“Oh no!” Laughter burst out of her at the joke, not so much for the humor however. “You’re really hitting me with a dad joke this early in the afternoon. Okay. Okay.” She pulled the baseball cap lower, trying not to appear to self-conscious. “I was, um, well it’s an old family recipe. My mom used to make it all the time when she needed to focus, or she needed more energy. I thought I remembered it perfectly. Obviously -” She gestured to her green stained cheeks.

Vince’s lips tugged into a sheepish grin at her laughter, “I am! Mostly because my son’s too young to appreciate them just yet. Come on, dad jokes are the best!” He mused. By the time she explained herself, he clicked the roof of his mouth with a nod, “You know, most people usually grab an energy drink or eat granola bars to get more pep in their step. But I also get being a fan of tradition and old family recipes. I’m sure it’ll go away soon -- again, I’m sorry for staring. It’s just not every day you see green-folk but than again, we live in a pretty interesting town.”

Having honeymooned all over the world, as they returned back to Hollow Grove, Vincent could honestly say he missed the town. After all, it was home. Hollow Grove was unique in its own way and as he was out and about, he didn’t expect to run into someone with a slightly green face. It made him subconsciously scratch his own face. As she addressed him, he gives a sympathetic expression, completely apologetic for staring. “I’m a firm believer that it’s okay to make mistakes. And I promise, it doesn’t look that bad. I was just a little concerned there because it looks like either you’re feeling nauseous or you’re turning into a zombie.” He teased before shrugging, “Sorry, bad joke. But really, what were you trying to do with the potion?” 

She hadn’t wanted to go out, not when she was still trying to scrub off the last bits of her potions mishap off her face, but with her phone charger misplaced the previous evening she desperately needed another. She was just walking out of the store when she caught someone’s eyes on her. “Yep, soak it in,” she said with a sigh. “Obviously my potion work sucks.”

Vincent Nygaard was a married man. And the beaming expression on his face never seemed to falter throughout the day and into the night. As his beautiful bride was dancing with her eldest brother, Vincent took the time to be with their guest and accept congratulations personally and give his gratitude to everyone who could make it there for their joyous occasion. So as he spotted his old friend dressed in the blue tux of their wedding colors, “Johnny boy!” He mused fondly to his groomsman as he reached for a friendly handshake before bringing the man in for a short embrace. With a pat on the back before pulling away as one of the waitstaff offered him a glass of champagne, he accepted with a sip as people cheered nearby. "One hell of a party, yeah?” He said before raising his glass and voice slightly given the commotion of everything around them before moving to somewhere slightly quieter, “So I couldn’t help but to notice who you brought with you.” Emma Sawyer was a friend of his since coming to Hollow Grove. And while he believed completely in the power of platonic relationships, in the midst of his wedding reception, he couldn’t help but to tease. “You and Emma, huh? I gotta say, I’m here for it.” He said with a nudge accompanied by a cheeky grin wondering if there was more to the story. @jchnathanknight

Johnathan couldn’t help but allow his own grin to widen some. With ridiculous, on-going family drama, everything else happening amongst that particular tension,  he couldn’t remember the last time something like that had been directed to him. Of course, it took the presence of a true friend such as Vince to certainly make trials and tribulations not seem impossible, and the bond remained that way since New York. Jonathan had no idea how he’d gotten that lucky of a friendship, but wouldn’t take it for granted in an eternity. “Definitely not even close to the worst. Alright, yes, I haven’t had the ones in New York for a while, but these, these are incredible regardless. Truce.” He held up his hand, already reaching for another before lunch was served, although before he could so as Vince went on to answer his question in waiting, Johnathan felt himself freeze in place, hand falling slack once more, jaw going slightly agape at the offer. Not only was his friend getting married, but to bestow this crucial responsibility upon him? It meant the world. “You — You’re serious? I mean, yes, yes, It’d be my absolute honor to be one of your groomsmen.” A light laugh elicited from him, shaking his head out of the beyond grateful shock. 

“I miss that little pastry shop quite a bit so I’m glad these could measure up.” New York City, through his the last century was a returning point. It was a different atmosphere than their Massachusetts's safehaven. He loved the city, as loud and boisterous it could be but he was glad that no matter where the two men were -- memories and laughs could be shared. So as he proposed for John to join him on his special day, he chuckled warmly. “I am.” He stated firmly to show just how serious he was. And when the other vampire accepted, he moved to embrace the other to show his appreciation in his favorite way, “This means so much to me, John. Thank you so much.” As Vincent pulled away, he gestured to the dining room table, “Please, sit. I’ll get lunch going and you can tell me what you’ve been up to.” With a warm smile on his expression as his gaze flickered to the tail wagging puppy to a friend who just honored him -- Vincent honestly couldn’t wait to get married to the love of his life with the people who continued to paint his eternity with so much color, kindness and adventure. 

