if you're not the one (braelynn)

Zander was panicking but not because he was about to get married but because Bay was out in the open and that was a horrifying thought. After contacting Carson for help, they had finally arrived in Brazil. It was simple, really, deciding how they were going to do this. With Baylee as the Lelia as the witness, they had everything they needed for this wedding. Carson would officiate, which was enough to make Zander a little teary. He was a big baby when it came to this kind of thing, really. They were in some high up place in a mountain type setting, but of course it was all rainforesty. They had placed protective enchantments in a twenty foot radius, just to be safe.

Zander was standing up front with Carson, ringing his hands together. He was wearing something simple, just a white button up shirt and some brown slacks. He knew they didn't need anything fancy, they never did. He took in a deep breath, glancing at his Uncle who gave him an encouraging wink. Zander smiled back, swallowing hard. Then the music started, somewhere off to the side his guitar was enchanted to play. Then Baylee, Zanders cousin, came forward like the giddy hyperactive child she was and spread flowers, and occasionally strange leafs, on the ground. Zander felt the rock in his throat start to dissipate, knowing Bay was going to come through those trees any second...

Braelynn couldn't believe they were really doing this. She was both excited, and terrified. Excited before she wanted to be with Zander. Terrified because this was a huge milestone in her life. She'd always known she'd be married pretty young, that'd been the plan practically her entire life. And yet, despite always knowing that it still scared her. But every time she saw Zander smile, those fears melted away. She knew who she wanted to spend the rest of her life with. She'd already lost him once. She wasn't going to lose him again.

So, here they were. In Brazil, so Carson could marry them. It wasn't exactly the wedding anyone really expected. Zander had several siblings, but none were present, because they didn't know she was still alive. Neither did Braelynn's sisters (well, considering one of them was the reason everyone thought she was dead, it was no wonder.). Not even Susan or Andy were there, but that was mostly due to school. They couldn't leave long enough to attend. They knew what was going on though. It would just be her, Zander, and Carson's family.

Baylee, of course, was the 'flower girl'. Watching the little girl scatter about flowers and other unusual plants, she cringed a little. They'd gotten to Brazil a few days before, with Braelynn in her animal form. She basically wasn't allowed outside unless she was transfigured into a fox. Baylee, of course, hadn't realized that the adorable fox with Zander was in fact Braelynn and just about strangled her in a suffocating hug, and proceeded to chase her around for hours until someone managed to get Baylee to calm down enough for Braelynn to transfigure back. Now the little girl was constantly looking for Zander's 'pet fox', wanting to play with it. But, it'd been worth it. Because it meant this was really happening.

Then, it was her turn. She took a deep breath, to calm her nerves. But as she took a step out of the trees, she realized that her nerves were already calm. The moment her gaze met Zander's they'd just melted away. Lelia had let the girl borrow one of her dresses, the closest to white they could find. It was ivory, form fitting at the top and flowing out at the waist to her knees. And of course Baylee had put together a small bouquet for her. It was simple, much like Zander's own attire, but Bay didn't care. If anything she liked the simplicity of it all. She didn't look away from Zander as she made her way to them, as if unable to look away. And the closer she got, the bigger her smile became.

I’ll never stop trying
I’ll never stop watching as you leave
I’ll never stop losing my breath
Every time I see you looking back at me

Zander wasn't sure if he was happy about the lyrics flowing into his brain or if he was annoyed that they were interrupting the moment... but really, nothing could interrupt the sight of Lynn walking toward him. Her smile, her simple dress, that bouquet... it was all completely flawless to him. His eyes were glued to hers and he decided not to be annoyed at the lyrics and music burning his ears. They were a part of his inner though process, always had been, and if he ever got around to writing this one down then he would always think of this moment. Every time he saw that ring on her finger, that smile, those eyes... every time he'd look at her he'd think of this day. These minutes, and what they meant for the rest of his life.

I’ll never stop holding your hand
I’ll never stop opening your door
I’ll never stop choosing you babe

Of course things would be hard, no doubt. If you thought about this logically it was a completely crazy thing to do but... Zander had never been a logical thinker. Zander followed his feelings and not only had his heart led him here but his mind too. he had really thought this through after his parents death. There was nothign in the universe he loved so much as Braelynn Rosseau and after today there'd be nothing he loved as much Braelynn Lloyd. That very thought sent his mind reeling for a moment but he was brought back when she arrived in front of him, standing across from him with that grin on her lips. His own smile had grown the closer she got too until the both were addressed by Carson and turned to look at him.

You’re always hoping that we make it
You always want to keep my gaze
Well you’re the only one I see
And that’s the one thing that won’t change

The ceremony was short, sweet and traditional. When it was over, Zander was invited to 'kiss the bride' and he took that invitation wholeheartedly, proceeding to dip Braelynn rather dramatically.

He lifted her after a few moments and pressed his forehead against hers. One hand was on her back and the other was at the base of her neck. He closed his eyes, breathed in, and finally opened his eyes to look into hers, his smile soft, "I love you, Lynn Lloyd."
