Alex told me she's pregnant with twins... I find that great for them but she tells me not to tell Oli. I agree. I put on the wedding dress and some of my friends help with my makeup. They do my hair and the door opens
"Ready?" Dean asks and I nod, I stand up and my heart starts racing, I walk over to him and the bridesmaids and the groomsmen walk down the isle
"I'm scared" I say before we start walking
"You'll be okay" he says and I nod, we link arms and start walking down the isle. My heart beats faster and faster with every step. I get up to the front and Dean kisses my cheek, I smile and he walks over to where the rest of the guys are. I stand across from Oli and he holds out his hands and I hold them. I keep thinking about what Alex told me.
"Are you scared?" Oli asks and I nod
"Me too" he says and we both smile.
"We gather here to unite these two people in marriage. Their decision
to marry has not been entered into lightly and today they publicly
declare their private devotion to each other. The essence of this
commitment is the acceptance of each other in entirety, as lover,
companion, and friend. A good and balanced relationship is one in
which neither person is overpowered nor absorbed by the other, one
in which neither person is possessive of the other, one in which
both give their love freely and without jealousy.
Marriage, ideally, is a sharing of responsibilities, hopes, and dreams.
It takes a special effort to grow together, survive hard times, and be
loving and unselfish. Do you both pledge to share your lives openly with one another, and
to speak the truth in love? Do you promise to honor and tenderly
care for one another, cherish and encourage each other, stand
together, through sorrows and joys, hardships and triumphs for all
the days of your lives?" The priest says
"I do" Oli says
"I do" I say and we smile
"May these rings be blessed as a symbol of your union. As often as
either of you look upon these rings, may you not only be reminded of
this moment, but also of the vows you have made and the strength of
your commitment to each other. Oliver repeat after me, I Oliver, promise to love and support you Hazel and live each day
with kindness, understanding, truth, humor, and passion. With this
ring I thee wed." He says
"I Oliver, promise to love and support you Hazel and live each day
with kindness, understanding, truth, humor, and passion. With this
ring I thee wed" he says and puts the ring on my finger
"Now Hazel, repeat after me, I Hazel, promise to love and support you Oliver and live each day with kindness, understanding, truth, humor, and passion. With this
ring I thee wed." I say and put the ring on his finger
"Go now in peace and live in love, sharing the most precious gifts you have-
the gifts of your lives united. And may your days be long on this earth.
I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride." The priest says and Oli kisses me. I smile and we hug, I look over Oli's shoulder and see Dean and Sam smiling. We all go outside for some food and desert. The camera man comes and me and Oli take some wedding pictures. We walk over to our seats and I see the back of them say 'Mrs.' And 'Mr.' I smile and we sit in the seats and people come and talk to us, we all eat. Someone taps on my shoulder and I see Charlie. I grew up with her. I gasp and stand up, we hug
"I can't believe your getting married, you look so beautiful" she says and I smile
"I know, and says you! You look amazing!" I say and she smiles
"So is this the lucky dude?" She says looking at Oli, he stands up and I nod
"Are your brothers here? I wanted to say hi" she says and I nod
"There right over there" I say pointing and she nods and walks over there.
: that night :
I yawn and lay down, Oli lays down and I face him, we smile and he wraps his arms around me and I put my head against his chest.
"Goodnight Mrs. Sykes" he says and I smile
"Goodnight Mr. Sykes" I say back and we fall asleep
