Chapter 19

ღஐ✿Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ✿ஐღ

Today was my wedding day to Finn. I could hardly believe we were finally getting married. At long last. It seemed like ages.

But here it was time to wed. Tears wanted to flow from my eyes for the tenth million time that afternoon. But I had happy tears not sad tears like when I thought I would never see Finn in my life again.

That had been an awful dark time for my life. Now we would spend together everyday in our lives. Maybe one day move out of Grams house.

And get a place of our own. I had so much to look forward to with Finn. I glance in the mirror. All my baby weight was nearly gone. I fit into this dress perfectly. I brush back tears.

I take a deep breath. I had the coral pin in my hair that Finn had once proposed to within my hair. I had my hair curly and down the way he liked it to be.

And I was ready to go running down the aisle to him. I smile at my image in the mirror. Finn was waiting down at the beach with the rest of his family. Waiting for his bride to come.

We could not have asked for a nicer day at the beach. The sun was bright. It was not to hot out. There was a slight breeze as well. I could not wait to see handsome Finn all dressed up for our wedding day. I sigh. So much happened. So many good things to come. I was really overjoyed.

"Don't cry you will ruin your make up" warns Charolotte to me as she comes in hugging me.

"I can't believe I am going to finally marry Finn!" I tell her. "My dreams coming true."

"No one deserves it more" adds my cousin as she hugs me to.

The music begins to play. That meant the wedding was going to start here soon. My gram hands me my flowers to bring with me as I walk down to Finn.

"Maybe the next wedding we will have will be for Riley" teases Charotte.

"Am I missing something Riley?" I ask her.

"No" blushes Riley. "Shut up Char"

They giggle.

Something was going on. I would find out later, I was sure. I had to focus on the wedding right now. Mom was holding little Rafe in her arms for me. Dad was even here to walk me down to Finn.

I was glad he and my mom were getting along for me for at least one day. This day was important. I wanted them both to be here. Our families were going to be joined by us. It was a magical thing.

• ❤︎ •

"I can't believe my little girl is getting married" dad wistfully says to me. He hugs me.

"Hopefully only one time" smirks my mother.

"Mom, you promised" I warn her sternly.

"Sorry, it will not happen again" laughs my mom.

Dad takes my arm. Everyone begins to walk down the beach aisle. To Finn. I wait as mom walks with Rafe and Gram down before us. Then dad and I walk.

"Congrats honey. I think you picked out a keeper. I wish you nothing but the best. Some marriages last forever. Some don't and I think this one will" dad sweetly tells me.

"Thanks dad" I softly say as happy tears come to me. He kisses my cheek. Then we walk to Finn.

• ❤︎ •

I make sure my tears clear so I can see to walk. When it does I get a vision of Finn before my very eyes. All dressed up. With a happy smile on his face. We all had beach wear on. Because it would be to hot for the men to wear a dress outfit. We wanted it to be fun. But Finn looked handsome in anything he wore.

"Who gives this woman away?" the preacher in the water asks us.

"I do" dad says.

He smiles then holds my hands. And hands me over to Finn.

We begin the wedding. No one else was on the beach but all of us. It was perfect. Because the tourist had gone home for the summer. Summer was over.

"You look beautiful Sydney" Finn remarks as his eyes rest on me.

I smile. "Thank you, Finn you look, so handsome"

He holds my hands in his. He looks nervous to as I felt.

We say our vows. Then they marry us. Everyone cheers once the ceremony was over with.

• ❤︎ •

"You may now kiss your bride" calls out the preacher.

Finn takes me in his arms then kisses me.

"We did it!" I say as I touch his face with my hand after we kiss.

"I always knew it. We were meant to be" he answers me.

I nod with a yes. Then I take little Rafe from mom. And we begin the beach party. There was a buffet. Full of food waiting for us. We get our dinner first. Then we all eat together. Close by the ocean so we could all chat with Finn's family to. It was a magical day.

"Let me take the little guy. I will have him the whole night. So you and Finn can celebrate properly" mom says. "It is my gift to you" she says as she holds Rafe for me.

"Thank you, mom," I say gratefully.

I have a great dinner with all of them. Then we dance the night away as the sun sets over in the west. They take plenty of photos for Finn and myself.

This was a day I knew I would never ever forget. It was a slow dance. Finn wanted to dance. He surprised me because he learned how to dance!

• ❤︎ •

"I have a gift for you" he tells me.

"Oh?"

"On our first wedding anniversary I plan on taking you to a real honeymoon. I cant afford one yet. I am sorry" he tells me.

"Sorry to cut in. I have to go. This is for you two" dad says as he hands me an envelope.

"Dad thanks" I say gratefully.

I open it with Finn. Inside were two tickets to Hawaii.

"All expense paid honeymoon. Mom and gram are watching Rafe for a few days. Enjoy" dad tells us.

"Dad wow! Are you sure?" I gush.

Finn was shocked. "Thank you, sir,"

"I wanted you kid to have a honeymoon. I never got to take your mom on one for our wedding night. I regret the things I should have done" dad explains to us.

Mom smiles looking touched.

"Thank you, dad thanks, so much" I say with happy tears. We hug him.

"Thank you, mom," I add as I hug her and gram next.

"Wow, Finn we leave tonight" I read the tickets.

"We better get to packing here soon" Finn chuckles.

"Already, did" adds Riley. She shows me packed bags.

"Oh, you guys!" I say with joyful tears.

Who knew dreams did come true after all.

Later that night I was on flight with Finn. I snuggle to his side and yawn.

• ❤︎ •

"Take a nap. We have a long flight" he warns me. He kisses the top of my head.

"I love you Finn. I am so proud to be your wife" I say to him.

"I love you Sydney. I am happy your finally my wife and I will be the best husband I can to you. That is a promise" he says sweetly to me.

I yawn as I close my eyes. Hugging him close to me. Dreaming of our fun ahead in beautiful Hawaii. Happy that all my dreams had come true. I could not ask for anything more.

The End.....
