The Witch and The Hybrid

Chapter 19-Happily Ever After

Emilia's P.O.V

"I  can't wait to see you in your dress" my aunt Kelly says as she pushes pins in my hair.

It's so gorgeous" Rachel says with a smile as she flips through a magazine, she sitting in the chair next to mine getting her hair done by Madison. Madison is a stylist that works for my aunt Kelly, she's 5'5 with long brown hair that she keeps in a ponytail. She has hazel eyes and has fair skin, she'd wearing a black apron over a pair blue jeans and a blue t-shirt.

"I can't believe my baby is getting married" my mom says with a sob, she's sitting by one of the manicure tables with Bonnie.

"Now don't start crying you'll smear your make-up" I tell her then I start to sob.

"No no no, no crying" Rachel says sternly trying not to cry herself. "We can't let our make-up get ruined" she says dabbing a tear that escaped her eye.

"And done" my aunt Kelly said then turns me around to face the mirror, I look at my reflection and I instantly want to cry. My hair is up in curls with babies breath tucked in here and there, there's some loose curls falling down the sides of my neck.

"It's beautiful" tears threaten to escape my eyes.

"Okay, like Rachel said no crying" she squeezed my shoulders.

"Okay dress time"Kim says excitedly. I get up off the chair and go into the back with Rachel, Kim and Sarah to put my dress on. Once I'm in my dress I step in front of the mirror to look at myself, my dress is designed in a Princess style. It has a v-neck with off the shoulder cuffs, it has enough pearl beads all over the top of the gown, the skirt flows out like waves in the ocean. I step out of the back room with the girls, my aunt gasps and tears start to flow down her cheeks.

"Oh my gosh" she wipes the tears off her face, "I have to redo my make-up now" she chuckles, we all chuckle in unison. I go and sit down in a chair and my aunt puts my veil on my head the places a tiara o over my veil, I look at myself in awe, I can't believe how different I look.

"You look amazing" my mom comes up behind me and squeezes my shoulders.

"The limo's here" Sarah announces.

"Come on" Rachel grabs the bouquets and Sarah grabs a make-up box, "we'll fix your make-up at the temple" Rachel tells my aunt. We leave the beauty shop and carefully climb into the limo and make our way to the temple.

Michael's P.O.V

I'm standing at the front of the altar with Emmett, Darren and Robert by my side, Emmett is my best man and Darren and Robert are my groomsmen. I keep fidgeting with my tie and I can feel sweat on my forehead, I'm so nervous. I feel like I've been standing here for hours, the more In stand here the more nervous I get.

"Relax" Emmett hands me a napkin so I can wipe the sweat off my face, I take the napkin and pat the sweat off my face. Emmett straightens my tie back into place, I look at the men standing beside me in their black tuxedos and purple ties. I look over at my parents sitting in the front row, my mom is already starting to tear up. The doors open and I watch as Eric walks his mom down the aisle and to her seat, Bonnie starts walking and tossing purple and pink pedals down the aisle as she goes. When  she reached the altar she went and took her seat by her mom, the bridesmaids started making their way down the aisle. Kim walked first then Sarah, Rachel slowly made her way down the aisle and took her place in the maid of honor spot. The pianist began playing the wedding march, I looked at the double doors as they opened to reveal Emma and her father. Tears began forming in my eyes as I watched her father walk her down the aisle, she's the most beautiful creature in the world. My heart feels like it's about to jump out of my chest, they reach the altar and I smile at her, I can see her smile through her veil.

"Who gives this woman to this man?" Elder Mason asks.

"Her mother and I do" her father states, he looks at me and shakes my hand the places her right hand into my left. He walks over and takes his seat next to Emma's mom, Emma and I turn to face the two Elders. Emma hands her bouquet of purple and pink roses to Rachel, we turn to face each other placing our hands together.

