BONUS: THE WEDDING

Eva's POV


"How you doing Honey?" Mom asked from somewhere in the room while Casey was putting the final touches on my make-up.


"I'm okay just a little nervous" I responded. That was a total understatement. The butterflies in my stomach were fluttering non-stop and I felt like I was going to pass out.


"That's expected. When I married your father, I passed out twice from the nerves" she said with a laugh. Gabriel's Mom, Aunt, Casey and I giggled.



"I couldn't stop crying on my Wedding Day" Gabriel's mother said in a dreamy sigh "I couldn't even walk down the aisle. Anthony had to find me and calm me down before carrying me down the aisle" she said and everyone squealed.


"That's so cute!" My mom said and Mrs. Green laughed.


"It might seem cute now, but back then it was the worst"


"But was it worth it?" I asked and she smiled gently at me.


"It was worth this life and the next"she said and there was a knock on my door. Mr. Green and Kaden stuck their heads inside and smiled at us.


"Well, well, well. I haven't seen these many pretty women in one room in such a long time" Mr. Green said and everyone blushed.

Mrs. Green slapped his chest before kissing his cheek and shooing everyone out of my room. Only my mother, Kaden, and the Green's stayed with me.


"Is it time?" I asked. My heart was pounding and nerves were taking over.


"Almost," Kaden said "Uncle Tony just came to see how you're doing and escort Aunt Jen and your Mom to their seats"


Mr. Green came up to me and hugged me before pulling something out of his jacket pocket. Mrs. Green stepped up and opened it before grabbing my wrist gently. She place a beautiful bracelet on my wrist, one that matched the necklace my father gave me on my 18th birthday, identically.


I gasped, tears filling my eyes.


"What?" I choked "How did you..."



"We know your father couldn't be here Eva, and for that we are truly sorry. We wanted to give you something to always remember that not only is he with you but so are we" Mr. Green said as Mrs. Green fastened the bracelet. I hugged and thanked them for everything they have done for me. Mom stepped forward and handed me a neatly wrapped present.


I opened it and gasped again.


"Mom..." I started but she shushed me "Don't start Eva. This is something I wanted you to have from me. You can't have a matching necklace and bracelet without a pair of matching earrings"


I hugged her and thanked her for everything.

"Now if you'll excuse us" Mr. Green said "I think it's time to take these lovely women to their seats. The show is starting in a couple of minutes"

They hugged me one last time before leaving my room.


Kaden came up and gave me a tissue.



"You're gonna ruin your make-up before the ceremony even starts" he said and I laughed.


"I think it's a little late for that" I said "How's Gabriel doing?"


"He's going nuts. This is the longest time he's been away from you and he keeps pacing up and down. Gavin even threatened to strap him to his chair if he didn't stop" I laughed.


"So he isn't nervous?"


"No, it's more like he's excited to finally be marrying you. The grin hasn't left his face yet" my heart swooned.


"So you ready to finally tie the knot?" Kaden asked, swiftly changing the subject after noticing my nervousness.


"It just doesn't feel real Denny" I said, using my nickname for him. "It feels like I'm in a dream and at any moment, I'll wake up and find out it wasn't real"


Kaden sat next to me and hugged my shoulders. "I won't pretend to know what you're going though because we both know I don't. But I know my cousin and I know you. Both of you were made for each other with or without the Mate Bond. Yes, there will be ups and downs but if anyone could overcome it, it would you two. Today I won't be gaining another cousin, no, I'll be gaining an older sister." He said and I hugged him tightly.


"You little twerp" I said in-between my laughs "You made me cry!"



He just laughed and hugged me tight one last time before standing up and giving me his elbow. "It's time princess"


I took a deep breath and stood up. We exited my room and made our way to the middle of the Church.


"You know, for a 14 year old, you sure are mature" I said and he chuckled.


"Why thank you" he said just before the music starting playing and the doors opened.

Gabriel's POV


"You ready Bro?" Gavin asked me while we were standing at the alter. I rolled my eyes and slapped his head.


"If I wasn't ready I wouldn't be standing her you Idiot" I said and he glared at me.


"Boys behave" Our mother hissed as she, dad, and Mrs. Taylor walked to their seats.


"Tell your Son to stop hitting me Mom" Gavin whined.


"Gabriel wouldn't have hit you if you didn't do something stupid" she said and I smirked at Gavin. "Now be serious! For God's Sake! It's your Wedding Gabriel!" She said before sitting in the front pew. Dad smirked at us and Gavin glared at me.


I heard the music play and the doors to the Church opened.

When I saw her walking down, I nearly died. She was a goddess in white and I couldn't believe my eyes. Everyone in the Church was quiet, and I was sure they were just as flabbergasted as me.


Kaden brought her to the alter and gave her away. She whispered something in his ear and he blushed before going to stand next to Gavin, Sebastian, and the twins.


"You look beautiful" I whispered and I saw her blush through the veil.


"Dearly Beloved, we are gather here today..." the Priest began.





Eva's POV


"Ladies and Gentlemen, Please welcome Mr. And Mrs. Gabriel Green!" The MC announced as we walked through the doors.


Everyone cheered and I felt the blush rising up my neck.



"Now please clear the dance floor, so that Mr. And Mrs. Green can have their first dance as a married couple!"



"May I have this dance Mrs. Green?" Gabriel asked me and I blushed.



"Of Course Mr. Green" I said and he beamed a bright smile.



"Did you ever think that this would happen?" He asked as we danced to a slow song. I laid my head on his chest and shook my head.



"Honestly, yes. When I first saw you in that classroom, I knew that you were different. What I didn't know is how different you were and how much I would love you" I said and Gabriel chuckled.


"Well when I first saw you, I knew something that you didn't" he said. I pulled my head off his chest and looked at him weirdly.



What?" I asked


"That you would be mine forever" he said before kissing me passionately.
