Two Weddings in a Week




Ally was in her bedroom talking with Renee. They were eating ice cream and speculating about Ally’s wedding with Glenn.

“Oh my godness…I’m getting married tomorrow…this is unbelievable…”Ally said.

“Yeah and you’re getting married with someone who you aren’t in love with…” Renee interposed but Ally yelled something about total falling in love and so on… but she knew, Renee was right. She has loved Larry since the day she met him although he left her with a stupid note. And Glenn couldn’t substitute him. But now it was too late to take a step back and call off the wedding. Ally knew it. All her friends knew about the ceremony, they were longing for it and hoping that Ally wasn’t going to be so goofy anymore, when she will marry someone. Ally invited everyone she fraternized with… even Coretta was supposed to come…


*     *     *


Next day Ally woke up early … she had to prepare but there was plenty of time still… she looked out of the window and watched the raindrops falling down. She remembered Larry and suddenly her eyes were filling with tears… she missed him so much… She was thinking of their love, of his tenderness, of his eyes, his smile, his……

KNOCK KNOCK… Ally turned her head and saw her mom.

“Hey sweetie,” she said.

“Hey mommy…what are you doing here so early?” Ally asked.

“Well, today is your BIG day… you have to be beautiful and we have only four hours to make you gorgeous.”

Ally was smiling… then she nodded and went to the mirror to see what the night made with her hair…


*     *     *


After those four hours everything was ready for the ceremony but Ally was still in her bedroom and she was a little bit upset… she knew, Glenn was a really good guy and she realized she’d have a happy life with him, but…

“Honey, your limo is waiting outside for you…hurry up…!!!!” Renee yelled and took Ally’s hand to get her out of their apartment.

They got in the limo and Renee smiled at Ally…

“So, our bride-to-be, how are you feeling?”

“A little dizzy, I guess,” Ally answered and looked at her wedding gown… it was really wonderful. She always had been dreaming of wedding gown like this one.

They were near the church and the sun was shining now… seems to be a nice day.


*     *     *


The limo parked near the church, Renee ran to the church and the chauffeur turned to Ally…

“Well Miss, here we are…you ready to go yet?”

“I don’t think so…please, can you leave me here for a few minutes?”

“Sure, I’ll wait up for you next to the door of the church…” he said and got off the car.

Ally was sitting there thinking… WHY AM I HERE?…… I SHOULD GO THERE AND IT WILL BE SOONER OVER FOR ME…… and Ally was thinking and thinking and she didn’t even notice, someone got on the limo… when she heard the motor she realized there was someone who actually wasn’t supposed to be there… that man was sitting in front and driving somewhere… Ally started to scream and he looked at her… he was wearing the black mask and black clothes… When Ally saw it, she started to scream more loudly and then she said something like “You aren’t gonna get some money from me… I’m only a lawyer, my family is poor, my friends are poor, my… well everyone who knows me is poor…let me go!!!!!!!!!” But that guy just smiled and put his mask off… It was Larry… Ally’s scream was now absolutely unbearable…

“Wow, I did it… I can’t believe it,” he said and looked once more at Ally. He had to admit, she was gorgeous. But Ally wasn’t so happy: “What the hell are you doing here? Did I invite you, did I leave a note for you to come…did I? Yeah and by the way…WHERE ARE WE GOING?”

Larry turned his head and simply said: “To a paradise.”

Ally gasped… but then she recovered and yelled again : “I don’t wanna go there…well, paradise…it probably means a place full of fuckin’ notes from you. No, thanks…”

Larry was a bit sad, but he loved her so much and he knew she loved him as well and she didn’t mean it truly.

After one hour they arrived there…


*     *     *


It was a beautiful place [without notes]… there was a big garden with trees and flowers, and with a rill. They went along the path to a beautiful house… Ally was amazed but still mad at Larry… she was worried about Glenn and other people waiting for her in the church… [well, they weren’t there probably anymore]. They entered there and Ally gasped again… she didn’t talk a lot and Larry became worried… WHAT IF SHE DOESN’T LOVE ME?… MAYBE SHE REALLY LOVES HIM… MAYBE I SHOULD……

“Larry?” Ally said interrupting his thoughts.

“Yeah?”

“Can I ask you a question?”

“Sure,” he answered…feeling happy that she talks again… “WHAT THE HELL WILL WE DO HERE???” she yelled at him.

“Well, everything we want to do… we can swim in the rill…” he responded.

“Funny… by the way I have no swimsuit.”

“It doesn’t matter for me…” he said calmly.

Ally punched him and then asked again: “How did you know about my wedding?”

“Hmm, I’m still in touch with Coretta and she told me… I couldn’t let you marry that guy because I love you too much…” he moved towards her to touch her but she didn’t let him to do it.

“Well, you should realize it before writing that note. Now it’s too late.” She seemed to be crying and Larry felt miserable to make her feel this way.

“I’m sorry baby…I..” he didn’t finish because Ally asked him other question: “Why?”

“Excuse me?” he responded.

“Why did you leave me?”

“I…huh…I think, I was worried.”

“What about?” she said.

“I don’t know, I was worried, our marriage would fragment, I didn’t want to destroy your life…” he answered.

“You did it when you left…”

“Now I know it, honey,” he said softly and touched her cheek. “Can you please forgive me? I will do anything for you and I want to spend the rest of my life with you… Ally McBeal, will you marry me?”

“Oh, this is really nice… you left, I was sad, angry, at first I wanted to die, then I wanted you to die and after some time you take me to this “paradise” and you think I will marry you because you decided to come back?!”she yelled again.

Larry looked really unhappy, he started crying a bit and now he was sure Ally hated him.

“Well, so you’re right,” she continued.

He looked at her and didn’t know what to think or say… Ally smiled at him and this was everything he needed to see. He touched her cheeks once again and kissed her softly… then he realized, he forgot something so he reached into his pocket and took out a beautiful velvet box. "Will you marry me Ms. McBeal?" he asked once more.

Ally nodded and they kissed again…

"Well, there is a cute bedroom upstairs, with a cute bed and cute candles and so on… Do you wanna…" he said.

"So that’s why you took me here…you scamp!!!" she smiled and they went there.

There was really cute bed, candles, flowers and food as well. Ally was hungry so she ate up almost everything. Then she went to the bed… Larry looked at her and was amazed… she was really the most beautiful woman in his life… he took off her wedding gown and they made love… after two days they decided to come back and at the weekend they had a beautiful wedding…



The End
