Tell Me A Lie In A Beautiful Way (Avenged Sevenfold)

Chapter 34

Matt's POV

I wanted to kill Dani, saying that, she kind of ruined my surprise. Kat found it so hilarious that Dani mentioned getting married and here I was organising that exact same thing. Dani had to ruin the moment.

I of course had to tell Kat my plans, and now we were laying here, her sobbing on my chest.

"Are you okay?" I asked her softly. I mean fuck, what if she didn't want to marry me? I mean I had been a huge asshole.

"Just shocked." She sniffled, looking at me and wiping her face.

"Shocked?" I asked her. "In a good way?" I kind of feared the answer.

"Shocked because I never expected it." She said softly, laying her head back on my chest. "I mean I didn't expect marriage from you."

I looked at the ceiling. That comment kind of hurt a little. I thought I'd made it perfectly clear how I felt about her. I loved her, with everything I had and I thought she knew that.

"Why didn't you expect it from me?" I asked her, really wanting to know the answer.

She propped her head up with her hands on my chest and looked at me. "I don't know Matt." She whispered. "You just don't seem the marrying type."

I frowned. "What the fuck is that supposed to mean Kat?"

"I don't know." She said again. "I just never imagined you getting married."

"So what." I asked her. "What did you see for our future?" I saw marriage and children, what the hell had Kat seen?

She sighed. "I never really thought about it." She whispered.

"Well I had." I mumbled. "And I saw my future with you Kat and only you."

She buried her head in my chest again and went back to crying. I wrapped my arm's around her and held her. I know I didn't show her a whole lot of emotion but I loved her, I told her I loved her and I meant it when I said it.

"So." I whispered, stroking her hair. "What about it? Are you going to marry me today?"

"Yes." She mumbled into my chest.

"I beg your pardon?" I murmured, wanting her to look at me and say it.

She looked up, wiping her face again. "Yes." She whispered. "I will marry you today."

"Thank god." I groaned, holding her tightly. "Fuck." It was a huge relief, a weight of my chest.

"When?" She asked. "When is it?"

"One o'clock." I murmured. "Some chapel that I found on the internet. The rings are in a safe downstairs and your dress is being delivered around ten this morning."

"You picked a dress for me?" She asked, wiggling around, wrapping herself around me. "And the ring?"

"Rings." I said rearranging my arms so I was still holding her. "There's an engagement ring as well and I hope you like the dress."

"I will." She whispered closing her eye's as I kissed her.

We got up and went out for breakfast. I wanted to go out, I mean it was our wedding day after all so I wanted it to be a good day, a nice day and one we wouldn't forget.

At around ten the dress arrived in the room and I stood there, chewing my lip, watching Kat cry. I felt like crying myself to be honest, just seeing her happy touched me, it made my chest ache a little.

"It's perfect Matt." She whispered, standing there looking at it.

It wasn't a traditional wedding dress, but it was a white cocktail dress and it was perfect for Kat. I couldn't wait to see her in it, I knew she'd look perfect.

While she was still fawning over the dress I went downstairs and picked up the rings out of the safe, making my back up to our room.

"Here." I said as I walked in, pulling the engagement ring out.

Kat looked at it and started crying again. "It's so beautiful."

"So you like it?" I asked her softly and she nodded, wiping her face. "Well Kat." I murmured. "Will you marry me?"

"Yes." She cried and I slipped the ring on her finger.

It was the shortest engagement ever and it wasn't long until we started getting ready for our wedding.

Kat went in and showered and while she was doing her hair and make up, I put on my suit and smiled. I scrubbed up pretty well and I had to admit, I looked pretty damn handsome.

I sat down and waited for Kat to appear. I wanted to go in and hurry her up, but I wanted to give her time to get ready.

"Matt." Kat said quietly, stepping out of the room. "Do I look okay?"

I looked at her and I couldn't speak. She looked beautiful. Was I being selfish, marrying her, yeah I was, but I didn't want to lose her, I needed her in my life.

"You look perfect." I murmured, pulling her into my arm's and kissing her softly.

"Let's get married." She whispered against my lips and I nodded.

Fuck yes. I wanted to marry her right now.

I'd organised a car and it drove us to the little chapel. It was a little tacky, but they'd done a pretty good job at making it look nice.

"Matthew and Katelyn." The minister guy said as we walked in.

I nodded. "That's us."

"Excellent." He said and then he went onto explain what would happen and introduced us to the two other's that would be our witnesses.

We got in position and the ceremony started. It was short and to the point and admittedly, it wasn't the best wedding ceremony, it was pretty basic. The usual do you take this man and blah blah blah but I didn't care, I just wanted him to get to the end part.

"I now pronounce you husband and wife."

And there it was. The sentence I'd been waiting for. God, it sounded so perfect. Husband and Wife.

"Well you know." He said. "You can kiss her now."

I glanced at the other's in the room, I mean they were stranger's, but fuck it, it wasn't like I'd ever see them again, so I reached out and pulled Kat into my arm's, kissing her softly, but kissing her passionately.

We had a few things to sign and then that was it, it was over and we were actually married.

"Well." Kat said as we walked back out to the car. "We did it."

I smiled, opening the door for her. "Yes we did."

"What now?" She asked as the car pulled out into traffic.

"Now I'm taking you for lunch somewhere nice." I murmured. "And then we can do what ever you want."

She smiled at me. "I mean." She murmured, leaning over closer. "We have to consummate the marriage."

"Of course." I said smirking out the window. "We really do."

"The sooner the better." She whispered.

Fuck yes. She was a keeper and god, now she was my wife.
