A FEW TEARS FELL FROM CARMEN'S EYES as she stood across from Happy, holding his hands with a wide smile across her face. The couple had decided today was as good as any to go to the court house and get married; was it unconventional? Of course, but Carmen and Happy were an unconventional couple.

Plus, she was only three weeks away from giving birth and Happy was adamant that Carmen have his last name along with their child.

"I love you, Carmen." Happy rasped as he tried his best to hold back his own tears.

The biker had been so excited when Carmen agreed to marry him, not that he was that worried she would have said no, but still there was a tiny bit of doubt in his mind when he asked. Happy had spent a week with the ring in his pocket, waiting for the perfect moment to ask.

"I love you too, Happy." Candy smiled, thanking Remi quickly as handed Carmen a tissue. "I can't wait to spend forever with you." She sniffled while wiping softly at her eyes as to not mess up her makeup.

"Me either, little girl." He smiled while softly wiping away some of the remaining tears with his thumb.

They had opted for small courthouse wedding instead of a big SAMCRO ordeal. Candy was too pregnant for such a big celebration nor did she want the whole big wedding, and Happy was more than fine with that. He had never saw himself as the marrying kind, so he had never envisioned himself having a big wedding with tons of people and all that fancy shit.

"Uh, so, the justice of the peace is running a little late." Quinn announced with a wary smile on her face. "But, he should be here in a few minutes." She quickly added in a hopeful tone as she took her spot next to Tara.

While Carmen and Happy had agreed on a small wedding; Carmen was adamant that she still wanted a maid of honor and bridesmaids. It was one tradition she was definitely keeping. It was no surprise that Carmen had picked Quinn as her maid of honor, while Remi and Tara were bridesmaids.

"Isn't this his fuckin' job? Shouldn't he be on time." Happy growled, growing impatient at each passing second. He was more than ready to marry Carmen and make her a Lowman.

"It's okay, Happy." Candy assured him with a smile. "I'm not going anywhere." She promised.

"I know you're not, little girl. I'm not either." His voice soft as he placed a kiss on her lips.

SAMCRO'S CLUBHOUSE WAS DECORATED BEAUTIFULLY as the newlyweds walked in hand in hand with smiles on their faces.

"Gemma," Carmen gasped as her brown eyes took in the clubhouse. "you truly out did yourself! This looks amazing! Thank you." She let go out Happy's hand for a moment to quickly throw her arms around the older brunette woman.

"You deserve it, baby." Gemma hugged Carmen tightly. "You both do." She looked over at Happy with a smile on her face.

"Thank you, Gem." Happy's voice was full of emotion as he placed a hand on his wife's lower back. "I appreciate everything you've done for me and Carmen." His voice was low, but it was full of gratitude towards the SAMCRO queen.

"Anytime." Gemma smiled as she placed a hand on Happy's shoulder before placing a loving hand on Carmen's large baby bump. "Now, let's celebrate." She winked before leading the married couple over towards a small table.

Carmen sat down, smiling up at Happy as he pulled her chair out for her before sitting down next to her. The couple had given Gemma the okay to throw a small party after the courthouse as long as she didn't go overboard and invite every charter around.

Surprisingly, she had kept to her promise and it was only SAMCRO and SAMTAC that had been invited.

"Are you happy, little girl?" Happy rasped into her ear as they watched their friends and family enjoying themselves.

"Of course I am. Are you?" Candy questioned as she smiled at her brother.

Happy gently placed his finger under her chin, turning her head towards him. "I'm the happiest I've ever been because of you and our future son. I love you, Carmen Lowman."

Tears filled Carmen's eyes at Happy words. "I love you too, Happy Lowman." She placed her lip's against his, smirking as she heard loud cheers and applause.

"I really don't need to see that!" Juice yelled from the crowd as Remi smacked his arm.

Carmen swiftly placed her middle finger in the air towards him, not bothering to remove her lips from Happy's.

THREE WEEKS LATER

CARMEN LAID IN THE HOSPITAL BED completely exhausted but full of happiness. Carlos Happy Lowman had arrived at exactly 6:30 pm on that Monday night. Happy sat next to her with a wide smile on his face as he held their sleeping son. Happy hadn't stopped smiling since his son was put in his arms, and the usually stoic biker didn't think he was going to be able to stop.

"I can't believe he's here." Happy's usually rough voice was soft as he looked over at Carmen with nothing but love in his dark eyes. "I never thought I'd be a dad." He admitted. "Now I'm a dad and a husband." He smiled.

"An amazing one." Carmen reminded with a tired smile. "I love you, Happy Lowman."

"I love you too, Carmen Lowman."

THE END.
