Click here"I haven't planned a speech, and my heart is so full today I can hardly speak," he admitted. Sighing and blinking furiously as he saw Tony's eyes fill.
"Our families have merged and that includes our friends-family. This is without a doubt the happiest day of my life. But what I really wanted to say, you all know what we've been through this year, is thank you."
Tony looked puzzled and pointed to himself, like 'who, me?'.
Ty laughed, "Yes, you. Thank you, Tony. For being my husband. For being in my life and more than anything, thank you for not giving up. Thank you for fighting."
His voice cracked and he just shook his head as Tony stood and embraced him, before inflicting upon him a very, very wet sloppy kiss.
"I'll never leave you," he promised. Too quietly for anyone else to hear. Then looking up at the room, Tony grinned through his tears, his arm around Ty's waist. "Can we have cake now?"

Postscript:
A month after the wedding, Tony came in from work. He was tired, but it was a good tired. He was now up to five shows a week, grinning and laughing his way through every curtain call.
There was a large thick parcel on the kitchen counter. He opened it to find a hardback book. Turning it over with excitement to read, Battle Beginning, by FA Thomas.
Grinning, unable to resist, he flipped through the first few pages. The grin slipped from his face to be replaced by astonishment when he reached the dedication.
'We named Antonio for a true life warrior. To Tony, because some heroes are real.'

To all those real warriors out there. Keep fighting. Love Emily x

I'm soooooo sorry. I promise you, Ty and Tony are coming back, and strong. I have x2 chapters in progress.
I kinda got side tracked by another project. Which is not for this site, more like an actual book - potentially.
I know right? What is Emily thinking, is her grasp of the English language really that good? (Probably not!)
But it's been really moving and so much fun, so I've been distracted.
Current at various stages, x2 Broadway, x1 Manor and x1 Tess, so keep your eyes peeled.

Anonymous5 months agoHey Em,
It's Honey:) I think I shall start referring to myself as that from now on.
I'm awaiting the promised fun story on these 2, not that I didn't love the last 2 BDSM chapters. I did love them but my favorite couple needs another story too!!
Eagerly awaiting T and T,
Your biggest fan
emilyagilbert8 months agoAuthorHey Honey (remember me?) Of course.
Did you complain? I don't think the management accept complaints! Seriously though, let me address your comment. And please don't stop commenting, coz I love it, and I love how people get such different stuff out of what I write.
First: There is at least one more Tony & Ty story coming, but although it's currently scrambled (& I wish to hell I could read my own writing) notes, it's coming out as total froth. Seems to be a sun, sea and sex story, so I don't want you to worry about reading it. I promise you will have fun.
Second: Aww, I'm sorry you were disappointed, but ya know if everyone like the same stuff this would be a very boring website! I also love how you described the previous chapters as light & loving...let me see, er hold ups at gun point, crazed stalkers, historic sexual assault, self inflicted knife wounds, that's the tip of the iceberg & I haven't started on the on/off stage drama. WOW, what's life in your household like?? hehe. I'm teasing, you know.
Third: It was darker, yes. Hence the amber warning. But sometimes a good cry is cathartic. I cried a ton when I was writing it. The thing is, as I said in a previous reply to B Betrayal. I followed the story. Had my research led me to Tony having a couple of years or even months, I would have honoured that. I would have HATED it, but I would have done it. But maybe you could consider re-reading these last two chapters & considering the love, strength, kindness and humour with which Tony and Ty deal with this. It really is inspiring. I just adore their relationship, both with each other and their wider family & friends/family.
Bear in mind as well that Tony may have 5, 10, 15 or more years before he gets the call. These stories are set more or less now. In 15 years there really may be a cure. As Ty says. Maybe it won't be repeated chemo. Maybe he'll already be cured. Wouldn't that be amazing. We can all do something about that, even just chucking your loose change in a collection box as you pass. ^_*
I honestly don't know where this story came from. I don't think them up exactly, I follow the story. However, having just experienced a bereavement that has left a gaping hole inside me, and having to face the knowledge that nothing in my life will ever be completely right again, I am willing to concede that perhaps the darkness and struggles in this story have some root in my personal circumstances right now. Mine was not cancer or chemo related, but still, maybe my escape into writing wasn't quite the escape is usually is. Just perhaps.
Anyhow, thanks again for your comment, & as I said. Total fun next time. YAY!!!!!!!

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed. Although I kinda hope I don't have to do research like this again, it was sad.

Me again, your biggest critic and bigest biggest fan. I'm tho one who you sent here after I complained about A and L..... You know the rest 😉
I have to say, I am a bit disappointed. This was my favorite read. I'd come back here all the time to reread, loved how light and how loving it was.
Now it became so heavy and dark,I cried a lot when I read the last two parts, and it doesn't even have the happily ever after! I hope you don't finish the story, even if you did write a PostScript. Maybe there's still a chance if it becoming fun and happy again? I'd love to know that they grew old together and had a lot of healthy years.
I feel so sad after reading, it's touching but not a feel good ending. Pleeeaaasee fix it?
