Chapter Twenty-Five
Three Months Later…
After months of planning, Kody and Aurora's wedding day was finally here. The wedding was taking place in Sleepy Hollow New York. The wedding was taking place in the very same church where Paul and Stephanie had exchanged their vows back in 2003, Avila Catholic Church. It seemed like the most logical place to hold the wedding since Kody's family was from Pennsylvania while Aurora's was from Connecticut and New Hampshire. The church was packed. Friends and family of both the bride and groom filled the pews completely.
"You look so beautiful Aurora." Stephanie said with tears in her eyes. Seeing her little girl in her beautiful silk white wedding dress made it hard for Steph to compose herself. She was helping her daughter with the finishing touches in her dressing room.
"I love how I look in this dress. It was worth every penny. I'm so excited Mom. I'm getting married!" Aurora exclaimed taking her mother into her arms for a hug.
"I know honey! I'm so happy for you! Are you nervous?" Steph asked with enthusiasm as she fixed the little ruffles in Aurora's wedding dress.
"No, I just can't wait to marry Kody. He's my soul mate, Mom." Aurora gushed still checking herself out in the full length mirror.
"You remind me so much of me when I was young. You are an even more beautiful bride than I was." Steph told her daughter as the door to the plush dressing room opened.
"Oh my God, Aurora, sweetheart, you're a vision in white." Paul said as he walked into the dressing room, closing the door behind him.
"You really think so, Daddy?"
"I know so baby. You're going to look exquisite when I walk you down the aisle." Paul said taking Aurora's hands in his as he beamed with pride. Both he and Stephanie had looked forward to this day since Aurora was born.
"Oh Daddy, this is the happiest day of my life. Thank you for supporting me. I love you." Aurora said as she embraced her father.
"I wouldn't miss this wedding for the world sweetheart."
Kody stood in front of the mirror of his dressing room fixing his tuxedo. AyyJay stood next to him; he too was fixing his suit. Kody Angle was back to being one hundred percent after Cameron's assault on him. Aurora never left his side while he recuperated. They bought the house in Pittsburgh and had been living in it for the past month. The house décor along with the wedding planning was what kept Aurora busy the past few months.
"We look damn good." AyyJay commented staring and himself and Kody in the mirror.
"Yeah we do. Don't forget how we rehearsed the set up. You stand next to me up at the front of the church at the altar."
"Yeah, I remember, no sweat. I'm going to go check on my date. See you out there man." AyyJay said giving Kody a pat on the back before leaving.
"You clean up nice, Angle."
Kody turned around to see Paul Levesque walk into his dressing room. While Paul had been acting polite toward him ever since he found out that Cameron was the real problem in Aurora's life, Paul was never really big on conversing with Kody.
"Thanks Mr. Levesque. I appreciate you coming to Aurora and my wedding. It really means a lot to her…To both of us." Kody said as Paul walked further into the room.
"Listen, you and I never really got a chance to talk." Paul said as he approached Kody.
"I was wrong to judge you. You're a good man. I now see that you really do love my daughter not because of her birth right but just her. I'm just thankful that Aurora has you."
"Mr. Levesque that-"
"Please, call me Paul...Or Dad. Whatever you're comfortable with. I don't care what your last name is anymore, Kody. All I care about is how you treat my daughter. I'm going to be proud to have you in my family. I just hope that maybe you can forgive me for how I've behaved and maybe come to like me as a father-in-law." Paul said as he extended his hand for Kody to shake.
"Wow…I'd really like us to start a fresh, to put all fighting from the past several months behind us. Your acceptance means a lot to me, Paul." Kody replied as he took Paul's hand in his for a handshake. Paul then pulled Kody into a hug.
"Am I interrupting something?" Kurt asked as he peeked his head into the dressing room just in time to see the short embrace shared between Paul and Kody.
"Paul and I were just burying the hatchet, Dad."
"We need to get things rolling son. Stephanie and your mother are about to get into it over the placement of the groom's men and bride's maids. You need to head out to the altar." Kurt told his son with a smile as he placed his hand on Kody's shoulder.
"Thanks Dad, I'll see you guys out there." Kody said leaving Paul and Kurt in the dressing room.
"Well this is it, Angle. We're about to become family. Stephanie and I had a heart to heart a month or so ago. She told me about that night when you went to her hotel room. What made you change your mind about sleeping with her?" Paul asked looking right into Kurt's eyes. He wanted to hear Kurt's side of the story. It puzzled him how Angle could just walk away from Stephanie when she had been ready to go.
