Carter's POV

My baby's graduation dinner was bliss. Everybody was enjoying themselves. Including my honeydoodle, however she could sense there was something wrong with me. I was nervous as hell. I had talked to her parents to see how I was going to do this, and finally, after almost 9 years of dating, it is finally time. There was no way in hell in screwing this up. There was only one chance, and I had to take it.

'Baby… are you ok? You look out of it…' Sera asked worriedly as she pulled me to her side when we went to choose something for a dessert from the buffet.

'Yeah… I'm great…' I smiled as I grabbed her from her waist and kissed her passionately. I managed to knock her off and her plate smashed in a thousand pieces on the floor.

'Wow…' She blushed as she went down picking up everything as Christian came forward.

'Hi, I know you two love birds want some time, but if you don't mind, I'd like to get my dessert…'

'Dad… you can walk around us…' Sera joked as he came down helping us out.

'Maybe I want to have some time with my baby… especially as she didn't tell me about the speech…'

'Daddy!'

'Ok… ok… but we're talking young lady…' He replied as she picked up everything and went to throw away the pieces.

'Carter, everybody is waiting… if you have to do it just do it… It's killing all of us…'

'Even you Christian?'

'Yes… even me…' He admitted.

'So does that mean I can call you dad?' I smiled.

'Dad? No… Father? Maybe…' He smiled. '…Welcome to the family Carter…'

'Took you long time to do so!' I replied.

'Better late than never…' He replied back. 'Carter get what you to do sorted out… we don't have till eternity here… and good luck…'

He was right. I had to get this over and done with. Sera was getting worried that there is something wrong with me, and I was getting all sweaty and nervous… What if she says no? What if? Oh damn…

'Sera… do you have a minute? I need to talk to you…' I asked her gently as the whole table stared at us.

'Um…' She started as she looked at her parents.

'Go…' Both of them replied in unison.

'Good luck Carter! Flowers remember the flowers!' Walter jumped on me as John took him over.

'Flowers?' Sera asked.

'Walter!' John scolded.

'It's fine…' I smiled. 'Don't worry big guy… I won't forget…' I smiled. He almost blew my plan, but now was the right moment.

'Carter is everything ok? You're worrying me…' Sera asked as we walked down the halls to the hotel's open garden.

'Everything's great…' I smiled. 'We just need to talk…' I continued as her face cringed. 'No no no no! Not that kind of talk… We're not breaking up!' I reassured. I knew how this was. When one of the couples mentioned talk, it sometimes always meant trouble and break ups. This however wasn't the case.

'Carter…' She stopped. 'Please… just tell me…'

'Can you wait for couple more minutes? I have something for you…' I smiled as I turned her around. 'Sera do you trust me?'

'Yes…' She replied without hesitation.

'Good…' I smiled. 'Close your eyes and hand me your glasses.' I ordered gently as she obliged. I took out a blind fold and blind folded her. 'Now… I want you to trust me and follow every instruction… ok?'

'Carter… you do know that this is… hot…' She took a deep breath as I kissed her neck.

'I know baby… just give me one more minute… ok?'

'Mhmm…' she smiled as I took her handed and guided her to open garden. From the balcony upstairs I could see all the family watching. Damn this was hard. I never expected this to be this hard. But it's all worth it in the end.

'Ok… You can open them…' I smiled as I took the blind fold off, and she remained staring at all the roses and butterflies flying around us.

'Oh my… this is beautiful!' She smiled. 'Thank you Carter! This is the best gift I could have ever asked for!' She smiled as a butterfly landed on her hand.

'This is the first part of the surprise…' I smiled as she looked at me. I took her hand gently and held it strongly into mine. 'Sera. We've been dating for almost 9 years now, and… I've been thinking for this last year. We've had our ups and downs. We've been through a lot together… and you've been through a lot on your own account, but you always worked through them. I've never met such a strong person as you are. You had a piece of share from everything. You've failed in school and you repeated the year. You picked up your crap and moved forward and didn't let anything hold you back. You've simply stood up, held yourself back together and succeeded in anything you wanted to be, and I was thinking. This time apart from you is killing me each and every time. I'm tired of hoping to find you on my side every morning, or hoping to spoon you in my sleep. I'm done imagining… and I'm done hoping and dreaming. I realised that all I want is you in my life Sera, and there is no other person in this world that I would want this. I want to share all my future with you… my success, my career, but most importantly my Love, Life, and Dreams… my Time… I want to have everything with you… I want to have a family with you. I want to wake up every morning and find you there sleeping with that innocent pale flawless face. I just want you Sera…' I started as I could see clear tears in her eyes. I went forward on my knee and took out a small box. I opened in and took her left hand. 'Sera Elizabeth Grey, would you please do me the honour in being my wife in sickness and in health till death do us part?' I asked as she nodded and came forward to hug me.

