“You look absolutely beautiful Rach, I can’t believe that you’re getting married!” Jo helped Rachel with the last touch of her wedding gown. “I know, I’ve always dreamed of this wedding, since I was a little girl, and now it’s finally happening. Ok, I’m not marrying the man I always dreamt of when I was a little girl though, it’s hard to get in touch of George Clooney when he’s in Hollywood all the time” Rachel smiled and gave Jo a hug, “but I think I’ve found the right one”

Finally the church bells where ringing and Rachel could walk up to the man of her dreams. “Oh my God, you look like an angel” Bradley got tears in his eyes when he watched his bride to come. “Thank you darlin"

“We are gathered here today to honour this to two people in the holy spirit of marriage” the entire guest hold sat quiet as the priest where speaking. Hannah, Tina, Tina’s boyfriend Tommy, Jo, Jon and Paul tried to sit still but they where to exited to see two of their best mates give each other their hand. “Sit still Paul, if you make a fuzz now the whole church will stare at you, and Rachel will be pissed off!” Hannah pinched Paul’s arm as she was trying to be as quiet as possible.

“Do you Rachel Lauren Stevens love and honour Bradley John McIntosh for the rest of your life, for better for worse, in sickness and health. Do you take him as your husband?” The priest spoke up now, so the six muffins on the front row could hear what Rachel where about to say. “Yes I Do!” said Rachel and looked in to Bradley’s big brown eyes. “Do you Bradley John McIntosh love and honour Rachel Lauren Stevens for the rest of your life, for better for worse, in sickness and health. Do you take her as your wife?” Rachel just stared at him and smiled her huge smile. “Yes I Do!” Bradley shouted. “Can I kiss her now?” the priest laughed and said, “ I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss the bride” Bradley grabbed his wife and gave her a wet kiss. Rachel blushed, “you couldn’t wait could you?” “No doll I couldn’t”.

Finally out of the church to greet the guests. “Congratulations!!” people shouted, even a few S Club fans where on the church stairs to see the big event. “You are such a beautiful couple, no please can you to get finish snogging and get in the car so we can have a party?” Jon who held Jo’s hand where starting to get the party feeling and wanted to get Brad and Rach so fast in the car so he could get some food and drinks. “Please Jon, give them some time to feel newly weds. I mean we got all the time in the world when we got married you remember” Jo kissed Jon on the check and they started to walk towards their car.

“They look happy don’t they?” Jo and Jon stopped a 50metres from the church and watched them, “yes they do, but I got the prettiest bride, even though Rachel look stunning, you where more amazing than she is now. And you still are” Jon grabbed Jo and kissed her tenderly. Jo got tears in her eyes “ I can’t believe I married you, I got the most perfect husband in the world, now we are two married couples in S Club, and two more weddings to go” Jo unlocked the car and they got in. “We have to drop by at my mums house to get the present before we go to the party Jo, I sat it there so it wouldn’t be ruined on the way to church”

“There you are guys” Rachel came running towards Jo and Jon as they entered the huge ballroom Rachel and Bradley had rented for the wedding party. “Yeah here we are, we had to drop by my mums house to pick something up” The three friends walked towards the huge table that where set up for the meal.

Chapter 2

“Thanks for all the beautiful presents and I hope you all enjoyed the meal. I have to thank all of you for coming, specially Jo, Jon, Hannah, Tina and Paul, you guys mean the world to me and you have stood my me trough all ups and downs that I’ve had. You’re all wonderful people and I adore you all. And I have to thank my husband for showing up, without him I wouldn’t be standing here now. I hope you all will join us when we’re going to dance the bride and groom dance.”

The entire ballroom where cleaned for chars and tables so there’d be room for dancing. In stead the crew of the Hotel-Ballroom putted small benches up with tiny tables. Rachel and Bradley got on to the dance floor and started to dance. Not many minutes later the engaged couple Hannah and Paul joined them. ”Next time I’ll be dancing with you hunny, is when we’re getting married.” Paul swung his fiancée around and back in his arms again. Tina and Tommy who also had entered the dance floor bumped in to them. “Next time it’s you guys” Tina gave Hannah a smile, “yes it is. I can’t wait”

“Can I get this dance with my wife?” Jon came up to Jo and putted his arms around her stomach and his head on Jo’s shoulder. “’Course you can” Jo turned around to Jon and he lead her perfectly on to the other dance couples. “ I was thinking, in stead of driving home late tonight we can rent a hotel room?” Jon looked at Jo as he was asking. “Yes sure we can, I wasn’t in the mood for driving home anyway, and now I can taste the champagne to” Jo smiled and lied her head on Jon’s shoulder and closed her eyes.