"I realized how much I loved my wife and family. I could never do that to them. I thought about what it would be like if my wife cheated on me with a former co-worker. You don't deserve that, Levesque, no matter how much of an asshole you've been in the past." Kurt confessed bluntly.
"Fair enough, Angle. Now that we've discussed that event we don't have to bring it up ever again. This wedding is about a fresh start…for everyone. Come on, I think it's about to start."
Kurt took his seat next to his wife in the first pew on the right side of the church. He gave his son a smile. Kody stood with the priest. Next to him were Jones and Daniels. While AyyJay was the best man, Kody couldn't leave Josh out of the wedding party since he was a close friend as well. The church had been renovated since Paul and Stephanie's wedding making it even more of a beautiful sacred dwelling for the event. The flowered used in the wedding décor were roses of all different colors. As the bride's maids made there way down the aisle, the flourishing bouquets of pink and red roses made all the wedding guests take notice. Aurora's maid of honor was her childhood friend that had lived locally in Greenwich where she had grown up. The other maids included other friends of Aurora as well as Kyra. Kyra and Aurora had become rather close over the past few months. Once the bride's maids were in place at the foot of the altar the wedding march of "Here comes the bride" began to play. The wedding guests stood as Aurora and her father began to make there way down the aisle. Kody couldn't keep his eyes off of his bride. Aurora's perfectly made up face was covered by her white veil. Still Kody could see his bride smiling back at him.
"Who gives this woman to this man?" The priest asked aloud once the wedding march ceased.
"I do." Paul replied in a loud confident tone of voice as he walked up to the altar with his daughter. His eyes shifted to Kody and then to his daughter. Gently, Paul grasped the veil and pulled it back so that his daughter's face was visible. He gave her a soft kiss on the forehead and whispered that he loved her before he placed her hand in Kody's and back away. Stephanie smiled through her tears as Paul sat down next to her. She took his hand in hers and gave him a kiss. They were both crying.
Kody and Aurora smiled at each other before they turned to face the Priest, holding hands as the maid of honor took the bouquet from Aurora's other hand and fixed the train of her wedding dress.
"We are gathered here today in the sight of God, and the presence of friends and loved ones, to celebrate one of life's greatest moments. We are here to give recognition to the worth and beauty of love, and to add our best wishes and blessings to the words that will unite Kody Angle and Aurora Rose Levesque in holy matrimony. If there is anyone present who has just cause why this couple should not be united let them speak now or forever hold their peace." The Priest said then paused giving time for anyone to speak out. The church was silent for a moment before the Priest continued.
"Kody and Aurora, marriage is the most important of all earthly relationships. It should be entered into reverently, thoughtfully, and with full understanding if its sacred nature. Your marriage must stand by the strength of your love and the power of faith in each other and in God. Just as two threads woven in opposite directions form a beautiful tapestry, so to your lives when merged together will make a beautiful marriage." The priest said. Kody looked over to Aurora, she was beaming with happiness. He mouthed the words "I love you"
"I would like to call upon a passage from the first scripture of Paul to the Corinthians: Love is very patient and kind, never jealous or envious, never boastful or proud.
Love is never haughty or selfish or rude. Love does not demand its own way.
Love is not irritable or touchy. Love does not hold grudges and will hardly notice when others do it wrong. Love is never glad about injustice, but rejoices whenever truth wins out. If you love someone, you will be loyal to them no matter what the costs.
You will always believe in them, always expect the best in them, and will always stand your ground in defending them." The priest read with inflection. Kurt and Karen glanced over at Paul and Stephanie. Both couples were crying tears of joy silently.
"I would not ask that the bride and groom face each other. Kody, I would like you to repeat after me as I say the vows. I, Kody Angle, take you, Aurora Levesque, to be my wife, my partner in life and my one true love. I will cherish our friendship and love you today, tomorrow, and forever. I will trust you and honor you. I will laugh with you and cry with you. I will love you faithfully through the best and the worst, through the difficult and the easy. Whatever may come I will always be there. As I have given you my hand to hold. So I give you my life to keep, so help me God." Kody said each word as the Priest said it never taking his eyes off Aurora as he spoke.
