While Alexis got ready in her bridal suite, the rest of us surrounded her, helping her with her veil and her beautiful lace white dress.
She made an astonishingly beautiful bride and we were happy for her. I was fixing some pins her hair when Alexis looked at me in the mirror and smiled. The rest of the women were making sure her dress had no creases and gathered no dust or dirt.
“I just wanted to say, if I don’t say this often enough, how lucky I feel to be a part of this family,” she said and patted my hand on her shoulder.
“Oh, hun. We are all very lucky to have you!” Lila said and came over to kiss Alexis’ cheek. She was emotional today, as we all were. This was a happy day for all of us. A day for us to celebrate together and the past behind us.
“Group hug!” Jordan said and all of us gathered around Alexis to give her a hug. Kaya who was going to be her maid of honor, even had a tear in her eye. She was nearly four months pregnant with Oz’ baby now and beginning to show.
“Sorry, my hormones are driving me nuts!” she complained, dabbling at her damp cheeks. I threw an arm around her and squeezed.
We fell back into our usual happy chatter, anticipating how the boys were going to look in their handsome tuxedos. Alexis was right, it was the most comforting feeling in the world—to know that not only did I have the love and support of a good, strong man. But that I also had the love and support of these wonderful women and the rest of the club.
In the past three months of knowing them, they had never let me down. They had helped me out with Amanda every time I needed help and were always there for me with advice and wisdom.
Finally, it was time for Alexis to walk down the aisle and her brother, Oz, was waiting at the door to walk her down.
We surrounded her and helped her out with her dress till Oz caught her hand. Everyone at the church stood up and nobody had a dry eyes as the music started playing.
I caught Dash’s eye in the crowd. He was standing in the front, waiting for me and he smiled. He looked handsome in his tuxedo, his dark hair slicked back and neat. While Alexis walked down the aisle with Kaya, Jordan and Lila, and Amanda behind her of course, I found my way to the front to stand with Dash.
He grabbed my hand as soon as I got there and pulled me close.
“Hello, beautiful,” he said, in the way he always greeted me.
They were exchanging their vows and there was complete silence in the church. Dash and I were holding hands the whole time. It was beautiful watching Abe and Alexis up there, speaking to each other from the bottom of their hearts. Neither of them had prepared the vows beforehand.
“…and I wake up every morning and look at you and think I am the luckiest man in the world. I don’t know what I did to deserve you, to deserve your love. A beautiful woman with a heart of gold. And even though you will never shut up, I love you more every day.”
There was some laughter amongst us at that. Alexis laughed too, but not before she’d rolled her eyes at that first.
When the priest asked them to kiss, we all jumped off our chairs and clapped. I could see the other girls crying at the exquisite beauty of this moment and I felt like a sentimental fool for wanting to cry too.
Dash pulled me into his arms in the middle of the applause and kissed me. He threw his arms around me and I sank into him, kissing him like there was no tomorrow. But there was tomorrow. There was the rest of our lives to live and I couldn’t wait to see what else there was in store for us.
“I can’t wait to do this with you,” Dash whispered in my ear when he pulled away from me. My hand was on his chest and the big diamond engagement ring glittered on my finger. It filled my heart with joy to think that we would be exchanging vows like these in a few months.
Alexis and Abe were married and were now running down the aisle amidst applause and petals being thrown at them.
Dash still had an arm tightly wound around me as we watched them and clapped.
“Are you happy?” he asked all of a sudden, leaning close to me to say. I looked at him with my brows crossed.
“Dash, I’ve never been happier,” I said and smiled at him. Didn’t he see how happy he made me? How content I was in this life with him?
“I want you to tell me, if there is ever anything I can do to make you even happier. Because I want to see you like this every day. Smiling like this,” he said. We were facing each other now, looking into each other’s faces.
“I don’t think I can be any happier. My heart will explode if I even try!” I protested with a laugh and before I knew what he was going to do, he’d lifted me up in his arms and was kissing me again.
He swung me in his arms as he kissed me and I couldn’t contain my laughter. I had never imagined happiness like this. I didn’t know I deserved to be happy, and now Dash had proven to me that there was so much hope. All I needed was for us to be together forever.