'Yes… Yes Yes Yes a million times yes…' She replied as she looked straight into my eyes. 'Yes Carter.'

'Sera…'

'Yes I will marry you Carter!' She smiled as I placed the ring in her finger. I stood up and lifted her off. I kissed her passionately and she didn't hold back anything.

'Oh God! You made me the happiest man on this earth!' I replied as I kissed her again. 'I love you Sera Grey.'

'I love you Carter Brosnan.' She smiled as we could here everybody cheering from behind us. I guess they didn't wait to see our reaction.

'She said yes…'

'Congrats…' Christian shook my hand tightly. 'One piece of advice. You hurt her, and you have to see it with me.'

'I wouldn't dream of it Sir…'

'Have you told her?' Ana asked

'What?' She asked.

'I kind of was hoping you'd say yes, and I kind of booked everything with the help of your parents...'

'What do you mean?' She asked.

'If you want… we can get married in 4 months…' I smiled. 'We're not getting any younger…'

'Yes Carter!' She cut me off. As Carrick and Grace brought the champagne.

'To the engaged couple…' They all cheered.

Sera's POV – 4 months later – The Wedding Morning

It's been 4 months since Carter asked me to marry him, and the awaited day had finally arrived. I was so excited with everything. My mother was my spoke. She helped me prepare everything, to get everything in time, including the invitations. Dad helped Carter with anything that was needed at the reception and the church itself. There was so much to do in a wedding. Aunt Mia didn't hold back anything. She took out her big guns in wedding fashion preparations. I wasn't sure at all the ball gowns she was pulling. I wasn't prepared for something that big, but finally we compromised. For as long that there was lace into my dress, she would stay quiet. I chose a white "Waking Up" dropped waist ball gown with cotton macrame bodice and illusion sweetheart neckline, full organza skirt, and flower appliques on bodice and skirt hem, by Peter Langner. My mother cried when she saw it on me for the first time. We knew it was the dress. We both loved it. Dad bombarded us in wanting to see it before Carter, but I still wanted to give him this tiny surprise.

However, although this was my wedding day, I still wanted it to be special for both my parents and grandparents. They were there for me whenever I fell, and the last thing I could do is involve them all into my day.

I woke up early in the morning with everyone running from side to side, room to room. The pressure was getting to me. I couldn't take it seeing everyone panicking like that. I needed a moment for myself. Are these wedding jitters? I hope not…

I managed to quickly get ready for work. The wedding wasn't to be until 5pm. I could do few hours' work before I got ready with everything. I managed to sneak out without anyone seeing me. It wasn't long till I arrived to Uncle John's private practice. As I opened the door, I realised there were about 5 patients waiting for me and Uncle John to start. It was still 7.30am, and work was at its best. We couldn't just let patients wait.

John's POV

'I want Sera's files…' I started as I saw lock of curls passing through the door. 'Julia was Sera on duty today?'

'No Dr. Flynn… Why?' She asked as I quickly made my way to her office. She was crazy. On her wedding day… of most days…

Sera's POV

'Sera… just calm down… come on… you know this isn't bad. You made this decision. There is nothing to be afraid of. You fell in love with him… you love him.' I kept telling myself. I was shaking. I kept pacing around. 'Damn get yourself under control Grey…' I said again as I shook myself out of it as the door shut close.

'What the hell are you doing here? I thought I gave you the month off!' Uncle John burst in.

'I… I know how this looks uncle…' I started as he moved forward. 'I'm not bailing out if that's what you're thinking.'

'I wasn't thinking that Sera!'

'Oh… good…' I replied as I grabbed a file and started reading while he came forward and took it from my hands.

John's POV

I could see she was trying to block every thought, everything that bothered her. Her fingers were tapping her legs shaking nervously. These were the wedding jitters.

