The second those two little words left her mouth I felt like my face would split in two I was smiling so hard, I couldn't stop it, my grin was so stupid and so big that my cheeks hurt. But I didn't give a shit because Adrian's face was mirroring mine, only she had her bottom lip clamped between her teeth as she tried desperately to pull on the reins and look less like a crazy person, but I didn't care if we looked crazy, we were happy. I waited for Dad to say the next line, as Alpha we decided to have him marry us. I felt like a kid waiting for Christmas he seemed to be taking forever, he smiled at both of us then told me what I was dying to hear, that Adrian was officially my wife.
He didn't have to tell me what to do next; I stepped towards my Angel and kissed her pulling her against me and sliding my hands into her hair. She grabbed the lapels of my tux and kissed me back just as eagerly. I hadn't even given my Dad time to say I could kiss her much to the amusement of our guests. "I guess you can kiss the bride then" Dad says causing everyone to erupt in another wave of laughter.
I still didn't care I bent my knees and picked my new wife up in the typical way you should carry a bride so I wouldn't have to bend to kiss her. Everyone may as well settle in because I planned on kissing her for a very long time, at least I did until Dad prized me off of her. Adrian was blushing crimson but still smiling.
The reception was held at the Surf Shack after the ceremony on the beach. All our family and friends were invited, Adrian's band, her friend Josh and her friend Sophia who she'd met in England. When Adrian had introduced me to Sophia the first words out of her mouth had been "How the hell did you get a man like that and where can I get one?"
After that comment Adrian burst out laughing and decided she wanted another bridesmaid and Sophia eagerly accepted. Of course Marina was a bridesmaid, Megan too and they both loved it. Leo couldn't make it but Adrian wasn't too upset about that, it was her Dad not being there to give her away that really upset her. When he told her he wasn't gonna be able to come I'd taken the phone off of her and torn him a new one, I told him if he couldn't make the effort for his daughters wedding day then he wasn't welcome in her life. I know that wasn't my decision to make but I was pissed and Adrian didn't object.
If our little bump turned out to be a girl I would never be like him, I saw what it did to Adrian and because of it I hated a man I'd never even met. I'd never let my daughter feel like I didn't want her in my life, and I'd never put my life before her. But it was too soon to tell the sex of the baby so for now Adrian and I are still guessing, but we both really want to know. I want a little girl but Adrian want a boy.
She was only two months along, you couldn't really tell she was pregnant by looking at her at all, that was one of Adrian's stipulations for the wedding, we could get married before the baby came as long as she didn't look pregnant in her wedding photographs and as long as she could have all of her drinks in a champagne flute so she didn't feel left out.
Throwing a wedding together and having it perfect in a month turned out to be a tall order and I had to call in the big guns, A.K.A Alice and Willow. It paid off in the end because Adrian was really happy. Unexpectedly Adrian and Rosalie became really good friends and she loved the rest of my family too and they loved her. It was nice to have everyone together again even if it was just for the wedding.
Shila's best man speech was inspired and had everybody laughing he told the worst story about one time in collage when he Miles and I had been out drinking and I'd gotten shit faced drunk and decided to go skinny dipping in the fountain. Needless to say Shila and Miles who were less drunk ran off with my clothes. All I knew was I had to get back to our dorm before someone caught me streaking through Portland and hope someone would buzz me into the building. I had nothing to cover myself with so used the only thing I could find which was a plastic carrier bag. Little did I know Shila and Miles had arrived back at the dorm only for the fire alarm to go off. The entire building was evacuated onto the street most of them in their pyjamas and that's when I show up with a plastic bag over my junk, it was one of the most embarrassing nights of my life. I glance at Adrian when Shila's done and she's laughing at me.
When it was time for Adrian to throw her bouquet the few single and unmarried women in the room lined up behind her there wasn't many because most of them where imprints and already married. I hear Misty mutter under her breath and tilt my head to catch what she's saying "I'm so getting that bouquet" she says and I chuckle I look over at Seth and he's smirking, I know he's heard her too.
"I think she's trying to tell you something" I say and Seth laughs.
"You think?" he grins.
Adrian threw the bouquet and it was like feeding time at the zoo, the women went crazy the last time I'd seen something this frightening I'd been dragged to the Mall with my Mom and Alice, there was a sale on and the women were animals. I remember watching my Aunt Alice prise another woman's fingers off a pair of Jimmy choos looking ready to sink her fangs in if she had too. Misty lunged for the white roses as they tumbled to the ground but Adrian's friend Sophia got there first. She held it up in the air and jumped up and down "Yeah mother bitches!" Sophia shouts and Adrian falls into a fit of giggles before cheering.
Next thing I know the guests are clearing the dance floor and it's my turn, they place a chair in the middle and Kai lead's Adrian over to it, she sits down and slowly pulls the skirt of her dress up to her thighs, watching me with a sexy smirk the whole time. A few of the guys whoop and I shoot Miles a glare when he whistles loudly through his fingers, I try to remind myself it's all in good fun.
I get down on one knee in front of Adrian a push her dress aside to reveal her garter. She giggles. "Seems like just yesterday I was in this very position" I whisper to her and she smiles wider. I dip my head and take the garter between my teeth and start to slide it down her leg. I take her leg and lift it a little, sliding the garter all the way to her knee kissing and nipping at her skin as I go, I'm subtle about it but when I glance up Adrian I can tell by the look in her eyes she's noticed. I slip her high heel off and Adrian drapes her leg over my shoulder getting a cheer from the men and a howl of laughter from the women, I swear I hear Claire drunkenly squeal with delight. Once the garters off I hold it in the air a twirl it around my finger, the single men crowd together and with my finger and thumb I ping it towards them.
Miles practically leap frogs off of Trey and grabs it mid air. He holds it up in triumph and I try not to be annoyed he's the one who caught it. Adrian pulls me to her and kisses me "easy" she tells me with a smirk "Rein that wolf back in" she laughs and I hug her to me forcing myself to calm down.
Half way through mine and Adrian's millionth dance of the night she grabs Sophia's wrist as we pass her, she drags her over to where Miles is stood and throws her into his arms, she trips and Miles only just catches her. Their eyes meet and I don't know who's more surprised Miles or me and Adrian. Adrian turns to me wide eyed. "Did what I think just happened really just happen?" she asks and I laugh, I nod and she laughs too. She covers her mouth with her hand. "Oh my God, I am really good at matchmaking" she says and I laugh.
"Yeah you should start an imprint dating service" I joke and she grins, she snuggles into my chest and I kiss her hair. I watch Miles and Sophia introducing themselves and awkwardly apologising for a minuet then rest my head against the top of Adrian's. I sigh content, looks like I'm not the only one everything was falling into place for.
A while later I'm sat at our table with my gorgeous wife in my lap, we were just watching our family and friends dance and enjoy themselves. Adrian leaned over to whisper in my ear and I perked up to listen to her. "Are you ok? Do you wanna go?" she asks, I pull back to look at her
"What no!" I insist, she smiles and leans forward to whisper in my ear again.
"Under this I'm wearing blue for you" she tells me, her breath tickling my neck. I briefly fantasized over that then stood up swiftly with her in my arms.
"Everybody! The bride and groom's leaving!" I announce to the party, Adrian giggles and pulls my lips to her, in that moment I couldn't be happier. I'd just married my soul mate, who just happened to be the most beautiful woman in the world and we were having a baby together. I didn't know what was yet to come for us but it was gonna be good, I could just tell.
