It was only three days before the wedding. I was starting to get nervous. I visited the hall with Duncan and his parents – who thankfully still liked me – and it was perfect. Duncan started taking もっと見る responsibility, seeing as he worked on the music. He refused to tell me who he hired to sing at our wedding, but he told me everything else. That kind of pissed me off that he didn't tell me that one little thing.
I was walking ホーム from Pixie's house after we met about the wedding. She was helping me out a lot since I had college work to do. I was going to Princeton – majoring in journalism – and I was ホーム for the wedding. I was allowed two weeks off for the wedding, but I had to so thrice as much work when I got back. It was a small price to pay to be together forever with the one I loved. Duncan was waiting a 年 before college just so he could plan the wedding. So sweet of him.
Last time he saw me was on my birthday. I wanted to surprise him with coming ホーム after he had a 雌犬 fit when I told him I would be boarding. I told him that I would be ホーム tomorrow. I walked to the door of our apartment and the smell of freshly popped ポップコーン slipped through the crack under the door. I smiled to myself as I pulled out my key. Everything was done silently. Opening the door, walking in (which was aided によって the grey carpet), and closing the door. I didn't see him in the キッチン または living room, so I walked into the bedroom. I brought my bag with me. I heard the water running and assumed that he was taking a shower. I placed my bag on the ベッド before pulling off my jacket.
I walked into the キッチン and saw a silver bowl with white ポップコーン overflowing inside. I popped a piece in my mouth before taking a bottle of water from the fridge. I took a sip and gently placed it down on the counter. The water stopped and some 音楽 started playing faintly.
I padded silently towards the door and I recognized the song as Monster によって Lady Gaga. I noticed Duncan mouthing the words as he pulled out a pair of black sweatpants from the closet. I had to cover my mouth to prevent myself from bursting out in laughter as he lip-synced and changed. I couldn't believe that he didn't see my bag on the bed. He closed his eyes as he walked towards the doorway. He clearly hadn't seen me, nor did he sense that there was someone else in his apartment. He passed right によって me, his eyes still closed and still mouthing the words.
I quickly changed into a black nightgown and walked back into the kitchen. I stood behind him and folded my arms. He was ridiculous. He turned around and smiled at me. "Hey, Gwen!" he called over the music. I widened my eyes. I'm gone for two weeks and all I get is a 'Hey, Gwen' when I come home? He turned back to what he was doing. I raised an eyebrow before he whipped around again, his eyes wide. "Gwen!" he screamed happily as he picked me up and spun me around. I giggled and wrapped my arms around his neck and my legs around his waist. He stopped spinning me and pressed his lips onto mine. "How long have あなた been in the apartment?" he asked in between kisses.
"Five minutes, maybe." I 発言しました back. Duncan reached with his right hand for the remote for the stereo. He stopped the 音楽 and tossed the remote onto the ソファー, ソファ before キス me again.
"So do あなた want to do anything other than," he winked and clicked his tongue. I giggled and kissed him one last time before jumping onto the floor.
"Watch a movie または two?" I asked.
"As あなた whish, darling." He 発言しました before walking with me over to the couch, the ポップコーン bowl in his free hand. His other was around my waist. I sat on the ソファー, ソファ as he placed the bowl on the coffee table. He walked back over to the キッチン and started working on something. I decided that I would choose the movie. I pulled out ハロウィン one and two. I put the first disk in and placed the 秒 case 次 to the bowl. I grabbed the remote and sat back down on the ソファー, ソファ as Duncan walked over with two glasses of wine from one of the bottles my mom bought for us. He handed me one and placed his on the coffee table. He grabbed something from the microwave and walked back over to me. He placed a small bowl of チョコレート 次 to the ポップコーン bowl. He remembered that I liked to have a bit of チョコレート on my popcorn. He sat down 次 to me as I started the movie. I laid back on his chest and he wrapped his arms around my waist. "Love you." He whispered in my ear before キス my cheek. I smiled and looked up at him.
"Love あなた too." I whispered back before placing a small キッス on his lips.
.oOo.
The 次 morning, I woke up with Duncan's arms wrapped around my waist. I tried to pull away from him, but his grip just got tighter. Today was the mark of only two days before the wedding.
Wait. The wedding is in two days.
I sat up and slapped Duncan. He sat up and screamed. He then proceeded to glare at me. "Glare at me when the wedding isn't in two days." I 発言しました before I crushed my lips into his. His eyes widened for a 秒 before he kissed back.
