St Christopher's Church
"Dearly beloved we are gathered here today to join Andrew and Lady Elisa in holy matrimony." Said the priest "Do you Andrew, take Lady Elisa, to be your lawfully wedded wife in Sickness and in health till death do you part."
"I do" Andrew said looking loving into Lady Elisa's eyes.
"Do you, Lady Elisa, take Andrew, to be your lawfully wedded Husband in Sickness and in health till death do you part." Said the priest again.
"I do" looking up to Andrew.
"What a lovely wedding" Mia whispered to Nicholas. Leaning her head on his shoulder. "I'm glad it's not me up there."
"So am I, because then I wouldn't be your boyfriend" Nicholas whispered in reply.
"I now announce you man and wife." The priest said as the organ began to play, and everyone stood up.
Everyone went out side for the bride to through her bouquet of flowers. All the women gathered together, and Lady Elisa through the flowers over her head into the crowed.
One of the woman caught it and the crowed cheered. That woman was Mia.
It was ten o'clock, the streets of Genovia where deserted, the lights from the lamps light up the whole street along with the shop windows. Nicholas and Mia, hand in hand, were the only ones in the street.
"Mia where going in here." Nicholas said pointing to the restaurant called Café
La' De Da'.
"Ohh ok." Mia said very surprised.
They walked into the restaurant and Nicholas sat down at the table in the window.
The restaurant was very clean with lots of candles and red walls.
"What would you like to order?" said the waitress.
"Two chefs specials and a bottle of Champaign, Please." Nicholas said very politely. "It was a lovely wedding, wasn't it? Exactly how I imagine our wedding."
"What do you mean?" Mia asked, looking at Nicolas with a peculiar facial expression.
Nicholas got down on his knee. "Mia I've loved you ever since I laid eyes on your beautiful face."
"Oh my god" Mia interrupted him, her hands on her mouth.
"Mia I love you and I will always love you. Will you marry me?" Nicholas said in his eyes you could see hope and of coarse Love.
"Definitely." Mia's eyes started to water as she jumped up and hugged Nicholas. Happiness running through her.
Mia knew she loved Nicholas and she knew Nicholas loved her but she never in her, never ending Hopes and Dreams imagined she would be engaged to Nicholas this soon. But she was ready.
They stopped hugging and Nicholas placed a ring on her finger. Mia lifted her hand and admired her ring.
"It's lovely, oh Nicholas, I'm so Happy." Mia said hugging him again. They both moved their heads together and kissed. Usually they hesitated but today Nicholas had showed how much he loved Mia.
"I wonder what my grandmother is going to say" Mia said Her lip only an inch away from Nicholas's.
"She'll get used to it, She'll have to." Nicholas said Giving Mia another little kiss before sitting back in his seat ready to be served.
"I can't Believe were engaged." Mia said to Nicholas.
"Nor can I" Nicholas said as the waitress placed their meals in front of them and poured their Champaign.
"A toast" Nicholas said picking up his glass "To us as a couple" They put their glasses together.
"I caught the bouquet today I didn't imagine I would be getting engaged so quickly"
"I know, I was waiting for the perfect moment."
All of a sudden a flash of light hit their eyes.
"I can't believe it. I set the paparazzi up on the other side of town so we could have the night to our selves." Nicholas said disappointed his plan didn't work. "Put your hand in your pocket."
Mia realized why he had said that, her ring. Neither of them wanted the press on to their engagement. She very slowly put her hand in her pocket to lower the chance of distraction.
"Lets go out the back and call Joe" Mia said very quietly.
They got up from the table and headed for the kitchen to use the phone. Nicholas put some money on the counter on there way out. The crowed paparazzi was slowly growing. They got into the kitchen and used the Phone, which was right next to the door.
"Joe, are you there." Mia said into the phone.
There was no answer to the phone.
"We'll have to run. Joe wasn't there. The palace is only a little way from here." Mia said heading for the back door.
They got out the back door there was no Paparazzi. Just a dark street, with some bins.
"Lets run before anyone sees us." Mia said starting to run down the street.
Once they got to the end of the street there was a couple of people with cameras.
"Hay Queen Mia. Give us a kiss." Said one of the men.
"Mia run" Nicholas yelled. The two of them ran in the opposite direction to the paparazzi.
They ran until they got to the Palace gate.
"Hay anyone there its me Princess… I mean Queen Mia and Nicholas." Mia said through the gate.
"Yes mam" said the guard. He opened the gate just enough for Mia and Nicholas to get through then closed it.
They continued to run towards the lake Giggling until Mia tripped over.
"Are you all right Mia" Nicholas said Kissing her on the cheek. She started to giggle. With that Nicholas came and picked Mia up and carried her to the tree by the lake.
"You know this is where we first had a problem with the Paparazzi." Nicholas said.
"I am so sorry about that day. I remember blaming the paparazzi, on you." Mia said apologetically. They were both lying under the tree they had six months before. Mia rolled over and kissed Nicholas.
Meanwhile at the castle.
"Joe have you heard from Mia it's past 12pm?" Clarice asked her husband.
"I'm sorry I haven't, Clarice my dear." Joe said. "She'll be ok she's a big Girl"
