Chapter 37 – Marriage

Jean Verodine

“How’s your butterflies?” My mom asked and I can’t help but a nervous laugh. I’m so happy today but also nervous at the same time. Me and Blake have our wedding in Greece with only our family and friends.

I held my hands together and looked at the mirror. I kept sweating because I’m nervous. What if I trip on my wedding dress? That’s not cool. What if I drop the ring? That will be so embarrassing.

Today, I’m wearing a beautiful off-shoulder wedding dress, with a lacy detailing all over it. It’s really beautiful because it’s simple and elegant at the same time. Alexis helped me to pick this dress.

My hair was pulled into a bun and the make up was really light. Everything is so perfect and I can’t believe that today is my wedding day. Marrying the man I love has always been my dream.

“You okay?” Lexy entered the room with her beautiful soft pink dress. I chose her as my bridesmaid since she’s my one and only bestfriend. She agreed right away and I warned her about Sebastian. He’s Blake’s bestfriend too so of course he will come.

I miss Lexy so much and I’m glad that she comes. She said ‘I’m chicks before dicks kind of girl’, I laughed because of that.

“Hey princess, it’s time.” My dad entered the waiting room and I nodded. He walked to me and held my hand.

“Don’t be so tense.” Lexy chuckled. We walked out from the waiting room and waited for the announcement.

“I can’t believe that I’m sending my daughter to another man.” He said and I smiled to him.

“Oh daddy.”

“If he hurts you, tell me. I’ll kick his butt.” My dad said and I laughed.

“I will note that.”

“Remember that you’re always my little girl and my princess and I’m the king to your heart.” He said as he pointed at my heart.

“Of course.” Suddenly it’s our time to enter the venue. I walked out to the outdoor venue. The guests all stood up and turned to me but my eyes went straight to Blake. He looked at me and he smiled widely.

“I trust you with my daughter, Blake.” My dad said as he handed me to Blake. I chuckled.

“Thankyou, Wesley. Don’t worry, she’s my whole life now.” Blake held me tightly.

“You look so breathtaking.” He said and I smiled.

“You look hot.” I winked.

“You all may be seated.” The priest announced.

"Blake and Jean, no other human ties are more tender, no other vows are more sacred than these you are about to assume. You are entering into that holy estate which is the deepest mystery of experience, and which is the very sacrament of divine love." The priest said and he turned to Blake.

"Blake, will you have Jean, to be your wedded wife, to live together after God's ordinance in the holy estate of matrimony; will you love her, comfort her, honor and keep her, in sickness and in health, and forsaking all others, keep yourself only for her so long as you both shall live?"

"I will." Blake answered and smiled to me.

"Jean, will you have Blake to be your wedded husband, to live together after God's ordinance in the holy estate of matrimony; will you love him, comfort him, honor and keep him, in sickness and in health, and forsaking all others, keep yourself only for him so long as you both shall live?"

"I will." I answered.

We exchanged rings to each other and I can't contain my joy. The butterflies in my stomach just flies everywhere.

"For as much as Blake and Jean have consented in holy wedlock, and have there to confirmed the same by giving and receiving each one a ring; by the authority committed unto me as a minister of the Church of Jesus Christ, I now declare you husband and wife, according to the ordinance of God. In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Amen." The pastor said and held the both of our hands.

"Ladies and Gentleman, may I presented to you Mr. and Mrs. Samuel. You may kiss the bride." Blake smirked and pulled me for a kiss. The kiss is really sweet and slow. The guests clapped their hands.

"I love you damn much." Blake said between kisses.

"I love you more, Mr. Samuel." I circled my arms around him and he hugged my waist tightly.

"You're making me crazy each day, Mrs. Samuel" He said.

THE END.
