Winnie Tuck sighed. It had been two weeks since the wedding, and she felt rather bored. Life in Ireland was very slow paced. Right now she was sitting on the porch of Mae and Angus' house. Winnie and Jessie were going to Paris in three days, and they looked forward to it. Miles had left the day before.
Winnie smiled when she thought of the wedding, which had taken place in a small chapel near Dublin.
Flashback
Winnie drew in her breath, trembling. Her hands were shaking, but she was smiling nonetheless as she looked at her reflection in the full-length mirror in front of her. She was in a small room in the chapel, getting ready. Mae fussed over a wrinkle in the train of her dress.
"You look beautiful, Winnie. Jesse won't be able to take his eyes off of you."
Mae's eyes were shining with tears, but they were happy tears. Winnie loved her dress. It was cream colored, with a scooped neck and lace on the edge of the neckline, and white embroidery all over the bodice. Long, flowing sleeves with matching embroidery and lace hid her shaking arms. A three-foot train rustled delicately behind her. The dress had been Winnie's mother's. She had written to her aunt, asking her to send it over, and her aunt had obliged. Winnie's hair was also magnificent. Pulled softly back from her face, several strands escaped and framed it, set into perfect curls. The back was a stunning updo, with long curls hanging down and grazing her shoulders. White lilies were entwined through her hair.
Soon it was time. Winnie went to the doors of the chapel, and stepped through them, holding a bouquet of white lilies. Mae walked behind her, dressed in blue, and holding up the train. The chapel was quaint, with some white ribbon along the pews, and bouquets of lilies here and there. Jesse looked very handsome in his dress clothes. Winnie smiled at him as he took her hand and they faced the priest. Mae, Angus, Miles, and few others watched the ceremony. When it was over, Winnie and Jesse kissed, as everyone in the vicinity clapped. Flashback End
Now Winnie had sealed her fate, marrying Jesse. She had drunk the water, and looked forward to facing eternity with Jesse Tuck, the boy who changed her life forever. Literally.
