"Can I say I'm glad I was Camila's maid of honor?" Violetta asked. Francesca and Camila both stared at her.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Francesca questioned, raising an eyebrow.
"I didn't just have a baby when Camila was getting married. María was ten months, and I had stopped breastfeeding by then," Violetta answered. "Are you sure you're ready for motherhood?"
"More than ready," Francesca replied, with a huge smile on her face. She glanced down at her non-showing pregnant belly.
"So what exactly is In Vitro?" Camila asked.
"They take sperm and put it in a culture dish to fertilize the egg, once the egg is fertilized, they put it into my uterus, and bam! I'm finally pregnant," Francesca explained. "Where is Ludmila and Naty at?"
"Remember, Ludmila is a mother of two five month olds. She's going to be late a lot," Violetta told Francesca.
"Not to my wedding, she's not," Francesca responded. Just as on cue, Ludmila came into the dressing room, and took a deep breath.
"Sorry, we're late, Fran," Naty told Francesca. "Emma and Noah had a double doo-doo situation and Fede was nowhere to be found."
"It's alright. We still have an hour until we start walking," Camila told the two that came in late. "Vilu help Fran finish her hair, and I'll help Ludmi and Naty." Violetta responded with a thumbs up.
"I wonder how the guys are doing," Francesca questioned.
"Knowing Marco, León and Fede, they're probably going their hair, and Broduey and Maxi are doing whatever, just trying not to ruin their suits," Violetta answered, curling Francesca's hair.
"Do you think Fede feels bad about being a last minute wedding court addition?" Francesca asked, Violetta shrugged.
"I'm not sure, but it was an uneven ratio when you asked María to be in it," Violetta told Francesca. "She was so happy about you asking her to be a bridesmaid, Fran."
"She's my goddaughter, and I couldn't have three flower girls," Francesca replied. Violetta agreed with her. Francesca's flower girls were Sofia and Valeria. Francesca's ring bearer was Ana. "I was also glad they had a child sized version of the bridesmaids' dresses."
"Speaking off the dress, I'm going to check on her, and make sure she hasn't gotten it dirty yet," Violetta told Francesca. "She probably hasn't, don't worry."
"You want an excuse to see León," Francesca replied. "Go, and tell Marco I can't wait to see him at the altar." Violetta smiled before leaving the girls' dressing room. She saw people walking into the church, and she saw Francesca's parents wave at her and smile.
"Mama!" María ran to her mother. "Is it almost time?" María asked.
"Not yet," Violetta told her eldest. "You look beautiful, my love."
"When is it time?" María asked.
"Remember when we rehearsed?" Violetta asked. "You're going to walk with Tio Fede, right before Tia Naty and Tio Broduey."
"I remember now! Then Tia Ludmi and Tio Maxi walk after, then you and daddy, and then Tia Cami and Diego, and then Sofia, Ana, and Val, and then Tia Fran," María repeated what she remembered.
"María— Violetta, thank god you're here. I need help!" Federico shouted, and pulled Violetta into the guys' dressing room.
"What's the problem?" Violetta asked.
"Why is this suit too big?" Federico asked. Violetta sighed, and looked at the tag of the suit.
"Where's León?" Violetta asked. León entered the room from the bathroom.
"I realized why this was a little snug, it's your suit, Fede." León said walking in with just sweats. He handed the clothes he was wearing a little while ago to Federico.
"The tags have your initials on it, so this doesn't happen," Violetta explained. Federico replied with sticking his tongue out at her before walking to change his suit.
"You look beautiful," León told Violetta. "How's everything at the girls' side?"
"Running smoothly, we're just waiting for the ten minute mark to put the dresses on. It seems everything is going good here."
"Except me and Fede mixing our suits up," León laughed.
"I should get back to our room," Violetta said as she glanced at the clock.
"I'll see you when we walk down the aisle," León told Violetta. Violetta smiled in response before leaving the guys' dressing room.

"Please welcome Mr and Mrs Marco Tavelli!" The DJ said into the microphone as Francesca and Marco walked into their reception party. The couple had a huge smile on their faces.
