Jade's
Days went by so fast that i couldn't even believe we are on this very special day, a day to start our for keeps.
I am on my way to the Midtown Loft And Terrace in Manhattan, New York City, with sally. My heart is racing right now, i am so nervous that i could even feel my blood running through my veins.
Althea was just so hands-on in everything, she got it all prepared and the only thing i did was to choose a wedding dress from the pictures she showed me. I kinda miss her though. The last time i saw her was 4 days ago, she went here in US along with miggy, batchi and wila. And i just got here yesterday with my family. Too sad ama couldn't come she was just too old for a long flight and as much as i wanted her to witness me get married to my great love, i couldn't risk her health. They've insisted that me and althea should miss each other. Kaya nauna siya, at madami pa din daw siya kailangan ayusin.
"We're here! This is it bestfriend!" Sally bursted out in excitement as we got into the front of the event place.
I then got ready and i heard the music starts to play, the entourage started to walk, and then sally was the last one before me. Eveything was white, with the touches of red and pink. Our favorite colors.
I then started to walk, mom and dada escorting me, "The Gift" was playing in instrumental, and then i saw her. Tears started to fell from my eyes, i just couldn't stop it because the flashbacks started, right from the start, when i first saw her, up to this very moment. Its like i was watching a movie with a beautiful ending. She was so stunningly beautiful, like a goddess. Our dresses was almost identical, she was waiting for me, with that killer smile. I fell inlove all over again. I then saw a crystal tear fell from her dazzling eyes. She was standing still, with batchi in her maroon tuxedo.
Mama hugged her and dada hand me over to her, and she held my cold hand. i smiled, "are you ready?" She said, "more than ready." I said and she giggled.
"Good day everyone, it is my privilage to officiate this ceremony, we are all gathered here to share in althea, and jade's joy, in this wonderful moment of their lives. By your presence, you celebrate with them the love they had, and you support their decision to commit themselves to one another for the rest of their lives. If there would be more wonderful than being loved, it would be loving. God does not make a love that is wrong. This is the union of two individuals in heart, body, mind, and spirit. And it is into this union that Althea, and Jade, come now to be joined."
"Althea,you have chosen Jade to be your life partner. Will you love and respect her? Will you be honest with her always? Will you stand by her through whatever may come?"
I turned to althea to see her answer, "i will." She said. And
"Jade, you have chosen Althea to be your life partner. Will you love and respect her? Will you be honest with her always? Will you stand by her through whatever may come?"
I lagged for a moment and just frozed looking at althea, but then i heard tha official "ehem."
"I will." I finally said, and smiled, althea then giggled. I was just too speechless of how beautiful this woman beside me.
"Okay, And do you both promise to make the necessary adjustments in your personal lives in order that you may live in a harmonious relationship together?"
"We do." We said, confidently.
"Althea and Jade, now we come to your vows. May I remind you that saying your vows are one thing but nothing is more challenging than living them day-by-day. What you promise today must be renewed tomorrow and each day that stretches out before you. Will you now please turn and face each other and hold hands, looking at each other."
We did as what we was told to so. We smiled at each other. My heart race as i melt in althea's meaningful stare.
"Jade, you may say your vows now to Althea."
"Althea. I stand here infront of you, and honestly, my heart is racing right now, i couldn't believe we are looking at the start of our forever and if this is a dream, i wouldn't want to wake up anymore, There is no place or no one else i would rather be. As you can see i'm not perfect and maybe i don't deserve someone like you whom close to as perfect. And so i vow to fall inlove with you over and over again, we may hurt, ache and cry along the way. But i would never be able to unlove you, or be able to love you anyless, I vow to love you even more each day, and you alone. I vow to share everything i have with you, I promise to be your friend and companion, I promise to love and care for you, and will always try to be worthy of your love too. I promise to always be honest with you, patient, faithful, supportive and forgiving. I vow to let this love grow, learn and dream with you all the time. I vow to cherish you, encourage you, and cheer you up when your having a bad day. I vow to honor you and be true to you always. I vow to be with you inspite and despite of everything. I vow to understand you looking passed on your mistakes and failures. I vow to stay and be strong for you in your weakest moments. I vow to stand by you always until the last second of my life, we may be all wrinkled and grey, but i would always see the beauty in you. I promise to walk with you hand in hand wherever this journey may leads us. And i vow to keep my vows for all the days of my life. I love you althea, and i will always do."
