"I'm not gonna lie to you, Mom. I'm nervous." I say as I run my fingers through my hair; a habit I picked up from Harry.

"Well, you should be. It is your wedding day, after all!" She replies with a big smile plastered on her face. She's been waiting for this day longer than I have.

"I just wish dad was here

"I just wish dad was here." I tell her as I start to steam my dress. I instantly regret bringing him up when I see the melancholy look etched on my mother's face. "Mom, I'm sorry for bringing him up. I know it still hurts."
When I wrap my arms around her, she hugs my arms and says, "it's okay honey, time heals all wounds and I miss your father but he's here with us today," she points to my heart. "he's gonna be right there beside you when you walk down the aisle." She holds back tears.

I try to hold back the tears but they keep pouring out of my eyes like a fountain.
After a few minutes my mother lifts my head up and says "okay, no more tears. It's time you start getting ready!" She sniffles and wipes her face.

As I finish putting makeup on, Gemma walks in holding Gracie. She's dressed her in a rose gold flower girl dress with white Mary Janes.
"Look at my beautiful baby girl!" I exclaim.

As I finish up, I look at Gemma and Anne who are both fixing up their hair. "Has anyone heard from Harry today? Is he okay?"

Harry's POV

"Oh bloody hell, am I nervous." I run my fingers through my hair as I pace back and forth.

"No reason to be nervous mate." My best man, Grimmy says.
I know he's right, I just can't believe I'm marrying the woman of my dreams in a few short moments.

*bzz buzz*
My phone vibrates on the end table.
I stroll across the dressing room and smile when I see who's texting. "It's Sel." I say to Grim.
