at her nervously.

"Hahaha, good times," Tommy smiled. "But, all that just showed how much Nikki really did love MJ. Not having her at one point in his life, I saw what that did to him, it fucked him up.... MJ has always been a sort of lifeline to him.... Being apart wasn't good for either of them, and they were once too stubborn to admit it...."

Mal and I looked down embarrassingly with smiles, since Tommy wasn't wrong.

"Nikki.... You're my brother for life, dude, my Terror Twin," Tommy said. "Do not mess this up, because no way in hell are you ever going to find yourself a girl like MJ."

I nodded with a smile at him as he then turned to Mal.

"And MJ..... You have always been like a second sister to me," he said. "In other words, you know what Athena has gone through."

We all laughed as Athena raised her hand up in praise.

"I wish you both nothing but many, many years of happiness, because that's what you both deserve," Tommy said.

We smiled at his words, and watched as he held his glass up.

"To Nikki & Mallory Sixx," He announced with a smile.

"To Nikki and Mallory Sixx," Everyone smiled as they made the toast andTommy came up and we hugged him (I did punch his arm).

Soon we were back to enjoying our meals and talking, family and friends congratulating us.

We then went to take some pictures with everyone. There were pictures of us with the band, with our families, the ladies all together, us guys all together, and more.

Soon after, I saw as Sharise had gotten the mic from the stage and spoke into it.

"Everyone!" Sharise announced. "It is time for the couple to have their first dance together!" 

Mal and I looked at each other and smiled bashfully as we were cheered on to head to the dance floor.

*Mallory*

"And, as a gift to them, performing for their dance," Sharise said. "Give it up for Skid Row!!"

Everyone cheered and applauded as Nikki and I looked at each other in surprise and then watched as Sebastian, Rachel, Scotti, Dave and Rob climb up onto the stage, Sharise handing the mic to Sebastian before heading to her seat.

I smiled as Sebastian nodded at us with a smile, then spoke into the mic.

"This one's for our very good friends, Nikki & Mallory Sixx," he said.

I placed my hand over my heart, nodding at Sebastian as Nikki smiled and raised some devils horns to him.

He winked at us before motioning to Scotti, who started to play the guitar.

(Video: Skid Row "I Remember You")

Nikki then took my hand and lead me to the dance floor, as everyone watched us. Nikki placed his hand on my waist and held my other hand up while I hand my hand on his shoulder and we swayed to the music a bit as Sebastian started to sing.

Woke up to the sound of pouring rain

The wind would whisper
and I'd think of you
And all the tears you cried
– they called my name
And when you needed me I came through

Paint a picture of the days gone by

When love went blind and you would make me see
I'd stare a lifetime into your eyes
So that I knew that you were there for me
Time after time you
were there for me

I smiled as I looked up at Nikki, who leaned down and pressed his cheek against the top of my head, holding me closer as we kept swaying to the music.

Remember yesterday -
walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sands -
I remember you

And through the sleepless nights, through every endless day
I wanna hear you say,
"I remember you."

"To think at one point, we thought we'd never be here again...." I said quietly up to him. 

"Well, we're here, baby," he said. "We made it."

I smiled and nuzzled his cheek as we continued to dance.

We spent the summer with the top rolled down
Wished ever after would be like this
You said I love you babe, without a sound
I said I'd give my life for just one kiss
I'd live for your smile and die for your kiss

Remember yesterday - walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sands - I remember you
And through the sleepless nights, through every endless day
I wanna hear you say, "I remember you."

We've had our share of hard times
But that's the price we paid
And through it all we kept the promise that we made
I swear you'll never be lonely

"Nikki.... Is everything Tommy said true?" I whispered curiously as the guitar solo started.

He groaned embarrassingly, hiding behind his bangs again. "I'm gonna scalp Tommy," he mumbled, making me giggle.

"Don't," I said. "I think its really sweet knowing how you felt for me back then...."

"It makes me sound possessive as hell," he said.

