Vinnie was not sure whether she should be excited or worried.It was her wedding day!

Last night Vinnie had called Anna and told her about the sudden wedding, asking to accompany her to the shopping mall,for help in choosing a dress for the big day,today.At first she was resistant but Vinnie had emotionally blackmailed her and she reluctantly agreed.

Anna,Mrs. Connor,Jane,Emily and Mrs. Blake had all bought a dress each and were waiting for Vinnie to choose her bridal dress.
Vinnie had tried thirteen dresses till now but was still confused,she could not make up her mind on which one to buy,all the dresses were amazing and there were far too many options,making it all the more difficult for her.
"I will go with this one." Vinnie said,coming out of the trying room wearing a sleeveless,full length net and chiffon gown with embroidery all over it.
.................
Vinnie walked down the aisle of St. Joseph Church with her father.Anna and Emily were behind them,with flowers in their hands,they were her bridesmaids.
Mr. Connor left her with Michael and went to sit with his wife in the front row.
Michael was wearing a white coat with black collars, white trousers,white button down shirt and a black bow.
The priest started reading their vows but Vinnie wasn't really listening.She was daydreaming about Switzerland when suddenly Michael nudged her, making her come back to reality.
"Vanessa Connor,do you accept Michael Blake as your lawfully wedded husband?"The priest repeated himself.
" I do."Vinnie said after a brief pause.
The priest continued,"I now declare you man and wife.You may now kiss the bride."
Michael turned towards Vinnie,coming closer.He leaned forward and kissed her on the lips. She felt as if butterflies were fluttering all over her body.
This was her first kiss.
Everybody clapped and cheered.

..............
"

You are beautiful. " Michael said, looking Vinnie in the eyes.His gaze fell down to her lips and back to her eyes,making her cheeks flush with color.
Vinnie never considered herself beautiful.
At 5'4", with pale skin,hazel brown eyes and chocolate brown hair,she always thought of herself as an average looking girl.

Michael and Vinnie were at the Red Rose Hotel,for their wedding reception, arranged by Mr. Connor as a wedding gift for his daughter.

Vinnie was resting her left hand on his shoulder,
Michael had his right hand on Vinnie's waist and with his other hand,was holding her right hand.
They were dancing and this time Vinnie was not in her accounting class,dreaming.

Earlier,they had cut a cake.It was a four tiered cake with one tier being black and the other white and so on,it was decorated with edible flowers.
.................
Vinnie came out of the washroom wearing Michael's shirt which he wore for the wedding.
He looked at her with amusement on his face.
"Don't look at me like that," Vinnie snapped,"you took the towel with you after your turn and I forgot to take my night dress with me.This was the only thing in the bathroom that I could wear."She gestured with her hands towards her body.
The shirt was too big for Vinnie,it came till her thighs and the sleeves were dangling.Michael took one of her hands in his and rolled the sleeve up,then did the same with the other.
"There you go." He said smiling.

Michael was about to settle in an arm chair,which had a pillow placed on top of it,when Vinnie stopped him,"What are you doing?"She asked.
"Going to sleep." Michael replied,with a duh expression on his face.
"On that?" Vinnie asked,"You won't even fit in it."
When Michael didn't say anything but kept on staring her,Vinnie said,"C'mon,we are grown ups,we know how to behave in bed."
She turned,walked over to the bed opposite the arm chair and climbed in.She patted the space beside her,with her hand,indicating Michael to come and sleep on the bed.
....................
Vinnie woke up in Michael's arms,her hands were rested on his bare chest.One of his arms was under her head and the other was placed around her waist.
"Good morning,Mrs. Michael."He said ,smiling and winking.
Vinnie blushed,remembering last night.
Neither of them had behaved.
