Blaine paced his dressing room nervously as Nick pep talked him. It's been like this for the past fifteen minutes. It wasn't that Blaine was nervous to get married, he was full on ready for this, he was just feeling weird, and lost.

“Are you sure you're okay man?” Nick wondered in the middle of his speech, tilting his head to the side as he watched Blaine curiously. He knew his friend hadn't been listening to him.

With a sigh Blaine nodded for the millionth time. “I'm fine. I'm just... I have a lot on my mind.” He admitted quietly, standing still and crossing his arms over his chest. “I'm excited and nervous and there is just so much going on.”

Nick smirked and stood, placing a firm hand on Blaine's shoulder. “Dude listen... It's your wedding day. You shouldn't be sad, or nervous, you should be happy!” He gave his friend's shoulder a gentle squeeze, making Blaine glance over.

“You're right.” Blaine mumbled, smiling weakly, not feeling completely okay, but better than five minutes ago.

“Talk to him. You're best friends. I'm not Sebastian and I know that.”

Blaine sighed, biting his lip as he gave Nick a tight hug, patting his back. “I'm gonna go wait in the hall with Finn and the rest of the gang.” Nick gave his friend a nod before he walked out, shutting the door behind him gently.


Sebastian looked down at his phone, eyes widening. His heart started to race as he picked up, taking a deep breath, mouth spreading into a large smile. “Happy wedding day!” Sebastian answered with a fake, happy voice.

“Thanks man... How are you?” Blaine asked nervously, looking down at the carpeted floor of the dressing room, rubbing the toe of his shoe in it.

With a roll of his eyes Sebastian shook his head. “Oh you know, the usual.” He stated sarcastically, clearing his throat. “Lost my best friend, made the biggest mistake of my life and sitting here while he talks about how amazing his new best man is...” Sebastian trailed off with a sigh. “How perfect his fian- I mean husband is and how he's so happy I'm not there to home wreck everything...” He continued, biting his lip. “So I'm just peachy Blaine, just fucking peachy, and you?”

Blaine closed his eyes, he felt like a horrible person. “Feeling nervous without my best friend here...” He said honestly, taking a deep breath. “Sebastian I need one of your tough love talks. We both made a mistake and I can't hold it against you forever... So… Be my best man again?” Blaine asked hoping it wasn't too late.

“You really want me to be your best man?” Sebastian wondered, sounding incredibly surprised.

“Of course bro. We've been friends since high school. We lived together for five years and hell, you're the one that set me up with Kurt in the first place... You deserve to be here next to me.”

Sebastian smiled widely, the phone still held to his ear. “I'd be honored to be your best man again. I still have the tux ready.” He told his friend, giggling as he got up from his couch and ran to the bedroom to get ready. “So what is it that you need my 'tough love' chats for?”

Blaine rolled his eyes fondly. “Just get your ass dressed and down here, you can lecture me when I see you.”

“If you're thinking about leaving I will duck tape your feet to the altar.” Sebastian threatened, putting his phone on speaker so he could multitask.

“No, of course not.” Blaine confirmed, standing from his seat, pacing again. “The last thing on my mind is leaving.”

Sebastian smirked, buttoning up his shirt at lightning speed. “Then I'll be on my way.”


Sebastian entered the dressing room, thankful that Nick was the person he ran into outside. “So what is it?” He asked, shutting the door behind him. “Lost one of your socks, wrong hair gel? Man, I told you, Kurt likes you without the gel.”

Blaine chuckled, shaking his head as he took a seat, looking up at his friend. “No it’s not that.. I'm just.. I'm so fucking scared.” He admitted, rubbing his face.

“Blaine, this isn't a horror movie, you're marrying Kurt in a couple of hours! What the hell is there to be scared of?”

“Like. I know we're going to work out, we love each other, it’s clear, but what if my job becomes too much for him, what if I screw up at being a dad and a husband and I'm not the perfect person he thought I was?” Blaine vented, standing up again, ready to pace. “What if he leaves me later because he just can't do this anymore?” He added, gesturing to himself dramatically, standing there helplessly.

Sebastian stepped up to Blaine, smacking him on his head. “What the hell is the matter with you?”

“Dude, my hair!” Blaine ran to the closest mirror, smoothing it out.

“Screw your hair, you need some sense knocked into you.” Sebastian said gently punching his friend's arm, receiving yet another glare. “I've known you practically my whole life Blaine. I've seen your heart get broken on more than one occasion.”

Blaine huffed. “Thanks for the reminder... Is there a point to this speech you have?”

