1 We grew up together

She has never looked so beautiful, it's a small ceremony but I'll plan better in the future. We met when we were seven and yet it seems like forever. We should hate each other by instinct but all instincts did for us was give long intoxicating nights. I blink as she says "I do" and realize I'm now looking at my wife. She smiles at me, waiting for me to kiss her, I let her wait a moment in anticipation as I close my eyes and get closer, that's it. She's now officially my wife.

I reminisce in the memory of our first kiss.

She called me and said she had broken up with her boyfriend and needed consolation. I came at the speed of light or so it had seemed. Her mother answered the door and gave me an ugly look, lily came out and practically jumped in my arms in relief as I held her. We woke up on the stoop when her mom went to work, but not before giving me another ugly look. It was decided she'd stay at my apartment over the weekend and at that moment, I was in shock for she has never even spent the night.

I've asked her out more times than I could have counted, but that day I knew would be the day she said yes when she came out in a bikini instead of a one piece like normal, I tried to look away like a gentlemen. We got into the pool and swam in silence until she asked me to carry her like a princess in the water, again I was in shock because I have never touched her like that. We danced for what seemed like forever and when she got comfortable she told me the reason she left her boyfriend. we had been best friends and as expected I was the reason yet again, he gave her the ultimatum of staying with him or staying with me, and she chose me. She tried to tell him that nothing was going on or had ever happened between us that I had treated her better than he ever has, I became serious and said "I treat you better because you deserve better, you know how I feel" she looked at me in the eyes with hers filled with curiosity, "no I don't".

I explained all the things I loved about her that I was in love with her and everything went quiet. She studied me for a while, and got down from my arms though still holding me. We leaned slowly towards each other, like there was a powerful magnet, until our lips finally touched with familiarity, and my chest was filled with a burning desire that I knew I couldn't hold.
