Chapter 14
They arrived in N.C. early 2 mornings later. They didn't have much money, but they had each other and that's all that mattered. While driving and looking for Teresa's Aunt's house they came across a chapel that was open all night long.
"Teresa, how would you like to get married right now?" He asked her.
"Right now? I'm not even looking my best."
"You're beautiful no matter how you look. I say we should do it."
"Let's do it!" She said excitedly.
Teresa freshened up a bit before the ceremony began. The organ began to play and Teresa walked down the isle. Only one other couple was there and they served as the witnesses. They said their vows and exchanged their rings. For it being a small and cheap wedding, it was beautiful. They walked out feeling so great, like they could conquer the whole world.
"I love you." She told him as she drifted off to take a nap.
He kissed her forehead and the words didn't need to be said. She knew he loved her with his whole heart. They found a cheap hotel to spend their honeymoon at. What a honey they had! Teresa couldn't have had a better one. Sure they didn't have the most romantic spot, but that didn't matter. She was with Matt for the first time and that's how it would always be. They woke up the next morning very early so they could go to Aunt Maria's. They made it to her house by noon and were welcomed with open arms by Aunt Maria.
"Oh Teresa! You look so beautiful!" Her Aunt exclaimed.
"Thank you! Thank you so much for letting us live here." She said.
"No problem. It's nice to meet you, Matt."
"Same here," he said as he gave her a hug.
"Welcome to our family!" Aunt Maria said excitedly.
"Thank you so much." He said.
They settled in just fine. Aunt Maria was a big help to them. she had already found jobs for both of them so they could get on their feet.
"You are an angel." Teresa told her.
"No, I'm just a concerned family member."
"Have you spoken to mama?" She asked.
"Yes, and she's very worried about you. I told her though you were in good hands. I admire what you've done, Teresa, and I hope things really work out for you two."
Teresa smiled and looked out the window where Matt was playing football with some of the neighbors.
"He seems like he gets along with children good." Maria said observing him.
"He loves them." Teresa smiled to herself. She couldn't wait to have a family of her own.
"Do you want to have children, Teresa?"
"Oh yes! I can't wait to have my first child."
"God will bless you with many children." Maria told her from experience.
"How are Paco, Juanita, Ana Maria, and Jose doing?" She inquired.
"Oh great!" She smiled, "They all have children of their own and are doing fine."
"That's great to hear."
"Well, goodnight." Maria said before heading to bed.
"Night." Once Maria left Teresa thought that she should call Matt in.
"Matt, honey, come inside now."
"Aww how cute!" One little boy said sarcastically.
"Hey I don't mind spending time with my beautiful new wife." He told the kids.
"Yuck!!!!!!!" The kids yelled. "I'll see you guys later."
"Bye, Matt." A little girl who had a crush on him said.
He winked at her and went inside.
"Hello handsome!" She said as she jumped on him.
"Let's go to bed." He said as he kissed her neck. "Is that a problem?"
"Oh no. I have no complaints about going to bed with you." She kissed him on his lips, but her lips couldn't seem to stay only on his lips. She pulled his shirt off of him, but he stopped her from doing anything else.
"Something wrong?" She asked.
"We can't do this here, let's go in our room."
She took his hand and pulled him into their room. It's no guess what they did.
Back in Harmony.
Pilar went to work the next day, but she couldn't do anything but worry about her baby girl. Ethan found Pilar sitting with her head in her hands crying about Teresa in Julian's office.
"Pilar, is something wrong with Teresa?" He asked.
"She's gone!" She cried.
"Gone? What happened?"
"She went off with Matt. I know he's trouble. I hope they don't get married. He'll only ruin her life."
"Don't worry. I'll find her for you. I promise."
"Oh no, Ethan. It's not your fault she left so don't worry about finding her. Hopefully she'll come back soon. Besides I know where she is."
"You do?"
"Yes."
"Well where is she?"
"At my sister's house in N.C."
"I'll go and see if I can bring her back to Harmony." Ethan said.
"No, don't."
"Yes, I don't like seeing you like this, besides I worry about Teresa. She's a great girl and I'd hate for her to get mixed up with the wrong crowd. I'm going to get tickets for the next plane out there. I'll call you from there."
"Thank you, Ethan."
"No problem."
