London, UK - January 2022 (Marylebone Town Hall)

It was raining again. A sleek black car parked outside of town hall, and the couple stepped out of the car hand in hand. They smiled affectionately at each other. A joy glittered in their eyes, tender when they shot admiring looks towards each other when they made their way inside, sheltering themselves from the cold temperatures.

Hands intervened, their shoes clanked against the granite floors when they walked through the white marvelled, empty corridors until they reached wall-length massing door. The couple stopped before the door and turned to face each other. 'Are you ready?' She asked softly, her voice carrying through the empty hall when she admired the man standing before her. He kissed her hand affectionately and murmured. 'Always, love. I was yours the moment we met.' A teasing smile appeared on her face when she gently capped his face to her hand, caressing his cheek and his messy beard. 'Not sure if I can say the same about you, darling.' He huffed, mocked hurt, but his happy eyes gave him away, knowing the journey to react to that point, and they were ready for a new chapter.

He moved his face inches from her, flashing a flirty smile to her. 'We'll see about that.' He whispered, lips millimetres from hers. Her eyes fluttered half-shut, and a brief winning smile passed his lips. Before he had a chance to close the paper-thin gap, the minister flipped the heavy wooden doors open, an unamused look on his face. 'Shall we wait until you're officially married?' The couple flashed an embarrassed smile and took some distance in their embrace.

'Sebastian Vettel and Scarlette Smith?' The minister looked down at a sheet on his hand before lifting his eyes to eye the couple more detail. 'Ready to get married today?' Scar eyed Seb quickly before she curtly nodded to the minister. 'Always, sir.' A dry smile appeared to the old gentleman's features. 'Let's do then. Please walk down to the end of the room, and we'll get started.'

The elderly gentleman walked in front of them more profound to the high ceiled room with arches. Their steps echoed against the flooring, yet they shot nervous and admiring gazes at each other. They were finally becoming one after the heavy debate where they would elope. They stopped before the mock altar, and the minister stood opposite of them, clearing his throat. 'Any questions on the process before we begin?' Scar and Seb shook their heads. Both of them had done it before, sharing amusing looks. 'That's a first.' the gentlemen muttered, to Scar's utter astonishment. 'Who are your witnesses?'

'They should be -' Seb turned around. '-here.' He shot a confused look towards his fiance, who shrugged as she was equally clueless. The minister sighed impatiently. 'I cannot marry you without witnesses. It was clearly stated in the regulations book as one of the non-negotiable items.' A disapproving look was given to the couple. 'If you don't have witnesses, it leaves me no other option than-'

'WE'RE HERE! WE'RE HERE!' Scar and Seb turned around to see Emily and Daniel running across the room before they stopped behind the couple.

Scar shot daggers at Emily. 'Why are you late?' She hissed angrily when Emily gave her a sheepish smile. As soon as Scar took in Emily's flushed cheeks, glossy eyes, she rolled her eyes. 'You couldn't wait until the ceremony is done? Then you could have boned like rabbits?' Emily muttered something under her breath, clearly embarrassed. Seb cheered and shot an amusing look towards Scar before he grabbed her hand. 'They're here now. Shall we?' His tone was a soft delegate. This swapped them back to their bubble, and the minister began the ceremony. 'Dear Scarlette and Sebastian, we are gathered here today...'

The couple locked their eyes, swimming in solid emotion, travelling through their journey that led them there. All their ups and downs. 'Scarlette and Sebastian, are you ready for your vowes now?' They nodded eagerly and turned to face one another.

'Repeat after me, Sebastian. I -'

'I Sebastian Vettel take you Scarlette Alexandra Smith to be my wedded wife.' Seb began, and Daniel handed over the diamond ring. Seb flashed a floppy grin to hide his nervousness when his fingers felt the sleek, cool medal in-between his fingers. 'I give you this ring as a sign of our love, trust and marriage. I promise to care for you above all others, to give you my love, friendship, trust and support, and to respect and cherish you throughout our life together.' Seb said when he sledged the wedding ring to Scar's ring finger. Once in place, he bent to give it a soft kiss, memories of their bumpy journey flashing through his mind, coming to a full circle of promises.

When he lifted his head up, he saw emotional Scar before him, tears glittering in her eyes. 'Scar-' he exhaled. 'I'm fine.' She mouthed, taking a deep breath. 'I Scarlette Alexandra Smith, take you Sebastian Vettel to be my wedded husband.' Her voice shook, and she put the ring to his ring finger with shaky hands. 'I give you this ring as a sign of our love, trust and marriage. I promise to care for you above all others, to give you my love, friendship, trust and support, and to respect and cherish you throughout our life together.'

It was Seb's turn to be an emotional mess, and sloppy grins appeared on their faces when their emotions caught up, and the joyful tears glittered in their eyes. 'Well, then. It is my pleasure to announce you, husband and wife. Now you can continue where you left off before the ceremony.' The minister boomed cheekily, causing Emily and Daniel to share confused looks. Scar stepped forward, straight into Seb's embrace before their lips connected to a sensual kiss, feeding their feelings through their bodies. When they separated to gasp air, their foreheads stayed touched, eyes closed. 'I love you with all my heart.' Her heart sang of happiness, and butterflies exploded in her tummy, creating an intimate feeling across her frame. 'I love you too.'

'Wuhuu, you guys are married!' Emily's screaming broke their intimate moment. Seb and Scar turned around, their arms around each other to face their friends, who approached them with broad smiles on their faces. 'Congrats, sweetie.' Emily murmured to Scar's ear, thick with emotion, when she gave the blonde a crushing hug. She let go of her to turn to tackle Seb into a tight hug, whereas Scar welcomed Daniel's congratulations. 'So happy for you, guys. The dream team is finally hitched.' Scar giggled at his words and thanked him when he went to untackle Emily out of Seb's personal space. Scar's heart swooned bigger when she witnessed their interactions towards each other, the sneaky glances and touches when they thought she wasn't looking.

Seb had appeared next to her and given her a gentle peck, eyes sparkling in love. 'Ready to smile for the camera?' Seb teased and pecked top of her nose, which she sniffed at playfully. 'We need photos for our collection so we can show them to our grandkids in the squeaky chair at the old age.' Seb burst out laughing at her statement, capturing her lips yet again.

She nudged him when they strolled out from the room as the next couple was due to get married at any minute. Also, they hoped they would stay under the ray yard, and the press wouldn't find out about their low key ceremony. 'How do you feel about the elopement?' Seb asked quietly and stopped his tracks, worry visible on his features even if it had been her request when he had proposed. She reached over to press her lips softly against his before murmuring: 'Over the moon. I couldn't be happier. We have everything that was needed here, excluding the little monsters at home.' He squeezed her waist affectionately. 'They're with us in spirits.

As you know, we have a wedding party waiting for us in Switzerland.' Seb glanced at their sides before dropping his voice to the husk level. I'll always choose you, Mrs Vettel.' Her eyes swam in the content before grinning at him. 'Right back ya!'
