🌹CHAPTER FORTY - SIX🌹

A YEAR LATER

My wedding day. Finally it is here. We have waited so long for this day but it's here and we're finally getting married. I'm finally becoming his wife. The love between us is so strong and now we're finally making it official. Bellatrix is the sweeties baby girl that has ever existed and she is the best daughter in the world.

I smile when I think about her. My mom is watching over while I'm getting myself ready so she doesn't ruin my wading dress. But I can't wait until I have her in my arm once again. Ever since she was born I've barely been able to let other people hold her.

Alexander told me that it's just my mother instinct and that this is normal which my mom did actually say was true since she went through the same. However, working and being away from her is worse than anything because I just want her to be with me and I want to hold her and kiss her and tell her that I love her.

I smile at myself in the mirror as I watch my wedding dress. The white dress that costs more than I can count but Alexander gave me his card to buy a dress and my mom and Lena made sure that I was getting a dress that was worthy of me and I have to say that this dress makes me look beautiful.

I may have looked beautiful before putting it on but it brings out this shrine in me. As I watch myself and wait for the time finally to be married to the love of my life, I think of all the things that we've been through. And how much we've survived together.

We have been through so much and always come out the top. We've nearly died but we did survive it, both of us and we are still together and now we're going to spend the rest of our lives together with each other. This adventure that we've had is the joy that I wish I will never lose now that I've found it.

The pain is all behind me and while I may still get confused of what happened in the coma and how strange it sometimes can be, I can still say that the pain is in the past and now we can only look at the future and all the joy and happiness that is waiting for us in the years to come.

Finally it is time and I walk to the doors that open when I push them slightly and in the wedding dress I meet my dad who walks me down the aisle to the man that I love with the music playing all around and my eyes meet Alexander's and I can't help but smile at him who is standing there with the same joy on his face.

I hold Bellatrix in my arms as I kiss her face so many times. Her cheeks and her forehead and her nose and just hug her tightly but not too tightly to hurt her, I would never hurt her. "I'm going to miss you so much but you'll be good with grandma" I say but she's barely listening.

She is so focused on the neckline that I wear around my neck and smile and roll my eyes at her. "Call if there is anything" I tell my mom and she chuckles. "Don't worry. Nothing is going to happen, I raised you and you came out all right. I think I can handle this one too" She tells me and I smile.

"I know, I'm just-" I begin but I'm cut off. "Paranoid, yeah. I've been there" She says and I put Bellatrix on the ground before I hug my mom. Then I go down on my knees and look at my baby girl. "We'll be back in five days. I love you. Never forget that, my love" I tell her and hug her one last time as I turn around and head for the car where Alexander is waiting for me.

He had already hugged her and told her goodbye but I was bit longer at it then he was and I needed to tell her so many times that I was not leaving her for long. As soon as I'm in the car I feel this longing to be with her again and run to her, like I always do when I go working.

"Well, to the airport we go, wife" Alexander says to me and smirks at me. "Where are we going.... husband?" I ask him. It is kind of strange that we're not husband and wife. We're officially married to one another and this day is the happiest one of my entire life.

It's unreal to me that I'm actually married. That is something that I never thought was going to happen but now it has and I'm so happy about and I'm so happy that I'm married to him. "That is a surprise, since I know that you love them so I much" He tells me and smirks at me.

I roll my eyes. He certainly does love to present me with surprises when he perfectly knows that I'm not one that likes surprises and I am a rather impatient person. "You're mean" I tell him as I playfully frown at him and try to act like I'm hurt but it's not working that great since this day just makes me happy and the smile on my face never wants to leave.

My cheeks and jaw are hurting so much from smiling that much but none of that matters to me. My heart feels this happiness like never before and it's the most amazing feeling in the world. "I know. I'm not known for being kind. But, I'll give you a hint since I've been told I do have a soft spot for my new wife" He says with a grin on his face.

