Here's chapter 3! WHOOHOO.
-Disclaimer-
-Me : Ok, here's the deal.
-Gustafa: Let me say it!
-Me: NO!
-Gustafa: YES! SHE DOESN'T OWN HM OR ME OR MAIWEN 3
-Me: *sulking*
Chapter 3
Previously
I woke up because I heard someone knocking softly on my door. It was 6 AM. Who the HECK would knock at 6AM?
-Wait a minute! I'm coming! I yelled.
So I dressed up quickly, putting on my favorite pair of jeans and a tank top, pulling my long and wavy brown hair into a ponytail and opened the door. It was Gustafa.
Chapter 3
Maïwen's POV
Gustafa. The only face I probably wouldn't expect to see right now. But it was him and he was… different. Not the cheerful person I knew. He had a serious face on.
-Good morning, Maïwen.
-Er, good morning? I answered.
-We need to talk about what happened yesterday.
-Hum, ok?
He was walking off by then and told me to follow him. I got my keys, locked my door quickly and ran after him. He brought me to the beautiful pond in the woods, and he stopped himself near the waterfall, where he had sung to me the song he had written for our "relationship". So I patiently waited for him to talk. I was staring at his back when he spun around and looked at me. And that's when he took off his glasses. I was surprised. And I was lost in his beautiful green eyes (A.N: I decided they were green, since his outfit is mostly green and it's also my favorite colour.) He took a step towards me and took my hand gently, like he was scared to break it. Then he started talking.
-Maïwen, my beautiful Maïwen. I've been your friend for the last year, and I must say you are the best person I've ever met. And I've always wanted to be more than a friend to you. And when you told me you were leaving, I couldn't help but tell you how I felt. I know this might be strange but…
I was on shock. He wanted to be MORE than friends with ME? I got to say, I was happy. What was I thinking? I was supposed to leave soon, and leave him behind? How could I? And when he let go of my hand to reach something behind him, I felt… Cold without his touch. Then he put himself on a knee. I felt utterly confused. And then, he pulled out a Blue Feather.
- Maïwen, I want to be with you forever, and live with you until I die. Will you marry me?
I just stood there, and I was frozen. He wanted to spend a lifetime with me? Really? And I wanted to live with him too. I could see in his emerald clear eyes fear of being rejected. Then I decided to react.
-Gustafa, you have no idea how much I would love to be your wife.
There we go. He dropped the Feather, got up and kissed me with so much passion that I was only aware of him. I put my arms around him and he put his arms around my waist before lifting me up. It had to be the best kiss ever. I felt as if my heart was beating like a maniac and my blood was pulsing. I felt all these butterflies in my stomach and I was lost in a beautiful world, and I wished it would last forever.
But it couldn't of course. We broke the kiss, taking our breath. He put his forehead on mine and he smilled.
-I love you so much.
-And I love you too, Gustafa.
And so I picked up the Blue Feather and Gustafa stopped me.
-Wait. I wrote a song for you.
And he sat down, and started playing the song he had written for me through the year. I felt tears pooling in my eyes. It was so beautiful! And I was even more in love with him. When the song was over, I pulled him in a small kiss, and we left, hand in hand towards my farm. He stayed with me on the farm and helped me with my animals and crops, saying that he better learn how to do it now. I was happy to know he would help me with the farm.
After we finished with the farm work, we went inside my house and we started talking about our wedding.
-Where would you like to wed? he asked me
-Hum, I don't know? On the Beach or something?
-Hum, that's a great idea! And who are we inviting? God, it was hard to plan a wedding.
-Well, how about the whole village? They're all my friends and well, the Beach is big enough for everyone.
-Yeah, and well, they're won't be any fights.
I laughed at that. So it was now 9PM and we were both tired. We decided to meet up at 8AM the next morning to tell everyone about our engagement.
There we go. Everyone knew, and they all looked happy for us. We even had a few "we knew it!" comments, and it was kind of funny. So me and Gustafa parted, after a short kiss and I went back to the farm. Then I heard a scream.
-MAïWEN!
It was none other than my best friend, Muffy. She was running in her high heels, usual red dress and her long blond hair was flying behind her.
-Hey, Muffy!
-OH MY GAWD YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED! AND TO GUSTAFA, TOO! I TOLD YOU !
I looked at her until she was finished her little happy moment. She was the only one who knew I had a thing for Gustafa.
-Now, you're going to let me help you pick out your dress and everything! She exclaimed.
-Woah, Muffy! I already know what I'm going to wear! Me and Gustafa planned everything yesterday!
-WHAT?! WITHOUT ME? she shrieked.
-WAIT! I shouted.
She looked at me, shocked, I never shouted before.
-I still need your ADVICE on things. Like, what I should do with my hair, how to decorate and stuff like that!
-Good. Because I would have ripped off your head, she said.
-Good. So now, I want to show you my dress. And then, help me set up a tent and chairs for my wedding that's going to happen… Tomorrow.
-TOMORROW?! HOLY COW MAïWEN! WE BETTER GET MOVING!
So I let her drag me here and there. When we got to the beach, there was people already there waiting for me. When I asked why they were there, they said they wanted to help me set up the place. So we did. A chair for everyone, a little aisle with coral and white flowers, and well, everything was simple, in fact. And when we were all done, I told Muffy to come over at my place.
I showed her my dress. She gasped.
-Oh Maïwen, it is so gorgeous on you!
-Thank you.
I had chosen a simply white gown. I had two little straps that relied together in the back of my neck, and there was an elastic right at the bottom of my breast, and the dress fell down like a roman dress. And there was these kind of shells around my neck. (A.N: Go and check on my profile, there's a link to a picture of the dress, and well, other pictures for the wedding :D) After Muffy was done gawking at my dress, she left and told me to be up at 7AM so she can fix up my hair. So I went to bed, and thanked the Goddess for the happiness she brought me.
Wahoo! I'm done chapter 3. I wish I could do chapter 4, but I gotta go clean up my apartment T_T. ANYHOW, I'll try and update tomorrow.
And as I said during the story, I put links to pictures of the wedding. Even though Muffy's dress will only be described in the next chapter.
Hope you enjoyed!
Cheers!
