The white material covered her body, showing her most beautiful curves, shining whenever the rays of the sun hit it's pearls. The net of white cloth was stitched like a draping curtain over her shoulders and her strapless gown, tickling her whenever she moved.

The silk material tightened till her waist and flowed like a never ending white river behind her, catching the heart of her love into it. Her hair, full of the curls which looked liked the yarn with which Jaden was eager to play with.
Her eyes, full of happiness and glea, wondering how her groom would look in his black tux, standing their to take her wherever he pleased.
Her hair neatly styled into a bun, some strands falling onto her, ever so gleaming face.

It was perfect. Everything she had wished for was finally coming true. The man she loved, she was going to marry him today.

She looked herself into the mirror. Nothing had changed.
She was the same old girl who was broken by many but kept going due to one and only one person.

She had to resist his anger but she truly loved him despite his nature.
She still had that moment captured in her brain when Jaden had revealed her his true problem.
That very day near the train. He spilled every bit of himself to her and that just attracted her to him even more. He didn't refute to tell her but he hesitated when she asked him to.

They both were ready to do anything for eachother. The past five years, they both got to know eachother in and out, not hiding one thing from eachother. That's what brought them so close today.

She could remember the time when he had proposed to her infront of everyone at her birthday party he had organised for her. That was merely two months ago.

He was dressed in a brown tux with the multi-colored tie which I had gotten for him for our fourth dating anniversary.
As a gift he had gotten me an elegant coco brown and black dress with pearls studding it's waist so we would look like a pair that day. He called me out.
He shut off the lights and showered only one light in my direction. From amidst the swarming people, he came out. His face was red, his smile was so wide that it shooed away the anger he once used to possess.
He held my hand and clasped his other hand on my waist and brought me closer to him. We were inches away from eachother. His breath tingling my lips.
He put his leg back and told me to follow his steps and that's what I did.
I was more in shock to process that he was teaching me how to dance. He turned me and he stretched my hand out wide and circled me into his embrace. He looked me into the eye the whole time, not once leaving my eye contact. He gently shifted his hands from my waist to my leg and brought it up towards his hands. It was like a mix of the waltz and salsa but whatever it was, I felt blissful. The way he moved each step and brought me onto his side was more than a majestic feeling.
Then he pushed me down and held my head and made a stance where my head was in the air and his head was right above mine. Everyone around clapped when we had finished. He slowly brought me up and kept his hand sturdy on my head. He looked at me in the eye, intensely. My breathing became rapid, I wasn't able to think about everyone around me watching, all I wanted to do was get lost in his eyes which beheld his never ending ocean.
He let go of my hands ever so softly and brought a small light blue velvet box out of his side pocket. From the other pocket he took out the most beautiful white magnolia I had ever seen.
I never knew he knew I loved magnolias, especially the white ones. They brought peace to my mind whenever I saw them.
He held the magnolia in his mouth by its stem, and opened the box which contained the most beautiful emerald ring I had ever seen. He knelt down down onto his knees.
I was speechless. My eyes were a giveaway of my excitement because Jaden snickered at my response.
He then looked up and stared at me. His eyes held a hope that I wouldn't deny him.
How could I. I was waiting for this moment for so long. He really was the only guy who loved me so much.
I had tears in my eyes now. Jaden knew he had touched my heart because his eyes now held joy. I nodded and whispered a yes.
I suddenly realised there were our fellow friends watching us too when they instantly applauded for us. I giggled and Jaden took me into his arms.
He brought his mouth towards my ear, which made me shiver under his breath, and said ever so softly,' I love you my Andromeda.'
With that he hugged me so much that I was out of words to tell him that I loved him too.
I couldn't ask for more than this.
