"Mom, how do I look?" Tea asked as she stood in front of a full length mirror wearing a silk strapless white wedding gown reaching down to the floor.
"Beautiful Tea just beautiful I can't believe the day has finally come. My little girl is getting married." Mrs. Gardner burst into tears. "Now I am going to ruin my make up."
"Here is a towel mom." Tea handed over the white towel to her.
"Thank you baby girl." Mrs. Gardner dried her tears. "Now I know this is old fashion but here is something old." Mrs. Gardner gave Tea a small box.
"What is it?" Tea asked.
"Open it to find out darling." Mrs. Gardner smiled. Tea opened it to reveal two diamond earrings.
"Mom these are beautiful where did you get them?"
"From your great grandmother, she passed them down to my grandmother who gave it to my mother and she gave it to me now I am giving it to you."
"Thank you mommy." Tea smiled as she put the earrings on.
"Now I got something blue." Tea's mother took out a small blue napkin.
"A napkin seriously mother?"
"It's the only thing I could find in blue sue me."
"Now you need something borrowed." Mrs. Gardner said.
"I got that covered mom I 'borrowed' your diamond necklace."
"Tea say what now." Her mother said shock "You are so lucky it's your wedding day or else you ass would get a serious beating."
"What about something new mom?" Tea asked.
"That dress you have on is new so we are cool." Mrs. Gardner said.
"Oh mother" Tea muttered.
"Don't oh mother me now hush we still have to put six silver pence in your shoe"
"I never heard of that one before" Tea said.
"Because it's a very, very old tradition I did it for my wedding and your daddy and I have been together for over thirty years now."
'Old' Tea thought.
"Even though I find it ridiculous can I get the six silver-?"
"Way ahead of you baby girl" Tea's mother took six silver pence from her pocket. Tea slid off her shoe and placed them in there before putting it back on.
"It feels uncomfortable" Tea said.
"It a few moments it's like they were never there sweetie now finish getting dress I bet Atem can't wait to see you."
Tea nodded before her mother left. 'I can't believe it when I was younger I would dream of been a princess like in those fairy tales book then as the years progressed I lost hope in ever finding a 'prince charming' and said that those stories are for suckers that believe in magic and all that mythically stuff. Then I meet Atem and everything changed I feel happy when ever I am with him and when I am sad he would do anything in his powers even sending people to the shadow realm just to make the source of my sadness go away. We have our disagreements but Atem and I have always seemed to work it out by the end of the day. I never thought love was ever meant for me like I did something wrong and I was destined to be alone forever now here I am standing in my beautiful wedding gown getting married to the most handsome and loving guy I have ever met and I am never letting him go not even in death.' She thought.
As Tea was finishing up a knock came on the door.
"Who is it?" Tea asked.
"It's your daddy, Tea pumpkin the wedding is about to start."
"Coming daddy I am just finishing up some stuff." Tea put on the tiara before opening the door.
"I am ready."
"Atem what's taking you so long?" Yugi asked as he knocked on the room door. Atem opened the door and said "Nothing I am just finishing getting ready."
"Hurry up the wedding is about to start and it can't be a wedding without the bride and groom."
"I want to look prefect for Tea." Atem stood n front of the full length mirrior.
"Tea thinks you look handsome even went your not wearing that black suit now come on." Yugi said.
Atem smiled before putting on his jacket and head out.
"Nervous?" Yugi asked.
"Never I am about to marry the love of my life and nothing will not ruin this day or else it will be banished to the shadow realm." Atem smiled before he walked out to the alter.
A few moments later the pianist began to play and the bridesmaids and groomsmen started to walk out.
Tristan came out first in his black tux holding Serenity's hand who happened to be wearing a light blue spaghetti strap dress as the two marched down the alter Joey followed behind holding Mai's hand as they marched down then Yugi and Rebecca soon followed afterwards.
As the bridal party took their place the pianist changed to 'Here comes the bride'
Everyone in the church stood up and turn toward the door.
"Ready Tea?" Her father asked.
"Yes I am." Tea said confidently before the two marched off.
Tea looked up to the top of the alter to see the only man that made her heart beat, the father of her children and her soul mate for all eternity.
Atem watched as Tea and her father walk down and she just took his breath away. 'Never in all my years as pharaoh have I seen such a beautiful person and I am going to treat her like the beautiful queen she is to me.' Atem thought.
"Dearly beloved we are here to join together Atem Mutou and Tea Gardner as husband and wife. Now the couple has written their own vows and would like to share them with each other." The pastor said.
"Tea you are my rock, heart, best friend and soul mate and I couldn't have asked for a more beautiful queen to be my wife and the mother to my children than you. I love you from my soul and I know that no matter what I will protect you from danger and cherish you forever. I love you and nothing or no one will ever change that."Atem said with love in his eyes.
Tea began to cry after hearing the beautiful vow Atem said. Atem whip the tears away from her eyes before she spoke.
"Atem I love you more than my own life. Over the years you have always there supporting and cheering me on every step of the way. You are my light, my best friend, my love and I can image my life without you in it. Over time we have become connected spiritual and now as husband and wife." Atem was taken back by Tea's vows and almost cried.
"Before I move on does anyone object to this union?" The pastor asked.
Tea's mother stood up and looked around the church giving everyone an evil glare ready to kill if anyone objects.
The room became quiet for a moment then Mrs. Gardner sat back down before the pastor said "Do you Atem take Tea to be your wife in sickness and in health, for better for worst and for richer and poorer for as long as you shill live?"
"I do" Atem said happily.
"Do you Tea take this man to be your husband in sickness and in health, for better for worst and for richer and poorer for as long as you shill live?"
"I do." Tea replied without hesitation.
"Now for the rings" The pastor said Yugi and Rebecca handed the rings to Tea and Atem.
"Repeat after me Atem, with this ring I thee wed."
Atem repeated "With this ring I thee wed." before putting it on her finger.
"Now you Tea"
"With this ring I thee wed."
"You with the power invested in me and God I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride."
Atem quickly kiss Tea passionately on the lips. Tea reacted quickly and returns the kiss with even more passion.
"My queen you are now mine in body and soul." Tea whispered.
"And you are mine in every where shape or form." Tea whispered back. Atem smiled.
"I am yours forever my Tea and you can do what you please for I thrust you more than anyone else with my life and heart. I love you."
"I love you too Atem" Tea said before the two kissed once again.
