Hi, my name is Billy.
TOM: Are you excited?
My future brother-in-law was adjusting my tie.
ME: I'm...sweating.
TOM: That's great!
ME: Yeah. How many, uh--
TOM: Not a lot. And no CBQ's. I followed your instructions to the letter.
ME: Thank you so much. I just couldn't handle any of that today.
TOM: Relax. This is going to be the happiest day of your life.
We'll see about that.
Once the wedding got started, I did manage to calm down a little bit.
Emma walked down the aisle looking beautiful.
We read our vows.
We cried.
We laughed.
Then we got to the part I was worried about.
PRIEST: If anyone here can think of any reason...
It's okay, I told myself. Who can stop this now?
Jeremy's not here.
None of the queens are.
This is going to be just--
VOICE: Stop!
Oh no.
Everyone looked to the back of the church were the objector was standing.
CHRISTOPHER: I'm in love with this person!
Tom was standing in the third row looking confused.
I warned him about the CBQ's, but I forgot to tell him about my latest convert.
Except it seems the conversion didn't take.
I started to say something to Emma, but when I looked at her, she had tears in her eyes and she was looking right at--
EMMA: Christopher!
She ran to him, and threw herself into his arms.
They kissed, and then ran out of the church.
I was shocked.
My convert had just stolen my fiance.
Somewhere in here there was irony, but at that moment, I just felt...
...Thrilled.
