Anne Wheeler x Phillip Carlyle

Chapter 7

Anne POV.
It's here; our wedding day! I stand in my bedroom as Lettie ties my hair up, singing the tune to "The Greatest Show". I know I am supposed to be nervous, but surprinsgly, I'm not. Well, if you think about it, there is no reason too. I am only excited and happy to be away with Phillip, and only Phillip.
"Are you ready, Anne?" Lettie asks me, twisting me around in the seat. She smiles at me encouragingly as I step into my white shoes.
"Yes." I say, as W.D steps into the room. As both our parents have died, I decided W.D, my big brother, would walk me down the aisle.
"My little sister, getting married already!" He exclaims, pulling me into a hug. I smile into his shoulder, there is no brother as amazing as him.
"Come on, W.D," I say, "The wedding begins now!" The butterflies start as I take hold of my brother's arm and we walk out of my bedroom in the lovely hotel that Phillip and I decided would hold our wedding. The people that own it are just so nice!
We walk down the aisle, and I see Phillip standing in a black suit, looking as handsome as ever, his blue eyes sparkling. W.D hands me over to Phillip, and for a moment, I look down at my family watching us. There is everybody from the circus, which brings the number to 14, my brother plus Barnum and his family, Charity and the girls, which brings the number to 19. There is also a man called William, Phillip's friend which is a very nice gentleman, and three of the staff from the hotel which are all great people; now there are 23 people. Then, there are two nurses that Phillip and I are very close with, that we met at the hospital, and there is even Phillip's mother, standing awkwardly in the corner, bringing the number of spectators to 26. Not a lot of people, but there are very few people which we would like be here.
One of the nurses says the wedding lines, and then, as she says "You may kiss the bride," to Phillip, I catch Phillip's twinkling blue eye, and he mouths at me, "Hello, Mrs Carlyle" right before we kiss, making me laugh.
Everybody claps and whoops and Phillip's mother claps politely too. Although she still only nods at me, she is learning to accept...even though her husband won't. Our circus family starts laughing and the they start singing "Rewrite the stars" from Phillip and I's duet. I laugh, and as I gaze at the people I love, tucked safely away in the person I love most, I feel the happiness inside me soar higher than ever.