“I'm getting to it.” Sebastian waved a dismissive hand, clearing his throat. “With all those guys I knew from the second day they weren't going to work out and I've seen you throw yourself into your work because you couldn't take it.” He explained, taking a seat on one of the chairs. “You want to know why I got involved in putting you and Kurt together? Because as each day went by Blaine I knew you were dying.” He mumbled, smiling sadly. “You weren't yourself, and for a long time I thought I was going to be enough, but that wasn't the case.” Sebastian admitted, sighing heavily. “When Kurt came into your life, the light you had came back.”

Blaine smiled softly, looking down at the ground shyly.

“And whether or not you want to believe it, the same goes for Kurt. You know he loves you, you wouldn't be standing here in a tuxedo if he didn't.” Sebastian went on, adjusting his own suit with a proud smile. “I'm not saying it’s going to be easy, in fact it’s going to be a long, bumpy road, because you're stubborn as hell and so is he, which makes for some intense fights.”

With a nod of agreement Blaine couldn't help but chuckle.

Sebastian sighed, giving his friend a warm half smile. “But you two will work it out and have hot make up sex.” He assured with a wicked grin.

Blaine covered his face releasing a heavy sigh. “Only you Sebastian could end a lecture with hot make up sex.”

“Well it’s the truth.” Sebastian argued, waving a hand dismissively. “Look, I know how scared you are, but what you and Kurt have is one in a million. People search their whole life trying to get close to what you two have. Don't forget that.” He told Blaine sternly, lightly punching his shoulder.

“We are something special, aren't we?”

Sebastian nodded slowly. “And so damn adorable I want to put you on my mantel.” He chuckled and shook his head. “So you okay man?

Blaine looked up and gave a small nod, taking Sebastian into a tight hug. “I'm so sorry for what happened man.”

“If anyone should be sorry, it’s me. I'm the one who fucked up.”

“Yeah.. You did, but I let it drag on. It was childish and stupid and you can seriously never not be my best friend. We've been friends for too long to let it go now.” Blaine admitted, giving Sebastian's arm a gentle pat.

Sebastian grinned tapping Blaine's cheek. “So I still get to be uncle Sebastian to Kurt Jr. and Blainella Jr?”

Blaine chuckled. “Yeah sure, whatever helps you sleep at night.” He mumbled, rolling his eyes. “You are totally not naming our kids.”

“So, you ready to get married?” Sebastian asked, giving Blaine's shoulder a squeeze.

Blaine nodded confidently. “Ready. Born ready.”

Sebastian took a deep breath. “Then let’s get you married bro!” He yelled, jumping up and down, nudging his friend to join along.

Blaine hollered in excitement, jumping along with Sebastian to pump himself up.

“You wanna get married?”

“I wanna get married!” Blaine shouted. “I'm getting married!”

“You gonna make Kurt happy?” Sebastian asked loudly, pushing Blaine a little bit, riling him up more.

Blaine nodded his head firmly. “Hell yeah I am!”

“You gonna make Kurt your husband?”

“Fuck yeah!”

Sebastian stopped jumping and placed both hands on Blaine's shoulders. “Ready to start your life with him?” He yelled, feeling like a football coach yelling at his player.

Blaine nodded enthusiastically.

“I said are you ready to start your life with him?!” Sebastian yelled, he needed to know Blaine was pumped and had no more nerves.

“Fuck yes I am!” Blaine confirmed, chest bumping with Sebastian, the two of them laughing tiredly, catching their breaths. “Thank you.. For being here, for just.. Coming when I needed you.” He muttered meaningfully, eyes shining with tears as he smiled widely, biting his lip.

Sebastian glanced up and smirked. “What are best friends for?” He gave a shrug and placed a hand on his friends back. “Now let's go, we need to get to the venue soon.”

Blaine placed an arm around his friend's shoulder as they made their way to the door, a big goofy smile on his face. “Dude, I'm getting married in like an hour.”

“Who would of thought.”

“Sure as hell not me.” Blaine mumbled, snorting.

Sebastian sighed, rolling his eyes. “Well, not to get all mushy, but do you want to know when I knew you two were going to get married?”

Blaine looked to Sebastian with a wide smile.

“When you came back from the diner.”

Blaine's eye brows pulled together, thinking. “Wait what dinner? We've had a lot of dinners.”

Sebastian frowned, shaking his head. “No, the diner.” He stated, waiting for it to sink in.

“You're lying. You're just saying that.” Blaine insisted. How is it possible that Sebastian knew they were going to get married after their blind date? “There is no way you knew then.”

“God as my witness.” Sebastian claimed, placing his hands together with a grin.

Blaine huffed. “How?”

“Remember when I said you weren't yourself, before Kurt?” Sebastian asked, hoping Blaine actually listened to his lecture earlier.

Blaine rolled his eyes. “You've said that a lot Sebastian.”

