(PS: the fic starts with: As long as you both shall live!!)

"As long as you both shall live?"

"I do." Angel's response was direct and certain.

"Do you Buffy Anne Summer take Liam Angelus O'Brien to be your husband, to have and to hold through sickness and in health, as long as you both shall live?"

Meanwhile Buffy looked around the room while the priest was speaking. Everybody was there. Her mother was crying on the one of the front seats, Buffy knew how happy her mother was for her. Buffy and her mother both know that Buffy belongs with Angel and her mother had finally admitted that.

Buffy's look turned to the other side of the room. There was Willow. She was also crying. She had already warned Buffy that she always cried at wedding and she knew that this was going to be a big happy sobbing festivity. Buffy knew that Willow was going to be the next who was going to get married, after Oz returned he had promised her to never leave again and they got engaged just two weeks ago.

Willow had been so supporting since Buffy found out she was pregnant, they didn't know who's it was at first and al believed Riley was the father. Ooh Riley had been so happy when he heard that it was probably his child, but this happiness didn't stay long. Buffy had found out that it was Angels baby after she had fainted when she was 5 months pregnant. She remembered everything about there lost day. Willow promised to be there with her when she told Riley that he wasn't the father. He had gone crazy, he was yelling and screaming and cursing Angel from existing. After she told him it wasn't his child he never talked to her again.

Buffy realized that she didn't mind that too much, she was very happy together with Angel and doesn't remember why she even went out with Riley.

Buffy gazed back to the man in front of her, he was smiling down on her and she could she the love in his eyes. She turned her eyes back to her friends.

Next to Willow was Oz, he had cured from the whole werewolf thing and was finally living a normal life with Willow. "They deserve it," Buffy thought. "They deserve the same happiness that Angel and I have now that he has regained his life"

She remember when he first told her that he was alive and breathing. She was standing at the mansion in the sunlight and he just came up after her. She didn't even hear him coming, he just put her arms around her waist and kissed her softly on her neck leaving a trail of soft warm kisses.

Buffy thought she was dreaming at that moment, but she had slowly realized that it wasn't a dream and that Angel was standing in the sunlight once again after there lost day. They had spent the whole day outside and in the evening he made love to her. She remember thinking that that had to be the best day of her life. She was wrong, this was definitely the best day of her life. She and Angel making vows to each other. And telling each other that they'll be together forever, well at least as long as they'll both shall live.

Buffy focused on her friends again, not far from Oz was Anya. Buffy noticed that Anya was actually crying because of the beautiful ceremony that Buffy and Angel where having.

Next to Anya was of course Xander who had actually accepted Angel after Xander got to hold their first born, he said that he realized that Buffy and Angel belong together and after Angel turned human he knew that Angel would make Buffy happy. Xander was flattered that they chose his name for their first born's second name. They had named him Liam Alexander O'Brien.

Cordelia was sitting not far from Xander she was looking at her husband Doyle, who was standing behind Angel as his best man. Buffy liked Doyle, he was nice and very good for Cordelia, and he was Angels best friend. She remembered Cordelia's and Doyle's wedding. She knew how beautiful the ceremony was and she remembered seeing Cordelia happier that she had ever seen her. Now it was Buffy's turn for a happy time, she just had to say I do as soon as the priest had his say and she would be Angels girl forever.

Buffy turned her gaze to her bridesmaid, she actually asked Willow to be her bridesmaid but Willow said that Dawn wanted to be it more than anything and Willow wanted Buffy sister to have the honor.

Buffy knew that Dawn wasn't her real sister, but she had al the memories of her and thought that that made her part of her family. And she wanted Dawn to stay with her mom as Buffy was going to live in LA with Angel, she just wanted to make sure that her mother wouldn't be lonely.

Buffy let her eyes look at her former watcher. She remember how much they had been through and now, now she was going to leave the one father figure she had. She had been released from her duties as the slayer because she had faced the end of days. Now there was going to come an innocent 15 year old girl who would probably die within the year. But Buffy wanted a normal life with Angel so excepted her release.

She would never forget Giles and she already promised herself that she would visit him as often as she could, he was sort of her father and she needed him always.

She looked back at her lover and almost husband. He hadn't stop looking at her and was still smiling. You know that half-smile that makes Angel the most adorable guy in her live. She couldn't believe that she was about to become his wife, it was like a dream come true. She slowly looked at the little guy behind Angel who was holding a pillow with the two claddaugh rings on them. She looked at her first born, he looked so beautiful. Liam smiled at his mother and made a quick wave with his small hands, without dropping the pillow. Buffy almost laughed out loud. She couldn't believe that he was going to have a baby sister very soon. Buffy placed her hand on her stomach only 6 more months and they would have another kid around. She knew that Liam was excited about getting a brother or sister. She remembered his exact words. I waited 3 years for this She remembered that he was holding his fingers in the air, but showed four finger in stead of three. With that thought Buffy grinned again. She looked over at Angel and noticed that he squeezed her hands for a second.

She looked at the priest as she heard him say: "As long as you both shall live"

Buffy smiled and looked into her lovers eyes. After a moment of silence she softly responded "I Do"
