Vivian-

Three months later I stood up at the altar where we would be exchanging our vows the next day, holding Denis's hands in mine and reciting fake vows.

We had written our own and didn't want to spoil them for the next day.

I was so excited to marry Denis. He was truly the love of my life and having a day just for us to profess our love was unbelievably exciting.

"Okay and then you will kiss." The officiant said to us, causing Denis to wiggle his eyebrows. "Then you will exit together and then it will be time for your reception. Everybody good?" He asked.

"We nodded."

"Alright, have fun at your rehearsal dinner." He smiled.

Denis took my hand excitedly, pecking my lips and leading me to the car.

"You ready little owl?"

I nodded.

"Another thing off of our checklist. I just want to it be tomorrow." I pressed a kiss to his lips.

"So do I little owl." He chuckled. "But let's have fun tonight alright." He smiled as we drove.

"I'm excited to see your family again." I smiled.

I hadn't seen Denis's sisters, nephew, or parents in years, and I was thrilled about getting to see them since us all being in the same country was a rare occurrence.

"I'm excited to see Octavius and Tori." He chuckled.

Our dates to the dance at senior year who had both used us to make the other jealous were now married, so it only seemed fitting that they would be invited. They were a part of our story.

My dad was coming, and so was Maddie's family, along with all of our friends and extended families. It was going to be a long night of talking to people, but I was very excited.

"Did I tell you that you look extremely sexy today." He bit his lip, placing his hand on my upper thigh as he drove.

I grabbed his hand in mine and moved it off of my leg.

"Tomorrow night." I promised, kissing his hand.

"But I want you now." He groaned.

"Too bad. We have to see our families." I laughed.

"They can wait." He smirked.

"Denis you're ridiculous." I laughed.

"But I'm hot." He laughed.

"Oh shut up loser." I laughed as he parked the car at the restaurant that we had reserved.

He took my hand as we walked in and were immediately greeted by all of the important people in our lives.

We greeted everybody with hugs before we took our seats at a table with the band and their girlfriends because they were all in the wedding.

As we all ate I felt everybody's eyes in the room focused on us, making me tense.

Denis had his arm around my waist and was rubbing small circles into my hip, knowing that I didn't do well with this much attention.

"Your doing great Viv." He chuckled.

"Thanks." I kissed his cheek softly as his family walked in.

Denis and I got up to go and greet them, and I was immediately tackled into hugs by his sisters.
