WILL MORETTI

Moment Four: Wedding

"Nervous?" I jumped at the sound and quickly spun around to see my Mom leaning against the open doorway to the 'dressing' room I was in.

"Like you wouldn't believe." I wiped at the moisture gathering on my forehead. "But a million times more excited." Mom smiled at that and came fully into the room, shutting the door behind her.

"That's my boy." Mom smiled proudly, coming over to straighten my bow-tie.

"Any advice?" I asked, trying to breathe evenly, and resisting the urge to run a hand through my hair so I didn't mess it up.

"Don't leave her in twenty-five years for someone born now?" Mom suggested with a bitter laugh.

"Dad is an idiot, Mom." I shook my head and she smiled. "And leaving Miley would be like not breathing, or my heart not beating. She's my whole world."

"I raised you right." Mom smiled a little sadly, and I knew she was remembering something sappy from when I was a kid. "And you picked a good girl, make sure you treat her like a Princess."

"I will, Mom, I promise." I grinned and glanced at the dressing table. Miley had refused to break superstition and I hadn't seen her since for two days, but I had one of my favourite photos of her in the room with me when I was getting ready. In the picture Miley had been half asleep and giggling at some comedy movie we were watching and she'd been too adorable not to grab my phone and take a picture. "How-how is she?" I asked nervously.

"Robby's depressed." Typical Robby Stewart. I mean, he's a great guy, but I think a little too attached to his little girl. "Lilly's a nervous wreck." Miley's best friend and maid of honor. "And those two red-headed grandmothers of hers are true red-heads with their tempers." Mom said and I frowned.

"But... What about Miley?" I questioned and Mom smiled.

"She tried to set the time on the clock ahead so she could, and I quote, 'marry that big dork sooner'." I grinned at that and let out the breath I didn't know I'd been holding. "Anyway, I actually came to tell you that you should head to the alter, there's going to be a beautiful girl walking down the isle in about ten minutes." My eyes widened, ten minutes. "Go!" Mom reminded and I grinned and quickly kissed her on the cheek before I ran out. In little more than ten minutes Miley would finally be married to me, I'd finally be her husband, we'd be together forever in the eyes of God.

It was the longest ten minutes of my life, I swear my watch was running slow, I was checking it every few secondds and it seemed to only have passed a quarter of the time it felt like. Then the doors opened and the flower girl, the ring boys, the bridesmaids, the maid of honor...

"Miley." I breathed, she looked so beautiful. She was wearing a beautiful white dress that hugged her perfectly, yet was still perfect for a church, and there was a thin veil covering her face, but I could still see the faint blush on her cheeks. It felt like hours until Miley reached me and I couldn't stop grinning like an idiot the entire time. "I-I-I-" I couldn't even talk, Miley blushed and looked down a little, being shy.

"Hi." Miley smiled shyly, her eyes moving up to me and I grinned.

"Wow." I finally managed to get a coherent word out of my mouth and she giggled.

"You're pretty wow too, Will." Miley's eyes were sparkling through the veil and I just wanted to kiss her so badly.

"I love you." We both blurted out at the same time and the priest laughed, drawing us out of our own little world.

I'm undecided about what I want Moment 5 to be. It has to be something really momentous.

This chapter goes out to MOELOVER, just seeing your name gives me butterflies :)
