How you fell in Love - Edmund x OC

Chapter Thirty-Four

"And here...they...come!" You smile and squeeze Ed's hand.

He leads you up in a slow dance, muttering weird things and making you laugh.

"What do you call a melon that can't get married?" He whispered.

"What do you call it?" You grinned.

"Cantelope."

"Seriously?" You giggled.

"I should never try puns again." Ed laughs.

"Hey, the music is ending." You pointed out.

"Right."

You both bow and walk over to the first row.

A very long time later,

It was time for the Bride and Groom's speeches!

You give Ed a little push and grin.

"Hello, everyone. If you don't already know, I'm the groom." He started and everyone laughed.

"This has been quite a journey. There are certain people I want to mention.

First and foremost, all my siblings. You guys are the best and thanks for bearing with me all these years. For real. Alexander and James, you guys were like my brothers too. Thank you for being there whenever I wanted advice.

Secondly, the wedding and reception planners, Linda and Sam Bridgers. These siblings put everything together, thank you.

Thirdly, our very own best man, James Blackwood. You were such a great friend to me. Thank you for helping me bring myself together today, along with all my groomsmen. The group did an amazing job.

Fourthly, all the dear ones who attended today's occasion and blessed us, thank you. Please stay for dinner and collect your return gifts on the way back.

Lastly, Adara. I need to thank you for so many things. Thank you for being my rock to my strength, you were always motivating me and urged me to be who I am. You have such a great spirit, never let anyone say otherwise.

Till today, I keep falling for you everyday, sometimes literally.

Most of all, thank you for choosing me. I love you.

Thank you."

Ed stepped away from the microphone and you took over.

"Mine isn't going to be very different from Edmund's here.

Alex, Alice, Kelia, thank you for always being my support system and giving me the best advices when I needed some.

James, my best friend since I was five, I don't know how to thank you. You are my partner in crime, my teacher and my trainer all in one. I'm so glad you're my best friend.

Mrs. Blackwood, thank you for being something like a second mother to me. I love you all so much, thank you.

The guests who took time to attend our special day and celebrate it with us, thank you. As Edmund mentioned, collect your return gifts on your way out.

My maid of honour, Kelia Blackwood. I knew you first but I knew you properly only through James. Thanks for being such an amazing friend to me. My bridesmaids, you fit me together like a puzzle, thank you.

Linda and Sam Bridgers, you guys have such talent in putting together events. Thanks for making this so organised and easy for everyone.

Last bit definitely not the least, Edmund. Thank you for everything you've done and are doing. Thanks for all the courage, kindness and love. Thank you for going an extra mile for so many things. I'm so glad and very lucky to spend my life with you.
