Chapter Fourteen

They did three nights in Seattle and then they were moving on to Salt Lake City, Utah for another three nights but they were going to have two nights free in between. So Jon was going to take advantage of those two nights with his lady love and book one night totally alone with just her. So in secret he booked two days and one night in Vegas without anyone’s knowledge and as everyone was getting ready to leave for Utah Jon had other ideas. When they got to the airport Jon had the guys use the Bon Jovi jet to head to Utah and he told them that they would meet up with them on show night. They knew better to question him about why they weren’t joining them so they just made their goodbyes and said they would see them in a few days. The guys knew that they wanted to spend some time alone together since they had gotten engaged and hadn’t had the time to do so since they had gotten back. Mary couldn’t for the life of her get where they were going until they were on the plane. Once on she was bugging the hell out of him why they were going to Vegas of all places. He just told her that she would see and that it was a surprise. When they got to their hotel room they had settled in late afternoon. Jon had suggested that they eat and then take a long relaxing shower together. Once they got out and they both were beaming Jon called down to reception. It only took about fifteen minutes when there was a knock on the door.

“Jon who the hell could that be?” Mary asked him.

Smiling, “You’ll see.” He went and answered the door and a lady with her assistant came in with two racks of evening gowns and dresses.

“Jon what’s all this?” she asked him surprised by what was going on.

“This is all for you. I want you to pick out your Wedding Dress.” He told her smiling from ear to ear.

She stood there dumbfounded. “You want me to what?” she asked him surprised.

“You heard me Baby I want you to pick out your wedding dress. That is if you’ll marry me tonight?” he said as he walked over to her and took her hands in his. “Well?” he asked.

 She didn’t know what to say or think. Her head was spinning. “But Jon what about our families? Friends?” she asked him flabbergasted.

“Screw them. I just want it to be us. Just you and me. What do you say elope with me?” he asked with a smile on his sexy face.

Chuckling, “Of course I’ll marry you or elope with you. I never did want a big wedding anyway and if I let Mom have it her way she’ll invite everyone she’d ever met.” She said as she laughed.

“Ok then Beautiful find a dress because I have a reservation at eleven-thirty for us at the Graceland Wedding Chapel tonight.” He told her. So with the help of Ms. Lewis and her assistant Mary went thru the dresses and picked out this pretty ivory casual tea knee length lace high neck and low back wedding dress. Jon had this linen ivory suit with a light blue gauge shirt and a light blue belt and ivory tie loosen at the top. He also had the wedding rings there for her approval.

“Well do you like these?” he asked her.

“My band matches my ring.” She said to him.

“Yeah I thought you might like that. Five diamonds for your wedding band to match the engagement ring.” He said hoping she’d like it.

“I love it. I really love it Honey. It’s beautiful Thank You.” She said with tears in her eyes.

“Hey no crying or your makeup will run.” He told her.

 “I have a feeling it’s going to run anyway.” She sniffed.

“Are you ready?” he asked her.

“More than ever.” She told him happily.

“Then let’s go.” He said as he took her arm in his. They headed out to the chapel. He knew this was going to be a special night not just because it was going to be their wedding night but when he would see her face when they would walk in. When they pulled up and got out he sighed a big sigh of relief only because the press hadn’t gotten wind of their nuptials yet. They entered the chapel as Mary started to giggle. “And what’s so funny young lady?” he asked her smiling.

“Nothing it’s just that I love the name of this chapel. Graceland Wedding Chapel. It’s awesome!” she told him excited.

“I thought you’d love it.” He said as he kissed the top of her head.

 Just then an elderly gentleman walked in and introduced himself. “Well Hello there you must be the Bongiovi party. I’m Jerry Potter and this is my wife June, June Honey where are you?” he called out to her.

 “Oh I’m sorry I’m right here Dear.” She said as she came trotting up to him with some flowers in her hand. “I had to get this lovely child’s bouquet.” Mrs. Potter told them.

“Well thanks Dear she’s always thinking. So you two want to get married correct?” he asked them.

 “Yes Sir we do. I called the day before yesterday and talked to you about the arrangements.” Jon said to him.

 “Oh yes well we have everything you requested and if you’re both ready we can begin. If you’ll just follow me Mr. Bongiovi and Ms. Simon correct?” he asked.

 “Yes Sir that’s Correct.” She said.

“Just for the time being.” Jon corrected them. Mary smiled.

 “So you’re taking his name then?” Mr. Potter asked her.

