《For-Getting You》64. Vows
Advertisement
I'm very very anxious, today is the day the day I dreamt of, the day that's coming in my life after a wait which feels like eternity, glancing up in mirror the anxieties are eminent on my face,
Usually the thing what can make any girl anxious is if somebody does their bad makeup on their wedding but that's not the case here especially when the best makeup artist and hairstylist will take the matter in their good hands,
I'm uneasy because I'm just nervous because it's my wedding, today I'll step into a new life I'm excited as well as nervous, I think I'm overreacting or maybe I'm right these feelings can come when everytime you take a step towards your love and destiny drags it far from you, the feelings of losing him again the feeling that destiny will change its color again scares me,
I hope everything will be great, I sigh calm down Erika calm down its just your wedding look everything is good, look how beautiful you look a whole different person, my hairs knotted in a chignon bun with few strands covering my face, a diamond floral hair clip decorating it, Mary gift this to me and I love it,
My makeup is not too much it's subtle yet a little much as for my preference, my eyes have mix of dark and pastel pink the black making it look smokey and the pink adding a romantic feeling to it, my cheeks looks more pink, I'm glad that didn't chose some weird lip shade but it's a lovely pink shade that I never know existed, Troy also gave me diamond earrings I really love the small droplets shining I complained him about giving me these expensive jewels I suck at handling them the though scares me what if I'll lose them, he dismissed it saying a lot is yet to come I'm sure I'm few months I'll turn into a walking shop of jewelry,
The thing that I can't over is my gown I'm literally in love with it, it's like a dream dress of Disney princess, A perfect sweetheart neckline the beautiful lace petals made with precision on sheer lace fabric covers the bodice upon seeing it looks as if they are glued on my skin and my arms, its hugging me on my waist the bonny skirt cascades down making heavy fall, the room I'm standing in is huge and the fabric of my dress is covering it kinda entirely from behind, it's pure art piece of lace work I love how they have made it the skirt also have the same petals lace design on it it looks like a waterfall of lace, I really appreciate the designers they are so talented they have a master piece, Troy haven't seen it yet I'm excited to see his reaction he have chose my reception dress I'm excited to see it as well,
There only one problem it's backless, though shreds of lace leaves covers a little from both the sides but the middle part of my back above my hip bone remains exposed, it's making me shivers I have never wear anything this revealing,
Look Erika how beauteous you look I never even imagined that I'll look like this on my wedding day, duh you never give it a thought at all, that's true I never paid attention on getting married, maybe because my love was not with me all these years now I feel complete,
Opening the door a chirping voice comes in "Erika everything is read" seeing my appearance Mary chokes in her words, I hope for good,

"Oh Mary move" Betty speaks in annoyed voice her eyes falls on me and her mouth let's out "Wow"
"Guys are you going to say something or gonna give me these stares" I asked anticipated to hear their reviews,
"You look beautiful" Mary says fanning her face dramatically as her eyes tears up,
"Yeah you look really beautiful I'm certain your Mr.Arrogant is gonna shit in his expansive suit pant"Betty repeats smiling widely,
"Then go get a diaper" Mary collabs in her joke,
"Watch it he is my husband" I don't want to hear jokes on him, though it's funny,
"I'm sorry" they says in unison, they both already look like twins in their aesthetic pastel pink color gowns, their hairstyles are different Betty is flaunting her curls complimenting her radiant makeup, and half updo compliments her sublime look,
"Thank You" I reply hugging both of them at same time,
"I can't tell you how happy I'm for you" Betty announces,
"True Erika it's feels so good to see you like this" Mary is still emotional,
"Come on girls stop crying or you'll ruin your mascara" I can't see her cry,
"It's alright mom look your daughter is happy now" Betty wipes lightly on Mary's eyes, she chuckles,
"Alright Betty, let's go and tell him that she ready" they both starts to leave,
"Everything is good right" my anxious soul is troubling me now,
"Yeah it's perfect" they both said in unison, giggling looking at each other they leaves,
My eyes checks the time on my phone screen its almost the time I feel my stomach churns, I turn around with the click of door, and my eyes couldn't believe on the scene, my breath becomes heavy as emotions awakens in me seeing him standing at door,
I don't know if I'm dreaming or it's real, whatever it is I don't want it to leave my sight, I can't believe that my brother Ethan is standing in front of me, slowly crying I take my step towards him, I touch him and he is real he is my brother, he come back, he is back to fulfill his duty, he looks down at me smiling,
