“Ready babe ?”

“I am “

Bette looked at Helena and Shane

“This didn’t happen “

“Yes Bette “ Shane started laughing

“Yes Bette “ Helena burst out laughing. Bette grinned – she felt pretty drunk but she was the sober one comparison to the other three.

“Lets do it “ she said to Tina taking her hand. As they all walked in music started

“Going to the chapel

And we’re gonna get married

Going to the chapel

And we’re gonna get married

Gee, I really love you

And we’re gonna get married

Going to the chapel of love

Spring is here, the sky is blue

Birds all sing like they knew

Today’s the day, we’ll say, "I do"

And we’ll never be lonely anymore”

“You are so cheesy Porter “ Helena said

“Part of my charm “ Bette said

“I love it – like I love you “ Tina kissed Bette on the cheek as they walked down the aisle. Bette and Tina had both insisted on a woman to “ do “ the ceremony. It was obvious from her jet black quiff that she also worked at the Elvis chapel a few doors away. She was soberly dressed but the quiff stood out a mile – Tina was almost hysterical with laughter. Bette was holding her up and grinning at everything and everyone.

“Are you both ready ?”

“Yes thanks “

The woman looked at Tina who did her best to stop laughing – she rubbed her face

“Sorry – ready and waiting “

After a few seconds of silence while the Bette Midler version of Chapel of Love was replaced by a 70’s song that Tina had told Bette she loved

　

　

　

“Softly, whispering I love you,

echoes of your voice are calling still through my dreams,

softening the chill of the breeze.

Through my window, I can see the moon glow painting silver shadows on a rose-colored land;

A world that we walk hand in hand in a day of gold colored by the glow of new love. Oh, Woman,

I can feel your warm face ever close to my lips and the scent of you invades the cool evening air.
