The sound of the music send chills down my spine, a took in a large amount of air into my lungs, trying to fill myself up with courage, encouraging myself that I can do this, that I was not the first person to, many people have found themselves in this scenario and handled it better, should I really be any different?.
I took the first step in, the man holding me was the same man that I got into torture today, Fred. Like Mrs Jennifer had said, I would be handed over to the Patrick's by a non Patrick, a right meant for my father to have, but due to the fact none of my people were here, Fred was the only non Patrick here, so he's the one to walk me down the aisle.
Pair of eyes were staring at me while we walk in, glares from friends and enemies, I don't actually know how to categories them, Maya was the only one here who serves as a true friend, despite not knowing much about her yet. Liam, who was to be my husband as well treats me like a close friend, a sister, a mother, a teacher, an aunt, a girlfriend and as well as a wife.
Our relationship was a thrilling one that can never get boring, always having something else we're always looking forward to, either adventure, vacations, home activities, sex, there's a lot more, the relationship always being spiced up and interesting. With his pair of eyes staring at me, I felt safe, really safe in his stare, feeling like the hand holding mine which actually belongs to Fred, now belonged to him, like I was in his hold, feeling safe and taken care of.
Just like Maya has promised before this moment, she does know exactly what I needed, and I never really thought that I did needed them until she brought it to me. She already prepared me a nice dish, knowing that my body was too weak to carry the task at hand. She had informed me that Liam was the one who requested that the wedding be shifted plus an hour more, that I needed to get more rest for the long journey we had, a considerable excuse that Mrs Jennifer agreed with.
She also told me that Liam was the one that had requested her to cook me my favorite meal, it was actually about that meal that I got to ask her those questions, because I never believed it to be a coincidence, no. I would say all thanks to my lovely man for being observant towards me, knowing that I needed the rest after ripping me apart, and as well, a nice meal to get me energized and start functioning again.
I couldn't hide the smile on my face, walking up to this man before me, a man of my dream, even though I was alone, with no relation of mine here, with him paces away from me, I feel whole. This is more like I was getting married to a royal family, considering the way they rate their surname high, the Patricks.
I do know they're just weirdos who are wealthy and have a lot of rules and regulations abiding them, but those rules and regulations are exactly what is guiding them, those rules and regulations might bring hostility in the air, but keep them living together in peace, creating a high level of respect for the real family heirs which makes we the married in loyal and faithful towards them, getting to know our place. I'm not actually justifying their illicit acts, but by abiding by their set rules, you can only be pissed off at them without raising any kind of violence into the family.
I can say that I am actually risking a lot here, Maya probably did the same and as well Fred, even someone almost got married to Blake, probably ready to live in by the same set rules and regulations, but misfortune happened, a misfortune I still doesn't know anything about.
“ Do you take this woman as your wife, ready to live with her in sickness and in health just like our parents, until death do you guys apart?.....”
Phillips was the one playing the role of the priest, he's still single, not wanting to get married just like Mrs Jennifer said earlier, but being single gives him the opportunity to play the priests role. I would say that's an advantage actually, but Mrs Jennifer really want him to go get married to his own woman.
“ I do....”
Liam replied, eyes staring into mine, a confident smile on his face, really appreciative and happy for this moment we're in, showing that this moment means a lot to him just like they do to me, out hands knotted together with a rope, signalling our bond towards each other.
I was so happy that I can't express with words what I am feeling right now, trying to hold in all the feelings washing through me, taking a breath in and releasing them at a good volume.
After the oaths between us, we sealed the marriage with a kiss, kissing ourselves in front of them all, in front of my new family, as well as friends and foes. I don't care what the are feeling about us getting married, being together, but what I know is that I got to have the last laugh.
We were still in the alter when I saw Blake coming in, I never knew she wasn't present in here until now, she was carrying the swing board with her, moving in into my wedding area with the family most valuable treasure like Mrs Jennifer informed me.
Phillips went aside from his standing area right in front of us and the swing board was kept there to replace him. “ We congratulate our newly wed into the family and happy to accept her in to now live with us, but before then, here is the last step of all, the board....”
Mrs Jennifer said standing by the side of the board, I feel like there's more to this than I am thinking.