'You know as much as I do that drowning yourself in that doesn't work anymore…' I started as I pulled her to the couch. 'Want to talk?'

'Not really…' She smiled.

'What's wrong?'

'Nothing uncle…' She smiled weakly. 'I think I have the wedding jitters…' She laughed.

'I can't believe I'm doing this… but desperate times call for desperate measures.' I replied as I stood up and moved forward to the cabinet. I brought out some whisky and filled two glasses. 'Here…' I smiled as I handed it to her.

'You want to get me drunk?' She asked laughing lightly.

'No…' I replied as I sipped some of mine. 'Not drunk… just to calm your nerves and get you to talk…' I smiled. 'Just don't do as your father does.'

'What?'

'Drown it in one gulp…' I smiled.

'I won't… been there done that…' She smiled.

'Sera… what's wrong? You're supposed to be home preparing for your wedding day. You're supposed to be excited.'

'There's enough excitement at home for all the people invited…' She smiled.

'What do you mean?'

'It's nothing Uncle…' She replied as she sipped some of her glass. 'This is good…' She smiled. 'Thanks…'

'Sera are you getting cold feet?'

'Yeah… sort of…' She smiled. '…but not enough to not show up…'

'Wow… you're thinking on not showing up to the wedding?'

'No no!' She stopped me. 'No Uncle… I'm not thinking about that… It's just cold feet!' She replied as she stood up and paced away.

'How's Christian taking it?'

'He's… not that cooperative… but he's getting used to the idea…' She replied. 'I'm going to miss them…' she smiled. 'At one point I'm living with my parents… and in one second, as I say the word 'YES' I'm no longer living with my parents…' She replied as she filled her second glass.

'Easy with that…'

'I have a stomach's horse uncle…' She smiled.

'Is it that?'

'Is it what?'

'That you're going to miss your parents?'

'Yeah… part of it…' She replied. '…but then… Uncle you hear with many divorces and separations… what if I'll be one of them? I… I don't want to throw my life away…'

'I know you don't kiddo…' I smiled. '…but this is something that everyone goes through. I went through it as well.'

'You did?'

'Yeah… only I decided to bungee jump before my wedding…'

'Is that why dad got angry at you when he picked you up?' She asked me again.

'You remember?'

'How can I not? You almost killed my father and my grandparents. They were so worried about you! You crazy uncle! And there I thought you're the most one composed and so together in this family.'

'Hey I'm not perfect… I'm nowhere near perfect munchkin…' I replied as she filled what seemed her third glass. 'Ok… no more for you… I need you sober… Your father will kill me if I take you home drunk…'

'I'm not drunk uncle…' She replied as I pulled her to my side. 'You know I was wild back in my days…'

'Yeah… right…' she chuckled.

'Hey I used to own a Harley…'

'You?'

'Yeah… I had long hair… I was obsessed with music. In fact I wanted to be a musician…'

'What happened to your dreams?'

'Music doesn't quite pay the bills Sera… I started college and it broadened my perspective.' I smiled. 'Then I met Rhian… Damn… she's so beautiful… till this very day…' I smiled.

'You love her don't you?'

'So much Sera… and looking back, I really can't figure out what I was afraid of in getting married… Now I have two amazing kids… a loving wife… an amazing surrogate daughter…' I smiled as I placed my arm protectively around her shoulder. 'You've come a long way kiddo… I'm in awe…'

'Thanks…' She smiled as rested her head on my chest and closed her eyes.

'You tired?'

'A little…' She replied as I felt her relax into my arms. I decided that this was the best time to get to her. Just like when she was younger.

'Sera… be honest with me… what's really bothering you…'

'Nothing is bothering me uncle… I'm just afraid… Would I make a good wife? A good person? How will I do this? What if we fight? What if… I don't know he snores!' She chuckled. '…and then…'

'Then what?'

'Uncle… I don't know if I'm ready to make love to him… I'm expected to be ready tonight…'

'You guys still haven't made the deed?' I asked surprised.

'What? No!' She replied. 'We decided to wait… I wasn't ready… I was also afraid of ending up pregnant… He was afraid that my dad would discover and he'll and I quote 'dismantle his jewels…' she laughed. 'Geez I have to imagine dad doing so…'

'He keeps his word Sera…'

'I know he does…'

'Why are afraid of this Sera? Or better yet… what?'

