Love story

26

*TOBYS POV*

I don't know why I didn't say the vows that I had written out. Caleb went to hand me the crumpled up piece of paper and I just realised that I didn't need to read from a script to show everyone how I felt about Spencer. What I needed to do was speak from my heart, so that's what I did.

When I began to speak I saw Spencer smile. Just a small smile at first, but as I spoke, it grew, pressing her rosy cheeks up and slowly revealing her teeth, like a pearl necklace. Finally the smile reached her teary eyes, lightening them, causing them to crinkle at the edges. A strand of curly chocolate coloured hair hung loosely by her jaw and a tear settled on the soft skin of her cheek. I reached up to wipe it.

And I wanted to hold her.

And I wanted to kiss her.

So when the vicar said that I may kiss the bride, that's exactly what I did.