As the dance where finished Jo and Jon joined the others on bench. The music where still playing and most of the guest where still on the dance floor. The night where still young. “Hannah, do you wanna dance with me?” Jon got up from the bench and bowed for Hannah “Sure my friend, let’s kick the other’s arse!” Jon and Hannah took the dance floor by storm. Rachel’s brother, Leigh who always had a crush on Jo finally got the courage to ask her for a dance, he walked over to her and bowed “Hi Jo-Jo, can you dance with the brides brother?” “Sure I can” Jo answered and got a long to the dance floor.

“I’ve always liked you Jo, you are one of the most cool and pretty girlfriend that Rachel has ever known” Leigh grabbed her a little bit harder around her waist. “Oh, thank you, I’ll take that as a compliment. I think you are a great guy. So how’s love going for you then Mr. Charming?” “Not so well, I’ve always wanted you, but now you’re married to Jon and I’ve lost the woman in my dreams” Leigh stopped dancing and just looked at Jo. “It’s something exiting about this hotel, come outside with me and I’ll show you.” He grabbed Jo’s arm and dragged her along. “Hey, not so fast Leigh, I’m wearing a dress!”

“See Jon, Jo is running away with Lee” Hannah pointed at Jo and Leigh. “Hm, well they’re probably going out to get some fresh air, it’s extremely hot in here, don’t you think?” Jon dried some sweat of his forehead. “We can pop outside for a minute to, let’s go” Hannah and Jon went to the same direction that Jo and Leigh where running to.

“What is the most amazing thing you’re going to show me?” Jo stopped and looked at Leigh. “Well if you close your eye and let me lead you. You’ll see” Jo closed her eyes and before she got them shut Leigh grabbed her and kissed her on the lips. Just in time for Jon and Hannah to see! “WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING JO?” Jon laid a hand on Jo’s shoulder and dragged her away from Leigh’s arms. “I have no idea Jon, I didn’t even know that he was going to kiss me!” Jo still in shock after the unexpected kiss tried to explain to Jon that it wasn’t meant to happen. “You didn’t know, even Hannah saw you and Leigh running off the dance floor and laughing. And now she saw the same as me, you two kissing” Jon let go of Jo and he went outside. “JON! Wait, please wait darlin’” Jo runned after him, she reached him and took his arm. Jon got himself free from Jo and he walked now even faster.

Chapter 3

“Please let me explain Jon, I didn’t kiss him” Jon stopped and turned to Jo, now he was about 2 metres away from her. “Didn’t kiss him. What did u do then? Did your lips just bump into his?” Jon where pretty upset, and he turned his back on Jo again. “Yes they sort of did, he said he was going to show me something. He told me to shut my eyes and suddenly I had his lips on my lips and then.. “ “And then I came and you couldn’t kiss him anymore!” Jon interrupted, “No that’s not true baby, I would never kiss him I love you” Jo started to cry. “I’m not talking to you Jo, I’m going inside again, and it’s Rachel’s wedding and I’m enjoying that. I’m going to order separate rooms for us and then when we come home you can pack your bags” Jon went inside again and left Jo outside, crying.

