Love Always
part seventeen
My family and friends, they were all at the church. Everyone that I had ever known, was waiting for me to walk down the isle and marry the boy that I have loved my entire life. And me? I was a wreck.
"What if something goes wrong?" I ask, turning to face my mom.
"Sweetie, I never thought I would be giving my baby girl up to a man at sixteen. But here we are. And do you honestly think I would have let it get this far, if I didn't know this was going to work out?" she asked me with a gentle smile.
As always, my mom knew exactly what to say. I turned and looked at myself in the mirror, preparing myself for the moment I had always known would happen.
"I'm ready." I told her.
The music began to play, that was my cue. I walked down the isle, slowly with my mom on my arm. Everyone who was anyone in town, and at school, my family, Ace's family, they were all there. In any other situation I would have been terrified. But I wasn't, because Ace, my Ace was waiting for me at the end of the isle. And he was looking at me, with the biggest smile I had seen in my life.
I reached the altar, and the ceremony began. I will be honest with you it is all kind of a blur. Everything up to the vows that is anyway. Now those, I could tell you anytime and any place. My vows were simple, and sweet, reminding him how much I had loved him, still loved him, and always would love him. But his vows, they were incredible.
"Zandria, I have loved you since I laid eyes on you. I have never seen anyone more beautiful in my life. I know we are young, and people probably think we are foolish. But I nearly lost you three months ago in an accident, and I knew I could not live with never having been able to call you my wife. So this is my promise to you. I will love you always and forever, as I have promised to do every night since we began living together at the age of three. I proposed to you when we were seven. I declared my love for you in public on several occassions, I have never so much as willingly kissed a girl who was not you, and I can promise you that will never change. The only other girl I will ever love as much as you will be our daughter. Zandria I cannot promise you the perfect life you deserve, only that I will always be a part of it, and you my dear, you I will love. Always."
After the vows we were pronounced man and wife, and kissed for the first time as a married couple. And I will not lie. It may have been the best kiss we had ever shared.
