Chapter 4

It seemed like forever, but the limo finally pulled up to the reception hall. Andrew and Margaret got out at the entrance, looked at each other,

and kissed before linking arms, waiting for them to be introduced--again.

"And here they are now, ladies and gentlemen, may I present to you Paxton!"

Walking in, they were greeted with loud claps and cheers. After chatting with a few other guests, they noticed his family approaching.

"Hey you two!" Joe said, as he, Grace, and Annie all took turns hugging the happy couple. "Congratulations! So, how's married life treating

you so far?"

"Wonderful, absolutely amazing" Margaret said, looking up and smiling at her husband.

"Perfect, absolutely perfect," Andrew replied, looking at his wife, and returning her smile, before leaning in for a short little kiss.

"Well, we couldn't be happier for you two--really. We wish you nothing but the best" Grace said.

"And take care of her--don't let her get away. You two really have something special" Annie added.

"I will, Gammy. I promise you, I will" Andrew said. Just as they were finishing their conversations, they heard "Allright, it's now time for

Andrew and Margaret's first dance as husband and wife."

Andrew held out his hand to Margaret. "May I have this dance, ?"

"Of course you may" she replied. She took his hand, and they headed out onto the dance floor. He wrapped his arms around her

waist, and she wrapped her arms around his neck, and together they began to move slowly to the music.

(I do swear that I'll always be there. I'd give anything

and everything and I will always care. Through weakness

and strength, happiness and sorrow, for better, for worse,

I will love you with every beat of my heart.)

From this moment life has begun

From this moment you are the one

Right beside you is where I belong

From this moment on

From this moment I have been blessed

I live only for your happiness

And for your love I'd give my last breath

From this moment on

I give my hand to you with all my heart

Can't wait to live my life with you, can't wait to start

You and I will never be apart

My dreams came true because of you

From this moment as long as I live

I will love you, I promise you this

There is nothing I wouldn't give

From this moment on

------

You're the reason I believe in love

And you're the answer to my prayers from up above

All we need is just the two of us

My dreams came true because of you

From this moment as long as I live

I will love you, I promise you this

There is nothing I wouldn't give

From this moment

I will love you as long as I live

From this moment on

As the song ended, everyone clapped and cheered for the happy couple. As they did, Margaret, who hands were still

around his neck, and Andrew leaned in close, so that their foreheads were touching.

"I mean every word. And for as long as we live, I promise you that not a day will go by where I will not feel this way.

Never forget that" Andrew said.

"I know you do, and so do I--with all my heart" Margaret replied. And with that, they leaned in for just one of many more

kisses that they would share as husband and wife.
