a blushing bride

"You look beautiful Rion" said the ladies in the room with me.

I was wearing a long white wedding dress. My sleeves draped over my shoulders, a corset top holding my figure in place the skirt fell to the floor. Hugging my hips widened at the upper thigh. My face covered in crystal gems and my hair styled in waves with gold beads and braids running through in random places. Golden chained garments adorned my body and on my head. I was beautiful. A blushing bride. Sera wore a lovely lavendar dress similar to mine but hers had flowy length to it and no jewelry except for a gold chained head piece and a gold bangle that matched mine

I was barefoot with gold jewelry on my feet.

The wedding was in the garden out back. And not the vegetable one I frequented, but the floral one meant for guests.

People were piling into the yard.

The ceremony was about to begins.

My nerves were shot. I was trembling. Glad I didn't eat breakfast or I might puke all over my dress.

As custom dictated my father lead the family down the isle. My brothers followed oldest to youngest. And then before me was my best friend Sera and walking with me was my mother. She held my hand at the level of my stomach making me light on my feet I gracefully followed my family up to the altar where…

Are those the 3 Sisters? Ah hell. What are they doing here?

Wait.

They're the ones officiating it?

That's a big deal.

I thought I was nervous before now I think im gonna faint. I've never fainted a day in my life. But think I might now.

My family takes their spot at the front of the audience and Sera standing beside me. And then Theos family came into view first his father, then his two older brothers, then Carter and then him.

Wow he was the most gorgeous person I've ever seen. His hair actually combed and styled back. He looked princely. He wore a white jacket embroidered with gold designs. Matching perfectly with me. He wore a golden leaf crown atop his head. He walked barefoot to me.

T: are those the Sisters standing decide you?

O: yep sure is

T: todays going to be interesting.

O: hurry down here already

T: I'm coming as fast I can

Theo and Orion stand at the alter in front of Elysium.

Palm to palm they face each other with both their marks touching.

The Sister three chant together:

"On this day, in this hour, death is tamed by life"

"On this day, in this hour, a union brought to light"

"On this day, in this hour, spoken have the Gods"

"On this day, in this hour, we have heard their will"

"We Sisters Three; Maiden, Mother, Crone bless thee through the words of Gods"

"So shall it be"

The crowd mutters "so shall it be"

Theo and Orion kiss and as they kiss day turned to night. Black the sky went; the sun turned white. And then in a flash it was normal again.

The crowd murmured amongst themselves suprised at the Gods response to the union.

"Well it seems Nexes god of the Netherworld and Atlas god of the Sky bless the union." The Crone says.

"Let's go have a party!" Shouted the Maiden who takes off down the isle. Then two other Sisters laughing.