FINISHED.

Hearing him speak she rested her head against the door and she ached to touch him, to let him wrap his arms around her and tell her everything was going to be okay. Right now it just didn’t feel possible. It felt like everything was falling apart like fate was once more keeping them from their happily ever after. All she wanted to do was break down in tears as memories of standing at the edge of that small stadium watching Rowan beat Vince in that final battle, of seeing him for the very last time before she married the other man. Her heart ached at the very idea that today they might not get what they’d waited all these years for. It was completely irrational, a part of her mind knew that but she couldn’t shake the sinking feeling in her stomach.

Stepping back from the door as he announced himself, her muddied wedding dress was draped over the chair of the bridal suite and she stood there in the middle of the suite dressed only her white slip as he entered and she was ready to protest until she saw his eyes covered and she breathed a sigh of relief that came out a little shaky and riddled with emotions. When he finds hers in rests her hand against the side of his strong face and lets his words wash over her trying to let them calm her. “It’s just.. its just…”Sophia stumbled over the words and she could feel the tears at the corner of her eyes. Taking a deep breath she reached up to pull the fabric from his eyes. She wanted to see those blue eyes that gave her so much comfort. “I just want to marry you, Vincent Nygaard, and I just wanted everything to be perfect and nothing is going right,” Sophia said with another heavy sigh as she looked towards her ruined dress now. “Why is fate always trying to ruin this for us? Why can’t things just go right for once.” She vented through her tears as she looked up at him with a defeated expression.

To look back to the beginning of their millennium, it really did seem the universe was hell bent in keeping the pair of them apart. Between her father, Rowan, the loss of their child, becoming a vampire and walking away from each other, there were times where Vincent wondered if they could’ve tried harder to make it work back then. Perhaps he could’ve convinced her father to let them marry, be a higher standing man in Viking society than the son of a widow who had refused to marry again, perhaps he could’ve killed killed Rowan in combat and ended their troubles there, or even prevented their village from being pillaged, that somehow he could’ve found a way to prevent the witches from picking the Greysons for the spell so that perhaps their child could’ve been born or did what he could to stay a werewolf -- he went through all the scenarios. But had any of those things not happened, they wouldn’t be here right now either. Because somehow, the universe had brought them together too. That he was blessed with the particular privilege of loving someone so deeply that he refused to go another thousand years without her. These last two years in Hollow Grove had reminded him that he never loved anyone the way he loved Sophia Greyson. And instead of looking at the past, he knew they needed to look to their future because nothing else mattered but that they were together now. And for that reason, he knew the rain didn’t bother him much. It wouldn’t stand in the way of marrying this woman today. 

But he hated the idea of Sophia shedding tears over the mess it had left. As he neared her with his blindfold, there was nothing like just being in the same room with her, being able to touch her that calmed his heart. She had always given him strength and he would stand by her through anything. He knew they had their traditional ways and so, it surprises him when she pulled off his makeshift blindfold and his eyes fell on her blue hues, his lips twitched into a soft smile. Even without her dress as she stood in her white slip, he was in awe of how beautiful she was. God, he was so lucky. His eyes flickered over to the stained wedding dress as he sighed. As Vincent listened to her, he stepped closer, hands on the side of her face. “I could marry you a thousand times over, Sophia.” He murmured softly as he spoke with the truest of veracity. They’d probably be the type to renew their vows every decade. “But we just have to get through this one. And I know, it’s not what we were expecting. I know it might seem like someone is giving us a hard time but hey look at me,” He caressed her cheek before pressing a kiss against her forehead, “This is nothing we can’t handle, my love. If it’s anything I have to believe, we can go against fate.” Something caught his attention in the corner of his eye and he pulled away briefly, with scissors in hand, without another second -- he snipped off the end of his tie. “But if fate wants us to go down the isle looking a little messy then so be it. So long as I have you -- so long as by the end of the day, I get to call you my wife, my beautiful, gorgeous and brilliant as all else wife, nothing else matters. What do you say?” He said with grin.

Hope. Sophia had been beyond hopeful for this day. Everything had come together so easily and things had quieted down on the Clave front that Sophia thought maybe, just maybe, they would be able to enjoy this special day with no hiccups. Given their luck, however, she shouldn’t have been so hopeful, honestly, she should have been prepared for this. The store came out of nowhere, they had been out on the grounds taking pictures before doing any first look pictures when the clouds grew dark and the sky opened up and pour downed on them. From there, things had only gone downhill. In a panic to escape the rain, they had run for cover only to find some of the grassy areas had flooded and gotten muddy rather quickly. 

