The day had finally come. Vapor stood nervously at the altar, wearing a tailored suit that matched the soft blue of his eyes, his heart racing in anticipation. The garden was filled with family and friends, all gathered to witness the union of two hearts. He looked around, taking in the joy and excitement in the air. Everything felt perfect.

He glanced back at the entrance, waiting for his bride to make her entrance. Moments later, Rosie appeared, radiant in a flowing white gown that hugged her figure perfectly, her brown hair cascading elegantly over her shoulders. A soft breeze carried the sweet scent of the flowers, making the moment feel surreal.

As she walked down the aisle, the world around Vapor faded away. He could only see Rosie, her smile brighter than the sun. His heart swelled with love and admiration. Each step she took felt like it was in slow motion, and when she reached him, Vapor felt like he was in a fairytale.

“Wow,” he whispered, unable to hide his awe.

“You clean up nicely yourself,” Rosie replied, her cheeks flushed with happiness.

The officiant began the ceremony, speaking about love, commitment, and the beauty of partnership. Vapor barely heard the words; his focus was entirely on Rosie. They exchanged glances filled with affection, each moment drawing them closer.

As they exchanged vows, Vapor’s mind raced with thoughts of their journey together. They had faced challenges, insecurities, and misunderstandings, but through it all, their love had only grown stronger. The laughter, the shared moments, and the sweet kisses—they were all treasures in his heart.

“Vapor,” Rosie said, her voice steady and full of love. “You are my best friend and my greatest adventure. I promise to support you, love you, and be by your side for all the days of our lives.”

“I promise to always be there for you, to share my dreams with you, and to cherish every moment we have together,” Vapor replied, his voice filled with emotion.

As they slipped the rings onto each other’s fingers, the officiant declared them married. Vapor’s heart raced as he leaned in to kiss Rosie, sealing their vows. The guests erupted in applause, cheers, and joyous laughter filled the air, surrounding them in an aura of love and celebration.

The reception was filled with dancing, laughter, and heartfelt speeches. Vapor and Rosie shared their first dance, the world around them blurring into a haze of joy. They twirled and swayed under the twinkling fairy lights, lost in each other's eyes.

Time seemed to fly as they celebrated with their friends and family. The night was a blur of joy, cake, and endless smiles. Vapor felt like the luckiest person in the world, knowing he would spend the rest of his life with Rosie.

However, as the festivities continued, a sense of unease began to creep in. Vapor felt a strange disconnection, as if something wasn’t quite right. He glanced around at the happy faces of their loved ones, feeling a knot tightening in his stomach.

Suddenly, everything around him began to fade. The laughter and music distorted, blurring into a surreal haze. He looked down at his hand, noticing Rosie’s ring slipping away, dissolving into a soft mist.

“Vapor?” he heard her voice call out, distant and echoing. Panic rose within him. “Vapor, where are you?”

“Rosie!” he shouted, but his voice echoed back to him, void of the warmth he desperately sought.

With a jolt, Vapor awoke in his bed, heart racing. He shot up, gasping for air, his eyes darting around the familiar room. The sunlight streamed through the curtains, illuminating the space with a soft glow.

His heart sank as reality hit him; it had all been a dream. A beautiful dream, but a dream nonetheless. Vapor buried his face in his hands, feeling a mix of disappointment and relief wash over him.

“Just a dream…” he murmured, the weight of his emotions settling on his shoulders.

He lay back down, staring at the ceiling. The vision of Rosie in her wedding dress lingered in his mind, her laughter echoing in his ears. It had felt so real. He wished he could turn that dream into reality, but for now, it was just a wish.

A soft knock at the door interrupted his thoughts. “Vapor, are you awake?” It was his younger sister, Amber.

“Yeah, I’m awake,” he replied, forcing a smile.

Amber peeked in, her face lighting up. “I made breakfast! Come eat before it gets cold!”

As he climbed out of bed, he took a moment to gather his thoughts. Although it had all been a dream, the feelings were real. He realized that he truly loved Rosie, and he wanted to make that dream a reality someday.

Vapor walked downstairs, where the scent of pancakes filled the air. He joined Amber at the table, and as they ate, he couldn’t shake the image of Rosie from his mind.

“Hey, do you think I could invite Rosie over later?” he asked, glancing at his sister.

“Of course! That sounds fun!” Amber replied, her eyes sparkling with excitement. “You two are really cute together.”

Vapor felt a warmth spread through him at her words. “Thanks, Amber. I think so too.”

As they finished breakfast, Vapor’s mind raced with possibilities. Maybe one day, he would find a way to create that dream he had. He wanted to give Rosie everything—love, support, and the promise of a beautiful future together.

Later that day, Vapor picked up his phone and sent a message to Rosie: “Hey! I had the craziest dream about us getting married. Can we hang out later? I’d love to talk to you.”

He hit send, a smile creeping onto his face. He was ready to turn that dream into a reality, one step at a time.

And with that hopeful thought, he embraced the day, determined to make his dreams come true.