'Uncle… my experience with sex… isn't what you'd quite want… what anyone wants for the matter… I just… I don't know… will it hurt? Will I be good at it? Will I suck at it? Or will I get them back into mind and compare?'

'Sera… first time is always a bit painful… but it gets enjoyable… Have you talked with your parents about this?'

'Nah… They're busy with the wedding… Gail is covering for me…' She smiled. 'The wedding is more for them to keep them occupied. It helps you know…'

'I know…' I smiled. 'I can't believe that you're all grown up and having your own family now…'

'Neither can I…'

'Sera… have you told Carter about this?'

'He knows… he said that we can take things slow… but he has already waited for years… and I don't think I can do slow…'

'What do you mean?'

'At times I want it… at times… I back out…'

'It's normal to have mixed feelings…'

'How do I get rid of them?'

'You don't get rid of them Sera… You deal with them…'

'That's helpful…' She replied sarcastically.

'I know it seems hard Sera… but maybe… if you voice your fears with Carter… he can take it slow…'

'I have to do this… for him at least…' She replied as she stood up.

'Sera… you don't have to do anything you don't want to!'

'I know I know… but… it's our wedding night… it's supposed to be special…'

'…and it will be… Listen, I know it seems impossible right now… and it seems hard… but I promise you one thing. With all the excitement and happiness of the night, you'll forget everything. You wouldn't even notice that you both want it as much as each other and probably more!'

'Is that how it was for you?'

'Strangely? Yes…' I chuckled. 'Sera… I told you… I'm not perfect as everyone seems to think I am. I had my own share of fears…' I smiled as I hugged her tight. 'Once you get back from your honeymoon, we'll go for lunch, sit down and have a good talk… I think you're old enough to hear everything now…' I smiled.

'I love you Uncle!'

'I do too munchkin… very much!' I smiled as I let go of our embrace. 'Now… I want you to go home, get showered, sleep, and get ready for the wedding. I don't want you to set foot in this office until a month from now… Am I clear young lady?'

'Yes Sir…' She replied smiling lightly. 'You're coming to the wedding right? You're my witness…'

'I wouldn't miss it for the world…' I smiled. 'Now come on… chop chop… off you go…' I smiled as I checked my phone, and realised there were about 20 texts from Christian. 'Ohh, and your parents know you're here…'

'Great…' She smiled. 'I'll see you later…'

Sera's POV – 04.50pm

The hour mostly awaited was finally here. My mother put the veil over my face. She started crying as she saw me. I cried with her. I was so going to miss her.

'Mummy… please don't cry!' I smiled as I hugged her. 'I'm going to cry now…'

'Don't… I've spent hours fixing that eye liner!' She scolded as she hugged me. 'Oh my… How am I going to live without you?'

'Mum… I'll be living a 5 minute walk away from you!'

'I know…' She smiled as grandma Grace knocked on my door with Grandma Carla.

'Oh my… you look so beautiful!' They both joined in.

'You guys like it?' I smiled as both hugged me tight.

'You look amazing…' Grandma Carla replied.

'It's time…' Taylor smiled as he also entered the room. 'Christian is waiting outside…'

'Taylor…'

'Natalie's waiting outside…' He reassured me. 'She made it…' He smiled as he kissed my cheek lightly. 'Now come on before I cry as well…'

We walked down the hall with Natalie and my mother helping me keep balance. The dress was getting at my feet. I was still getting used to walk in it… but this was something I chose, and I didn't care how hard it was to walk in it.

Dad was outside the chapel door. He was pacing, and I could see him having some sort of inner talk with himself. My mother caught his attention.

'Christian…' She called him.

'You look beautiful Sera…' He started as he moved forward hugging me.

Christian's POV

My baby was getting married. I prepared for everything in life… Even the things that were least in important in everyone's book, but I've never prepared myself emotionally for her getting married. Carter was taking her away from me… away from us… I had little time with her, and now she's having her own family… why couldn't she have just us? Why? I could give her everything she wanted… Except the Eros kind of Love. I had to get myself sorted. I couldn't allow her seeing me like this. I was about to cry. I wasn't prepared for this day… no matter how much I've tried keeping myself occupied… She finally came down. She looked so beautiful. I wasn't prepared for this, and this was our baby…

'We'll give you two sometime…' Ana smiled, as everyone went in to take his seat in the chapel.

