~A Couple Months Later~
Y/n's POV
It's been a couple months since Jotaro proposed to me and It's also our wedding day. Since then me and Jotaro have moved in together. We looked for a nice house and bought it. Selling our apartments. Me, my mother and Holly went dress shopping and I found the perfect dress. They both really loved it
I was in the dressing room as my mother and Holly did my make up
"I can't believe you're all grown up" My mother says
"Yes, I'm so excited! I've always wanted a daughter! I'm happy Jotaro chose you" Holly says with a smile
"Did I ever tell you guys how we got together?" I ask
"Oh, no please tell us!" Holly says. I proceeded to tell them how I boldly asked him out. They both laughed
"You'd think he'd ask you out because he looks so bold himself" My mom says
"Yeah he glared at me when I asked him" I say laughing
"Oh, I remember hearing Jotaro on the phone with someone and then shortly after I heard him reciting 'go out with me'" Holly says
"So he was planning on asking me out. He was too slow" I say. They both laugh. Holly then backs away
"Your makeup is all done! You look absolutely beautiful dear" Shee says as she grabs my hands.
"I'm just about finished with her hair" My mom says. She then finishes my hair and puts the veil over my face
"Okay, your father should be waiting outside, make sure he doesn't cry on your dress" My mom says. I nod and stand up. I open the door to see my father in tears
"My baby!" He cries trying to hug me. I hold him back
"Not on the dress" I say. He wipes his tears
"You're all grown up" He says. I then see Suzi Q.
"Oh dear, you look so good, I'm just here to let ya know that we're ready" She says with a smile.
"Thank you" I say. She then waves and heads back inside. We're having a relatively small wedding, with immediate family and close friends. I lock arms with my father. We walked through the doors and everyone turned. As we got closer I noticed Jotaro was staring at me with his mouth slightly open. I smile at this. I walk up and the minister begins doing his thing. I intertwine my hands with Jotaro. I could tell he was extremely nervous. I turned to see Kakyoin. He pointed to the left. A confused look appeared on my face as I looked to the left. Only to see Star and S/n cuddling in the air. I giggle which makes Jotaro turn to see what's happening. I watch his face turn red
I love Jotaro. Things I've noticed about him since we've started dating is that, he's very shy about intimacy. He's also emotionally distant, and it can be hard. I've noticed he's been trying to be less distant and more affectionate. I think it's really cute in all honesty and I'm glad we're getting married
"Please be seated" The minster says. Everyone sits down
"We're all here today to celebrate the relationship of Y/n and Jotaro and to be witnesses and supporters of the commitment they share with one another. Together we're a group of the most important people in their lives and they've brought us here to publicly recognize that we've all played some special part in the love they share today" the minister continues
"Y/n and Jotaro wanted me to thank you all for being here and to recognize how important each and every one of you are to their relationship. They would also like to recognize all of those who couldn't make it here today as they are certainly missed but not forgotten on this day of celebration" The minster says
Avdol, Iggy
"Speaking of important people, there were none more important in influencing the lives of Y/n and Jotaro than their parents. With that being said, who gives Y/n away in marriage to this man?" My father shakily stands up as tears stream down his face
"Her mother and I" he says and then sits back down
"Marriage gives permeance and structure to a couple's love. It's a way to tell one another that no matter how much you snore or how much you spent while out at the shopping mall, we're still in this together. It's more permanent than Jotaro's obsession with dolphins and has more staying power than Y/n's sadistic tendencies that she's had since they first met. Marriage is telling the person you love that you're not going anywhere and that's a powerful commitment for two people to make to one another"
"A good marriage must be built in 5he foundation of this commitment. In marriage the 'little' things are the big things. It is never being too old to hold hands. It is remembering to say 'I love you' at least once a day. It is never going to sleep angry. It is standing together and facing the world. It is speaking words of appreciation, and demonstrating gratitude in thoughtful ways. It is having the capacity to forgive and forget. It is giving each other an atmosphere in which each can grow. It is a common search for the good and the beautiful. It is not only marrying the right partner, it is being the right partner"
I noticed Jotaro was looking to the side so the people in the stands couldn't see his face. That's when I realized he was crying. My heart melted
"The road that has brought Y/n and Jotaro here today hasn't been east. It's been filled with challenges that they weren't necessarily prepared for. But together they've taken each one on and have used those experiences to strengthen, not weaken their love"
"Y/n and Jotaro, the vows you are about to make are a way to share your love and commitment to each other in your own words. Sometimes poems, verses and quotes just don't get the point across the way you need them to and the best option is just to do it yourself. These vows are your way of openly declaring your promise to one another as well as to all of those who are here in attendance today"
"Y/n, ladies first" I take a deep breath as a smile appears on my face. I look Jotaro straight in the eyes as he also turned to face me
