Chapter 169 - Her Forever Love
Chapter 169 - Her Forever Love
*A few months later*
"Ah, April you look stunning," Aarna announced as she entered the bedroom. She had arrived in the room to see April wearing a long white lace wedding gown, the gown was adorned with pearls and had a long train down the back, and it hugged April's curves.
April kept her makeup minimal with just her signature winged eyeliner and a red lip. April wore her long wavy black hair half up and half down, pinned with more pearls. She wanted to look like herself, she didn't want a huge day or lots of fuss with makeup and hairstylists.
She wanted her special day to be surrounded by only those who meant the world to her.
Today was April's and Dean's wedding day. After April had given birth to two very healthy babies, Dean had immediately organised everything.
Now her two little bumps were almost three months old and April had fully recovered from their birth, Dean had decided to move forward with their wedding day. He was very keen to have them all as a complete family unit.
April had had a short pregnancy of only thirty five weeks and the little bumps came five weeks early.
April had been calm throughout as Dean was flapping around not sure of what to do with himself, he was in full panic mode. When April looked back on those hospital moments now, she could only giggle at his reaction.
April had a baby boy which they named Jace and a little girl which they had named Sarah.
Grandpa Davis was delighted with having two healthy grandchildren to spend time with. Though he dotted more Sarah than he did Jace.
April had to hold Dean back when it came to him being extravagant on their wedding day.
She laughed at his ideas, he was renting the museum and she changed it to an at home wedding in the Davis Manor.
He was importing exotic flowers from another country to build a flower arch when she stopped him, the Davis gardens already had beautiful flowers so she saw no need for more.
The only argument they had was over her dress.
Both Dean and Michael had talked her into getting a bespoke handmade designer dress. Luckily Marie jumped at the chance to make her the dress. As a designer, she gave it to April as a wedding gift.
Now as she looked down at her gorgeous dress in the mirror she was glad that she had listened to them. It matched her style and body shape perfectly.
Marie had spent so much time and effort designing and making her dress after April had only given her a basic idea of what she liked.
"Ah, Aarna you're here!" April beamed and turned to bear hug Aarna. She had been staring at herself in the mirror lost in thought. She couldn't believe that this was her life, she was so overjoyed it was nearly unbelievable for her to comprehend.
The two best friends embraced, both exceptionally happy for one another.
Aarna had had a healthy baby boy who was five months old now, she had had her baby just two months before April had given birth to the twins. Aarna and Zane had named the chunky little boy Leo.
"Your mother would be so proud of you."
The two best friends turned to see Marie Wisdom her mother's friend come through the bedroom door.
She had arrived not too long after the incident at the shopping mall and had decided to stay. She gave April the support and care that she needed like a mother would and April was more than happy to have her staying with them.
The house next door was ready to move into now, but April had felt more at home with the twins living with family around them, so they hadn't moved into it yet. The plan was for them to move in as a honeymoon gift from Grandpa Joseph.
"Thank you, Marie. I love the dress, thank you for making it for me." April thanked her from the bottom of her heart.
"Don't thank me, I am just happy to be here today." Marie smiled at April, she was proud of the woman she had become.
"Dear Lord, April you look just like your mother."
The three women turned to hear Martins voice. Martin arrived to see his daughter and walk her down the aisle. He was lost for words seeing her in her wedding dress, she resembled her mother so much that he had tears in his eyes.
"Dad don't cry." April walked towards her father and held his hands.
"I will leave you both to it," Marie announced as she left the room.
"I will go down and check on the babies," Aarna said as she also left the room.
Martin held his daughter's hands and smiled, their relationship had blossomed in the past year.
"Shall we go down? I have just left Dean he is very anxious to see you. Or do you want to make him wait some more?" Martin joked.
April giggled as she could imagine Dean pacing, "No let's go, I am just as anxious to see him."
Dean and April had spent their first night apart since they had got together, following the tradition of not seeing the bride the morning of the wedding day. Although they slept under the same roof, she had found it hard to sleep without his loving embrace.
They walked out of the bedroom and Martin took his daughter's arm as he helped her down the stairs and through the Davis manor towards the garden. He had a lump in his throat as he walked his little girl down the aisle.
April took a deep breath and whispered to her soul, "Thank you."
She was thankful for her forever love.
When Dean laid eyes on April walking down the aisle, he couldn't help but tear up. He recalled their not so distant past in both lives. The first time he saw her, the first time they made love, the first moment he realised that he was in love with her, meeting their twins, all of those moments leading till now filled him with joy.
She beamed at him as she approached the altar where Dean stood. He was wearing an all black three piece Armani suit, with Casey standing just at his right.
Michael was at the front of the altar because he was officiating their wedding. Michael and Casey both wore matching grey suits, just like they had at their own wedding.
Dean wiped away a tear just before it fell, he thanked God for giving him another chance to learn to love and be loved.
And at that moment he realized that until death do us part wasn't a promise, at least not for them.
