Chelsea's pov

It was a busy morning doing all the last-minute errands for Renee's wedding. I had so much on my mind after last night. The voice of the man at the bar who acted like I was a prostitutes face was covered but that voice was one that haunted my nightmares. Maybe if I could fool him he'd just leave. But for right now I was focused on the wedding.

The reception was to be at the Brass bar after the wedding at the church, so It was going to be a busy day luckily Maya was gonna do the waitressing since me and Kathy were in the wedding party.I hadn't run into Vaughn all day, which made today a little easier because I didn't have to think before I said everything. But he'd still be on the island a few more days, so there's plenty of time for me to mess up. I was staring in the mirror in my elven dress, as Julius did my hair and he chose make up to do the mask on me and Kathy.I'd grown my hair a lot longer since coming here when I dyed it so it would be more believed that me and Kathy were related, and Julius had done it in these cute spirally curls that face and had put a lot of glitter in it. The mask was painted on in greens and pinks and of course more glitter.

 I had on the soft deerskin boots, and there were flowers in my hair.Renée had elected to have me and Kathy's bouquets made of pink tulips and blue mist flowers. Renée had on a wedding gown similar to the one Giselle wore in the beginning of the movie enchanted with sparkling butterflies on it and a sparkly tiara.

Before I knew it the music started and it was time to head up front. First Chloë and Paolo, went up as flower girl and ring bearer, then it was my turn and I was escorted to the front my friend Luke. I could feel Vaughn watching me as we went to the front and parted to go to our respective sides, before it was Kathy's turn. I looked out and found Vaughn, and when our eyes met for a moment I recognized the confusion in his gaze, followed by what looked like a hint of recognition.

 Kathy and Owen came up the aisle next as Owen looked to his wife Angela and gave her a knowing wink, which brought a pink blush to her face.Ever since I've known Angela she's been with Owen, and you can tell they're still madly in love. I hoped I'd be that way some day with someone and my eyes went back to Vaughn. The cowboy that occupied all my thoughts, and every single good dream I have.

I wondered what it would be like to be able to settle down and plant roots, to be happily married and wake up to that one person meant for you.The wedding march music broke me from my thoughts as visions of mini-Vaughn's had begun to dance in my head and I watched my friend Renée be led down the aisle by her father Cain. I then had to work to focus on the words while my mind kept drifting, to the cowboy. He used to tell me I was distracting him, but I wasn't half as distracting as he was at this moment.

Vaughn's P.O.V.

I sat in the pues between my aunt and my cousin as the music began to play and the groomsmen began to escort the blonds down the aisle. I watched as the blue haired guy Luke winked as he lead Mérida down the aisle. She looked amazing dressed up as and elf.She had on this top and skirt that looked like they could be made of buck skin and her skirt stopped just at the bottom of what looked like a heart tattoo. She had her makeup done as a mask and this was the first time I saw her eyes. They were just like Chelsea's.

Blue like the sea, I studied her a few minutes longer and when her eyes met mine they took my breath away, there was a look of longing there, and a hint of sadness.I tried to pay attention to the wedding as I watched her when I reached into my pocket and pulled out a photo and looked at it and her I realized meeting her gaze that MéridaIs my Chelsea. I hoped the wedding would end soon, because I had a sudden need to talk to her.

 I watched as my cousin took her vows, and before I knew it we were outside for the beginning of photos as her escort held her arm.I watched as she smiled for the photos and felt a tug.

"Come on cuz, they'll be here awhile we should head to the Bar.", said my cousin Julia. As I followed as other wedding guests made there way to the Brass Bar. When we went in we found our table, got our drinks and sat down. I looked around studying the place in a new light realizing that this is where Chelsea's been all this time.

I should have realized it after reading her letters, her friends names and people I'd met since I've been here all matched up. And I have to admit she does look good as a blond. After a few moments I hear the Carrie Underwood song, Ever After play as the wedding party comes in.A guy with platinum blonde hair began to announce them as they came in.

"I give you the groomsman awesome Luke with bridesmaid Mérida." he announced as the first couple came in and Luke and Chelsea entered and went to their seats at the head table.

 "I give you the best man Owen, escorting the made of honor Kathy." he said as they entered.

