Disneyland Paris

Jade's POV

"Awww look at my beautiful girl!"

I squealed once I saw my mam came in, looking absolutely stunning in the pearl neckline maxi dress

"No, look at yourself...you look amazing mam!"

"I am alright...how's my little girl doing?" She smiled

"Excited...nervous...but I am ready...for a long long time actually. How's Perrie? Is she alright?" I asked eagerly

"I haven't checked on her yet, but I am sure she is, don't worry pet" She patted my head

"I miss her so much, mam" I whined

"I know..." She pulled me into a hug

"You are going to see her very soon, love" She cooed and kissed my head

I know she is right but still, I miss her like crazy and I wasn't exaggerating one bit. I haven't seen her since yesterday morning because Jesy and her family came to our room to take her away, as we all stayed in the same hotel at Disneyland Paris, where our wedding will be held. We did expect it to happen though, as they said it's bad luck for us to see each other before the wedding, but that doesn't mean we were okay with it and there weren't protests and waterworks...she was taken away after we shared one passionate kiss, and I would never forget the last thing she promised me before she was dragged out of the room...

I promise this is the last time we would ever be apart! Baby, I love you so much and I don't want a second away from you ever again!

I remembered I was bawling my eyes out after hearing this, a slight part being the sadness and torture of not able to see her until the ceremony, but the majority was the euphoria and longing for spending every second of our lives together afterwards...when I officially become her wife

Leigh Anne and my family stayed with me, while Jesy and her family stayed with her, and they spent the day with us at Disneyland to keep us company but made sure our paths didn't cross at all so there would be zero chance we could meet each other, not even a glimpse...but somehow they forgot to take our phones away, so I was elated when I received a text from her, and I got to say she is so good at sweet-talk even via texts

You should be standing next to me, not her

I giggled lightheartedly at her text and the picture of her and Caitlin standing next to a girl dressed as Princess Jasmine she sent me, clearly gutted about me not getting her job as I once had applied for it when I was younger. I did feel bitter...but not anymore

It's alright, babe. I don't want to be anyone's Princess Jasmine...I only want to be yours

Usually I would be embarrassed to write a text like this, but not when it was for her though. Not even a minute later, I got a reply from her

That's even better:D And I am your Aladdin, only yours, baby

She just know exactly what I love to hear. Just when I thought I might be able to tolerate her absence by reading those sweet texts, Leigh Anne had to take my phone away, just because Jesy called her to after she caught my baby texting, and cut off the only contact we had left...so even though I was spending the rest of the day in Disneyland, which supposed to be the happiest place on earth, I wasn't happy...

Not without her presence

I looked for the time, 10:16 am

So it has been 24 hours and 42 minutes since we were apart

And 14 minutes until we reunite and move on to the next chapter of our lives...

As one

"I can't wait to marry her, mam" I burst out, smiled dreamily at the thought of my soon-to-be wife.

"I can't wait for you to marry her too...." She trailed off, pulled away slightly to cup my cheeks

"You have found the right one, pet...she is going to make you so happy, I just knew it" She flashed me a genuine smile, and I could see tears started to form in her eyes

"Aw don't cry, mam" I gasped

"I am just too happy...you don't know how long I have been waiting for this day" She chuckled

"Of course I know! You and Debbie have been talking about it ever since we told you we are dating, never stop teasing us about it" I rolled my eyes playfully

"Don't lie to me and say you haven't thought about it before you two got together, Debbie told me Perrie admitted she does..." She raised a questioning brow

".....O-Okay you win, mam! Why you two always know us better than ourselves?!" I sighed

"Because we are your mams, girls" She said proudly

"Of course you ar-"

"Auntie Jade!"

I stopped and turned to see an overjoyed baby Karl sprinted into the room, I leaned down and opened my arms as he attacked me with a hug

"You look really nice, Karl"

I giggled and kissed his head, nodding in approval at how smart he looked in his tiny black suit, with a cute little bow tie around his neck.

"Hey kid, beware of your auntie's dress! It's expensive!" Jesy screamed as she soon appeared at the door, the bridesmaid dress showed off her cleavage beautifully

"It's alright, Jes."

I stood up to show her my dress was intact, she sighed in relief and mumbled a 'Thank god' and emitted a growl when baby Karl stuck his tongue out mischievously

"Why are you here little boy?" I smiled

"I come here to tell you Auntie Perrie had promised me she will give you a happily ever after, just like every princess does, so you don't need to worry about marrying her" I giggled at how serious his tone was

"Oh did she?!" I feigned to be in surprise, but it didn't mean I wasn't swooned over those honeyed words

"He even threatened Perrie if she doesn't do that, he will never speak to her again" Jesy added, which he nodded proudly to confirm her words

"I am sure she will never break her promise because of you, so thank you, Karl" I joked and pecked his cheek.

"I love you Auntie Jade!" He giggled and kissed me on the cheek

"Love you too" I cooed and patted his head

"How's Pez, Jesy? I asked Leigh to go check on her but she hasn't come back yet...is there something wrong?" I nibbled my lip nervously. Gosh I hope not

"There is definitely something wrong with her h-

"WHAT! Oh my god! How is she?! I have to go se-"

My heart had dropped to the ground and my feet were already moving towards the door, but Jesy stopped me by blocking my way

"Move Jesy! I don't care about the bad luck. I have to see her! I have to know if she is ok-"

"Jade, she is okay, sh-"

"Gosh what if she is in pain...I have to be there for her! Sh-"

"Jade stop! Listen to me!"

I whimpered when she shook my shoulders to get my attention, I looked at her with tears in my eyes, threatening to come out as I was afraid of what she will say next

Please. Please don't let anything bad happens to her...she doesn't deserve it....

"God I didn't mean to scare you like this, Jade! Perrie is gonna kill me if she knows...thank god the mascara is waterproof...Calm down babe, she is alright, well, indeed" Jesy consoled me and carefully wiped the unshed tears with her thumb

"B-But you said t-there is something wrong?"

I sobbed, my mam gave me a sympathetic smile and placed her hand on my back, slowly rubbing it to soothe me, while baby Karl wrapping his arm around my legs protectively and looked up at me attentively.

"What I was going to say is, there is something wrong with her head, her HEAD, which is nothing new really 'cause she is a dumb ass...she just won't shut up."

"W-What?! That's it?!" My eyes widened in disbelief

"Yeah..."

"I thought something horrible happened to her, Jes!" I took a few deep breaths to calm myself down, thank god she is well.

"Jesy, don't scare Jade like that...you made me worried too" Mam sighed in relief and kissed my head

"You made Auntie Jade cry!" Karl scolded at her

"It's not my fuc- f-fault you won't let me finish and went straight into panic mode! What I was trying to say is she keeps moping around, saying she has to see you because it has been forever since she last saw you..What a fu...l-lie! You two just saw each other yesterday morning and I was there! I am fr...t-tired at her bullshits so I asked Leigh to deal with her instead"

She explained, I giggled at her trying to correct her words every time she nearly swore, not wanting baby Karl to hear the bad words, and I couldn't stop a sheepish grin from creeping up on my face

She misses me too

"This one here is just the same" Mam pointed at me with a smirk on her face

"Not you too!" Jesy grimaced

"How can I not?! It has been so long..." I mumbled

"It's just one fucking day!"

"Language! There is a kid here" Mam scolded

"Okay I am done! I am going to check on my Reggie bear before the ceremony begin, not really trusting Jonnie to look after him..."

"Congratulations, Poopy"

She whispered and kissed my head before walking out the door. I was amused at her soft side that had made an appearance and her protectiveness over her dog, still found it hard she had got one herself, remembering how uninterested she seems before...which now make me the only one not having a puppy of my own...but it doesn't really matter because Perrie has got a few, and what's hers are mines too, right?

"I am going too! I want to play with Hatchi!" Karl said excitedly, let go of me and quickly followed Jesy out the door

"Why you keep following me around, kid!"

"I am not! You are the one following me first!"

"Because I have to make sure you were not ruining your auntie's dress!"

"I didn't!"

"You are lucky you didn't!"

I couldn't help but laughed at their banters. I won't be surprised if Jesy is going to take an interest in kids too...and she is going to be a great mam

"Someone needs to teach that girl how to speak properly" Mam joked, rolling her eyes

"No one can, 'cause she won't listen" I chuckled

"That's sadly the truth...Now let me help to fix the mess she made" I stood still and let my mam to reapply some mascara on my eyes, smiled and murmured a 'thank you' when she was done.

"Hmm...why is your engagement ring still here, honey?" She raised my left hand and tapped on my ring finger

"Ah, I almost forgot!"

I carefully took the ring off, my lips curved up when I saw the small words that were carved inside. It took me long enough to uncover the secret, but I am glad I did...and it's totally by accident...

"Ah! Come here, baby!" I squealed, waving to get my fiancé's attention

"Yes, babe?" Perrie wrapped an arm around me and pecked my cheek

"How about this one?! The sapphire reminds me of your eyes, although yours are more beautiful" I pointed at the ring, admiring the sparkles in those blue eyes when she inspected it

"I love it too...but baba, you don't have blue eyes..." She frowned

"I want something that reminisce you too..." She looked at me with a cute pout

"Awww" I pressed my lips on her, smiled when the pout disappeared and replaced by a grin

"Excuse me?"

"Yes, miss?" A sales lady that looked around our age came to us, I looked at her name tag

"Hello Nicole. We really like this one for our wedding rings...but can we change the sapphire into other stone for one of them?" I queried

"Yes, we can. What stone would you like, miss?"

"Do you have any brown stone?" Perrie asked eagerly

"We have a few actually..."

