Wedding part 2
Lydia POV
I smiled to herself as i put on the final touches to my wedding dress. Everything was perfect even if it was in Derek's loft despite all that I'm about to marry the love of my life. Today i become Mrs. Hale and officially start my life with the man of my I was finally his and he was finally mine I couldn't be happier.
No ones POV
Her mermaid styled dress hugged all of her curves perfectly, the lace bodice covering her porcelain skin in all the right places. She had never felt more like a princess in her life. Her long hair was curled and crimped over her shoulder, draping over her strapless dress. She truly did look enchanting.
Lydia POV
"Lydia, sweetie it's time." Allison said softly, peeking her head out from the bedroom door. She was dressed in a beautiful strapless purple gown with a bouquet of white orchids held in her hand and a smile on her face.I smiled at her maid of honor and nodded. Allison looked stunning. During the wedding planning, she had made a great maid of honor. She was patient and sincere and had saved Lydia on many occasions from having a breakdown. Cora, her bridesmaid, wasn't nearly as helpful. She was outgoing and boisterous and still hadn't quite grasped the importance of a wedding.I opened her door and took a step out into the hallway where Allison and Cora stood. I grinned when i saw Cora looking so out of place in her dress. "You look great." I said proudly. "Both of you do."Allison beamed with pride and Cora rolled her eyes jokingly. "Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's just get this show on the road. Last time I checked on the guys, Derek was wrestling Zach ."The three girls laughed and I took their hands in hers. "I love you guys." I said squeezed my hand comfortingly. "We love you too."
"Are you ready?" Chris Argent asked Me quietly as they stood behind Allison who was making her way down the aisle.I grinned widely. "Yeah, I think I am." I said happily, as she put her arm through Chris's. Originally her father had wanted to walk her down the aisle, but He couldn't make it so she thought Chris had treated her like a daughter so she though he would be a great replacement."You look stunning by the way." Chris whispered to her.I tugged him a little closer and took a deep breath. "Thank you." I said as they began the walk down the 's jaw dropped the minute he saw me. The sun was illuminating her strawberry blonde hair he loved so much and her skin was a shocking contrast. It make me feel so beautiful. I saw him blink a few times in amazement.
Zach POV
Derek suddenly leaned towards Me and chuckled. "Dude, your hearts beating really fast.""It should be a crime to be that beautiful." Zach mumbled, his eyes never leaving my future wife. I could feel the tears threatening to break through and i sniffled. "God, how am I so lucky?" I asked to no one in particular. Derek patted my shoulder and grinned. "It's all in the looks my friend." He said 's eyes never left mine as she walked down the aisle. When Lydia and Chris finally made it down the aisle, Chris took her hands and looked at her lovingly."I am so proud to call you my daughter, Lydia." He said with tears in his eyes, his hands shaking ever so slightly. "I love you.""I love you too." Lydia whispered, tears running down her face smiled at the bride and softly kissed her forehead before turning to look at Zach. "Don't you forget I love you too, young man." He joked, pulling Zach into a warm hug and then taking a seat next to an already crying Melissa McCall and Peter was just sitting there."Hi." I whispered to Lydia, taking her hands in his and rubbing his thumb over her soft skin."Hi." Lydia cried back, inwardly yelling at herself to stop crying. The ceremony had barely just begun and she was already a blubbering mess."You look beautiful." I said in complete wave of happy tears ran down Lydia's cheek. So much for looking like a princess on her wedding day. "Thank you." She whispered, looking into his amazing brown stared back passionately. He didn't know how long they had been staring at each other until the priest, who happened to be Deaton, coughed to get their Lydia and I looked up at him, slightly embarrassed when he began grinning like a mad man.
"Dearly beloved, we are gathered together here in the sight of God to join together this Man and this Woman in holy Matrimony; which is an honorable estate, instituted of God in Paradise, and into which holy estate these two persons present come now to be joined." Deaton said could swear he saw a tear in Deaton's eyes before he shook his head and laughed. " The bride and the groom have agreed to write their own vows and at this time they would like to share them. Lydia, would you like to start?" Deaton asked.
Lydia nodded and turned to look at her groom. ""I, Lydia Martin, take you, Zach Hale to be my one and only true love. An from this day forward I'm your an will be forever. When we were in fourth grade and I saw you. I couldn't help but want to get to know you, and when we got to know each other. I couldn't help but fall for you, and want you in my life. Even after you left for 11 years I still loved you. I love you even now, and always will. This is the beginning of our new life together, and for us let's hope we can start our new lives on a good note not on a bad. This is where we start our new family together us and the rest of our friends. You are my one and only true love, as I am yours. You are the breadth I breath. I am yours till the day we die. I'm so happy you return even if it took you 11 years to come back to me. An since you came back I feel normal this feels safe it not fake it's not a way to get popular or just a distraction it's real. So of our friends say you changed me there wrong you just set the true me free an I love you Zach in I trust you with everything my heart and my life."
Deaton nodded his approval. "Zach?"
Zach quickly wiped his tears away and kissed Lydia's hand.
"I, Zach Hale, take you, Lydia Martin, to be my companion, forever. With you by my side I will never be alone. Though the world sees a strong and independent woman, I've never known someone with such gentle grace and more pure heart. I've been lost you've always been there to bring me back, so on this day, at this moment, I pledge the rest of my life to you. You've always believed in me, and I believe in you. When you believe in someone it's not for a minute, or just for now, it's forever In fourth grade when I first met u I didn't think we would end up like this you have changed my life forever and I would do anything for you. You are my bestfriend and no matter what happens I want to be with you forever. Even after I left for 11 years your still the same girl I fell in love with an no force on this earth will make me leave your side, Lydia you are my home my anchor and my true love an I am yours and will be forever."
The entire room was quiet, the only sound coming from the soft sniffles from some of the parents and wedding party. "Do you, Lydia Martin take this man, Zach Hale as your husband, to love him and to honor him, to nurture, serve and support him, in times of joy and in times of difficulty? Do you promise with all your heart and soul to honor this vow till death do you part?" Deaton asked looked at Zach once more. He was right. They were soul mates. "I do. Of course I do." Lydia cried."Do you, Zach Hale take this woman, Lydia Martin as your wife, to love her and to honor her, to nurture, serve and support her, in times of joy and in times of difficulty? Do you promise with all your heart and soul to honor this vow till death do you part?"I nodded. "I do.""Then by the power vested in me by the state of California I now pronounce you man and wife. Zach ,you may kiss your bride." Deaton finally that Lydia practically jumped into my arm, her lips connected with his immediately. I wrapped his arms around his bride's waist and kissed her back with equal amounts of enthusiasm. I spun her around happily as everyone else clapped and cheered. When they broke apart, I rested his forehead on Lydia's and they both smiled.
"Ladies and Gentlemen please welcome Mr. and Mrs. Hale." Deaton said proudly. Later that night after the emotional speeches were done from Derek and Peter. Zach and Lydia dance to "Start of Time" by Gabrielle Aplin in each other's arms. Lydia rested her head on My shoulder and they swayed together to the soft melody. "I love you, Mrs. Hale." I whispered. He loved saying that. I loved being able to call Lydia my wife. Lydia looked up at me and grinned. She would never get tired of hearing that. "I love you too, Mr. Hale." I leaned down and kissed her softly. "Forever and always?" I asked."Forever and always."