"I promise to always remember that you are indeed human. That you may sometimes make questionable decisions, decisions I don't agree with, like trying to buy a living dolphin with my debit card because you grabbed my wallet instead of your own. But what I love about you is I know you do a lot of things that may come off as rude because you care so deeply about those who are close to you and you are genuinely one of the most thoughtful and considerate people I have ever known even if the way you show it, is different. You remind of my mother in that way. Today, I promise to show that same care and consideration for you for the rest of my life. Right now, it's the easiest thing in the world to do because I honestly love you so much and want nothing more than your happiness, but even when things are difficult and it gets hard to do and our love gets more comfortable, complacent, and time worn, I will always show that same care and consideration for you" I say with a smile. Jotaro squeezed my hand as he took a shaky breath
"I promise to encourage your compassion, because this is what makes you unique and wonderful. I promise to nurture your dreams, because through them your soul shines. I promise to help shoulder our challenges, for there is nothing we cannot face if we stand together. I promise to be your partner in all things, not possessing you, but working with you as a part of the whole. Lastly, I promise you perfect love and perfect trust, for one lifetime with you could not be enough. This is my sacred vow to you, my equal in all things" Jotaro says. G/B/F(Girl best friend) came up to me with Jotaro's ring. Kakyoin gave Jotaro mine
"Y/n and Jotaro will now exchange rings to symbolize their commitment. Rings are derived from humble beginnings of imperfect metal to create something striking when their is nothing at all. It is customarily worn of the ring finger as it is the only finger with a vein running directly to the heart. The wearing of the rings is a visible, outward sign that they have committed themselves to one another"
"Jotaro, please take Y/n's hand and repeat these words" Jotaro grabs my left hand
"I give you this ring, as a symbol of our love"
"I give you this ring as a symbol of our love" Jotaro repeats
"For today and tomorrow, and for all the days to come"
"For today and tomorrow, and for all the days to come" Jotaro repeats
"Wear it as a sign of what we promised on this day"
"Wear it as a sign of what we promised on this day" Jotaro repeats
"And know my love is present"
"And know my love is present" Jotaro repeats
"Even when I am not"
"Even when I am not" Jotaro says. He then puts the ring on my finger
"Y/n, please take Jotaro's hand and repeat these words" I take Jotaro's left hand
"I give you this ring, as a symbol of our love"
"I give you this ring as a symbol of our love" I repeat
"For today and tomorrow, and for all the days to come"
"For today and tomorrow, and for all the days to come" I repeat
"Wear it as a sign of what we promised on this day"
"Wear it as a sign of what we promised on this day" I repeat
"And know my love is present"
"And know my love is present" I repeat. I then put the ring on his finger
"Even when I am not"
"Even when I am not" I repeat
"Y/n and Jotaro you have professed you love by exchanging your vows. You have symbolized your commitment by exchanging rings. With all of this there is just one more question I need each of you to answer and then we're off to the reception to celebrate"
"Y/n, do you take Jotaro to be your husband, to live together in the covenant of marriage? Do you promise to love him, comfort him, honor and keep him, in sickness and in health and for, forsaking all others, be faithful to him as long as you both shall live?"
"I do" I say with tears in my eyes
"Jotaro, do you take Y/n to be your wife, to live together in the covenant of marriage? Do you promise to love her, comfort her, honor and keep her, in sickness and in health, and, for forsaking all others, be faithful to her as long as you both shall live?" Jotaro hesitates for a moment
"I-I do" He says
"By the power invested in me I now pronounce you husband and wife. Jotaro you may kiss your bride"
I grab Jotaro by the collar and pulled him in for a kiss. Everyone who was there clapped
"Get it Jotaro!" I hear Joseph yell. I then hear a slap
"Ow, Suzie" Joseph whines. We break apart and I give Jotaro a wink
"It's my great honor and privilege to be the first to present to you Mr. and Mrs. Jotaro Kujo"
~Time Skip~
The reception had been going on for a while now.
"I can't believe you two finally got married" Polnareff says
"We all saw it coming since our trip to Egypt" Joseph says laughing
"I enjoyed watching Jotaro get jealous over you" Kakyoin says laughing
"Jealous..?" I thought. I then recalled our trip to Egypt. It then came to me as I snapped my fingers
"So that's why he kept glaring at you" I say
"He was too close" Jotaro says. I laugh
"You'll be much closer to her tonight Jotaro, don't worry" Polnareff says giggling. I noticed Jotaro got uncomfortable by Polnareff's comment
"Aren't you like 30? You're still single?" I ask. I watch Polnareff's jaw drop
"30?! I'm 25! Do I look 30? Is that why I can't get a girlfriend?" He asks. He then enters his mid life crisis as he walks to the corner and breaks down.
Oops
I felt a tug on my arm. I turned to see Jotaro staring at me
"What is it?" I ask
"I'm exhausted and would like to leave, but only if you're fine with it" He says. I nod
"Hey guys, we're going to go" I say
"The devil's tango" Joseph says laughing
"You foul mouthed man, don't mind him dear. You two hurry up and bring us great grandchildren though" Suzi says smiling
"Ah yes, I can't wait to be a grandmother!" Holly says clapping. I grab Jotaro's hand
"Goodbye" I say with a smile as we walk out.