Nicole giggled and pulled out a catalogue under the table to show us what each of the stone looks like, to Perrie actually, as I just stood there, supporting my head with my left hand while swooning over the serious look on my fiancé's face as she scrutinized each stone intently and occasionally asked for a close look at the real stone. However, the dopey smile slowly left my face when I spotted the frustration and disappointment in her blue eyes, it seems she couldn't find the right one.

I grabbed her left hand and laced our fingers together, flashed her a smile when our eyes met, brushing my thumb to smooth her, and it worked as a wide smile soon crept up on her face, her soft lips pressed on mine for seconds before she pulled away and said another 'no' to Nicole

"Mmm...oh what about this...this is a brown Jade an-"

"THERE IS?! Where?! Let me see it!"

I giggled and mumbled a 'sorry' to Nicole as she looked completely startled by Perrie's sudden excitement. She chuckled and shook her head understandably, then showed Perrie the stones in all the different brown colour.

"Found one! This one please! " She exclaimed excitedly and pointed at one right away

"Well my eyes are right here you know...you sure you don't have to look at them to find a match? Just to be certain you know?" I teased, knowing well she has my eyes engraved in her head already, same goes for me

She beamed and shook her head confidently, refused to look my way when I leaned my head in and batted my eyelashes deliberately

"Someone is cocky"

I whispered loudly to Nicole, covering my mouth with one hand to feign that I didn't want the blonde to hear me, who rolled her eyes playfully at my act

Nicole laughed at our charade and carefully picked up the chosen gemstone with a clip, her mouth widened when she looked at me

"Wow...this really looks like your eyes"

"Really?" She nodded and placed the stone on a glass plate

"To be fair, I could never find a perfect match because nothing could compare to your eyes, but it is the closest I could find"

Her sapphire eyes finally met mine, and there is this charming smile on her face that never fail to drive me crazy, and before I knew, my lips were already on her, kissing her fervidly.

"Sorry"

I quickly apologized to Nicole once we pulled away, who unfortunately had to witness the whole thing.

"It's alright. You two make a very cute couple" She chuckled

"Thank you" I smiled bashfully, while Perrie flashed her a toothy grin

"May I know what size your ring finger is? Or do you want a measure?" She asked

"Oh we have our engagement rings with us, just the same size is alright. The sapphire one is for me, and the brown one is for her..."

I let go of her hand to take the ring off, carefully as it is one of the most precious thing I have, I rarely took it off ever since she put it on me the first time, just like the necklace she gave me on our anniversary, wanting her heart to be with me all the time.

I was about to put it on the table when I noticed something inside my ring, I turned it to read the words

'You stole my heart the first time we met, Jade Thirlwall, and I don't ever want it back'

My eyes widened in shocked, why didn't she tell me this engraved words?

I placed my ring next to hers, taking a closer look at hers to see if there is any carved word too...

But no, there is nothing on it

I frowned. It shouldn't be empty, not when she imprinted something so special on mine...

"You alright, baba?"

I turned to see her looked at me concernedly, I must have zoned out for a bit too long. I put down the ring and put on a smile, shaking my head to assure her. I really want to ask her about it, but I had a better way to get my answer

"Nothing babe, just thinking about food because I am a bit hungry" I giggled, not entirely lying because it has been hours since we ate

"Actually, I am too..." She whined, rubbing at her stomach

"You should tell me you need to eat, baby" I cooed

"Getting our wedding rings are more important" She shrugged

"You, are the most important, silly" I pecked her cheek, earning a goofy smile from my blonde

"How about you go order some food and get us a seat at Nando's? I will join you after paying for the bill"

"I can pay f-"

"No. You bought our engagement rings already, I will pay this time. I thought we have an agreement on this already?!" I raised a brow, remembered clearly I talked her out of it. Believe me when I said it was HARD, she said it's in her nature to spoil me.

Gosh, I love her so much.

"Alright" She sighed

"Now go eat something, you must be starving" I smiled

"Okay...but don't take too long, I will miss your beautiful face" She caressed my cheek

"It won't take long, I promise"

I leaned in to connect our lips, and when they parted, I removed her hand off my face and took it in my hand, giving it a squeeze

"I love you"

"I love you too"

She beamed and kissed my lips again, only pulled away reluctantly when I pushed her away and urged her to eat, and she won't leave the store until I blew her a kiss.

"I am really sorry you have to see this...sometimes we forget there are people around" I laughed as I realized Nicole had to endure our PDA again

"Don't be...It's cute" She chuckled

"You really think so?! Because even one of our closest friend can't stand us, saying we always make her sick and wants to throw up" I rolled my eyes playfully

"I am sure she is joking..." She laughed

"She better be!"

Nicole chortled at my 'huge' reaction. I grinned as I watched her having a hard time to calm herself down, delighted and even slightly proud at my sense of humour could get to someone so much

"Actually I long for a love like this, not caring about anybody else but just each other. You two are so courageous, and I wish I could do the same" She gave me a weak smile, and somehow I had a feeling what caused the pain and sadness in her eyes, I had seen it before....

"You could, maybe you think you aren't bold enough right now, but when you find the right one, that person will give you the courage you need"

"How do I know I find the right one?" She muttered

"You will know...because when you do, you will find yourself fearless and willing to do anything for that person, and you will no longer give a fuck about anything in the world but only her"

She gasped at my last word, but she remained silent and showed no intention to correct my wording, so I guessed my intuition was right.

"And someday you two might end up just like us" I winked. Her mouth relaxed and slowly curled up

"I look forward to that day" She flashed me a genuine smile this time

"Don't look forward to that, girl. We are shameless and audacious, not a role model at all" I shook my head in disapproval, making her burst out into laughter again

"You are really funny" She chuckled and wiped the tears off her eyes

"Thank you..." I beamed and gave her a bow

"And my fiancé always thinks she is funnier than me" I grimaced

"I am sure she is to-Oh my god! I shouldn't be holding you up, she is waiting for you! Let me get you the bill!"

"Don't worry, it's nice talking to you, Nicole. And actually, I need to ask if you could help me with one more thing..."

I told her what I wanted her to imprint on Perrie's engagement ring, using the same font and size of carving as the one on mine, that's when she figured out who we are and why Perrie was freaking out earlier when she introduced the brown Jade, and she is also smart enough to figure out the name of that one idiotic friend I mentioned before is called Jesy Nelson

"Welcome back, miss"

"Stop calling me miss, Nicole. I thought we are friends" I placed a hand on my chest, pretended to be hurt by her words.

"Sorry, Jade...and it's nice to see you again, Perrie"

"Ahhh I am busted... and I thought I could change my job to be an undercover agent" She let out a dramatic sigh

"Like hell you are! How dare you thought of leaving Little Mix" I scolded

"Aw princess I was only joking...you know I would never"

She cooed and wrapped her arms around me from the back. Noticed my fake annoyed face remained, she tightened her grip and buried her face at the crook of my neck, blowing raspberry until I couldn't keep up with my act and giggled at her extremely adorable gesture.

"You are lucky you are cute" I pinched her nose

"You are the cutest though, my cutie pie" She cooed and kissed my cheek, painting it with a shade of red.

"Now you look even cuter when you blush, how is that possible?!" She gasped and poked my cheek

"Shut up you"

I hissed and smacked her hand away, trying my hardest to will away my silly grin or the stupid blush on my face but failed miserably. Me and Nicole exchanged a knowingly glance, and I was giving her a face saying 'Is that what you want?', she giggled and nodded her head immediately, not even needed seconds to think...

I hope her wish will comes true

Then I noticed the tiny red box on the desk and our engagement rings next to it. I picked up the box and slowly opened the lid, squealing at the sight

"Awww aren't they beautiful, baby?!"

I watched her face gleamed with delight, blue eyes twinkling while marvelling at our wedding rings

"They are..." She trailed off, turning her head to meet my gaze

"But not as beautiful as you....not by a mile" She murmured in pure sincerity

"Stop it!" I don't think the tint on my face could be darkened, my cheeks were probably redder than the box itself

"Can't, my goddess"

"Do you have tape here? Or glue maybe? A stapler also works too, I just need something to stop her from making any sound, please?" I turned to Nicole for help, but she laughed and shook her head, mumbling a 'sorry'

"Can't handle the truth huh? Alright...actually, there is one thing you can do...then my lips will be sealed" She smirked

"What is it?"

"You should know, baby" She winked and licked her lips cheekily

"I don't know wh-"

Oh. I think I do know...

She wants me to seal it with a kiss

This impudent bastard

I won't give in to her so easily, and I knew the perfect topic to distract her...I slowly put the box down and picked up my engagement ring

"Why didn't you tell me there is something inside when you gave me the ring?" I queried, removing her right arm from my torso and placed it on her palm

"Huh?"

Her brows knitted in confusion. She carefully clenched the ring in between her thumb and pointer finger and held it up to her face, her eyes widened when she finally observe the little engraved words inside

"Oh...this! I was too ecstatic about you saying 'yes' to me I forgot to mention it...and after I put the ring on you, I don't know when to tell you because you wear it 24/7 and seldom take it off...so I think I would just tell you when you find out about it...which I guess is now" She shrugged

"You can just tell me anytime you want, you dork" I giggled

"It's more fun this way isn't it? And you already known I fall in love with you the first time I saw you, babe. Besides...." She paused and took my left hand, slid it into my ring finger delicately

"I love to see you wearing it...reminds me that you are mine" She beamed at me.

"I am always yours, silly" I whispered, raising my hand to caress her cheek

"I want everybody to know it!" She said proudly

"Possessive huh?"

"And you are not?" She grinned and held out her left hand

"It's only fair I am too, you know..."

