*skip to reception*
*still Chelsea's pov*
Wow. I've done it. I'm officially a married woman. I've wanted to know the feeling for a very long time. Practically since I was little and I watched my two older sisters get married. Harry had his arm around my waist almost the entire time during the reception. He didn't really want to leave my side, especially since the fire so many months ago. A couple times, I felt pairs of eyes on me. I looked around and caught a couple guys staring me down. They were John Hamilton, my former crush from high school days, and Scotty McCreery, the American Idol Season 10 winner turned country singer that was my favorite, even though I didn't watch him during his American Idol days. John and Scotty seemed to have a hint of something in their eyes. Just as I turned to look at them individually, they looked away as soon as I looked at them separately. My guess was jealousy. I then wondered if they maybe had something to do with the fire that destroyed mine and Harry's home. I decided to wait until me and Harry were alone so we could talk about what I saw privately.

"Alright, ladies and gents, the moment has come. If the bride and groom could come to the dance floor!" the DJ announced. Harry and I smiled as we made our way to the dance floor. Harry and I got to the center and faced each other with big smiles on our faces.
"They're gonna dance to a sweet song from Shania Twain. Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Styles!" the DJ said. Then, the first notes of 'You're Still The One' started playing and Harry and I started to share our first slow dance as husband and wife. We held each other close (imagine the first dance like the picture) and kept our cheeks against each other. I felt his breath on my ear and then I realized that Harry was softly singing along to the song. I giggled as he let out a soft chuckle and he pulled me closer to him, if that was even possible.
"I must be one of the luckiest women in the world." I whispered.
"Chelsea, baby, I'm the lucky one. When I first saw you at the souvenir stand speaking with my mum and Gemma, I had to think fast if I had any chance at all in snagging you. I thought I'd dress up as a 40-some-year-old and try to impress you, but we both know how that went."
I laughed silently as I remembered the day Harry and I met. He continued,
"No matter what it took, no matter how much of my career was at stake, I did it all for you. You mean so much to me and I would do anything in the world for you. I love you."
I smiled back as I whispered,
"That was sweet. I love you, too."
We then shared another kiss as the song ended and the DJ introduced the wedding party and our parents onto the dance floor. Once the wedding party was on the dance floor with their respective dates, Dolly Parton's voice along with Vince Gill's voice, rang through the speakers with their rendition of 'I Will Always Love You'. All throughout the song, I glanced at everyone dancing with their dates as well as our parents dancing with each other. I smiled as I watched my dad dance with my mom and I could feel Harry smile as he watched Robin twirl Anne around on the dance floor along with Des and his lady friend.
*little while later*
Everybody was having a good time dancing to the music and socializing with everybody else. Then, the song 'Kiss On My List' by Hall & Oates came on. Harry looked at me funny as it came on. I looked at him and said,
"What?"
"Hall & Oates? Really?"
"It's the only song from them I actually know."
He laughed as well as me as he took my hand and led me out to the dance floor.
My friends wonder why
I call you all the time
What can I say?
I don't feel the need
To give such secrets away
You think maybe I need help
No, I know I'm right
Alright
I'm just better off
Not listening to friends' advice
When they insist
On knowing my bliss
I tell them this
When they wanna know what
The reason is
I only smile when I lie
And I tell them why
Because your kiss
Your kiss is on my list
Because your kiss
Your kiss is on my list
Because your kiss
Is on my list
Of the best things in life
Because your kiss
Your kiss is on my list
Because your kiss
Your kiss I can't resist
Because your kiss
Is what I miss
When I turn out the light
I go crazy wondering
What there is to really see
Did the night just take up your time
'Cause it means more to me
Sometimes I forget what I'm doing
I don't forget what I want
What I want
Regret what I've done
Regret you
I couldn't go on
But if you insist
On knowing my bliss
I'll tell you this
If you want to know
What the reason is
I only smile when I lie
Then I'll tell you why
Because your kiss
Your kiss is on my list
Because your kiss
Your kiss is on my list
Because your kiss
Is on my list
Of the best things in life
Because your kiss
Your kiss is on my list
Because your kiss
Your kiss I can't resist
Because your kiss
Is what I miss
When I turn out the light
I really miss you, babe
Because your kiss
Your kiss is on my list
Because your kiss
Your kiss is on my list
Because your kiss
Is on my list
Of the best things in life
Because your kiss
Your kiss is on my list
Because your kiss
Your kiss I can't resist
Because your kiss
Is what I miss
When I turn out the light
Because your kiss
Your kiss is on my list
Because your kiss
Your kiss I can't resist
Because your kiss
Is on my list
Of the best things in life
Because your kiss
Your kiss is on my list
(Fades to the end)
Everyone cheered and clapped after 'Kiss On My List' ended. Then, I got an idea, so if this were a cartoon, a lit light bulb would appear above my head. I turned to Harry and said,
"Be right back, babe."
