Lest I Forget (4)
The Justice said a few words about the power of love, but Al and I didn’t listen. At least, I didn’t. She might have, but the way she was looking at me, I wouldn’t have been surprised if she hadn’t. By the time we supposed to say our vows, we were both almost crying.
Al took a deep breath and started first. “Dana…I think I’ve been waiting for today since I interviewed you in that little restaurant. I never thought I’d be able to love you, let alone have you love me back. But somehow I managed to get both, and I don’t know how I got so lucky. All I know is that I’ve loved you all my life, and I will until I die. Probably longer than that, if it’s possible.” She drew a shaky breath. “I’m the luckiest person in the world to have had you come back to me. I don’t think I’d be anything worthwhile without you, and I’ll spend the rest of my life proving that to you. I love you.”
I was crying, but I talked anyway. “You never had to worry about me loving you back, Alice. I always did, and even if I’m bad at showing it sometimes, I’m luckier than you claim to be because you love me back. I don’t deserve it after everything I’ve done, but I must have done something right to deserve today. To deserve any day with you. You’re the only reason I’m alive today, and I’m going to spend the rest of my life making up for lost time. I love you more than I thought it was possible to love anyone, and I’m so honored you decided to share your life with me. You’re my everything, and I’ll never stop loving you.”
I watched the tears fill her eyes and spill over. In the background, I could vaguely hear the Justice pronouncing us married in the eyes of the city (if not the state, or the country, or whatever) before our friends and families, and wished us well.
That was all I knew as we were told we could kiss each other. To be honest, we were already halfway there. As I kissed my wife, I thought I’d never feel so complete and so so happy again. Luckily, the Fates deigned to prove me wrong…but that second we were married still ranks pretty fucking high.

I don’t know how you do it, but you just get better and better. Amazing chapter.
Yet again another breath taking chapter. I love Dana and Alice. This is simply amazing
sigh…that was so fucking incredible. I really think that may have been my absolute favorite thing that I’ve ever read of yours. It was just…whatever, there are no words. Sooooo good.
Beautiful! Thank you for another great update! The wedding I wish we could have seen on the show. So Danish that they woke up surprised that the big day was finally upon them. “If you gave her some security, her laptop and good food, she was pretty happy with life.” — I’m the same way! Except it could be mediocre food… I love how you wrote Alice’s reactions to the response to her book. Very “Alice”. And Gemma is a great character. Needless to say, I am looking forward to the next chapter!
I said it to you before, this chapter was sweet and cute. Looking forward to the next chapter when their children will be there…and ofcourse that special device you promised. ;)
that was realy beautiful. the vows were perfect. loved it.
Just re-read it because i was slacking like the nurse and didn’t leave a comment first time. Fabulously happy and beautiful vows :)
Aaaw yay that was so cute. Great chapter :)
Awesome as usual!
MT, I am back and thrilled to be able to read the last 3 chapters all at once. I am touched by the proposal in Ireland. A declining the 1st proposal made a lot of sense. What a great wedding it was. The wedding vows were astounding. It brought tears to my eyes. MT. you are doing a incredibly marvelous job in D talking about their past. I am in awe of how you write A’s responses. This story is truly beautifully written. As sad as A could no longer speak, their ability to communicate proved without a doubt that they were soulmates. Please let A linger a little bit longer. I realize all things must come to an end. But it is just too hard for me personally to accept it. I can’t wait to read more. Thank you very much MT.
fantastic..as usual:)
I saw you had posted and decided to keep it as a reward until I got posted…it was so worth it. Great!
