Song: For you By Liam Payne and Rita Ora

My dad takes my arm into his and we walk out. I didn't know his family was also going to be there. They must have showed up while I have been getting ready. Not that it took me that long, ok a couple of hours but hell I had to try on like five dresses and then do the makeup and hair and so on.

ReAnn turns to me and hands me a bouquet of different shades of purple roses. The music starts to play and everyone turns around in their seats to look at me. I guess she is my girl because she walks up the aisle first to meet up with Gabe and Vincent. My eyes meet his and his expression is priceless.

 I feel my dad grasp my arm a little harder and he looks over at me. "You alright?"

I nod, not realizing that I had been trembling until he held me tighter in his grasp. All the way up, we walk over the purple petals from the roses. When we get close to Vincent my dad releases me and shakes his hand and then turn to kiss me on the cheek. "I love you."

"I love you too dad." I peck his cheek back.

Vincent takes both of my hands into his. We start out with the normal type wedding and then the main vows come. Shit I did not prepare for this; I'm so glad that he goes first. His eyes sparkle back at me.

"My dearest Katana...I knew the moment that I saw you that you would be mine. I didn't know how long it would take but I knew one day it would happen. I made some stupid mistakes and I'm sure I will do more; I just hope that you will continue to forgive me. I have never loved anyone the way I love you and this is all new territory for me." He grins wide at me and I see all his pretty white teeth. "I will do everything in my power to make you happy. I will give you the world and so much more. From this day forward you are my queen and I will worship the ground you walk on. If you will have me...for who I am...breathe..." He tells me with a smile.

Shit I was holding my breath. I was trying not to cry dammit, I let out my lungs and say, "I do."

Vincent takes hold of my hand and slips on this spectacular diamond ring on my finger and it takes my breath away.

The minister looks at me, "Katana would you like to say your vows?"

I nod. I had not planned any of this. I have no clue what to say. I would rather say forget it or ditto to what he said but I know that is not going to work. I feel like I am taking too long to think of something and he doesn't rush me. He just smiles and looks at me longingly.

Vincent:

I can't believe she is doing this. A couple of hours ago she was having a fit about all of this. Then the moment she sees the place all decorated her mind changes, maybe her heart. I know she loves me. I know that she is just scared to make that commitment. She has been hurt so many times in her life. But I swear on my life that I will never ever let anything ever happen to her again.

While she is getting ready trying on dresses, I find her dad and talk with him. "Mr. Harlow...can I have a word."

"Sure."

We take a few steps out of hearing distance. "Katana has changed her mind. She decided that she does want to get married after all. She is worried that you will be upset because you had your hopes up on marrying Marcie. I hope you will understand and accept the decision that she has made."

"Son...as long as my little girl is happy that is all that matters. If you can promise me that you will make sure that she will always be safe, that you will care for her no matter what happens from here on out, you have my blessing."

"Thank you sir." I hold my hand out for him to shake.

"You're welcome. Now guess I better go see what my girl is doing?"

"I'm sure she would be happy to see you."

 As her dad walks into the house. I see my parents walk around to greet me. Of course my mom is already crying. "I never would have thought I would see the day; she must be some girl."

"She is mom." I hug her back and then shake my dad's hand. "She should be almost ready; her dad just went in to check on her. Please get a drink, find a place to sit." I hold my hand out for them to find a seat.

I walk up towards the archway and talk to the minister for a few minutes, giving him the details of what all I want. I don't want anything to go wrong. This has to be the perfect day. Gabe walks over towards us and then I hear the music start to play. Everyone turns to look. I see ReAnn walk up and she is full of smiles.

 But my eyes search for Ana and the moment I see her my heart melts. She picked the perfect dress. The one that I actually really liked...simple. Although I would love to see a string of diamonds around her neck, I will make sure she has some as soon as we get back home. I can't take my eyes off of her, god she is so beautiful and I can't believe she is going to be mine. I take her hands into mine and they are trembling.

The whole time I say my vows, I notice that she is holding in her breath and I think back to that first day during the interview after I braided her hair. The whole time she was holding her breath and I had to remind her to breathe. The moment she says 'I do' I know there is no going back.

Now she is looking at me, her eyes glisten with tears. I know I put her on the spot and she is trying to figure out what to say.

"Vincent..." Her lips are moving but no voice is coming out at first. I watch as she closes her eyes and take another breath; then slowly opens to look back up into mine in awe.  God seeing her this way makes shivers run down my spine.

"There are no words...I don't know if any words can express the way I feel for you. I never thought I would end up here." She looks out towards the ocean and I follow her gaze. I look out towards the horizon, the waves coming to shore look so inviting. The sky is even a magnificent blue, not one single cloud in the sky. We look back at each other at the same time.

 "You always seem to know what I am thinking...hell you planned all of this knowing I would say yes to you." She smile. "I bet you even knew I would pick this dress...didn't you."

I nod. Yep, I knew this would be the one, it's so much like her.

"I don't know what the future holds. However I know you love me. I know deep in my heart that you would die for me if it came down to it. I have been through so much in my life and you...you are the only one that has ever put me first, well besides my dad. You try everything in your power to make me happy. I...I...love you for that. I love how you care so much for me. I want to make you happy the way you make me happy. From this day forward I promise to you that I will try to always be there for you. I want to be there in the mornings when you wake up and at night in your arms and all the in-betweens. I want to see you look at me like you are right now everyday for the rest of my life. I'm sure we will have our moments but I am willing to take this journey with you. I want to be yours if you will have me for who I am." I let her words sink in but her eyes get my attention more, so full of emotion and love. God I know she is the one for me and I am never fucking this up.

Hell yes, I want you forever by my side. "Saro sempre tua amore mio." I tell her and I already know she has no idea what I said so I smirk and lean into her and whisper in her ear in English.  "I will always be yours my love." 

The moment she reaches down to grab the matching ring to match hers I fight back tears of joy. I let her glide the ring onto my finger and when our eyes meet again we are both fighting back tears but she lets hers escape.  The minister starts talking and I don't really focus on the first apart of what he is saying then I hear him say, "I now pronounce Mr. Vincent Moretti and Mrs. Katana Moretti; you may kiss the bride." I waste no time to take her sweet salty lips against mine. I reach up and wipe the few tears with the back of my hand.

"God I love you...you are finally mine."

The rest of the night is amazing. The song choices, speeches, catering,
everything just the way I planned it. I so cant wait to get out of here, because the next two weeks is just me and her.
