Final Chapter: The Wedding

~1 Year Later~

Kayla's POV:

It finally came....my wedding day is finally here. After so many ups and down in Nathan and I's relationship and now I finally get to marry the man of my dreams,

"Annnnnddd...we're done!" Nareesha said as she finished my makeup, Kelsie was behind me putting the finishing touches on my hair. Kelsie giggled,

"I'm done with your hair too!" She said as I felt the last curl fall and feel warm against my exposed back. Kelsie and Nareesha moved out of the way.

I was now facing all of my bridesmaids, 6 in total and my little bridesmaid Anna-Grace (who was now 3 along with her brother) in their long, sleeveless pastel pink bridesmaids dresses and matching flats.

They all stood with they're hands over their mouths. So I either looked very beautiful or ridiculously ugly. Kelsie turned me around to face the big mirror in the room I was sat in front of.

My reaction was the same as the girls. My hand flew over my mouth careful not to touch my lips to avoid smudging my lip gloss.

The girl in front of me was gorgeous. Clear skin, flawless makeup, healthy and silky hair styles perfectly. I couldn't believe the girl was me. I felt a tug on the shorts I was currently wearing. I looked down to see Anna-Grace. She smiled her tiny toothy smile,

"You look pretty mommy." She said. I smiled and fought back the tears as I picked her up and say her on my lap,

"Thank you sweetie. Do you think Daddy will think I look pretty?" I asked. Anna-Grace nodded and giggled as I lightly tickled her tummy,

"Nathan is going to drop dead when he sees you Kayla!" My friend Jessie, one of my bridesmaids, said. I giggled as I got up to go put on my dress,

"I hope not or I'll have to call the wedding off." I joked. We all giggled and the girls helped me very slowly and carefully into my gown. Jesse and Erica helped me slip on my cream colored heels. I added my accessories and tiny rose-gold tiara. Nareesha and Jocelyn helped clip in my veil. I took another look in the mirror. I could feel the tears coming on and so could the girls,

"Don't cry you'll ruin your makeup!" All 6 of my bridesmaids and Anna-Grace said at the same time. We all laughed. I looked at the time. We all made our way to the door of the altar where my Daddy was. Daddy smiled when he saw me. He looked like he was going to cry. I smiled and hugged him,

"Aw Daddy don't cry...there's nothing to be sad about." I whispered. We let go and he laughed slightly,

"I know Honey Bee. I'm just glad you're marrying the right man. And to be perfectly honest I'm a little heartbroken that my baby is becoming a women." He said as he wiped his years with a tissue and held my hand. I smiled and stroked Daddy's cheek a little,

"Daddy I'll always be your little girl no matter how old I get. I'll always be Daddy's little girl." I said quietly still hopelessly trying not to cry. Daddy smiled. We stood there hugging for a moment before 'A Moment Like This' by Leona Lewis starting playing. (Fun Fact: This was the song my sister has played when she walked down the isle at her wedding.)

Daddy and I linked arms. I took a few deep breaths as the doors opened. Everything from Anna-Grace throwing her petals to the bridesmaids and the groomsmen walking out was a blurry and very very happy mixture until Daddy and I reached where Nathan and I were to step onto the altar.

Nathan look absolutely gorgeous. His grey suit and pink tie that matched the bridesmaids dresses looked very sexy on him. His hair was in his perfect quiff. He was crying as well which made a single tear run down my face before I stopped remembering the girls' warnings in the room.

Daddy gave me a sweet little kiss on the cheek as we unlocked arms and he gave a firm hand shake with Nathan and whispered a quick little something to him as Nathan said something back before daddy went and sat down with Momma and Nathan held his arm out.

I happily locked my arm with Nathan and the service began. Then it came to our vows. Nathan pulled a note out of his inside blazer pocket. He grabbed the microphone from the minister and took a breath before he began,

"Kayla Katherine Snow....there are so many wonderful and amazing things that I could say about you and our relationship but sadly I don't have the universe's time to spend to I'll just say some of the most important. When I met you...my whole world turned around in....the best way that it could have possibly turned. I was going through a somewhat depressing state before I met you. But after I spilled that caramel frapp on you five years ago, you have blessed me with all the love in the world, two beautiful children, and the ultimate grace of your presence. I promise to love you and care for you and our children until the day I completely stop breathing. I love you and I am so blessed to be able to spend the rest of my life with a wonderful woman like you." Nathan finally finished as his vows and slid the paper back into his inside blazer pocket. I smiled as Kelsie handed me the paper I had prepared. I sighed and giggled slightly before I began,

"Nathan James Sykes, you have saved me in so many ways..I don't know how I could repay you for all that you have done for me and our children. You respect me and care for me and love me and there is nothing I more that I could have asked from you than that. My work has been so much brighter and happier since you came into my life. You've introduced me to so many amazing people and things that I will remember for the rest of my life. You've helped me through the hardest times in my life, the easier and the absolute worst. I also promise to love you and care for you and our children until the day I die. I love you and I am so happy that I am able to spend the rest of my life with a wonderful man like you." I couldn't help but let a few tears slip. I'm an emotional person. You can help things like that.

Nathan and I turned back to the minister. We both said our 'I Do' s. We turned back towards each other once more. Nathan moved the hair from my face. We both leant in and bang! It was like we were having our first kiss over again. We pulled away as both mouthed I love you over everyone's cheers.
