Don't trip, don't trip
I walked one foot in front of the other trying to not trip over my heels. A tear fell from my eye and I wiped it away quickly trying to not ruin my make up.
My family sat on one side of me and his on the other.
I tried to stay in time with the music but finally reached the end.
I turned to my father as he sniffled.
Ldad: I love you
Liza: I love you too dad
He kissed my forehead the walked over to the side.
This is it, I felt his hand clasp mine and we took a few steps forward and faced eachother. He told me not to be nervous but he was too I could feel his heart racing.
Priest: we are gathered here today...
I thought I would become bored as the priest said his long speeches but I didn't I was to nervous but too excited.
Priest: you may now kiss the bride
He closed the gap between us and let our lips meet. We pulled back and couldn't stop looking at the eyes I fell in love with at 17 years old.
David: we did it baby
All I could do was smile in reply.
He lifted me up into a bridal carry making me giggle and scream.

Ding ding ding my fork hit against my champagne glass waiting for silence.
Liza: I wanted to make a speech.. I just wanted to thank my parents, 8 years ago they ended our family feud letting me and David be in love the way we wished we always could. We hid our relationship for many months and i remember being so glad it was over. And now we're stood her toady with both family's by our sides and we're now joined as one
The hall erupted into cheers
Liza: now may we raise our glasses to the end of the great feud
The hall then echoed with the clinks of glasses all around the room.
David rose from his chair beside me and gave me a smile. He took my hand and pulled me up with him.
David: we have something else to add, Liza is the light of my life and of many others too
Liza: we have something to announce
David: she's pregnant!
Once more the hall erupted into cheers and my sister stood up beside me.
Rachel: really?! You should've told me earlier
Liza: David wanted to keep it a secret until today
Rachel: I'm so happy for you!
They engulfed eachother into a hug both with grins on their faces
Gabbie: I already knew
I just rolled my eyes at her.
Todd: so where's the honey moon?
He was sat beside mason on Scott.
David: no where far
As David can't leave the country we chose a one night spot for our honey moon.
The car wheels crushed against some familiar gravel. It's been 4 years since we've come to this spot well together David's come here a few ones when we've argued. We take eachothers hands and lean across the railing to the city below.
David: it feels like we haven't been here in forever
His hands slither around my hips.
Liza: well I don't know about you but it's been four years for me
David: you know I mean together
Liza: well there is one place neither of us have been to in 8 years
David: where's that?
I press our lips together and pull him to the car.
Liza: I'll drive
I drive for a few minutes as David stares at our surroundings trying to guess where we're going.
David: I know where we are!
I giggle and park the car.
Liza: come on then
I remember the blanket in the boot and grab it to take with us.
We both slip our shoes off and let our feet sink into the sand.
David: I've missed this place
Liza: we should've gotten married here
David: but then everyone would know it exists
Liza: all ok friends already know
David: remember when we had that party here
Liza: that was so much fun
David: until... Carly and Zane
Liza: oh I nearly forgot Gabbie was distraught that night
David: she got over like we all said she would
Liza: and look at them now
David: ours baby is gonna be sooo much cuter than theirs
Liza: yeah, but don't tell them that
He chuckles and we lay down onto the blanket
Liza: do you remember mason and Rachel's big break up
David: it seemed like such a big deal
Liza: they ignored eachother for months
David: and now they're best friends
Liza: I remember when she came home to me crying and then you climbed through my window
I let out a giggle and so did he
David: I had no  idea what to do, I just left and called mason
Liza: we've been through so much but we stuck through it all
David: that's because we love eachother
Liza: this is all so cringe
David: what? It's nostalgic
I nuzzle myself into his chest.
Liza: we're married
David: no shit
Liza: I just can't believe we're married, I'm mrs dobrik, sorry dobrikova I'm a mrs... now I feel old
David: you're 25 and shut up it's dobrik
Liza: yeh yeh
I look up at him to see him staring up into the night sky. I feel his hand against my back and my stomach and I smile to myself. This is what we fought for. I'm so glad I didn't give up on him.