"And now, Aurora, I would like you to repeat after me as I say the vows. I, Aurora Levesque, take you, Kody Angle, to be my husband, my partner in life and my one true love. I will cherish our friendship and love you today, tomorrow, and forever. I will trust you and honor you. I will laugh with you and cry with you. I will love you faithfully through the best and the worst, through the difficult and the easy. Whatever may come I will always be there. As I have given you my hand to hold. So I give you my life to keep, so help me God." Aurora said through tears as she smiled while reciting the vows after the Priest said them.
"I would now like to speak the word of the Apostle, John: Dear friends, let us continue to love one another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves is born of God and knows God. But anyone who does not love does not know God-for God is love."
Vince and Linda McMahon sat in the row behind Paul and Stephanie. Vince turned to his wife looking a bit confused.
"Stephanie's getting married again?" Vince whispered in Linda's ear as he looked back and forth between the bride and Linda.
"No, that's your granddaughter, Aurora."
"God showed how much he loved us by sending his only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through him. This is real love. It is not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins." The priest said continuing his scripture reading.
"Isn't that Kurt Angle standing up there with Stephanie?" Vince whispered back to his wife, this time a little louder that caused Stephanie to turn her head.
"Shhhh!" both Stephanie and Linda said in unison, shutting Vince up so they could hear the service.
"Dear friends, since God loved us that much, we surely ought to love each other. No one has ever seen God. But if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love has been brought to full expression through us." The priest said finishing reading the passage. He look up from the bible in his hand and at the couple.
"Kody Angle, do you take Aurora Levesque to be your wife?"
"I do." Kody quickly replied with a smile.
"Do you promise to love, honor, cherish and protect her, forsaking all others and holding unto her forevermore?"
"I do." Kody said again in a confident tone of voice.
"Aurora Levesque, do you take Kody Angle to be your husband?"
"I do." Aurora answered.
"Do you promise to love, honor, cherish and protect him, forsaking all others and holding unto him forevermore?"
"I do." Aurora repeated this time wiping away a tear from her face as she smiled at her groom.
"The ring is a symbol of the unbroken circle of love. Love freely given has no beginning and no end, no giver and no receiver for each is the giver and each is the receiver. May these rings always remind you of the vows you have taken." The Priest stated.
"Who has the rings?" The Priest then asked. AyyJay quickly pulled them out of his pocket and gave them to the Priest. The Priest then turned to Kody and placed a ring in his hand and told him to repeat after him.
"I, Kody Angle, take thee, Aurora Levesque, to be my wife. To have and to hold, in sickness and in health, for richer or for poorer, in joy and sorrow, and I promise my love to you. And with this ring, I take you as my wife, for as long as we both shall live." Kody repeated as he took Aurora by the hand and gently slid the ring on her finger.
"Aurora, would you please take this ring and repeat after me." The Priest said to Aurora as he handed her the wedding band.
"I, Aurora Levesque, take thee, Kody Angle, to be my husband. To have and to hold, in sickness and in health, for richer or for poorer, in joy and sorrow, and I promise my love to you. And with this ring, I take you as my husband, for as long as we both shall live." Aurora said as she slid the wedding band on Kody's hand. They smiled at each other knowing that the ceremony was coming closer to an end. That soon they would be pronounced husband and wife.
"Bless their marriage, O God, as they begin their journey down the road of life together. We don't know what lies ahead for the road turns and bends. But help them make the best of whatever comes their way. Help them to continue to enjoy each other as they did when they first met. Help them realize that nothing nor no one is perfect and to look for the good in all things and all people including themselves. Help them to respect each other's likes and dislikes, opinions and beliefs, hopes and dreams and fears even though they may not always understand them. Help them to learn from each other and to help each other grow mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Help them realize that no matter what happens to them they will hold on to each other and know that things have a way of working out for the good. Help them to create for their children a peaceful, stable home of love as a foundation on which they can build their lives. But most of all, dear God, help them to keep lit the torch of love that they now share so that by their loving example they may pass on the light of love to their children and to their children's children forever. In Jesus' name we pray, Amen."
"Amen." Everyone in the church said after the Priest.
"I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss your bride."
Kody wasted no time taking Aurora into his arms. It was at that moment, with all their family and friends in attendance did they kiss for the first time as husband and wife. The kiss was passionate yet not unbridled.
"I would like to introduce Mr. and Mrs. Kody and Aurora Angle!" The Priest said in a joyous tone of voice that was met with an outburst of applause. The wedding guests got to their feet while the wedding march began to play. Hand in hand, Kody and Aurora walked briskly down the aisle together toward the church doors and their awaiting limo outside the church.
