When I took my first step, everyone stood to see me, but I didn't notice them.

All I could see was Maddon, the man in about to marry. The music faded in my mind, the people vanished. A huge smile spread across my face as a little bit of tears came to his eyes.

It was so hard not to run down the aisle to him.

Kellan squeezes my arm as I went to stand by Maddon. Tears gathered in my eyes too.

I was already crying and the ceremony hasn't even begun.

"Hi," I smiled through my tears. People laughed.

"Hi," he laughed.

"Welcome all to the linkage of Maddon Crosgrove and Braelynn Cochran. We are thrilled to have you all here to enjoy this celebration of love," the priest said.

Susan was sniffing behind me, looking beautiful in her navy blue dress. It matched Maddon's suit which was also navy with gold detailing. It was fit for a king.