'Is Carter here?' Sera asked. She was afraid he wasn't going to show up. If he didn't I would have killed him myself.

'He's on the Altar…' I smiled. 'How are you feeling?' I asked her gently.

'Honestly? Scared…' She replied as she took a deep breath in and out. 'You?'

'Same… only for different reasons…' I admitted. 'I'm so going to miss you… Please don't forget that you have two old people back home… We'll be waiting for your visits… calls…'

'Dad… you also forgot that you have my keys… you can come to my place any times… and you'll also be seeing me at GEH…'

'I know… but… I'm still going to miss you…' I pouted.

'I'm going too dad…' She replied as she hugged me tight. 'Just please… do me one favour… don't change my room… for now at least? Please?'

'Hey… We're never taking your room away… just like we haven't taken Jason's away…' I smiled. 'That's the only thing I have left of yours…'

'Thank you...' She smiled.

'Sera, before we go in, I should tell you something. Just in case anything happens, I've done a law suit against Carter. Whatever happens I want you to be able to continue with your life. I've opened a separate account in my name, but you can use it. You have 15% of my income coming straight into this account.'

'Dad… I can't accept…'

'You have to and you will…' I cut her off. 'Sera whatever happens I want you to be able to continue on with your life… That's the only thing I could take care of for you… I know you love Carter… but just in case he hurts you… I don't want him to leave you as a rug… you're my kid and I have to look out for you. I can't bear the thought of losing you to anyone…'

'…and you won't daddy…' She smiled. 'I'm always going to be your baby…'

'I'm glad I'm hearing you saying this…' I smiled. 'I love you peanut…'

'I love you too daddy…' She smiled as I took her hand and he chapel door opened. The whole audience stood awaiting the bride and her father 'That's me by the way…' I smiled to myself. I could see Carter at the altar waiting nervously, but as he saw Sera, he smiled, and I couldn't see why not. The music started, and so did we. I held her hand tighter. I think I could have squished her into mine. We finally arrived at the altar. I took the veil off her face and kissed her cheek. She was about to take her hand from mine to join that into Carter's, but I didn't want to let go.

'Dad…' She smiled. 'My hand…'

'Oh yes…' I replied as she tried again, but I didn't want to let go.

'Dad…'

'Christian…' Ana stopped me, as the whole church chuckled.

'We have some hesitant people today…' The priest continued on. 'Dear friends and family, we are gathered here today to witness and celebrate the union of Sera Elizabeth Grey and Carter Richard Wiliam Cavanaugh Brosnan in marriage.' He started as the whole church took a deep breath out. Damn what a surname, and my kid was keeping hers as well. That's going to be one long name. 'Through their time together, they have come to realize that their personal dreams, hopes, and goals are more attainable and more meaningful through the combined effort and mutual support provided in love, commitment, and family; and so they have decided to live together as husband and wife. Today, as you join yourselves in marriage, there is a vast and unknown future stretching out before you. The possibilities and potentials of your married life are great; and now falls upon your shoulders the task of choosing your values and making real your dreams. Through your commitment to each other, may you grow and nurture a love that makes both of you better people, a love that continues to give you great joy, and also a passion for living that provides you with energy and patience to face the responsibilities of life. True marriage is more than joining the bonds of marriage of two persons; it is the union of two hearts. It lives on the love you give each other and never grows old, but thrives on the joy of each new day. Marriage is love. May you always be able to talk things over, to confide in each other, to laugh with each other, to enjoy life together, and to share moments of quiet and peace, when the day is done. May you be blessed with a lifetime of happiness and a home of warmth and understanding.' The priest continued. It wasn't long till the readings started. Time was literally flying, and finally it was time for the vows. 'Sera's and Carter's closest friends and family are here today to bear witness to their union. Will you promise, to love and support their marriage in all the days to come? If so, please respond 'We Will.'

'We will.' All the church said in unison.

'Have you written any vows?'

'Yes…' Both replied together. '…but we also have a little thing.' Sera continued as the priest smiled.

'Mr. and Mrs. Grey… both Grey's please…' He called us both. 'Please come forward…' He continued. 'Both my parent's and us kept staring at each other. We weren't prepared for this, but then this was our daughter and Carter talking about.

