In a burst of joy, Michael held her in his arms and spun twice on top of the sand. The sound of Sophia’s laughter covered the surging waves.

He pressed his damp lips softly against her forehead.

She looked at him with tear-filled eyes, then turned to the ocean and yelled, “Sophia Edwards and Michael Fletcher will be spending the rest of their lives together!”

He looked at how excited she was but remained unmoved. He only wished that he could yell along with her and inform the whole world about their vow to stay together forever.

But, he knew that he could not stay with her for long.

The only thing he could give her was a wedding, yet Sophia had believed in all of it.

She genuinely believed that they would be together for eternity.

The next day, their wedding ceremony began.

Michael was extremely nervous. He did not know where to put his hands; putting them in his pocket did not seem right but neither did just letting them hang at his sides. Moreover, his nerves were making his palms sweat. With sweaty palms, he continued to pace back and forth at the venue.

It had been a while since he last felt this nervous. He was not acting now; this was live.

At a wedding, there was no such thing as a retake. Everything had to be done in one take and no mistakes were allowed.

Even though the wedding was small and rushed, it still had to be spectacular. To strive for perfection, he purposely put on some powder and trimmed his eyebrows. Otherwise, he might not have been able to match up to his beautiful bride.

Standing at the side, Quinton chided, “Okay, that’s enough. Stop being so nervous. You’re breaking into a sweat. Watch out for your makeup.”

There were only a handful of guests. Sam and Nicole, who had gotten married two days ago, were now guests themselves. There were also a few people from the Fletchers and the Mitchells, as well as Bailey from the Adams Family. The Michel Family did not receive word. Because Michael and Sophia did not want outsiders to find out, they only invited several close friends and family they met on a regular basis.

They had only gone through a swift rehearsal early in the morning. Michael was so nervous that he kept going over the steps to make sure that he would not make a mistake.