He pulled away from me and leaned his forehead on mine. "Two days, huh?" he asked. I nodded. "Huh." He 発言しました before キス me again. "Listen, I have to meet with someone in an hour. I won't be ホーム for a while."
"That's okay. I have to go meet Nora and Pixie for some last 分 things. Plus Bridgette is coming up from Miami to be part of the bridal party." I 発言しました while getting out of ベッド and starting to change. I put on a rather familiar outfit – the one that I wore when I won Total Drama World Tour - a pair of baggy dark blue jeans, a studded bet, and a black and red plaid シャツ with a black tank 上, ページのトップへ underneath. Again, I kept the シャツ unbuttoned as Duncan changed into his usual attire. I grabbed my wallet and phone along with my key before キス Duncan and leaving.
I walked down the 通り, ストリート to the local café and saw Nora with a coffee in her hand. I walked in and hugged her. "Hey! How's college?" she asked. She also went to college, but a different one.
"It's good. How about you?" I asked before ordering a coffee for myself.
"You know, work, life, drama, music, もっと見る work, もっと見る music, my asshole of a boyfriend," she said.
"Amen, sister." I 発言しました while paying for my coffee. I smirked as I remembered her constant ranting about her boyfriend. What I didn't understand was why didn't she just break up with the guy.
"So are あなた ready for the big day?" she asked while I got the caffeine that I so desperately needed. I nodded with a smile. "I can't stay for long. I have a thing with a guy." She 発言しました apologetically.
"That's cool. We just need to go over a few things once Pixie and Bridge get here." I told her before sitting down on one of the black couches. She sat 次 to me as the two of them walked in. They ordered and then walked down to us. Bridgette and I hugged as she 発言しました over and over again how much she missed me. "Okay. Now we need to talk." I said. We all sat down as Pixie took out a book from her bag and placed it on the table. I left the wedding notebook at her house last night. She opened it to the page with the bride's maids' dresses on it. There were names scribbled 次 to dresses as to who was wearing what. Pixie pointed to a black dress with a rich purple sash across the center.
"Okay. So that's everyone but Bridgette, right?" she asked. I nodded. Then she pointed to a purple one with a black sash. They were all strapless. "Maid of honor?" she asked. I nodded.
"They all came in last night." Nora said. I shipped them to her house because I thought that I wouldn't be there when they arrived. "Including yours, Gwen." She added while pointing to me. I smiled. Fingers crossed that everything goes well.

I sat in the park while I texted Nora. She was 歌う at the wedding. Not only because she could sing, but she offered to do it for free. The answer was obvious. I made her swear not to tell Gwen. And she was rather good at keeping promises. My phone vibrated in my pocket. I took it out and saw that Nora had texted me.
From: Nora
Message: I'm here.
I closed my phone and looked up. She was walking over to me with her ギター case in her hand. We already made the arrangements for the rest of the band. A few of my good フレンズ could play instruments so they were taking care of that for me. She smiled at me and sat 次 to me. "Okay. Double check on songs?" she asked. I nodded and pulled out a sheet.
"Okay. So the song that Gwen and I are dancing to is either If You're Wondering if I Want あなた To, Smile, または Thunder." I 発言しました while I scanned over the 一覧 of song names and artists.
"I know all three, so any one would work." She 発言しました while taking out her electric guitar. It was brown but darkens to black as it moves out to the edges.
"Plus あなた know a shitload of rock and alternative 音楽 for later."
"So which do あなた want?" she asked. I thought.
If You're Wondering if I Want あなた To was a sweet song but Gwen and I didn't really have any connections to it.
Thunder was sweet and it was the song that Gwen played for me when I broke up with Courtney on Total Drama Island. That's how we really first had a real heart-to-heart. And the first time that I really got to know her.
But Smile was what I sang for Gwen on her birthday last year. It was how I expressed my feelings to her when I wasn't man enough to say it in my own words. It mean a lot to both of us.
"Smile." I 発言しました with my own.
"Cool." She 発言しました while pulling out a sheet of paper and scribbling it on the 上, ページのトップへ line. "So it'll go a little like this." She 発言しました before setting the paper down and pulling a pick from her pocket and starting to strum. I nodded my head.
"That sounds good."