"Ladies and gentleman, appearing the first time for the first dance, Mr. and Mrs. Kody Angle!" The wedding singer announced as Elvis Presley's "Can't Help Falling in Love" began to play. Hand in hand, the newlyweds walked out onto the dance floor at their reception to a roaring applause.
Wise men say only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay
Would it be a sin
If I cant help falling in love with you
Everyone stood by around the dance floor watching Kody and Aurora slow dance close together. Anyone who was watching could see that they were in love as they frequently kissed.
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I cant help falling in love with you
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I cant help falling in love with you
For I cant help falling in love with you
There was another roar of applause as the song came to a close. A passionate kiss was shared between the bride and groom.
"At this time we would like to invite Aurora's father to come on the dance floor for a father-daughter dance."
A somewhat shy Paul made his way onto the dance floor as Kody stood off to the side with his friends and family. Paul wasn't someone who liked to dance. He was going to do this for his daughter. Stephanie was beaming at the sight of her daughter and husband on the dance floor. Her eyes started to tear as the song "Daddy's Little Girl" began to play.
You're the end of the rainbow, my pot of gold,
You're daddy's little girl to have and hold.
A precious gem is what you are,
You're mommy's bright and shining star.
"I love you sweetheart. I just can't believe you're all grown up and married." Paul whispered to his daughter as he led her in a slow father daughter dance.
You're the spirit of Christmas, my star on the tree,
You're the Easter bunny to mommy and me.
You're sugar you're spice, you're everything nice,
And you're daddy's little girl.
"Daddy, thank you so much for accepting Kody into the family. He told me about the conversation you had with him on our way here in the limo." Aurora whispered back as tears began to stream down her face.
You're the end of the rainbow, my pot of gold,
You're daddy's little girl to have and hold.
A precious gem is what you are,
You're mommy's bright and shining star.
"I love you baby girl. I just want you and Kody to be happy."
You're the treasure I cherish so sparkling and bright,
You were touched by the holy and beautiful light.
Like angels that sing a heavenly thing,
And you're daddy's little girl
When the song ended, Paul embraced his daughter in a hug that lasted for a few moments. It was clear that he was soaking in this special moment in Aurora's young life. It seemed like just yesterday he was changing her diapers. Now she was a married woman getting ready to start her own family.
"At this moment I would like to invite the wedding guests onto the dance floor." The wedding singer said. Aurora and her father walked off as quiet a few guests walked onto the dance floor.
"Aurora that was the most beautiful wedding I've ever seen. I've been dreaming of this day since you were born." Stephanie said through tears as she took her daughter into her arms.
"It was beautiful. I don't think I've ever seen a happier couple." Karen added fixing her son's tux while Kurt patted his son on the back.
"Mom, please stop crying, you're going to make me cry more. I already did enough of that when Dad and I were dancing." Aurora said wiping under her eyes as Kody took her into his arms.
"Come on Mrs. Angle, let's go sit at our table and get something to eat. You don't want to eat cake on an empty stomach now do you?" Kody asked taking his wife by the hand. Aurora gave him a quick kiss before they walked away from their parents together and sat down at their table.
"Hey Paul, congratulations the wedding was very well done. I appreciate you inviting me after what went down." Shawn Michaels said after he approached Paul. He looked a little uneasy which was a drastic change from how he usually is around his best friend.
"Shawn, you know you're my best friend. What happened with Cameron isn't your fault. I know you raised him better than that. I'm just sorry things went down that way."
"I am too. Right now I think jail is the best place for Cameron. I hope he can learn from this situation and maybe find God again. He wasn't this way as a child. I really don't know what went wrong." Shawn said, he was obviously embarrassed by his son's behavior and was trying to apologize to his friend.
"I agree, I think few years in jail could have a positive influence on him. I appreciate you coming. I know it wasn't easy." Paul said giving his friend a hug.
Vince and Linda sat at a near by table enjoying the sight of all the festivities going on around them. Vince seemed content. That is until he caught sight of Dixie Carter sitting at a table that was only a few feet away.
"What the hell is she doing here?" Vince asked his wife as he pointed to where TNA president Dixie Carter was sitting.
"The Angles invited her to the wedding, Vince. You know Kody Angle is under contract with TNA. You are going to sit right here and enjoy our grand daughter's reception. If you get up and make a scene so help me God Vince McMahon I will make sure you live to regret it." Linda said sternly as she held on to her husband's hand when he started to get up from the table.'
