I looked in the mirror one last time before going out. I readjusted my gloves and my shoes.
"Are you ready?" My father stood by the door way in a suit with a few tears in his eyes.
"Ya I think I am. How do you think I look?" I asked
"You look like a angel sweetheart and I think your mom wanted to see you before you go out and become a new woman." I smiled and saw my mom come in.
"Sweetie are you ready?"
"Mom, everyone keeps asking and I think...I'm ready but dad can you hold my hand while walking?" He looked honor and was ready for it.
"That is the greatest thing I could do for you." I hugged him with all my might and he did the same.
"I think I'm ready now." I grabbed my father's hand, then we heard the music playing and my mother running off to join the family. I walked into the room with a nervous smile on my face. I looked around for everyone and saw Jessica, Blake, and Andrea. Then I saw Axel standing there looking at me. I finally felt my shoulders relax and my nervous smile turn into a confident smile. I got to the steps I was about to go up but felt my father grab my hand.
"I love you. And you" He said looking at Axel.
"You better make this girl very happy and if you hurt her your going to have hell to pay." Axel gulped and looked scared for his life. I try not to laugh but I smile real big. He was looking at me for help but I gave him a confirming smile to reassure him he wasn't going to get hurt. I walked up the few steps almost tripping on the red carpet. I finally got to Axel and laced my gingers into his.
"We are here today to celebrate the marriage between Alex Rivermen and Ruby Black in holy matrimony."
"Do you Axel Rivermen take Ruby Black to take in sickness and health and through hard times?"
"I, I, I do." He stutter
"And do you Ruby Black take Axel Rivermen in sickness and health and through hard times?"
"I do." I said
"Then you may kiss the bride." I rapped my arms around Axel neck and kissed him I could feel the happiness against his lips. I pulled away and smiled at the crowd knowing I was married to Axel now."And now for the dance you been waiting for! Axel and Ruby Black!" I walked out with Axel hand and hand. I put my arms his neck and he put his arms around my waist. I followed the pattern I was taught. One, two, three, four. One, two, three, four. I kept counting and followed what he was doing. But he changed up the last part he grabbed my hand and spin me around two times.
"Now time for everyone to join!" The announcer said couples started walking out. I felt a body hug my leg.
"Ruby! Can I dance with you? Please!" Andrea cried her sparkly baby blue dress spin around.
"You sure can." I picked her up and started to move back and forth. The dance finally ended and I was tried. I got to my seat at the head of the table and took a sip of the wine.
"I guess your to tried to dance with me?" I turned around to see my uncle.
"I think my feet can survive one more round." I grabbed his hand and headed to the dance floor.
"So how the family?" I asked
"Well...Thomas is good he's finally taking hunting classes and dancing classes. My wife is good to she is worried about the party. They are over there talking to princess Elena and queen May."
"The queen and princess of Paris? What are they doing here? I talked to Elena a few times but I don't consider her as a friend, friend."
"Well maybe I can ask why they are here or something but I think our dance is over." I realize that the song was ending.
"Okay have a great time tonight Ruby and you know-"
"I know mother talk to me about it." He gave me a nervous glance but changed into a good one.
"I know that you'll make the right choice." He kissed me on my cheek and went back to his table. I walked around for a little bit and saw Axel dancing with his little sister. Mother and father were dancing together and Axel parents were dancing together. I decided to take a walk down the hallway I wanted to see if Mary and Lexi were changing. I caught something to the side of my eye I think it's a person.
"Boo!"
"What in the hell?!" I yelled I turned around to see my cousin Thomas.
"What in the world was that for?" I asked
"Well you seem distracted and I haven't seen you...in a while. So what's going on?" He walked by my side as we went along down the hall.
"Well all and all good there have been attack's as you know and I finally got married." I showed him my ring.
"Wow isn't that great, great, great Melanie grandma ring?"
"Yes it's so...shiny and beautiful the baby blue makes the white shine in the middle."
"Yes it does. As you know mother is trying to make arrangement like for you only with girls, girls! I thought I just had a phobia of them but I think they are going to be the death of me. But they are all lovely from what I hear and there's a few girls from the country that aren't royal so they must be nice. And then father is trying to teach me what mother was like and how he won her over. But I wanted to ask you how you knew Axel was the one?"
"Well...I just thought about how it would be first would he be nice, rude, or cocky. But he was sweet and shy and I like that he was being himself most of the time and he got what it was like living as someone else then who you really are. He made me feel...normal not like I was royalty and I could do anything I wanted. So I guess what I'm saying is find good things about them. Are they honest? Sweet? Or funny? Just find someone you love and you can be yourself around." He thought for a moment thinking about what I just said. He wrapped his arms around me I was shock at first but did the same.
"Thanks that really helps."
"Anytime. And beside we our family."
We talked a little more before we finally went back. I thought about the same thing and the things I said what am I going to do? Am I just going to rule the country with him? Or have a loving relationship like my parents? Mother and father fought sometimes because of taxes, people, or not having enough time with me. But all and all they still made time and found time for each other. So I had to hope that would happen with me and Axel when we were king and queen. I found my way to my seat and looked around to see if anybody notice I was gone. But people were laughing and drinking so I assumed no one did.
"Hello there." I felt Axel kiss my check and went to seat beside me.
"Are you enjoying yourself?"
"Yes I am it seems like my mother and father are having fun to." I looked to see my father and mother dancing.
"Well that's good. My mother and father, about that thing about moving in..."
"You don't have to move in! I was just suggesting."
"No,no they actually wanted to...move in so when...this is embarrassing...but they want to move in so when we have...you know they want to be there." I felt my face turn a little red from what he was saying.
"I understand so I'll tell my parents and we can get everything together, get you guys pack, and ready to move in." We sat there for a few moments not knowing what to say.
"So anything else I should know?"
"Yes one thing ." He leaned in close to my ear.
"I want you." I felt my face heat up.
"Is that so...well we could end the party early." I said I turn to my parents and nodded my head that I wanted to end the party.
"Attention everyone it's getting late and all your rooms are ready. So one more drink and off to bed." Everyone was happy and some sad. I lifted my cup up in the air and drank happily.I felt an arm around my waist I looked over and saw Axel still sleeping. Wait...I look to see if I had a shirt on and I found a brawl instead. And I looked at Axel and found no shirt. Wait we...no...yes we did. I left his arm up and slip out of bed. I walked to my closet to get my clothes on. I got a dress and shoes on I heard a knock on my door. I walked over quietly not to wake Axel up.
"Hello." I saw Mary with a few towels.
"Hello I didn't request any towels."
"I know I thought you might need them seen last time I check you only had four left."
"I'll take them thank you." I closed the door before she could reconsider anything.
"Good morning." Axel said
"Good morning."
"Come over here."
"Hold on." I put the towels on my rack and hoped back in bed.
"So what should we do now?" He asked
"I don't know my mother said I shouldn't have to worry about business for a few days." I said
"That's good so what do you want to do today?"
"I don't know what about...we just chill out today?"
"That sounds good." I felt his arm slide up and down my back.
"I think I'm going to change into away outfit." He grabbed my arm and pulled me to his chest.
"Or there's another way for you to get it off."
