Come Closer Baby.

Chapter 24

I turned to see where the voice was coming from.

"BEC WAIT!" The figure was coming closer towards us. My veil was covering my face. The figure became a woman. The woman became my mum.

"Mum?! What are you doing here?!" I was shocked. How did my mum find out about the wedding?

"Rebecca, I just want you to know how sorry I am. Sorry for not paying attention to you. You are the best thing that's ever happened to me. When your father visited me in jail and told me about this... I was overjoyed. I couldn't believe you were getting married!" A tear came to her eye.

"Rebecca, I know what I did was wrong. But I want to be part of your life again. I've missed you Bec. I realize that being with your father was the 2nd worst decision I've ever made. I left him. But I want you to know that the worst mistake I ever made, was letting you leave me. I need you Bec...I love you!" She looked at me.

"I love you too," I gave her a hug. I missed my mum. Underneath all that hatred I really did miss her. I clutched her hard. She pulled out of my grip.

"You look beautiful, congratulations to you both. Proceed," She smiled. She took an empty seat at the front row. This day couldn't have been any better.

"Okay, join hands again," the priest said.

"Rebecca Katy Vanessa Whites. Do you take Emmanuel to be your lawfully wedded husband?"

"I do,"

"Emmanuel Javier Rodriguez. Do you take Rebecca to be your lawfully wedded wife?"

"I do,"

"With the power vested in me, and the world, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss your beautiful bride." Eman lifted my veil and smiled. He leant in and gave me a short, yet passionate kiss. I pulled apart and gave him a small peck. We did it! We're married!

"I present to you, Mr and Mrs Rodriguez!" The audience stood up and cheered. This was the best day of my life.

**Eman's POV**
I'm married! I married Bec, the love of my life. We did all the paperwork and we rushed to our parents.

"Mum, these are Emmanuel's parents," Bec introduced my family to hers. They got along really well.

"Eman, Bec, photo time!" Samantha called. My mouth hurt from smiling so much. We took photos with our families and friends. Then we went off for the bridal party photos.  We stopped near a beach. First the bridesmaids and the boys got photos. They looked pretty good. The boys looked sharp in their suits, the girls looked amazing with their dresses.

Bec and I took photos by the water. I picked her up so her dress wouldn't get wet. We walked along the sand and it was just perfect.

"What time is it?" 5.30pm read the clock in the wedding car.

"Let's go to the restaurant. Im hungry!" Bec rubbed her belly. We made our way to the restaurant. We had the biggest bridal party in the world. Jodie would walk in with Lenny, Leilani with Solo, Chantal with John and we got Jess to walk in with Paulie. As a joke we got Lukas, Samson and John to walk in together. Then me and Bec would walk in.

When we got there, everyone was seated. The room looked amazing. White draped chairs with purple ribbons, purple and white lillies as the centrepiece, the cake right near the bridal table. It was absolutely breathtaking... and it was all for us.

"Let's go!" Samantha called.

**Bec's POV**

"Hey there! I'm Jillaire, this is Tiana and this is Kay! We'll be your MC's for tonight! There would be just two of us, but we're all good friends with Bec and Eman, they couldn't say no to one of us! Now let's kick off the evening by bringing in our bridal party!" The crowd cheered for us.

"First up, we've got Jodie and Lenny!" They walked out and gave a little bow and curtsey. They took their seats at the long table.

"Leilani and Solo!" They were so cute together. I hope they'd get married soon!

"Chantal and Samson!" Samson picked Chantal up and spun her around.

"Last but

"Lukas, Samson and John!" They all walked in with linked arms. They had big smiles on their faces. The audience laughed.

"And please, give a warm welcome to our bride and groom. BEC AND EMAN!" The crowd got up from their chairs and clapped and cheered. I gave Eman a peck and we took our seats at the middle of the table.

"Let's start off with a little slideshow of Bec and Eman," A slideshow came up on the projector. It read Emmanuel and Rebecca 23.08.11. A picture came up of me, when I was young. I had curly brown hair. I have no idea what happened to my curls! I blushed, how did they get these photos?!

Then a picture of Eman came up and I couldn't help but laugh at him. He was an adorable baby!

A lot of pictures of us on dates and pictures with the crew came up. Whoever put this together made it look so romantic. When the slideshow ended everyone clapped.

"LETS EAT!"' Tiana yelled into the microphone. Kay, Jillaire and Tiana took their seats at one of the front tables. Our first course was set infront of us. It was smoked salmon with tomato salsa. I fed mine to Eman and he fed his to me. I LOVE smoked salmon. I had to make sure it was on the menu.

As time progressed, food kept coming. Speeches were made and pictures were shown. We cut the cake and had our first dance. Everything was happening so fast. My mum came back which made me more happy. I was married to the best person in the world. My life couldn't be more perfect.
