"We have to thank Martha again for this," you say, beaming up at the night sky. You can actually see the stars from here, a miracle in itself.
"We will. This place is incredible."
You shift your gaze to your fiancé who's eyes pour deeper into you under this moonlight, so deep they almost kiss your heart. You hold your hand out to him, lip between your teeth because you want nothing more than to share this moment with him, bask in revelation that this is where you marry him. This is where you marry the love of your life.
You have butterflies now.
He slides his warm palm up and down your spine before letting it rest across your shoulders, his lips flirting at the tip of your ear, his breath tickling your skin causing goosebumps to rise.
The butterflies multiply.
"I can picture it now, you know?" he says, looking out across the rooftop.
"Really?" The smile never leaves your face and he's smiling too, his cheeks pink, skin glowing under the beautiful, starry night sky.
"You'll come in over there by the door wearing your dress, no doubt taking my breath away, and I'll be waiting for you, right here," he says, pointing to the ground. "To give my life to you. And God, Kate, I cannot wait to be married to-"
You shut him up with a kiss, his mouth soft and sweet, full of love.
"Why can't our wedding be tomorrow?"
He kisses you again, matching grins, and equal joy.
"Know what we can do right now?"
"What?" you say, following his lead when he pulls you to the center of the rooftop.
He pulls out his phone. "We can dance to our song."
You laugh, resting your head in his neck, listening to the beat of his heart as you sway back and forth, the spellbinding melody of In My Veins playing in the air.
Nothing could ever be more perfect, with the stars above you and the world at your feet.
