RPOV- 1 year later
'OMG! I'M GETTING MARRIED TODAY. I CAN'T DO THIS. ROSE, YOU HAVE TO DO THIS FOR ADRIAN. YOU GUYS LOVE EACH OTHER. BUT I'M TO YOUNG TO BE GETTING MARRIED. LET ALONE HAVING A BABY!' I was fight thinking to myself. Today was my wedding day. Both me and Adrian had decided that we will want a spring wedding. I love Adrian more than I loved anything. It's been about a year since Adrian proposed to me. I'm just pyshcing myself out because I was only 19. Plus what only some people know is that me and Adrian are expecting our first child. I was only one month preggers.
Rose you better be getting up, because we are coming in. It's time to get up. Lissa thought through the bond that we had.
I got out of bed and I slipped on my black silk robe that Adrian gave me for my 19th birthday. As I was starting to make our bed, Lissa came into the apartment. Adrian was staying with Eddie that night because his roommate was out of the country with his Moroi.
"Rose?" Lissa called to me. Trying to find where I was.
"In the bedroom Liss." I called back out to her.
I heard say something like, 'This way girls.'
I just finished putting the pillows on the neatly made bed when Lissa came through the double doors.
"YOU GETTING MARRIED!" she squealed. Behind her was Mia, one of my bridesmaids, Carol, another guardian, Sarah, a close Moroi friend, Ginger, another guardian and Svletta, my closest guardian friend here, she was also Christian's guardian.
They were all caring a dress bag that held their bridesmaid dresses. Adrian told me to pick the color scheme because he didn't really mind. I picked green because of his eyes. I knew that it would make them look really good.
"Have you seen him today?" I asked Lissa.
"Yeah they brought him into our suite this morning at like 5 am. We brought him to our bed, and he fell asleep. Eddie said he was so nervous and excited about the wedding that last night he hardly got any sleep. So Eddie said that he put some sleeping pills into his water last night. So he was passed out cold. Don't worry though, he will be ready to say I do." She told me reassuringly.
"Is everything set up?" I asked her nervously.
"I went down there this morning," Mia told me, "It's a beautiful day to be getting married outside. They were setting it all up outside. There is no chance of rain today. Not if I have anything to do with it."
I forgot that Mia specialized in water. Sarah specialized in Earth, but was also very strong in wind, so I knew that I was set.
"Alright then. I guess it's time to get you guys ready for a wedding."
I wouldn't be dolled up till a few hours till the wedding. We still had to get all the bridesmaids ready, plus the flower girls. Lissa already had her hair done, and it looked amazing. I can't even explain it, it looked that good. I started to straighten Svletta's hair. She could never do her hair. I was going to straighten it and then Lissa would work it into a stylish bun. While I was straightening Svletta'a hair, Lissa was working on Ginger's make-up. The guardians that were my bridesmaids were the ones that would need their hair and make-up done. Since we were guardians, we didn't have a lot of time to learn all of that stuff. When I was finished with Svletta, I went and curled Carol's hair.
By then, the flower girls arrived with their mothers, and their mothers where going to do their hair, after Lissa told them how to style it. I had two flower girls. The first was Arianna, my father's youngest child. I meet her the first time she came to court a month after I arrived. My father asked me if I could watch her when she wasn't in school, because it has become too dangerous for her to be there. His other kids were at the Royal Court too, but they didn't stay with me. The second flower girl was Anya. She was related to Adrian in some way, and he absolutely adored her, and I loved her when I first met her. Anya's mother got Arianna ready too because of the fact that her mother died a few months ago.
Both my flower girls were beautiful. Arianna had light brown curly hair, and she had the same eyes as me. She looked a lot like me when I was younger except that fact that we had different hair color. Anya though had pin straight blond hair, and light green eyes. Her hair was pulled up into a half ponytail, and half of it was done.
After 2 hours of work, we finally had all the bridesmaids looking good. Now it was time to get my ready.
Lissa straightened my long hair, and put it up into a hairdo that I would never have been able to pull off. She put light make-up on, but it looked really good on me. I was starting to really look like a bride. The whole time that she was dolling me up, I was thinking about Adrian. He didn't really have to get ready. All he had to do was shower, comb his hair, and get into his tux.
"Rose." Lissa said, snapping me out of my thoughts.
"Yeah Liss."
"Your mom's here and you're ready to get the dress on. We only have an hour left. My mom came in with my dress. She got the dress off the hanger and helped me get into it. Once the dress was zipped up, the bridesmaid all gasped. I turned around to look in the full mirror that was in my room. I looked in and I almost fainted. I looked so beautiful. My mom started to cry.
"Mom, don't cry. Please."
"Sorry sweetie, it's just that you look so beautiful."
Then there was a knock on the door. Lissa went to go answered it. She stuck her head and started to whisper to the person on the other side of the door. She then opened the door to let the person into the room. Eddie came into the room. My father was unable to attend the wedding. He was being watched, and he was afraid that if he came here, then he would give up the location of one of his children, and he wanted to make sure that she was safe. Since he couldn't come, I asked Eddie to give me away. He was Adrian's best man, so he agreed, saying he would be honored.
"Guardian Hathaway, they say it's time for you to head down to the ceremony. It will be starting soon."