"Cool. So then for the family dance we have Your Guardian Angel?" she asked before she started to play the beginning of that. I nodded.
"Yeah. So when the bridal party comes in we have Holiday, right?" she started playing a few notes of the song.
"That's what I have. And then I'll just figure everything else out." She said.
"Mind if I ask あなた for a favor?"
"Sure. What is it?" she asked as she put her ギター back in its case.
"Come with me to the hall? I want to get your ギター there and also so we can test the sound." I asked. She nodded and we got into my car. I started driving just as I got a call from Gwen. I pressed my phone to my ear and smiled. "Hey, babe."
"Hey. So tonight, do あなた want to go out for dinner? I don't have any plans."
"Sure. What time?"
"Around seven?"
"Sure. I'll be ホーム in a few hours." I 発言しました to her before we 発言しました our goodbyes.
.oOo.
~ Gwen ~
Two days later, I'm sitting in my apartment, waiting for the bridal party to come. Duncan left early to go to a friend's house to get ready. I can only hope that he's not drinking. Then there was a knock on the door. I opened it and saw all my best フレンズ – sans the boys – standing in front of me with their dresses draped over their arms. They rushed inside and changed while I did the same. Pixie ran over to me and lectured me about how I shouldn't have done that myself as she zipped my up dress. Bridgette walked over to me with a rather large makeup box gripped in her hands.
"Sit." She 発言しました with a smile before she forced me down onto a chair at the counter. She turned the chair so that I was facing her. The makeup box was open as she pulled my hair back into a messy yet tight bun as she started to do my makeup. I shut my eyes as Marilyn started doing my hair. All I remember is a lot of poking and hairspray.
Then I just hear Nora exclaiming, "GUYLINER IS SEXY! I DON'T CARE WHAT あなた SAY!" to Nicole. Everyone started laughing after that.
"Why do I even bother?" Bridgette muttered while laughing as she finished my makeup.
"You look amazing." Pixie 発言しました to me when I was done. Then they went on to working on the rest of the bride's maids.
When we were all ready, a limo drove up in front of my apartment building. I smiled and hugged all my friends. We joked around the whole ride there, only for us to get shouted at によって Marilyn ("YOU'RE GOING TO MESS UP YOUR HAIR! STOP IT RIGHT NOW!").
When we got there, I was rushed into a small room right before Bridgette pushed the rest of the bride's maids out of the room. My mom rushed in with Richard. I already made it perfectly clear that he was not walking me down the isle. I would let my uncle do it. He was クーラー than Richard anyways. Geoff followed with an advanced Conon camera in his hands. He told me that it was his project for his 写真 course and the reason why he wasn't at that class. Then my uncle came in. He was によって far my お気に入り relative. He had brown-red hair that was almost never neat – even on my wedding 日 – with hazel eyes. He wore a nice black tux and smirked at me as he walked in.
"Well look how pretty the bride looks." He teased.
"Suck it, Rob." I snapped back with my own smirk.
"Would あなた two please stop it for today?" my mom asked. Even though she knew it was all in good fun, she was trying to impress Richard. It's hard to believe that he hadn't proposed to her yet. After my mom stopped gushing over me, Geoff told them to stand around me so he could take a photo. At first Rob gave me bunny ears, but my mom slapped his arm. He groaned and smiled normally as Geoff took the photo.
I turned to Rob and glared at him. "Don't be such a tool." I 発言しました playfully as Geoff left the room. Rob waved my コメント away with his hand before he pushed my mom and Richard out of the room.
"Up." He 発言しました while he held out a hand for me. I stood up and hooked my arm around his. I grabbed the bouquet of white and black flowers. I saw Bridgette's seven year-old cousin, Layla standing with her older sister as they were about to walk out. Layla was the 花 girl. Since she was the cutest little child I had ever seen in my life. Bridgette looked back at me and smiled. I smiled back before Bridgette and Layla walked out.
Soon it was my turn. I hesitated, but was pulled through the doors によって Rob. I started walking confidently on my own two feet when I saw Duncan smiling at me. My lips parted slightly as I smiled at him. Then Geoff snapped a picture. Today I wouldn't be bothered with it. Even if it bothered the shit out of me on Total Drama Island. Rob let go of my arm when we got to the alter and sat down with my mom. Duncan reached for my hands and I gladly let him hold him. I only remember looking into his ティール eyes before he slid a ring onto my finger before he kissed me.
