Prologue

Buffy and Angel were holding hands and walking through downtown L.A. Buffy was now seven months pregnant and due in two more months and really starting to show. They had the nursery all set up. Buffy smiled at her fiancee and said "Can you believe that in a few more weeks were going to be saying 'I do!'" Angel smiled lovingly at his finacee and said "I know I can't wait in a few more weeks were going to be Mr. and Mrs. Donnely."

They kissed passionately they were going to have a picnic and got into Angel's car with a picnic basket and blanket.

They arrived at the beach and Angel took out the blanket they had to stop to buy food it was full of healthy and delicious foods and some snacks. Angel put the blanket on the grass and took out the food he pulled Buffy down next to him on the blanket they had been making plans for there wedding for a few months and they agreed on a small wedding since Angel really didn't have any family members alive and they were going to have the wedding on the pier on the beach were they first kissed in the sunlight and Angel said he knew a priest he had saved that would marry them. and Doyle was going to serve as Angel's best man.

They settled at a nice spot and Buffy said "Now we get to have one of those picnics in the sun you so badly wanted me to have." Buffy taunted playfully. Angel chuckled and said "I know, with your love, me being human, our daughters, us getting married and you becoming Mrs. Buffy Anne Summers-Donnelly and being in the sun with you makes me feel like the richest man in the world."Buffy snuggled against him she pulled his arms around her waist and said "Hmm I actually just prefer Buffy Anne Donnely." Angel smiled warmly at her and said "Yeah me too." He placed a kiss behind her ear knowing it was a pressure point for her and it always made her shiver with delight.

He ran his fingers through her long silky hair and said "Honey I think you should get yourself a hair cut your hair is getting so long it's pratically as long as it was when you were called as the slayer." Angel said running his fingers through her long blonde hair "You really think so?" "Yeah I do. Plus your perm is fading and I love it with your hair permed." "I like it curled too Angel. Maybe your right Angel I should get it cut and re-permed I never wanted it to get this long." He traced his fingers over his bite mark that left a scar on her. Which the demon that was in him liked because it claimed her as his.


Part 1

They had such a nice picnic and took a walk along the beach they went back too the apartment. Buffy said "Willow, Faith, Cordy, mom and I have to get are wedding dresses." Angel chuckled he kissed her and said "See you later, wait are you going too Cordelia's or wait here for them?" "I'm heading too Cordy's." "Okay" she asked him "Can I use your car?" "No I might need it." "Okay I'll just take a bus or a taxi." "Either one you need money." Angel reached into his pocket and handed her a ten and said "Do you need money for all your wedding things?"

"No silly thats the parents jobs and mom and dad already said they were going too pay for everything with my cousins help besides all this baby stuff must cost at least "$10,000.00 if not $20,000.00. Besides we're going too use are claddaghs for wedding rings remember? Which is one less expensive cost." "Yeah I know!" Angel said kissing her passionately "In another few weeks were going to be Mr and Mrs Donnely. I love the sound of that!" "Well I'd better head to Cordy's now. I love you!" Buffy kissed him he said "Love you too." They kissed once more and Buffy left.

Angel watched her go with a smile on his face he felt like the luckiest man in the world. He needed something to do all day.

Angel went into the set up nursery and looked at it everything was all in order and set up he straightend out some of the stuff. He wonder how much all this was on his credit cards even though it didn't really matter he had a couple lifetimes of money saved up in the bank.

She stepped off the horse and stood in the seperate room were the bridesmaids and the maid of honor waited for the music too start and the men were in another room waiting Angel walked too the front, Buffy and Angel decided too have a small wedding it was Buffy's family members and Kate had helped find some people to fill up the grooms side since she and Buffy became friends.

Giles escorted Joyce out, Doyle escorted Cordelia, Oz escorted Willow, Xander escorted Anya, Faith just walked out herself.

Once most of the bride and grooms close friends and family were seated. The wedding music started.

