Starting A New
The Big Day.
Jenna's Outfit.
"Okay guys, I'm going to miss you guys so much. I don't know when the next time we are going to see each other is going to be." Jenna said as she was in the middle of a huge band member hug, with Black Veil Brides, Of Mice & Men, and Pierce The Veil.
The boys all left the hug at the same time.
"Did you forget that you are having a wedding in a few days?" Austin said with a smirk.
"Oh my gosh! I totally forgot about that!" Jenna said shocked.
"Wow, thanks babe, love ya too." Jack said with a chuckle.
"Sorry love." Jenna replied with a smile and wink.
"Well, you will see us there." Andy spoke up.
"I better, and if one of you are not there, I will leave Jack at the alter, fly to where you are, and slap you. Get it? Got it? Good." Jenna said with a huge smile.
"Don't worry, we will all be there/" Vic said pulling Jenna in for another hug.
"Okay, hate to break up the love fest, but Jack, Jen, Baltimore awaits!" Alex said popping his head out of the bus door.
"Okay, okay, we're coming!" Jenna said laughing.
"Bye guys." Jenna and Jack said at the same time.
They walked onto the bus being followed by a lot of "Bye's".
Once the got in the front lounge Jenna took off her shoes.
"Well, I don't know about you motherfuckers, but I plan on sleeping the whole ride to Baltimore, so...Night!" Jenna said with a smile and walked to the bunk area.
"I think I'm just going to go lay down for a little bit..." Jack said slowly walking past Alex, Rian, and Zack.
"Bull shit, you just want to cuddle with Jenna." Rian said laughing.
"Yeah, you're right. Later guys." Jack said smirking and walking to the bunk area.

"MAYA! ASHLEY!" Jenna yelled as she ran over to the pink-haired girl holding the young child.
"JENNA!!!" Maya yelled back as she put Ashley down.
"Ahh! I have missed you so much!!" Jenna said as she pulled Maya in for a huge hug.
"I have missed you too!" Maya replied hugging Jenna back.
"Whoa now, let me hug my girlfriend." Alex said standing next to them.
"Fuck you Gaskarth, she's mine. Go get your daughter." Jenna said pulling Maya closer to her.
Making Maya laugh.
"Well fine, she's cuter than both of you anyways." Alex said as he was smirking and walked over to get Ashley.
"Hey baby girl!" Alex said as he picked her up and kissed her cheek.
"Daddy!" Ashley said and put her little arms around his neck and hugged him.
"Okay Lexy, give me my child. You go to your girlfriend." Jenna said taking Ashley from his arms.
"Last time I checked, she was mine and Maya's child." Alex said with a smile.
"Last time I checked, I stole Maya and Ashley from you." Jenna winked at him.
"Whatever." Alex laughed and went over to Maya and hugged her.
"Hey baby, I have missed you." Alex said placing a kiss on her lips.
"I have missed you too." Maya said kissing him back.
The group all went to the living room and hung out for two hours before Maya spoke up.
"Okay, Alex, you are on babysitting job. Make sure you watch over Ashley, Zack, and Jack. Mostly Jack."
"Rian, make sure you babysit Alex while we are gone." Maya said.
"Wait, where are we going?" Jenna asked standing up.
"To go pick out your dress! Duh!" Maya said with a huge smile.
"Oh yay!" Jenna jumped up and down like a little kid.
"I already got little Ash's dress while you guys were still on tour, and Cass, Kate, and I all got our dresses as well. We knew you wanted to have a little bit of black in the wedding, so we all got the same little black bridesmaid dresses. I'll show you later." Maya said pulling Jenna's hand to the door.
"Bye boys! Jack! Behave!" Jenna shouted.
"I'll try my best!" Jack shouted back, making both Jenna and Maya laugh.

