Wicked Kiss
Chapter 45: Unfortunate Wedding

My gown was exceedingly long. It is 8 meters long, making it look so gorgeous.

I sigh.

Today is my wedding day. I should be happy, but I am not. I always push myself to accept this already but its just too hard. I couldn't, I couldn't imagine this. I sigh again.

My wedding is on evening. That's what he wanted me to see this day on December 25th. He wanted it this way so I could have a glimpse of the wonderful stars. Yes, funny right? This day is my wedding day, and also, this day is Christmas day. I should be happy. Because this the day of giving and.... Loving.

But I just can't.

I am sitting on a white bridal car. I am with Mira and the driver. I did not talk to Mira ever since she's with me. I know she understands it anyway.

"Miss Erza. I totally understands you, I even thought that Sir As will be your husband. " she said, trying to make me smile.

And I did not.

She went silent again. But she's really trying her best to make me smile in this day full of abnormality.

"Did you know Miss Erza when I first met my husband. It's like cupid shoot me hard. Especially the first night with him." She said that made me smile a bit. This girl.

"I know how you love that feeling too, Miss." she said then giggled.

"What feeling are you talking about? " I said not looking at her.

"You know.. the uhmm. Jugjug- ah-ah, " She said that made me frown.

"Huh?"

She rolled her eyes and raised her bot hands with a form of stick and hole and collided them both.

"Sex!" she said excitedly.

"At first, painful but tickling right, Miss? But damn good in the end?" She said so I only rolled my eyes.

When we're already at the Church door. I can't understand the feeling. Scared, nervous and some other things I couldn't explain.

The firearms are a lot. From the main gate, garage, and parking. They are probably inside the church too.

The bell rang, indication that the bride is here.

We were strangers

Starting out on a journey

Never dreaming

What we'd have to go through

Now here we are

And I'm suddenly standing

At the beginning with you

The voice is very magical. The music was slow and emotional.

No one told me

I was going to find you

Unexpected

What you did to my heart

When I lost hope

You were there to remind me

This is the start

I can see the bride's maids and flower girls walking.

My mother was on my right and Napoleon on the left. I wanted to screw them both but I'm helpless. And...

Life is a road

And I want to keep going

Love is a river

I wanna keep flowing

Life is a road

Now and forever

Wonderful journey

I am crying for the fact that I will be tied up with someone I don't love.

If only I can run away.

I'll be there

When the world stops turning

I'll be there

When the storm is through

In the end I wanna be standing

At the beginning with you

The lyrics of the song is killing me too. I just hope my baby will understand this one day.

We were strangers

On a crazy adventure

Never dreaming

How our dreams would come true

Now here we stand

Unafraid of the future

At the beginning with you

I don't want this to end like this but I have no choice. I will do this because I have someone to protect.

And...

Life is a road

And I want to keep going

Love is a river

I wanna keep flowing

Life is a road

Now and forever

Wonderful journey

I'll be there

When the world stops turning

I'll be there

When the storm is through

In the end I wanna be standing

At the beginning with you

The people might be thinking that the tears coming out on my eyes were tears of joy. Without realizing that I am so miserable.

I knew there was somebody somewhere

Like me alone in the dark

Now I know my dream will live on

I've been waiting so long

Nothing's gonna tear us apart

And...

Life is a road

And I want to keep going

Love is a river

I wanna keep flowing

Life is a road

Now and forever

Wonderful journey

I'll be there

When the world stops turning

I'll be there

When the storm is through

In the end I wanna be standing

At the beginning with you

The song ended when they delivered me to Sir Al on the altar.

He is smiling but I can feel that he's faking it. I don't understand why I am having this cold vibe on him.

I didn't look at him again and just prayed silently that I wanted this over now.

"Please, be seated. " the priest said to everyone.

We were both standing in front of the priest. He is talking something, but I just couldn't understand a thing. I was just there, praying to God to save me.

I know I hurt him, but we are not for each other. We are not meant to be married.

"Who's not agreed to this marriage?" the priest asked to the crowed.

No one answered so the priest continued.

My hope is slowly fading. I guess I have to accept this already. This is the end of me and I feel sick.

He was in the middle of the sacrament speech when the lights went off.

I blinked because the wedding is evening and we can't see a thing. I guess a blackout.

I can hear some of the murmurs. They are saying that what's happening is stupid.

Everyone went silent when we heard the door creaked opened and there is someone walking fast with a flashlight.

It was too bright; everyone will cover their eyes every time it crosses them and me too when it started running straight to the aisle.

We can't see anything but that bright light, we can't even tell who's holding it.

The one holding it was in the middle of running straight to the altar when he heard a loud thud. Seems like someone fell. "Huwaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh!!!! Mommyy! Huk. Huk."

My eyes widen from the voice crying.

M-my baby. What is he doing here?

I was about to step off to the altar to see my baby when Sir Al held my biceps.

"Don't " He said when he seemed to have an idea what was going on.

The light came back, and everyone gasp upon seeing my baby crying while rolling down on the red carpet.

I wanted to cry and laugh because of my baby. He saved me.

He was wearing a white tuxedo and the bright light was on his forehead.

"Mommy!!!" he shouted and made a tantrum on the carpet. He raised his both arms asking me to carry him.

I went to him immediately and I heard how people dramatically gasp.

"What's the meaning of this ERZA!!" Napoleon shouted.

"Erza! Put that kid down and continue your marriage. " my mom said.

I wanted to tell them "In your Fucking Dreams. " but I stopped myself.

"What's happening, who is this kid. "

My eyes widen upon seeing Miss Launxi Grayfaurd that is walking towards us.

"Mama, let's go back, " Athrina Grayfaurd whispered.

"I'm so sorry madame. Don't worry, we well do SOMETHING about this." My mom said.

I don't know but it hurts that she's ruining my life again and again. Hunk is his grandson; how merciless she is that she's trying to ruin our lives.

"Mommy, I'm hungry. " my baby said that made them gasp again.

I saw how Launxi stared to my son. I couldn't see any expression on her face. She's just staring to me and my baby.

I wanted to tell baby Hunk that it's her grandmother who's looking at him intently.

"He's your son, Erza?" Miss Miss Launxi asked.

I didn't utter a word and just nodded.

She smiled and look at my back.

"Our son, mama. " Astrair said then held me from the waist.

"No wonder." Her mom said and smiled.

"Wedding is off." She said and went to Aiken Grayfaurd and whispered something.

He just nodded.

Napoleon and my mom were irritated and angry, but in the end they just sighed.

I looked at Sir Al who's coldly looking at us. His cold stares really give chills.

I pursed my lips.

I don't want to hurt him, but I don't want to please him and hurt my son as well. I couldn't. life is unfair.

For the last time. I smiled to him and turned my back.

"I'm sorry, we're late. " Astrair whispered on my ear.