I mumbled, reaching for her engagement ring, but instead of putting it on her ring finger, I turned her hand and put the ring on the palm of her hand. She gave me a baffled look

"I found it kinda cute so I thought I might do the same..."

I shrugged, pretending it was not a big deal, when deep inside I was nervous to see her reaction. Her mouth ajar at my words, her eyes soon averted to the ring, as she lifted her hand to have a closer look. I saw her lips slowly moving as she read out the words, the complete opposite to my frantic heartbeat.

"Jade..."

Her captivating blue eyes were now peering at me and trying to drown me with all those emotion that was harboured in them

"It...it's nothing new...l-like you said, I-I have told you y-"

She cut off my rambling by sealing my lips with hers, the sweet taste of her lips just like the words she whispered into my ear and the thing she did for me...or should I said it tastes just like her

She might think of me as a thief that stole her heart

But to me, she is the hero that rescue mine

'You saved my heart the first time we met, Perrie Edwards, and I will keep yours safe forever'

I put the engagement ring on my middle finger and slowly rubbing my now empty ring finger, smiling like a Cheshire Cat when I thought of her sliding the wedding ring into it very soon.

Then I thought about Nicole, the sales lady who was nice and kind to us and didn't bother by our PDA at all. A few months after our encounter, she sent me a tweet to thank me for what I said that day, and Perrie also as seeing us so in love gave her hope and determination, and the best part was she told us she had found the one and had proudly come out to her family and friends with the help of her girlfriend, Phoebe.

Both of them are here today, actually, since we invited them and gladly they said yes. The fact that they are together because of us...we are honored, flattered even, that's why we wanted them at our wedding, to let them know it could be them standing at the altar one day, and we would love to attend their wedding if they want us there, we might bring our kids with us even...

"I come to get my baby girl..." A deep male voice interrupted my daydream, I looked up to see my dad at the door.

"Dad!" I yelped and hugged him

"You look very beautiful, Jade" He smiled once we pulled away

"That's what I told her" Mam chuckled

"Thanks, you look really handsome too, dad" I laughed when he pulled out a cocky face

"It's about time...you ready to go, princess?" He cooed and offered me his arm. I nodded, gave him a peck on the cheek as we linked arms

"Hold on!"

Mam picked up the veil on the table and placed it over my head delicately, adjusting it for a few times until a satisfied smile appeared on her face, she then handed me the bouquet.

"Thanks mam."

I took it and smiled bashfully, laughed at how forgetful I was because of my eagerness to marry the love of my life

"You are lucky to have me as your mam. Now go with your dad, I will be watching you at the front row"

She turned us around and softly pushed us out the door, whispering something into my ears before she left

"She is gonna be drooling all over you once you step on the aisle, love"

I giggled as I could imagine exactly how her facial expression would be like...blue eyes brimming with love and affection while her mouth was wide-opening with shock and admiration, a look I am all-too-familiar-with because she always looks at me like that, even if I just woke up and looked absolutely horrible...

Maybe Jesy was right...there is really something wrong with this woman...

But it's something so perfectly wrong that made me so head over heels for her

---------------

Perrie's POV

"Stop walking around, Perrie!"

Leigh scolded at me for the umpteenth times since she came into my dressing room, repeating what Jesy said but in a much nicer way without any swear words

"How long do I have to wait so I could see her?! I miss her so much my heart hurts!" I whined and continued pacing up and down, hoping time would just move faster like my feet did.

"Stop being a grumpy child! You are going to be someone's wife very soon. Grow up for goodness's sake!"

"Not someone, but Jade Thirlwall's wife" I corrected her, smiled goofily at how the last three words sound so right, and it will become a fact very soon.

"I know, you idiot"

Leigh rolled her eyes, but a smile quickly appeared on her face as she approached me, placing her hands on my shoulders

"And I am really happy for you two" Her smile turned into a huge grin as she squeezed my shoulders, which I mirrored immediately

"Where is my lovely daughter?!"

Hearing the rare endearment from my mom, I turned and raised an eyebrow at her confusedly when she appeared at the doorway

"Oh! Here you are!"

She squealed and pulled me into a hug, tighter than usual that literally knocked the air out of my lungs, but luckily she pulled away right away, so I don't have to be the first to be killed by my mother on my own wedding

"Oh my god I am sorry I got too excited! You alright, my dear?"

She apologized and rubbed my back, I nodded and took some deep breaths, while Leigh was not helping at all and just stood there trying to contain her giggles

"What got you so excited?" I asked once I steadied my breathing

"Oh! I come to bring you out! It's time for the ceremony!" She clapped her hands excitedly

"FINALLY!"

I shrieked, my feet already moving in fast speed but a hand pulled me back before I could make my way out the door

"Slow down tiger! Let me check on you one last time, don't wanna scare Jade away do we?"

I gasped and shook my head feverishly, standing still to let my mom and Leigh inspected me from head to toe. They helped me to reapply some makeup, to fix my hair and adjust my dress to make sure I looked more than presentable, they shared a smile once they were done

"You look amazing, Pez" Leigh nodded at me in approval

"Of course she does, she is my daughter" Mom said proudly and patted my shoulder, I rolled my eyes playfully making Leigh laughed

"Thank you. You too, Lee-Lee" I smiled after smoothing the small fold on the bottom of her bridesmaid dress

"Let's go get your girl!" Mom exclaimed.

They grabbed each of my hand and led me out the door, we all wearing a huge grin on our faces, mine being the biggest

My Jadey. My baby. My wife. I can't wait to see you

I stood at the end of the aisle, smiled at all the happy faces in the audience, then at the bridesmaids who were at the sides, including Leigh Anne and Jesy, our maids of honor, who immediately returned with a toothy grin, and also at the few cameras that will be recording and broadcasting the ceremony live through our facebook page, so our fans could also participate in this. We are grateful for their support, especially those who helped in my proposal.

I looked around and admired at how well-decorated the venue was, just as dreamy and fairytale like we wanted it to be. I still remembered the moment when I proposed the idea of having our wedding inside the Sleeping Beauty Castle at Disneyland Paris to her...she was sobbing in my arms, saying it's her dream wedding since she was a child. I am not surprised at all...she loves Disney and she is a princess, my princess, and she deserves the best, so it really is a no-brainer for me when I happened to be another huge Disney fan, and needlessly to say, a hopeless romantic

I could feel my legs slightly shaking at the thought of my princess will soon appear at the doorway. I had no clue what Jade's dress is, and neither does she, since Jesy and Leigh thought it was an excellent idea to surprise us on our big day, and they threatened us not to expose the secret to each other after we tried on our dresses separately, which we obviously obeyed.

That's why we haven't thought of doing pre-wedding shot in the first place, due to the fact that we couldn't reveal our dresses before the wedding, but we changed our mind eventually. We stayed in Japan after the Popspring Festival to do the shot, which we dressed in our mom's wedding dresses and posed under the cherry blossoms, and it's magical.

It was an abrupt idea though. The day after we finished the show, we stayed behind to tour around for a few days because Japan has always been a special place to us. I remembered holding Jade's hand and walking through this one park, the scene had us both in awe as we were surrounded by all these cherry blossoms and it was breathtaking. When Jade asked me to take a picture of her, I got a great shot easily because she is an art and I am a pretty preternatural photographer said by the goddess herself, and when I looked at the casual yet striking photo, I couldn't help but wonder how extraordinary she would look in a wedding dress. What surprised me the most was when I burst out this hasty thought to her, she wrapped her arms around my neck and stared at me with this shy dazzling smile on her face that instantly got me all swooned and weak, so I had to hold tight on her petite body to prevent myself from passing out, she murmured a 'yes' before covering my lips with her own.

At that moment, I feel like there was a full bloom of cherry blossoms inside my body

We then contacted our translator in Japan for help, hoping she could find us two wedding dresses and a professional team for the photoshoots. The latter was not a problem as she quickly found us a team that had worked for other artists in Japan. Not only do they take outstanding wedding photos, they are also good at bending the photos with optical illusion which was definitely something Jade and I would love to try. They are usually hard to book but luckily for us, they have a few days available the next week, the only tiny issue was they don't know English but our translator was kind enough to help us. The main problem was the dresses, we couldn't fit in any of the dress that was supposed to be tailor-made for Japanese, and if we were to make one for ourselves, it would take more than a week so we would have to look for a new team for photoshoots, and we really didn't want that...

That night we called our moms for a chat like we always do, they were thrilled about us having our pre-wedding photos taken, and they solved our problem right away by lending their own wedding dresses to us, saying they only needed a day or two to tailor them to our sizes and they will mail us the dresses right away. We were over the moon, we knew we look amazing in their dresses because we had tried them on before, since we had thought about wearing them at our wedding, however, it was not coherent to our dreamy theme so we eventually decided to look for something else as we have already booked the venue and finalized the design at that time, they were understandable but we still noticed their disappointment, and with us wearing them for our pre-wedding shot, I knew it would make them just as happy as we are. We were right because after we showed them the pictures, they almost framed every single one and put them up in any available space inside the houses, and only stopped when we told them to leave some for our wedding photos.

The photos are beautiful, and some of them are really fun and creative. My favorite would have to be the one Jade pulling out her best Gail Platt face, a devilish smirk on her face and her hand was out like a claw, which was where I was in so it's like I was being trapped inside, and I was gazing at her like a lovesick fool (not that I could control myself not to). I love it because it was my idea as it represents the truth most of the time, despite Jade's disagreement. Jesy and Leigh were on my side as they laughed about me being so whipped and love to be wrapped around by Jade's little fingers, which I couldn't really argue.

