the girl

Chapter 16 - Noah

I am so in love with her and in just a couple hours, I will be married to her. My whole family is here and her friends are here. I wish her sister was here though. Not for me, but for Claire. She would've loved her sister here, and she would've loved her parents here. I know she has some of her close friends here, but it's still not her family. An official from the Contrality walks into my room while I'm lost in thought.

"Excuse me Noah, sorry to interrupt, but we just need to know if you are ready and if you are able to get Nicholas ready as well?" He looks so serious as if he's done this thousands of times, I'm sure he has but still. 

"Yes sir, I am ready and you can send Nicholas in and I will get him ready." He just nods his head and walks away. A couple minutes later Nicky walks in. He is smiling from ear to ear and it makes my heart race. "Hello there handsome, are you ready to get dressed?"

"Yes I am. Mommy looks so pretty too! I love her!" That sentence just warms my heart. The thought that this little boy, who is mine, loves Claire as much as I do makes me so happy. I am sure he would've loved Emmy too, but something about this makes me feel like everything was worth it. All of the rule breaking and all of the heartbreak was 100% worth it just to have the family I am about to have. 

"Okay then lets get this suit on you and get to your pretty mommy okay?" He nods his head and I get him dressed. I comb his hair and tie his shoes. He is too handsome. He grabs my hand and we both look in the mirror for the allotted 2 minutes. We then make our way to the ceremony hall. 

Everybody is looking at me and it makes me feel very self conscious. I know my family is looking at me and Nicky and smiling, but I can bring myself to look at anyone but Nicky right now. I am so nervous as I wait for my beautiful bride to be to come through those 2 doors.