“Well, the day you met Kurt, I saw you again.” Sebastian explained. “Your eyes man, they were all big and shiny and you finally had a real smile on your face and up until that point I never saw you that happy.” He added, watching as it all sunk in on Blaine's face. “Maybe I didn't know you two would be tying the knot a year or so later, but I knew this guy was going to be in your life for a long time, and secretly, I wanted you to marry him.”

A warm smile spread across Blaine's face, a memory coming to mind. “I knew when he came over that one night, when I came home from work late. It was like a week or so after the diner thing.” He began, biting his lip shyly. “He came over just to comfort me. He knew I had a rough night at work and he lied in bed with me, massaging me, making sure I was okay.” Blaine recounted, sighing happily. “That's when I knew he was important.”

Sebastian looked down, smiling widely. “Do you think... Nah.. Never mind.”

Blaine nudged his friend, the two of them looking at one another. “Think what?”

“I mean, I know I'm never going to have what you and Kurt have, but I don't know, do you think I might have it one day?” Sebastian wondered quietly, the two of them stepping outside. “I screwed up once.”

“Of course you will Sebastian... Don't sell yourself short.” Blaine assured, sounding absolutely positive. “You're a great guy and honestly there is someone out there for you. I actually think he's sitting in one of the seats today.” He hinted, giving his friend a wink. “You should talk to him.”

Sebastian rolled his eyes fondly. That was just like Blaine, the picker upper. “You really think he wants me after... You know, everything.”

“I think if you talk to him and let him know that you know you made a mistake and that you love him. He'll give you another chance.” Blaine said giving him a pat on the shoulder as they got to the limo. “Liam isn't the kind of person to just cut you off. You were together for four years.. That's not something you let go that easily.”

“You're right, but this isn't my day, it’s yours.” Sebastian smiled widely, punching Blaine's shoulder gently. “Now come on, there's a handsome guy waiting for you right now, just dying to marry you.”

Blaine fixed his tux, taking a deep breath. “Holy shit it’s time.”

“Ready for this man? No regrets?”

“No regrets.” Blaine mumbled. “I'm ready. I love him.” He smoothed out his hair and got into the car, Sebastian closing the door for him. “He's gonna be mine. An Anderson.”

Kurt was nervous to the say the least. It wasn't that there were doubts, because there wasn't a doubt in his mind that he wanted to marry Blaine, it was just the nerves that meant this was real and his mind kept racing with every possible thing that could go wrong.

“Come on kid, everyone's out there waiting.” Burt said through the door, knocking lightly as he opened it. “You okay?”

Kurt stood with a sigh, looking down to make sure his tux was in pristine condition. “I'm alright. Is he out there?”

Burt nodded with a small smile. “He is. He looks just as nervous as you do, but I'm sure when you walk out he'll be grinning from ear to ear.” He told his son, holding his shoulder with a firm hand. “

“Okay. Let's go.” Kurt whispered, letting out a shaky breath as he stepped out the door, looping his arm through dad's.

As Kurt was guided down the aisle by his father it seemed like time was slowed, but he didn't notice all the smiling faces looking at him, all he saw was Blaine, who was patiently waiting for his husband to be.

Before he even knew it, Kurt was being asked to recite his vows, time must have sped up immensely, he didn't really know, he was way too overjoyed to notice anything besides Blaine and his mega watt, teary eyed, smile.

“We met by accident. A very well planned accident.” Kurt began, glancing past Blaine to give Sebastian a warm smile and wink. “It wasn't perfect in the beginning. We did things different than I usually do, but something about you made me not care about all that.” He took a deep breath, not wanting to cry just yet. “It was around Finn and Rachel's wedding when I realized I was in love with you, when we danced until no one was left and discussed out dream future. That's when I knew you were in this for the long haul.”

There were awes dispersed throughout the room and Kurt chuckled, tightening his grip on Blaine's hands as he sniffled. “All the fights and problems we went through were hard, I'll admit it, but I wouldn't change a thing about the time we had Bee. I promise to always love you, even when you come home late from work and I can't wait to build our dream future together.”

Blaine blinked a few times, him and Kurt giggling at how they were acting. Hands clammy, eyes teary and smiles so big their cheeks were aching. Blaine never would have thought he'd see himself at an altar a little over a year ago, but now he couldn't be happier. He wouldn't change this for the world.

“I didn't know it at first.. Or maybe I did, but Kurt, meeting you was the best thing that could have ever happened to me.” Blaine started, pursing his lips before going on. “Before we met, I worked too much, wasn't in a relationship for longer than a few weeks and I honestly wasn't happy. But you.. You changed all that for me Kurt.” His voice cracked slightly, his mind trying not to go back to the dark place of life before Kurt, how shut down he was. “You showed me what it was like to love and feel loved. I would do anything and everything for you because when you smile, you make me feel complete, you show me why I'm still here alive and kicking.” Everyone laughed quietly, making Blaine chuckle, squeezing Kurt's hands. “I can't even begin to tell you how glad I am that I let you in, that I didn't let fear get the best of me. I love you more than I can even express Kurt and I promise to be there for all the precious moments. I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you, making all your dreams come true.”

