Several days later....

"Are you nervous?" Alisha asked BJ.

"A little," BJ admitted, looking at her herself in the mirror dressed in her wedding gown. "I'm just afraid I'll say something wrong or trip while I'm walking down the aisle."

"Don't worry about anything," VJ said, dressed in her maid of honor dress.

They were in the backroom of the church. Outside was everyone else, waiting for the wedding to start. AJ and Howie were standing at the front of the church. Brian, Kevin, Nick, and Nicky were sitting in the front pews. Maria, Alexis, Carson, Marisa, her boyfriend, Leighanne, the Backstreet Band members, the crew, and a few select others were waiting for the ceremony to start. So there was close to a hundred people there. A bigger turn out than they expected.

AJ and BJ had both made one last attempt to reconcile with their parents and get them to come to the wedding, but it didn't work. BJ cried for half the plane ride to Las Vegas with AJ sitting solemnly beside her, trying to comfort her. But as soon as they reached Vegas, their excitement took over. They checked into their hotel, with AJ and BJ taking the "Honeymoon Suite".

Now it was just moments before AJ and BJ were to begin their life together as man and wife. Since BJ's father wasn't there to give the bride away, Tommy Smith, the keyboard player for the band, offered to walk her down the aisle. Angie had helped BJ look for her wedding dress since BJ's mother wasn't there to do it. There was a knock and Angie walked in through the door.

"Everything's set. Are you ready, BJ?" she asked.

"As ready as I'll ever be," BJ said. She took a deep breath.

"Well, I guess I better go take my seat," said Alisha. "BJ, you look beautiful. I hope you and AJ are very happy together."

Alisha and BJ hugged and tears started coming. VJ and Angie couldn't let them cry alone. Soon, it was a four-way hug. Then there was another knock at the door. Angie went to answer it and in walked Tommy.

"Come on, girl," he said, with a huge smile on his face. "It's time to make that guy standing at the front of the church a very lucky man."

"Tommy, I really appreciate you doing this for us," BJ told him.

"Anything for my favorite woman." He gave BJ a brief hug.

Alisha went to join Nick and Nicky in the front pew. The music started and the doors opened at the back of the church. Everyone turned around to look. VJ walked gracefully down the aisle and soon after, BJ walked down the aisle on the arm of Tommy.

As soon as BJ saw AJ smiling, waiting for her at the front of the church, all her fear and nervousness went away. AJ was mesmorized, watching BJ walk down the aisle, in her beautiful wedding gown, and thought she was the most gorgeous thing he'd ever seen and felt extremely lucky to be the one to marry her.

AJ took BJ's hand as she joined him at the front of the church. Everyone looked on as the ceremony was performed, smiling. Except Leighanne, who was watching Brian watch VJ at the front of the church. I wonder if there's any way to get that magic me and Brian had back, she thought. Well, that's what I'm here for. Brian can help me in more ways than one. With that last thought, she smiled.

Everyone listened closely as AJ and BJ exchanged vows:

"Alexander, repeat after me," the priest said. "I, Alexander James...."

"I, Alexander James...." AJ said clearly, for all to hear.

"Take you, Brianna Elise...."

"Take you, Brianna Elise...." AJ smiled down at BJ.

"To be my lawful wedded wife...."

"To be my lawful wedded wife...."

"I promise to be faithful to you...."

"I promise to be faithful to you...."

"For richer or for poorer...."

"For richer or for poorer...."

"In sickness and in health...."

"In sickness and in health...." AJ actually started tearing up.

" 'Til death do us part," the priest finished.

" 'Til death do us part," AJ said, then sighed.

"Now, Brianna, repeat after me," the priest said, looking at BJ with a smile. "I, Brianna Elise...."

"I, Brianna Elise...." BJ started tearing up right away.

"Take you, Alexander James...." the priest continued.

"Take you, Alexander James...."

"To be my lawful wedded husband...."

"To be my lawful wedded husband...."

"I promise to be faithful to you...."

"I promise to be faithful to you...."

"For richer or for poorer...."

"For richer or for poorer...."

"In sickness and in health...."

"In sickness and in health...."

" 'Til death do us part," the priest finished.

" 'Til death do us part," Brian finished with a bright smile through her tears.

"By the power invested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife." The priest smiled at AJ and BJ. "You may now kiss...."

AJ grabbed BJ and kissed her. Everyone started laughing and took pictures.

"....the bride," the priest finished, laughing. When AJ and BJ finally ended the kiss, he turned to the people in the church. "It's my pleasure to introduce to you for the first time, Mr. and Mrs. Alexander James McLean."

The whole place erupted with applause as the couple walked down the aisle, with VJ and Howie following behind. They got into the limo and headed towards the hotel where they rented out the ballroom. It was open invitation to the reception. AJ and BJ wanted to include everyone at the hotel in their happiness, so they sent an invitation to everyone in the hotel. It was pretty crowded by the time the people who attended the wedding showed up in their black and white limos.

Soon, the reception was in full swing. Everyone was dancing, drinking, eating, getting to know each other better. Marisa came up to the newly-weds with her boyfriend and congratulated them. Sitting at the head table with AJ and BJ was VJ and Brian; Howie and Maria; Kevin and Alexis; and Nick, Alisha, and Nicky. Neither AJ or BJ knew what the song was for their first dance as husband and wife until it came time for the dance.

Howie got up and walked over to the DJ, told him it was time for the first dance and told him what song to put on. The DJ announced to everyone it was time for the couple's first dance and everyone cleared the dance floor.

"This one is for the newly-weds," the DJ said. "I'll Be Loving You Forever" by the New Kids On The Block started playing. AJ and BJ looked at the DJ like he was crazy. "Oops. Sorry, wrong song." Everyone started laughing. Then he put on the actual song and AJ took BJ in his arms:

Everyone applauded as the song ended. AJ and BJ shared a kiss and the picture flashes went off, as they did throughout the whole dance. Then other couples joined them on the dance floor for another slow song. Brian led VJ onto the dance floor and put his arms around her waist tightly. He knew that Leighanne had been watching him the whole time she was there and he wanted to show her that he was committed to VJ. VJ also knew that Leighanne was watching Brian. She did everything she could to send out the signal that they were together and there was nothing she could do about it. But VJ didn't know that she had a big surprise coming to her and Leighanne would be the one to help make it happen.
