I gasped as I stared down, wide eyed at John. "John? What are you doing?"

The whole church gasped along with me. All the cultists must have been surprised too.

John smiled the biggest smile I've ever seen him smile; it was so genuine... "Darling... I know this is going to sound so cheesy, but I don't care... I remember that day at the pool... It was so long ago." He chuckled. "And I will never forget when we bumped into each other. From that day on, I knew that you were the one, babygirl... The Father said to you that God gave you to me... and I believe him. You're my world, Rory. My life revolves around you and I wouldn't want it any other goddamn way... And don't get me started on how beautiful you are... You may not see it, but I sure see it. The whole damn world sees it as well, sweetheart. For the rest of my life, I want to wake up everyday with you being by my side 'cause I can't see myself with anyone else. Will you make me the happiest man in the entire world and be my wife?" John asked wholeheartedly, while he pulled a box out of his box; he then opened it. The ring obviously screamed 'expensive.'

It was the shiniest ring I had ever seen; everything about it seemed so... John... I fucking loved it! My heart stopped as tears cascaded down my cheeks. I nodded my head, "Yes, yes, yes!"

The Baptist took the diamond ring from the box and placed it on my finger. Immediately, he stood up as I jumped, wrapping my legs around his waist. He instantly caught me and pulled me in a passionate kiss that was so full of love, while everyone clapped and cheered around us. Feeling happy was an understatement; I was euphoric... hell, I was over the fucking moon!

A few seconds later, John pulled away and looked at the camera for all of Hope County to see; it was right on us and he smiled brightly, "She said yes!" And pumped his fist in the air.

Oh John...

About A Year Later—

My dad was walking me down the aisle of Joseph's church.

"Rory, I just want you to know that Kim, Carmina, and I love you so much. And we're all proud of ya, girl." Dad stopped right before John and turned towards me. "I guess this means you're not gonna be mine anymore."

"Dad, I'll always be your daughter." I chuckled. "I'll visit you all the time, I promise... and I love you too."

"You better." He sniffed as I walked up to Joseph and John.

Standing in front of John, I gazed into his ocean blue eyes. Oh, how I fell head over heels for him... My heart skipped a beat at the sight of him. This is the first time I had seen him in a tuxedo and he looked so damn fine. Even his hair was gelled more than usual and styled in a quiff.

"You look very gorgeous, Rory." John complimented me with a wink as he stared at me in my dress.

"And you look very handsome, John." I replied, beaming up at the only man I'd ever loved.

The Father cleared his throat, "My family, we are gathered here today in the presence of these witnesses, John Seed and Rory Rye, in union commended to be honorable among all. Therefore, tis not to be entered into lightly, but reverently, solemnly, lovingly, passionately, and happily. This is a salient moment in their lives and it needs to be celebrated. During their time together, they have seen their love for one another and comprehension of their growth and blossom and now they choose to live out the rest of their lives as one. Into this— these two individuals of God present are now joined. If one can show just cause why they may not be joined together— let them speak now or hold their peace eternally... We must give thanks to God for allowing these two to be together, for it is His gift to the both of them... And now, the vows."

John grinned at me as he began, "I, John Seed, take you, Rory Rye, to be my wife, my best friend, my faithful partner, and my one true love, to have and to hold, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; from this day forward. In the presence of our friends and family, I offer you my solemn vow to be your faithful partner. I vow to love you unconditionally, to support you in your goals, to respect and honor you, to laugh with you, to cry alongside you, and to cherish you even after we march to Eden's Gate together. I give you my hand, my heart, and my love, forevermore."

"And I, Rory Rye, take you, John Seed, to be my husband, my best friend, my faithful partner, and my one true love, to have and to hold, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; from this day forward. In the presence of our friends and family, I offer you my solemn vow to be your faithful partner. I vow to love you unconditionally, to support you in your goals, to respect and honor you, to laugh with you, to cry alongside you, and to cherish you even after we march to Eden's Gate together. I give you my hand, my heart, and my love, forevermore."

Joseph chimed in, "Now, the rings!" He pulled out both of our rings on a fancy pillow as I took John's and John took mine.

"I, John Seed, give you, Rory Rye, this ring as an eternal symbol of my commitment and love to you." He put the beautiful diamond ring on my finger.

"I, Rory Rye, give you, John Seed, this ring as an eternal symbol of my commitment and love to you." I smiled up at John and slipped his ring on his finger.

Joseph now began the closing prayer, which I didn't hear because I was too focused on John.

Tears fell down my face just staring at my husband... my husband...

"By the power of God, I now pronounce you husband and wife... Brother John, you may now kiss the stunning bride." Joseph stated as he eyed the both of us.

John was staring deep into my eyes as he pulled me in for a passionate kiss. My hands went up to his broad shoulders, while his hands snaked around my waist. Sparks were flying every damn where as John's lips smashed against mine; everyone was cheering and clapping and whistling for us. All I felt in that moment was pure bliss and pure happiness; John and I's kisses were always magical, but this kiss was more than magical... Our kiss was over way too soon for my liking as we both had to pull away from each other.

"I now present to you, Mr. and Mrs. Seed!" The Father declared as the people that filled the pews stood up and cheered for us once more.

I craned my neck to look at John and his eyes were already on me.

"I love you so much, Rory, my wife."

"And I love you so much, John, my husband."