“Where’s Jo? I’m dying to talk to her” As Jon came in the room Rachel came towards him. “She’s outside” Jon answered her shortly but Rachel didn’t notice it. “Thanks I’ll find her”. Rachel walked to the hotel garden and she found Jo sitting on a bench in tears. “Gee Jo, what’s wrong darlin’?” Rachel sat down and took the shaking Jo in her arms. “Jo please tell me, I’m here for you” Jo where just held harder around Rachel “I can’t tell you Rachel, I have to go home, I don’t wanna ruined your wedding.” Jo stopped crying a bit. “Babe, you’re not ruining my wedding, just tell me what’s wrong.” Jo explained everything to Rachel, she got upset and she stood quickly up from the bench. “I’m going to kill Leigh, I can’t believe he did that!” “No don’t, I’ve lost Jon but I don’t wanna course a bad relationship between you and your brother. I’m going to pack when I come home and I’ll leave Jon alone. Maybe I shall leave S Club as well”. Jo dried her tears and went back to the wedding party with Rachel. “No Jo, you have to fix things with Jon, please for my sake. I’ve seen you two being so happy and I’ve achieved the same happiness with Bradley. You and Jon are the ideal couple, if it hadn’t been for you guys me and Brad wouldn’t have this wonderful wedding today.”

“Jon, Hannah I’ve to talk to both of you, NOW!” Rachel interrupted Jon and Hannah as they where dancing. “I’ve just spoken to Jo, she’s out of her mind. She didn’t mean to kiss Leigh, he kissed her and I believe Jo. I’ve always known that Leigh’s been in love with Jo but I’d never thought he would do this. Please go talk to her Jon, she deserves to be heard. And Hannah you know Jo to, you know that she would never be unfaithful to Jon.” ”Yeah I know, ok Jon give her a chance”. Hannah hugged Rachel and both of them went up to Leigh as Jon where heading for Jo.

As Leigh saw Rachel and Hannah he tried to escape. “Stop there little brother, I have a few opinions to share with you!” Leigh stopped and he was shaking as hell. “I I I’m so sorry, I’d never meant to do that I just got caught by the moment. I can’t resist Jo I love her.” ”get out of my sight Leigh. But first you have to apologize to Hannah, Jon and Jo” Rachel took his hand and pulled him along with her. But they reached Jo and Jon’s hotel room they stopped. “I think we’ll wait until the morning. They need some space” Hannah stopped at the door and they went away

Chapter 4

“My feelings for you now Jo is… I don’t know what I feel. I’d never though you would kiss any other than me.” Jon where standing in front of Jo in the room. “I know Jon, but the truth is that I’d never would have kissed him. Never he told me to shut my eyes and he was going to show me something. Before I got to do something he kissed me. I didn’t kiss him back. I’m just so relived that you and Hannah showed up, but I’d never expected that reaction. I’m so sorry if it looked like I kissed him back but I swear on my grandmother’s grave that I didn’t kiss him. I love you Jon, NO other” Jo took Jon’s hands and held them. “I promised to stay with you for better and for worse when I married you, it matters to me to make a promise like that.” Jon took a better grip around Jo’s hands, unexpected for Jo. “Look me in the eye Jo, tell me that you love me and that you don’t have feelings for Leigh” Jo looked in Jon’s eyes “Jon I love you with all my heart, I wouldn’t married you if I didn’t. I have no feelings for Leigh at all. He’s my friend you have to accept that ‘cos he’s Rachel’s brother, but I have not loving feelings for him what so ever. I have the one I love and I attend to have him as long as I’m alive” Jon hugged Jo and he started to cry

“There you are, we where starting to get worried.” Tina’s smile met Jo and Jon as they came back to the wedding reception. “Yeah, well the champagne took us by surprise” Jon said and they all laughed. The music played again and it played Bryan Adams with “Please Forgive Me”. “can I have this dance Jon?” Jo took her hands around Jon’s neck and looked him deeply in his eyes. “Yes you can” They went to the dance floor where they met Rachel and Bradley along with the rest of the S Club gang. “Hi guys it’s nice to see you again. Let’s have fun now and put the bad happening behind us. I’m dancing with my bride now and please do not disturb” Bradley blinked at Jo and Jon.

”Do you hear the lyrics in this song Jon? Listen carefully and I’ll tell you now, the word is from me. Please forgive me I know not what I do, please forgive I can’t stop loving you, Don’t deny me, This Pain I’m going trough, Please forgive I can’t stop loving you, babe believe me every word I say it’s true, Please forgive me ‘cos I need you like I do, please forgive me I can’t stop loving You” Jo kissed Jon and she saw a tear coming from Jon’s eye. “I love you Jo, I always will”.

The End