'Carter and Sera told me that you have been married for 22 years and you for 50 years.' He started. 'They wanted to share this special day with you. They wanted you to renew your vows with them…' He continued. I looked straight into my daughter's eyes. I was smiling from the inside and outside. She didn't forget us, but she also wanted to share this day with us. We all took our places onto the altar. 'Should you start Mr. and Mrs. Grey?' He asked to my parents while they nodded. 'Mr. Grey.'

'Grace, we've been married for 50 years. We had 3 kids and adopted John. We've been through everything together with love, faith responsibility and most of all trust. I must say, I still feel the same as that first time I've seen you in the library back in 1960, where we both were care free of life itself and only focused in getting where we are today. Grace, I love you with all my heart, and I will never stop doing it, till my last breath.'

'Carrick, you've been my rock in tough times, and you've been my mind when I needed. We love each other without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you straightforwardly without complexities or pride; so I love you because I know no other way that this; where I does not exist nor you, so close that you hand on my chest is my hand, so close that your eyes close and I fall asleep. I love you Carrick and I vow to love you today, always and forever.'

'The other Grey's…' the priest guided.

'Ana…' I started. '22 years ago I made my vows, and what's better to renew them than saying what I truly said 22 years ago?' I continued as she squeezed my hand. 'I solemnly vow that I will safeguard and hold dear and deep in my heart our union and you.
I promise to love you faithfully, forsaking all others, through the good times and the bad, in sickness or in health, regardless of where life takes us.
I will protect you, trust you, and respect you.
I will share your joys and sorrows and comfort you in times of need.
I promise to cherish you and uphold your hopes and dreams and keep you safe at my side.
All that is mine is now yours.
I give you my hand, my heart, and my love from this moment on for as long as be both shall live.'

'I give you my solemn vow to be your faithful partner in sickness and in health, to stand by your side in good times and in bad, to share your joy as well as your sorrow.
I promise to love you unconditionally, to support you in your goals and dreams, to honour and respect you, to laugh with you and cry with you, to share my hopes and dreams with you, and bring you solace in times of need.
And to cherish you for as long as we both shall live.' She said as we kissed each other.

'Not now…' The priest smiled. 'We still have one couple to marry first…' He smiled. 'Sera… Carter…'

'Sera, I vow to fiercely love you in all your forms, now and forever. I promise to never forget that this is a once in a lifetime love, and to always remember and know that you are what makes me whole. I promise to live you without condition to honour you each and every day to laugh with you when you're happy to support you when you're sad to guide you when you ask for direction to challenge you to be a better person, and allow you to do the same for me to be your biggest fan and your every present listening audience. There is always joy in my ears when you answer the phone and in my eyes when I open the door to see you behind it. I vow to always love you and face the world with you, no matter how high and hard the current may be. I love you Sera Grey.'

'I vow to help you love life, to always hold you with tenderness and to have the patience that love demands, to speak when words are needed and to share the silence when they are not. To live in the warmth of your heart and always call it home. Let me be the shoulder you lean on, the rock on which you rest. The companion of your life. I choose you above all others. I promise to encourage and respect you. Support your hopes and dreams. To change with you, to bring joy to your heart, to love you more each day then I did the day before. I promise to walk by your side until our end of days Forever.'

'Those were some nice words. All of you…' The priest smiled. 'Carter, Christian, Carrick, will you have this woman, Sera, Anastasia, Grace, to be your wedded wife, to live together in marriage, will you love her, comfort her, honour her, and keep her, in sickness and in health, in sorrow and in joy, so long as you both shall live?'

'I do…' All of us replied.

'sera, Anastasia, Grace, will you have this man, Carter, Christian, Carrick, to be your wedded husband, to live together in marriage, will you love him, comfort him, honour him, and keep him, in sickness and in health, in sorrow and in joy, so long as you both shall live?'

'I do…' The women replied.

'Now please, Carter, read the vows.'

'I, Carter, take you, Sera to be my wife; to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish always.' Carter said as he placed the ring on my daughter's finger.

'Now you Sera…' The priest smiled.

'I, Sera, take you, Carter to be my husband; to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish always.' Sera said as she placed the ring on Carter's finger.