"I knew you would come" I hug my brother tears flows out of my eyes I don't care about my makeup or anything all matters is that, my dearest brother is here for me on my wedding to walk me to isle,
"You look like a princess I wish all the happiness for you" he whispers,
I know my brother was also one of them but I can't get angry to him unlike my father he was always there for me he loves me like I'm his daughter he is a father to me,
"I knew you'll come" I keep chanting the same thing, crying my heart out on his torso,
"Erika" he caresses my head lightly,
Sniffing I look up to his face, how is this possible, the eyes which were having tears was filled with shock now, what is this? Is mind is playing tricks on me? I was hallucinating? Was it all a dream? But it felt real,
No it can't be,
I can't deny that I saw him but if he was real then where he is gone now, it's not Ethan standing in front of me but Erik,
"Erika are you alright" he asked his voice laced with concern,
He thinks I'm going crazy "He won't come back" I mummers,
"Erika it's okay" he hugs me again comforting me,
I know it's bad to cry like this on my wedding but I can't help it,

"Erika, I know you love your brother a lot and he loved you a lot but so do I" I glance up at him "Yes Erika you may have lost your one brother but your this brother will never leave you I'm here and I promise to protect you even if someday Troy troubles you remember I'll be one call away to kick his angry ass" he jokes making me giggle a little "Now come on fix your makeup and let's go your groom is beyond frenzied to see you" with a smile he said cupping my face,
So am I, not before fixing my mascara or he'll forget about the vows instead he'll keep on singing the same song what happened? Are you alright? Etc etc,
I step out with Erik, a little shiver runs down my spine, I know my father should be walking with me but I don't think so the person who risked my life and is half responsible for my brothers death deserves it, so I did invite him but not expecting him,
We walk near the big door, along with the door my mouth also opens seeing the hall, it was outworldly beautiful, the whole ceiling was decorated with pink and lavender flowers, sheer curtains with lights, lights trees with blossom flowers on them, dangling light balls, it looks like I'm in some fairytale,
And my Prince stands there on alter, I can hear guests gasping and whispering saying I look beautiful, It was making me nervous until I beheld the most beautiful eyes which were having tears that he was trying to hide but he is failing,
Your wait is over Troy,
I was very anxious, today not because of wedding come on I have been dreaming of it, it's more of agitation to see her I'm very excited how she'll look into pristine gown, I wonder will she look the same like saw in dream no Troy she'll look more beautiful,
I'm again and again watching time in my watch, I can't wait to see her, Troy get a grip you have waited for years it's just few more minutes and she'll be mine forever,
My trail of my thoughts halts when my eyes falls on the face I want see for the rest of my life, My Erika was coming with Erik, looking graceful as goddess, I worship her already,
Her strands on her face, her starry eyed looking down in shyness, as everybody is complimenting her, in the dress she looks like an angel, my words are not enough to tell about her beauty, it's something that I have never seen it's outworldly,
I always wanted this I always wanted her but I thought It'll never be fulfilled, and now living this moment makes me overwhelmed with emotions, I try my best to control yet I'm failing miserably as tears starts to gather in my eyes,
Mr. Dashwood gets up from his chair standing in front of her, he is much better now I know how much it sucks to be alone so I called him up, he is recovering now he is happy that Erika remembers most of the things and is safe,
My angel stares at him blankly, I know she is still angry but I also know how much she loves him,
"You look beautiful my daughter" he speaks his voice cracking up a little "I'm sorry for what I did I know it's unforgivable yet I want a last chance from you"
She looks at me as if she is trying to remember how much he hurt me, but I can't let that stop her from reconcile with her father, at least he is here for her speaking of mine I called him to invite him he hung up saying he is busy yeah not before asking for money,
But no regrets now I have a family, my friends and my love,
Bounding her eyes in mine I blink them gesturing an alright with a smile, nodding her head slightly she gives me a warm teary smile, she falls in his arms crying forgiving him,
Its uneasy to see her crying, my fingers itch to wipe those tears, these eyes always wants to see her smiling,
After hugging her daughter he says sorry again, to which she says it's alright again and again, he wipes her tears, taking her hand in his he asks Erik to take her being an sensible guy as always he nods giving him Erika's hand,
He starts walking towards the alter where I'm standing impatiently, my beautiful love walks towards me looking like an angel from heaven, she looks so beautiful so pure, a part of me still can't believe it that finally she'll be mine, finally my life will complete.
