Loving Miya

Prologue

I remember people telling me "Things will get better, there's always a light at the end of the tunnel" "Don't let a rainy day keep you down" I always waited for that light, or the day when the clouds would clear and the sun would rise to show me a path of happiness and joy, where the only things you hold onto from your past is the memories that kept you planted and reminded you of who you truly are. The sad thing is I knew from the very start I was bullshitted, but in the twist of events when that one tragic moment leads to a road of somewhat happiness is something I could bare.

Today is the day I start my journey on the same dull tarred road, but this time I will be holding, squeezing on to the hand of my happiness. Today is the day on which I marry the one person who was able to clear the clouds for me, the one who was holding the light when my journey of that tunnel was done. Today is the day where I finally see what love can hold between an armoured heart.

"Are you ready bro? It's time" my best friend and today my best man Jacob asks me "Hmm yeah man, just a little nervous. Is she here as yet?" I am not going to lie this has to be the most terrifying moment in my life; I love her I want to spend the rest of my life with here but what if she backs out. I doubt it, when did MY MIYA ever back out of anything she didn't believe in.

"Come on man you know Miya has always loved you as much as you love her, don't over think it, relax this is going to be a good day." he came over to the large mirror where I was standing and game me a brotherly hug and before he could leave he turned back once again and said " for the love of god Michael if you ever hurt gummies heart, I don't care about the history between us. I will come for you"

"I always knew you would pick her over me Jake, where's the fucking love!" I said in a whiny voice mocking him, but he knew if something would ever have to happen in this relationship I would be the one with the broken heart.

He gave me a look of understanding as if he knew what I was thinking and he said "I know Mike but she's like my baby sister and I would do everything to protect her." He gave my shoulder a squeeze as if to reassure me that it will be OK.

"Michael it's time to wait at the altar." This came from Pastor John; I walked over to both the pastor and Jake and told them "Its time for me to meet my wife guys!"They both smiled.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Standing here in this church with my heart in my hand waiting for the love of my life to take it. Has my nerves going all over the place. I turned away from the crowd and as soon as I did, I heard gasps and whispering, I quickly turned around, and what I saw brought tears to my eyes. There she stood at the entrance of the church looking like an angel with the most beautiful smile on her face. They way she looked at me with all that love and emotion swirling in those enchanting grey eyes was all it took for me to know I belong here with her on this day.

She walked up to me, it was if the world around us just stopped and it was only the two of us. What she said next brought a wide smile to my face " Mikey you ready to get this frickn party started?!" I bent down to her height and whispered in her ear"you bet I am!" before I could back away I cheekily kissed her cheek which caused the beautiful read tint to appear on her already rosy cheeks.

I heard someone clear their throat, I looked up and saw the pastor with a disapproving look and he said to me "Mr Brady will you please refrain from kissing Miss White until the ceremony is done." I looked up at him and sighed and then it began. It was the start of a new story for us, a new plot of what would happen in the future. It started with my pledge of love towards my happiness.

"I, Michael Brady take you, Miya White to be my wedded wife. With deepest joy I receive you into my life that together we may be one. I will be to you a loving and faithful husband. I promise you my deepest love, my fullest devotion, my tenderest care. I promise I will live first unto God rather than others or even you. I promise that I will lead our lives into a life of faith and hope. I pledge to you my life as a loving and faithful husband. I pledge to always love you Miya."

We exchanged our vows and she said the words I have been waiting for, she stared deeply into my eyes and began "I Miya White take you, Michael Brady, to be my wedded husband. With deepest joy I come into my new life with you. As you have pledged to me your life and love, so I too say to you Michael I will cherish the sweet moments we have when we are together , I will be there for you in your time of need and I will never stop loving you Mikey as I did fall in love with the first day I met you. I pledge to you my life as a loving, caring, and faithful wife .I Pledge to never stop loving you Mikey."

"You may kiss the bride" I grabbed her small heart shaped face between my hands and pulled her towards me and I seal my lips with hers, she immediately opens up for me, wanting to deepen the kiss, once our tongues touch I taste the familiar flavour of strawberries and chocolate, the flavour of Miya that will forever be ingrained in my mind. I kissed my wife; I savoured her taste, devoured it, and made it mine. Forever I will be loving Miya
