Chapter Text
Waverly Earp looked in the mirror and smiled, taking in her appearance. Her dress was beautiful and filled all dreams she had had of this day. Wynonna had been helping with her hair/make up all morning and as much as the sisters fought Waverly had to admit her maid of honor had done a fucking amazing job.
“Come on baby girl it’s time, you better not be getting cold feet in there” Wynonna shouted from the other room. Waverly’s smile faltered for a second as she thought about what she was about to do. But then it came back as bright as ever as she thought about what an amazing guy Champ was. Okay, she’d be the first to admit he wasn’t perfect, especially when it came to intelligence, but he was kind and caring and she knew he loved her. That was all Waverly needed to be happy.
After one final check of her hair, Waverly left the small room to join her sister, Gus and Shorty in the car.
“Waverly Earp you look incredible” Gus said in awe as Waverly climbed into the car.
“You’d make your old dad proud you would” Shorty added, squeezing her hand.
Waverly couldn’t help but blush at the compliments. “I wish he could have been here” she sighed.
Wynonna grabbed her hand and smiled at her “I’m glad he’s not, he would have killed you for the length of that dress” she joked and Waverly laughed, glad that her sister was here to share her special day.
As they sat in the car travelling towards the wedding Shorty began to go on about his own wedding day to Gus “If I’d killed her then I’d be out of jail now” he said, winking at his wife.
Waverly gave a small smile but inside her nerves were building. What if this was all a mistake? What if Champ couldn’t truly make her happy? The first thing her sister had said when she returned to town was ‘you can do better’ and although Waverly could see her sisters point, purgatory was a small town and better wasn’t an option. And Champ was a good guy, she reasoned with herself. He’d made her happy for the last 5 years so why would anything change now?
Wynonna squeezed her hand clearly seeing the younger girl was in deep thought. Waverly looked up and smiled, deciding there and then that this was her wedding day and she was going to enjoy it.
“I spoke to Nedley about getting some extra protection at the wedding,” Wynonna said “He’s sending over a new officer who’s just started, officer Hot or something”. Although Wynonna had killed all the revenants years ago some of their friends still remained which meant Wynonna and Waverly were often targets.
“Officer hot” Waverly asked, a giggle escaping her lips “Maybe you can find a date for this wedding after all” she added, wiggling her eyebrows at Wynonna.
Wynonna pushed her sister’s shoulder “Okay Dolls has gone away for 2 weeks sis, I’m not going to start shagging the whole town in his absence”
Waverly giggled “That’s not the Wynonna I know”
A blush appeared on Wynonnas cheeks “Plus officer Hot is a women and although I’m open to pretty much anything I don’t think I swing that way” Waverly snorted as Gus put her head in her hands at the older girls last comment.
As the girls joked, the car came to a stop and Waverly realised they had arrived at the church. “Here’s to the start of forever” she whispered as she stepped out of the car and made her way towards the church.