“Oh I really hadn’t thought about it.” She told him.

“You are taking my name right? You’re not keeping Simon?” he questioned her.

“Well we never did discuss it. Do I have to make up my mind now?” she asked.

“Well it would be helpful if you did so I know what to put on the marriage certificate that way it would be legal and all.” Mr. Potter told her.

“Oh well…”

 “Really you have to think about it? I don’t believe this.” Jon was starting to get upset seeing that he just assumed that she was going to take his name and that it was no big deal. Which it wasn’t as she was just going to tease him so she better rethink about stretching it out any further.

“Honey, Honey calm down I’m sorry okay. Yes I’m going to take his name. I would be honored too.” she smiled as she told everyone concerned.

Jon looked at her funny. “Then why the hesitation?” he asked concerned.

Making a face she said, “I said I was sorry okay. I was trying to be funny and it didn’t come off that way. Can we just leave it and move on? Just chalk it up to nervous energy.” She said him.

Trying to understand, “Sure but no more ha ha. I’m just as nervous as you are Babe okay.”

“Okay.”

 “Fine then Mr…”

“No please call me Jon and this is Mary.” Jon told Potter.

“Fine then Jon you come with me and Mary you go with my wife.” Potter told them.  After a few minutes and both of them were where they should be in the chapel the music starts playing and Mary is being walked down the aisle by Mr. Potter. Jon is standing there watching her come towards him and he has tears in his eyes. He didn’t think it would hit him this hard but it does. To him she’s the most beautiful woman he’s ever seen. She’s carrying a bouquet of roses in her hands that he told them to have for her when they got there. He will never ever have Lilies for her ever again. When she finally reached him she also had tears in her eyes and Potter gives her to him as they hold each other hands. Mary looks around and sees that the Potters are standing to the side so there doesn’t seem to be a Preacher. Jon is smiling at her and she is so confused until out of the side door this tall dark hair man in a white jumpsuit walks out and over to them. Mary nearly faints. An Elvis impersonator is standing in front of them and is ready to conduct the ceremony. She looks at her husband to be.

“You like?” Jon asks for the umpteenth time today.

 “Oh my God I can’t. This is just to, too much!” she tells him with a smile a mile long.

 “It’s just the beginning Baby.” He told her. They stand there holding each other’s hands looking lovingly at each other as the Minster gets to the I Do’s:

He takes her left hand and as he holds it he slides her wedding band on her finger.

I, Jon, take you Mary, for my lawful wedded wife, to have and to hold I promise to be true to you in good times and bad, for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, I will love and honor you all the days of my life until death do us part.

She now takes his left hand in hers and slides his wedding band onto his finger.

I, Mary, take you Jon, for my lawful wedded husband, to have and to hold I promise to be true to you in good times and bad, for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, I will love and honor you all the days of my life until death do us part.

“In as much as you have consented together in marriage, and by virtue of the authority vested in me by the laws of the State of Nevada, it is my distinct pleasure to declare that you are now husband and wife.”

“You may now kiss one another.” He told them as he smiled, as did the Potters.

Looking as happy as any man could, he took her face between his hands and gently kissed her as her hands went to his hips to basically balance herself. It wasn’t a long kiss just a sweet kiss. They parted and he whispered “I love you Mrs. Bongiovi.” “I love you too Mr. Bongiovi.” Just then Mrs. Potter threw rice into the air dousing them with it. “Oh my.” Mary exclaimed.

“Congratulations!” the Potters yelled as did the Elvis impersonator.

 “Thank You. Um would it be alright if you sign our marriage license? I don’t mean to rush any of you but we would like to…” Jon was trying to finish but Potter interrupted.

“Oh sure thing we know you youngins’ what to get started on the honeymoon.” He said to Jon winking at him. Jon just gave a him a wiry smile not wanting to get into the real reason why he wanted to get out of there. They got the license and thanked everyone and headed back to the hotel before anyone could spot them. As they got off the elevator and to their door Jon unlocked the door and opened it slightly.

He then turned around as Mary was about to enter the room. “Hold on their Baby.” He said to her as he stopped her in her tracks.

Confused, “What’s the matter? You want me to check the room before you go in there?” she asked him dead serious.

 Looking at her as he rolled his eyes, “Well thanks for hurting my manhood Hon.” He said to her chuckling. “I guess that’s what I get for marrying a P.I. huh?”