My father takes me to him, the excitement is evident on his face and his tears speaks about his happiness, my father stands in front of him giving him an emotional smile, Troy reciprocates the same as if they are having some secret talk,
He glides my hand in Troy's warm hand, returning to his place, priest is looking at us smiling, I stand in front of him "Beautiful" he breaths out,
Blushing I lower my gaze, from handsome face of my love, the ceremony starts Priest starts reciting "We are gathered here today in the sight of God, and the presence of friends and loved ones, to celebrate one of life’s greatest moments. We are here to give recognition to the worth and beauty of love, and to add our best wishes and blessings to the words that will unite Miss.Erika Dashwood and Mr.Troy Adams in holy matrimony"
"Marriage is a beautiful and most important earthly relationship, it should be entered in reverently and with full understanding of its pure and sacred nature, your union shall always stand by the strength of your love and your faith on one another and on God, remember to make a beautiful tapestry two threads are woven just like that both of your lives are woven together in this pure bond to make a beautiful marriage"
"Love is very patient and kind, never jealous or envious, never boastful or proud. Love is never haughty or selfish or rude. Love does not demand it’s own way. Love is not irritable or touchy. Love does not hold grudges and will hardly notice when others do it wrong. Love is never glad about injustice, but rejoices whenever truth wins out. If you love someone, you will be loyal to them no matter what the costs. You will always believe in them, always expect the best in them, and will always stand your ground in defending them"
Holding hands we keep looking into each others eyes, we both have teary eyes, I love how emotional he is,
"Mr.Troy Adams do you take Miss.Erika Dashwood to be your wedded wife" Priest asks,
"I Do" he answers quickly, making his friends chuckle at his impatience,
"Do you promise to love, honor, cherish and protect her, forsaking all others and holding only unto her forevermore?"
"I do" he replies again looking at me lovingly,
"Miss.Erika Dashwood do you take Mr.Troy Adams to be your wedded husband?"
"I do" a smile spread across my face,
"Do you promise to love, honor, cherish and protect him, forsaking all others and holding only unto him forevermore?"
"I do" I can do anything for him,
"The ring is a symbol of the unbroken circle of love. Love freely given has no beginning and no end, no giver and no receiver for each is the giver and each is the receiver. May these rings always remind you of the vows you have taken" they bring the rings,
Troy slides the shinning beauty with the biggest diamond in my finger god it's filled with diamonds he and his gifts,
I slide the silvery perfect band with two diamonds embedded in it, in his finger it's just like him elegant and perfect,
"I pray that you both will always be together and walk on the path of the commitment you both have pledged today with the power vested in me I pronounce you husband and wife" everyone cheers "You may kiss the bride"
As soon as he finishes his sentence sliding his hand in my waist he pulls me to him, I bump on to his rigid torso, his lips latches on mine passionately, he is kissing me quite differently today the desperation is clear in it, I try my best to match up his speed kissing him back but its unmatched,
He is not at all bothered by the presence around us as he kisses me carelessly, but my eyes shuts down in embarrassment, today I think he'll such up my air, not that I'm complaining I'm loving our kiss, he finally breaks it his hand behind my head he joins our heads together "I Love you Mrs.Erika Troy Adams" he speaks,
"I love you too" I answer back still catching my breath, his dashing face lights up in a dazzling smile,
Finally we are together, the love that was roaming aimlessly finally found its destination, it come into the arms of my beloved I promise to fulfil every vow I took today with him I'll be with him for eternity I'll love him deeply I'll protect him from everything I'll give my loyalty and my every love to him he is the only man ever come in my heart and he'll be in forevermore, God gave me everything today, I feel tranquil with him everyone is happy, I just pray that this happiness will beam forever.