After the ceremony, everyone carpooled to the reception. Duncan and I were driven in the limo that brought the bride's maids and me here. Everyone else found a way. I remember Duncan キス me multiple times before we got to the reception. I waited outside with my bridal party. Nicole could hardly stand still while Marilyn and Pixie stared at her. Nora told me that she was doing something else during that time for the reception. When I heard the 音楽 start, Nicole pulled me inside while she danced around like a drunken moron. And just to embarrass me, Pixie and Marilyn did the same. Then I saw Nora onstage with an old-fashion microphone (like the ones in My Chemical Romance's The Ghost Of あなた 音楽 video) in front of her and her hands gently holding her ギター as her right strummed gently. She smiled at me as she sang Holiday によって Green Day.
After that, Duncan dragged me out onto the dance floor and wrapped one arm around my waist while he held my right in his other. The band started to play and Nora started to sing as Duncan started dancing.
Nora: You're better then the best,
I'm lucky just to linger in your life,
クーラー then the flip side of my pillow, that's right.
Completely unaware,
Nothing can compare to where あなた send me,
Lets me know that it's okay, yeah it's okay.
And the moments where my good times start to fade,
I looked at Duncan and smiled at him. He was such a hopeless romantic. He had chosen the song that he song for me on Total Drama last year. "You are pathetic." I whispered to him as we danced.
"So what if I am? あなた know あなた 愛 me." He whispered back.
"I know I do. Why do あなた think I have this ring on my finger?"
"Touché." He paused for a moment. Then he kissed my lightly. I smiled and blushed. I was completely aware that Geoff was taking picture after picture. But I didn't care.
あなた make me smile like the sun,
Fall out of bed, sing like bird,
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record,
Crazy on a Sunday night.
あなた make me dance like a fool,
Forget how to breathe,
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee.
Just the thought of あなた can drive me wild,
Oh, あなた make me smile.
"I 愛 you." He whispered. I blushed again. "You know, every word she is 歌う is what I think about you."
"Aw, really?" I asked silently. He nodded.
"And whenever I wake up, you're the first thing on my mind. Not that I have bills to pay, not that I have to worry about work, you."
"You are too cheesy." I whispered before he pressed his lips to my cheek.
Even when you're gone,
Somehow あなた come along,
Just like a 花 poking the sidewalk crack and just like that,
あなた steal away the rain and just like that,
"Embrace the cheese, babe." He whispered. I giggled slightly. He swayed with me gently as everyone stared at us. But right then, I was only aware of Duncan. I thought we were the only two people in the room. No, in the world at that moment. I wasn't thinking about Richard, または college, または Geoff taking pictures, または anyone who may be ruining it. Nora's voice was just the soundtrack to that moment.
あなた make me smile like the sun,
Fall out of bed, sing like bird,
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record,
Crazy on a Sunday night.
あなた make me dance like a fool,
Forget how to breathe,
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee.
Just the thought of あなた can drive me wild,
Oh, あなた make me smile.
Duncan started to lightly sing the words to me under his breath. I smiled as his lips gently moved against my cheek as he sang. His warm, soft lips that smelled like Spearmint gum and his berry chap stick. I lightly kissed his cheek and blushed. As he kissed mine as well.
Don't know how I lived without you,
'Cause every time that I get around you,
I see the best of me inside your eyes.
あなた make me smile.
あなた make me dance like a fool,
Forget how to breathe,
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee.
Just the thought of あなた can drive me wild...
"Love you, babe." He whispered for the third time. I laughed a bit.
"Love あなた too, hun." I whispered back.
"More." He added. I smirked. So it was this game.
"More." I whispered back.
"That squared."
"Cubed."
"Plus ten."
"Plus one." I just smirked and let him win this time. He pressed his lips onto mine lightly as we danced.
あなた make me smile like the sun,
Fall out of bed, sing like bird,
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record,
Crazy on a Sunday night.
あなた make me dance like a fool,
Forget how to breathe,
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee.
Just the thought of あなた can drive me wild,
Oh, あなた make me smile.
Until the end of the song, we danced without talking. It almost seemed as if Duncan was trying to pass messages to me through his brainwaves with the way he stared at me. His soft smile just added to it. When the song ended we walked back to our 表, テーブル as Nora started a different song – Please Don't Leave Me によって P!nk. I just sat back and enjoyed the rest of the reception. Duncan was pulled onto the dance floor によって Nicole while I took a video of it with my phone. He tried to get my phone with me, but it ended up with him looming over me while we both laughed. I accidentally took a picture as Geoff did. I only noticed that I did when I was looking for the video.
