II
REBECCA'S POV
I couldn't actually complete my sentence. It was either Emeliano had finally gone mad or he was definitely playing with me.
"What is the meaning of this?" My eyes were wide as I looked over at him.
"I didn't know how long it would take, but I can't wait any longer, I want to marry you, here and now." He said with so much love in his eyes.
"But-"
I looked over at the end of the plane, there was a guy holding a Bible, around the pulpit stand, flowers decorated everywhere, and it was so beautiful. "Emeliano."
"We're heading back to Orlando, where the problem awaits, I want to make this right, I want to make us right."
"By getting married in a plane? Without family? Friends?"
"Our family and our friends has done nothing to make this relationship work."
"But-"
"Look, I know this seems rushed. But I promise to give you the normal boring wedding that everyone seems to be comfortable with."
My mouth formed into a grin. "Hmm, we'll never be normal, will we?"
"Where's the fun in being just normal?" Emeliano smirked.
"You're right. Now let's make this permanent." I said, pulling Emeliano's hand towards the preacher who was going to indeed bring us together.
"Okay. In the Lord's presence today, we are gathered here to celebrate the coming together of these two heavenly made-"
"Can we just skip to the vow exchange part?" Emeliano interrupted the preacher.
"Of course, you can go ahead, exchange vows."Emeliano smiled at me. "I- we- I-"
"Relax." I whispered to him. Smiling when I realized why he wanted to skip to the vow exchange part.
"I love you," he started. "Because of- so many, many things. And I seriously don't know where to start from. You've been very very very patient with me. Something I never thought anyone would ever be. You restored long lost hope, you rebuilt me, changed me. You made me better. These past few months have been amazing, well- minus the plan part."
I chuckled.
"In all I just, really, really appreciate that you're here for me, that you stayed and that you'll stay."
"I will." I whispered to him, my eyes already watery.
"I know. I found it diff icult to trust you before, but- now I do. I trust you and I'm ready to give you everything you want, I'm ready to surrender myself fully and wholly to you. I love you Rebecca and I really want us to live together, grow old, have kids and give them crazy names and all that. I just want to spend the rest of my life with you. Only if you say I do."
I couldn't contain my emotions anymore and I really wanted to tell him everything I felt. "I do because I love you." I started. "Because of so many, many things, and I seriously can not think of a place to start from. You've been very patient with me, despite the fact that I did and said things to you, you were patient and loving and forgiving, something I never thought you would ever be."
He smiled. "I know we didn't meet in the best circumstances, I know when we get back to Orlando, things aren't really going to be shiny between us but- I really really really appreciate that you're here for me. For us." I placed my hands over my belly.
"I know you found it really diff icult to trust me and I know that now you do and I promise to never ever to break that trust. I'm ready to give you everything you want, my mind body and heart, I surrender it all to you, fully and wholly. I really love you Emeliano and I also want us to live together, grow old, have kids, give them crazy names and all that. I just want to spend the rest of my life with you. Only if you say I do."
"I do." He muttered.
"You may-"
Within seconds, Emeliano's lips were on mine. I threw my arms around him, kissing him back with all I had.
I can't believe it, we're married.
He broke off the kiss. "Now you see why I didn't want to make this public."
"Of course. Our vows were too unique to share with the public."
He Chuckled.
"I love you." He muttered, putting his forehead on mine.
"I love you too."
****
The private plane finally landed.
The air hostess ushered us out, wanting to help with our bags and stuff s, but we dismissed them, we took it ourselves and walked out of the private plane area.
"So, where are you headed now? The Lewis estate?" Emeliano asked.
"I don't know... But I can stay at the Alfredo mansion for some days right?"
"Isn't that risky?" He asked.
"Yes, it is... We just got married personally. We need to spend some personal time together."
"What would Rafael think about that?"
"I wouldn't like it one bit!" Rafael's bitter voice sounded like a loud whistle to my ears... He charged towards us, pointing a gun straight at Emeliano and I. "Back from your Paris loving trip?"
"Oh lord." I whispered, feeling sick.
"Get behind me." Emeliano said in a low tone.
"No." I said almost too immediately. "I'm not going to let you stand at gun point."
"Neither am I."
"You think you could fool me?!" Rafael gave an evil laugh, his gun was firm in his grip. "You made me kill that bastard ex boyfriend of yours, but guess what he whispered to me before he died."
"No need to guess, that's why you're here right?" Emeliano shot at him.
"You think you've won? Ha!" Rafael looked insane, his face was red with anger, his legs were shaky beneath him... I knew he was about to wreck havoc... Serious one. "I will murder the both of you. I will never let you haveyour happy ending."
"You sound like an an evil villain for Barbie." Emeliano said, standing too comfortable, like he wasn't seeing the gun.
"You bastard. You ruined my life!" Rafael yelled at Emeliano.
"I ruined your life? Me? I think your mental illness is making you forget some certain things Rafael."
"Rafael please, I know you don't want to do this, just drop the gun and please leave us alone." I begged.
"Over my dead body."
"You made me do this to you... You're evil, you've manipulated everyone! I just had to teach you a lesson somehow. Despite the fact that you're a bastard. You're still my father, and I -" he cut me off .
"Enough!" Rafael yelled. "Now, which one of you do I kill first."
"Now you're finding it diff icult to decide too? Come on Rafael, you're on the field, you're supposed to know what to do next, if you don't make a move now, you'd be sent to the bleachers. Or, maybe you were never on the field, were you?"
"Shut up?"
"Why should I?"
"Emeliano what are you doing?" I gritted out.
"You have driven everyone close to you, you have ruined the life of everyone that has your last name. In fact, you have murdered people just because they got in your way, like you're about to do now..."
"Shut up."
"Just leave us alone Rafael, you can turn a new leaf, now that you still have the chance, but I'm sure you'd do that in jail cause, there's actually no safe haven for you-"
I could see it in his stance, the way he held the gun, his knuckles were turning too white and I knew he was going to pull the trigger. My heart was escalating with every word exchange between them.
"Stop talking." Rafael gritted out.
"Why? Cause you're finally realizing that you're losing? Cause you're-" The sound of the gun going off was the next thing I heard.
Bang bang bang!