"Okay, here Rose," she said, giving me a box. "Here is something blue. They were your grandmothers. You father wanted me to give them to you." When I opened up the box, there was a hair clip, with a big blue-green rose on it. Lissa took it from my hands and put it in my hair.
My mother left, and Lissa check me over.
"Let's see, the dress is new, the clip is blue, your necklace is old, and shit, we forgot borrowed!"
"No problem Lissa, I brought this just in case." Said Sarah, as she handed me a garter. "I want that back too!" she told me.
Eddie said something about being right back. I forgot that he was even there. In five minutes he returned with the two ring bearers. They were Sarah's twins who were only 3. They looked so adorable in their little tuxes.
"Ed?"
"Yeah Rose?"
"How's Adrian?"
"He's very excited. He can't wait for the ceremony to start." Then his phone rang. "Eddie here, okay, okay, I will let her know." He said into the phone.
He turned to me "Adrian just left the building. They told us to wait 10 minutes before going downstairs."
"Okay, okay." I stood there, and the next 10 minutes seemed to never go by.
"Rose, it's time for us to get going." Lissa told me.
"Let's go." I said. We walked out of the suite, and we went to the elevator. We went outside where 5 golf carts where waiting for us, each one of them had a driver that was dressed in tuxes. Lissa went to sit next to the driver in the first car with me. I sat next to Eddie. We drove our way to the ceremony.
When we got there Lissa started to get us into formation. We planned the walk down the aisle, and after different plans, we finally came up with the order. Each bridesmaid was going to be escorted by the groomsmen except Lissa; she would be going down the aisle solo since Eddie was giving me away. Each bridesmaid and flower girl and ring bearer were going 5 seconds apart. First Carol was going to go, followed by Sarah, then Svletta, Ginger, Mia and then Lissa. The ring bearers and then the flower girls. I would wait till they got to the end of the aisle before Eddie would walk me down. I saw the flower girls leave and I didn't realize that I was holding my breath until Eddie said, "Breath Rose, you can do this, you love Adrian, you're having his baby." He offered me his arm, and I took it. Then I heard the music change to the music that I would walk down the aisle to.
We turned the corner, and I saw everyone rise, and face towards me. They all gasped when they saw me. I didn't pay attention to the decorations or all of the flowers. The sun felt great on my skin, but I was looking for Adrian. When he looked up from the alter, and he met my eyes, he broke out into a big grin.
Since the Moroi were sensitive to the sun, we had a translucent tent that covered us. Unfortunately for me the aisle was really long. I didn't think that we invited the many people, but every seat was full and there must have been 700-1000 people. I was staring at Adrian the whole walk down the aisle.
When I finally got down the aisle, Eddie took my hand and put it in Adrian's hand, and then walked to the best man's position.
'I love you' Adrian mouthed to me.
'I love you too.' I mouthed back.
I wasn't paying to attention to the priest at all. I was staring at Adrian the whole time. The priest about my vows, and when he was done saying the vows I said, "I do."
Then I heard Adrian say 'I Do."
"May I please have the rings please." The priest say. Both the ring bearers came up each with a pillow that held one ring. The priest took the ring and the ring bearers went back to their spot. The priest handed me Adrian's wedding band, and gave Adrian mine.
"Rose, repeat after me, with this ring,"
"With this ring,"
"I do wed."
"I do wed." I vowed sliding the ring on Adrian's left hand.
"Adrian, repeat after me, with this ring,"
"With this ring,"
"I do wed."
"I do wed." He vowed sliding the ring onto my finger.
"Congratulations. I now pronounce you man and wife. You may no kiss the bride." Adrian leaned into me and we shared a nice timed kissed. Just perfect for all the people who were watching us. When we ended our kissed and turned to everyone the priest said, "Ladies and Gentlemen, I now present you, Mr. and Mrs. Adrian Ivashkov.
Adrian led me down the aisle and into the building where the reception was being held. People formed a line to congratulate us. The reception went by so fast. I was introduced to many people, ate the food, danced and before I knew it Lissa was pulling me away to get changed.
She led me down a hallway and into a room where all my bridesmaids and my mother were. They helped me out of my dress, and I changed into a different dress that I would where on the plane. Lissa helped with getting my hair out of its up-do.
When we finally were done, I was lead to where Adrian was. We walked outside and to the golf carts that where waiting for us to take us to our plane. We ran to the golf cart, and in hand, being pelted by rice. The golf cart started to go as soon as we sat down. I had no idea where we were going for our honeymoon. Adrian was keeping that a secret.
Since Adrian was a Moroi, we had 3 guardians coming with us. They were sending one more than usual for some reason no one told me about. We finally got to the plane. Adrian and I boarded the plane first, and were followed by the guardians. Adrian sat me down in one of the huge comfy chairs and sat down next to me. He put his arm around me.
"I love you Mrs. Ivashkov." He whispered in my ear.
"I love you too, Mr. Ivashkov." I mumbled back to him. I was so tired from the whole wedding.
Right before the plane was about to take off, the other guardians came onto the plane, and went to some other room. I fell asleep right after we took off. Right into my lovers arms.
Hey guys. Sorry it took me so long to update. I was on the road going up north. So I didn't have much time to write this. I finished it, but didn't save it properly so I had to rewrite half of this. Hopefully I will have the next chapter up by tomorrow. Only if I get 10 reviews! PRESS THE GREEN BUTTON!!!
