Eikko and Me- A Selection Story

Chapter 1

Today was the day that would change my life forever. Well, it already has been changed since the coronation. But, today was going to be the happiest day of my life. Eikko was going to watch me walk down the church aisle, with Dad by my side. I was so nervous, but at the same time excited to see my future husband watching me.

Neena and Miss Marlie were helping me get dressed in my Wedding gown, with Mom right next to them. Miss Marlie was excited today. Not only for me but to see her son again. He had promised me to come back for the wedding, so I flew him in. He ended up meeting someone there. Her name was Alice. She and Kile were connected, and I was so happy for my dear friend.

The dress was a flowy, white sleeveless ballgown dress. Hale had designed it, and I loved the way it fit my body. I watched as Mom started to get tears in her eyes.

"Don't cry, Mom! I already have my makeup on! I can not have it redone!"

"I can't help it! My baby girl is getting married to the love of her life today, and I just want to be there, supporting and loving you! You will not be a Schreave anymore, and it is so hard watching you grow up! It feels like just yesterday, you and Ahren were born, making me and your father parents."

"It's ok Mom. I am ok. I will always be a Schreave in my heart. The word Koskinen will not change that! It will change to 'Eadlyn Helena Margarete Schreave de Koskinen.'" I had practiced that name many times before. I thought I would hate the long name, but I loved it more than ever. "Do you remember why I became a queen early? It was for you and Dad to live life more, and for you to take a break. I will always be your baby girl, and I love you." I hugged her to ease the tension. She continued to cry, but I held her tight, so she knew it would be ok. Then, Dad came in to see what was taking so long. She noticed him, and wiped away her tears, walking up to him.

"What are you beautiful lady's doing in here? Eikko is definitely nervous. He is ready to see your beautiful face. I just spoke to him. I know he will love and take care of you for your whole life, just like your Mom and I have done. I am so proud of you Eady. You followed your heart and did what nobody would have ever done."

"Thank you, Dad. I am so nervous because the whole world will be watching me. I just want to end the day, with my husband in my arms. Knowing you and Mom support me and Eikko is the best feeling in the world!"

I ran up to him, and Mom walked up to. All three of us embraced on a nearby couch. Neena and Miss Marlee just stood there smiling. Dad kissed Mom's hairline, and they shared a look. I knew they were thinking of something, but I could not tell what it was. I could live the rest of my life knowing I was loved. 

Then, Ahren walked into the room and stared at me. He then looked at Mom and Dad. He gave them a questioning look, and Mom and Dad nodded. He then came to join us. He was wearing a suit, with the French flag on his right shoulder, and with new medals, I did not recognize. I knew he could not stay long because he would have to get back to his wife, Princess Camille. Kaden and Osten followed him in a moment later, practically running to us. They joined us and embraced us. I felt a bit awkward, as the six of us were together on the couch, but nobody seemed to really mind. I had never felt so loved in my life than today. I stayed in that hug, hoping to stay there for a little while. It would be the last family hug with me as a Schreave, and I knew that I had fo make it count. That hug proved one thing to me. Us Schreave's were unstoppable. The last name change would not stop me.

~HELLO! I AM SO EXCITED FOR YOU GUYS TO SEE THE REST OF EADLYN AND EIKKO'S ADVENTURES! I HOPE YOU ARE ENJOYING THIS! (I hope I don't have too many errors) Be free to leave polite constructive criticism in the comments!~