Jade's favourite is my least though, it's one that I paid no attention at all as I thought we were taking a break, so I was having my head rested on her shoulder, taking a nap with my arms around her. But that's not the worst, they had to capture the moment when I was yawning, my mouth was so big like I could swallow a whole car, I looked awful I really thought Jade was joking when she said she loves it, but she is not, she said I look so cute like a baby. I found it hard to believe but I knew she was telling the truth because in that photo I could see how much adoration held in those brown eyes when she gazed at me, and that adorable smile I love so much...she still loves me even if I was at my worst. Our two idiot friends absolutely love it as they teased me about my love for sleep, that I could fall asleep even when I was doing an important photo shoot, despite I reiterated I didn't know they were shooting at that time. If Jade doesn't look so damn gorgeous in it, I would have deleted it the first time I saw it

I was pulled out of my thought by the sound of music, as the string quartet started playing 'I See The Light' from 'Tangled', a song we sang along everytime we watched the movie, and since it is a movie we have watched for a million times, being one of Jade's favourite, it's not just a song to us, it's a song of memory...our memories

We cuddled on the couch and fed each other popcorns

We tried to outsing each other for fun at first but soon got carried away with the lyrics and ended up crashing our lips together

We reversed the movie and watched it again because we spent most of the time making out, but we barely watch the whole movie because we were going at it again

I started to get a bit emotional with all the flashbacks, and as the music continued to play, it got harder and harder for me to hold back my tears, and I knew I will lose it the moment I see her.

My breath hitched when I heard footstep approaching, and it got louder and clearer as time goes time, just like the beating of my heart. I had imagined how she looks like in so many different dresses, but that still didn't help to mentally prepare myself when I finally saw her

Fuck. She is so perfect...

No. Not even 'perfect' can do her justice

I instantaneously doubted if I am good enough for her, but she assured me I am when her cameral eyes met mine, as they slowly widened with astonishment and affection, mirroring my own expression, and there is no mistaking the love and admiration that were brimming in those eyes.

My vision began to get blurry when she took a step towards me, and not even halfway through the aisle, tears were already rolling down my face and I was trying to quieten my sniffs but failed miserably. Either it was because my eyes couldn't handle too much of her beauty, or my heart had burst out of my chest and was now on my sleeve, I think it's both

I rubbed my eyes to clear the stupid tears that kept blocking my view, but they were unstoppable once I saw her tear-stained face. It is no secret we are contagious to each other's emotion, so whenever one of us cried, the other had to tear the gaze apart to stifle the overwhelming urge to cry. However, neither of us managed to do so at this moment because we couldn't avert our gaze from each other.

Usually, I hate anyone seeing me cry, but I don't care right now and I am not tearing my gaze away from her. I want to witness every second of her walking down the aisle and keep it in my mind for as long I could remember.

Once she was almost at the altar, she passed the bouquet to Leigh Anne, who took it with a wide grin on her face. She then took two more steps so she was standing right in front of me, my breath was taken away when I studied her flawlessly-sculptured face up close. If it wasn't for the thin veil, I would have wiped those tears off her pretty face and kissed those sweet lips of hers.

James slowly untangled himself from Jade's arm. I held out my hand, he gave me a smile and placed his daughter's hand on mine.

"Thank you"

My voice came out a bit shaky and unsteady since I was still whimpering, but I hope he knows I am beyond grateful, that he allowed me to be the one to take care of her daughter for the rest of her life, and he did as he gave me a nod. As he walked down to join the audience, I took my time to admire how amazing Jade looked from head-to-toe, and once my gaze returned to her beautiful face, my lips stretched into a wide smile when I saw her doing the same. She lifted her free hand to brush away any tears that remained on my face and when her gaze met mine, I was mesmerized by those dazzling brown eyes that looked so fondly into my own. I grabbed her hand and placed a soft kiss on the top of it before letting it go, gaining a cheer from the audience and a coy smile from my brunette.

The room erupted into laughter when the priest cleared his throat since we completely forgot about his existence, and the chortle intensified when a small 'Oops' left my mouth, causing Jade to giggle too. I grimaced, successfully turning those cute giggles into heavenly laughs, I chuckled and turned to face the priest again, he was raising a brow at me playfully.

"We gather here to unite these two young ladies in marriage, Perrie and Jade, and on behalf of them, I would like to thank you all for being here this morning, for taking the time and making the journey, and for all the effort that it takes, to not only be a part of this day but to be a part of their lives. And today, they would love to publicly declare their private devotion to each other with you all"

The priest stopped and handed Jade the microphone as it was time for our speeches. Jade will speak first because she said she won't be able to make one after hearing mine, saying she will be a crying mess for sure knowing how good I am with words, but I don't think it makes any difference anyway as we were both crying already

"P-Perrie...God this is so hard!"

She paused, her voice broke when saying my name, let out a sob as her breathing became erratic. Oh no, my baby is panicking. I immediately gave her hand a squeeze, brushing it with my thumb.

"Take a deep breath, Jade, deep breath" Jesy whispered beside me and Jade did as told, and it was working because she began to calm down

"You can do it, Jade" Leigh encouraged, her free hand rubbing her back.

Jade nodded and mumbled a 'thanks' to Lesy, then her eyes locked with mine, making my heart raced as they were filled with determination and affection

"Perrie." She smiled when her voice didn't crack this time

"Before I met you, my life was all dark and gloomy, the bullying in school made me feel like everybody hated me and that made me hate myself too. But then I met you at the park, you were so happy and lively, and hungry too because you were drooling over the sandwich my mam made me..."

She smirked as the crowd laughed at her words, most people knew about our story since we had talked about it several times in interviews. I chuckled, at the same time feeling proud of her making a joke out of her horrible past, instead of letting it to haunt her.

"You were so compassionate and caring to me even if we just met and I literally thought you were an angel that sent from heaven to rescue me. In those five days, you treated me like a princess and fixed my heart that was broken by the bullies in school. But then I was back to my old miserable self again whe-"

I lowered my head, eyes fixing the ground as a wave of agony hit me, and I felt like crying when her hand loosened mine. But soon I felt her fingers under my chin, lifting it up so our eyes met again

"I didn't mean to upset you and I don't want you to feel bad for me. It's never your fault and like I told you that night at the park, it's you that made me realize how stupid it was to self-destruct and hurt everybody who loves me..." She averted her gaze to the crowd and I supposed it was on her family

"And I want to apologize to my family. Mam and dad, Karl...I am so sorry I made you worried and I promise you all I would never do that again"

I scanned the crowd as they cheered and clapped, I could see Norma beaming at her with happy tears on her face, while James and Karl nodding at her proudly. Feeling her soft hand moved to cup my cheek, I turned to face my beautiful brunette again.

"I hate to see you suffer because of something in my past, it doesn't hurt me anymore and I don't want it to hurt you, so please, Perrie, don't think about what happened to me or what you didn't do, think about how you helped me and now I have become stronger because of that"

I covered her hand that was on my cheek and slowly rubbing it, lips curling up as I could feel the knot in my stomach started to untangle when I did what she told. Think about the positive, I felt relieved...and free, from the distress I put on myself

"I can't stop the pain inside me when I think about anything bad happens to you because it's something I fear the most, but I understand what you said and I will try to look at the bright side. And I promise you I will never leave you again and will try my hardest to protect you so you won't be hurt again" I declared, turning my head to kiss the palm her hand

"Don't you dare break the promise, baby. Everyone here and the people watching at home would be my witnesses, and we have a priest here"

A devilish grin appeared on her face as the audience chanting 'yes', and I almost laughed when the priest tried to look all serious and harsh, which I knew was all an act as we chose him because he is fun and has a good sense of humor.

"I would never, my lady" I kissed the top of her hand, taking a bow.

"Great"

She giggled as the audience went crazy again. For a moment I feel like we were at our concert, but this was even better because we are at our wedding. She was beaming at me once I straightened myself up, the glowing smile was soon replaced with a bashful one when she continued, as she looked straight into my eyes

"I have always loved Disney and wanted a love like those in the movies...but I never thought I could experience a love more dreamy and romantic than that, and meet someone that makes me feels like I am luckier than all the princesses..."

"You lit me up and gave me hope when I was at my complete worst and most vulnerable state. You told me to follow my dream when no one thinks I could, not even myself. You picked up all the pieces of my heart and put them back together when it was crumbled...Perrie Edwards, thank you for loving me and making me fall in love with you, because there is nobody else I wanna give my heart to when it's you that made it beats again, and there is nobody else I wanna be in love with when it's you that made me able to love...and there is nobody else I wanna spend my life with, when it's you that made it worth living for"

A tear rolled down her beautiful face once she finished her speech, she flashed me a loving smile before handing me the mic, but instead of taking it, I pulled her into me and started crying on her shoulder. I was trying my hardest to stifle my emotion while listening to her moving and earnest speech, and I could no longer contain myself anymore.

I am happy she thinks so highly of me

I am so happy she only wants to love me and spend her life with me

But what makes me the happiest is I didn't fail her

I am able to keep my words of making her feel loved when I asked her to be my girlfriend and I am able to fulfil my promise of making her happy when I asked her to be my wife.

Nothing could make me happier than knowing she is truly happy to be loved by me, and nobody else, not even the princes in Disney can do it better than me...

More happy tears came out at the thought of my biggest achievement, but that won't stop me from continue doing that for the rest of my life. I don't know why I am so fucking emotional today, normally I am good at restraining it. Maybe I don't want to do that anymore...maybe seeing her cry made me want to cry too ...or maybe it's her heartfelt speech that ignited the immeasurable joy inside of me...