Once Buffy heard the cords of the wedding music Hank said "Ready princess?" "Yes daddy!" "I love you honey." He kissed her on the forhead "I love you too daddy!"

With that they walked out onto the red carpet and all the guest stood up to honor the bride. Angel turned around and beheld his soon to be wife she looked so beautiful. The bride and groom only had eye's for each other and Angel fell in with her all over again as she walked down to aisle Buffy took in Angel's site he had his tux on and his hair was spiked like how she loved it.

He couldn't believe he had been human for 8 months and his dream was coming true both there dreams were coming true as she walked down the red carpet all the guest saw the love and devotion between the bride and the groom and couldn't help but smile.

When Hank and Buffy got to the front of the aisle the priest smiled and said "Who gives this women to this man?" "I do." Hank handed Buffy over to Angel and said "Thank you Mr. Summers." Hank smiled and nodded.

Buffy looped her arm through Angel's and they went up the steps to the platform.

The priest said "We are gathered here today too celbrate in the bonding of two souls as one Buffy Anne Summers and Angel Patrick Donnely. Into this holy estate, these two persons present now come to be joined. If any man can show just cause why they should not be lawfully joined together, let him speak now, or else, here in after, hold his peace" Not a soul spoke. Angel and Buffy looked at each other. The priest read some passages from the bible all that Buffy and Angel could do is look into each others souls.

The preist said "Buffy and Angel have decided to read their own vows." Angel said "Buffy Anne Summers I have loved you from the moment I first saw you I knew from that moment that everything I did in my life happend for a reason too lead me too you my soul mate, my true love, my best friend. I love you now and forever, and as your husband I will love you, protect you, I'll be true and Faithful too you, always be there when you need a shoulder to cry on ask for your opinion on decisions we have to make in the future."

Buffy had tears of happiness fill her eye's "Angel that was beautiful I don't think I'll ever be able to say anything quite as beautiful, but I've loved you from the moment we first met I tried to hide it but I wasn't too succesful, when we shared are first kiss I felt like I was floating and we were the only people in the world, when we made love you made me realize how loved I am and how special you made me feel and made me realized how much you love me, When you wanted to die then ever hurt me again you proved once again how much you love me. You have the most beautiful soul I've ever seen. As your wife I'll obey you, love you and honor you. No mater how many times are love has been tested we've always passed our love has been tested so many times, it's strong and powerful. Are love is so beautiful and real."

"The rings please." The preist said Doyle handed the preist Buffy's claddagh ring and Willow handed the preist Angel's claddagh ring. The priest said "These rings represent the bonding of a marriage the circle that'll never be broken, Angel put this ring on Buffy's finger and say 'with this ring I thee wed.' "With this ring I thee wed." Angel said slidding the claddagh ring on Buffy's finger and said "Angel Patrick Donnely you have taken Buffy too be your wife and your partner in life do you promise too love, honor and comfort her for as long as you both shall live?"

"I do and beyond." Angel said smiling at Buffy. "Buffy put this ring on Angel's finger and say 'With This Ring I thee wed.' "With this ring I thee wed." "Buffy Anne Summers you have chosen Angel Patrick Donnely to be your husband do you promise to love, honor and comfort him for as long as you both shall live?"

"I do and beyond." Buffy said. "Then by the powers invested in me, by the state of California I hear by pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss your bride." Angel lifted Buffy's blusher over her head and kissed her passionately.

When they broke off they looked at the audience and applouse broke out among the guest. The preist said "I now pronounce too you the first time Mr and Mrs. Donnely.

Applouse broke out again and they walked down the aisle or more like Angel carried her it was fallowed by Willow and Oz, Xander and Anya and Cordelia and Doyle, Joyce and Hank they went down towards the beach were a band was set up they decided to have the reception on the beach. Angel said to his wife "I've got a surprise for you."

The guest of the wedding had danced and ate for a while doing all the traditional wedding stuff the throwing of the garder the throwing of the buque and now it was time for the traditional first dance of the bride and groom.

