There was no word Ace could think of to describe the vision that was Veronica Rosalia Delgado.

The air felt knocked out of his lungs at the sight of her in the pink toned silk dress. It flowed endlessly around her legs, it was backless with a loose bow decorating the bottom of her spine. Her hair was crimped and curled, lips stained a dusty rose shade, eyes full of glimmer and spark.

Rendered speechless, he made sure her and her family were seated comfortably before returning to his groomsmen duties.

They still had a solid amount of time before the bride walked down the isle and Ace used every bit of it to stare at the love of his life smiling brightly.

He was at the back of the chapel, searching for one missing white tie all of the groomsmen were supposed to wear during the ceremony when a particular charm bracelet caught up in his vision.

"Your mom found the tie for Kaiko, Isla is set to walk in ten minutes so you might wanna make the grand return and all." Her grin was too consuming.

"Ronnie," he breathed, completely and utterly fazed by the sight of her. He hadn't gotten a chance to speak to her alone.

"Yeah, Ronnie." She mimicked him adorably and Ace couldn't help but skim the length of her backbone with the tips of his fingers.

She shuddered deliciously. "Stop," it was a half hearted request. "I hate goosebumps." Veronica pointed out.

"I don't think you realize how speechless you've left me." He confessed, not knowing which compliment to attack her with first.

"In a good way?" She coyly asked, ignoring the fact that they needed to be back in their places five minutes ago.

"In a phenomenal way."

The sound of the bridal suite door opening was what tore attention away from his angel. He couldn't survive the wrath of his mother and sister if he interfered with scheduling.

"We were just leaving!" He announced before Isla's best friend and maid of honor could even get a chance of speaking.

They walked hand in hand down the aisle and Ace wanted to treasure this moment forever even though he knew for a fact it wouldn't be the last time.

He helped Veronica settle in her seat next to her parents and kissed the crown of her head before returning to his place as a groomsman.

Let the wedding begin.