Maybe today is supposed to be an emotional day

"I guess I did alright then"

Jade joked once I pulled away from her, I rubbed my eyes trying to dry my tears

"Alright?! Are you kidding me?!" I gasped, causing the crowd to erupt into laughter

"I know you can do better, babe" Jade grinned and passed me the mic, I took it with my slightly shaky hand

"No pressure" I rolled my eyes playfully, boisterous laughter echo off the walls

"I think the audience loves your speech already"

She cupped a hand around her ear, the audience responded by screaming 'yes', and I couldn't help but noticed most of them had been crying and still are

"You feel better now, baby?"

"I definitely feel better when knowing I am not the only one crying like a baby...Hello my dear brother, you alright there?"

I asked teasingly, knowing how much he hated people see him cry, he quickly hid his face behind his hands when all eyes were on him

"Excellent! And I will be much better if you guys stopped looking at me like that!" He whined

I laughed with the crowd, cackling when I saw Jonnie kept dodging mom when she tried to clean his face with her handkerchief that tainted with her own tears and snot. Ewww, mom. I decided to put my brother out of his misery so I cleared my throat, getting their attention especially mom, and they all went silent immediately, fixing their gaze on me as I was ready to give my speech

I decided to change it up a bit after hearing her speech, and I hope she loves it just as much as I love hers...

"Before I declare my unfathomable love to this cutie right next to me..." I turned to Jade and gave her a wink, smirked when I saw her bottom lip caught in between her teeth to contain a smile.

"I want to thank someone first...and it's my mom!" Her eyes widened when I pointed at her

"Thank you for giving birth to me, thank you for raising me well, thank you for taking me to the park that day, thank you for talking me into auditioning by bribing me with a new iPhone...if you hadn't done any of these, I might have never met the love of my life so thanks mom, you are the best!" I exclaimed, chuckling lightly when I saw her arrogant face as the crowd began to shout her name out.

"I got myself the best daughter-in-law too...so you are welcome, pet" She flipped her hair cockily

"Thank you, Debbie" Jade giggled

"Nonono...called me mom"

She corrected her. I chuckled lightly at my mom's eagerness. She is probably the happiest person today, besides Jade and I, since Jade is the perfect daughter she always wants and she can finally make it official...and I too earn myself the perfect wife of my dream

".....M-Mom"

Jade mumbled shyly, blushing when my mom let out some joyous screams. That's my cue to save her from the embarrassment

"Are you done, mom? Can I continue?" I interrupted

"Yeah yeah...go on and it better be great" She feigned to give me a threatening glare

"I will try my best" I cleared my throat

"Jade Thirlwall, the most amazing woman I have ever met in my entire life..." I turned to face the goddess, who was blushing furiously and giggling when I had yet to confess her my infinite love.

"I never understood how and why I deserve someone so perfect like you, but thanks to that beautiful speech of yours, now I do have some ideas..."

She chuckled as I placed one arm on my hip with excessive confidence, which I am sure I got that from my mom. My face quickly changed into a solemn one when I continued to speak, wanting her to know the following is all sincere and genuine

"You always praise me for the things I have done, but never once you give credit to yourself for everything you have done for me..." I smiled and grasped her hand, causing the red on her cheeks darkened as I stared into her lovely chocolate eyes

"You said I treated you well, you do too because you are the one that cook, do most of the chores and take care of my lazy arse at home. You said I rescued you, you do too because you stayed by my side and refused to let me go when I almost gave up on myself, you mended my broken soul and helped me find myself again. You said I made you happy, you do too because you made me the happiest and you never fail to do so, sometimes I feel like my heart couldn't take it all in...that it is going to explode with too much bliss. You said I love you like nobody else, you do too because you never stop loving me. You love me when I distancing myself from you and being a total bitch to you, you love me when I was at my weakest and trying to shut myself out from everybody, you love me when you found out I am the girl at the park that left you with no reason..."

"Don't say tha-" I stopped her by shaking my head

"I am not bringing it up to take the blame, I did but not anymore, I promised you I will let it go" I clarified, she smiled and gave me a nod to gesture me to continue

"I am saying all these to thank you for always loving me, good or bad, you could have stopped when I was too scared and stupid to run away from my own feeling. You could have found somebody new to fall in love with when you thought I was in love with somebody else, you could have moved on with your life without me by letting me walk out the door that day, you could have been disappointed and mad at me when you found out I let you down years ago...but you didn't. You continue to love me with your whole heart even if you thought I won't ever love you back, you confessed your feeling to me even though you were terrified for my rejection, and I knew it's very hard because I couldn't do it myself. It's because of your selflessness, patience, and bravery, today I get the chance to stand right next to you, being the one that is lucky enough to marry you."

I passed the microphone to our priest and wrapped my arms around her quivering body as she was sobbing hard, rubbing her small back when her face was buried deep into my chest.

"Thank you. I love you" I whispered and placed a lingering kiss on the top of her head

I continued to hold her until her body stopped trembling and could no longer hear her sobs, I pulled away slightly when her head moved away from my chest, admiring at her pretty face that was now covered with tears and looking into those gorgeous brown eyes that were now all puffy and red. I hummed and leaned into her touch when she cupped my cheeks

"Thank you. I love you too"

She murmured and caressed my face, and if it's not for the stupid veil that separated us, I would have kissed her with all the passion in me.

"I have got to say...you two gave the most beautiful speeches I have ever heard, and I have heard a lot I must say"

We chuckled at his words, lingering our gaze on each other for a bit longer before reluctant averting it to the priest

"Perrie and Jade, please join hands, look at one another now and remember this moment in time"

We pulled away unwillingly, but the smile never left our faces as we held hands and stared into each other's eyes, knowing it's time to say our vows to each other. We came up with one ourselves and gave it to the priest so we could repeat after him, we decided to do it this way than saying our 'I do' because we would like to say the words in absolute honesty and wanted the other to feel the true emotion in them, instead of just agreeing to what the priest said

It's not that we didn't value the 'I do' part, but Jade said we had already done that on the beach, the day when I pretended to be a priestess myself and held our own wedding. She said she wouldn't want it any other way even if it's not being done in a proper way, she wanted it to be the only 'I do' we did because it was earnest and unique, and that's the memory she wanna share with our kids and grandchildren when we are older...

There is no way I would want to change her mind when she said that...

She values everything I did...even it's something so random and capricious...she is crazy

But that's perfect because I am too...and I am crazy for her

"Perrie, please repeat after me"

"I, Perrie Edwards, take you, Jade Thirlwall, to be my beloved wife. I will be yours in times of plenty and in times of want, in times of sickness and in times of health, in times of joy and in times of sorrow, in times of failure and in times of triumph. I promise to cherish and respect you, to care and protect you, to comfort and encourage you, and stay with you, for all eternity" I gave her hand a squeeze once I finished, feeling contented to be able to put on a dazzling smile on her face

"Jade, please repeat after me"

"I, Jade Thirlwall, take you, Perrie Edwards, to be my beloved wife. I will be yours in times of plenty and in times of want, in times of sickness and in times of health, in times of joy and in times of sorrow..."

My heart continued to swell with joy as I watched her lips moved, uttering every single word so elegantly and honestly. For seconds I felt like I was still in one of my many dreams, it seems too good to be true that she was saying her vow to me, that she is willing to devote herself to me for the rest of her life...and once I realized it is really happening, it felt even more surreal to me...

I am really about to marry the woman of my dream

"...and stay with you, for all eternity"

The little squeeze from her hand brought me back to reality, where she was staring at me with an amused look. I knew that face...I have seen that enough to know I must be looking like a goofball to her right now. I flashed her a goofy smile to admit that I am, one that belongs to her, causing her smile to widen

"Please present the rings"

Jesy came to our front and slowly opened the small red box in her hand, revealing our wedding rings, Jade and I shared a loving glance as we took each other's ring

"Perrie, please place this ring on Jade's finger and repeat after me"

I took her left hand and carefully slid it into her ring finger while saying my vow

"With this ring, I wed you, and pledge you, my love, now and forever"

I looked up and gave her a bright yet assuring smile, showing her I would stick to my words no matter what, a grin plastered on her face as her eyes lit up with happiness

"Jade, please place this ring on Perrie's finger and repeat after me"

"With this ring, I wed you, and pledge you, my love, now and forever"

She held my hand and put the ring on me attentively, the corners of my lips quirking up at her frown as she put her full attention on this important task, and a satisfied smile soon shown on her face once she was done, my heart fluttered when she looked up at me with a million-dollar smile

"Perrie and Jade, you have declared your love and commitment to each other, have given and received a ring as a symbol of your promises. By the power of your love and commitment to each other, and by the power vested in me, I now pronounce you wife and wife. You may now share your first kiss as a married couple"

Now, this is the moment I have been waiting for

I lifted the veil delicately, tucked some loose strands of her ombre hair behind her ears while doing so, and as I finally able to admire her beautiful face without any hindrance, my mouth parted at the sight in front of me...

God...is she even real?

I wiped off the tears that tainted her pretty face, smiled when noticed those puffy brown eyes peering at me longingly. When my thumb made contact with the corner of her lips, her eyes fluttered closed and were hidden between those long lashes, her mouth ajar waiting to be covered by my own. I had been craving for her lips too, but at the same time, I don't want to rush it, it will be our first kiss as a married couple and I want it to be memorable.

I cupped her face and slowly caressing it, before slowly closing the gap and softly brushed my lips against her own. It was tender and chaste at first, as we just simply relishing how heavenly it felt to have our lips molded together. Upon feeling her lips pressed firmer on mine, telling me she wants more, I gently turned her head and slightly tilted my own to find the perfect angle, once I did I deepened the kiss by giving her every ounce of my being, earning a faint moan from my wife before she pulled me closer by my neck, kissing me passionately.