"And now I give you your bride and groom for this evening Renée and Toby.", he announced to cheering and applause as Luke and Chelsea moved there hands signaling for everyone to get more excited.Eventually my cousin and new cousin-in-law finally sat down at the head table, and dinner began to be served. I watched as Luke gave Chelsea a wink, which inwardly made me feel jealous, before they began tapping on the glass at the same time making Renée and Toby blush as they had to lock lips again. The members of the wedding party did this a bit and every time Renée and Toby would blush before they kissed.Eventually the blond called for all the single women to come catch the bouquet. I watched as my cousin threw it behind her as many single girls grabbed for it. When the dust settled it was Chelsea that had it and I could feel the blush creep up. Then it was time for the garter. Elliott ran to the front as my cousin Julia returned and began to encourage her future husband.

"Hey wait the cowboy's not up there yet.", I heard a yell and looked to Angela as she had an amused giggle on her face. I gave her a glare but she grabbed my hand and dragged me to the front . I wished I had my hat but Julia stole it. I stood there and before I knew it the piece of stretchy lace landed in my hand.

"Wow, good luck man.", said Luke with a grin. I was about to head back when Luke and Owen grabbed me.

"No man you forgot something.", they said as they brought me to a seated blushing Chelsea.

"You got to put it on her and pull it back off." said Luke.

"And then she gets to do it to you." followed the miner. I could feel my self blushing furiously as I slid the garter up Chelsea's thigh, and it got hotter when I got a better look at that tattoo when I got the garter halfway up her thigh where it goes. It was then time to remove it and I moved it slowly as I could feel the heat in the room.After a few moments Chelsea took the garter still a little red as the two gentlemen sat me down.

 I was frozen as I looked at my Chelsea with a bit of mischief in her eyes as she slid the garter up my leg, and then I blushed worse when she removed it, because she pulled it off with her teeth. When done she handed it too me before she was grabbed by Kathy and led off for the obligatory dances. I went back to the table blushing furiously.

"Wow she's forward.", said Elliott, "I'm glad I didn't ca-ca-ca-atch it now.", my cousin just giggled at the idea.

"I haven't seen you this red since you woke up and found out you'd slept on a couch with Chelsea. ", she said with a giggle.I watched and felt a little jealous as Chelsea danced with the blue haired carpenter. Eventually the fast music started and Chelsea was off dancing with a group.

"Finally", I hear as the brunette farmer gets up. "I've been waiting to get my hands on a certain miner all day.", she says with a wink and Angela heads off to the dance floor, where her husband happily joins her as another slow song starts.I look around and notice Chelsea's at the bar chatting with Haden and the cook behind the counter. I get up and walk up to her and tap her back as Haden hands her a shot glass.

"Hey cowboy, what's up?", she says downing the liquid.

"Why aren't you dancing too.", I ask her.

"Couples dance.", she says as Haden hands her another shot. "I'm the last single chick on this island." as she also shoots this one.As the blue hair and the belly dancer come up to the bar.

"Hey girl when's the next tat party?", he says. "Don't know Luke, but what you gonna ink.", she says as he orders a drink for him and his date.

"Well I got a dragon, and Selena's name so I'm thinking maybe a banana.", I watch as an amused look enters Chelsea's eyes.

"You better think a little harder Luke and then you'd better catch your date.", she says pointing to where blue hairs date has returned to the dance floor.He runs after her.

"So were you gonna ask me?", she asks looking at me again.

"Ask what? You mean if you wanna dance?", I ask as that twinkle enters her eyes.

"Well since you asked so nice I accept.", she says grabbing my hand and dragging me to the dance floor. We begin to slow dance and I look into Chelsea's blue eyes.

"I need to talk to you privately, can you spare a moment?", I ask as I see a flash in her eyes.

 "Ya we can talk, but can it wait until after the animal festival tomorrow?", she asks. "Tonight really isn't a good time to discuss the topic I think you wanna speak about." as her eyes turn and I follow them to where Calvin and Jin are seated.I nod in understanding,

"alright I'll wait until then." I agree and I can see a smile come to her face.

