Then, Now, and Forever. [afi]

There I was walking down the isle dressed in my shimmering white gown, I glance over and see my family on the right, I look the over to the left only to be greeted by his, and straight ahead I saw him.
I felt like crying, it didn't matter how many times I looked at him, he still made me feel the same way; safe. I did my best to ignore this overwhelming feeling. The music continued to play as my mind began to wander. How could I possibly get here, one day Im walking through the park single as could be and the next I'm in the arms of the man I love.
No literally. Both of us were equally clumsy and I quite literally fell into his arms.
"let me help you up." He said, I held my hand out letting him help me up, our eyes connected and for a second, "I'm so sorry, are you ok " he asked, "I am now" I replied,
thinking this would be my fairytale wedding, it all came crashing down in the space of 30 seconds; and that's when I started to feel sick. I can't go through with this, I'm only 19 this is way too early to get married, I'm certain I love him but we've only been dating for 7 months, what if he realizes I snore or I take hour baths?
"I can't" I whispered, his once strong face broke as I began to walk away, tears already streaming down my face.
"No wait Pease!" He called.
My walking turned into a jog towards the doors and into the dressing room locking the door behind me. Now lightleaded,  I slowly lowered myself onto the floor, my makeup that had taken hours to perfect was smudged and ran sheerly down my face, I looked like a pastel mess. Everything was silent, and time froze still for what felt like an eternity. Then, a faint knock came from outside the door,
"Please let me in" Ashton croaked from behind the door,
Guilt had washed over me, it was obvious by the way he spoke that he had been crying.
Slowly, I made my way to unlocking the door. Letting my love in, not knowing what to expect.
The first thing I felt was his warm body embracing mine.
"I'm so sorry Ashton, I must've made you look like a fool in front of everyone." The crook of my arms wrapped around his neck as his were holding my lower back.

"No, it's okay; you weren't ready, I understand." He tried to force a smile.
"I dont know how you can still love me." I whispered faintly, I couldn't say it any louder. He caressed my cheek with his hand as I melted into him.

"No matter what you do I'll still love you, I loved you then, I love you now and I'll love you forever, do you understand?" He spoke clearly.

"You're my shining star, ash." I smiled.

"I would say the same, but you aren't just a star to me, you're my entire sky."