Neither of us wanted this kiss to end. Whenever we involuntarily parted them for split seconds to get enough air into our lungs, we will attach our lips back to each other like they were magnets, as if our lives depend on it, and we couldn't care less about anyone or anything else but each other...but by the meaning of 'we', it meant Jade and I, everybody else excluded...

"Wow this is a really looooong kiss...it has been hours..."

"Hey, there are kids here!"

"I am starving! When can I go and get some food!"

I groaned in discontent, annoyed at the impatient guests trying to cut our kiss short when we obviously hadn't kissed for long, compared to the agonizing 24 hours they separated us. Playing deaf, I held Jade's face closer and continued devouring those addicting lips. However, soon enough I felt a strong force pulling me back by my waist, not wanting to hurt Jade, I released my grip unwillingly and turned to send a dead glare at whoever parting us, and of course, it had to be Jesy.

"Don't give me that look, Perrie. I have to because you two are making everybody here uncomfortable" She scolded

"But you have no right to stop me from kissing my wife! That's our first kiss!"

"That's a lie. I am pretty sure that was the tenth kiss or more 'cause you two won't stop!"

I was about to protest but the guest was cheering for her, clearly stood on her side, I let out a howl when I saw the victorious smirk on her face

"And I thought this is our wedding..." I turned to Jade and jutted my bottom lip out

"It is...and that's a wonderful first kiss, my wife"

She pecked my lips, making my pout disappeared even though I would love her lips to stay long, but her words and the huge grin on her face was enough to bring an idiotic smile on my face

"Okay. Now that the newly-wed couple had finally shared the most lengthy kiss I have ever seen, it's time for the bride to throw the bouquet! You better get ready now if you want to get it!"

I grunted at the priest's sarcasm, but I couldn't deny it was hilarious to see him switched into his fun side now that he had helped us completed the most formal and sacred part of the ceremony. Leigh Anne gave us a hug and passed Jade the bouquet, her gaze lingered at it for seconds before retrieving her hand and went to join the crowd. Oh don't you worry, Lee-Lee

"Where is she, babe?"

Jade asked once she turned around with her back facing the crowd, I moved her body a little bit as my gaze was fixed at our target, to make it easier for her to get it. Oh yeah we have a specific someone that we want to give our bouquet to, and with Jesy stating that she isn't ready for a marriage any time soon, she let Leigh Anne to be the chosen one, and of course, she had no idea about it

Sorry everybody else...but Little Mix always comes first

"Just lightly toss it straight, she is right behind you, at the very front"

I whispered, and once Jesy, who was standing right next to Leigh, gave us a wink, I gestured my wife to toss the bouquet.

"Now, princess"

Jade gave a nice little throw just like I told her to, my lips curved up as it was landing at the right direction, and the people at the back seems didn't mind as they didn't push or tried to get to the front. However, as I thought everything would turn out to be what we wanted, someone at Leigh's right was trying to squeeze in the middle and her arm was blocking her when Leigh Anne's hand almost got it...

Damn it! Move your ass, Grace!

A hand flew to my mouth when I watched our whole plan began to crumble, thanks to Leigh Anne's friend, but then my eyes widened when I saw Leigh Anne ended up being the one that caught the bouquet, if it wasn't for Jesy's strong arms that dragged Grace away at the very last second...

"What the fuck?! I almost had it!" Grace snarled at Jesy

"Sorryaboutit...better luck next time"

Jesy shrugged like she had nothing to do with it, but didn't to well to hide her smug look once she spotted us, knowing we wouldn't have pulled this off without her, which unfortunately was the truth, and Leigh Anne must have figured out our master plan since her astonished expression quickly vanished and squinted at the three of us with a knowingly smirk. Jade and I shared a smile when we noticed how infatuated Leigh was when Andre wrapped an arm around her and stared at her fondly

Perhaps it won't take long for them to follow in our footsteps

As my eyes scanned the crowd, my lips curled into a smirk when I noticed the lingering look from a certain someone when he watched Jesy trying to shut Grace up by covering her mouth with her palm

Maybe our plan could work

https://youtu.be/aeDYx7Tkc7I

"May I?"

I smiled and reached my hand out for Jade to take when 'A Whole New World' started to play since it's our wedding recessional song, she gave me a peck on the cheek before taking my hand and lacing our fingers together. Everybody was cheering and throwing confetti at us when we were walking back down the aisle, and some had even gotten in my mouth because I was pretty sure Jonnie was aiming at it while I was singing the lyrics to my wife, and if it wasn't for the angelic giggles escaped from my wife's mouth that made me all soft and tender right away, I would have fucking killed him

Once we stepped out the Sleeping Princess Castle, we immediately met with Mickey and Minnie who was standing next to a nice and graceful carriage. As they gestured for us to get in, we attacked them with a bear hug while squealing like fangirls, they are the perfect couple after all, and I might have given Minnie a kiss on the cheek to get back at Jade as she was all over Mickey, but when she thought it was a good idea to take revenge on me by kissing him on the mouth....I decided it was enough so I picked her up in bridal style despite her protest, shut her up by kissing her feverishly so she knew I am a much better kisser than that...mouse, and she certainly realized that as the second I carried her into the carriage, she wasted no time to smash her lips on mine and continue the furious kiss, showing the world how madly and deeply in love we are as the carriage parade the whole park, while our photographers followed closely behind.

------------

"Congratulations Perrie and Jade, and thank you for inviting us"

"No problem, Nicole. We should thank you for coming" Jade smiled and gave her a hug, I did the same after they pulled away

"And you must be Phoebe! It's nice to finally meet you in person" Jade grinned and held out her hand

"It's a pleasure to meet you. Gosh, this is so surreal! I still find it hard to believe she actually knew you girls"

"I told you I wasn't joking" Nicole whined

"Sorry, babe. You know you are always joking, sometimes it's hard to know which one is the truth" Phoebe giggled and wrapped her arms around her girlfriend, who immediately softened and kissed her head. I smiled as they reminded me of Jade and I.

"Jade does too, she always thinks I was joking" I whispered to the girls, but of course my wife heard that because I made sure my voice was loud enough

"That's because you did things that a normal person won't do" She countered

"How am I not normal?" I gasped

"Remember one time you said you had bought me all the chocolate digestives in Walmart? It sounds like a joke to you, right?" She asked the two girls, who both gave her a nod

"But it isn't. We received a delivery later and it's like 10 gigantic boxes of biscuits, there are at least a hundred packets of biscuits in total and we spent like 3 months to eat them all. Is she normal to you? Who did that?" The two girls didn't say anything but they looked at me like I was from outer space

"Why did you do that though?" Nicole asked tentatively

"Because I need to make up to this one, cause I kinda made her mad by eating her biscuits w-"

"For the record, that's the tenth time she had done that" Jade cut in

"I was hungry and that's the only thing left in the house. I did ask you but you were so into that stupid book so when I heard you murmuring I thought you heard me" I protested

"No, I didn't, babe...and even if I did, I never said 'yes' right?"

"You didn't say 'no' either..."

"That doesn't mean y-"

I crashed my lips on her to stop her from talking, not that I was tired of our little argument, but she looked so fucking hot and sassy when she did that and I couldn't help myself. I had to admit sometimes I annoyed her on purpose just to see her feisty side came out and stealing her biscuits worked like a charm every time.

"T-That's not fair...Y-You can't always do that when I was trying to reason with you..." She stuttered.

Aw, I love her being all shy and flustered too. Oh, who am I kidding? I love her regardless.

"Can't help it. You look too sexy and irresistible" I smiled cheekily

"See? That's why I can never get mad at her" Jade rolled her eyes playfully

"Aw, you girls are so cute!" Phoebe exclaimed

"Yeah...but still, buying so many biscuits is kinda crazy, Perrie" Nicole raised a brow

"I would buy all the biscuits in the world if I have to" I beamed

"Don't do that, babe! I love biscuits but you almost made me fear chocolate digestive and not wanna see them in my life anymore!"

"O-kay" I smirked.

Maybe that's one of my motives too, so she won't be so obsessed with biscuits and I can eat them anytime I want without her permission

"W-We should go...I think J-Jesy is looking for you..."

I frowned at the nervous tone in Phoebe's voice and as we turned around, a fuming Jesy was coming our way and I had a good idea what she was up to

"Yeah, you should, she is a a devil...it's nice to meet you and I hope you both enjoy the rest of the night" The lovers smiled and quickly excused themselves

"Oh no babe...she looks really scary..." Jade murmured and clutched at my arm

"Don't worry baby, I will protect you." I rested an arm on her back pulling her closer, I kissed her head when she nuzzled her head into my neck

"What the fuck?! Why would you assign me to sit next to him and with a group of people I have never fucking seen in my life!"

"Calm your tits and stop yelling, Jesy. You are scaring my wife and don't you dare make her cry again" I gave her a hard glare as I slowly rubbing Jade's back

"How do you know?" She gasped

"Baby Karl told me and I would have killed you if it isn't for my wife here, she spares your life!" I griped

"That kid...I am really sorry, Jade"

"It's alright, Jes, it's just a misunderstanding" Jade smiled

"Why am I apologizing now?! I am not here to talk about that..." She mumbled to herself and when she looked up, she looked pissed again.

"I am not sitting with him. You are going to swap his seat with Leigh Anne right this second!" She howled

"Sorry, can't do, you are going to have to talk to him"

"WHAT TH-"

"Do you really hate him this much??" I cut her off

"N-No! Of course not! But it doesn't mean I am ready to talk to him again!" I sighed and placed my free hand on her shoulder

"It has been almost two years, Jes...maybe it's time"

I said genuinely, Jade hummed and nodded her head to support my point. I really think it's a good idea for them to reconnect and hopefully picked up what they left off...