Her tears were endless when i looked at her as i said the last words on my vows.
"Your turn now Althea."
"I stand here in front of you, jade to tell you my vows, that i'll forever keep. And so i vow to cherish you, and love you unconditionally. I vow to give anything and everything. I vow to always care and stand by you, through weakness and strenght, through happiness and sorrows. I vow to live only for your happiness. You're the living proof and the reason i believed in love. So here we are. I guess its fate, we were meant to be, and destined to be. Love will change as it goes, and so i vow to only let it grow more and more from this very moment until my last breath. I promise to always make you smile and feel contented, to make you feel how important and how precious you are. And when you feel lost, and feel like theres no one else around or even care, i promise, i would still be here, i won't ever leave you. because my love is true, strong and will never be wrong. when a day comes that it felt colder, or we couldn't understand each other, i promise to forget about my pride and hear you out, i promise to be patient with you, loyal, and honest. We can always start over and over again, and i promise to never get tired of you. I vow to love only you, and keep myself devoted, i promise to tell you everything, even my mistakes. I vow to not do anything that would hurt you. I promise to comfort you, protect and support you. I promise to share laughters and tears with you, adventures, dreams, learnings, and goals, i promise to never let us lose our spark. And i promise to keep my vows, and live by it. You have me for life now jade, i'll be your friend, your sister, your partner, your companion, and your lover for keeps. And i promise you myself, i am completely yours. I love you more than you'll ever know. And i will always do."
"May i have the rings please."the officiate said. "Please repeat after me, Althea."
"I give you this ring, that you may wear it, as a symbol of the vows we have made this day. I pledge you my love, and respect, my laughter and my tears. With all that I am, I honour you."
And i also did the same.
"Now may those who wear these rings live in love all their days. Now may the love, which has brought you together, continue to grow and enrich your lives. May you continue to meet with courage any problems, which may arise to challenge you. May your relationship always be one of love and trust. May the happiness you share today be with you always. And may everything you have said and done here today become a living truth in your lives." The officiate continue.
"Jade and Althea, we have heard your promise to share your lives in marriage. We recognize and respect the covenant you have made here this day before God and each one of us as witnesses. Therefore in the honesty and sincerity of what you have said and done here today and by the power vested in me, i declare you married and partners in life...for life. You may seal your vows with a kiss."
We then turned to each other and smiled, and althea initiate the kiss, it felt a bit awkward and it was like our first kiss. Everyone then applause and smiled at us as we turned to face them, hand in hand.
We then head to reception. There's a room for us to change our clothes. Where there's a living room in it and and bathroom. There's an identical white dress ready for us. No one bothered to say anything, we were just smiling to each other, I was trying to remove my wedding dress when althea helped me unzip it and she hugged me from the back.
"You're my wife now jade." She whispered in my ear that gave me chills.
"I love you althea." I said. And i turn around facing her.
"I love you too jade." She replied, smiling. And then i kissed her. After a moment she pulled away.
"Magpa late na kaya tayo sa reception? Honeymoon muna?" she teased and i giggled.
"Althea!" I scolded. And she laughed.
"I just.. I want you. I would always do." She said, pouting at me. And my heart beat again so fast.
"I want you too lablab." I held her and put my hand around her waist, she wrapped her arms around my neck, and kissed me.
She pushed me against the wall and she held my hands up high, locking my wrists with her hands. She kissed my neck down to my collar bones. She then removed my dress completely letting it slipped through my body, i wasn't wearing a bra because the dress has its built in bra. And she kissed me again, i was already moaning in pleasure when she met my bosom, cupping it and playing it with her tounge she pulled up again, to meet my lips, and she slip her right hand inside my undies and inserted her middle finger inside of me. I was moaning loudly and already panting. She inserted another finger fast in and out motion, she bite my earlobe, and i was biting my lower lip to resist myself from moaning loud. Moments later i was already in my climax and the orgasm took my body out of this world. I was still catching my breath but she kissed me again and pulled away.
"Althea." That was all i managed to say. And she smiled.
"I love you jade. Sorry i just couldn't wait for later." She giggled.
"That's okay, i love you too my naughty wife." I chuckled and we hugged.
