I woke up and stretched my arms above my head, remembering everything that had happened yesterday: I was now a married woman and I would never have to leave Ian again. I twirled my thin, gold ring round and round my finger, thinking how much I was pleased to be called Ian's wife. We knew it was silly because Ian and I would always be together forever, but he had wanted to make it official. I can't blame him; it was one of the best times of my life. I grinned and started to giggle, thinking about everything and everyone. Ian stirred and his eyes fluttered open so he was staring me in the eye. I giggled again and a grin broke out on his face.
"Good morning Ian."
"Morning Mrs." He chuckled and kissed me full on the lips. "Do you think that Jeb will let us have today off? I mean, cause you know..."
"Hopefully." I started to smile, but in no time at all it was replaced with a frown. "Oh no! We forgot to open everyone presents."
"Dun-dun-duuuun. Aw well, we can open them with everyone later. They will understand." He beamed and my cheeks became red. He still saw the frown that I had tried to cover up. "Okay, five minutes that I get you all to myself, no distractions. And then we will get up. Deal?"
"Deal." He trailed kisses up and down my neck while I squealed with laughter.
Five minutes later (more or less) we got up; I shrugged on a large t-shirt and a pair of shorts. I held my arm out in front of my body, admiring my left hand. It looked beautiful with a ring on, it symbolised our love. My hand suddenly felt very heavy, like I was holding the weight of our whole future on my finger. Ian grabbed my wrists, pulling me closer into his body and bringing my hands up to his lips. He kissed all of my fingers, leaving my ring finger to last. He kissed that with more force, but he soon moved away and pressed his lips to mine.
"I love you Mrs O'Shea and no one can ever change that." I loved hearing those words Mrs O'Shea, it made me grin as he pressed his lips to mine.
Soon, I resurfaced and we were both panting for breath. "I love you too Ian." I grabbed his hand and burst through the door and down the halls. Suddenly my legs were pulled out from underneath me. I screamed but Ian caught me before I could hit the floor so that he was cradling me in his arms. He clamped a hand on my mouth, cutting off my blood-curling scream. "Ssshh Wanda, its fine. I'm so sorry." My whole body was trembling and Ian looked really worried, but I was shaking because a fit of giggles were threatening to escape my mouth. I bit down on my lip, trying to hold in the sniggers but they soon found a way out.
"I'm fine Ian. You just shocked me." I said between giggles. He squeezed me closer to his body and he looked relieved. He lent down and kissed me with a smile on his face but his eyes were serious.
"I would never let anything happen to you Wanda. Ever. I love you." He whispered in my ear.
"I love you too Ian. I know you wouldn't. You couldn't."He nodded solemnly. I closed my eyes as he carried me off towards the kitchen.
As we turned round the corner, a million voices at once shouted out, but one rang out louder than everyone else's. Mel's. "Hi guys. How are you? What did you think of yesterday? Wanda?!" I started gasping for air, I was to crowded. I could feel someone's face to close to mine, and it wasn't Ian's.
"She's fine! Give her some space people!" Ian barked. He took me off towards a table and set me down in one of the chairs. He took the one next to me. He took a deep breath, calming down a little bit. "Thanks for everything guys. Yesterday was...great."
"Yeah, it was incredible." I said, grinning at Ian. I blushed slightly and Mel winked at me. "Um..." I turned my head away and buried it deep into Ian's chest. He rubbed small circles in my back and pressed his face into my curls. I unfolded myself from him and got up to take my place in line. He grabbed my wrist, pulling me back into him and sat me back down next to Candy and Lily. Candy still seemed to have a problem with me but she did seem to be getting better.
I sighed at Ian but didn't resist: what was the point? He took my place, getting two trays sky high with food. Ian plopped a tray n front of me and threw an orange bag on top of it, I gasped: it was cheetos.
"Yum!" I still had an odd craving for cheetos. I grinned and ripped open the packaging, stuffing a handful of them in my mouth. They were delicious. Jeb walked in the room, looking pleased.
"Hi Ian, Wanda. I hoped I'd catch you here, I have some good news. I'll let you guys have today off." I grinned and Ian started shovelling down his bacon and toast. I nibbled at my scrambled eggs, I was too happy to eat anything. A whole day with Ian! I grinned to myself and that only made him eat quicker. I giggled to myself and pushed my tray towards Ian.
"Eat." Ian ordered me. I sighed and pushed it towards him again. "Wanda..."
"No Ian, I'm not hungry. I just want to go to bed..." I said and a slight blush spread across my cheeks. Ian beamed and threw down his plate.
"Way to go Ian!" Brandt bellowed from the other side of the room and my cheeks blushed a darker shade of red, but I was giggling. Jared chuckled and Ian threw him a mock punch. Jamie and Sunny looked uncomfortable, and Trudy found us hilarious.
I grabbed our trays and threw them in the sink before taking Ian's hand and leading him out of the room.
"Good going bro!" Kyle bellowed at Ian from the other room, my cheeks blushed furiously.
"Wait here." Ian pecked me on the nose and ran off back into the kitchen. He was gone about two minutes and as soon as he came back, he swept me up in his arms and charged down the halls. I could hear Kyle swearing at us and a small high pitched voice calming him down.
"Calm down Kyle. Leave it." It was Sunny. I giggled and Ian stopped, putting me down and pulling me into him.
"I love you baby." He pushed me up against the cave wall, grabbing my face in his hands and kissing my lips. I wrapped my legs around his waist and my arms around his neck. "Shall we move this someplace else?" I nodded and tucked my face into his chest while he carried me back to our room.
We plopped down on our mattress; I circled his waist with my legs while he kissed my neck. His hands grabbed fistfuls of my hair and his kissing was eager.
