“I, David, take you, Emma, to be my lawfully wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do us part.”
“I, Emma, take you, David, to be my lawfully husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do us part.”
“You have declared your consent before the Church. May the Lord in his goodness strengthen your consent and fill you both with his blessings. What God has joined, men must not divide. Amen.”
After that Emma and David were wed. They were so happy, when they came to the hotel where was planed to celebrate their wedding they saw boys from Fast Snails fighting about which songs will they play.
“Oh, hi! Congratulations! Don’t worry, everything is fine, we will play as best as we can for you! Today is your day!” Said Nick trying to make everything look good.
“Thank you, Nick. Adam told me you are great!”
“We won’t disappoint you! Let’s go guys, let’s play!” Said Jack.
They started to play some of the most popular songs, they were good, and all guests enjoyed it.
“OK! We will take a little break! Enjoy!” Said Jack.
They turned off the microphones and started arguing what will they play next.
“Can we play one of our songs?” Asked Kevin.
“Are you stupid or dumb? We don’t have any good songs!” Fred retorted.
“Well, that is not true, I wrote five of them, and Kevin wrote two! We have seven good songs!” Said Jack.
“I know what I said!” Said Fred.
“OK! Easy! We need to start playing again soon, so let’s just play one of our songs, Kevin and Jack want it, so let’s do it!” Said Nick.
Although Nick didn’t like their songs either, he wanted to stop fighting, and he knows that this is his last time playing with those guys because he decided for sure to go to L.A. but he didn’t tell anyone yet.
“Whatever. Which song?” Asked Fred.
“Run with me!” Said Jack.
“OMG! OMG! No!” Said Fred.
“Why not?” Asked Jack sadly.
“Because it is stupid, makes no sense, and no one will like it, this is not your wedding! We should play something what they like, not what like some idiot guitarist! You wrote it when you were ten!” Said Fred.
“OK! Stop, Fred. You can’t talk like that, we will play Run with me!” Said Kevin.
Kevin didn’t hate that song like Fred and Nick, but he didn’t like it either. He just wanted to be on the side that would oppose Fred’s.
“OK! Let’s go!” Said Nick.
“Hi everyone! We are back, and as our wedding gift to Emma and David we want to play this song! I wrote it when I was ten! Hopefully you will enjoy it!” Said Jack proudly.
Jack started to sing.
“Although I am just a little snail,
and you are panther with a tail!
I can run like you,
I can be as fast as you!
You may be stronger than me,
but you can’t scare me!
I am not running from you,
I am running to get there before you!
You are running alone,
and that makes you slow!
I am running with a pal,
so I am faster now!
If you are running with someone,
you will get there before anyone!”
“Thank you!” Said Jack.
All the guests were surprised. Jack could see that they didn’t like it, and he abhorred it. He dreamed about singing that song in front of thousands of people, and now as he was singing that song in front of less than hundred people and saw they disliked it, he was feeling devastated. He threw microphone on the ground and hit Nick’s drums with his guitar.
Everyone was shocked. Jack realized that he lost control and started to cry.
“What is wrong with you?!” Asked David angrily. “You will not be paid for this!”
“We are so sorry, Jack lost control, please forgive him, we are very sorry, sir!” Said Nick.
“Get out of here! I don’t want to see you ever again!” Said David.
“Jack, will you just cry like a baby? Apologize to David and Emma, and to everyone!” Said Fred.
Jack didn’t say he was sorry, he just decided to run away!
“We are so sorry, sir!” Said Nick again.
Nick, Fred and Kevin went to find Jack. They found him in a park near hotel.
“What was that, bro?” Asked Kevin friendly.
“I don’t know… Sorry guys.” Said Jack in tears.
“You are sorry? He is sorry! Do you have any idea what you have done?! You embarrassed us in front of everyone! What would you tell Adam? You want me to stay here, to continue playing with you? Why would I do that, we are not kids anymore Jack! So stop acting like one! If there ever was any chance for us to become famous you ruined it! I decided to go to L.A.! I am going next Monday!” Said Nick angrily.
“But… You said you will stay for twenty days yesterday, and now you are saying you will go in two days…” Said Jack very sadly.
“Who cares! I can do anything I want! I will not do things in my life to please a baby like you!” Said Nick.
“OK! It’s enough. Let’s all go home.” Suggested Kevin.
“Will we see you before you go, Nick?” Asked Fred.
“You two, maybe, Jack will not!” Said Nick.
Jack started to cry, again. And Nick just leaves.
“Nice job, Jack.” Said Fred ironically.
“Easy, bro!” Said Kevin.
“You are stupid as him, let’s go home!” Said Fred.
“We can’t leave Jack alone here, we need to help him to get home, he is falling apart.” Said Kevin sadly.
“I am going home, see you!” Said Fred.
Kevin helped Jack to come home.
