His Sunshine

Chapter 7

Angelina

I got to my room and threw myself on bed, hugged my pillow tight as I cried. My heart hurts from what happened, our parents just decided that it's okay for them to throw a boom like this at us, not that I am complaining because Damon has always been my crush for four years and now I'm going to get married to him but when he openly said he's not marrying for love that stung my heart I really don't want to lie, it hurts because I feel like I will finally get a chance to express my love for him but maybe I'll be getting unrequited love from him.

I heard a knock on my door, sat up straight on my bed then answered

"Come in"

"Hey baby, I came to check on you" mom said with worry

"I'm fine mom, I just want to be left alone" I said not looking at her

"I'm not going anywhere honey not when you need me the most"

"you were there when I was born why did you allow that arrangement to be drawn up" I asked my voice a whisper

"I'm sorry honey but I wasn't involved in that arrangement I only found out about it three days ago"

"And you think it's okay for me to get married to him"

"Yes because I have known him since from a little age, he only changed recently and I think you'll both make a beautiful pair"

"Okay mom" I dismissed whatever thought or whatever red flag I saw from Damon because what I feel for him is deep as it's been years already...

Two weeks later

Damon

Here I am dressed in my black texudo, waiting in the podium with the pastor waiting for my bride to walk down the aisle. There are no guests as we wanted an intimate and private ceremony, so here with me is my mom, dad and my best friend Jayson Angelina's mother and also her friend Ruby.

The wedding song started thus making everyone else stand up and stare at the doors of the church. She walked in her hand tucked under her dad's, veil covering her face and flowers on the other hand. Her dress though!!!clad her tight like a second skin, revealing a perfect figure that she has, it has long laced sleeves with white beads, floor length, hugging her curves and big round butt.

They came walking in slowly then soon after they reached where I am waiting for her, her dad handing her to me, all this seemed beautiful to someone that wanted to get married but to me I just want to get it over and done with.

We turned and faced the priest, he greeted and said some unnecessary stuff until I heard him say it's time to exchange our vows I started as I took her ring with a huge sparking diamond on top from Jason ready to put in on her finger

"With this ring I Damon King Knight promise to treat you right" I said as I put it on her finger now it's her turn to say her vows

"With this ring I promise to stand by you ,for better or worse, through thick and thin, I will love you unconditionally in sickness and in health I promise to be a respectful wife and try take care of your needs"

Why do I feel like she is saying this from deep down of her heart like she truly means this I wondered..

"With the power invested in me I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may know kiss your bride" Said the priest

I lifted her veil and saw tears in her eyes , woman and their hormones I mentally rolled my eyes, I just stared at her as I looked deep into her eyes , I only thought if I marry it's going to be Katie and now seeing Angelina brought pain and anger that I try so much to keep it at bay but right it's overwhelming me so I did what's best for me and stormed out of the church leaving Angelina and everyone else shocked especially my dad as he stood and tried calling me but I ignored him and drove away.

Angelina

My husband, Damon left me standing at the altar while I expected him to kiss me when we have exchanged our vows and rings. Hurt, disappointment and embarrassed shook my core as my husband left me standing in front of our families and friends, well at least they both of our friends know about arrangement but still it hurts to be left standing.

We headed to Damon parents house to eat lunch but before we left the church I changed into my black ripped jeans on the knees , slides and a red t-shirt. We went there to eat until my friend ruby came near me and gave me a hug then whispered

"Are you okay"

"Yeah sure I am"

"You know it's okay to feel not okay I saw how it affected you when Damon left you..."

"I know what happened there's no need for you to remind me"

"Ok I'm sorry but I want to know do you think this marriage is worth it"

"Ruby you know very well that I have always felt attracted to Damon, an opportunity arose and I took it as I really want to date him and shower him with love"

"You sound so sure that he's also attracted to you too"

"Even if he's not I'll still stand by him maybe he'll learn to love me back down the line"

"Okay but if you want to talk about anything you know I'm here right"

"Yes I know, thanks"

We ate lunch without Damon's presence, it was more like a normal family eating lunch, one would not think for a second that it's a wedding reception as there was no decorations. We continued to eat, talk and laugh. Well at least I am laughing now I thought to myself.

It was now evening when it was time for me to go to my new house, well it's Damon's but now it's mine too since we're married, my stuff will be delivered tomorrow at Damon's place with that I bid goodbye to my family, tears in my eyes, I held my mom tight in an embrace while she patted my back in a comforting manner.

"Ok goodbye now" I climbed on my white Mercedes C200 and drove away hoping that I have made a right decision that I can change Damon's perception about woman again ,that I'll be able to knock down his walls around his heart and that I'll be able to make him feel again...

If I knew....
