Chapter Text

*4 years later*

 

Four years ago, the band sign a record deal, it was the best thing they could’ve done. A lot has changed since then, they have 3 Albums out, and just came back, from their second world tour. Due to college Willie couldn’t come with Alex, so they called every night they could, but it just wasn’t the same. In their time apart, he realized, that he wouldn’t ever want to spend a day without him. “Alex…” Willie ran up to him, hugging his boyfriend, who just came back from the last stop. “How was London?” He gave his exhausted boyfriend a welcome kiss. “Was good, I’m so tired though, because of the jet lag.” He fell down on the couch next to him. “Well good thing we are going out now!” He said, excited and the blonde just sigh, “ughhh, can’t we just stay here and cuddle?” He stretched out his arms, waiting for Willie to take them. “No, i have something planned.” He stood up, pulling him off of the couch. “Come onnnn, I reserved a table at a restaurant.” After some time he finally agreed and they went out to eat. Willie decided, to go on a stroll on the beach again, so they started walking and walking, where he was leading him. Quite some time passed, when there was suddenly lights and a walk of rose petals going up to a kind of way up to a little platform, with white curtains, a table and a chandelier hanging down. As they arrived at the top of the platform, Alex noticed a heart made out of more lights behind it. Willie took his boyfriends hands and guided him into the middle of it. “What is all this?” His tine was surprised, but he was still clueless, what his favorite skater planned. “Here take my hand.” The long haired man said, after starting to play the song, that he used to ask him out. Alex gratefully took them and both started swaying to the song. Almost at the end of it, Willie bowed down and a box appeared in his hand. Alex gasped, as he saw what was about to happen. “Alexander Xavier Mercer, we have been together for over 5 Years now….these have been the best years of my whole life.When you were gone, I realized, that I don’t want to spend any day, without you. So…..Alex, will you marry me?” Both had tears in their eyes, The blonde couldn’t believe it and just starred down, before pulling him up and giving him a long kiss. “Yes, yes, 100% yes!”

Today was the big day. Their friends and family had already gathered at the location and sat down on the seats. Since they decided, that the beach was their place, they wanted to marry there. The arrangements looked amazing, there was a rose arch, full with white flowers, the chais were white and the view onto the beach was just beautiful. Willie was standing next to the minister at the front. When the music started to play, everyone stood up and turned back to see Alex and Mitchell walking down the aisle. When both reached the end, the dad said down, and both were standing hand in hand, in front of the minister now. “Friends, we have come today in the presence of God and these witnesses at the invitation of William Covington and Alexander Xavier Mercer to share the joy of their wedding. This outward celebration we shall see and hear is an expression of inner love and devotion they have in their hearts.” The minister started saying, “Will you, William, take this man to be your husband, to live together, in the holy covenant of marriage? Will you love him, comfort him, honer and keep him, in sickness and in health, and forsaking all others, be faithful to him so long as you both shall live” If so, answer with I will.” He ended his speech for a moment. “I will!” Willie exclaimed, while tears came running out of his eyes. The wedding officiant turned over to Alex asking him the same question, to which he answers with “I will” Also with tears in his eyes and the biggest smile he ever had. “Now its time for the Vows.” He said, standing back, as both  took a piece of paper and opened them. “Dear Willie.” Alex started his vow, “Today, I affirm my love for you and vow to share my life with you in everything. To respect and love you. I have ever known kind, honest and beautiful. I take you to be my husband, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health from this day forward you shall be first in my heart and our souls shall be be together as one.” He had some trouble speaking, since he started crying on the middle of reading. “My beloved Alex….I take you to be my lawfully wedded husband. I take you with all your faults and strengths, as I offer myself to you with all my faults and strengths. Before these witnesses I Pledge to share my life openly with you, to speak the truth to you in love. I promise to show up every day and try. I promise to honor and care for you, to cherish and encourage your own fulfilment as an individual through all the changes of our lives. I choose you as the person with whom I will spend the rest of my life with.” Willies tears didn’t hold back either. He loved him so much, the words he spoke weren’t enough. “Now I beg for the ring bearer, to bring the rings.” That was Luke’s moment, he gave them the rings and sat back down. “Though small the size these rings are large in significance. Made of precious metal, the remind us that love is not cheap, nor common, indeed love is to be cherished. As you exchange the rings repeat after me. With this ring, I thee wed.” Both of them repeated after him and put the ring on the other’s hand. “By the authority vested in me by the state of Los Angeles, I now pronounce you Husband and Husband. You may kiss.” He clapped his hands together as the now married couple kissed and everyone cheered with tears in their eyes. After that, they celebrated the whole night long.

There was a knock on the door. Daphne went up to open it and saw Alex, Willie together with the twins Leila and Tommy. “Hello guys, come in, come in.” She excitedly exclaimed, hugging them. “How are you? How was your tour?” She was so happy to see them again, and also his kids, who were around the age of four now. “Yeah, it was amazing, he was amazing.” Willie admired him, giving him all these compliments. “Mitchell come here, they arrived.” She shouted upstairs to her husband. “Alex, come here boy….” He hugged his son, as he came down the stairs. “I missed you, how are you? How are your bandmates?” The blonde really missed his parents, he couldn’t see them a lot in the last year, but he’s happy now.”GRANDMA, GRANDPA” Their voices shrill and loud. “Kidssss” both ran up to him now and he picked them up. “Well Luke and Julie are doing pretty good, when we were on tour Emily, Mitch and Ray looked after the kids. Jules actually got pregnant before we had to leave and has one month to go, and so I think they are pretty stressed now. Oh and next month is Flynn and Carries wedding.” He sat down next to his beautiful husband on the couch now. The kids were still young, so they made sure to annoy both as much as the could, by jumping on them now to play with them. “Kids are so exhausting…” He told his mom, as she came in with some coffee. “ Oh believe me..I know” she let out a laugh. “Heyyy, i wasnt that bad.” She looked at him weird, “ Oh yes….yes you were.” Daphne also sat down now, and they began to talk and catch up now. After a few hours, it was getting dark, so they decided to go back home. The kids fell asleep, meaning they had to carry them to the car. When everyone was buckled up the pair shared a kiss and Alex went to the house again, to say goodbye to his parents. “It was so nice to see you and your family again. You have to come by more often.” The mom said, as she took her cardigan and crossed it in the middle in front of her chest. “Yeah, i know…I’ll call you when I have time again, and we’ll make a date.” “Yeah okay and now go champ, your Sprouse is waiting for you.” He pointed at the car. “ Yeah…ill see you soon.” Before he went away, he said one last thing. “Mommy, Daddy….I love you…”
