Hi there!
So long time no story… School has been absolutely beyond hectic and that's why I took the time to write a one shot. This isn't super long but I needed a break from studying for finals. So here ya go!
Prompt: Fic to the song "Wedding Dress"
Enjoy!
He stands in his tuxedo, pulled straight from his closet and slung into on the way out the door. There's a huge, goofy grin on his face as he stares out at the ocean, trying to calm his shaking hands. He's nervous, he's excited, he's so ready to see his girl.
He finds his mother's glance and then his daughter's, pride smiling from their eyes right back at him.
And in a quick glance towards the house, he double takes. There she is. She's absolutely stunning. Even more beautiful than he could have ever imagined her being; and that's hard to do.
She sees him staring and bows her head, her smile wider than his and her cheeks rosy pink in delight.
He catches her father's glance and he nods, a silent acknowledgment of trust, acceptance, and pride. He squeezes her hand as they finish their walk up the altar. She kisses his cheek and whispers a thank you and an I love you in his ear as his eyes well up. She looks up to the sky briefly, a mouthed I love you sent to the sky. He does the same, hoping she's watching, hoping that she approves of him.
He grabs her hands and whispers a hello, his entire world standing right there in front of him. She breathes out a shaky breath, her hands finding comfort in his.
As they stand on the altar as if no one else was around, he can't help but remember their journey. The absolute ride they've been on to get to this point. They've almost died together, saved each other, fixed each other, taught the other, and loved the other to the point of no return. Through ever laugh, tear, smile, and argument. Through every missed moment, screaming match, passionate night, and crazy adventure, they finally stood, face to face, to say a few words and exchange the rings.
She starts, her worlds carefully chosen, flowing gracefully off her tongue. They're filled with such passion as she stares right at his soul. She loves him more than she ever knew was possible.
She delicately places a band on his ring finger, signifying her words and putting them into action. She is his.
When she is done, he begins. His words are so eloquently thought up, his writer's brain creating a story. He places his whole heart into them as he delivers his love to her. He loves her more than he ever knew was possible.
He slides a band onto her ring finger, signifying his words and putting them into action. He is hers.
And when they both find each other's eyes again, there's a gravitational sensation pulling them together in a kiss. Their first as a unified couple.
Before this, they were something special on their own. They made names for themselves and lived a life that was to their standards.
But as husband and wife, they were extraordinary.
He stands with her in his arms, unable to take his eyes off of her. She catches his glance and smiles at him. Before they know it, they're dancing, off by themselves with the ocean as their audience.
He smiles to the setting sun unable to picture his life as being any more full with love. He's got it all. He truly struck the jackpot. He can't help but to think to the future. All of the memories and experiences they are bound to make. All of the things they will rediscover together.
She kisses his cheek and nuzzles back into his shoulder which brings him back to the present. The past was great, the future even greater. But the right now is all that matters.