 "Good then you can see me and Flynn win.", she smiles. I can't help noticing how right she feels back here in my arms. After the slow dance there are a bunch of fast ones and I return to my table where Owen is now seated with Angela's small feet on his lap.I watch as my cousin continues to dance with her new husband and I'm slightly jealous of the newly weds. Chelsea comes over to us.

"Hey Owen, your needed at the bar, something about you, Toby and Luke needing to do a line of shooters.", she said with a smile. "Ok, I'll be right back Angel.", he says as his wife removes her legs from his lap as he runs off.

Chelsea's P.O.V.

"So Angela have you told Owen.", I ask as she blushes.

"Well I figure after I win the race and Owen's nursing his ego that his widdle wifey beat him again I'd tell him", Angela says with a twinkle in her eye as I hand her a coke and we both giggle.

 "Are you ok to race tomorrow in your condition.", I ask curious.

"I already talked to Jin, its to early on to hurt the baby, so I'll be fine to beat your but too.", she says with a grin. "You know I wish this thing had a little Captain's in it."she says.

 "Well its not my fault you went and got yourself knocked up by your hubby.", I say as we both giggle.

"I know but he'll be thrilled we've been ready for a while.", she says as her husband returns grabbing her hand an dragging her to the dance floor.I look over at Vaughn, my handsome cowboy, and my heart skips a beat. I love him so much, it hurts. I look back at the dance floor at Angela and Owen and wonder what it would be like to carry my own child, what it would look like. But with Laval, the chances for me to have my own happily ever after were about as likely as me getting my own fairy godmother and being whisked off.

Eventually I was startled from my reverie by another tap on the shoulder. And looked up to a cowboy offering me his hand. I gave it to him as he led me out to dance again. And I stared into his eyes, wondering what I was doing, I think a man out to harm me may be on the island and instead I'm daydreaming at my friend's wedding about marrying her cousin.I could feel a little blush creep up.

 Renée and Toby were spending tonight in the inn so they could be alone, then after the animal festival would be the honeymoon on toucan island.Then my mind thought about a honeymoon or wedding night with Vaughn and my face felt really red. Thankfully Vaughn didn't say anything.I looked up at him as he took a hand and pulled a stray hair out of my face and pushed it behind my ear.

"Um your hair is really pretty tonight.", he said as he looked in my eyes while running his fingers through my hair. It almost seemed like a dream being here with my Vaughn, when our eyes met my heart skipped beats as the smoldering passion in them would make anyone blush.I just knew as long as I was here with Vaughn I didn't want this night to end.

"I wish thisDidn't have to end.", I said looking into his eyes wanting to feel those lips brush mine again. It had been over a year since I'd been with him like this.

 He pulled me into his arms farther wordlessly as we swayed to the music together. He touched his forehead to mine a moment before taking my hand and leading me outside and then towards the beach.

"I don't know how blind these guys are in this town to leave you single.", he finally said when we were in front of the water as he cupped my face in hand as he leaned in while he kept another arm secured around my waist keeping me close as his lips touched mine with a passion that made me forget all my other thoughts and fears because in this moment, all that mattered was this. We kissed a few more times as we walked along the beach the warm water splashing my now bare feet having left my boots in the bar, when the dancing began.We eventually went back in, me leading Vaughn in through a side door, near the bathrooms so no one noticed us come back in before returning to the dance floor.

He stayed nearby the rest of the night until it was time for guests to leave. And I waited by the exit seeing everyone out.

 "See you at the festival Vaughn.", I say winking as he's the last to leave before heading to my room. I fall onto my bed and doze off.  At first I'm running for my life from Laval, I can see his yellow eyes as he grabs me and slams me against a brick wall with one hand around my neck.

"This is it for you whore!", he says with that look he always gave before he would torture me for resisting.When he raises his free hand and I expect the fist to connect with my face it stops and a hand is holding it. While a second fist comes across and connects with Laval's face forcing him to drop me, as he struggles with my rescuer, who is shrouded in all fight for awhile, my rescuer only letting out a grunt or growl. Eventually Laval falls and doesn't get up. And my rescuer comes to me.

"It's ok baby. I'm here, he can't hurt you anymore.", he says stroking my hair and I look up, and meet a pair of beautiful violet eyes. He picks me up bridal style to kiss me, and carries me off