Realizing what she just said to him, “Oh Honey I didn’t mean anything by that I’m so sorry…”

“Calm down I’m just joking with you it’s ok really I just stopped to do this.” he said as he also looked up and down the hall to make sure nobody was there  looking at them. He scooped her up in his arms.

“What the hell?” she asked. “I thought you were supposed to do this when we’re home?” she asked him.

 “Well I will but hotels are the closest thing we have to home right now so I’m going to do it now and when we get back to Jersey.” He told her as he pushed the door open with his foot and carried her through.  

Kicking the door shut he put her down and kissed her thoroughly. “Hmmm that was…nice.” She said as she took her arms off around his neck.

“Just nice?” he asked.

“You know what I meant smart ass.” She giggled.

 “Smart ass huh? I’ll show you smart ass.” Jon told her as he had a wild look in his eyes. Giggling Mary started to move slowly backwards and she hit the back of the couch. “Don’t. You can’t out run me Babe.” He said to her in a very low sexy growl as he sauntered over to her and put his hands on both sides of her as he leaned in barely touching his face to hers.

“Oh I wouldn’t think of it.” She told smiling. But then something hit her when she remembered what he said to her when they enter the room. ‘When they get back to Jersey? Get back to Jersey? What the hell? He thinks they’re going to live in Jersey? Oh crap they’re going to have to talk.’ She thought.

“Hey whatcha thinking?” he asked her.

 “Um what?” she asked him looking somewhat far away.

“You don’t look like you’re with me you look like you went somewhere else. You ok?” Jon asked her concerned.

“Yeah I’m fine Sweetie just fine. Now where were we?” she asked as she wrapped her arms around him. Well he showed her right there as he undressed his new bride. They left a line of clothing along the floor to the bedroom and as they enjoyed each other they did find that being married did find a certain excitement to their love making. Maybe it help as Mary kept telling him that he was fucking a married woman helped a little as she also kept giggling as she said it. He found that so cute when she did that. That was one of the things she did that he found so adorable in her.

They had to get up early the next morning which was a little difficult seeing that Jon had other things in mind for his new bride and with the little sleep he had gotten she wasn’t a morning person. He had snuggled up to her nibbling on her ear as she was not groaning but grumbling. “Jonnny! What time is it?” she whined.

Turning over to check the clock he told her, “It’s a little after six Babe.” He told her as he continued to nibble and lick her ear.

“Jon please just five more minutes ok? I promise okay?” she asked as she dug her face into the pillow.

 “Nope your mine now. I can legally do whatever I want.” He told her as he again continued to do what he was doing. “Besides we have to get up in an hour to get ready to check out we have a plane to catch in a few hours remember?” he told her.

“Oh crap and what do you mean I’m yours?” she asked as she turned over to face him.

Smiling that evil little smile of his, “That ring on your finger says your mine. Which means I can do whatever my little dirty mind can come up with.” He said as he smirked and kissed her nose.

“You do know you’re a pain in the ass right?”

“Oh I’m a pain in the ass well we’ll just see about that!” He said thru gritted teeth as he grabbed her and started to slap her ass. She squealed and squirmed as he pinned her underneath him and he kissed her hard and passionately. His hands finally let go of hers and started to roam her body as her legs wrapped around his waist. They were never one to just fuck. Jon loved to take his time with her. He wanted to always feel every part of her. He wanted her to enjoy every part of him.

An hour or so went by and they showered and got dressed. They checked out of the hotel and made it to the airport without too much fanfare. It didn’t take them long to get back the guys. As they landed in Utah, Jon had a car waiting for them to take them to the hotel. Again they got there without anyone noticing probably because everyone thought they were already there and that they were already in the hotel. They went in the back way thru the kitchen seeing most of the fans were waiting out front and the kitchen parking area was blocked off. Jon liked this hotel it was one of the more high class ones and security was much better when added with theirs. When they reached their room Jon grabbed her and planted a huge kiss on her lips. “Hey what was that for?” she asked him smiling.

“I have to have a reason now to kiss my own wife?” he said to her.

 Putting her arms around him, “No I guess not but you better keep that up then.” She told him kissing him back.

“Well I hate to end all this and our short lived honeymoon Babe but I have to let the guys know we’re back.” He told her.

 “I know and we also have to tell them plus your family and mine. Then I’m going into the witness protection program I don’t know about you but when my Mom hears that she didn’t get to see her daughter get married I’m hiding!” she told him with a slight smile.
