HONOURLY BOUND

Chapter 43

At last. The time has come. "You may bring in the bride now." I heard it. Yes. That was me. The bride. The beautiful bride. My gown was getting fixed  when Lia and Lilly stood in front of me while Cassie and Stacie stood at the back of me. Mr. Levi started counting and on three, the huge door sprang free revealing us. I slowly opened my eyes and everyone was looking. Of course they would look.

My eyes shifted to the big crowd and I knew people came than we'd expected. Ms. Angelina waved at me and I smiled. I caught Ray and Maddison grinning widely at me. I couldn't help smiling. I wasn't sure if it was because today was my wedding or the fact that people I knew came. But I'm sure it was the wedding.

My gaze shifted to my one and only. My love. My heart. Kelvin Spencer Wigglesworth, the man who has captured my heart as his. He looked like himself. Oozing confidence, charisma, beauty and love. He locked eyes at me and trust me, I couldn't look anywhere else than those beautiful eyes of his. I steadily took my steps one after the other. The compliments were flowing, those who had to cry were crying and those clapping were clapping.

Kelvin couldn't help but blink away his tears. He looked up, blinking nonstop only to stop his tears. I always wanted to see my husband cry tears of joy on my wedding day but goodness, his tears were making me teary as well. I had to take deep breaths to stop tears from flowing. My makeup can't ruin before the wedding even start.

As I took the two steps in front of me onto the alter, Kelvin extended his beautiful white hand to me, giving me his smile I always melt for. He looked me in the eyes few seconds not saying anything. Then he whispered "thank you." Looking into his eyes this day, made me feel honoured. He never looked away from me, he kept smiling and never stooped whispering thank you.

When it was time to take our vows, I said mine. I said the vows I prepared myself. After my vows, I slipped on his ring on his finger. Kelvin asked for a microphone when he was given the opportunity to say his vows.I knew he wanted to say his own vows. He never told me but I just knew it. When the microphone was held at his lips, he took my hands into his and I couldn't help but smile at him.

"I know you are aware I started writing this months ago because you know me very well but the words I write changes every single day I spent time with you. You keep getting better and better for me and I kept writing better things about you. I feel overwhelming, happy and proud that I'm standing here, in front of you, holding you in my hands. Through the passing years, we have faced so many obstacles, some we thought we couldn't carry and some we easily overcame. You never gave up on me but rather you helped built the strong foundation for our relationship. You have showed me your unwavering love, constant support and silent strength. I was instantly drawn to you the day I met you in school and I am now. Your warm and inviting eyes and your magnetic smiles just draws me closer and closer to you, immediately puts me at ease and brightens my entire day. You made me the best version of the person I am today. If I am to thank you for everything, all the time in the world wouldn't be enough to do so. But thank you for always supporting and loving me unconditionally, thank you for embracing all the parts that makes me me, thank you for being here today with me and thank you for the love, respect and support you'll still show me. I promise to always put you first, I promise to love you forever. Our journey as a family has only just begun and I can't wait to see what the future holds for us. Gianna Blake, you are the person I choose to spend the rest of my life with. I choose you in 2022, I choose you today and I'll continue choosing you forever. Gianna Spencer Wigglesworth."

Oh my God. My God. My God. I was a crying mess. I don't care if my makeup is ruined or anything. I just don't care anymore. All I care about is Kelvin. He slipped on my ring and as expected, it looked perfect. Just perfect. My heart flattered with joy when he called me Gianna Wigglesworth. "All invited guests, I present to you Kelvin Spencer Wigglesworth and Gianna Spencer Wigglesworth."

Oh my God. We are married. Kelvin held my lower back and pulled me closer to him and I knew what was going to happen. My first kiss with Kelvin which is technically my first kiss. He brought his hand to my cheek and raised my head to give him easy access. Then he raised his left brow as if he was asking permission and I slightly nodded. I pulled closer to him and felt it. His lips. Brushing softly against mine. I instantly closed my eyes in pleasure. It felt so right at this moment. So pure, so lovely, so perfect. First kiss on wedding day.

The clap of the people was what pulled me out of my wonderful world. A world containing Kelvin now. When Kelvin pulled away, I couldn't look into his eyes. I was so shy I knew I was blushing. "We have the blushing bride. Gianna Wigglesworth, that was one steamy kiss." Frankie shouted. On my God. He and his girlfriend are such a tease.

My arm was in Kelvin's as we walked out of the room onto the well decorated compound to take pictures. Kelvin and I posed for the camera as we were being cheered on by others. We were the perfect couples and I just knew it. My family kept hugging me because I was being sent away while Kelvins' kept hugging me to welcome me into my new family.

I looked up at my family. The joy I saw on their faces made me realise I didn't make a wrong decision. Mom was proud of me, my sisters were and so was my best friend. Nothing feels more exciting than making the right decision and I knew I made one by marrying Kelvin, the guy I knew spending the rest of my life with won't be a regret. Everything felt right. From the moment we started dating in high school, till now. We honoured our relationship, we made it our priority and went according to what was right. We were "honourly bounded". Not found in dictionary, not found anywhere, just our own unique bound. Kelvin and Gianna's unique bound.

"Mrs. Spencer Wigglesworth." I looked up and him with a smile. My Kelvin. "Yeah Kelvin. That's me." I whispered.