"Today we come together to join two souls together as one" Elder Mason starts, "Emma and Michael have spent their whole lives preparing for this moment" he continued. "I've never met two souls who were as meant for each other as these two are" he smiled at us, "we're going to begin with the ceremonial blessing. If I can have the mothers of the bride and groom come up and place your hands on them" he gestured for our mothers to come up to the altar. Our mothers walked up behind us and placed their hands on our shoulders, everyone bowed their heads and Elder Mason began speaking the blessing in Latin. When the blessing was finished our mothers walked back to their seats. "Can I have the father of the groom come up and place his hands on the bride and groom and Elder Grey will deliver the Genie's ceremonial blessing" he gestured for my father to come up, my father came up behind us placing his hands on our shoulders. Everyone bowed their heads as Elder Grey came over speaking the blessing in Arabic, when the blessing was done my dad went back to his seat.

"Emma and Michael" Elder Mason started again, "you both have faced many challenges getting here" he continued. "But you never gave up on each other, you showed us all what it really means to be soulmates and it gives me great pleasure to be the one that unites the two of you in marriage" he states. "With that being said may I please have the rings" he looks to Emmett who takes them out of his pocket and places them in Elder Mason's hand. "These rings are a symbol of unity and commitment" he holds up the rings in both his hands. "Placing these rings on each others fingers you are promising to commit yourselves to one another and only to one another" he states. "Do you Emilia Rose Tyler take Michael Joseph Tadros to be your one and only from now and forever?" he asked Emma.

"I do" Emma replied with a smile and trying not to cry, she took a ring from Elder Mason and slid it on my left ring finger.

"And do you Michael Joseph Tadros take Emilia Rose Tyler to be your one and only from now and forever?" he asked me.

"I do" I smiled and I tried to fight back the tears, I took the ring from his hand and slid it onto Emma's left ring finger.

"Emilia and Michael have been joined together by the Goddess Eliza and the God Heruka, with the exchanging of rings and the vows of commitment these two souls are now one" he declares. "Michael you may now kiss your bride" he smiled at me. I lifted Emma's veil and placed it over her head, she smiled at me with tears forming in her eyes. I smile back at her then cup her face with my hands then lean in and kiss her lips. "May the Gods bless you always" Elder Mason and Elder Grey said in unison as I kissed Emma.

We pulled away from our kiss and smiled at each other, we turned to face our families and friends. Rachel handed Emma back her bouquet, the pianist started playing the wedding march again as we made our way up the aisle to the double doors at the back.

 The Reception

The reception was at Rizzo's Fine Italian Restaurant, Elder Mason bought it out just for the occasion. Everyone was dancing, drinking and having an all out good time. Darren and Sarah were holding each other close as they danced, Kim and Robert were doing shots with Emmett and Rachel. Jerry was trying to get Jose to ask the hot waitress with black hair and long sexy legs out on a date, Terry was just sitting there laughing his ass off. Sean was sitting with the newlyweds talking about the time they all first met, Bonnie pulled her big brother Eric onto the dance floor and he willingly went with her. The party went on for hours even after the bride and groom left, Rachel caught the bouquet and Darren caught the garter. The small group of friends sat together at a table while the parents all gathered at the bar.

"It was such an amazing and beautiful wedding" Sarah said.

"Yes it was" Hannah sighed.

"What's wrong Hannah?" Sean asked her.

"I was just thinking" she replied.

"About what?" Terry asked her.

"About how everything is going to change now" she said sadly.

"What's going to change?" Emmett questioned her.

"Everything" she said, "Emma and Michael are married now and soon you and Rachel will get married" she sighed. "Then Kim and Robert will be next, we all won't be hanging out as much anymore" she wiped a tear from her cheek.

"That will never happen" Sean spoke up.

"How do you figure?" Hannah questioned him.

"Because I won't let it" he declared.

"How do you plan to do that" Jerry asked him.

"Look, I've been around a long time and I've had a fair share of friends" he stated. "I still see some of my old friends from time to time, at least the ones that are still alive" he sighed. "But there's a small group of friends that I stay very close to" he stared over at the bar where Emma's parents, Elder Mason and his wife, Michael's parents, Darren's parents and Emma's uncle Brian and aunt Kelly were sitting together drinking and laughing. Sean smiles at the group of parents then turns his attention back to the group he's sitting with. "I even became friends with their kids" he smiled at them, "so as long as I'm here in this world nothing will ever change" he stated with a smile.
