1 Your Princess Will Be My Queen...

The wind was blowing slowly, making the already beautiful weather outside much more pleasing to have feel of...

Though the breeze was soft but it didn't hinder the birds sitting on the branches of the big trees from chirping a melodious song..

Cherry on top was the light shuffle of the dry leaves which were doing the perfect job of those musical instruments, giving rhythm to the unknown yet beautiful songs of the birds, converting the pleasant atmosphere into something more tuneful..

Maybe, it was the indication of a blissful journey of the couple who were going to step into the new phase of their life…

The parodies were working as the wedding bells of joining the life of two amazing people who were going to be tied into an unwavering commitment of marriage today..

The cooing sounds of the birds started to fade away as soon as the door of the big church opened and a low tune started to play in the background, declaring the presence of the most awaited bride who was being ushered into the big hall with the help of her father..

Everybody stood up to welcome the beauty in a beautiful white wedding gown, holding a bouquet while her face was covered with a long floral veil..

Although the veil was prohibiting everyone to have a clear look of the bride's face but it couldn't stop anyone to analyse how gorgeous of a bride she was..

Amidst of all those people, a man stood in a black tux, looking extremely dashing and handsome with his hair perfectly set with gel.

His eyes were not leaving the angel who was walking through the aisle with slow steps just to reach him..

His wait didn't prolong for too much time as the father daughter pair soon reached the stage where he was standing like a Greek God.

"Take care of my daughter. I'm not going to say that I'm giving away one of my biggest possession to you as she's not an object...

But what I can say is... she's the most precious part of my heart. So don't hurt her ever. I'm trusting you with her. Please try to make her happy and always be with her.." The warm voice of the bride's father finally brought the groom back from his trance.

The corner of his lips tilted up into an assuring smile as he said, "From the moment you gave her hand to me, she has already become my responsibility...

I won't promise you to fetch the moon and stars for her but I can assure you that no tears will stream out of her eyes henceforth. You can definitely trust her with me. Your princess will be my queen from now on."

Getting the very expected reply from his son-in-law, Mr. Blackwood gave him a huge smile and stood beside his wife..

In all these promises, they didn't notice the happy tear sliding down from the bride's face who felt a sense if security by holding the hand of her soon to be husband.

She just smiled at the two most important men of her life and couldn't feel more blessed to have them as her father and husband respectively..

As they stood in front of the priest, holding each other's hand, they couldn't stop the gushing feeling inside of their hearts while the goofy smile kept adorning their lips.

The priest glanced at both of them for a minute and then said in a loud enough voice for every guests present there to hear him clearly, "We are here to witness the wedding of two people standing over here...

Before proceeding any further, I'd like to know if anyone have any reasons on why these two people may not lawfully marry to each other."

As no one showed any kind of protest even after waiting for a few seconds, the bishop finally turned towards the groom and asked,

"Do you, Ethan Jones, take Katherine Blackwood, as your lawfully wedded wife, to have and hold, from this day forward, for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and health, to love and cherish until death do you apart?"

The hall fell into complete silence for the most awaited answer of the groom.

Ethan's eyes drifted towards his left where his parents were standing with a big smile or rather a fake one.

Then his head turned towards the woman who was going to be his from the moment he accepted those wedding vows and noticed her to stare at him with a pair of expectant eyes.

Heaving a big sigh, he looked straight into those big doe like eyes under the veil and muttered with confidence oozing out of his voice, 'I do…"
