Chapitre 122: Chapter 122
Maggie and Alex fix help make sure they don't look like they just made out for ten minutes in the bathroom. Which they did, but they don't want people to be able to tell. After one last peck, they emerge from the bathroom to see that Lena and Kara are waiting outside. Luckily, Lena's distracting Kara so that she couldn't hear the sounds of her sister making out with her wife.
Alex clears her throat, looking away from them because she really doesn't want to see her little sister kissing someone, especially not like that. She hears them pull apart and looks at them again.
She smirks. "You may want to get cleaned up. We may not look like we just spent a while making out, but you two sure do."
Kara sticks out her tongue at her sister and uses her superspeed to make Lena and her presentable. "Now come on, I'm sure everyone's managed to find their seats by now."
Kara and Lena lead Maggie and Alex to the throne room. The guards hold open the doors, soft smiles on their faces as they watch the maids of honor and brides walk inside. Lena and Kara enter first, gesturing for Maggie and Alex to stay where they are for now. They stand by their seats, looking towards the doors.
Maggie and Alex take that as their cue and step inside the throne room. Alex has to admit, it looks wonderful. The tapestries along the walls showing the Kingdom's history have been carefully cleaned and restored for this very occasion. There are flowers on every table, every place set to perfection. It looks like the fairytale wedding reception Alex always imagined as a kid but never dreamed she would actually have.
She squeezes Maggie's hand and gives her a beaming smile as then walk to the table in the center, the one reserved for them, their maids of honor, and their bridesmaids. Everyone has stood for their entrance and sit down only after the brides do.
Maggie places her hand over Alex's, which rests on the table in front of them. They almost don't notice when Eliza speaks. "It's time for the first dance. Band, if you would please."
The band begins playing what Maggie and Alex have considered their song after Alex had drunkenly (tipsily?) sang it to Maggie after one of their earlier dates.
"You're just too good to be true," the singer croons. "Can't take my eyes off of you. You'd be like heaven to touch, I wanna hold you so much. At long last love has arrived, and I thank god I'm alive. You're just too good to be true, can't take my eyes off of you."
Alex feels brave after an emotionally charged day and after making out with her wife (!!!). So she takes a deep breath and steels her nerves, then begins to sing along. Her soft but beautiful voice makes Maggie melt, and she loves how beautifully her voice intwines with the singer, who has lowered his voice so that Alex can be heard better.
"Pardon the way that I stare, there's nothing else to compare. The sight of you leaves me weak, there are no words left to speak. But if you feel like I feel, please let me know that it's real. You're just too good to be true, can't take my eyes off of you."
Alex stares into Maggie's eyes as she sings, just like she had tipsily done so many months ago. Maggie beams at her the same way, her dimples showing. Alex clears her throat as the trumpets sound and prepares herself for the next part. She's never been too good at getting more loud or high pitched, but she's definitely willing to try it again for Maggie. Last time, Alex's voice had cracked but she had continued with flaming cheeks anyway.
"I love you baby, and if it's quite alright I need you baby, to warm the lonely nights! I love you baby, trust in me when I say. Oh pretty baby, don't bring me down, I pray! Oh pretty baby, now that I've found you, stay! And let me love you baby, let me love you!" The singer's voice fades out so it's only Alex singing. "You're just too good to be true, can't take my eyes off of you. You'd be like heaven to touch, I wanna hold you so much. At long last love has arrived, and I thank god I'm alive. You're just too good to be true, can't take my eyes off of you."
Maggie blinks away the happy tears and leans in, kissing her wife again. They barely notice the loud applause as the last notes of the song ring out.
"I love you so much, Alex Danvers."
Alex shakes her head with a soft smile. "It's Danvers-Sawyer now, Maggie Danvers-Sawyer."
Maggie practically melts in Alex's arms and kisses her once more. That's when they register the applause and Alex's face turns pink when she remembers that other people heard her sing. She squeezes Maggie's hand and they sit back at the table.
Kara gives Alex thumbs up with a dorky smile as Winn sniffles, wiping his tears with tissues that were placed at this table pretty much just for him.
"Good job, you have a wonderful singing voice." Lena says with a warm smile.
Alex's flush deepens. "Thanks, Lena."
"I can't believe you sounded that good while you were dancing. You still managed to slow dance with your wife while singing." Lucy shakes her head, looking impressed.
"Maggie was leading," Alex points out. "So it wasn't like I had to focus too much on dancing."
"Plus, we were pretty much just swaying and turning in a circle," Maggie says.
"Still impressive." Lucy shrugs.
"I have to agree with her, babe. It is impressive. Plus, you did much better this time than last time," Maggie teases.
Alex points, a smile playing at her lips. "Hey, I was tipsy last time!"
Next chapter, more of the reception! And the Sanvers song is "Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You" by Frank Sinatra, and it's one of my favorites! It makes my gay heart long for someone to sing this to haha. Thank you all for reading and for your lovely comments! Stay awesome!
