Noelle's Pov
                          


                          
"I can't do it! What if he objects?! DAMN IT!" We hear Faith scream from her dressing room. Today, Faith was getting married to Niall. He had proposed to her over 2 years and they planned everyday since then for the perfect wedding. "If he was going to object then he wouldn't have proposed Faith. He loves you so just finish getting ready and get your ass out here!" Marie, Hunter's wife, shouts back at Faith. Marie and Hunter have been married for 4 years and they have a 3 year old daughter named Jolie. We hear silence on the other side of Faith's dressing room door. Suddenly, her door opens and out walks my beautiful sister in her stunning dress. Wow she looks amazing!
                          


                          
"Faith! You look phenomenal!" Everyone gushed over her dress. "Alright ladies! It's time!" Tiki, the photographer, shouted at us. "It's time sis. You're going to get married." I say, following behind everyone else but walking beside my sister. "I'm so nervous Elle. I hope everything goes as planned." Faith took a few deep breathes then smiled as wide as she could. "I'm going to be Mrs. Faith Horan very soon. Can you believe it?" She looks at me and I can see the tears in her eyes. I glanced at Jolie walking down the isle and the other girls following behind. "Yes I can Faith. You will make an amazing Horan." I kiss her cheek and hug her tightly before walking to the white carpet that was lining the walkway down the two isles of chairs. Niall wanted an outdoor wedding and Faith fell absolutely in love with the idea. 
                          


                          
The music was playing softly and after all of us bridesmaids were standing in our spots, Here Comes The Bride begins playing and Hunter began to walk Faith down the isle. Today was the day that Faith was looking forward to. She always wanted to have the perfect wedding and to have our father walk her down the isle. The tears were evident in Faith's eyes. The song faded slowly and the preacher began his speech to wed Niall and Faith.
                          


                          
The part came where they said "I do" and then everyone began to cry. "I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride." Niall gently grabbed the back of Faith's neck and brought her in for the kiss. Everyone erupted into cheering and wolf-whistling as the newlywed couple shared their kiss. "Ladies and gentlemen, I give to you, Mr. and Mrs. Horan!" Faith hooked her arm through Niall's and they walked down the isle. We all hooked arms with the groomsmen and walked after them. 
                          


                          
After taking countless amount of pictures, we headed back to the reception place to eat and dance. The supper was amazing and it was finally time for the bride and groom to share their first dance. Of course the song was Photograph by Ed Sheeran and their dance was beautiful. After their dance, it was suppose to be the father-daughter dance. "Ladies and gentlemen, next is the father-daughter dance but unfortunately Faith's father had passed away. Her brother Hunter has decided to step in for this dance. This is a special song for you Faith." The DJ announced and right then, I knew what song it was going to be. The song that our father had always sang to Faith whenever she needed to be reminded that he loved her and whenever she was down. My Wish by Rascal Flatts. As the music began playing, tears start streaming down Faith's face. Hunter holds her close as she cries on his shoulder. 
                          


                          
I lean my head onto Zayn's shoulder and wipe the tears falling down my cheeks. I remember every night after something wrong happened, our dad and mom would come to us and sing songs to us to calm us down. Faith's song was My Wish by Rascal Flatts, Hunter's was Don't Blink by Kenny Chesney and mine was Butterfly Kisses by Bob Dylan. Zayn wrapped his arm around my shoulder to comfort me and placed a kiss to the top of my head. "Are you alright darlin?" He asks, lifting my chin to make me face him. His face turns very concerned when he sees my face filled with tears. "This was the song my father use to sing to Faith. I miss him and my mother so much Zayn." I cry and hug Zayn.
                          


                          
After Hunter and Faith were done dancing, the whole bridal party and the groomsmen got up to dance together. Luckily, the groomsmen were all either dating, married or engaged to someone in the bridal party. Hunter and Marie were married, Niall and Faith just got married and everyone else (Liam and Karley, Louis and Layla, Harry and Erica) were all engaged. The only ones still just dating were me and Zayn. "Now on the dance floor will be the bridal party and the groomsmen dancing to Iris by Goo Goo Dolls starts playing. We all slow dance and just have a great night on Niall and Faith's wedding. It was just the way they wanted it....perfect!
                          


                          
*8 HOURS LATER*
                          


                          
It's around midnight when me and Zayn are getting ready to leave the wedding. Everyone was sitting down just talking before we all left to go home. Zayn stood up and tapped his beer bottle with a knife and we all looked at him. (By all I mean me, Hunter, Faith, Niall, Marie, Harry, Erica, Louis, Layla, Liam and Karley) "Thanks for giving me your attention. Tonight was such an amazing night and I know we are all thinking that." Zayn begins, looking at all of us making sure we are all paying attention. "Seeing everything that went on tonight has been so inspirational and I want to ask you something Elle." Zayn turns to look at me and all of the guys are giving knowing looks to each other. I look up at Zayn from my sitting position and he is grinning so wide. 
                          


                          
"Noelle Jones, my life has been so hectic and so confusing but I wouldn't trade it for anything else in the world. You are the love of my life and you have brought so much happiness to me and I just want to tell you that I love you." Zayn then proceeds to get down on one knee and pulls out a little black velvet box. My hands fly up to my mouth and my eyes begin to water. "Noelle Jones, will you marry me?" Zayn opens the box and inside is the most beautiful ring I have ever seen in my life. "YES YES YES!!!" I reply and begin crying hard as I hug and kiss Zayn while everyone else claps and cheers. He slides the ring on my ring finger and places a kiss to my lips. "Tonight has been so romantic!" Harry says, causing everyone else to laugh.
                          


                          
 Around 1am, me and Zayn stumble into our house after the wedding and proposal. The night was amazing and everyone had a blast. We both head up the stairs to our bedroom and Zayn closes the door behind him. "Can you help me out of this dress babe?" I turn around and lift up my long curly hair so Zayn could unzip the dress. He finally got it undone, even though he struggled with the zipper a lot, I slid the dress down my body and plopped down on my bed. "You look so sexy like that." Zayn almost growls, and by the prominent bulge in his dress slacks, he is a lot turned on. I sit up and grab Zayn's tie and the began a fun filled night for the both of us.
                          


                          
(A/N: I decided to not put in the smut scene in this chapter but be prepared for  quite a bit to happen in the next chapter. Only 2 more chapters left until People Like Us is over :( I loved making this book, it was a blast! Also, if nobody can see the picture I put at the beginning of this chapter then let your imagination run wild with the looks of the dresses!)