After the officiant went on with saying things that Kurt and Blaine barely listened to and repeated unconsciously, it was time. “Kurt, do you take Blaine Anderson to be your husband in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health, to love and to honor all the days of your life?”

Kurt nodded enthusiastically, the tears making their way down his face slowly. “I do, I really, really do.”

“And Blaine, do you take Kurt Hummel to be your husband in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health, to love and to honor all the days of your life?”

Blaine smiled widely, nodding like Kurt had. “I most certainly do.”

“I now pronounce you husband and husband... You may now kiss your groom.”

Kurt squealed and surged forward, Blaine meeting him halfway and catching him in his arms, their lips pressing together in no time at all.

The reception was busy. Almost everyone was dancing and if they weren't then they were standing around chatting while holding plates of food. It was more than Kurt could ever dream. It was all going so perfectly.

“You're growing up kid.” Burt said loudly, standing shoulder to shoulder with his son, staring out to the dance floor. “Do you feel any different?”

Kurt nodded with a wide smile, glancing over at his dad. “I feel married.” He answered, giggling cutely as he looked down at the floor, his cheeks heating up. “I don't think I have ever felt this happy.” Kurt crossed his arms over his chest, spotting Blaine dancing with one of his little cousins.

Burt noticed his son's voice trailing slightly, his eyes following his current line of site. “Well isn't that cute?”

“It's adorable.” Kurt mumbled, tilting his head to the side as he watched Blaine twirl the little girl, his smile bright. “He's going to be a great daddy.”

That definitely caught Burt off guard, making him change his stance, staring at Kurt. “Have you guys talked about kids?”

Kurt felt his dad's stare on him, making him look over. “Yeah we have. He wants kids too.” He confirmed, noticing the worry on his dad's face.

“How soon are you thinking about kids though, you just got married like an hour or two ago.”

“I don't know dad.. A few months, maybe in year.” Kurt said, his arms falling at his sides. “I'm not thinking about it for tomorrow or anything.” He assured, seeing relief flood Burt's face, making him smile softly. “Dad, you have time, you aren't going to be a grandpa soon and if that changes you'll be the first to know.”

Burt sighed and placed a firm hand on his son's shoulder. “Listen, a piece of advice.” Kurt nodded, all ears. “Live with each other for a little while longer.. Learn one another better before you bring a kid into the picture. You two have a bit of ways to go, especially now that you're married.” Burt told him carefully, watching as Kurt took it all in.

“Okay.. Promise.” Kurt leaned in and hugged his dad, sighing happily. “I love you dad.”

“Love you too buddy.”

They swayed on the dance floor, surrounded by their guests, as their wedding song played softly.

“Are you having fun?” Blaine mumbled, his arms tightening around Kurt's waist, chin rested on his shoulder.

Kurt hummed happily, smiling against Blaine's neck. “I am. Are you?”

“A blast.”

Blaine nuzzled his nose to Kurt's cheek, pressing his lips to his husband's jaw. “I love you so much.” Kurt whispered, giggling.

“I love you too sweetheart, so much.” Blaine chuckled, nudging Kurt up off his shoulder so they can look at one another. He missed seeing the beautiful blue of his husband's eyes. “Soon enough we'll be setting sail, just you and me.”

Kurt nodded leaning forward so his forehead was pressed against Blaine's. “Nothing could be more perfect.”

“Just wait till we start our family, then nothing will be more perfect.”

I enjoyed the wedding..great way to get Seb back in the picture.

Chapter 8 was definitely worth the wait. I was really happy to see Blaine and Sebastian fix their friendship because for one thing you actually make me like Sebastian and the second being that he was the one that helped to bring Kurt into Blaine's life so it only made sense for him to be at the wedding. I really enjoyed see Sebastian getting Blaine pumped up for the wedding while Burt had to do something similar for Kurt. Both of their vows were so sweet and I actually found myself saying "aww Blaine is the best" when Blaine was reading his vows. I can't wait to see what happens on the honeymoon and to see what you have planned for their married life. This is definitely one of my favorite stories and I look forward to every update.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review! This was one of the sweetest I have recieved! It's highly appreciated! I'm so glad that you enjoyed how it was written and I love that you like Sebastian! The vows were probably the hardest things for me to write and the fact that you liked them means so much! Thank you for this review from the bottom of my heart! I can't wait to update, 9 is almost done so you'll have it as soon as I can get it out! :)