"Perrie, you should know how awkward it would be to face or even speak to your ex-fiancé again. I understand why you would invite him to your wedding, but this...this is too much for me"

I almost wanted to abort the plan when I saw the pain and grief in her eyes, but I eventually decided not to. She still hasn't moved on from him and neither has he, I know it from the way he looked at her, I want this to change and I am sure allowing them to continue distancing themselves from each other won't help

"It's different, Jes. I never love Zayn and we didn't split on good term, even though I couldn't thank him enough for breaking up with me so I could finally marry to the love of my life" I smiled at the beautiful brunette in my arm who was grinning at my words, I pecked her lips before I continued

"But you and Jake are very much in love when you split...so why not give each other a second chance when the both of you are single and lonely?"

"I have Reggie!"

"Reggie is a cute lovely puppy, but you need a REAL man to love you" Jade countered, I chuckled and kissed her nose. Aw isn't she the most adorable thing on earth

"I don't know..."

"You know what? I could change seats so Leigh will be sitting next to you for your support, but she won't be swapping with him because I still want you two to at least have a conversation"

"How could you know he wants to talk to me though..."

"Believe me, I do..."

I nudged my head at the poor guy who was already in his seat, his gaze had never left Jesy as we talked. I chuckled when he quickly pretended to play with his phone once Jesy turned her head at his direction, a smirk crept up on my face when I saw Jesy blushed, and I had to hold my urge to tease her because this happened so rarely, but at the same time I didn't want her to back down because of it

"O-Okay...but I need Leigh"

"No problem, Jesy. You know we would love to be there for you too but we have to sit at our table since we are the couple for the day"

"I know, Jade. Don't wor-"

"Everybody takes your seat! The party is about to start!" Jonnie exclaimed as our two brothers would be the hosts for tonight.

"Fuck! I didn't expect to be this soon"

"You get this, you are Jesy Nelson after all"

Jade grinned and patted her shoulder, and her words seem to work the magic and gave her a confidence boost as a smile appeared on Jesy's face, I turned to look at my wife in awe. Is there anything this girl can't do?

"Why aren't our favourite couple not in their seats already?! We can't start the party if you two don't sit your arses down!" Karl called us out on the stage as he tried to find us in the crowd, I laughed when I saw Jade rolling her eyes

"Now go and we will go get Leigh and Andre to swap them with my aunt and uncle at your table"

Jade said. Jesy nodded and pulled us into a hug, mumbling a 'thank you' before hesitantly made her way to her table. We quickly did the swap and sat on our table, sharing a knowingly grin when we saw the two were already talking to each other with a small smile on their face

As the party began, food and drinks were served while everybody was watching a slideshow of our journey, starting with us as babies then to the first time we met as kids but had no idea who each other was, then to us met again on X Factor with a special bond and were put into Little Mix with two incredible women, then to us became best friends and started catching feeling and finally started dating, then to where we are now with photos and videos that were taken this morning and afternoon...most of the milestones in our lives were included in this 10 minutes clips and I had to say our idiotic brothers did a good job of elaborating our love life to the guests, even though they occasionally made jokes trying to make fun of us. Normally Jesy would take her chance to make it worse by saying something humiliating to get everybody to laugh at us, but luckily Jake was a good enough distraction for her to put most of her attention on. She seems to be loosened up which I am certain the alcohol was helping by a look at the empty glass in front of her and the smirk on Leigh Anne's face as she watched them, I guessed the conversation was going really well just like I wish.

The biggest smile never left my face when I watched everything being unfolded on the big screen while enjoying the delicious food in front of me, and what made me the happiest was definitely seeing the matching grin on my wife's face the whole time.

"Awww aren't our little sisters adorable, Karl?" Jonnie asked once the slideshow finished

"Errrrr nope. She is a little monster, Jonnie"

"Hey we are supposed to lie according to the script they wrote for us!"

"Idiots" Jade murmured and groaned as they continued to mock us

"I know, babe. It's actually pretty pathetic they can never be so intelligent like us...don't you think?" I smiled when she giggled at my words

"Absolutely" She grinned and pecked my cheek

"Oi"

I pouted and pointed at my lips. She laughed and kissed my lips, and I made sure our lips met long enough before letting her go, earning a bashful smile from my wife.

"Okay. Now it's time for toasts! Who wants to go first?" Jonnie asked and Leigh Anne immediately put up her hand and took the mic.

"I am really happy to see my two best friends getting married today, they have waited long enough, and so am I. I still remembered the first time they told me and Jes they were together, they looked so nervous like it would tear our career apart, or worse, the four of us apart, but there is no way, we are a four and we would always stay as four. There was a time we thought about Simon might break them up because of the group, but he didn't and was being really supportive, we were so ready to fight him and fortunately, we didn't have to, so thanks, Simon!" She raised her glass at him, getting a laugh from our boss as he winked at her, she then shifted her body to face us

"Now listen you two, you are never going to ditch us. We are going to make music together for as long as we could, and even when we all have our own families we are still going to meet up and let our kids be best friends just like us, and even our grandkids, we are best friends for life you hear me?"

"Of course we are Lee-Lee!" I screamed

"We love you, Lee!" Jade yelped

"Aw I love you too"

"Hey what about me!" We laughed as Jesy grumbled and made a protest

"Of course what I said involves you, Jesy. I said 'four'" Leigh rolled her eyes

"We love you, Jesy" Jade yelled

"I can see her being a grumpy grandma who refuses to leave her house though" I chortled

"Hey, I am never grumpy!" She scolded

"See" I grimaced and gestured at her, making everybody laugh except her

"We will see about that. But I am telling you now, I will drag your lazy ass out the house even if I have to break some bones of that old body of yours" Leigh threatened her and pointed a finger at her

"I am gonna be paralyzed and how could I leave the house then, idiot!" She countered

"You d-..."

"Oh that's a really nice speech, give Leigh Anne a wave of applause everyone"

Jonnie clapped and everybody followed, successfully stopped the fight the two were going to have. Leigh sighed and was about to give Jonnie the mic back, but Jesy snatched it in her hand

"I would love to make a toast too"

"O-kay" Jonnie raised his arms in surrender

"I always knew these two are meant to be together, and when I first had this thought in my head, I didn't even know they had met before as kids and all that was supposed to be a plot in a romantic movie, so I guess I am a genius right?"

I booed at her cocky comment, causing the guests to erupt into laughter. She gave me a death glare but it disappeared the moment she found Jake's gaze on her, who was wearing an amused smile on his face, and I swore I saw her blushed again.

"And so as us four, it just felt right when Kelly pulled us together, and it worked. When there is rarely a girl group doing well on the show, we won, and now it has been almost seven years and we are still going strong. Fate always lay a hand in our lives and therefore, I am not surprised to see these two getting married today, and I am sure if we hadn't been extremely busy with our work, they would have done that a long time ago...but no matter what, they must be one of the luckiest couples on earth because they are not only bandmates, they are each other's best friend, soulmate, lover and now wife, they get the chance to experience everything together and I don't think life could ever get better than that...so congratulation, Jerrie!"

She raised her glass and everyone did the same and cheered for us. We did the same and I mouthed her a 'thank you' before taking a sip of my drink. I was a bit surprised she made such a sweet speech, but she is Jesy so you could never expect what she would do, but I do know she loves us, even though she rarely say it out loud.

"Thank you Jesy. Now, we still have time before we move to the next part, why don't we let the newly married couple to say something?" Karl said and offered us his mic, Jade smiled at me and shrugged, so I took it instead

"We would love to thank everybody here for taking their time off to attend our wedding, I hope you all are enjoying it so far" I grinned as they replied to me with yeses

"And thank you for each and every single one of you being a part of our lives, we might not be here right now if we haven't met you all that made us who we are. I am sure Jade is always a wonderful person but for me personally, my family and friends had helped me to become a better person, and as for you, my lovely wife..." I paused to gaze at my wife, who was staring back at me fondly

"Thank you for making me realize I am worthy of your love"

"You always are, you dork" She scolded and threw her arms around my neck, I smiled and held her closely in my arms

"Your dork"

I corrected her, whispered the words into her ear so only she could hear. I would never get tired of doing that. She hummed contentedly and pecked my cheek, before pulling away and flashed me a lovable smile

"You got anything to say, my love?" She smiled and took the mic

"I second what my wife just said and thank you for being here, it really meant a lot to us. I would also like to apologize if we made you cry earlier at the ceremony, I am not gonna say much because I don't want to do that again so I am just going to say we love you so much" She took a bow as the crowd clapped, giving Karl his mic back

"And I love you the most, Perrie Edwards" She said before connecting our lips, causing some boisterous screams from the audience, but that didn't distract us from savoring each other's lips

"I love you the most too, Jade Thirlwall, my wife" I whispered against her lips after we pulled away from the sweet kiss

"Thank god they are finally done...because it's time for them to have their first dance! But before that, I would love to introduce a very special guest on the stage. He just finished his concert last night in Dublin and he took a flight right after that just to be here. So everybody, please give a big hand to...Ed Sheeran!"

The crowd squealed in shock as Ed came out with his guitar, only a few knew he would be singing, including myself, Jade and our brothers as they are the hosts, others thought he is just one of the guests but he plays a much important role than that, and we were really thankful he agreed to come even though he was busy touring.

