“Finney, you need to calm down. It going to be amazing and you look fantastic!” Bruce said as he fixed Finn’s tie. “Are you sure? It’s not too much?” Bruce shook his head. “Not at all.”
“FINN!! Look! Look!” Griffin runs into the room wearing a grey and lavender suit- in which he persisted in wearing- he does a little spin showing it off. “Oh, griff. You look amazing, Love.” He said, walking over and giving the young kid a hug.
“I have your basket and petals on the sink in the bathroom, if you want to grab them.” He pointed towards the bathroom. Griffin squealed and ran towards the bathroom.
There was a knock at the door. “Door’s open!” Finney yelled from across the room, while making his way back to Bruce. The door opened, then closed. “Well, in my life, I’ve never thought of seeing Finney Blake wearing a veil with a suit!” Gwen said.
“GWEN?! I thought you weren’t coming!” He said running over and hugging her. “Yea, well I made some adjustments to my schedule. Yknow I couldn’t miss my brother’s wedding.” She pressed their foreheads together.
“Thank you for coming, Gwenny…” “Of course, Big Brother.” She brought him into another hug. When they pulled away, Finn put his hands on her shoulders. “So I know it’s kind of…late…but I wanted to ask you something…” He stepped back a little and grabbed a bouquet of flowers. Some of Gwen’s favorites mixed in.
“I was gonna ask you way earlier, but when you told me you wouldn’t be attending, I kind of just held onto these, so…” Finn stepped infront of her.
“Gwen, would you be my maid of honor?” He held out the flowers to her. “I don’t think that’s what you would call it, but yes! Is that even a question!” She brought him into an another hug, tears in her eyes.
Once they pulled away, Finn turned to Bruce. “She’s all yours, Bru.” Bruce smiled and nodded to him.

“Robin, you need to chill the fuck out, Alright?! You’re freaking me the fuck out because you’re freaking out!” Vance said as he shook Robin’s shoulders. Billy laughing behind them. “HEY!- DONT LAUG- AHHHH!” Robin yelled as he slipped.
“Bro. That’s probably the MOST embarrassing thing you could have done on your wedding day.” Vance said while holding in his laugh. “Oh! Oh! I am so sorry, sir! It seems that my feet just a mind of their own!” Robin said in a British accent.
“Oh my god- shut the fuck up.” Billy extended his hand to help Robin, pulling his up. “Cmon, Griffin should be around here somewhere. Can’t leave that bugger alone for a second.” Robin laughed at that. “You can’t blame him. He’s only a little kid.” “More like a fucking demon.” Vance shuttered at the thought.
“ROB!” Robin turned towards the voice, kneeling down. “What’s up, Hombrecillo!” He said bringing the young boy into a hug. “Look! Finn gave me the basket!” Griffin lifted up his basket that’s filled with white petals.
“Wow! Look at you! A professional flower boy, we got right here! Am I right, guys?” He looked towards Billy and Vance. “We very much do, good sir!” Billy spoke in a British accent, while crossing his hands behind his back and straightening his posture.
“Mmm. I’m not so sure about that.” Vance said. Looking down at the boy. “I think he’s missing something!” He put up his finger, signaling to give him a second and ran to back to the dressing room. A few seconds later, he returns and places something on the boys head. “There we go! All better.” He dusted off his hands.
There sat on Griffins head was a small crown. Griffin looked up and smiled, giving them a twirl. The three older boys clapping as he bowed. Then, the younger ran off.
“Well I guess we should get ready for the ceremony.” Billy finally spoke up. Both boys nodding in return, Robin taking a deep breath.
•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•
There Robin stood at the alter, looking oh and waving at some of the guests. Once the music started, Vance walked out with Bruce. Making there way over, hugging Robin. “He’s beautiful, Robin. You’re going to love it.” Bruce smiled and walked over to the other side, as Vance stood next to Robin.
Then, Billy started walking with Gwen- WAIT! WHAT THE FUCK IS SHE DOING HERE?!
“GWEN?!” Robin mouthed. She smiled and waved at him. Tears in her eyes. “You’re so lucky I trust you with him, Robin. Or I would have beaten your ass right here.” She said. Robin bringing his hand up to wipe her tears and then bringing her into a hug.
Robin, then, watched in adoration as Griffin was dancing around, laying his petals down. He was smiling so big, it made Robin’s heart warm. He was glad he was going to be giving the little boy a better life.
He picked him up and hugged the young one. “Te quiero mucho, cariño.” Robin said bringing Griffin’s forehead to his. “Yo también te quiero” Griffin said in return. He’d been practicing, it made Robin laugh. Putting the boy down and letting him run over to Vance.

Finney took a deep breath. “You ready?” Finney said looking at Donna. “ I should be the one asking you, silly!” She said, laughing a bit. “I know, but in a way you’re kind of handing me off, so y’know…” he started fidgeting with his sleeves.
“Hey, it’s gonna be alright. Everything is going perfectly. He’s out there…waiting for you.” She leans closer pretending to whisper. “I also heard from a little birdie that he’s already crying. Happy tears, of course!” She brought him into a hug.
