23. Babymoon
Erin POV
Slowly I walk around the house hoping that moving around would relieve some of the pain in my lower back. As I walk I run my hands over my growing bump and feel our little rainbow move around.
"I don't care how much pain you cause me, you are worth all of it" I say softly "I can't wait to meet you little lady"
"Neither can papi" a voice says as strong arms wrap around me and large hands rest on top of mine "how's your back" he asks kissing my cheek
"Sore" I sigh "bit it's worth it, I would walk over hot coals if it meant we got a healthy baby"
"She's perfectly healthy you heard the doc" he says "not long now and she will be here so........" He says turning me around abd bringing the packed bags by the door into my view
"Where are you going?" I ask
"We are going to have a few days at a forest retreat and spa" he says softly "you deserve some pampering and we get to have some quality time before little lady arrives. Call it our babymoon"
"Oh D" I say taking his face in my hands "you are too perfect" I smile before pecking his lips
"Only for you mi amor" he smiles "come on let's get going"
The ride there was relatively quiet as Damian focused on the road while I watched the scenery changing the closer we got the the place.
He hadn't been kidding when he said forest retreat, this place was right in the middle of one away from everything and it was beautiful.
"D this place is so.......it's almost magical" I gasp as we get out of the car.
"I'm glad you like it" he says "I'm going to check you in and these two lovely ladies here are going to take you to be pampered and get you ready to join me for dinner under the stars" he says pressing a loving kiss to my lips.
I follow the two women as he heads inside. I quickly find out that Damian had paid for me to have the works, a lower back massage, manicure, facial, pedicure and foot massage everything I sorely needed.
Once they are done one of them leaves the room only to come back with a full length, backless, pastel purple satin gown for me to wear.
"He really went all out huh?" I chuckle as they help me get into the gown.
"He said only the best for his love" one of the girls smiles
"He wanted you to feel like a queen for the day" the other says "OK if follow us we will take you to where you are having dinner.
I follow the two women out of the spa and into the forest area. As we get deeper in to it I notice that some of the trees are highlighted with fairy lights and flowers the same colour as my dress.
As I begin to wonder why he has gone to so much trouble I'm stopped in my tracks by a familiar face. Rhea is stood by an opening in the trees beaming at me.
"You look beautiful Erin" she smiles and the I notice she is also I a gown
"How are you.......what's going on?" I ask confused
"Follow me" she smiles "you are about to find out just how much he loves you" she smiles
She guides me to the opening and all I can do is gasp as I look wide eyed at all our friends and family seated in rows either side of an aisle and there at the end all dressed up in a suit and a beautiful smile is Damian.
"So......what do you reckon? Think you'll need this?" Rhea asks handing me a bouquet of flowers
"Yes......yes I think I will" I smile as tears run down my cheeks "he really did all this?"
"Well he had a little help but yes" she smiles "he did this all for you"
Rhea guides me to the top of the aisle where my dad is waiting. I link my arm through his and take a steadying breath.
"Something tells me I don't need to ask if want a get out option" my dad chuckles
"Never" I smile "let's go make that man my husband"
I walk down the aisle with my dad as soft music plays. Damian beams at me the whole time never taking his eyes of me for a second. His brother stand beside him and pats him on the shoulder and even though he responds his eyes stay on me.
When we reach him my dad takes my hand and places it in Damian's.
"Take care of my little girl" he says with a smile "she's given you her heart and I'm trusting you not to break it"
"You have my word sir" Damian says
My dad takes his seat and Damian and I gaze at each other. I'm still in awe of what he has manged to put together and without me even noticing.
"You look like an angel" he says
"And you look like a dream" I smile back
"Are we ready?" The officiant asks and we both nod "Alright we are gathered here today to join this man and this woman in marriage, Damian would you like to begin with you vows"
"Erin, from the first moment I saw you I knew you were the one for me. I didn't fall in love with you I walked into love with you, with my eyes open choosing to take every step along the way. I do believe in fate and destiny and I believe we are only fated to do the things we choose. And I would choose you in a hundred lifetimes, in a hundred worlds, in any version of reality. I'd find you and I'd choose you. I vow to fiercely love you in all your forms, now and forever and promise to never forget this is a once in lifetime love. As your husband I am yours now and I give you my heart today and forever"
As I wipe tears from my eyes the officiant turns to me and suddenly realise I'm going to have to come with something off the top of my head and make it good.
"Damian, I love you not only for what you are but for what I am when I am with you. I love you not only for what you have made of yourself but for what you are making of me. I take you to be my beat friend, my partner in life and my one true love. I swear I could not love you more than I do now yet I know I will tomorrow. You are my vow and I will keep it by continuing to love you every moment of every day"
Alex leans over and places the rings on the book the officiant is holding. With everyone one watching on we each repeat what he says before exchanging rings. As I slide the ring on to Damian's finger I can hardly believe we have actually done this.
"Damian do you take Erin to be your wife?" He asks
"I do" Damian smiles his own face stained with tears
"Erin do you take Damian to be your husband" he asks
"I absolutely do" I smile
"Then it gives me great pleasure to pronounce you man wife" he smiles "Damian you may kiss your bride"
As all around us clap and cheer Damian takes my face in his hands and presses his lips to mine in a deep loving kiss. Carefully he wraps his arms around me pulling me closer to him before finally parting his lips from mine
"I love you" he whispers his head resting against mine "I can't believe I can finally call you Mrs Priest"
"I love you" I smile "I can't believe you did all this, it was such a beautiful suprise and I couldn't be happier to have you as my husband"
"We just need little miss to join us and then everything will be perfect" he smiles kissing the tip of my nose
"I think you mean everything will be even more prefect" I smile "because this right here right now........is completely perfect"