"Hello I am Ed, how's everyone doing?" He smiled when the answers were all positive, laughed when someone asked him the same question

"I am great, thanks for asking. As you know yesterday was the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, I would love to perform for them but I couldn't because of my show, so I am really excited to be here today to sing for you guys. I must say, when Perrie and Jade first told me it would be a Disney theme, I freaked out because I have never sung a Disney song and I wondered why they would invite me out of all the people, I don't look like a prince do I?"

"But you kinda look like Prince Harry, Ed!" I shrieked

"Ah, he really does!" Jade laughed, and most of the guests agree with us

"Aw, that's really kind of you. He is handsome isn't he?"

"And so are you!" I shouted again

"Now you all know why Perrie invited me, she is definitely my biggest fan" He joked

"Of course I am. Who doesn't love Ed Sheeran?" I asked the crowd, getting a huge response from them as they yelled 'We love you Ed!"

"Wow thanks, guys. You made me feel like I was at my concert...so I think I will just start singing yeah? Can Perrie and Jade please come to the front?"

We chuckled as everybody began chanting our names, we got up and walked to the front hand-in-hand.

"They asked me to sing this song for their first dance because they said it's the first song they danced to when they became girlfriends, and I feel so honored, and flattered even. This is 'Thinking Out Loud'"

https://youtu.be/lp-EO5I60KA

Although this is not the first time we danced to this song, this time was different. We don't want to just sway our hip to the rhythm of the song, we wanted to actually dance since it is our first dance after all and we want it to be special. We don't want to just mimic Ed's music video so we came up with some dance moves ourselves, but Claud helped us with the whole choreography and we couldn't have done this without him, even though we might have annoyed the fuck out of him...

It was not because we struggled with the dance, not at all since Jade and I could learn a new dance pretty quick, we are dancers after all...it's our concentration. We might have put most our attention to each other instead of the dance itself and boy it pissed him off so bad! But could you blame me? When you were dancing so intimately with the love of your life to an extremely romantic song, you just hate any space separating you from her and wanna kiss the shit out of her

Thank god we didn't do exactly that this time, even though I wanted to, and I knew she did too by the look of those desirous brown eyes. Every time my fingers danced along her smooth skin, every time I grabbed her long tanned legs and wrapped them around my waist, every time I spun her around with her arms encircling my neck, every time we looked into each other's eyes when our faces just inches apart...every single damn second in the dance I was tempted to just smash on those luscious lips and taste the sweetness of them, but I tried my hardest to focus on the dance the whole time, not wanting our hard work go to waste and definitely don't want to be killed by Claud.

I beamed when it came to the last line. As we exchanged a sweet smile, I grasped on her small waist to lift her up, her legs locked tightly on my waist before arching her back as I slowly rotated our bodies, and when the song was about to finish, I stopped and gave a slight push on her back to straighten her torso, and carefully slid her body down until her feet were back on the ground. Grinning like a goof once I could see her beautiful face again, and it widened when an appreciative smile appeared on her face as she cupped my face, and I didn't need to move an inch closer as her lips were already on mine, kissing me with so much passion that I eagerly reciprocated.

Reluctantly pulling away once air became an issue, it is really a no surprise when the others were making gagging sounds and complaining about us kissing for too long, but we couldn't care less as I reconnected our lips and kissed her for seconds to irritate them even more, earning a few cute giggles and a peck on the lips from my lovely wife

"Usually I am really comfortable on stage, but right now...not so much"

Ed fake coughed and looked at our direction, we shrugged when the room filled with laughter again, not really bothered when they had been mocking us for the millionth time today.

"The next song I am going to sing for you guy-oh actually I want to tell you something first. As you know, I have written loads of songs and most of them are about my dear girlfriend, and when this song first came out, I received lots of calls from other artists saying they love this song, so when I got a call from this lady here" He smirked and pointed at me, I rolled my eyes knowing exactly what he was going to bring up, Jade giggled and kissed my cheek, she knew too as I obviously had told her about it

"I knew she was going to tell me the same...but that's not all, she said I stole the song that she was going to write for Jade, because the lyrics just match her so PERFECTLY and I was like 'No no, that's MY song for MY girlfriend, can you guess what this song is?"

"PERFECTTTTT!"

"That's right! And I am the one who WROTE the song, by the way" He pointed at himself with a cocky smile on his face

"And I am going to write something BETTER for my wife!" I challenged, earning some 'Ohhh' from others

"You sure are, you are so talented and the best songwriter to me, baby"

Jade whispered, I turned my head and I didn't care about my banter with Ed anymore when she was gazing at me with so much appreciation in her eyes, I don't give a fuck what others think, my heart is contented when she thinks I am the best

"I love you so much" I breathed out before connecting our lips

"I love you too, so so so much, my wife" She murmured before pressing her lips firmly on mine

"Hey hey! Not again! I don't want to wait for another hour to perform my second song!" I whined when Jade pulled away instantly

"No. Don't listen to him" I protested, jutting my bottom lip out

"Aw baby" She cooed and pecked my lips, but my pout stayed because I wanted more than just a simple peck, she smiled and caressed my cheek

"You know I would love to kiss you for as long as I could, but Ed needs to fly back to the U.K. after this so we shouldn't stall him off...later yeah?" She leaned in to give me another peck on the lips, but this time it turned into a smile as I nodded happily

"Aw thanks, Jade, you are so sweet and considerate, unlike your wife" Ed laughed, I let out a groan

"She is! She is the sweetest person!" She defended me, I watched her in awe as she sent Ed a hard glare, but instead of trying to look intimidating, to me she looked absolutely adorable.

"ONLY TO YOU!" Jonnie yelled.

"Well, for once, he is not wrong" I cooed and kissed her nose, smiled when her 'threatening' look disappeared right away and replaced with a bashful smile

"Hey! I am always right!" He countered

"Whatever" I rolled my eyes. Ignoring my idiotic brother, I turned to Ed and gave him a nod, he strummed the guitar to get everyone's attention.

"Feel free to dance to this next song, this is 'Perfect'"

https://youtu.be/2Vv-BfVoq4g

With our arms around each other's torso, we swayed our hips slowly to the rhythm of the song, never tore our gaze from each other.

"You are better than the song though, you are beyond perfection" I mumbled and nudged her nose, giving her an Eskimo kiss, she laughed and rubbed her nose against mine

"And so are you"

I smiled at her answer, knowing the old Jade would have a hard time taking my compliment, and so was the old me, but now we both had passed the insecure phase with each other's help and are willing to embrace all the praise and endorsement we deserve

And we both deserve each other.

"That's right, and our kids too"

I wiggled my brows, chuckled as she blushed and hid it by nuzzling her face into my neck, I could feel her lips curved up against my neck. I kissed her head and stroked her silky hair, smiled dreamily as I closed my eyes, imagined our future in my head

And my heart almost burst out with bliss just at the thought of it

I do know life couldn't always be impeccable, we both had experienced some downs ourselves. However, I knew as long as we are together, we can always find the perfection in our lives, and that is each other.

It felt only seconds when the song came to an end, I opened my eyes and scanned the room, noticed we were not alone on the dance floor anymore, a couple of people had joined us on the dance floor when we were lost in our own little world, like Karl and Shireen, Leigh and Andre, Jesy and...I let out a disappointed sigh when I saw her and Jake remained in their seats, awkwardly sipping their drink while watching people dance, being the only two left at their table.

"What's wrong, babe?"

Jade pulled away and looked at me concernedly, I nudged my head at their direction

"It's alright, baby. Don't you remember what the next song will be?" Jade smiled, I thought for a second and immediately smirked when I recalled it. Hopefully, it will give them a push

"For this next song...I was a bit uncertain when Jade and Perrie asked me to perform this one, but they pretty much begged me to play this so-" He paused and looked at us, we gave him a nod to reassure him it will be alright

"This is 'Tenerife Sea', everybody"

https://youtu.be/cHTEGQbtP1I

I could see his gaze was on Jesy and Jake for seconds before he began to sing the song. I could feel a burning stare on me so I turned to face a shocked Jesy glaring at us, disbelief and annoyance written all over her face, I held my wife protectively and caressed her back as I could feel her body tensed up. I must say I was concerned we offended her by going too far, but once I saw the surprised and sheepish look on her face when Jake finally got the guts to invite her for a dance, or more than just one I hope, I knew we did the right thing

"Mission accomplished"

I mumbled and smiled victoriously when I saw the two swaying their bodies to the song, although the move was a bit awkward and their arms encircled each other so loosely, I considered it as a win. It will surely take time, but at least they are trying again.

"Thanks to your brilliant idea" Jade grinned and kissed my cheek

"Thanks to you. Don't you think I am getting smarter the longer we are together, babe?" I winked, her cheeks slowly turned pink

"You and your smart mouth" She murmured

"And you will know exactly how smart my mouth is once we go back to our room later" I smirked when the colour on her cheeks changed into crimson

"Why do I marry you?" She hid her face behind her hands and shook her head

"Is that even a question?" I scolded and pulled her hands away from her beautiful face

"Unfortunately, no" She sighed

"Because you made it so clear I have no other choice but to marry you" She giggled and pinched my nose

"That's not the only reason why you marry me right?" I pouted

"Is that even a question?"

She mimicked me, rolling her eyes playfully. She pulled me closer so her forehead leaned against mine

"I love you. That's why, my wife" She breathed out

"And I love you too, my wife" I whispered back

As if on cue, the perfect line came in, so I sang to express what I was feeling at this exact moment

And should this be the last thing I seeI want you to know it's enough for me'Cause all that you are is all that I'll ever need  

I'm so in love, so in loveSo in love, love, love, love,So in love

The second my lips pressed against each other, it was covered by the most kissable and intoxicating lips, the only lips I will be kissing for the rest of my life
