I can't believe it had been a year since my brother Brandon got engaged. Today was the day. Brandon and Laura were getting married. I was the maid of honor for the wedding. Alec and I had been together for almost a year. It was getting strong and I was finally happy. But not for long, I thought as I was pushed down from the bed by our very own bride.

"Zoey, we don't have time to day dream. Get your ass in the bathroom and wash up quickly." She snapped at me and then went to wake the other girls who were playing the roles of bridesmaids.

One thing led to another and pretty soon we all were dressed up nicely and were waiting in the chapel for the ceremony to start. Laura was sitting quietly in the corner mumbling something. I tried to calm her down but she only gave me the glare. Her parents came in to see their daughter trapped in a white beautifully embroidered gown looking very beautiful. Her mother was on the verge of crying but composed herself for the sake of her daughter.

I went out giving the family some privacy. The ceremony was just about to start. I saw Brandon with a nervous yet happy look on his face standing next to the groomsmen.

"You look beautiful, Zoe." Alec came out of nowhere and trapped me in his arms and said with a smile on his face. I smiled and pulled away to check him out. He looked handsome in a black suit.

"You look handsome as always Mr. Hunt." I said with a mischievous grin on my face.

"Is everything okay? Zoey, why are you out here? Where's Laura?" Brandon ruined our sweet moment when he asked hurriedly.

"Yes, everything is fine. I just came out here to see what's going on out here." I replied. "I can't believe the guy who used to chase me in the park to throw water balloons at me is getting married." I saw with reminiscing the moments. Brandon must have remembered it too because he also had a huge grin on his face.

It was time for the ceremony to begin. Brandon went back to his place that was next to the priest. Alec went to sit with his family while I left to get Laura. As the music began, we slowly made our entrance. I walked to the front with a bouquet of lilies in my hand and went to stand at my place. I saw Laura entering with her father withholding a beautiful smile to match with her beautiful dress.

Her father gave her off to Brandon and the priest started his speech which I am sure no one bothered to listen.

"I pronounce you man and wife for life. You may now kiss your bride." Priest finally said and Brandon swooped in to give Laura a kiss.

The wedding was beautiful. I was beginning to wish that it was my wedding. I saw the happy couple hand in hand getting wishes and receiving gifts from the guests. I gushed at the sight. Alec came to me and held my hand.

"What are you doing? You are not casting a spell on them are you?" Alec asked with a chuckle as he watched me look at the newly wedded couple with awe.

"Why would I do that? I am just so happy to see them together after such a long time." I said.

"You were staring at them without even blinking an eye. So I thought maybe you were bewitching them just you like you trapped me in your spell of love." He said with sly grin.

"That was so cheesy. How'd you come up with that?" I said with playful mocking tone.

"Come on, I want to show you something." He started walking towards the exit and when I argued he just said, "Others can wait, that can't."

He led me out and then to the back of the chapel. He untied his tie and blindfolded me.

"What are you doing?" I said resisting in between of his act.

"It is a surprise." He shushed me and carried me in bridal style and after walking for few more minutes we reached the destination. He stood me on the ground.

"Wait for me to tell you and then remove your blindfold." I nodded and stood there. I was feeling like as if I was in fairytale or something. Whatever it was, it just made me happy and jittery all of a sudden. I couldn't describe what I was feeling. I was feeling content, happy, blissful, and safe and being cared for. Many more feelings explored my heart in that few moments when Alec instructed me to remove the blindfold.

I quickly removed it; my mind filled with anticipation. I saw him kneeling before me. A gasp left me involuntarily. It was small garden full of beautiful flowers, mostly white lilies and red roses. He had a huge smile on his face.

"Zoey, I have loved you from the moment I saw you. You have been the best thing that ever happened to me and I don't intend to let you go. With a promise to love you and cherish you and protect you from everything I ask you, will you marry me, Zoey?" He asked with a hint of love and respect in his tone.

I stood there speechless with a shock on my face. I didn't know whether to jump on him or hug him and never let go. Before he stands up with disappointment I nodded.

"Yes!" I yelled happily engulfing him in my arms and sealing the moment with a kiss.

He returned the kiss with full passion. As we pulled away catching for fresh air, he took my hand in his and slipped a diamond ring in my ring finger making me his forever.