It was time for the wedding dance. Angel whispered to his wife "I'll be back." "Okay don't be too late though it's almost time for a first dance as bride and groom." "I know I have a surprise coming." Angel said giving her a half smile.

Angel went somewere and talked to the backstreet boys and said "Okay guys it's time for my wifes and my wedding song." "Which one should we do?" Nick Carter asked "Well whats an appropiate wedding song from one of your albums?" "Well are latest one on Black and Blue has a couple wedding songs." Kevin Richardson said "that Brain and I wrote for our wives and performed on our wedding night."

"Thanks guys. Go on in five minutes." "Okay." Brian said Angel went back out too were Buffy was. Angel said "Look on the stage under the peir honey?" Buffy did and saw her favorite boy band group coming on stage. She screamed "oh my God! It's the backstreet boys!" "How did you get it?"

"I worked as a body gaurd for a couple times for them remember?" "Oh yeah you got there autographs for me."

"Right!" Buffy kissed him passionately.

The Backstreet Boys showed up on stage and Brian said "Hello, Hello everyone!"

The guest all turned there heads towards the stage and a lot teenage girls squeled with delight.

Nick said "Were singing this song for the newly weds Mr. and Mrs. Donnely. Congrats you two! We'll be singing the song "This I Promise You (With Everything I am.)

The guest all cleared the dance floor that was set up and the Backstreet Boys picked up microphones and they quied the music up and Brain started singing.

//It's in the silences,
The words you never say
I see it in your eyes,
it always starts the same way
It seems like everyone we know,
is breaking up
Does anybody ever stay together, anymore

I promise you
from the bottom of my heart
I will love you till death do us part
I promise you as a lover and a friend//

Buffy and Angel started to sway softly too the music as the lyrics played. Buffy said "This is perfect, are first dance and it's with my favorite group."

"I only wanted the best for a wedding song."

//ooh I see you look at me
when you think I'm not aware.
You're searching for clues
of just how deep my feeling are.
How do you prove the sky is blue, the ocenas wide?
All I know is how I feel
When I look into your eye's.//

The other members of the band joined Brian in the song and were singing the song.

//I promise you,
from the bottom of my heart
I will love you till death do us part
I promise you as a lover and a friend
I will love you like I never love again
With everything that I am ooh yeah

Oh there are no guarantees
That's what you always say to me
But late at night I feel the tremble in your touch
Oh What I'm trying to say to you,
I never said to anyone I promise//

Buffy rested her head on Angel's chest and they danced closely as possible as the band played. "This day has been a dream come true. It's almost as good as the day when you first became human."

"Yeah everything is perfect in our lives now, and after this we'll be on a plan too Ireland for our honeymoon." "Angel I think we should see what Dr. Lisa says about that with me being eight months pregnant." "I know so we can have it be approved by Dr. Lisa." Buffy placed her head on his chest again hearing his heartbeat. She'd never get tired of hearing it.

//I promise you
from the bottom of my heart
I will love you till death do us part
I promise you as a lover and a friend
I will love you like I never love again
With everything that I am ooh yeah

Oh there are no guarantees
That's what you always say too me
But late at night I feel the tremble in your touch
Oh what I'm trying to say to you
I never said to anyone I promise

I promise you
from the bottom of my heart
I will love you till death do us part
(I do my darling I promise you)
I promise you as a lover and a friend
I will love you like I never love again

With everything I am I promise you
from the bottom of my heart
I will love you till death do us part
(I love you I love you I love you I love you)
I promise you as a lover and a friend
I will love you like I never love again
With everything I am
You're everything I am oh yeah

The song ended and the guest all applouded and A.J. took the microphone and said "Congrats Buffy and Angel. All of us wish you a happy marriage especially are newly married buddies Kevin and Brain."

With that the boys walked off the stage and thousands of teenage girls ran up too them including Buffy's friends and they were all signing autographs.
