Paint Chip of the Day: Smooth Marbled Violet
I sniffed the
beautiful flowers in my hands. Smooth marbled violet. I sighed. I put it back
into the vase with many others like it.
Today is the
day. The day I get married. I’ve been dreaming about this day since I was a
little girl. Mom’s magical tales only fed my fantasies. But it really is here. I have a handsome fiancĂ© and a
perfect wedding. Anywhere is perfect, really, as long as I have him. Do you
really believe in true love? In this moment, I certainly do, but I can’t say
for the future.
“Kat! Let’s
go!” one of my friends called. I let the while silk veil cover my face.
Feeling
nervous, I walked down the aisle with my dad. Glancing around, I saw familiar
faces. They were all smiling. I gulped and kept walking. Step by step. 1, 2, 3.
I was careful not to step on the wedding gown. Step, step. We’re almost there.
I never want this day to end. I see him standing there. My fiancé, my lover, my
perfect other half.
The grass
rustled beneath my feet and his chocolate brown hair billowed through the wind.
His emerald green eyes, more vibrant than the glass, seem more alive than ever,
piercing me with his gaze, as if he could see right through me. A corner of his
mouth eased up into a half smile.
I didn’t even
notice as I stood with him. The priest rattled off stuff but I didn’t hear. All
I could see was him. I vaguely remembered both of us saying, “I do.” Then it
was the moment. The moment we kiss. “Ready, Kat?” he whispered only for my
ears. I looked into his emerald eyes. I knew
without a doubt. After all we’ve been through, this is perfect. We leaned
toward each other while we still locked our eyes together. A faint whisper of
his lips. I could feel his breath, tickling my face. Then he kissed me. I could
feel the feather touch of his lips on mine. Then he firmly pressed his lips.
Cheers went through the audience.
My favorite flower,
smooth marbled violet, was tossed into the air. I grinned goofily at him, drunk
of the moment. He gave me his famous half grin.
“We have
forever now, KittyCat.”