"Uh, okay?" he said confused as we kissed and I went off to find Eleanor, Perrie, Sophia, and Kate. The idea I had, well, I kinda needed them to help me with it. You know how the boys always told us girlfriends and all of the Directioners that we're beautiful with their song 'What Makes You Beautiful'? Well, now at mine and Harry's wedding reception, it's our turn. I thought of me, Eleanor, Perrie, Sophia, and Kate singing 'What Makes You Beautiful' to the guys. Of course, we would be singing our respective guy's parts, except Louis and Niall don't have solos in the song. We solved that problem by splitting Liam and Zayn's solos. Eleanor would sing the second half of Liam's solo while Kate would sing the second half of Zayn's solo. I would hide out in the giant coat closet while Eleanor would hide in the girl's bathroom, Perrie in the next room, Sophia by the DJ booth, and Kate by the door to the kitchens.
The girls all agreed to it and we snuck over to the DJ booth and 'confiscated' the boys' microphones. I grabbed Harry's 'green' one, Eleanor grabbed Louis' 'blue' one, Sophia grabbed Liam's 'red' one, Perrie grabbed Zayn's 'yellow' one, and Kate grabbed Niall's 'Irish flag' one and we all scurried off to our spots. I wouldn't be revealed to everybody else until Harry's big solo near the end of the song, but the other girls would be revealed and over by the DJ booth when I came out. The girls would be revealed when they start singing their solos. When it was time for the big solo, my best girl friends would open the doors to the coat closet to reveal me and I would walk over by the girls as I sang Harry's solo.
After we got settled in our starting spots, I faintly heard the music die down and sound like something was wrong with the system or something.
"What's going on?" I faintly heard Harry say and I quietly giggled to myself. I took a quick peek at Harry and the rest of the boys were beside him. Perfect. I gave a thumbs up to the DJ and ducked back inside the coat closet and shut the door quietly. The DJ then started to play the first few notes of WMYB. Then, I heard Sophia sing,
You're insecure
Don't know what for
You're turning heads when you
Walk through the door
Then, Eleanor picked up singing,
Don't need make-up
To cover up
Being the way that you are
Is enough
I took a quick deep breath before I sang,
Everyone else in the room can see it
Everyone else but you
Then, all 5 of us belted out,
Baby, you light up my world
Like nobody else
The way that you flip your hair
Gets me overwhelmed
But when you smile at the ground
It ain't hard to tell
You don't know, oh oh
You don't know you're beautiful
If only you saw what I could see
You'll understand why I want you
So desperately
Right now I'm looking at you
And I can't believe
You don't know, oh oh
You don't know you're beautiful
Oh oh
(Me) That's what makes you beautiful
Everyone cheered before Perrie sang,
So c-come on
You got it wrong
To prove I'm right
I put it in a song
Then, Kate followed with,
I don't know why
You're being shy
And turn away
When I look into your eyes
Then, I sang again,
Everyone else in the room can see it
Everyone else but you
Then, we belted out together,
Baby, you light up my world
Like nobody else
The way that you flip your hair
Gets me overwhelmed
But when you smile at the ground
It ain't hard to tell
You don't know, oh oh
You don't know you're beautiful
If only you saw what I could see
You'll understand why I want you
So desperately
Right now I'm looking at you
And I can't believe
You don't know, oh oh
You don't know you're beautiful
Oh oh
(Me) That's what makes you beautiful
We started clapping to the beat along with everyone else as I took deep breathes before my best girl friends opened the door to reveal myself to everybody else. The song finally reached Harry's big solo and I slowly walked out while singing,
Baby, you light up my world
Like nobody else
The way that you flip your hair
Gets me overwhelmed
When you smile at the ground
It ain't hard to tell
You don't know
I pretty much was gazing at Harry 99.9% of the time it took me to walk over by the girls who were by the DJ booth. The boys were smiling at us and I winked at Harry just before I reached the girls and faced everyone else and sang out,
You don't know you're beautiful
before I joined the girls in singing the last chorus,
Baby, you light up my world
Like nobody else
The way that you flip your hair
Gets me overwhelmed
But when you smile at the ground
It ain't hard to tell
You don't know, oh oh
You don't know you're beautiful
If only you saw what I could see
You'll understand why I want you
So desperately
Right now I'm looking at you
And I can't believe
You don't know, oh oh
You don't know you're beautiful
Oh, oh
You don't know you're beautiful
Oh, oh
I sang the last line with all of my heart,
That's what makes you beautiful!
