"I do cherish you for the rest of my life, you don't have to think twice, I will love you still from the depths of my soul, its beyond my control, I've waited so long to say this to you, if you're asking do I love you this much...I do"...

-I do Cherish you- 98 degrees

CHAPTER 21-"I DO CHERISH YOU…"

Loren: (smiling) "Yes. Eddie. Yes times infinity. I will marry you….."

Eddie smiled back, stood up and slipped the ring on her finger, wrapped his arms around her as they fell into a hot and heavy passionate kiss.

Eddie: (whispering,as they gently pulled away,locked in a lingering embrace), "I love you Lo and I promise, I'll never leave you.."

LATER THAT WEEK, Loren, Eddie and the Bridal Entourage fly off to the island of TAHITI..ARRIVING LATE AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING….

Where everyone is staying till the night before Wedding…

Melissa set her bags and suitcase down as she entered their hotel room, followed by Nora,Adriana, Max,Phil and Penelope, Ian,Eddie and Loren.

Melissa: "Oh my gosh Lo…this hotel and the place is just breathtaking!"

Loren: "so what do you all want to do first?"

Melissa: "Let's go walk around and explore this hotel and check out the shopping too!"

So for the rest of the day into the evening, everyone went downstairs to do some exploring around the hotel. Max and Nora checked out the spa to get the full body massages, Ian and Melissa chilled to the pool while Phil,Adriana and Penelope went window shopping, leaving Loren and Eddie walking hand in hand down the beach.

They stopped and stared out into the ocean as she whispered in his ear.

Loren: "you know by this time tomorrow, you will officially I'll be officially be your wife"

He wrapped his arms around her waist to face him,

Eddie: "mmm..counting every second,every minute,every hour till tomorrow night, Mrs. Duran.."

He started caressing her with spine tingling kisses up and down her neckline towards her collar bone.

Loren: (teasing),"tomorrow night? Is that all you can think about right now? Way to kill the romantic here.."

Eddie: "Well. In my defense, I had to wait 7 days and lonely nights without you and you wearing that hot",(in between kisses),"sexy sundress,woman, you're going to kill me before I get to say I do."

Loren: "well then. That's 7 days to make it up to you, we've got a private bungalow hut reserved, secluded pool, skimpy bikini.."

She leaned in close, their lips lingering for a kiss and that's when Loren ran out of his arms towards the hotel, laughing.

Loren: "CATCH ME IF YOU CAN BABY! I LOVE YOU!"

Eddie let out a painful groan, trying to run after her, as he began to walk to the hotel in a slow motion.

Later that evening, everyone got back together at the hotel room to get ready for dinner downstairs and after wards, went to sleep early for the BIG DAY tomorrow.

THE FOLLOWING SATURDAY AFTERNOON,…AT THE BEACH…

Loren with Max walking down the aisle…

PASTOR: "the Bride and the Groom has written their own vows…"

Loren: (teary-eyed,nervous but happy) "Eddie, you walked out of my dreams and into my life, who would've known a few sweet poetic words that started on twitter, led me to meeting you on the night I won your song writing contest. I always felt that music connected us, you healed me through tough times growing up and filled up the missing part of me, you have become my rock and roll idol, turned best friend and today my husband, I LOVE YOU EDDIE with all my heart and soul, till death do us part. I praise and thank God for sending you to me, a man with such a big heart, who is kind,generous,loving and caring, full of humility. You are the best version of me in every amazing way. It is because of you I am the woman I am today, you have made me so happy and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you. I love you..now and until forever…"

Eddie:( teary-eyed,happy) "Loren, from the moment I read your tweets, I knew there was something special about you..And then you won my song writing contest, you changed my life and my world unexpectedly but in perfect timing. Who would have thought that the missing part of my song writing is YOU. You are my inspiration and you always bring out the BEST in me, I love the way the you love me, just as me, Eddie, even though I have my moments of being a brat, I LOVE YOU with my heart and soul, and I promise to never ever leave you side. Through the good time and the bad, we'll fight through it together. Loren, to me, you are the most beautiful, most talented, funny and smart. And because of you, I become a better man everyday. I thank and praise God for sending such a wonderful blessing in my life and I vow to be with you for the of my life,loving you from now until the day we'll be racing wheelchairs,in a fancy nursing home, even if it's a Eskimo kiss you, I'm yours till death to us part.."

Loren : "with the ring, I thee wed.."

Eddie: "with this ring, I thee wed…"

Pastor: "By the powers vested in me, I now pronounce you man and a wife, you may kiss your bride…..CONGRATULATIONS MR AND MRS EDUARDO DURAN!"

And as they walk down the aisle as husband and wife, raising up their hand in hand, followed by with Melissa and Ian, Adriana and Phil. Max and Nora carrying baby Penelope.
