You may kiss the bride.

Alice Stone

The wedding was happening in an hour, everyone was seated in the church. The crowd made me wonder how much influence both families had.

The church was huge and decorated, the reception wasn't going to be held there, they had rented a hall just to make this wedding come true, while i thought about how my sister would spend the rest of her life. I was scared and ready to do anything to protect her.

Gerald was looking good as usual, seated there and waiting for the bride to come. I wondered what was going on in his head. He had this weird smile, he was looking; not too dull and not so bright.

My mother was looking extremely beautiful and my Dad wasn't here yet. He had to walk my sister in. My sister was doing this for the company's sake, it made my blood boil. That guy seated in front didn't deserve her.

Lost in my thoughts, Gwendoline walked down the aisle, with Dad's hand wrapped around hers, as they walked together hand in hand. It was a beautiful moment, Gwendoline was looking as gorgeous as always, she was extremely beautiful!. One would think she was happy getting married, which made me smile.

I had to attend the wedding and resume back to school, i had stayed away from school for about 3 days, even though i had received permission.

Gwendolyn Stone

"You look gorgeous Gwen" Lily said as she completed my make up, she was my best friend, she knew everything i was going through, she couldn't do anything about it too. It was a family issue.

"Thanks Lydia" I said and she smiled brightly, i was the only one allowed to call her Lydia, it was her real name, but people called her Lily, since she insisted on that.

My wedding gown was designed by one of the best stylist, it was like a real wedding, oh!, It was a real wedding but it wasn't something i wanted for myself.

I faked a smile as my Dad and I held each other hand in hand as we walked down the aisle, i saw my sis, i smiled at her and she did the same, My Mum was lavishly dressed, i didn't know when she planned her dress, i was too busy sulking, Gerald's family were looking extremely good. They all had a great taste when it came to dressing.

I walked up to were the priest was, my father left my hand and went to seat. I was facing the devil himself, he was looking good as usual, he was dressed in a tuxedo suit, it was expensive!, i wondered how much everything he wore costs. It must have costed a fortune.

The event of last night flashed true my memory, it was a wicked thing to do, but i couldn't help it.

How dare him call me to a place were he was flirting and getting laid with women like himself.

I didn't think i over did anything, he asked for it, and i gave it to him. He glared at me like he was going to strangle me, I acted indifferent.

"Gerald Smith, do you accept Gwendolyn Stone to be your lawfully wedded wife, in sickness and in health, till death do you part?" The priest's voice disrupted my thoughts, he was talking to Gerald, who hesitated a bit before he replied, "Yes, I do"

"Gwendolyn Stone, do you accept Gerald Smith to be your lawfully wedded husband, in sickness and in health, till death do you part?" The priest turned to me as he asked that question which made my heart skip a bit, I was going to make a decision that would turn my life around, I mean it would make me miserable.

I stared at Gerald and whispered in his ears, "I hate you", he whispered the same thing right back at me, the church began to murmur, but i had to just make the wedding a success.

"Yes, i do" I said and faced the priest who turned to the church and asked.

"Is there anyone here who do not approve of this marraige?, Let him rise now or forever hold his peace" I looked around and saw Alice, if i hadn't talked to her yesterday, she may have stood up, she didn't want this marriage, but i saw her bow her head down and the Priest continued.

"You are now pronounced as husband and wife", he said and the congregation clapped.

"You may kiss the bride"

Huh! He moved closer to me as though he wanted to kiss me.

"Don't you dare!, just know I hate you with everything i have" I whispered to him but he said nothing.

Moving closer to me, he tried to kiss me but i turned my face, making his lips land on my cheeks, everyone was clapping and screaming, but we didn't do a thing.

I knew he was a pervert and would want to misuse this opportunity. I had to withdraw immediately.

The wedding came to an end, and everyone headed for the hall where the party was going to be held. We were made to take lots of pictures, before we finally headed for the party.

Gerald Smith

I was greatly embarrassed at the party the previous night, as i went home in anger.

And here she was looking gorgeous than usual, whispering in my ears about her hating me and all, it was vice versa.

The whole party ended and the guests were starting to leave, we got a whole lot of gift from friends and families, and those from our company.

"You should try and be good to her" My Dad said as i got in the car with Gwen.

I wasn't going to be good to her, she hasn't been good to me either, i said to myself and faced Gwen who was focused on her phone during the ride.

"Hey, the...."

"Don't say a word!, I don't want to hear you talk" She said before i finished my words.

What had gotten into her?, She wasn't as bad as this before.

We headed towards my personal mansion, and i saw her eyes open wide as soon as we got in. It was more like paradise, i couldn't blame her, she was surprised, but she didn't say a word. Instead she packed her bags and headed in as the maids rushed out to help her to her room, we were definitely not sleeping in the same room.
