"How dare you lay your hands on my child?"
"Your child?" Queen scoffs, laughing oddly. "And how dare you come into my wedding venue and claim to be in laws with me when neither of the couple is your child?"
"What?" Larry steps forward. "Whatever happens within our family stays inside our family. And as my daughter said, she had been drunk that night."
"Mr. Campbell, you are a businessman so I thought you would know when an issue is out of your hands, but clearly, you are just as dumb as the rest of your family." Queen turns to face her butler, "Get this filthy family out of here."
"Yes madam. Security. Get them out of here."
Five hefty men walk inside and grabs hold of them by each their shoulders. "This way."
"I refuse to leave my daughter's wedding. She is getting married to Eric Walters. Mina! Remove that dress and give it to Susan immediately." Greta orders while Queen scoffs.
Susan nods and stand right in front of Maina. "Take it off and give it to me now."
"Throw them out."
Without any other words, one of the security men pick Greta up and another picks Susan and slings her over his shoulder. Larry chooses to walk, gritting his teeth at the embarrassment.
Mina watches, torn between joy and surprise at the show that's going on.
"Oh, wait." Queen calls out and the men turn around.
Queen locks eyes with Susan, Larry and lastly, Greta before speaking, "Don't you think it is only right that a woman marries the man who took her virginity? I love their story already." With a final wave of her hand, the trio are unceremoniously led put of the large chapel and dumped outside on their asses.
The audience gasps at the revelation.
"They slept together?"
"She is so lucky."
"Oh my goodness. Queen has got her back."
"Come on darling, meet your groom at the end of the aisle." Queen yells as the organ begins to play.
The mood is serene and beautiful, there are no fake smiles in sight as Mina walks slowly down the aisle, walking between the pews and the scattered flowers on her path.
Who would have thought that she will not get embarrassed as hearing her body's status yelled out like that as long as it put the Campbells in their place?
She glances at Queen who is clapping gaily and smiling at the beautiful bride.
The older woman throws her an encouraging smile and Mina raises her head.
And there at the end if the aisle, is Eric Walters.
He had been the one that night.
She has a ton of questions now but she would have to swallow them.'
She comes to a stop at the front of the altar where a priest is waiting for them.
"Please share your vows. Miss Mina first."
Her head goes blank. "Uhm… Uhm…"
"The bride is shy." Someone loudly comments and everyone bursts into laughter.
She chuckles nervously too. "I'll be a good wife."
That's all she is able to muster.
Eric clears his throat, a smirk tugging at the edges of his lips. "I can't wait to have fun with you forever."
The crowd oohs and aahs but to Mina, his almost creepy smile means otherwise.
Play with her? That's what he had done on that night, played with her.
And now it'll be forever.
"Before the ring exchange, is there anyone who objects… Oh, that part should be left out."
Outside the closed doors, Susan stamps her feet in frustration. She had been prepared to yell a very loud no that will shake the roots of the earth.
The ring bearers comes forward.
Mina goes first, putting the silver ring into his warm fingers, the fingers that had toyed with her that day.
Without warning, Eric's hand grabs hers and he pts the ring in, softly and gently, and it's her perfect size.
"You may now kiss the bride."
Mina positively freezes with her hand in the air.
With a fluid motion, Eric pulls her into himself and grabs her by the waist, turning her back to the floor and his face right above hers.
Mina turns red.
Those lips had tortured her before, everything about the man seems to turn her brain into mashed potatoes.
"Don't think too much, you are my wife now. I have permission to kiss you." Eric whispers breathily to her and almost as if the world is on pause, the whole chapel is quiet.
Eric leans down and kisses her, pulling her lower lips into his mouth in the soft but breathtaking kiss.
Mina Walters becomes a married woman.
Eric whisks her around and carries her in his arms, bridal style as the whole chapel clasps in excitement, including Queen.
Eric looks at er, his eyes glinting. "I made plans for the night. I promise you will love it."
Mina is not so sure about that, but her head and her lower body are in two opposite directions.
