The Newlyweds- Matt and Sarah: written by JLYSPIO

Part One

"I can't believe that I am married now," thought Matt as he laid on the bed in the room he and Robbie shared.

Matt wished his wife, Sarah, was lying there beside him right now. He now had a wife. He could hardly fathom the thought. Each time he thought of it, chills ran down his spine. When Sarah had slid the ring on his finger, he realized how permanent this decision would be. In his mind, he could see the two of them repeating their vows as the two stood there in front of the judge.

Reaching into his jacket pocket that was hanging on a desk chair, he pulled out a small black box. In it was a simple gold band- his wedding ring. He smiled as he slowly slid it on his ring finger. The ring was simple, but it meant the world to him. Realizing someone may find it if he left it in his drawer, he decided he better come up with a place to hide it. He slowly removed the ring and replaced it back in its hiding spot.

He quietly left the room and headed downstairs to the kitchen phone. He wanted to talk to his wife, so a phone call would have to do. He picked it up and dialed the numbers to Sarah's cell phone- numbers he had memorized the first night he had gotten them.

"Hello," Sarah whispered.

"Hey. I just thought I would call you since I miss you. I love you," Matt whispered.

"I love you too. I miss you so much already. I can't wait to see you again. Can we meet for lunch tomorrow?" asked Sarah.

"Yeah, I have to work. So, it'll be around 11:30 if it's alright with you, "Matt answered.

"That's fine with me. I have to work too, so it works out with me," Sarah answered. "Out of curiosity, does Ruthie have school tomorrow?"

Matt, looked the calendar and noticed that it said that Ruthie didn't have school the next day. "For some reason, she doesn't. Why are you asking?"

"I'm going to fulfill my promise to Ruthie. I thought she mentioned at dinner tonight she didn't have school since her class was going on a field trip. Since I know where the stables are, I'll pick you and Ruthie up around nine. She can use my cell and call your mom and get someone to pick her up at the promenade around noon," Sarah responded. As she said this, her cell phone chirped. "I've gotta go. My cell phone battery is dying. I love you," Sarah whispered.

"I love you too" Matt whispered and then hung up the phone.

As Matt walked up the stairs he realized that he now had a solution to his ring problem. He would take the ring box and leave it in his locker. No one but him knew the combination, so there was no better place. It would get it out of this house- away from his snooping parents and siblings.

Matt realized something else as he climbed into bed. He didn't have a picture of his bride. He wanted one of her alone and one of the two of them together. Closing his eyes, he pictured the love of his life- his wife, Sarah. He could not believe that the night before was the first time he noticed her- his wife. He could hardly fathom the thought. In his mind, he could see the two of them repeating their vows as the two stood there in front of the judge. Each time he thought of the vows, chills ran down his spine.

As Matt drifted off to sleep, he realized that the thing that had been missing from his relationship with Heather, Shana and Cheryl was there. He had finally found someone who completed him. She was the answer to the question that he had had for a long time and it was the greatest answer he could have ever received.
