“Hi.” I smile bashfully, the way he looks at me is so intense, there’s no mistaking his love for me, my eyes flick to the priest and he smiles at the two us. “Estamos reunidos para celebrar la unión de dos almas” The priest says.
“We are gathered here to celebrate the union of two souls.” Sebastian says as his eyes hold mine.
Oh dear god…..we’re getting married in Spanish, Sebastian is translating.
Emotional overload.
My eyes fill with tears and I blink so that I can see him.
“El amor es precioso, el amor es bondadoso.” The priest says.
“Love is precious, love is kind.” Seb smiles softly.
“El amor es un lenguaje que no se puede aprender. Es intrínseco, vive dentro de nuestro ser.”
“Love is a language that cannot be learned. It is intrinsic, it lives inside of us.”
I smile softly over at my beautiful man.
“¿Qué es lo que buscas, hijo mío?” The priest asks.
“What is it you’re seeking my child?” Sebastian’s eyes hold mine. “Amor eterno. Eternal love.”
Gah….
This is too much, I wipe a tear as it rolls down my cheek.
“¿Sebastián García, quieres a April Bennet, para tener y sostener a partir de este día?
“Do you Sebastian Garcia, take April Bennet, to have and to hold from this day forward?”
“Si, quiero. I do.”
“¿Y tú, April Bennet, quieres a Sebastián García para tener y sostener a partir de este dia?
“And do you April Bennet, take Sebastian Garcia to have and to hold from this day forward?”
“I do.”
Sebastian smiles and rocks up onto his toes, as if proud.
Que el Señor los una por la eternidad.” The priest says.
“Let the lord join you for eternity.”
“Repite despues de mi, con este anillo me caso contigo. En la enfermedad y en la salud, en la riqueza y en la pobreza, por el resto de nuestra vidas.”
“Repeat after me, with this ring, I the wed. In sickness and in health, for richer, for poorer, for as long as we both shall live.”
The priest passes us the two gold rings and Sebastian slides the thick gold band onto my finger. “Te amaré hasta el final. Esta es mi promesa.” He whispers in his husky voice. “I will love you until the day I die, April. This is my promise to you.”
Oh…..
I take the ring and slide it onto Sebastian’s finger.
“Ahora los declaro marido y mujer, puedes besar a tu novia.”
“I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss your bride.” Sebastian repeats.
We smile softly at each other, he takes my face in his two hands and we kiss through overwhelming emotion.
We’ve come so far, it feels like a lifetime ago that we met in that club.
So much to get to where we stand tonight.
I love him so much.
We made it….
Mr and Mrs Garcia.
We walk up the boardwalk, and my eyes widen, "This is where we are staying?” I gasp.
Sebastian lifts my hand to his lips, “Well, not right here, but this is how we get there. Yes.”
My mouth falls open. A small landing leads to the largest yacht I've ever seen.
Four men stand in line as they wait to greet us, the one in a white suit and fancy-looking hat dips his head, he looks important, he must be the captain of the ship…yacht, whatever the hell this thing is. "Good evening, Mr and Mrs Garcia."
Mrs Garcia…. what the hell? I let out an unexpected giggle, “You’re the first person to ever call me that.”
Sebastian smiles warmly and winks at the captain before shaking his hand. “Thank you.”
He takes my hand and leads me across the boardwalk and onto the yacht, a man holds out a silver tray with two glasses of champagne, and we each take one. The glasses are crystal and heavy, "Thank you." The waiter gives me a kind smile, "Canapes and cocktails are to be served in fifteen minutes on the deck, Mrs Garcia.
Excitement shoots through me, Mrs Garcia. I’ll never tire of hearing that.
"Okay, thanks." I don't know where to look first. This is over the top opulence. My eyes meet his, "Sebastian." I whisper, "Are you kidding me?"
He smiles proudly as he looks around. "Only the best for my girl." He leans in and kisses me tenderly, and I melt against him. How did I get so lucky?
I pull out of his arms to look around the ground floor. A huge luxurious living area with dark timber floors and exotic-looking custom rugs, a twenty-seater dark wood dining table, a black mini grand piano sits in the corner.
Piano…. On a boat…. what the hell?
The furnishings are the very best money can buy, all in different shades of cream with scatterings of emerald green and navy blue.
Where do you even buy furniture like this?
Crystal lampshades are strategically placed, and chandeliers hang from the ceilings.
Frigging hell…. this is next level.
I glance out onto the deck and see huge outdoor couches, deckchairs and an oversized hot tub. And we’re having cocktails there in fifteen minutes.
