It was Matthew and Gilbert's wedding. The day was lovely, the sun shining, birds chirping, and the breeze was perfect. I was so nervous, it wasn't even my wedding. I don't want to see Alfred in a suit, it will make me think of our wedding. I don't want to think of marriage, it's too stressful. Alfred in a beautiful white suit, walking down the isle, holding flowers, smiling his beautiful smile, saying our vows and how much I love him, never mind the wedding, the proposal is difficult enough.
"Are you ready?" I hear Alfred ask. I snap out of my day dream and see him beside me. I nod nervously, "don't be so nervous, old man, it's not like it's our wedding." He laughs lightly.
He said OUR wedding. Does he want us to get married? Maybe he is giving me hints, "Alfred?" I ask without thought. He looks at me, "do you want to get married?" I blush lightly regretting my question.
"One day, maybe. It would be nice." I see him smile and look forward, I just nod, "okay let's go."
"Right." I start walking arm and arm with him down the isle to see Gilbert waiting at the other end.
Once we were standing at the other end with the groom we could see Matthew walking down the isle with flowers in hand and a beautiful white suit on. He looked at Gilbert and I could see him holding back his tears, smiling widely. I see Gilbert doing the same, making me ikr slightly. I was so happy to be able to witness this moment.
As they as there vows I looked at Alfred seeing him watch intensely with a grin, I smile then he looks at me, making me look back at the couple quickly, "and now the rings." I snap out of it and give Matthew his ring, I watch Alfred sfo the same for Gilbert, "Matthew Williams do you take Gilbert Beilschmidt as your husband?"
"I do." The Canadian says with a smile.
"And Gilbert Beilschmidt do you that Matthew Williams as your husband?"
"I do." Gilbert smiles.
"I now pronounce you Matthew and Gilbert Beilschmidt-Williams. You may now kiss." They do so and everyone applauds. I feel a tear go down my face as I clap and smile widely.
