This is set on the wedding day as I couldn't think of anything interesting to happen and I am getting towards the end of this story and thinking what to write. There will be one final chapter after this one
Molly was sat in the kitchen of the James family home. It was her wedding day and she was as nervous as anything. She felt more nervous than she did going to face badral In Afghanistan. The hairdresser had already been and gone and it was only 10 o'clock. Molly had her hair put in to a low slung bun slightly off centre and the flower that she had chosen on the side.
"Thank you" she had gasped when she saw herself. As the hairdresser had also put some curls around her face to shape it.
She barely had time to catch her breath when the florist arrived with all the flowers for the bridal party and Charles mum.
Molly's bouquet was made up of lilies roses carnations and Gypsophila. It also had little green sparkles in and the white roses had a green glittery rim added to them.
The morning had been a rush of people coming and going and molly was overwhelmed and nervous.
"You all right molls" Belinda said taking hold of molly's hand and giving it a squeeze

Molly climbed in next to her dad and wrapped the faux fur blanket around her as it was quite cold and looked like it was going to snow.
When they arrived at the assembly rooms molly's mum went in and sat down next to Nan.
The bridesmaids walked down the aisle first and then molly took her dads arm and they began took what felt like ages for them to reach the top where Charles was waiting for her in his army smarts smiling.
"hi" Charles whispered to molly
"hello" was the response
The service when like a blur until it came for them to say their vows. Charles had planned for them write their own vows but life at war can be hectic. So they had decided on the Traditional vows
"I molly take you Charles to be my lawful wedded husband, to ave and to old from this day and everyday now and for ever"
I Charles take you molly to be my lawful wedded wife, to have and to hold from this day and everyday now and forever"
The registrar pronounced them husband and wife and Charles swooped molly in to the memorable sailor kiss made famous in time square on V.J day. Then they signed the registrar and walked back down the aisle as husband and wife
