Royce and Mary Rose's Wedding

I sighed nervously,standing in front door of the chapel which was decorated with flowers and candles all over and people were still going inside.Weddings. They always made me cry. I thought of Royce. Today I would marry him.I smiled thinking of all the happiness he had brought me.After my sisters death he had been by my side continuously, supporting and helping me through grief.It had been an incredible year, and now I was standing in my wedding gown, only minutes away from the beginning of ceremony.I took deep breath and smoothed my white wedding dress covered in lace as I stood there a little more.

As I watch Mary before she enters the chapel I kiss her on both cheeks and smile before taking my place inside wishing I could be with Lancelot instead of being here watching the man I thought I love marry my aunt, trying not to think off the pass but the furture

Mary have tears in her eyes when she saw her Aunt.
She wish her all best and give her kiss on both cheeks.
Mary look around the chapel.
Than she wisperd to her sister Cordelia:" Where is our father?"

"Charles reached the Chapel to attend to Mary's wedding. Once he arrived, he saw her standing out of Chapel's entrance, wearing her wedding dress. He smiled and came closer"

Mary...I hoped to meet you before the ceremony begins. You're beautiful. I wish you to be very happy with your husband. I don't know him very well but...he looks a trustful man. Oh! Before I forget...I have a gift for you...

"He asked to his servant to show her a box. He opened it and gave it to Mary's lady in waiting"

" I hope he comes.Who will bring Mary to the altar?"

Mary is very nervous.Looks around the chapel.And saw that it comes more and more poeple
in the Chapel.
She can not see the King or her Mother.
Mary look back to her sister and her Aunt and saw that Lord Suffolk give Mary a present.
She make a bow " Lord Suffolk what a nice present."
Than she wispered:
" Have you see my Father and my Mother? They want come to the wedding or?"

Mary will be more nervous.

I smiled to Mary and Cordelia, as my heart was beating faster with both nerves and excitement.I took a deep breath to try to calm myself,closing my eyes just for a moment.Once when I opened my eyes again I saw Charles and smiled to him.

''Charles...Thank you for your wonderful wishes and thank you for being here.''

I said with sincere smile.Then I looked at the gift when the servant open it,completely speechless.

''Oh,Charles! I don't know what to say....The gift is very beautiful,thank you.''

"Charles kissed Mary's hand with a sincere smile"

Well...it seems you're not my sister in law anymore. But in my heart you still are, Mary...

"He turned towards Princess Mary and bowed"

Your Highness...your father is coming. He will lead your aunt until the altar...

"Once he finished his sentence, he saw Emilie approaching them. He smiled friendly"

Emilie...how nice to see you here. Hope you're alright...

I smiled to Charles friendly.He was my childhood friend and I really missed him.

''And in my heart you will always be my brother in law,always.''

I said softly,looking at him.As Emilie and Olympe came closer to us my smile get wider.

''Oh no,you are not late! Thank you so much,Emilie.''

Fisher was in the little chamber next to the chapel, dressed in an extravagant priestly robe instead of his usual simple one. An altar boy hung him a golden cross around his neck and he nodded, it was time to enter the chapel and start the ceremony.
He stood in the doorway and watched the crowd, many people attended and the chapel was filled to the brim. He saw a nervously looking Royce standing before the altar and as he looked to the main entry, he noticed Mary Rose was waiting to enter, her brother the king next to her to give her away.

He nodded at one of the altar boys and he hit a huge bell while Fisher approached the altar. People rose and became silent as he and his two altar boys bowed deeply before the altar, their hands folded. He greeted Royce with a smile and he put a comforting hand on his arm.
Everything will be fine, relax and enjoy. he said warmly, then he turned to the crowd and made the sign of the cross, people followed his lead and he gestured the choir to sing the opening wedding hymne while he waited with Royce for the bride to make her stunning entrance.

Mary Saw that her Father is coming in the Church but she missed her mother.
She make a bow.

" Your Majesty" .

She will not disturb the wedding of her Aunt and ask not where is her mother.
She went through the chapel and saw that Royce wait of his Bride.
Mary nap at him.
Than she take her place of the other guest in the first row.

As I see my father coming I curtsy majesty, kiss my aunt and hug her whispering congratulations before going into the chapel seeing Royce I go towards him and smile good luck enforce taking my seat

I smiled softly to Olympe when she handed me a bouquet and gently kissed her cheek.

''Thank you so much dearest Olympe! The bouquet is very beautiful.''

Then I smiled to my brother when he came and hugged him.

''Thank you,brother....Yes I am little nervous.''

Taking the deep breath I took his hand.The organ began to play the familiar sound, and I started to walk down the aisle, accompanied by my brother. In front of us, two children, the ring bearers, were walking slowly, both reflecting the solemnity of the moment.Now I was able to see Royce who was now standing by the altar rail and that brought brightly smile on my face,and when his eyes meet mine they immediately bring the joy in me and the nervous faded away .I looked affectionately at my soon-to-be husband and smiled lovingly as I continue to walk towards him.

"Charles bowed as the King approached them and turned towards Emilie"

I'm very well. I'm engaged, now...But I'll tell you details later, if you want...

"He winked at her and offered her his arm. Then he entered in the chapel with Emilie at his side and took his place. He crossed, looking at the altar. Once the bride entered with the King, everyone looked at them with admired eyes"

Mary saw that the King and Mary come down the aisle to the altar,there where Royce stand and wait.

She can not concentred of the wedding she must know why her Mother not come to the Wedding.
Marry sit beside Cordelia she wisperd to her: " Do you know where is the Queen? Why she is not here?"

Me and my brother finally reached the altar and I looked into Royce's eyes lovingly.I smiled to my brother as let go of my hand and gave it to Royce,and I found my heart beating faster.

''Thank you...and you are looking absolutely charming.''

I whispered back at him,with brightly smile.I could do nothing but smile.Smile a smile that had originated in my heart.
