Broken

Ch. 24 Forever and Always

Wes's POV

After the accident I was with Ari all the time, I was so worried something would happen to her. "Wes really, I'm fine I promise!" She shouted at me as she tried to get off the couch by herself.

I watched as she gritted her teeth and whimpered as she tried to stand up. "No, babe please I can help you." I said reaching towards her.

"No! No more helping me, I'm sick of it! I feel like a helpless, worthless, piece of shit!" She yelled as she stood up on her feet. My jaw dropped as she said what she said.

"Babe...I never ever wanted you too feel that way...I'm so sorry, I ju-" she cut me off before I could finish what I was saying. "Don't apologize, it's not your fault it's all mine. I always am in trouble, I always need someone.."

I watched as she crumbled, her face turned from angry to upset in a matter of seconds. The tears began to run down her face as she fell backwards on to the couch. I sat next to her and grabbed her hand and intertwined our fingers.

"We all need someone, without you I'm a mess..I can't function without you, and I don't know what I would do if you disappeared. I have never loved someone like I love you, it's like my body aches when yours does. My world isn't okay unless you are, and guess what?" I said to Ari looking in her beautiful eyes.

"What?" She said sniffling and looking at me. I wiped the tears from her cheeks, "I love you with all my heart, and I would give up everything for you. You are a strong, amazing, caring, loving soul. And don't let anyone tell you otherwise, especially yourself." I said meaning every word that came out of my mouth.

I watched as a grin etched it's way onto her lips, she chuckled and leaned into my shoulder. "I love you Ari," I said leaning down and kissing her lips softly.

"I love you more," she said pulling away from the kiss and kissing my lips again. "Can we get married already? I just want to be able to call you my wife already," I said smiling against her lips.

"Why don't we get married?" She said looking at me. "What do you mean? We are going to get married aren't we?" I said my breath hitching in my throat.

"Why are we waiting? Let's get married, I just want to spend the rest of my life with you." She said looking straight into my eyes.

I smiled and leaned in kissing her again. "Okay, we'll start planning the wedding then." I said feeling overjoyed and excited.

3 Months Later

Ari's POV

I woke up smiling to myself, today was the day. Today was the day I was going to get married. I couldn't believe it, it was finally here.

I stretched and got out of bed, Wes was already gone. It's bad luck to see a bride the day of the wedding, I just wanted so badly to see him already and I hadn't even been up five minutes.

"Bella Bear!" I said walking towards her room. She groaned and turned over in her bed, "Come on sleepy head get up! Today's a big day." I said yanking the covers off her bed.

She rubbed her eyes and looked at me grumpily. "Gosh we are related, you hate getting up early just as much as I do." I laughed reaching down and scooping her into my arms.

I walked us to the kitchen and set her down at the table. I poured some cereal for her and sat down at the table with her while she ate. "Are you excited?" She said grinning at me.
