Bab 69: Ch.69
(Matt Pov)
As Emmett makes his kissing noises at me, Jasper walks into the room holding a box of cigars and two liquor bottles.
"If I'm interrupting something I can come back later," Jasper says with a chuckle as he sees what is happening.
"No thank god you're here too, I'd not make it through the night with just Emmett," I say with an annoyed sigh.
"Hey! You love me and you know it!" Emmett says laughing, which Jasper and I just ignore him.
The three of us stand on the balcony outside smoking our cigars and sipping our drinks, just enjoying the company of each other in comfortable silence. Though after a while, I decide to tell them about the war coming, and that they can join if they want to become gods sooner. After explaining the war coming that is much larger than anything seen before, they both remain thoughtful for a bit.
"Matt, you're my brother and I will help you no matter what situation you find yourself in. So count me in!" Emmett says with a smile and pats my shoulder.
"For once I agree with the idiot, I'll stand by you to the end," Jasper says smirking at Emmett and patting my other shoulder.
"HEY! Where was my invite?! Oh, a brotherly hug!" we all hear Thor shout as he practically breaks down the door to the room and sees us on the balcony. Then rushes over pulling us all into a brotherly group hug.
"I don't know what is going on, but count me in!" Thor says during the forced group hug.
"Matt was just telling us a huge war was coming with Chaos," Emmett says with a laugh at Thor's antics.
"A war with Choas itself! That war will be legendary! I cannot wait for the battle!" Thor says with an excited battle lust filled look.
The rest of the night was spent with the four of us smoking cigars and drinking, with Thor's help both Emmett and Jasper passed out drunk a few hours later. Though both Thor and myself did not pass out drunk, as the sun rose in the morning I can hear most of the clan getting up and preparing for the huge festival-like wedding they have set up.
"Thor grab some cold water, it's time to wake up the sleeping beauties," I say as Jasper and Emmett are spooning one another passed out on the bed inside. Smiling Thor goes and gets a bucket filled with ice water, laughing he throws the water onto Jasper and Emmett. Not before I take a few pictures and send them to pretty much everyone we know.
"SHIT WHAT'S HAPPENING!" Emmett says jumping out of bed and stumbling to the ground. Jasper jumped up as well and fell backward onto the ground. Both now groaning as the hangover from a godly drink can still affect vampires.
"FUCK YOU BOTH!" Emmett yells at Thor and me, while we are both laughing at them.
"Ok, funs over, get a shower and dressed. I have a wedding to attend to and then you both can drink your hangover away afterward," I say smirking at them, while they both look sick thinking about drinking again, though Thor is drinking his flask like it's nothing.
"Fucking alcoholic," Emmett says seeing Thor drinking still even after a night of just drinking.
We all got into the shower and dressed for the wedding, making our way to the large field where the clan held my official welcoming party. This is the same place Alice and myself will be married, under the large tree in the center of the field. Arriving there I can see a few people making the final adjustments for the wedding that is happening in the next hour. As the four of us are standing there, the rest of my groomsmen make their way over to us and my grandfather is with them.
"Lucas, we missed you at the bachelor party, your mother that upset with you?" I say with a laugh as Lucas is one of my groomsmen but didn't come to the bachelor party.
"Ha, ha, funny Matt. No, I was running late and then was going to meet you guys down there. But on my way to the club I met my mate," Lucas says and we all look at him shocked, but we all then congratulate him.
"So who is it?" I ask and everyone looks at him curiously, though I can see he is nervous about it.
"Princess Madeleine, the youngest royal princess of Sweden. I ran into her on my way into the club, she was in the area for another club nearby. As we made eye contact it was like, like love at first sight. After that, we hung out the rest of the night and I finally remembered the bachelor party, so my bad," Lucas says embarrassed and nervous about who his mate is.
"Glad you found your mate Lucas, but now your life is gonna be a bit more hectic since you're gonna be dating a princess," Ivar, my grandfather, says with a smile and we all nod agreeing with him. Then after a few more questions and jokes on Lucas's behalf from everyone, I turn to my grandfather.
"So, did you need to me for something? Not that I mind you're here with us, just figured my groomsmen would be the only ones annoying me up to my wedding," I say with a smirk at them, but they all just laugh off my joke.
"Nothing much just wanted to see how my grandson was doing on the day of his wedding. Plus since I will be doing the ceremony, your grandmother wanted me to make sure you remember all your lines," Ivar says with a chuckle, as I roll my eyes.
