Emma's POV

So in 4 weeks, me and my girlfriend Y/n are set to get married. But here's the deal.. Y/n, my girlfriend, is away. Where, you might be wondering?

Well Y/n is a solider for the US army. And after being promised release from duty for a year or so, she got called back early. A month after we planned our wedding and she hasn't come back yet.

It's been 6 months. And i don't know what to do. I mean every time she leaves, I'm terrified she'll never come back.

But somehow she always does. But i don't know if she'll be back in time. Or even back at all.

We've been having calls as regularly as we can but it just isn't the same y'know?

We're on call right now.

"We're stationed in France right now. God i miss you so much." Y/n says.

"I miss you too. So much. The last 6 months have been so shit." I say.

"All that's getting me through this is seeing your face at the end of it. I don't know if I'm gunna make it back in time for the wedding." Y/n says.

"I know. If you can't make it back in time then we can do it another time. We can always reschedule it. All i care about is you making it back alive and with every limb." I say.

"Well bad news for the latter half. I'm missing a finger." Y/n says.

"Aw no way really?" I say.

"Yeah i know. But it is a pinkie. So the ring will still go on. So dont worry about that." Y/n says.

I hear her name get called.

"I'm sorry baby but I've gotta go. I miss you. I love you so much and i cannot wait to see you again in person." Y/n says.

"I love you too. Please stay alive." I say.

"I've done quite well at that so i think i will do that." Y/n says.

"I love you." I say.

"I love you too." Y/n says.

The call ends.

It's now the day of the wedding and Y/n still isn't back yet. But Jenna is insisting that we still go and i still wear the dress.

The whole ceremony is gunna happen and yet I'm not even gunna get married. Way to feel shit on the biggest day of my life :D

I'm just getting ready.

"Jenna i don't think this is a good idea. I'm just gunna feel really shit." I say.

"No you wont. Just trust me." Jenna says.

I sigh. Soon enough it's time go out. And just not see Y/n. Yay me!

Jenna's walking me out. We make our way to the room. I'm not even looking at the end of the aisle.

"Emma. Look down there a second." Jenna says.

I sigh and look and...

OH MY FUCKING GOD SHE'S HERE!!

I don't even think twice before running down the aisle, in heals, and jumping into her arms. She's still in her uniform. She must've only just got back.

The second i jump into her arms, she wraps them around me and every single person cheers and applauds. I don't wanna let go.

I pull back and kiss her, closing my eyes the second she kisses back.

I pull back from the kiss.

"Hey baby." Y/n says.

"I missed you so much." I say.

Tears are completely streaming down my eyes. Y/n wipes my eyes.

"So i think this might be a good time for us to finally get married. Don't you?" Y/n says.

I laugh.

"How the hell are you even here?" I ask.

"Well i got lucky. And y'know, we finished the mission in time." Y/n says

We get the ceremony started. I never pictured my wedding day like this. Marrying the love of my life in her military uniform.

But i will take this for definite.

"Do you, Y/n Y/l/n take Emma Myers to be your lawful wedded wife?"

Y/n smiles.

"I do." Y/n says.

"Do you, Emma Myers take Y/n Y/l/n to be your lawful wedded wife?"

I smile.

"I do." I say.

"And now, with the power vested in me, i pronounce you wife and wife. You may now kiss."

And we do. It's a very long kiss. But i do not care at all because i get to kiss her. After 6 long months, obviously barring the kiss we just had.

We pull back from the kiss. We did put the rings on by the way. I di forget to mention that but we put the rings on.

After the after party, me and Y/n are at home.

"I can't believe i got married in the uniform I've been shot in." Y/n says.

I laugh.

"Wait you got shot?" I ask.

"Well yeah. I'm not invisible babe." Y/n says.

We get into our pyjamas.

"Oh man i have missed these pyjamas." Y/n says.

We get into the bed.

"Oh I've missed this so much more." Y/n says.

Then we cuddle.

"I've missed this the most. This is so nice. The pillow smells like me." Y/n says.

"You've been gone for 6 months.  I couldn't take a day. I sprayed your pillows with your spray so i could just pretend you were here." I say.

Y/n kisses me. It's a quick kiss.

"Don't worry. They've promised me at least a year. So we can do whatever you want to do together for the next year. Maybe even longer." Y/n says.

"I really hope you're back for more than just a year. I've just missed you so much." I say.

"Thinking about coming home to you and making you my wife made it so much easier for me to get through it." Y/n says.

We don't sleep the whole night. We just cuddle and she talks about the last 6 months. Telling me everything. And i lay there and listen because I've been waiting for her to come home and tell me everything the whole time.

The next 4 years were a little sporadic. But after the final deployment and return, she never had to go out again.

After 4 years of on and off military work, she was done. Back home for good.

I'm married to a military veteran. That's pretty cool if you ask me.

But now it's us two forever and i love her so much.

Helloo 👋 . Hope you enjoyed!
