The Business Proposal (A Love Story)

9. The Big Day

The month went by fast, and now it's their big day. The day that Katherine Cline turns into Katherine Worthy. She was excited. Everything was set up in the back yard, and she was getting her makeup and hair done. She hasn't seen Cole today, but was excited for when she did. The yard was decorated with tables, chairs, lights, even a dance floor was put in, for their first dance. Tables were lined with silver table clothes, with pretty candles and lights on the table. She was daydreaming about their honeymoon when Susan says, "it's almost time, are you ready?", she was. She was ready for this. She was ready to spend the rest of her life with Cole by her side. They'd have kids together, and build a life together that was perfect. She could see it now. "Yes I'm ready. How do I look?", she asks Susan. "Like the prettiest princess I've ever seen." Susan replied with a huge grin across her face.
The music started playing, and she could hear all the chatter go silent. Then it was her turn to walk out. She comes through the door, and Cole looks up at her. "Wow.", he says. She looked beautiful, he could feel tears start to escape his eyes, he was crying. This was the moment he had been waiting for. The moment he got to marry the girl of his dreams, and she was the most beautiful girl in the world. Katherine makes it to the alter, and Cole says to her, "you look absolutely gorgeous, my love.". "And you look like my Prince Charming.", she replies to him. It was time. It was really time.
"Cole Worthy, do you take Ms. Katherine Cline to be your lawfully wedded wife, in sickness and in health, for rich or for poor, for better or for worse.", says the preacher. "I do." Cole replies with a huge grin. "Katherine Cline, do you take Mr. Cole Worthy to be your lawfully wedded husband, in sickness and in health, for rich or poor, for better or for worse.", "I do.", she says happily. "You may kiss the bride!". They kiss passionately, and leave the alter, they were preparing for their first dance together as a married couple. "I love you Mrs. Worthy." Cole says with a smile. "I love you too, Mr. Worthy." She replies back. They make their way to the dance floor, as the song "marry me" plays over the radio. "May I have this dance?", he says as he holds his hand out to her. She takes his hand in hers and the dance, for what felt like hours, she felt like she was in her own world dancing with him. She felt safe with him. He was her home. After the song and dance was over, it was time for cake and wine. They head over to the table, and cut the cake together, Cole cuts a small slice to feed to Katherine, she opens her mouth to take a bite just as Cole smears the piece of cake all over her face. They both bust up laughing, and take a drink of their wine. They go have a seat at the table, and talk about how they're ready to spend their lives together. And how excited for their honeymoon they was. Cole had planned to fly them to Paris in the morning for their honeymoon, and they'd be gone for a week. He got them a honeymoon suit at the Royal Castle, the best motel there was in Paris. It was going to be perfect. Just like their wedding day. They opened their gifts, and thanked everyone who came, and just as the last guest was leaving Cole swoops her up and kisses her passionately carrying her inside to their room. He was going to make love, to his now wife. She was the perfect girl, and he couldn't wait to spend the rest of his life with her. He never knew he could have so much love for a woman before, until he met Katherine. They get to the room, and shut the lights off, Cole slips Katherine's dress off, and they make sweet love for hours. It really was the perfect day, and the perfect way to end their night. Now the next thing was, be on their plane at 7:00am to head to Paris.
