It was always you

FOREVER

SELENA

The makeup artists was doing last touch-ups, it seems like I am an actresses, just preparing for the director to say, "Action!" but I was really mad at my mother for inviting them.

I knew mom will not be at peace until Camilla and Ethan will not attend my wedding, she requested them to cut their honeymoon short to attend it, I don't even have slightest idea what she's upto, but I am very well aware of one thing that they're going to create a seen at my wedding because I am the reason of there marriage, she and Ethan were never the same part of one coin but completely opposite , I don't want to get embarrassed in front of Emerson and my relatives once again, and I am very well aware of the fact that they are are attending the wedding just for entertainment, I am already trending on number one on their gossip list.

Here, Camellia was glaring in my direction, because according to her I lied being kidnapped by some mysterious guy on my wedding day, and now she's to handle that psycho Ethan and his family with stone age thinking, her face says it all, but I was relieved that she wasn't in a position to speck in front of Diana, my knight in the shining armor, there were times when I found both of them fighting because of me.

But my relief was short-lived when, Diana got a phone call and it was just me , the makeup artists and Camellia was left in the room, "So, Miss Walters you are finally getting what you've desired. "

"By stealing, someone else's freedom." She spoke with so much hatred, I knew she's angry at me and she had every right to be, because the kidnapper made the situation, so bad. If I ever discovered the man behind that face, I swear I'm going to kill him, for straining my already strained relationship with my half-sister,me as well as the makeup artists, kept a poker face, I felt embarrassed but chose to hide it.

"Well, Congrats to you and your partner in crime Emerson. "

Emerson

It's my wedding, that's something that sounds alien to my ears, I never wished to be married, and never in my life imagined myself to be a groom, waiting for his bride in the aisle but here I am, watching my Sally with her head down with her dad and little Lily with her few friends walking infront of them, Peter standing beside me.

Sometimes life gave you something, more than you wish for, while the other time it snatches something to replace it with better, I've experienced both of them in my life.

I found myself nervous for the first time in my life, as I glanced at the woman dressed as my bride, she appeared to be an angel, being my saviour from all problems of my life, she is almighty's gift to me,as I glanced at her,all the moments I've spent with her started playing in my head like a movie, within no time, I found wetness in my eyes, the woman has all the qualities to be my partner for life but I hurt her innumerable times but then too she gave me a special place in her life and lastly gave me the honour to be ,her husband, her partner it's really a privilege to share my life with a woman like, Selena Walters.

Brad, handed,her hand to me and I took it with a smile,her hands are still soft as they used to be in past, when I played with them when we used to lay down in garden watching sky filled with stars.I glanced at her face,and was left astonished by witnessing, the old blush,Sally Walters, literally blushed, her eyes were at the floor,I felt a desire to claim her right here but, I know my limits.

I lost the right the day, I broke-up with her and today even if I want to have a real relationship with her I can't because of my pride, moreover I don't think, Selena wants us to reunite internally, she's doing all this for kids, and I for three of them and for myself.

I found her eyes , scanning my face and when my eyes meet hers , she gave me a "looking handsome look" ,I smiled and gave her "Looking beautiful look" , it's not that she doesn't looked beautiful before today, but today for some reason, I can't lift my eyes from hers, the feeling of possessiveness that I used to feel five years back,  just returned.

I don't believed in God's existence before, I met her but if God wouldn't have been in picture, then neither of would have existed. I looked towards the sky and thanked her God, in this holy place for making me witness this day.

"You may now kiss the bride" I found the priest speaking at his sentence, I found horror in Selena's eyes, I slightly felt bad, for making her feel uncomfortable infront of me, but it'll be better if I stay away from her.

"Don't worry, Selena,I'll not kiss you until you want me to." I whispered in her ears, and there was short-term relief on her face.

I removed the veil that covered her face, and bent down to the level of her lips ,and pressed my lips against her soft once, although we didn't kissed, but I felt, same old nostalgia.

"Now I pronounce you,man and wife." Everyone cheered for us, but I don't think, Selena was happy with all of this, talking about myself, I don't know how to feel, whether to feel happy or to feel sad because my lover is not happy.
