Say Yes

33

   Aaron finally sat Daniel down and talked to him about handing the company over to him. Ive spoken to both him and Rebecca a couple of times, but I keep it short knowing they still worry about my safety. Aaron and Daniel still have ties to the mafia, but I know how hard it is to leave that life behind. I find myself strolling into the kitchen and glancing over the calendar pinned up and an audible gasp leaves my mouth. Hands snake around my waist and a chin plops on my shoulder. "What's wrong my love?" I point at the calendar, "Our wedding is next week".

   He chuckles and spins me to face him. "Yeah, you're not getting cold feet are you?" A slight pout finds it's way on his face and I smile shaking my head. "Of course not you bafoon" I smack his chest playfully and he kisses my forehead. "And where would you like to go for our honeymoon, because you never told me". I stare into his eyes with a warm smile and bite my lip. He caresses my cheek and pulls my lip out from the grasp of my teeth. "Hm? Where do you want to go" His mouth came close to mine and I let out a shaky breath. "Anywhere you want to go. Just being next to you I'll be over the top happy". He crashed his lips on mine then pulled away.

   "How does Italy sound, considering you want to run away there" I grinned wide and he chuckled. "Italy it is". He took my hand and interlocked our fingers walking me to the living room. He plopped himself on the couch, then pulled me onto his lap. He swirled the ends of my hair around his fingers and relaxed with me in his arms. "I love you so fucking much it kills me" My cheeks heat up and I smile at his stone cold serious face. I caress his cheek and peck him before nuzzling my head in the crook of his neck and muffling "I love you too."

Aarons POV:

   My hearts beating so fucking fast, I never thought a women could make me feel the way Stella does. She's not only captured me, but my heart. I wipe my sweaty hands down my pants and Daniel puts his hand on my shoulder. "Dude why are you so nervous? This is everything you wanted". I let out a sigh and closed my eyes nodding. "I know I know, but what if she says no?" Daniel damn near had a heart attack from laughing so hard. "Stella? Saying no to you? Please Aaron get your head out of your ass". I rolled my eyes and turned to look at the aisle. 

   Stella talked to me about how none of our parents would be here and how she would be walking down the aisle by herself so I put my ego aside for her and called someone to help out with that. He obviously said yes because he loves Stella like a daughter and a part of me was happy she at least had him as a parent figure. And right on cue Stella came waltzing down the aisle with her arm hooked around Mickeys. Her eyes instantly went to mine and I felt all the air leave my body much like it did when I looked into them for the first time that day she stepped into my office. 

   Mickey handed her off to me and we stood before each other about to become bonded for life. The priest went on and on, most of it I tuned out because I was just focused on Stella. "Huh?" Everyone laughed and Stella had a smirk on her face. "Mr. Anderson I asked if you take Mrs.Stella Clark to be your lawfully wedded wife" I widened my eyes and turned to Stella who was trying hard not to laugh. "Of course I do" She smiled wide and shook her head. "And Mrs.Clark do you take Mr.Aaron Anderson to be your lawfully wedded husband" He smile softened as she started int my eyes. "I do" A tear fell from her eye and I quickly wiped to away.

   "Perfect, I pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss your bride" Without hesitation I grabbed the back of Stella neck and pulled her into me planting my lips on hers, then swiftly dipping her without disconnecting our mouths. Cheers form friends and family erupted and Daniel gave me a fist bump before I threw Stella over my shoulder and ran out of the chapel with her. She yelped and smacked my butt right before I threw her in the car. "Where are we going?" I smirked at her and buckled her belt for her before closing the door and heading to the drivers seat. "Italy my love" Her mouth dropped open and I chuckled. "But what about the party and dinner?".
