(D-Day)
It's today. The big day. The ceremony isn't scheduled until 12, but it's only 8 right now. There are all types of people in my room. They are doing Ella's hair, makeup, nails. Wendy comes into the room, she still looks tired.
"Hey, Wendy?" I say.
"Hi Candy," she says yawning.
"Today's is the day," I say cheerfully.
"It is," Wendy says.
"Are you excited, Ella?" I ask.
"Yeah, I'm so nervous," Ella says.
"I had the same feeling, when I married Marco, I remember not being able to sleep the night before," Wendy says.
My mom comes in.
"Good morning girls," she says.
"Good morning," we all say back.
"Mom, were you nervous when you married dad?" Ella asks.
"Well, of course. Marriage is a big thing, we should look carefully at the person before we decide, I should have looked more carefully," my mom says at last.
We all laugh.

By the time we are all done with makeup and hair, it's already 11. My mom left earlier, to check the preparations. We all help Ella put on her dress. Ella's dress is not puffy, it's simple, but has the class to it. Her dress is long. It has a train, the train has white flowers scattered everywhere. It sounds messy, but it's the most beautiful thing.
"Ella you look gorgeous, like a god," I say amazed.
"Not to that extent," Ella says.
"You truly are beautiful," Wendy says.
I put on my dress. My dress is long also. It's gold. It has a slit in the leg that goes up to the thigh and has thin straps. I didn't pick the dress, Ella did. She said this dress is good. I can't go against her if she wants me to wear it. I like the dress though it's just a little bit too much. By the time we all put our clothes on it's time to leave for the venue. Wendy leaves first. The stylists and staff that helped us left also. Leaving me with Ella.
(Knock knock)
My dad comes in.
"Ella, you look beautiful today," he says.
"Only today?" She asks.
"No you're beautiful every day, but especially today," he says.
"Thank you, Dad," Ella says.
"Candy, you look beautiful too... my daughters are beautiful, Karl's family are going to be stunned." My dad says.
"They better be," I say.
"Okay, should we go?" My dad asks.
"Yeah, let's go!" I say.

We are getting close to the area. Everyone has already entered. It's just the flower girls and me. Then Ella with my dad. The flower girls are in gold dresses. Their dresses are very puffy and it's adorable. It's my cue to enter. I'm so nervous. I walk on the path. All I see is the end of the path. I walk and on my way. I see Wendy and my mom smiling. Mera is also smiling, everyone is happy. I look at the stage. Leo is standing there, next to Samuel. He smiles at me. I smile back. I finally get to the end. I then see the flower girls coming and the bride song plays. Everyone stands. Ella comes walking with my dad. Her beauty stands out. I can see that my dad is tearing up, but he's trying to be tough. I then look at Samuel. He's smiling so wide. Ella and my dad get to the front of the stage. Samuel goes and picks up Ella. He hugs my dad and my dad goes and sits down.

"We are here today, to witness the marriage of Samuel Emerald and Elisa Goldy," the priest says.
The priest goes on and talks about marriage and everything in between. And things after marriage. The priest finally gets to the vows and the rings. I've been standing on the stage with heels for the last 30 mins. 

Finally, Samuel and Ella exchange vows and puts the rings on. They kissed and everyone cheered. The ceremony is finally done. Ella and Samuel descend down, now it's me and Leo's turn. I hold his arms and we walk down.

After the ceremony, there are many events planned but I'm tired, plus my feet are killing me. My bruises are not all the way healed yet also. I decide to walk to the beach for fresh air. I take off my heels. I walk around for a while and I notice someone is following me.
And this person is getting closer to me. I look back and it's Leo. I stop and look at him. He stands 10 feet from me.
"You look beautiful today," he says smiling.
"You look handsome also," I say.
He takes a few steps closer.
"Thank you," he says.
"For what?" I say confused.
"Thank you for everything," he then says.
He takes a big leap and is in front of me. He grabs my waists and looks down at me.
"You're cute, you're always you..." he says.
I look up at him. I see his eyes. They were the first thing I saw when I met him. I smile at him.
"I couldn't ask for someone better," I say.
Leo comes in to kiss my forehead. He looks at me.
"I love you, Candy, from the day I met you." He then says.
"I love you too," I say, hugging him, putting my head on his chest.

"Thanks to destiny, for making us meet,"
I don't look up or move, I just hug him tighter.
"Hey, they're calling for you guys," Will says in the distance

Leo lets go of me and looks down at me. 

"Should we go?" he then asks.
"Let's go," I say smiling.