The song ended and everyone cheered really loud. The boys cheered especially loud as they made their way over to us to embrace us. When Harry reached me, he had his trademark grin on his face and he said,
"That was really amazing. Was it planned all along?"
"No. It was a spur of the moment thing." I responded.
"Well, either way, it was beautiful, babe." he said before he kissed me. Then, he whispered in my ear,
"Now it's our turn to serenade you girls."
I shivered a bit at what he was implying and he let out a soft chuckle before he kissed my ear and took his microphone back from me. Then, I went over by my mother who was laughing.
"What's so funny, Mom?"
She took a minute to stop laughing enough to respond with,
"You should've seen Harry's face when the song first started playing and you girls came out and were singing the song!"
I laughed as I said,
"I kinda heard him say 'what's going on?' before the song started playing."
Suddenly, we all heard Harry's voice ring through the speakers.
"Okay, so now it's our turn to serenade our girls. They just serenaded us so to even things out."
That earned a laugh from everybody in the place, including me. Then, the first notes of 'Steal My Girl' started playing. Everyone cheered and me and the girls danced along to the song and lip-synced. Zayn started out with,
She'd been my queen
Since we were sixteen
We want the same things
We dream the same dreams
Alright
Alright
I got it all
'Cause she is the one
Her mum calls me love
Her dad calls me son
Alright
Alright
Then, Niall,
I know
I know
I know
For sure
We all clapped along to the beat as the boys continued,
Everybody wanna steal my girl
Everybody wanna take her heart away
Couple billion in the whole wide world
Find another one 'cause she belongs to me
Everybody wanna steal my girl
Everybody wanna take her heart away
Couple billion in the whole wide world
Find another one 'cause she belongs to me
Na na na na na na
Oh yeah
Na na na na na na
Alright
Na na na na na na
Harry looked at me as he sang,
She belongs to me
Right away, Liam picked up singing
Kisses like cream
Her walk is so mean
And every jaw drop
When she's in those jeans
Alright
Alright
Louis started singing after Liam,
I don't exist
If I don't have her
The sun doesn't shine
The world doesn't turn
Alright
Alright
Niall picked back up again,
But I know
I know
I know
For sure
Back to all 5,
Everybody wanna steal my girl
Everybody wanna take her heart away
Couple billion in the whole wide world
Find another one 'cause she belongs to me
Everybody wanna steal my girl
Everybody wanna take her heart away
Couple billion in the whole wide world
Find another one 'cause she belongs to me
Na na na na na na
Oh yeah
Na na na na na na
Alright
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na
Then, Harry came by me and sang while looking straight into my eyes.
She knows
She knows
That I never let her down before
And she knows
She knows
That I'm never gonna let another
Take her love from me now
All 5 then sang out,
Everybody wanna steal my girl
Everybody wanna take her love away
Couple billion in the whole wide world
Find another one 'cause she belongs to me
Harry then planted a passionate kiss on my lips as the boys continued singing and he pulled me close and we danced slowly to the rest of the song.
Everybody wanna steal my girl
Everybody wanna take her heart away
Couple billion in the whole wide world
Find another one 'cause she belongs to me
Na na na na na na
Oh yeah
Na na na na na na
Alright
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na
She belongs to me
Na na na na na na
Oh yeah
Na na na na na na
Alright
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na
She belongs to me
Everyone all cheered really loud as Harry and I kissed really passionately.
*skip most of reception*
By the time the reception was almost over, it was just me, Harry, and our parents. Everything was already cleaned up, but the DJ remained to play the last song, which was 'Night Changes'. Harry was holding me close as we danced slowly to the last song.
"Harry?" I asked, ready to bring up the subject of the jealous eyes I saw earlier coming from John and Scotty.
"Yeah?" he murmured.
"Should I be scared about something?"
"Of what?"
"Earlier, during the reception, I felt like more than one pair of eyes were watching me."
"Probably 'cause you're the bride. My bride."
"I know, but these were different. These felt like jealous eyes."
"Now who would be jealous of you? Well, besides my exes, but they weren't invited, so I don't know."
"Well, I looked around and John and Scotty both looked away when I glanced at them at the same time."
"Wait, both John and Scotty, ex crushes of yours?"
"Yeah. I just couldn't help but wonder if they had something to do with the fire."
Harry was silent for a few seconds before he spoke up,
"We'd have to find evidence against them if you think they did have something to do with the fire."
"But notice how our fire was the most recent fire from the LA arsonist bandit person? There's been nothing new since our fire."
"True. Now that you put it that way, it looks like we were the targets."
"But what about the fires that happened before ours?"
He sighed before he said,
"I don't know, baby, but what matters now is that you're safe. I'm safe. We're safe. Nothing and nobody will come between us now."
