This choice: She is relieved that the ceremony went well • Go Back...Chapter #5She is relieved that the ceremony went well by: blainegame   Jackie grabs your arm at the reception and pulls you out onto a balcony where you won’t be overheard.
“Thank goodness everything is going ok, Gerry. You and Maggie are doing a good job acting – I don’t think anyone thinks anything is up. It’s actually kind of fun watching my own wedding from someone else’s point of view!”
You nod, slightly bewildered. You can’t help noticing the slight double-chin Maggie… or Jackie, rather... has.
Jackie lowers her voice and smirks mischievously. “Maggie is staying in the same hotel, so I’ll find a way to sneak up to the wedding suite tonight. I’m sure Maggie won’t mind if we celebrate our wedding night, even if I’m still in her body.”
“Sure,” you respond faintly. You’re not sure how that will go.
“Anyway, we should get back to the reception. Just get to tonight, and we’ll figure this all out.” Jackie leans in to kiss you, then, just as she’s about to reach your face, turns and kisses your cheek instead. She sighs. “Wouldn’t want anyone to see an ex-girlfriend kissing the groom.”
You step back inside to Maggie, looking radiant and graceful in Jackie’s wedding dress. As you walk up, she smiles and strokes your arm.
The rest of the reception goes on without incident. You dance with Maggie, trying to avoid eye contact with Jackie, who looks on, amused. The toasts from your family and friends are sweet and heartfelt. You say hello to a whirlwind of people from your life and Jackie’s. Every time you hear glasses tinkling you kiss Jackie… er, Maggie, to the crowd’s applause. Everything goes so fast that it’s easy to forget that the woman sitting next to you is not actually your wife. And at the end of the night, you jump into the limo back to the hotel with Maggie, and she puts her head on your shoulder. You arrive at the hotel room. You shower (you feel sweaty and dirty) and put on some clean clothes.
When you get out, you see Jackie… or rather Maggie, standing in just a towel. “My turn!” she says, playfully. She sweeps by you, leaving her hand on your waist as she passes by and closes the bathroom door behind her. The wedding suite shower has frosted glass – you can see Jackie’s body in silhouette take off the towel and turn on the water.
Suddenly, you hear a knock at the door. You open it, and come face to face with Maggie’s big smile. “Jackie!” you exclaim, relieved. Jackie slips in.
