Married Again
3 months later
I stand in a looking at myself in my wedding dress. Mary and Evie help me look my best for my and Jacob's wedding. I know that me and Jacob are already married but, we both, mostly me, wanted a real wedding. Then Mary leaves for a minute.
My dress was white, with a white corset. My hair was tied into a braided bun with a few strands of hair falling out. I look at my engagement ring, remembering that only 3 months ago Jacob asked me to marry, and them only 2 days after that me and Jacob basically eloped. I look up at the mirror. I take out mother's locket and open it. Looking at the picture of when mother was healthy, when father was truly happy, when me and Erik were innocent. Evie looks over at the locket.
" Is that your family?" Evie asks me. I nod and weakly smile.
" Yeah," I say. She holds out her hand wanting a closer look. I hand her the locket. She points to my mother.
" Was this your mother," I nod, " she was beautiful, your lucky, I don't even have a picture of mine," Evie hands me back the locket. Evie starts to look sad. I hug her, knowing the pain of losing a loved one. Mary comes back in.
" Are you ready Emily?" Mary asks me. I stand up and nod. I walk out of the dressing room. Once I'm out the door. I see my father smiling. I smile back. Father hugs me.
" You look so beautiful, if your mother were alive she would be crying right now," he says trying not to cry. I try not to cry.
" Papa, if you cry I'll cry," I say with a few tears running down my cheeks. Mary looks at us wide - eyed.
" Emily, if you cry anymore you will ruin your makeup," Mary says. I scoff.
" You know I never liked that stuff anyways," Mary rolls her eyes and hand me a tissue. Matter I wipe my eyes, me and father link arms. Then we walk walk down the aisle. I see that everyone stands. The wedding was relatively small. Aunt Mary and Uncle Benjamin came, Uncle Aleck came. Henry came, Erik came with his new fiancee, Victoria, came, she had red hair and blue eyes and was wearing a green dress. Frederick Abberline came, and a little girl named Clara. The church that we were in was small as well.
As me and father walk down the aisle. I see Jacob at the alter. He was wearing a black suite, with a white shirt, and red vest, and black dress shoes. When me and father reach the alter, father gives me a kiss on the cheek, and he hands me to Jacob. I smile up at Jacob, he smiles down at me. The priest at the alter motions for everyone to sit down. Once everyone sits. The priest starts the ceremony.
" We are gathered here today to join the union of Jacob Frye and Emily Drake, before we begin do we have any objections to why these two should not wed?" The priest say. I see Erik raise his hand a little, trying to make a joke. Victoria punches him in the arm. Erik laughs a little, " okay, may we begin? Jacob Frye do you take this woman to be you lawfully wedded wife, do you promise to protect her, to cherish her, to stay faithful to her as you both shall live?" Jacob nods
" I do," the priest nods.
" Emily Drake do you take this man to be you lawfully wedded husband, do you promise to protect him, to cherish him to stay faithful to him as you both shall live?" I nod.
" I do," the priest nods.
" Then by the power trusted in me I pronounce you man and wife, Jacob...... you may now kiss the bride," without any hesitation Jacob leans down and kisses me. Everyone stands up and clapped. Jacob pulls away. He puts a arm around my waist and I nuzzle into his chest.
Jacob takes my hand and walks me down the aisle. We exit the church and everyone says goodbye to us. Me and Jacob go into a blue carriage. Jacob cups my face and kisses me. I wraps my arms around his neck. About a few minutes later I pull away so I can breath. Jacob then looks out side the carriage window and he turns back to me.
" Close your eyes," he tells me.
" Why?" I ask a little curious.
" Just close them," he tells me. I sigh, and I close my eyes. After a minute or so the carriage stops. I fell Jacob get out of the carriage, " Okay come out now Emily," Jacob tells me, I follow the sound of his voice. I move to get out and Jacob helps me out so I won't trip and fall.
Jacob guides me towards something. Then he stops.
" Alright, you can open your eyes now," Jacob tells me. So I open my eyes. I see a house, it was a pretty good sized house. I was outside was brick and red. I look at Jacob.
" You bought a house?" I say to him.
" Yes I did, do you like it," Jacob asks.
" I think it's perfect," I say, " how many rooms does it have?" Jacob looks at me.
" 3, why?" Jacob asks me. I shrugged.
" Just wondering," I say.
" Do you want to look inside?" He asks and I nod. Then Jacob picks me up bridle style and carries me inside the house where we begin our new lives.
