A Story With No End *Robert Manion*

30-2

I interlock my fingers with Robert's as we took pictures in the park next to the reception venue. I smiled at him as my free hand made its way to his cheek and held it there. He leaned into it and stared directly into my eyes
"I love you" I smiled at his words and closed my eyes pulling him into a hug as flashes went off around us
"I love you" I smiled. I heard the tapping of paws as D/n bolted towards us and jumped up on Robert's legs. We both laughed as he patted the dog on the head "Does anyone have a lint roller?" I asked around as Joey got ahold of D/N and Rhi handed me what I asked for. I thanked her with a nod and started to clean off rob's pants
"Thank you my love" he kissed my forehead and took my hand
"Are we ready?" Lauren asked. We both nodded at her and started to walk towards our reception. Rob held up my train as we walked through the grass. Everyone cheered as we stepped through the doors to the open ballroom. I smiled and thanked everyone as we made our way to our seats.
"Y/n, Rob" Lauren started standing in the middle of the dance floor "I'd be lying if I said I didn't see this coming the second you two met. You just clicked, instantly"
"Heck yeah they did" Nick chimed in smiling at us everyone softly laughing in the background
"Shut up Nick" Lauren jokingly complained "I'm giving a speech here"
"Sorry sorry" he laughed adjusting his tie
"As i was saying before i was so rudely interrupted"
"Ok lauren get on with it" I smiled, my fingers interlocked with robs under the table
"Ok alright ok, i'll make it quick. You two are perfect for eachother and are always there for the other. I wish you the best and all the happiness in this world. With that being said" She nudged her head and walked backwards where mic stands were
"Rob?" I asked as he stood up
"Come on Mrs.Manion" I smiled at the name as he pulled me up
"I know a thousand tales, to fill a thousand nights" Meredith started singing as tears filled up in my eyes. One by one Lauren, Joey, Brian, Dylan, and Jaime all joined in almost as if I was in a dream. Rob started to sway our bodies as people all around us filmed with their flashes on. A Tear dropped out of my eyes and rob wiped it away
"Hey now, you're ruining your beautiful makeup love" he kissed the top of my head
"Its all just so surreal"
"What is?" He asked looking deeply into my eyes, I returned the action
"Being here with you.." his smile widened if even possible
"I love you, so much" another tear fell down my face as he spoke. His hand cupped my cheek as I looked up in hopes to stop my tears from forming
"I love you more"
"I love you most"
"Hey Rob?" I looked back into his eyes
"Yes my love"
"Thank you for letting me be apart of your story"
"Apart of it?" he chuckled "You ARE my story y/n"
"A thousand and one life times is not enough to spend. So lets make ours a story with no end... So lets make ours a story"
"With no end" I joined in but only loud enough so that he could hear me. We pulled apart and both clapped with everyone else in the room. I wiped my eyes carefully before quickly turning my head towards a video projected on a screen. I did a double take hearing the voice come out of the speakers
"Hiya Honey Bun"
"How did-" I looked at Rob as he just smiled resting his hand on the small of my back nudging his head back to the screen
"I hope this recording gets to you safely on the day it's supposed too" The sight of him in his hospital room hooked up to wires broke my heart "I wanted to make sure I got to be there on your big day, whether it be in person or in spirit" A tear fell down my face. "I wish you all the greatness you gave me. You made my life worth living honey bun, You were my ray of sunshine. Just like the song I taught you when you were little. You remember? you are my sunshine..."
"My only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are grey. You'll never know dear how much I love you" I mumbled along to his words
"You'll never take my sunshine away" he smiled at the screen as the video ended everyone around me cheered. Robert started to pull a red velvet covered box out of his jacket
"What is this"
"Its uh, from your grandpa.." Everyone quieted down again "I told him that I planned on marrying you one day. Today's that day, obviously" He opened the box to reveal a gold chain with a small sunflower pendant on it. I turned around so rob could clip it on as I heard aws around us
"Ok ok, enough crying. My make ups already ruined" everyone laughed as I spoke
"Alright" Jon pulled up a chair "Sit" he pointed" I laughed as a bunch of the guys all stood on the dance floor Rob speaking up staring directly at me dramatically
"I'm swamped" I made an O with my mouth knowing exactly what was coming. The girls all crowded behind me to get a good view "With business" Rob tossed his suit jacket at me
"Oh god" I laughed as a remixed version of working boys started playing "James did you choreograph this?" He smiled at me shrugging then winked as they all started dancing. I clapped as I laughed hysterically "Please tell me someone's recording" I looked around and smiled at the sight of all the cell phones up in the air people cheering around the group. Once they finished I had tears from laughter on the corners of my eyes