As the sun set, Duncan and I sat outside によって the small pond that was there. Geoff took that as the last picture of the night. Then Duncan took one of us there with his own. He had to make me laugh first though. He just smirked and said, "Shark bait." I smiled as I remembered when we were in Jamaica as Cody 鳩 into the water. We both laughed and he took the picture. The perfect day, in my mind. Nothing could 上, ページのトップへ this.
または so I thought.
(Yays fun! I've watched like 10 映画 today :P I'm now tired, but I'm not. So... Please leave comments! Thanks 4 waiting for me to update! クッキー 4 all!!! *hands them out*)
I was walking ホーム from Pixie's house after we met about the wedding. She was helping me out a lot since I had college work to do.

Two days later, I'm sitting in my apartment, waiting for the bridal party to come. Duncan left early to go to a friend's house to get ready. I can only hope that he's not drinking.

"Why do I even bother?" Bridgette muttered while laughing as she finished my makeup.
"You look amazing." Pixie 発言しました to me when I was done. Then they went on to working on the rest of the bride's maids.
When we were all ready, a limo drove up in front of my apartment building. I smiled and hugged all my friends. We joked around the whole ride there, only for us to get shouted at によって Marilyn ("YOU'RE GOING TO MESS UP YOUR HAIR! STOP IT RIGHT NOW!").
When we got there, I was rushed into a small room right before Bridgette pushed the rest of the bride's maids out of the room. My mom rushed in with Richard. I already made it perfectly clear that he was not walking me down the isle. I would let my uncle do it. He was クーラー than Richard anyways. Geoff followed with an advanced Conon camera in his hands. He told me that it was his project for his 写真 course and the reason why he wasn't at that class. Then my uncle came in. He was によって far my お気に入り relative. He had brown-red hair that was almost never neat – even on my wedding 日 – with hazel eyes. He wore a nice black tux and smirked at me as he walked in.
"Well look how pretty the bride looks." He teased.
"Suck it, Rob." I snapped back with my own smirk.
"Would あなた two please stop it for today?" my mom asked. Even though she knew it was all in good fun, she was trying to impress Richard. It's hard to believe that he hadn't proposed to her yet. After my mom stopped gushing over me, Geoff told them to stand around me so he could take a photo. At first Rob gave me bunny ears, but my mom slapped his arm. He groaned and smiled normally as Geoff took the photo.
I turned to Rob and glared at him. "Don't be such a tool." I 発言しました playfully as Geoff left the room. Rob waved my コメント away with his hand before he pushed my mom and Richard out of the room.
"Up." He 発言しました while he held out a hand for me. I stood up and hooked my arm around his. I grabbed the bouquet of white and black flowers. I saw Bridgette's seven year-old cousin, Layla standing with her older sister as they were about to walk out. Layla was the 花 girl. Since she was the cutest little child I had ever seen in my life. Bridgette looked back at me and smiled. I smiled back before Bridgette and Layla walked out.
Soon it was my turn. I hesitated, but was pulled through the doors によって Rob. I started walking confidently on my own two feet when I saw Duncan smiling at me. My lips parted slightly as I smiled at him. Then Geoff snapped a picture. Today I wouldn't be bothered with it. Even if it bothered the shit out of me on Total Drama Island. Rob let go of my arm when we got to the alter and sat down with my mom. Duncan reached for my hands and I gladly let him hold him. I only remember looking into his ティール eyes before he slid a ring onto my finger before he kissed me.
After the ceremony, everyone carpooled to the reception. Duncan and I were driven in the limo that brought the bride's maids and me here. Everyone else found a way. I remember Duncan キス me multiple times before we got to the reception. I waited outside with my bridal party. Nicole could hardly stand still while Marilyn and Pixie stared at her. Nora told me that she was doing something else during that time for the reception. When I heard the 音楽 start, Nicole pulled me inside while she danced around like a drunken moron. And just to embarrass me, Pixie and Marilyn did the same. Then I saw Nora onstage with an old-fashion microphone (like the ones in My Chemical Romance's The Ghost Of あなた 音楽 video) in front of her and her hands gently holding her ギター as her right strummed gently. She smiled at me as she sang Holiday によって Green Day.
