Back to December Book 2

Chapter 6: The Big Day

"Fel?" Elizabeth called pushing through the bedroom door open. She opened her mouth to speak, but stopped and watched me.

I was sitting crossed legged on the bed, wearing one of Alfie's shirt doing my own makeup.

"I thought Taylor was going to do your makeup?" she asked while sitting beside me.

I looked up, putting down the brush, "Sorry, I know but I wanted to." I paused as Shalyn & Taylor walked into the room.

"To do it how Alfie likes it." Taylor joked, making me blush. The girls laughed while shaking their heads.

"Come on Fel, you should get dressed."

"Why can't I just wear this shirt? It's really comfy.."

"After the trouble we had finding this dress," Shalyn said, while holding up the wedding dress, then Taylor cuts her off,

"Alfie would love you in anything, but maybe something a little more than a shirt. You're getting married in a church."

I nodded my head & put on my dress. And Elizabeth tied the bow at the back and secured it tightly.

Mom started to walk in the room with a smile on her face.

"Aww you look beautiful honey, here's your bouquet & veil." said mom.

"Must I really wear this veil, mom?" I asked.

"Just put it on! I'll help you."

I nodded but I didn't removed my eyes from the flesh flowers. "Don't want to rush you or anything, but dad will be here in an hour to take us to the wedding," she continued.

"The bride is allowed to be late, everyone knows that!" Elizabeth added.

"Let's go have breakfast girls, I prepared everything already."

"Smells amazing," Shalyn commented walking towards the table.

"Anyone wants coffee?" I asked.

"Fel, among 4 of us, you're the only one who drinks coffee here."

There was a loud knock on the door and everyone froze. I slowly made my way to the door but Elizabeth rushed infront of me.

"Alfie," she said opening the door. "You can't be here!" she continued.

"Damn, just give this to Fel," Alfie replied giving Eli my coffee.

"Thanks Alfie, now go away!" she joked.

"Tell her I love her!" Alfie yelled out as Eli closed the door on him.

"Here's your coffee, Felisha. Don't know how he knew you wanted coffee.

I smiled and slowly took a sip. I started blushing when I saw the name on the cup,

"Bride."

After having breakfast we were ready to go.

/Alfie's POV/

As she steps through the doors, I was speechless. She's so beautiful. Her grip on her dad's arm tightens as they walked closer.

She looked up and smiled, our eyes locking together. "Perfect," I mouth. She smiled slyly and looked down at the ground blushing.

I bit my bottom lip, but it didn't stop my smile from growing. I loved knowing that I still have the same effect on her as I did 8 years ago.

We started to say our vows.

"I, Alfie take you Felisha, to be my lawfully wedded wife, to have & to hold, from this day forward for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer," said Alfie.

"I, Felisha take you Alfie, to be my lawfully wedded husband, to have & to hold, from this day forward for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer," I repeated.

"Through health & sickness," I said.

"Through sorrow & success," Alfie said.

"For all the days of my life," I said.

"And till death do us apart," Both of us said together.

"Now, I ask the ring barrier to come forward," said the Pastor.

We then put on our wedding rings onto each other.

"And for now, you may kiss the bride." said the Pastor.

Alfie gently rubbed his hands up and down my forearms. I returned his smile, as looking at each other for a moment.

"Just kiss her already!" Keagen yelled, making everybody laugh.

I blushed and giggle as Alfie lent in and kissed me gently. I deepened the kiss, before pulling away. Everybody started clapping and whistling for us. I can't believe it, I'm married!

Alfie & I walked out of church while the flower girls threw petals of flowers to us, while the little boys were blowing bubbles. It was perfect. Everybody started walking out of the church while we were going in the car.

We then waved goodbye to our family & friends as the driver drove away from the church. Once the car turned the corner and the church was out of sight, I removed my veil as it was annoying me.

"Why do you keep looking at me like that?" I asked.

"What?" He questioned in reply.

"You were staring at me, weirdo." I said.

Alfie chuckled and shook his head. He grabbed my waist, and kissed me.

I rested my hands on his chest, smiling at him.

"You're beautiful, absoulutely gorgeous. Something about that made me smile," He gently touched my lips.

I blushed and pushed lightly against his chest, "I love your smile more, and your deep brown eyes, but not as much as I love your heart," I placed my hand over his fast beating heart. I looked up and locked eyes, either of us wanted to move away.

"We're here! Have fun." said the driver.

We walked out of the car happily.

Alfie had his hand on my lower back, as I walked inside the venue. I could hear the faint voices of our family and friends downstairs. I walked to the railing by the stairs, Alfie close behind.

He wrapped his arms around my waist, kissing my cheek.

"Let's go," I said while smiling.

"The couple is here!" screamed my crazy bridesmaids.

Elizabeth & Taylor goes up the stage where the speeches will be done at.

Elizabeth was the first one to start the speech by saying,"First off, I would like to give a huge congratulations to our best friend, Felisha and her boyfriend, oops I meant her husband," she said while raising his glass.

"So we were asked to tell how, Alfie & Felisha met. This is how it went they met in 2009, and became close friends. Two of us plus our another dear friend, Shalyn knew both of them are going to fall with each other. Fel told us about their love after months of them dating, undercover love, ya know!"

The crowd started laughing, and Taylor added,"And boom, bam 6 years later here they are. Happily married to each other, so much of I don't like him huh, Felisha?" she said while giggling.

The crowd started clapping as Alfie & I went up to them and hug them as they walked off the stage.

"Hi, so I'm Felisha Marshall now?"

The crowd started laughing, "We just wanted to thank eveyone here, we are blessed to have our families & friends here together with us, to celebrate a very special day to, Alfie & I. I hope all of you are having a blast," I handed the microphone to Alfie and he added,

"Everyone enjoy your night & the food, I heard it's delicious so thank you so much everyone!"