I shrugged. "I don't think so.... You were protective, and I actually feel thankful for that. Nobody ever protected me like you ever did.... You always did....."

He smiled at me as he then spun me a little, making me giggle as he then bought me back against his body.

"I'm glad I have you to complete me," I said. He smiled and leaned down, kissing me as the song continued.

Woke up to the sound of pouring rain
Washed away a dream of you
But nothing else could ever take you away
'Cause you'll always be my dream come true
Oh my darling, I love you

Remember yesterday - walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sands - I remember you
Through the sleepless nights, through every endless day
I wanna hear you say, "I remember you."

Remember yesterday - walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sands - I remember you.
Through all the sleepless nights, through every endless day
I wanna hear you say, "I remember, I remember you!"

The song ends and Nikki and I held onto each other as we stopped, everyone cheering  and I bashfully pressed my forehead on his shoulder as he laughed and hugged me, kissing the top of my head.

"Round of applause for Nikki and Mallory," Sebastian said into the mic.

Everyone applauded as we took a bow and then headed back to enjoying the party.

We all danced, ate, and had a really good time, Sebastian performing a few more songs before Aerosmith got a turn at the stage. The sun was going down, but we were all having too much fun to care.

We played the garter game, which made me honestly now understand what Vince meant in that interview that one time not too long ago, because Nikki obviously has a hidden talent in dancing exotically..... Hehe......

We also had some more speeches and also had some cake, Nikki and I having a pretty crazy cake fight, (which I won, by the way, despite what Nikki tells himself).

Lucky for me, my wedding dress had a removable skirt, which made the dress into a cocktail dress that reached to my knees, the skirt a little bit poofy but not excessively, so it made moving around easier.

Right now everyone was dancing along to My Girl and it was definitely bringing a lot of energy, everyone's heels practically thrown across the room at this point.

(Video: Aerosmith "My Girl")

Nikki spun me around as I laughed and held me up, my legs wrapped around his waist as he bent me back and spun me around a lot, making me scream out in excitement.

He laughed as he pulled me up and soon the song ended, the band deciding to take five.

He let me down as I laughed and panted.

"Okay, I'm dizzy," I laughed, and we decided to rest up.

As we headed to our table, Mick then approached us.

"Hey," Mick smiled as he walked over to me and Nikki after dancing to Chameleon.

"Hey," I smiled. "Mick, are you having a good time?"

"You bet. I'm gonna be heading home, though, my back's starting to act up," he sighed.

"Shit," Nikki frowned.

"Do you want me to get someone to drive you?" I asked.

"Nah, Emi's driving, she's sober," he assured. "But, I didn't want to leave without giving you guys your wedding gift."

He then held up an envelope in his hands.

"Awww, Mick," I smiled as Nikki took the envelope and opened it.

"Plane tickets?" he said, then read it, his eyes widening. "Puerto Rico?!"

My eyes widen and I look at the tickets, and sure enough, they were tickets to San Juan for a whole week, and it takes off tonight a bit before midnight.

"The resort is amazing, you two will love it," Mick smiled. "Heather helped pick it out."

"Mick, my god, you shouldn't ha-"

"Uh-uh," he snapped, stopping me. "I don't wanna hear any shouldn't haves. I wanted to, you two deserve a good honeymoon, so after the bride here throws her bouquet, I want you both to get your asses on that plane and enjoy yourselves for the whole damn week. Tommy and Heather are gonna watch Jack for you two, Vince and Sharise took the liberty and got your bags and things packed and ready in the limo, passports included, and I already called the hospital and told them you'll be out for the week, we'll cover for Nikki on any interviews or rehearsals."

Nikki and I looked at each other surprised before I smiled at Mick and then walked over, hugging him.

"Thank you, Mick," I said, feeling as he hugged me back.

"Anytime," he said.

I smiled as we pulled back and I kissed his cheek, making him scoff bashfully as I laughed, Nikki patting his back carefully.

