He's The One

Chapter 20

Delilah POV (1 year later, wedding day)
~~~~~~~~~~

"Oh honey you look so beautiful." My mom says and Cece nods her head frantically, agreeing with my mother.

Planning this wedding was hell. I mean there was so much to do. But thank God my mom and John's mom helped with everything.

"Thank you guys. For being there for me through it all. I owe you." I say. "Fuck yeah." Cece says at the same time my mom says "it's fine." They look at each other and laugh.

I pull Cece into a tight hug. This is my Bestfriend since FOREVER. She's been through it ALL with me. Since the very first day of school. I love her so much and I'm gonna miss her during the honeymoon. 2 weeks in the beautiful beaches of Dominican Republic, where my roots are. When John found out, he immediately started planning our honeymoon there.

"I love you bestfriend" I whisper into her ear. She sniffles and hugs me back. "I love you too. You're gonna be an amazing wife and hopefully I'll be an aunt." She says and I pull back quickly. "Not just yet. I still have one more year of sports then I'm officially done. I'll move on to be... something else." I say, then the music starts. I breathe in and out deeply. We've practiced this a million times, but this still feels so surreal.

I push Cece to the front of the line and she sticks her tongue out at me then begins to walk out with Tyler.

"Good luck baby sis." He whispers to me and walks out with Cece.

Somebody grabs my arm and I turn to see my stepdad. I smile widely at him.

I chose to have him walk me down the aisle since my biological dad decided to get drunk the day I went over to ask him to walk me down. So I asked my stepdad and he gladly accepted. He's more of a dad to me than Derek could ever be. I love my stepdad.

A few moments later, it's our turn to walk down the aisle. He turns to me and smiles. "I love you Lilah bear." I giggle at my nickname. "I love you too dad." I say and we walk through the curtains.

John POV
~~~~~~~~~

When I saw her walk out from the curtains, I gasp lowly and hear Tyler laugh at me beside me. She's so beautiful. Her dress hugging her curves and flaring out at her waist. Her voluptuous chest contained but enough cleavage showing. She's just so beautiful.

"You better treat her right man." Tyler whispers to me. "I will." I say without taking my eyes off her.

Her stepdad walks her down the aisle and I already know the story behind that. But I wouldn't have it any other way. I'm more closer to him than Derek anyway.

When she finally gets to me, I realize she's not even wearing any makeup other than mascara. That's it. My beautiful future wife is standing in front me and I just love her so much.

As the priest begins talking, we're barely paying any attention. We stare each other in the eyes and a tear trails down her beautiful face. 'I love you' she mouths to me discreetly. I smile and mouth it back.

"Well ?" I hear the priest say. We both look at him and I turn to the crowd to see them looking expectantly. "Huh ?" I say to the priest.

Everybody chuckles including Lilah and I crack a smile. "Do you, Delilah Vasquez take John Rodrigues as your lawfully wedded husband ?" He says smiling. She turns to look me in the eyes. "I do." She says confidently. "And do you, John Rodrigues take Delilah Vasquez as your lawfully wedded wife." "I do." I say confidently back.

"I now pronounce you Mr. And Mrs. Rodrigues, husband and wife. You may kiss your bride." He says and pull Delilah into my arms and slowly lean down but too slowly for her liking. She grabs my face and smashes her lips to mine. The whole audience claps as we begin to make out.

"Okay man, you're practically eating her face." Tyler says, and we still don't stop.

Lilah presses her body to mine and that's when I pull back. I don't want a boner during our wedding reception. I'll save that later for our honeymoon.

"I love you Mr.Rodrigues." She whispers breathlessly. "I love you more Mrs.Rodrigues."