"You look so beautiful Jenna. Today is going to be the best day of your life, unless you have children. Then it will be your second best day of your life." Maya said as she finished up Jenna's makeup.
"Thank you so much Maya, you are truly my best friend." Jenna said standing up and hugging Maya.
"Don't let and tears fall girl, don't want to mess up that master piece I did on your face." Maya said with a laugh.
"I just wish my Mom was here...you know, we had that falling out after I told her I was moving to Baltimore..haven't talked to her since...I just wish we could move past all the drama and just be a family again." Jenna said looking down.
They heard a knock on the door.
"Hold on just a minute Jen." Maya said going to the door with a smirk on her face.
"Oh! You made it! Come on in!" Maya said happily.
"Who is-" Jenna started then stared in shock. "Mom?"
"Hi sweetheart." Jenna's Mom said as she entered the room and stood next to Maya.
"What are you doing here?" Jenna asked confused.
"You really think I would miss my only daughters wedding?"
"...Yes" Jenna said slowly.
"Well, you thought wrong. Oh, and I hope you don't mind, I brought someone with me who has been dying to see you for years."
"Who?" Jenna said standing up and walking over to her Mom.
"Come on in sweetie." Jenna's Mom said as she opened the door back up and let someone in.
"You look rather beautiful Jenna." The man said.
"Oh my gosh..." Maya said with wide eyes.
Jenna stood in shock.
"Um...Hi, I'm Cass. A friend of Jenna's and the girlfriend of Rian." Cass said holding out her hand to Jenna's Mom.
"Hello there, I'm Maggie." Jenna's Mom replied with a smile and shaking Cass' hand.
"Well, do I get a hello? Or are you just going to stare at me the whole day?" The man asked Jenna with a smile.
"Jason....wha...what?" Jenna stuttered out.
"Who is Jason?" Cass asked confused.
"My...brother..." Jenna said confused still.
"I don't know you had a brother, did the boys know?" Cass asked confused as well now.
"No...I haven't seen my brother in 15 years..." Jenna said still looking at him.
"What? How not?"
"He left when I was young...moved all the way to Britain." Jenna said with less of a stutter this time.
"Oh..well...looks like Jack has to meet someone then." Cass said with a smile.
"Holy shit.." Maya said. "Jason..It's...been forever..."
"Hello Maya. Looks like you both grew up to be beautiful women." Jason said with a smile.
Jenna walked over to Jason and fell into his embrace.
"Hey little sis." Jason chuckled hugging Jenna.
"Of all days to come back to me....you pick 15 years later?" Jenna asked pulling away from him.
"Better than never right?" He asked her.
"I guess that's true..."
"Well, before we start this wedding, I think it's only right Jack meets his brides brother, and see's her mother one more time before they make it official." Maya said speaking up with a smile.
"Ah, the famous Jack Barakat. Would love to meet him. The other members of All Time Low as well. Pretty big fan of their music. How did you land someone as hot as Jack, Jenna?" Jason asked with a smirk.
"Ah, still as gay as ever I see?" Jenna laughed.
"Oh you know it girl. I would make a move on Zack, he was always my favorite. But, I am happily married to my husband Nate." Jason said proudly.
"Is he here? Do I get to meet him?" Jenna questioned quickly.
"You will meet him after the wedding." Jason said with a smile. "But first, I must meet the one who wants to take my baby sisters hand in marriage. Care to show me Maya?"
"I would love to. Just follow me you two." Maya said leading Jason and Maggie out of the room to find the dressing room of the boys.

Jack was standing at the alter. Awaiting the arrival of his beautiful bride.
The room was quite.
The first people to walk down are Zack and Kate.
Then Rian and Cass.
Then the best man and maid of honor, Alex and Maya.
Little Ashley followed Maya and Alex throwing little flower pedals as she goes.
The music started. The crowd stood up.
The big doors opened and slowly walked out Jenna, with Jack's father, Bassam, leading the way.
Jenna and Jack made eye contact.
Jenna saw Jack was tearing up.
"She's so beautiful." Jack whispered to Alex.
"She really is. And she's all yours man." Alex said patting Jack on the back with a smile.
Hearing those words made Jack have the biggest smile on his face.
Jenna and Bassam arrived at the alter, Bassam kissing Jenna on the cheek and letting her walk over to his son.
The crowd all sat down when Jack took Jenna's hand as they were standing at the alter.
"We are gathered here today, to witness the joining of two people." The Preacher started.
"Love is the reason we are here. In marriage we not only say, "I love you today", but also, "I promise to love you for all of our tomorrows."
Jack and Jenna, in the days ahead of you, there will be stormy times and good times, times of conflict and times of joy. I ask you to remember this advice:
Never go to bed angry.
Let your love be stronger than your anger.
Learn the wisdom of compromise, for it is better to bend than to break.
Believe the best of your beloved rather than the worst.
Confide in your partner and ask for help when you need it.
Remember that true friendship is the basis for any lasting relationship.
Give your spouse the same courtesies and kindnesses you bestow on your friends.
Say "I love you" every day." The Preacher continued.
Jack and Jenna did their vows to each other, short and sweet, full of love and hope.
"Jack and Jenna, I remind you that marriage is a precious gift, a lifelong commitment, and a challenge to love one another more completely each and every day.
Please join hands and look into each other's eyes.
Jack, with this understanding, do you take Jenna to be your wedded wife to live together in marriage? Do you promise to love her, comfort her, honor and keep her for better for worse, for richer for poorer, in sickness and in health, forsaking all others and to be faithful only to her, so long as you both shall live?
"I do." Jack said with a smile.
"Jenna, with this understanding, do you take Jack to be your wedded husband, to live together in marriage? Do you promise to love him, comfort him, honor and keep him, for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, forsaking all others and to be faithful only to him, so long as you both shall live?"
"I do." Jenna replied looking in Jack's eyes.
"Jack and Jenna, you have consented together in holy matrimony before God, have pledged your vows to each other, and have exchanged rings as tokens of your love and commitment to each other. In accordance, with the authority of God's Word, and with great joy, I now pronounce you husband and wife."
"You may seal your vows with a kiss!" The preacher ended.
Jack and Jenna leaned in together and placed a passion filled kiss on each others lips.
The crowd cheered and clapped.
"Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Jack Barakat!"
Jack and Jenna pulled away from the kiss and smile at each other as they made their way down the aisle.
To start their new life together. And forever.
"Okay guys, I'm going to miss you guys so much. I don't know when the next time we are going to see each other is going to be." Jenna said as she was in the middle of a huge band member hug, with Black Veil Brides, Of Mice & Men, and Pierce The Veil.
