The Devils Bride [Eddie Munson]

The Devil's Bride: Part Thirteen

Months have gone by and mine and Eddie’s house is fully decorated. I took up a job at Family Video with Steve while Eddie works at The Palace. His band has upgraded from 5 drunks to a whole crowd. He plays every Saturday and I haven't missed a show yet. But along with getting more fans you get even more people that hate you. Eddies been struggling with it but he knows he has me.

All Eddie’s been talking about recently is having a little girl. 
He said he'd want to name her “Delilah Elizabeth Munson.”

I think that's adorable and I love the name but I don't know if i'd be able to handle a tiny me. 

Our wedding is in two days and I'm beyond excited. Me, Joyce and Nancy went out to find a wedding dress two weeks ago. I've been counting down the days since and I can't wait. 

As I'm cooking Eddie walks in the front door and runs up to me. 

“How was work sweetie?” I say as he kisses my neck. He pulls away and says “Eh the usual, dealt with little shits and cleaned the games.” He laughs and walks to the couch, sits down and turns the tv on. 

“Babe, where are your cigarettes?” I breathe. 

His head spins around and looks at me with confusion. “You don't smoke unless you're stressed, what's going on darling?” 

“Just the wedding and everything.” I say. He gets up and grabs my hand and we go outside. We sit on the porch and each light a cigarette. 

He wraps his arm over my shoulder and says “I can't wait to see your dress, it's killing me.”

I laugh and kiss his check, a breeze hits me and sends a shiver down my body, He takes his jacket off and wraps it around my cold body. I lay my head on his shoulder and he picks me up, then carries me to our bed. He lays me down and lays beside me.
We both drift off to sleep peacefully in eachothers warm and loving arms.

-2 days later-

I can't stay still for more than five seconds. 

“Calm down Attie, there's still two more hours till the wedding.” Nancy says.

“Exactly! Two hours! That's barely any time!” I panic. 

She sits me down in the chair and says “You're going to look beautiful alright.”

I sit there wondering what Eddie is doing right now. Is he thinking about me? Our future?

Nancy finishes my hair and makeup. 

It's time for the dress. My heart is beating out of my chest and my head feels as if it's going to explode. 

20 minutes go by and it's my time to walk out. I hear the music start and people start to walk out. I let El be the flower girl since she was the youngest. So after her I knew it was my turn and I couldn't believe it. 

I start to walk out and the second I walk in to where everyone could see me mine and Eddie’s eyes met. 

His eyes filled with tears as he looked at me in my pearl white dress. 

He looked amazing. I couldn't help but let out tears of my own.

I walk down the aisle to Eddie. “You look stunning” He says as he smiles at me with teary eyes.

We continue on with the wedding. I went from being someone who thought Eddie munson was a murderer. To now being the person that loves him more than life itself.  

I zone out for a split second then hear the words “I do.” My heart skips a beat and my knees go weak. It is now my turn and I look Eddie in his beautiful glassy dark brown eyes and say “I do.”

We kiss and everyone cheers.
This is most definitely the best day of my life.
What once was a little girl with depressing hopes and dreams is now the strong woman that little girl wishes she always was. 

“Atlas Munson, I love you so much.” Eddie whispers as we are walking to the car.
His last name with my first sends chills down my spine. I can't believe we did it. This feels like a dream. 

We always knew we had eachother even if this whole town thought he was a cult leader, murderer, a freak, or the devil.
What only matters to him was that through my eyes he was my entire world.

Even if he was those things, oh well looks like I'm…

The devil's bride.