After that, Duncan dragged me out onto the dance floor and wrapped one arm around my waist while he held my right in his other. The band started to play and Nora started to sing as Duncan started dancing.
Nora: You're better then the best,
I'm lucky just to linger in your life,
クーラー then the flip side of my pillow, that's right.
Completely unaware,
Nothing can compare to where あなた send me,
Lets me know that it's okay, yeah it's okay.
And the moments where my good times start to fade,
I looked at Duncan and smiled at him. He was such a hopeless romantic. He had chosen the song that he song for me on Total Drama last year. "You are pathetic." I whispered to him as we danced.
"So what if I am? あなた know あなた 愛 me." He whispered back.
"I know I do. Why do あなた think I have this ring on my finger?"
"Touché." He paused for a moment. Then he kissed my lightly. I smiled and blushed. I was completely aware that Geoff was taking picture after picture. But I didn't care.
あなた make me smile like the sun,
Fall out of bed, sing like bird,
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record,
Crazy on a Sunday night.
あなた make me dance like a fool,
Forget how to breathe,
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee.
Just the thought of あなた can drive me wild,
Oh, あなた make me smile.
"I 愛 you." He whispered. I blushed again. "You know, every word she is 歌う is what I think about you."
"Aw, really?" I asked silently. He nodded.
"And whenever I wake up, you're the first thing on my mind. Not that I have bills to pay, not that I have to worry about work, you."
"You are too cheesy." I whispered before he pressed his lips to my cheek.
Even when you're gone,
Somehow あなた come along,
Just like a 花 poking the sidewalk crack and just like that,
あなた steal away the rain and just like that,
"Embrace the cheese, babe." He whispered. I giggled slightly. He swayed with me gently as everyone stared at us. But right then, I was only aware of Duncan. I thought we were the only two people in the room. No, in the world at that moment. I wasn't thinking about Richard, または college, または Geoff taking pictures, または anyone who may be ruining it. Nora's voice was just the soundtrack to that moment.
あなた make me smile like the sun,
Fall out of bed, sing like bird,
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record,
Crazy on a Sunday night.
あなた make me dance like a fool,
Forget how to breathe,
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee.
Just the thought of あなた can drive me wild,
Oh, あなた make me smile.
Duncan started to lightly sing the words to me under his breath. I smiled as his lips gently moved against my cheek as he sang. His warm, soft lips that smelled like Spearmint gum and his berry chap stick. I lightly kissed his cheek and blushed. As he kissed mine as well.
Don't know how I lived without you,
'Cause every time that I get around you,
I see the best of me inside your eyes.
あなた make me smile.
あなた make me dance like a fool,
Forget how to breathe,
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee.
Just the thought of あなた can drive me wild...
"Love you, babe." He whispered for the third time. I laughed a bit.
"Love あなた too, hun." I whispered back.
"More." He added. I smirked. So it was this game.
"More." I whispered back.
"That squared."
"Cubed."
"Plus ten."
"Plus one." I just smirked and let him win this time. He pressed his lips onto mine lightly as we danced.
あなた make me smile like the sun,
Fall out of bed, sing like bird,
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record,
Crazy on a Sunday night.
あなた make me dance like a fool,
Forget how to breathe,
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee.
Just the thought of あなた can drive me wild,
Oh, あなた make me smile.
Until the end of the song, we danced without talking. It almost seemed as if Duncan was trying to pass messages to me through his brainwaves with the way he stared at me. His soft smile just added to it. When the song ended we walked back to our 表, テーブル as Nora started a different song – Please Don't Leave Me によって P!nk. I just sat back and enjoyed the rest of the reception. Duncan was pulled onto the dance floor によって Nicole while I took a video of it with my phone. He tried to get my phone with me, but it ended up with him looming over me while we both laughed. I accidentally took a picture as Geoff did. I only noticed that I did when I was looking for the video.
As the sun set, Duncan and I sat outside によって the small pond that was there. Geoff took that as the last picture of the night. Then Duncan took one of us there with his own. He had to make me laugh first though. He just smirked and said, "Shark bait." I smiled as I remembered when we were in Jamaica as Cody 鳩 into the water. We both laughed and he took the picture. The perfect day, in my mind. Nothing could 上, ページのトップへ this.
または so I thought.
