Chapter Fifteen: Our Wedding

I think Thor and I were rolling on a tidal wave. Now we seemed to have a huge amount of passion that we could barely contain and we did try. Oh, did we try, but it seemed like it wasn't enough. We had to at least touch hands when we were in the same room! I felt a little more gidd and nervous as our wedding day approached. We were inviting everyone and I even was letting Amanda perform. I had everything prepared for it. Two days from now.

Today I had a training with Sif the moment I got out of bed. The problem was that I didn't want to get out of bed. I wanted to stay right next to Thor, but even he had things to do this morning. I grudingly opened my eyes and stared at Thor. He was asleep so I was just going to look at him. His chest was bare and my hands rested on them while my head rested on his right arm. His left arm was wrapped around my waist, holding me secure to him. His face had lost all of it's hardness. It was soft and peaceful. Mesmerizing. I lightly touched his face, feeling his beard beneath it and even though I never really like it I guess I'd get used to it. His hair was fanned out in it's short long way. I traced his cheek and I almost went and traced his eyes, but he smiled and opened them. He stared down at me and I giggled as he caught my hand.

"If this is how I'm going to wake up every morning I think I'd never get out of bed." Thor said in the gruff sleepy voice.

"Good morning." I smile as I feel that burning passion being held in check by both of us.

"Good morning." He answers and kisses the tip of my nose. I want to stay this way,but I know I have to otherwise Sif will storm in here.

"I have training with Sif today." I tell him and he nods.

"You better hurry before she bursts in here. I swear that woman has no care for anything." Thor says laughing. I laugh and raise out of bed. I walk into the shower and take a quick one and then walk outside to see Thor waiting to go in. I smile and pull my towel closer.

"I love you." Thor says as he comes closer. My breath gets lost inside my throat as his hand rests on the crook of my neck. He leans down and kisses me and all thoughts fly away. I forget I'm on a push for time and that Sif is probably storming the training room or about to come into the room. It's just me and Thor for a little while and then he seems to master some control and he pulls away. I stare at him smiling.

"I love you." And then I move to the walkin closet as he enters the shower. I take a few minutes to calm down and then dress in all black. I pull my hair into a high ponytail and half run to the training room. I was right. She was getting angry.

"Finally! Where have you been?" Sif asks as i stand in front of her with a sword.

"I woke up late." I mumble. She smiles in a knowing way.

"Oh, did Thor keep you up?" She asks as she swings her sword at me. I deflect it and then answer.

"No! I stayed up late working on things for the wedding." I tell her honestly. She deflects the swing I made at her.

"It's in two days time." She points out after sending her sword at me three times. She was aiming to hurt early, but I was aiming to tire her.

"Yeah and that's why everything has to be perfect. I can't have one glitch in this whole thing." I tell her. She smiles knowingly and dodges my feeble attempt to disarm her.

"Ok, so what is your main worry?" She asks as I finally disarm her and we just stand there.

"That Loki and Sefrina will ruin it."  I tell her honestly.

"I don't think Loki will do that." Sif answers and she actually means it.

"Why?" I ask her.

"Well if there is one thing Loki cares about, it's his mom. He wouldn't want to ruin Thor's wedding day because his mother is too caught up into it. He of all people would know that one thing wrong would hurt her. Besides if he does I will kill him myself." Sif gives that smile that I truly do hate. It's full of power and hurt. She knows how to deal a deadly blow.

"Ok." I answer and then she jumps up. Her hands out in front of her.

"Round two." She says and we begin training again.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After getting my butt kicked and kicking butt Sif and I headed to our rooms to shower. We would meet each other for a quick lunch and I would have to take her with me into the town today. I had a surprise for Thor for our wedding presents.

I showered and put on one of my favorite dresses. It had a gold outline on top and so were the short sleeves, the dress itself was blue, but opened up right under the gold band to show white with gold stripes. The blue past went all the way down the back of the dress and trailed down the floor.. The white left a little space to show my golden heels. I piled my hair on top, in a messy bun sort of way. I added golden eyeshadow, a little eyeliner, mascara, and pink lip gloss. I smiled as I looked at myself but walked down our stairs until I reached the dining hall. I only saw Sif and we just ate a sandwich with water and left.

"You look just like a Queen." Sif finally says as we walk into town.

"Thank you." I say. It was a pleasant thing. I was glad I looked the part, but could I be the part?

"Well what are we doing first?" Sif asks. I look and see a small blonde girl and I know I have to talk to her.

"Amanda." I say and the woman looks back at me. She smiles and comes over to me.

"So I hear you and Thor are taking the extra step." She says. I smile.

"I was hoping you'd take the chance to sing for us." I tell her pleasantly.

"Of course." She says brightly.

"Great, there is a time before our dance where I'm going to sing a song, so you won't be singing then." I tell her. Her smile gets a little strained.

"Of course, and what song do you plan on singing?" she asks. I shake my head.

"A secret. Now could you sing for our dance?" I ask her.

"Of course." She answers and then she moves away. I nod and begin to do everything else. I check on the cake, the town, and then I just stroll around smiling and talking to everyone like I've known them all my life. I could tell that the people were looking at me like I was some kind of goddess and in there eyes I might, but in my own I was just a normal girl trying to make them happy.

"Miss! Miss!" I hear a little boy say and I turn to see the little boy from the first time I was here.

"Avion!" I say happily and hug him. He looks pleased just to see someone knows him.

