Case Attraction
It was perfection in all forms.
I stare back into my eyes, letting them roam down the expanse of the mirror. My dress is the classic white- with sleeves that fit perfect and a 'Sweetheart neckline' as Ella put it. There are small jewels wrapping around my body from the waist up, with a beautiful lace pattern of roses from the waist down. My feet are clad in simple white flats with a thin layer of lace over silk. I realized while I was trying on shoes, heels are EVIL. What's the point in them? They pinch your toes, hurt your ankles, and give you one hell of a challenge while running. So, I ditched them. But, everything was still perfect. No matter what happened- even if it started raining to the possibility of the world ending, I would be marrying Fang. My Fang.
And that's what made it perfect.
Along with the small baby bump I was supporting under my attire.
I close my eyes and just allow my hand to rub my tummy. I smile and think of my dream, so long ago. My daughters long black hair and chocolate colored eyes and my sons blonde shaggy hair with black orbs. Their raven and hawk wings.
"Max, it's time." My mom says from the door. I turn around and give my widest smile I've ever given- so wide, it hurts my face. She rushes over and hugs me tightly, whispering assurances I don't hear.
"I love him so much," I sniffle.
"Then go prove it, baby." She kisses my cheek, and leads me out. She wraps her arm around mine as we both walk down the aisle. I keep my eyes on the ground so I don't do something stupid and run the rest of the way at the sight of Fang. "Head up," mom says quietly.
I look up.
Fang stands there, all in black and his hands behind his back. He has that same adoring smile he always wears when we're together. "Screw it!" I say loudly and take off towards him. I jump and throw my arms around his neck, and kiss his as he hold me up. There are loud whistles and cheers in the background, but I can only focus on Fang and his lips. When we pull away, three words slip from our mouths at the same time.
"I love you."