"Linda, she's here to spy on us! To steal our ideas! She wants to beat me in the ratings!" Vince hollered, his face starting to get red as he shook with fury.
"No she's her to enjoy the reception just like we're going to do. Now shut up and eat your food."
"Kody Angle, a married man. I never thought I would see the day. How does it feel, being a married and all?" AyyJay asked approaching the newlyweds table.
"It feels damn good. The honeymoon is going to feel even better." Kody said with a smirk, he leaned over and kissed his bride.
"Aurora I'm so happy that you're officially part of the family now. You and my baby brother are going to give me adorable nieces and nephews." Kyra gushed hugging both Aurora and then Kody.
"When are you going to settle down with that special someone, Kyra?" Aurora asked her sister-in-law.
"Hey hottie, I'm available." AyyJay said with a smile.
"Jones, don't even go there. Didn't you come here with a date?" Kyra asked watching AyyJay Jones fix his best man tuxedo.
"Yeah, where is blondie?" AyyJay said looking around. He quickly left the table to go find his date.
"When I find the right guy I will settle." Kyra replied answering Aurora's question, her eyes strayed to the dance floor. She saw all the happy couples dancing together. That was something she was missing in her life as of late. She didn't have a great history at choosing men that were good for her.
"Do you have a date? Because I would be honored if you would dance with me."
Kyra looked at the guy standing right in front of her. He was gorgeous. Nice jet black hair and gentle brown eyes was the first features that Kyra noticed that almost rendered her speechless.
"Kyra, this is my cousin, Declan James McMahon. Declan, this is Kyra Marie Angle, Kody's older sister." Aurora said formally introducing the two to each other.
"It's great to meet you, Kyra. Would I be too bold if I said that you are by far the most breathtakingly beautiful woman I have ever seen in all my life?" Declan asked as Aurora looked over at Kody, completely surprised by Declan's forwardness.
"I think that's the most flattering compliment of my life. I remember you. I remember you from when my father was working in WWE. I was like barely four the last time I saw you." Kyra said with a smile.
"So Kyra, are you going to dance with him or what?" Kody asked his sister trying to move along the conversation while Declan James and Kyra simply stared at each other.
"Yes, I'd love too." Kyra said holding out her hand for Declan to take. Without hesitation, the young McMahon took it and led her onto the dance floor."
"Wow, I didn't see that coming." Kody said with a chuckle before he leaned in for a passionate kiss.
"Look how happy they look." Kurt commented to Stephanie as he walked up next to her. It had been the first time they talked one on one since that night in her hotel room. Both would have felt awkward approaching the other about their decision not to have an affair.
"They look like the happiest couple in the world." Steph said as she wiped away the tears as they started to stream down her face.
"Yeah, looking at them sitting there, seeing how they are looking at each other. It's almost like they are us. I mean a younger version of us. I couldn't shake that thought as I watched the wedding ceremony. It makes sense, the feelings that we had for each other, the mutual attraction. We passed that on to our children, Stephanie. We weren't meant to be….But they were." Kurt said in a softer voice that only Stephanie could hear. He had finally figured it out.
What he said made Steph smile. Looking at her daughter and Kurt's son did make Stephanie think about her and Kurt. She thought about what could have been. The point is that it didn't. Kurt and Stephanie were not meant to be. Kody and Aurora however were a match made in heaven. Perhaps the chemistry that Steph and Kurt shared did serve a purpose, if only to be passed on to their children.
The wedding reception marched on. All the traditions came to pass: the bride and groom cutting the cake and the many toasts that followed. Nearly every TNA and WWE superstar had a few words to say about Kody and Aurora tying the knot.
"I would like to make a toast to my best bud. We've been friends since we were little kids hanging out backstage at the TNA Impact! Zone as our famous fathers made history for Total Nonstop Action Wrestling. We've been through a lot together. I'm not going to start going through stories because some of them aren't appropriate. Now that you're married I guess I'm going to have to beg Daniels to go clubbing with me. But seriously, I wish you and Aurora all the best. I hope you live in happiness forever. Here, here." AyyJay Jones said holding his toasting glass in the air.
"I would like to wish my son and his beautiful bride all the happiness in the world as they start their new life together. I hope that they have a marriage filled with love and happy healthy children to carry on the wrestling tradition that is prominent in both the Angle and Levesque family. Congratulations son, your mother, sister, and I are proud of you." Kurt said almost getting choked up as he raised his glass to his son.
