The wedding

~ March 14th, 2014 ~

1 day more........

1 day more and I would marry the love of my life. I was pretty nervous and could hardly sleep last night, like Marshall. We were talking almost the whole time about everything that came to our minds and when we finally fell asleep it was 4 in the morning. Marshall had managed the 'Tess-trouble' by releasing a statement that he never had an affair with her and he would ask the media to respect our privacy. Thankfully they did......
And now we had one more day until we would get married......

I can't wait........

Our family and friends had all arrived yesterday and we had our bodyguards bring them to the hotel where the wedding would take place. Marshall and I had decided that we wanted a small wedding, only the families and closest friends.
My mother, sister, my cousin Anja, Ashley, the girls, Ronnie, Nicole and also Debbie had arrived this morning to spend the last night as an unmarried woman with me at our home, while Marshall would stay with the men at the hotel.

"Don't make me wait to long." He pleaded while he had wrapped his arms tightly around my waist. He was about to leave to the hotel and we were standing in our foyer to say 'bye'.
"I won't. I promise!" I said softly and he leaned forward and kissed me tenderly.
"I love you and I can't wait to see you tomorrow...." he kissed me again, "walkin' down the aisle...." another kiss, "and finally marrying you!" One last kiss and while I smiled widely Royce basically ripped us apart.
"Enough lovey dovey's! You'll see each other tomorrow, time to leave man." I rolled my eyes at my best friend and Marshall huffed out frustrated, but grabbed his bag and after he stole another quick kiss he left the house.

"What now?" Moni asked me and I shrugged my shoulders. To be honest it was weird and strange without my fiancée at home and knowing that I'd get married but while now also Anja and Nicole showed up in the foyer to ask what we would do now, the doorbell rang.
"Who's that?" Nicole asked and again I shrugged and my sister went to open the door.
"Aaaahhhhh!!!" She squealed loudly and excited and in seconds the girls rushed out of the living room and also started squealing and clapped their hands.

My dress has arrived.....

The rest of the day we were sitting around and everyone made sure I would relax. Not only they didn't want me to be tired tomorrow, my mother was still concerned about my health and wanted to make sure that I had all my strength for my wedding day.
At 10 pm I was sent to bed.

Yup....I felt like a 10 year old again.....

The styling team would be here at 9 am and I had to get up at 7.30 am to shower and eat breakfast and so I reluctantly obeyed my mothers order and went in my bedroom. At midnight my cellphone started ringing and honestly woke me up, but I smiled when I saw the caller ID Mein Herz.
"Did I woke you up?" Marshall whispered into the phone when I'd picked up and I answered with "yes". "Damn, sorry gorgeous but I wanted to hear your voice so bad." I smiled to myself from his words.
"You're the sweetest ever, but why are you whispering the whole time?"
"I stole my phone from Royce and now I'm hidin' in the backyard. These fuckers didn't wanna let me call ya, so I've to be quiet that they won't find me." I laughed out shortly and imagined my fiancée sitting behind a bush, phone pressed to his ear, eyes wandering restlessly through the backyard.
"So you're on a secret mission, hm?!" I joked and I heard him laughing silently.
"Kinda like that, but listen I called to tell you somethin'...." he started and while I heard him taking a deep breath, I waited anxiously for him to continue. "Gorgeous, we came a fuckin long and rocky way to where we're now and I wanted to thank you for stickin' with my crazy and troubled ass. I know I've hurt you a hell lot with everythin' I've done and I'm fuckin' sorry for that, but I promise you I'll do my best to be the husband you deserve. I love you so fuckin' much only thinkin' about you almost makes my heart explode. Tina you're the best that ever stepped into my life and I'll be forever thankful to have you." I felt my eyes getting watery and before I could reply anything Marshall huffed out. "Fuck, they're looking for me. Tina, I gotta go. I love you and I can't wait to see you later." And with that the line went dead. For a while I was laying awake and thought about everything we'd experienced together. From the barbecue, our first date, the touring, the cheating and lastly my sickness. Through everything I've loved him and I knew I would never stop loving him. No matter what he had done, let it be the cheating or the lies, his good side has always outweighed the bad.
