Headquarters, Star City -- December 12, 2011
Once the ceremony was done, they gathered back inside, the living room had been converted into a larger dining room and there was enough food to feed about fifty people, although with Bart around, that was probably going to be necessary.
They had rented a few tables that were spread around, one of them had Gabe, Martha and Perry, Lois and Richard and J'onn. At a second table were Carter, Courtney, Victor, Bart, Mia, AC and Dinah.
At the third table were Emil, Bruce and his butler Alfred, Lana and Pete with a high chair for baby John and Chloe and Oliver had been making their way around, talking and catching up with everyone.
Chloe was grateful for the fact that Lois had helped her pull her dress up and hang the skirt of it higher so she wasn't afraid of tripping or stepping on it anymore and felt a lot better about having to move around, even though it was just a small group of them, she knew that Bart was still running around with the camera and she wanted to look her best on all the pictures of her wedding day.
Once she was done catching up with the table her dad was at, she stood up and looked around the room, looking for Ollie.
He stood at the table with the rest of the League, chatting with Mia and Bart about the food when he felt her eyes on him. He paused, and turned to look, meeting her gaze from a few feet away and smiling softly.
She smiled back and made her way over to him, her smile growing brighter as she reached over and took his hand, "and how are you doing?"
"Better now," he answered, his eyes lighting up as he leaned in and kissed her softly. "How about you, Mrs. Queen?"
Chloe returned the kiss and squeezed his hand softly, grinning brightly at that, "really good, Mr. Queen."
"Excellent," he murmured, resting his forehead against hers. "Have I mentioned that you look breathtaking?"
"Once or twice," she teased quietly, reaching with her free hand and adjusting his tie, "I think people are starting to think I don't care about what they are saying because I can't stop looking at you while they are talking."
"There are other people here?" he joked softly, reaching up to touch her cheek.
She grinned softly, leaning into his touch, "did you have enough to eat?"
Oliver nodded slightly. "Yeah, how about you?"
"Yeah, I did, and we still have cake," she told him, brushing her thumb over the back of his hand.
"How much longer do we have to stick around?" he teased, rubbing his nose against hers. "I'm ready to head to the jet."
Chloe smirked and kissed him softly, "enjoy the company of other people while you can because when we leave, you won't be seeing anyone else until we get back," she told him in a whisper, raising her eyebrows.
He raised his eyebrows in return. "And you think I'm disappointed about that? Hah." He kissed the corner of her mouth.
She grinned and squeezed his hand, brushing her nose against his, "in that case, I'm definitely ready to go too."
"Excellent." He kissed her nose and reached down to take her hand in his.
She looked down at their hands and smiled, brushing her thumb over his ring then looking back up at him.
Oliver met her eyes and smiled softly. "I believe we do have a couple of things left to do before we go," he told her.
"You mean other than eating cake?" She said quietly, smirking softly as she cocked her head to look at him.
He grinned at that. "Yes. For one..." He pulled her closer, looking across the room to AC and nodding slightly, soft music began to play. "We have to have our first dance as husband and wife."
Chloe raised her eyebrows and smiled, glancing toward the stereo then back, smiling brightly, "I wasn't aware there was going to be dancing..."
"Of course. There's going to be a lot of dancing. Years of it," he informed her with a soft smile, resting his forehead against hers.
She smiled when someone lowered the lights of the room and pulled her hands from his, wrapping her arms loosely around his neck as she stepped closer, "sounds promising."
"Good. It is," he agreed, pulling her a little closer.
Leaning in, she pressed a soft kiss against his lips then pulled back enough to hold his gaze as they moved slowly in the center of the room, "it doesn't matter if there is no dancing, and other things normal people do," she told him in a whisper, her eyes bright, "as long as I have you."
"As long as we have each other," he whispered back.
"Everything else, we can make it work," she told him, smiling and nodding slightly before brushing her nose against his.
He smiled softly at her, kissing her. "We always do."
She kissed him back and winced a little when there was a loud whistle, and without turning to see who it was, she grinned, "classy, Lo," she said loud enough to be heard over the music.
Oliver chuckled softly. "In-laws," he said with amusement.
"Welcome to the family," she told him with a bright smile.
His eyes were bright as he held her gaze. "Thank you."
Chloe cupped the back of his head and leaned in, brushing her lips against his, "I love you, Mr. Queen."
"And I love you, Mrs. Queen," he whispered.
She smiled against his lips and kissed him once more. Mrs. Queen definitely felt right, just like she'd expected it would.