"I don't know if all of you know why I chose the name Aurora Rose for my daughter when she was born. My favorite book as a little girl was "Sleeping Beauty". The story about the beautiful princess named Aurora who was brought back to life by the kiss of her one true love, Prince Philip. Well our Princess Aurora's prince is named Kody instead of Philip but you get the picture. Kody is the knight in shining armor that I always dreamed of for my daughter. I am so thankful that my daughter has found someone who will love and cherish her just as much as her father and I have done since the day she was born." Stephanie said trying her best to hold back her tears. She is unable to continue as the tears start to flow.
"It's okay, Steph. Wow, let's see if I can top my wife's toast. I'll try not to get as emotional but that might be hard. Aurora is my one and only child. Even though I can see the bright beautiful woman that is sitting before you tonight, I still see my little baby girl. It seems like yesterday she was born. That was, without a doubt, the greatest moment of my life. No hall of fame nominee or world title reign I have had in the past can even come close to the feeling of holding my child in my arms for the first time. I felt like a proud father, just like I felt today watching my little girl marry the man of her dreams. I know Kody and I didn't hit it off when he first started dating my daughter but I've really learned to love him like a son. With that said I would like present my daughter and her new husband with the deed to a brand new home in Greenwich Connecticut just a few minutes from Aurora's childhood home. It's completely paid for. Stephanie and I bought if for the married couple with the hope that they will use the second home to visit us for a few months out of the year." Paul said looking right at his daughter who had gotten to her feet and started running toward him.
"Oh my God, Daddy, thank you so much!" Aurora exclaimed, "Thank you Mom!"
"Thank you Paul and Stephanie." Kody said giving both his in-laws a hug.
"When you and Aurora get back from your honeymoon, come talk to Stephanie. We want you to sign a non exclusive contract with us. I don't want TNA to be the only wrestling promotion with the greatest wrestler of this generation." Paul said giving Kody a pat on the back.
The reception came to a close with one last dance. Natalie Cole's version of "Unforgettable" began to play as the immediate family walked onto the dance floor.
Paul and Stephanie couldn't help but think of their own wedding reception. "Unforgettable" was their wedding song. They had come along way as a couple since their wedding day back in 2003. Looking back on their marriage, both Stephanie and Paul remembered the good times as well as the bad ones: the birth of their daughter, watching her grow into a beautiful well adjusted woman, and at the same time their own problems as a couple. Through it all, Paul and Stephanie had made it to twenty-five years. That in itself was an accomplishment. The fact that they wanted to spend the rest of their lives together only made their marriage even more special.
Unforgettable, that's what you are
Unforgettable though near or far
Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things to me
Never before has someone been more
"I love you." Stephanie told Paul.
Unforgettable in every way
And forever more, that's how you'll stay
That's why, darling, its incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too
"I love you too. I can't remember the last time you saying that has meant so much to me. I'm so in love with you, Stephanie." Paul whispered before kissing her passionately as the song's instrumental interlude played.
"I love you Karen. There's no other woman I want to be with than you. I was wrong about my feelings about Stephanie. I understand it now. She'll never be what you are to me. Karen, you're the mother of my children, the only woman for me." Kurt whispered to his wife as they danced.
"I've waited so long to hear that from you. I love you too baby." Karen said as she started to cry before Kurt gave her a kiss.
"I can't believe we're married. This wedding was a dream come true. Not only are you my husband but my parents actually accepted you into our family. Pinch me please I think I'm dreaming." Aurora said with a giggle as she gave Kody a few quick kisses.
Unforgettable in every way
And forever more, that's how you'll stay
That's why, darling, its incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too
"I think I'm dreaming too, baby. I'm going to make you the happiest wife in the world. I promise. You're my whole life now. You come before my wrestling career, all my titles and accolades. You're my whole world. I love you so much." Kody whispered before pressing his lips against Aurora's. They stopped dancing in the middle of the dance floor as their kiss became deep and passionate.
Kody and Aurora's wedding was a complete success. It wasn't just successful because the two young lovers were married without a hitch but it marked the very day where conflicts that had been unresolved for more than twenty years finally were put to rest. The wedding marked the end of the McMahon-Levesque/ Angle feud. All that was left now was to live happily ever after as one big happy family. All the events that transpired that day pointed to that happy fairytale ending. Life can't always be perfect and without conflict but at least the Levesque-Angle family can say that they were able to put their differences aside and come together to unite. Isn't that a fairytale within itself?
