"Austin he was just helping me with my makeup, I was crying okay? Thats why its smudged." I call out to him desperately hoping he will turn around this second and just hold me in his arms, but he isn't stopping. He just keeps walking further and further down the corridor. I decide I can't let him get away like this, I need him in my life now more than ever. I start running towards him as quick as my legs will take me. I grab his arm forcing him to turn around and look at me. "I love you Austin, since the moment I laid my eyes on you. You are the person I want to be with for the rest of my life. I want to grow old with you, have children with you, see the world with you but I can't do that if you're not here. I can't put into words how much I need you." I let out hot and fiery tears mercilessly falling down my face. His expression softened as he too started to have tears build up in his crystal blue eyes. "I love you." I whisper into his chest, gripping onto him. I felt his arms wrap around me gently, pulling me closer into his chest. I looked up a him and pulled him into a kiss. "I don't want to fight anymore Aus. Baby I just want to be happy with you." I say desperately. "Me too." He says back.

"Jasmine, can you help me with my heels?" I ask sitting on the edge of the hotel bed. "Yeah, coming now." She calls out from the bathroom before hurriedly rushing over to me, tying my heel straps. "You look gorgeous girl; I can't believe the day is here." She says smiling and brushing down my dress. "I know, it's insane." I laugh. "Your mum would be so proud right now, and your dad." She looked at me with concerned eyes. "I hope so" I reply taking in a deep breath, attempting to push down the nerves. "Take a sip of this, keep the nerves down," Jasmine says offering a shot of whiskey. I take it out of her hand willingly and shoot it, my face contorting at the heated trail it created at the back of my throat. "No gum, don't want Austin tasting that." She said popping a piece of gum into my hand. I placed it in my hand and started chewing. "We have twenty minutes to finish getting ready and get there. The reception is ten minutes from here." I say checking my phone. Jasmine begins touching up my makeup and fixing my dress up properly before we set off to the church. 

We run out of the hotel, and I quickly jump into the limo. My stomach is doing backflips and my thoughts are coming and going at a thousand miles per hour. All of my worries seem so become less predominant when Jasmine places her hand on my lap and mouths the words. "You can do this" I smile at her before the limo pulls up outside the church. Jasmine links her arm with mine and we make our way in. The music begins to play as I begin to walk down the aisle. Austin turns to look at me, his eyes widen, and all of my worries dissipate. I smile widely at him, and he smiles back at me. In this moment I don't think I could be any more in love. Me and Jasmine finally make it up to the altar and she kisses my cheek and hands me over to Austin who looks over the moon. My eyes begin to well up and he reaches forward and used his finger to dry my eyes.  

The priest starts saying all of his stuff but its all drowned out by the pure happiness I feel looking into Austins eyes knowing this is the man I will be spending the rest of my life with. After some time I hear the priest say "...and now onto the vows." I take a deep breath as Austin pulls out a small piece of paper from his pocket. 

He clears his throat and begins.