“C’mon let’s do this, hun.” Donna sad as she stuck her arm. Finney looped his around and smiled at her. All thoughts and worries wiped away as he stepped out.
•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•
You would probably call him crazy, if you heard what was going on in Robin’s head. It felt like forever, which in reality was 5 minutes, for the music to start. But in those minutes so many things we’re racing through his head, like-
What if Finn changed his mind and left? Or-
What if something happened to him?-
His thoughts were cut off as everyone started standing. As a very familiar song started playing…of course Finn chose this.
Running from my past, I’m praying,
“Feet don’t fail me now..”
Finn stepped out with his and Donna’s arms interlocked.
I’ve lost my god damn mind,
Robin was most definitely not about to cry.
it happens all the time…
Robin just broke down. Finn looked so beautiful. He was wearing this amazing, white suit with purple embroidered flowers all over it. He had a crown with a veil attached, that layed upon his head. Even under the veil, you could see him smiling like an idiot. You can tell he was anxious by the way he was squeezing Donna’s hand, but she didn’t seem to mind.
I can’t be believe I’m actually
meant to be…here.
Robin put his hands over his face, shielding the embarrassment of him crying. Vance smacked him on the shoulder, motioning for him to stop and look ahead.
Trying to consume,
The drug in me is you.
Finney and Donna finally stop in front of him. Donna staring at him, then speaking. “You better treat him right, asshole, or I’m coming for your head. She said sternly. “Yes, ma’am!” He said, smiling. She then took Finn’s hand and guided it out to Robin. He took it, tears streaming down his face as he turned to face the other, hands in hands.
And I’m so high on misery,
Can’t you see?
Robin looked at his lover. Lifting his hand and pulling the veil out of his face. He wanted to cry even more, his Finn, HIS! Looked so beautiful. Even with his tearful face, he was smiling so bright. So present in the moment he couldn’t help, but laugh a little.
“All please be seated. Today, we are here to bring together Robin Arellano and Finney Blake. Two one of a kind people.” Some laughed at that.
Finn and Robin both spaced out after that. Both caught up it looking at each other, feeling becoming overwhelming. Squeezing their hands together.
•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•
“Finn,” Robin started. “You have been my best friend for more years, than I can count. Literally.” Finn laughed. “I remember the time when you would sit on my bedroom floor and help me with the math homework. Some that I didn’t understand and the ones I did, but I just wanted to see you.” Finn rolled his eyes as smiled even bigger. “I genuinely have no clue where i would be without you in my life, but if I had to guess, I would be in a ditch somewhere.” He laughed at his own joke. As others did so.
“I honestly finished writing this on the dressing room floor with Vance, so I could find the right words, but none could be found. So I guess this is just gonna come from the heart.” Robin the folded up his piece of paper and stuffed it in his pocket, looking back up at Finn.
“Finnegan August Blake, you are truly the love of my life. I am so lucky that I was able to even speak a word to you when we first met, and with all that said-
Espero que me aceptes en tu vida y en algo más grande... Te quiero mucho, Finn. No puedo esperar a pasar el resto de mi vida contigo.” Robin smiled as he finished, looking at Finn’s confused face. Shaking his head laughing.
•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•
“Ok, well- now I have no idea how my thing is gonna beat that.” He said laughing. He took a deep breath, calming his nerves and looking back at his paper.
“Robin, when I first saw you walk into my fourth grade English class, I genuinely thought I had saw my soulmate. it might sound stupid now, but it was love at first sight. I was so scared to talk to you as I saw you sit next to Pinball Vance Hopper. I mean- look at the guy!” He said pointing his towards him.
Vance just acting flattered towards him. Passing him a wink. Robin then glaring a him for a spilt second, before pulling his attention back to Finn.
“Although, those feelings did change, when a few years later you saved me for a few bullies in the bathroom. Just then I could see the look you gave me and I knew that you might have felt the same.” Robin could feel more tears make their way into his eyes, then down in cheeks.
“When you asked me out for the first time, I thought I was dying. I was thinking- How could Robin Arellano, the boy ALL girls fond over, ask me out?- I mean, I was the towns loser. How could someone so amazing and cool like ME?!” He took another deep breath.
“So…Robin Angel Arellano, Te acepto en mi vida. No puedo esperar a envejecer y marchitarme con tu estúpida cara. Quédate conmigo para siempre, Robin. Te quiero.” Robin was face was astonished. “Gwen may have taught me a thing or two…” Robin leaned over to look at Gwen, but she only shot him a wink and shrugged.
•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~
“And with all of that finished, Do you, Robin Arellano, take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do you part?”
“I do.”
“Do you, Finnegan Blake, take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do you part?”
“Yes. I do.”
“You may now kiss the groom.”
Robin immediately pulled Finn in. Kissing over and over again, with tears rolling down both their faces.
They face the crowd, cheering, and started walking down the aisle. Griffin seated in Finn’s arms.
Oh god, how much he loves his, now official, family…