"And what might that hint be?" I ask him and he chuckles. "Well, let's see. It's a place where I'm going to spend every second of every day with my beautiful wife-" He starts but I raise an eyebrow at him and he rolls his eyes. "All right, we're going Australia" He tells me and I gasp.

Australia has been one of the countries that I've been wanting to visit one day and we're going there on our honeymoon. I don't even know how this day can get any better by now. Since every one of my dreams is coming true and the rest of our happy lives are just beginning.

I pull him in for a kiss. "Thank you" I tell him and he smiles at me. "If would do anything for a kiss from you" He says and I roll my eyes at that. We arrive at the airport and then we go into his private plane where we will be for a couple of hours since it will take some time to get to Australia.

But I can't wait for us to be there and spend our honeymoon together there. When we're in the plane I change out of the wedding dress and into some pajamas and I sit down on the seat beside him and put the back out and some rest of the feet.

I have a blanket over my body and a pillow for my head and I'm ready to sleep. Alexander has already fallen into a deep slumber since he was so tired, just like me and since we're going to be in this plane for some time, we best try to get some sleep so that we can spend more time when we do land in Australia together.

With a smile on my face (that truly has not left my face and clearly doesn't want to leave any time soon) I take his hand into mine and close my eyes to try to catch some sleep but not before long I find myself opening my eyes once more. The excitement inside my whole body is keeping me awake and it's harder than I had thought to go to sleep.

I look over at Alexander to see that he's sleeping like a cat in the seat and I kind of envy him right about now because I want to be sleeping like that. I stand up and walk over to a window that doesn't have blinds over it and watch outside and down at the world down below.

It looks so beautiful to see the world so far down and everything is like ants down there but there is still beauty. I take a couple of pictures since I promised my mom that I would take a lot of since she likes to know what happened and then of course Lena who will be annoying me to the end of the earth (which is never ending) until I tell her every single detail of our honeymoon.

I lightly giggle when I think about it and when my baby girl, Bellatrix comes to mind I can only sigh in happiness. I have been so blessed with a family like mine. The betrayals and the pain only strengthened our bond and brought us closer and now there are no secrets between us anymore or I hope there aren't.

Alexander and I tell each other everything. Sometimes there are times that we just sit in our bed and speak about how we feel. Sometimes we talk about how we felt about the day or something deeper than that but letting the feelings out and having someone listen is something that we both enjoy.

"Penny for your thoughts" Alexander says sweepingly beside me and I smile when I see how tired he is and how he doesn't want to be awake. "You know as well as I do that my thoughts are worth more than a penny" I tell him. This joke has actually been an inside joke for some time or a year I think it has been now and it never grows old for us.

"I know and that is why I'm going to offer you ten thousand dollars to tell me what you're thinking" He says and yawns. I look up to see that he's having a hard time keeping himself awake. I take his hand and lead him back to the seat where I make him sit down and lie and I put the blanket over his body.

I sit down in my seat and kiss his cheek. "I was thinking about lucky I am to have such an amazing family and how lucky I am to have you" I tell him but I'm not sure if he had heard me since he is once again taken into sleep and I wonder if he even woke at all or if he was sleepwalking.

I'm not sure if he does sleepwalk since I sleep throughout the nights but if he did sleepwalk now then that answers my question. I lie back down and with a smile on my face and my hand holding his which I don't want to let and the happiness shining through my heart and all the way through my whole body and to the smile on my face.

Pulling the blanket over my body and getting myself into a comfortable position and allow the darkness to swallow me whole as I'm met with the dreams that I never want to leave as they show exactly how happy my life is and that dream is actually real which I never want to let go of.

My life is perfect. I have it all and I don't think I will need anything else in my life ever again and as we are flying for our honeymoon, I can't help but feel like the stars have aligned for us and the world has blessed us with endless happiness that we are going to live in every single day and there is no one else that I would rather spend with than Alexander and our daughter and my family.