'By the power invested in me from God and the state, I know pronounce you husband and wife.' The priest said. 'You may kiss the bride…' We all united in our kiss sealing our marriage and renewals. I looked at the new couple. They looked so happy. Both smiling and still kissing, but soon had to break it off. I could Sera was panting.

Sera's POV

The wedding was bliss. I loved every second of it. Uncle John was right. I guess they were just wedding jitters. I cried when I had my dance with dad. I was going to miss him so much. I wished at that moment I was still young… but now I had someone that loves me and I knew he wasn't going to hurt me.

We were finally in our hotel room, as we had to catch the flight to Paris at 9am. We entered our room kissing. We couldn't keep our hands off each other any longer. Carter closed and shut the door. He prepared everything. Champagne, wine, roses… even my favourite sleeping wear… he took care of everything.

'So Mrs. Grey Cavanaugh Brosnan…' He started between kissing. 'What do you want to do?'

'Mhmm… for starters getting this dress off…' I smiled.

'Let me do that for you honey doodle…' He replied as he turned me and started kissing my neck while stripping me slowly. 'You know… I love this dress. You look so beautiful in it!' He smiled. 'Maybe we can do a shorter different colour version of this dress?'

'Whatever you want snickerdoodle…' I replied as he removed my dressed. 'Someone had been practicing…'

'I kind of have…' He smiled as I turned and kissed him passionately back. For once I was feeling comfortable in my skin. I wasn't ashamed of my body in front of him. 'You're so beautiful…'

'Thank you baby…' I smiled as I removed his shirt, but he couldn't wait any longer. He threw everything off on the floor and pushed me gently on the bed. He came on top of me and continued kissing me, but he soon stopped.

'Why did you stop?'

'Sera, I need to ask you this… do you want me to do this?'

'Yes Carter…'

'Sera… are you sure?' He asked me again.

'Carter, I've never been sure of anything else in my life… I love you and I want to give you this…'

'I don't want you to give me anything… All I want is for you to be comfortable and ready… I can wait Sera… Love isn't about making love…'

'I know Carter… but I want this…' I reassured him.

'Are you sure?'

'100% positive Carter…' I smiled again as I started kissing him again.

'Sera…' He said in between kissing. 'If I hurt you…'

'I'll tell you… I promise…' I smiled as I kissed him again. He came back on top of me and caressed me gently everywhere. His touch was electrifying and I was feeling warmer and warmer each second passed. His hand was soon on my back and in few seconds my bra wasn't on anymore.

'You're a fine sight from up here baby…'

'You're not so bad yourself Carter…' I smiled back while he removed my underwear.

'Damn… I can't hold on any longer…' He said as he removed his boxers. 'Are you ready?' He asked me again as he placed himself gently while I nodded. 'Sera… this is going to hurt a bit…' He advised me. 'If it's too much… tell me…' He said again while I nodded. 'Ok… this is it…' He smiled as he kissed me again as he entered me gently and slowly. I moaned. It was good… not as painful as I expected him to be. 'Sera, are you ok?' He asked again as he caught one of my tears while I nodded as he moved gently.

'Don't stop…' I said as he continued. We moved together, and after some minutes we kept increasing in rhythms and moved together. We moaned, he moved gently yet powerfully. I was feeling something different.

'Sera… are you going to come?' He asked me while I stared at him.

'What… what do you mean?'

'Do you feel like you need to pee?' He asked again while I nodded. He smiled as he continued faster. 'Sera… let go…' He smiled as I obeyed him immediately and let myself crumble underneath him. 'Yes… yes… that's it…' He smiled as he pushed harder and stilled. He collapsed on top of me and we laid there panting heavily.

'That was…' I started trying to catch my breath.

'Amazing…' We said together as he kissed me again and exited me gently. 'Are you ok baby?'

'Never been better…'

'Are you sure?'

'Carter!'

'Ok… ok… He smiled as he lifted me off and took me under the covers. He pulled me to his chest and hugged me towards him. 'Now let's sleep… we have to be at the airport at 6am… we have 4 hours to rest…' He smiled as he kissed me again while I moaned. 'Mhmm… somebody seems to want more…'

'Of course I do…' I smiled naughtily.

'My my Sera Grey Brosnan…' He smiled as he pulled me on top of him. 'Do you think you can keep up with me?'

'We can only try…' I challenged.

'You always cease to amaze me baby…' He said again as we started kissing again.
