Charlton"Hey man! You okay?" Chris my best man says as he slaps me on my back.
"I feel like I'm going to break down from nerves" I grumble
"It'll run perfectly"
This is why he's my best man, he has so much positivity. He's a single guy that was working alongside me a few years back on a mission. He's an agent just like me and still is one, me though? Well, I've dropped out due to my love life and well... Isabella and I want to have a family someday.
My eyes scan the room warily. I may not be an agent anymore but that doesn't mean I will lose my habits.
My gaze lands upon my parents.
This is the first time I've seen them in months. My mission with Isabella ended up being extremely long but hey! I ain't complaining! I've finally found the one for me.Mum drags dad over to me.
Dad and I may seem like we are on bad terms. At this moment we are both glaring at each other, not saying a word but really this is normal...Staring contests. We have been doing it for as long as I can remember. I know it should be whoever blinks first, loses but me and my dad have so much fun just looking at each other's faces and pointing out funny features; that it takes so much to stay serious.
A couple of seconds tick by and we both begin smirking at the same time. Then our lips begin to quiver and shoulders begin to shake and then a sudden intake of breath.
"Ahaaaahaaha" we burst out laughing not caring about the heads turning towards us
"I!" I gasp "we didn't even last that long!"
"I know right!" My dad chokes back trying to catch his breath.
My dad is strongly built, he has dark brown hair and the same green eyes as me. Whilst mom has ash blonde hair and blue eyes, she is like an angel; always looking out for everyone, so kind, caring, thoughtful and a great cook! She looks beautiful in her lilac dress. Mom is wearing a lilac, lace sleeved dress that stops just above the knees. Her shoes are silver with white lace incorporated into them. And her hair is pinned up into an elegant messy bun.
Most people around the room are wearing lilac, Isabella's choice. Whatever she's happy with, I'm happy with.
I still can't believe she was able to book such a place. At the moment we are all inside a building where the wedding will take place but the After party venue is only a few minutes drive away.
I notice my phone vibrating in my pocket.
"Hello?" I say through the phone not looking at the contact.
"We are on the way. Can you start directing the guests to the venue site?" Says Isabella's dad, Jason through the phone.
"Sure, no problem, "
"We will be there in ten, "
"Cool. Bye. "
"Bye. "
"Who was that?" Mom asks.
"The bride is on the way. Can you help me move everyone outside?"
"Yes darling"
I look around again. I breathe steady breaths. This is the moment we have all been waiting for. This is when my fiance from a year ago, turns into my wife. It's been two years since I first went on the journey of a lifetime and met the love of my life.
By now there are only a few stragglers in the building still... shit I'm still here!
I begin to run to the site. Isabella may have booked this place, but she hasn't been here. She's been so busy preparing for the wedding that she doesn't even know how magical this place really is.
I get there just in time to see everyone seated in their chairs. Behind the arch in a larger open meadow with trees surrounding to cut off the outside world.
I make my way towards the arch, where we will be saying our vows. I begin to speak to the Pope.
"Everything looks amazing, right? Everything looks like it's going to plan?" I question
"Yes," he answers "well, get ready son. Cause a limousine just pulled up. "
My heart races and hands sweat as I hold them behind my back then my head shifts to the noise of car doors slamming.
Chris shifts his position, so he's behind me but facing the girls incoming.
Firstly the bridesmaids skip their way down the Isle joyfully, whilst a non-lyric joyful melody plays.
Honestly Stephenie and Lily are great. They're so humorous and have awesome personalities. I've only met them twice because they still live in England, so we don't get to see them much because we still live in Texas.
If, I had to set up Chris with anyone it'd be Stephenie. She seems to have a side to her that is completely unknown. If he's interested, I'd totally ditch him while they have a conversation.
Next up is the maid of honour. Mary; Isabella's mom is looking absolutely beautiful in her dress, Isabella resembles her so much but I guess she has her dad's eyes. She reaches the end of the Isle she looks up at me and smiles.
"You take care of her now. Keep her safe and help her out in life. I'm happy that you vowed to protect her a lot longer ago than this but just please never leave her side." she whispers and begins crying. I pull her into a tight hug.
She rubs my back and steps away onto Isabella's side.
The music starts playing the traditional 'here comes the bride' and my irises take in the view as Isabella's father; Jason opens the door. She puts one heeled foot out from the shadow of the building.
My breath is knocked out of me.
She's stunning. That word doesn't even do her justice. She's an angel, no no.... a goddess. Her veil and dress trail along the floor as she stands at the other end. She looks up at the arch above her that leads to me. The archway is made of trees that are bent over on the treetops, the branches mingle with fairy lights. It's truly more magical with her here. The flowers at her feet are what she notices next, the flowerbeds, perfect the forest feeling. She then looks straight at me and I can't breathe again, the look on her face tells me she can't either- at the sight of me.
