Chapter 1:
The music blared from the small stereo as the light flickered from the candles. The song was beautiful & romantic in a rock kind of way. As they held each other close, this moment was what they each had wanted for a long time.
Wyatt Fuller looked into the beautiful eyes of his new wife Hope & found himself feeling like the luckiest man alive.
He had finally done it. He had won over the girl of his dreams and could now proudly call her his wife. That was all he had wanted ever since that fateful day in Big Bear.
Now as he slowly started to help her slip out of her wedding dress, Wyatt saw Hope smile, something he loved seeing her do. Her face just became more beautiful when she did that. It also made his heart melt.
"You've been waiting for this, haven't you?" asked Hope as she felt the straps come off & her dress begin to slide off. "I have. More then anything," said Wyatt as he stepped back & watched the dress fall off.
As he looked at her in all of her naked glory, Wyatt was ready to take Hope right there & then, but he swore to himself that their wedding night would be special so he gently took her to the king-size bed covered in pink and white rose petals.
"You are so beautiful. I love you so much," he said breathlessly. "I love you too," she said as she wrapped her arms around his neck and began to surrender herself to his sweet yet passionate kiss.
As Wyatt & Hope fell onto the bed & began to make love, everything around them faded. It was just the two of them. Nothing else mattered.
Still, they knew that they had fought hard to get to this point of happiness.
Deep in their hearts, Wyatt & Hope knew that it had all been worth it.
Very much worth it.