"Thanks, man," he smiled.

Mick smiled, patting back Nikki's shoulder. "Have a safe trip."

We smiled as we watching him motion to Emi as she walked over, waving at us as they both left.

We waved back as we watched them leave and then looked down at the tickets.

"San Juan.... Definitely something unique, huh?" I smiled.

"For sure," Nikki smiled. "Most newly weds go to Hawaii or the Bahamas or something, or Europe sometimes."

I shrugged. "Well, we aren't most newly weds," I pointed out.

"That's true," he chuckled, and pulled me into his arms, making me laugh as he then pulled me into his arms, spinning me around as we kissed before setting me down.

"Ugh, I'm actually getting all stuffy in this dress, I should go change," I said, shifting the dress a little bit.

"You got a change of clothes?" he asked.

"Yes, I actually do," I said, smirking. "And I think you might actually like this outfit."

His eyes widen, and then he leaned over. "Baby... As much as I wouldn't mind seeing you in lingere right about now, I think its better to save whaever little lacey number you got for San Juan, don't you think?"

I scoffed and playfully smacks my arm. "Not like that, you goof," I said, making me chuckle.. "Let's just say its a little old memory from the past you might like."

He furrowed my brows, not knowing what she meant.

Guess he'll have to wait and see this surprise soon.

*Nikki*

Once it was night everyone was tired and Mal and I decided to start heading to the airport.

She had run off a while ago with Sharise and Heather in tow to go change. Meanwhile, I confirmed with Vince that our stuff was packed for the trip, but we had time to stop by in case we needed anything else.

So far, everything was there, especially our clothes and passports, and we had time to stop by an ATM for some cash.

I also got changed in a leather jacket, black jeans, boots, and a black button up, and was waiting for Mal to show up so we can head out to the limo.

"Nikki....." a voice said and I turn to see Mal..... Whoa......

(Picture: Mallory's After-Wedding Outfit)

My eyes widen as she stepped out.

She really did still have it.....

"It still fits," she smiled softly, holding the skirt out.

I couldn't help but smile as I admired her.

She looks just as beautiful as our first wedding night in Las Vegas.

I then pulled her into my arms, kissing her passionately.

She stood on the tips of her toes as she wrapped her arms around my neck, kissing me back.

We then pulled back and I smiled down at her.

"I love you," I said.

She smiled. "I love you, too."

We then made sure we were ready, her bouquet in hand since she was going to make the toss outside where all our guests were.

"Let's go meet the hoard then, shall we, Mrs. Sixx?" I said, holding my hand out to her.

She smiled, placing her hand into mine. "Let's do it, Mr. Sixx."

We headed towards the main door of the reception hall and walk out, seeing our friends and family cheer for us at either side, tossing rice into the air over us.

We laughed as we made our way though, hugging and gripping the hands of people we passed, some photographers snapped some pictures.

"Time for the bouquet toss!!" I called out once we arrived to the limo, which had a huge JUST MARRIED sign hanging behind it.

The girls all cheered as Mal turned around and held her bouquet in her hands as the girls all grouped up at the front.

"Get ready!" Mal called out. "One.... Two.... Three!!"

Mal threw the bouquet high over her head and into the crowd, and sure enough despite the battle, Alexis ended up catching it.

Everyone cheered and congratulated her as she stood tehre with a surprised but happy look on her face.

She may currently not have someone in her life, but I know she'll find one someday.

Mostly since from what I've seen, her and Rachel have been getting along pretty well... They would be great together, honestly....

"Bye everyone, thank you for coming!" Mal shouted.

"See you all later!!" I shouted as everyone cheered and waved at us while we climbed into the limo, and soon we were off to the airport.

Mal smiled as she we leaned in and shared a passionate kiss.

"Is it possible to be anymore happy than I am right now?" she asked.

"I could say the same thing," I smiled as we continued to kiss and hold each other.

This has to officially be one of the most greatest days of my life.
