My Soldier. My Hero. (Completed)

Epilogue

Okay, this chapter is going to go quick, so I apologize. I do not plan on writing a sequel book. I hope you enjoyed this story!

Fun fact: this song was also my first dance with my husband. He picked it out, saying the first part about me cursing in traffic was spot on. ;)

Seven months later...

I'm standing in the dressing area and looking at the beautiful white gown.

Sophia and my dad are looking at me crying. I feel like my stomach is doing flips...I'm so fucking nervous. I have no idea why...I'm getting ready to marry the man of my dreams.

"Mia, you are so beautiful. Don't worry I won't let you trip down the isle." Bob says.

I chuckle and hug him.

I take a deep breath, thinking about the last secret I have. I place my hand over my stomach - I haven't shared this secret with anyone. I took a pregnancy test yesterday and it was positive. I thought about surprising Aiden with it today.

"Are you ready sweetheart?" Bob looks at me.

I wrap my arm in his and smile.

The music starts and Bob proceeds with me down the isle. I look into Aiden's bright blue eyes - I see tears. Is he starting to get teary-eyed?

We get to the end of the isle and my Dad kisses me on the cheek. I step up and take Aiden's hands. "Baby, you look amazing." He says, his eyes roaming my face and body.

I can feel my heart thumping against my chest. "You do too." My eyes start to wonder over his perfectly chiseled body. He smirks at me.

I'm so captivated with Aiden that I'm not even paying attention to the preacher.

"Mia?" The preacher looks concerned.

I quickly turn my head to him, "yeah?" I hear Aiden, my family and friends chuckle.

He clears his throat, "do you Mia, take Aiden as your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?"

I smile ear to ear, "I do."

"Aiden, you may now kiss your bride."

Aiden steps close to me and kisses me softly. His hands move to cupping my face, pulling me into him. All of our friends and family start clapping.

Reception...

Everyone is dancing, laughing and having a great time. Aiden pulls me to the dance floor for our first dance.

The way you curse when we're in traffic
A million flavors of your chap stick
The way that you keep my heart captive
The Journey concert in A. C
Remember, we sang "Faithfully"
I've still got that old hotel room key

I wrap my arms around his neck. He pulls my waist closer to him. I gaze into his bright blue eyes that look at me with so much love and admiration.

This is the way I feel
I can't wait for you to be my wife
To live this life together
And I won't let you go
I need you to know
That you are my heart forever
And on and on and on

I lean up to his ear, "I have something I need to tell you." He gives me a worried look. "I'm pregnant."

He stares into my soul - shocked. Before I could say anything else, he runs his hands through my hair and pulls my mouth to his - devouring it. "You have no idea how happy I am right." He says.