"Yeah, I remember them. Though what exactly is all this for, it feels bigger than my welcoming ceremony and the whole clan is going to be here. Not that I mind was just surprised at the number of people gonna be here for it," I say to him and see the several hundred close to a thousand chairs for the wedding ceremony.
"You know our clan likes to party, plus as the next clan head, the fact you are the first polar bear in a few generations and marrying a vampire. Well, most of the clan wants to be a part of this," Ivar says with a shrug of his shoulders. Then I see Charlie motion for me to follow him away from the others, nodding my head we walk for a couple of minutes away from everyone else.
"Matt, I'm happy you found Alice. I'm also very proud of the man you became, since you and Bella came back to live with me, my life changed for the better. You both gave me reasons to keep going, as I was reaching a very low point, feeling I had nothing left to live for. Then you both came and turned that around, all I'm saying is I love you son, and happy you found the same happiness you brought to me," Charlie says with a tear drop coming out of his eye, which he wipes away. I never knew Charlie was that depressed before Bella and I came back to live with him, but I guess it makes sense. As he was all alone for years.
"Thanks, dad," I say hugging him and he hugs me back smiling at me for calling him dad.
"Alright let's head back people are showing up and we need to get you married, then you can join the club of married men," Charlie says with a small chuckle, nodding to him, we then make our way back to everyone.
Once we arrived back everyone is coming in for the wedding, I stand in front of the arch placed under the tree, with all my groomsmen behind me. My grandfather stands in the arch since he is doing the wedding ceremony. Once everyone takes their seats, the clan members who played at Eva's wedding are playing for ours too. Alice's bridesmaids also stand across from us where my groomsmen are standing on the opposite side. I see Alice walking down the long path leading to me, she was wearing a very beautiful wedding dress that complimented her figure well. Carlisle was walking her down the path to me and gave her hand to me once they reached me.
After walking over to the arch under the tree, with Alice's arm linked to mine as Ivar tells everyone to sit. The ceremony beings, with the usual proceedings beings the wedding ceremony.
"Matthew Strömberg and Alice Cullen, are you ready to proclaim that foundation of love for one another in the sight of the All-Father and these witnesses?" Ivar states once everyone sits down.
"Yes," Alice and I respond to him.
"Matthew Strömberg, do you take Alice Cullen to be your lawfully wedded wife? Will you honor and cherish her; love, trust, and commit to her, through joy and pain, sickness and health, and whatever life may throw at you both until death do you part?" Ivar asks me turning to me and I can feel my own excitement and nervousness rising.
"I do," I state with a smile looking at Alice with the same level of love she is looking at me with.
"Alice Cullen, do you take Matthew Strömberg to be your lawfully wedded husband? Will you honor and cherish him; love, trust, and commit to him, through joy and pain, sickness and health, and whatever life may throw at you both until death do you part?" Ivar asks her turning to her, I can see the excitement and nervousness in her eyes.
"I do," Alice states with a smile returning the look of absolute love and adoration.
"At this time, Matthew Strömberg and Alice Cullen will exchange rings. The wedding ring is a symbol of binding. A symbol of attachment and of belonging, not of possession, but of partnership," Ivar says as I turn to Emmett who just pretends to have lost the ring for a second, making some people laugh through my eyebrow twitches. He then hands me the ring.
"Matthew Strömberg, please repeat after me, I promise to love you and commit to you my whole life. I promise to be there for you when you need me, to be honest with you, to be faithful to you and you alone, and to walk through the valleys of life together, just as we will stand atop mountains together, too," Ivar says with me repeating after him and then putting the ring on Alice's finger. Ivar then does the same thing for Alice, and she gets her ring for me from Rosalie and places it on my hand.
"Matthew Strömberg and Alice Cullen, having proclaimed your love and commitment to one another in the eyes of these loved ones, and with the power vested in me by the All-Father and Sweden, I am so happy to pronounce you husband and wife! You may kiss the bride!" Ivar states while smiling at us, I pull Alice close to me gently and kiss her passionately as everyone stands up and cheers for us.
"OH YEAH! LET'S PARTY!" Thor and Emmett shout at the same time, with most of my clan members shouting in agreement. The musicians begin to play everyone starts to remove the chairs, as others bring in tables and the food that was prepared for today.
The next hour was people giving toast after toast, drinking, and dancing in the center of the tables that were left clear for a dance area. As Alice and I were slow dancing to one of the calmer songs, she is leaning her head on my chest and hadn't stopped smiling since the ceremony.
"Love you Matt," Alice says lifting her head up and kissing me.
"Love you too, Alice Strömberg," I say after the kiss and she smiles even more.
