Lilly stood by her mother, with a bundle of red tulips in her hand, admiring her mother's wedding dress. The dress perfectly complimented her curves and her tall body was perfect for the long, flowing dress that trailed down to the floor. The veil clipped to her curly brown hair and was beautifully placed over her face. Lilly's mother, Jasmine, held onto her groom's hand and waited for the I dos.
The groom, Ethan, held tightly to his beautiful wife's hands. He couldn't believe this day had finally come, he was about to marry the love of his life at 23 years old. The only thing that bothered Ethan was Jasmine's child, Lilly. He never liked children, in fact he hated children with a burning passion, but he would never tell Jasmine that.
Jasmine had never mentioned Lilly when she was dating Ethan. She had waited until Ethan proposed about a month ago to tell him about Lilly. Hearing that news, destroyed Ethan inside, but he put on a happy face for Jasmine and acted like everything was okay. Whenever Lilly was around her mother, Ethan would often fantasize about Lilly's death and every possible way she could die in that moment. If they were outside, he would imagine a car coming out of nowhere and running her over, and if they were inside he would imagine himself grabbing whatever was closest and beating her with it until her life left her eyes. Sometimes Jasmine would see him smiling in delight and she would ask what he was so happy about, and he would always reply with, "Just thinking about our future together."
Now, the wedding was finally here and their future was about to begin. The happy guests sat in white, wooden chairs with white flower heads lining the back of the chair. The aisle that Ethan had walked on was made of carefully placed stone, that was dug into the sands of the beach. The ocean met the beach just a few feet away from the bride and groom, whom stood under a wooden wedding arch that was covered in red roses. The priest stood just outside of the wedding arch, reading the very question Jasmine was waiting for.
"Do you, Jasmine Waters, take this man, Ethan Smith, to be your lawfully wedded husband?"
"I do." Jasmine replied, happily.
"Now, do you Ethan Smith, take Jasmine Waters, to be your lawfully wedded wife?" Asked the priest.
"I do." Ethan replied, smiling
"You may now kiss the bride." Said, the priest
Ethan let go of Jasmine's hands to place his right hand on her cheek, before slowly going in for a kiss. When their mouths locked together in a loving embrace, the crowd stood up from their wooden chairs and cheered for the new husband and wife.
When they finished kissing, the crowd moved toward the round dinning tables with a white cloth covering the table's wooden surface. Each table sat eight people, with a paper name tags on the table, indicating where everyone should sit. There is a long rectangle table that is positioned in front of the round tables, where the bride, groom, and bride's daughter will sit.
Once everyone was settled in thier seats, Jasmine stands up and announces that there will be a toast from the bride herself, the groom, and whomever else wishes to give a toast.
"I am not very good with words, but when it comes to Ethan, I somehow know what to say. I love Ethan, and I am so excited to share the rest of my life with such an amazing guy that really gets me, and loves me even with all my flaws." Jasmine says, before sitting back down in her chair, and wiping away a tear from her eyes.
Ethan stands up from his chair as soon as Jasmine is no longer standing.
"Jasmine is my whole world, I see her in the moon because she is always there to give me light in the darkness, I see her in the sun, always giving me warmth in her hugs, I see her in the green grass, so full of life, and when someone cuts her down she always gets back up again. Jasmine is the reason I get out of bed in the morning, and now I will be seeing her beautiful face every day for the rest of my life, and I couldn't be happier." Ethan says, holding up a glass of champagne.
Everyone holds up their glass in response, before taking a sip, and cheering for the heart felt speeches and the happy couple.
