Nathan~
It's utterly surreal to think that just thirty-six hours ago, I exchanged vows, celebrated with our closest family and friends, and now I'm basking in the beauty of Santorini, Greece with my wife.
The mere thought of it still makes me chuckle with disbelief. I can't help but repeat the words 'my wife' in my head, savoring the sweetness of it all.
As I step out onto the luxurious main deck of the yacht, the warm sun on my skin and the gentle lapping of the water against the hull create a sense of tranquility.
And then, I see her.
My wife.
Relaxing on a plush lounger, her beauty takes my breath away. I freeze, my sunglasses shielding my gaze as I take in the sight of her. The baby blue one-piece swimsuit accentuates her curves, and her knees are elegantly elevated, showcasing her flawless skin. Luckily, her eyes are closed, unaware of my intense admiration.
But suddenly, she speaks up, her voice husky and playful. "Are you just going to stand there and watch me?"
She peeks at me through one open eye, catching me off guard.
I feel a flush rise to my cheeks as I chuckle, my eyes locked on hers.
"Don't stare too hard," she teases, a sly smile spreading across her face.
I take a step closer, my heart beating faster, and take a seat beside her. "You caught me," I admit, my voice barely above a whisper.
Her dimpled smile is radiant, and I'm captivated by her sparkling brown eyes.
She sits up straight, taking a sip of lemonade from her glass, her movements graceful and fluid.
"Is that helping?" I ask, concern etched on my face as I recall her nausea since we landed. This morning she shoved me out of the the bathroom and began puking, luckily it hasn't happened again.
Madison nods, her eyes never leaving mine, but doesn't respond.
"Have you eaten anything yet?" I ask, knowing she skipped breakfast and just laid in bed after the bathroom incident. A pang of worry fills me.
"Not yet," she replies, her voice soft.
I stand up, my eyes never leaving hers. "I'll have the chef prepare something for you."
As I watch her smile at me, I'm struck by her aura, beauty, and her elegance in this moment. I'm filled with gratitude and awe, knowing that this woman is now my wife.

Madison~
After checking in to our suite, Nathan and I went sightseeing and shopping, taking in the beautiful culture around us.
I exit a small pharmacy and catch him standing by the entrance, his attention on the oceanic view.
"I need to use the bathroom." I tell him.
"Alright, I'll wait here on the bench." He smiles at me, and I glance at him one last time before walking away but he grabs my hand, "Are you alright?"
His touch easing my mind for just a few seconds.
Eventhough I can't see his eyes behind his shades, I know they are filled with of worry, "I'm all good, Nathan. I'll be back." I give him a small smile.
His grasp loosens on my hand, and I walk away to the nearest bathroom.
I find an open stall and lock it once I'm in.
