The first dance.

Isn't it what every couple dreams of ? White gown going down the floor, the boy holding her hands, she keeps her head on his chest as the perfect song runs behind? Yeah that is exactly how it was for them too.

Sam went up and took Haley by his hand.

As the music started he put his hands on her back.

Slowly they started dancing

"Everyone is staring at us", Haley whispered.
"Yeah. That is kind of what they do to you at your wedding" , Sam chuckles

Haley gives him a big smile

"You look so beautiful today. I can't keep my eyes off"
"Thank you", she says as they keep up with the rhythm.

They chose the perfect song. More like Sam did. Haley didn't know about it. But nonetheless, she loved every word.

"So we lie here in the dark
All the wrong things on fire
In sickness and in health
To be with you, just to be with you

In your wedding dress
To have and to hold
'Cause even at my best
I wanna let go

And you hold me in your arms
And all that I can see
Is my future in your hands
And all that I can feel
Is how long ever after is
It's all that I can do
To be with you, just to be with you

In your wedding dress
To have and to hold
'Cause even at my best
I don't wanna let go

Thought I'd lost you
Thought I'd lost you
I gave you away
Thought I'd lost you
I'm jealous of the moon
For how it moves the waves

'Cause in your wedding dress
To have and to hold
'Cause even at my best
I don't wanna let go"

"The song is perfect.", she gushed.
"I know", he smiles back.

"Hey, Hales?", he whispers into her ears.

"Yeah?", she looks up.

"Stick with me? Stay with me?", he asks.

"Always and Forever",
she says as she presses her lips on his.

Him and her. And everything else. Just perfect.

At that very moment. And also for the rest of their lives.