"I'm so happy for Fran," Violetta told León as they were dancing to a slow song. "She's finally having a baby, and she's having her big wedding she's always dreamed of."
"She deserves it," León added. Violetta nodded, leaning her head on his chest, swaying to the music.
"Excuse me, can I get a water?" Diego asked the bartender.
"A water, really? It's a wedding, it's a celebration." Diego turned to see a brunette leaning against the bar with a champagne glass in her hand.
"Don't really want to drink when I have to go home to a four month old," Diego responded.
"Shit, you're married," the girl mumbled, then downed her champagne.
"Not all people with children are married, it's the twenty first century, and twenty-eighteen. I'm Diego," Diego introduced himself.
"Catalina," the brunette– Catalina– introduced herself. "Do you know the bride or groom?"
"I'm the best man," Diego responded. "Weren't you at the ceremony? Don't tell me you're a wedding crasher."
Catalina laughed, making Diego smile. "No, I'm not a wedding crasher, I was just late and missed the ceremony. I'm Marco's cousin. How well do you know his wife? Had no idea who she was until I got the wedding invitation."
"Francesca?" Diego asked, Catalina nodded. "She's honestly the best person for Marco there is. They're perfect for each other."
"I'm going to trust you about her," Catalina told Diego. "Wanna dance?" Catalina asked Diego when a new song started. Diego agreed, leading Catalina to the dance floor.
"Maxi, I have to tell you something," Naty told her husband while they were dancing together.
"What is it?" Maxi asked.
"Remember how we said we wanted more children?" Naty question, and Maxi nodded in response. "Well, I'm pregnant."
"What?" Maxi exclaimed, Naty repeated herself again. "I can't believe it. I love you!" Maxi pulled his wife into a passionate kiss.
Ludmila laughed when Federico dipped her. When Federico pulled her up, he pressed a kiss against her lips.
"Why are you being so lovey-dovey, right now?" Ludmila asked. Federico shrugged. "You know why, and so do I," Ludmila told Federico. He sighed. "Why didn't you tell me?"
"Because it's a six month long tour, and I don't want to be away from the twins or you for that long," Federico explained. Ludmila frowned, pulling Federico's face to face her.
"We knew that your comeback tour was coming, it's been four years since your last show. Plus, the twins and I will be waiting for you when you get back," Ludmila assured her husband. Federico nodded. "When do you leave?"
"Next week."
"Thank you," Camila told Broduey.
"For what?"
"Everything," Camila started. "I know I never appreciate everything you do for me, but I do. With this wedding making me so busy these past months, you still helped me with everything, no questions asked."
"You're my wife, and the mother of my two beautiful children. I would do anything for you," Broduey replied.
"I want another baby," Camila blurted. "I know we agreed to wait until Tony was at least two, but—" Broduey cut his wife off with a kiss.
"Me too," Broduey whispered, agreeing.
"Will everyone welcome the Bride and Groom to the dance floor for their first dance!" The DJ announced.
Everyone watched as Marco led Francesca onto the dance floor. Francesca laughed when Marco did a small dance move before he began dancing with Francesca.
"You're an idiot," Francesca told Marco.
"Yeah, but you married this idiot," Marco responded.
"I did, and I would do it over again," Francesca replied. "Would you?"
"In a heartbeat."
so i decided this was a better epilogue than a chapter. And it gives me something to work with for a sequel. :)
I updated like ten-ish hours ago. And I have to get ready to go to class, and I thought I should update this and tell you about the sequel. :)
Fran is pregnant, thanks to something called In Vitro fertilization. A test-tube baby is an informal term for it. I personally know women who had In Vitro and had babies through it.
The sequel will be about all the couples rather than just leonetta. Because Marco and Fran are married with a baby on the way. Maxi and Naty are having another baby. Ludmila and Federico are going to be apart for six months. Camila and Broduey are going to try to have another baby. And León and Violetta, well they just started dating again a few months before the wedding.
Oh, and Diego has a new love interest. I pictured Carolina Kopelioff as Catalina. I think she plays someone in Soy Luna, I haven't gotten the chance to watch it.
Also, as for the sequel. It's just going to be called her ex husband 2 very original, huh? But it should be posted in a week or two.