"You remember." He says excitedly. I smile at him.

"Of course I do." I tell him. "Now where's that moma of yours?" As soon as I ask this I hear the tell tale sign of a panicked mother.

"Avion! Avion where have you gone?" she says desperately.

"Over here moma!" He yells back and she appears, glad to see him. She sees me and smiles.

"Oh thank god! He's with you, I would've been angry if it was someone else." she says as she comes close.

"Ma'am he found me. I was just happy to find him." I answer. She pulls her boy into a hug and then scolds him.

"Avion don't you run away from your moma like that! You almost gave me a heart attack." she says. I laugh a little and then begin to leave, but stop when she places a hand on my wrist.

"I meant it. Back then when I said you would make a perfect mother. I still mean it." She smiles at me and this time I have to know.

"What's your name?" I ask her.

"Caralina." she answers.

"It's a beautiful name. I hope to see you and Avion at my wedding in two days." I say to her. Her face goes slack with surprise, but Avion seems to be jumping up and down in excitement.

"Of course." she answers and walks away. I turn to look at Sif who seems to be smiling happily.

"You are amazing." she states and I just look away. Truth be told that made me happy.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Today was the day. Today I was finally going to be married.

My dress was something I'd begged his mother to let me wear because it wasn't a traditional one, but it was one that screamed me. It was pure white and it had a heart shaped neckline. Diamonds encrusted the entire front from the top to just above the waist. A little line of diamonds went down my left hip just a little way. The bottom poofed out perfectly and had little waves going over it straight onto the floor. One hundred beads ran down my back. We decided my hair would stay down in all it's curly glory and a crown would be put on the top with a white lace as a veil. I was wearing a neckly with a blue pendant in the middle for something old and something blue- it was my mother's. My feet were incased in clear heels and a diamond bracelet gleamed on my wrist. Sif had added champagne colored eyeshadow, black eyeliner and mascara, and lipgloss. She made me look beautiful. I was fidgeting as I waited outside for the procession to end.

"Esmerelda?" I heard Odin say. He was standing next to me, smiling. I smiled back. I'd asked him to walk me down the aisle and he'd been more than happy to say yes. I was happy. "Ready?"

I nodded because I was afraid I'd not be able to talk. Our cue came and we began to walk down the aisle. I heard gasps as I walked but my eyes were only for Thor who only had eyes for me. I smiled as I walked over to him. Odin kissed my cheek and handed me over to Thor. I placed my hand in his and it began.

We decided we were going to say our own vows, and that is how we began.

"When we were kids you used to tell me not to do something because it was stupid, but you ended up doing them with me. I found you to be strong and capable even then. I still find you strong and capable. Esmerelda Sevelia Milli Dovalaria, you are everything that I could ever ask for. You're funny, sweet, compassionate, strong, powerful, and beautiful. Not just on the inside but also on the outside. You love people even when they don't deserve it and through everything I've put you through you've stayed right next to me. I don't deserve you, but I love you and I hope one day I will measure up to the guy you shoud have." Thor began and I was crying like a little kid right in the middle of it. I laughed a little to get the nerves out and began mine,

"When I was a little girl I had this huge crush on you. Even then I knew that one day I would grow to love you and that you are worthy of everything I have to offer. You were everything I could ever ask for and everything I didn't. You have healed me to the point that I can't believe there is another person out there for me. I have found my stregnth, my wisdom, and my love with you. I have found everything I thought I lost when I lost my family in you and I would never give this up. This feeling of content and love and joy. I would take the fights, the arguement, and all of the things you have to offer me because you are my world. Thor I love you and I am proud to be your Queen." I end it with a little choking sound and I see tears glistening in his eyes. The crowd was awwing and by some sniffs I could tell some of them were crying. I looked at the priest and he said the ending lines.

"Do you, King Thor, take Esmerelda Sevelia Milli Dovalaria, to be your wedded wife? Do you promise to love her, comfort her, honor and keep her in sickness and in health, remaining faithful to her as long as you both shall live?" He asks him. Thor looks at me and smiles, slipping the wedding band on my finger.

"I do." Oh my goodness I am hyperventillating.

"Do you, Esmerelda Sevelia Milli Dovalaria, take King Thor  to be your wedded husband? Do you promise to love him, comfort him, honor and keep him in sickness and in health, remaining faithful to him as long as you both shall live?" I slip his wedding band on happily.

"I do." I smile.

"By the power vested in me I know pronounce you husband, and wife. You may kiss your bride." The preist says.

"Thank God." Thor says and pulls me close and into a long sweet drawn out kiss. I hear whistles, but I grip onto him in happiness. We are finally married and nothing can stop me from being happy.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I stand on stage and Thor watches in happiness. I had just finished singing Nightingale by Demi Lovato and I was know moving to join Thor on the dance floor. Amanda took my spot on the stage and began. I loved the song already, but I was too busy caught up with Thor to mind the lyrics.

"You look breathtaking Esmerelda." Thor says in my ear.

"I feel breathless. This dress is tight." I answer back. I wasn't lying, it was tight.

"I'll help you out of it later." Thor promises and I realise something. I don't have to hold back anymore. I can let the desire and passon run loose. It made me even more giddy as I looked into his eyes and then went on tip-toes to answer him.

"How about now?" I pull back to look at the shock and something else on his face. Something like excitement. He growls and flies into the air, heading straight to his room. I laugh and I feel totally in love.