It wasn’t until they reached the main house that things took a terrible turn, they had thought they’d escaped the ran but when Lola came running into the house covered in mud one fateful shake left Sophia’s white dress splattered in mud. For a moment she stood there in shock staring down at the dress and then suddenly she was struck with the realization, she couldn’t get married without a dress. At that point, her meltdown came and she found herself standing in a muddied dress unable to find a solution. Her tear stained face had caused her makeup to run and at this point, she wasn’t sure how she was going to get married today.  Hearing the knock at the door her eyes grew wide as she hears Vince’s voice. Sniffling she tried to wipe at her eyes and regain her composure as she moved to the door. Clearing her throat, she pressed her hand against the door. “I’m okay,” her voice came quietly but it lacked the confidence needed to be convincing. “You shouldn’t be here, it’s bad luck.” She said meekly and she could feel her hands shaking as tried to get some kind of composure but the truth was she was breaking down.

Sometimes it was expectation that brought upon disappointment. Because he knew them and how they both wanted today to be absolutely perfect. Placing meaning into every aspect of their wedding to represent what they wanted their marriage to be -- the venue was at the estate of the family he was joining who he would now consider home. Vince asked that his ring be fashioned to be his new daylight ring because to him Sophia would always be his light and every single person that mattered to them in the length of centuries was invited. They had hoped and prayed and sometimes when things didn’t go the way they planned, it was hard to not be upset about it. And for that reason, the vampire knew the only place he wanted to be was near her regardless if it was only one hour away from their ceremony. As she answered him through the door, his lips tugged into a slight smile. ”I just had to hear your voice.” He returned softly with a chuckle. “That and it’s bad luck to see you but I haven’t yet so I think we’re okay.” Vince teased lightly. Nevertheless, he knew Sophia like he knew his own soul, he didn’t have to see her to understand that she was on the brink of having a nervous breakdown. 

And for that reason, he doesn’t hesitate to say, “Sophia, I’m going to be right back.” Moving away to go to the other rooms he doesn’t come back until he found something to cover his eyes with. Tying a knot in the back before securing it properly, Vincent knocked again. “I’m coming in. I’m not looking, I swear my eyes are closed.” He promised, jiggling the door knob before slowly entering. Without his sight, he could use his other senses to realize Sophia was there as he breathed out softly. “My love, you look beautiful.” Vincent declared although there was no way his blindfold would allow him to sneak a peak of his wife to be. Attempting to find her in the room, when he did, he placed his hands on the sides of her shoulders, rubbing them slightly to give her some reassurance. “And I don’t have to see you to know that.” He said before shaking his head, “Soph, I know things might seem a little rocky but it’s just rain. And I know, I know we planned an outdoor wedding but inside is just as good. Everyone’s here, no one’s been struck by lightening as far as we know.  As for the dress --” He sighed before offering her a sincere smile, “Darling, you say the word and I will go outside right now and roll around in the mud.” He attempted a joke in hopes to hear her laugh. Partners, equals, best friends -- to him, they were always going to be that. Moving to hold her soft hands in his, “We could be married in plastic bags and it wouldn’t matter to me. Or in our old furs with some goat sacrifice waiting for us like the Vikings we are. All that matters is that despite this, I still feel like the luckiest man in the world getting to see you walk down the isle today. We’ve waited a thousand years for this. Everything else be damned.” He declared proudly, a hand finding the side of her cheek before brushing it lightly, “You know that, right?”

TO ME, LOVE IS YOU. VINCOPHIA WEDDING DAY

Today was the day. After all the planning and consideration that went into it, Vincent Nygaard was getting married to the love of his life. A thousand years had stood in their way but he couldn’t go another day without being the husband of the woman who brought so much color into his life. And he had prayed nothing bad would go wrong, that for one day -- everything could go smoothly for the wedding. So it was just their luck when their clear blue skies forecast suddenly changed dramatically. He’d been inside the Manor with one of the photographers taking pictures with Max and his groomsmen when the unforgettable sound of lightening struck. Wind followed and it seemed like a chaos broke loose outside. 

But it was just rain, the optimist in him said -- everyone that mattered to them was there and if need be, he didn’t mind an inside ceremony. But when the news that Sophia’s dress was ruined caught his attention, he found his way to where she had gotten ready earlier with her bride’s maids. He knew Soph and he knew that some of their biggest occasions were offset by the world making things hard for them. Vince wanted to reassure her even though he knew tradition said he couldn’t see the bride before the ceremony. So spotting her sister in the hallway, the other blonde paused to address him. “Vincent, hey. Maybe you can talk to her and calm her down but let me go see who the Hell’s going to work their magic so that we do have a wedding today.” Dara said before hurrying off. As he moved forward to rap his knuckles against the door firmly, “Soph -- honey? Hey, it’s me.” He said softly, “Are you okay? I heard what happened.” @sophiagreyson
