"But you said you don't want to eat chocolate-"
"No no I love chocolate let's go. Quickly" He pushed Marcus to the food tent in a hurry and I couldn't help but smile as I ran to catch up to them.
Few of Lucas's friends from school were already at the fountain eating chocolate dipped strawberries. They waved their hands at him and Lucas jogged towards them, giving them a fist bump.
After the twins were born Lucas became much more socialized and now already has few friends at school. But if he was given a choice he would still prefer animals over humans.
As Lucas went to his friends we sat on a table near the fountain. Dylan eyed Lucas for a while and whispered something to Hannah.
Hannah nodded and held her palm up for a count down "3, 2, 1"
"What are you doing-"
But ignoring me they started shouting.
"Mowgli! Mowgli! Mowgli!"
Lucas snapped his head and grit his teeth in anger. He mouthed shut up but the twins continued to shout. Lucas turned to his friends and said something to them before running back here.
He strode towards us and slammed his fist on the table.
"I can't believe this. Uhh that was so embarassing. How can I face them? And these two rotten carrots couldn't find a better time to call me by that name" Lucas groaned in frustration and the twins looked at him in bewilderment.
"We are not carrots and definitely not rotten!" The twins pouted and Lucas stared at them for a moment.
Then he bent his head back laughing at them. The twins looked at us but Marcus and I also couldn't do anything but laugh.
"Even mommy and daddy are laughing. So mean"
Before I could say anything Jake came running with a box in his hands. "Babies come over there" He pointed to a tree facing the lake. "I got a present for you"
The children got up and ran, Marcus and I following them behind in confusion. Jake kept the box down and waited for us.
"What's that?" Marcus asked.
"This is a gift"
"For what?"
"Well... you know there's three children in your family but only one dog. So-"
"Hold on!" I raised my voice, stopping Jake. "Please don't continue. I don't want to hear what you are gonna say next. Go away shoo shoo " I tried pushing Jake, knowing exactly what he was gonna say.
"You can't shoo me away sister" Jake gave a Cheshire grin and knelt down to the ground
He opened the box and the kids gasped in surprise.
"So.... Surprise! I thought of giving you two more puppies to complete the family"
Marcus's face split into a huge smile and he knelt down beside Jake. He gently took the white Labrador puppies to his arms.
"One is a girl and the other a boy"
As Jake said it Hannah and Dylan screamed, jumping up and down in excitement. Lucas came to Marcus and took one puppy to his arms.
"Daddy let's name them as Snow and Khaleesi" Hannah said and Marcus nodded in agreement.
"Great! Dean Schneider's other lions' names" I muttered and glared at Jake.
"Let's play"
The kids started playing with the puppies and I stood under the tree, arms crossed across my chest, staring at the night sky. It was already dark and the trees were lit with white lanterns hanging on their branches, making the garden reception look more spectacular at night rather than day.
Suddenly I was pulled out of my trance as I felt soft fingers stroking my cheeks. Marcus tucked a hair strand behind my ear and pecked my forehead. "So beautiful" He muttered, his eyes wandering around my face.
He kept staring at every feature on my face and I snapped my fingers before his eyes, pulling him to reality.
He blinked and shook his head. "Wow I suddenly forgot everything. Come" He dragged me over to the lake and pointed at the people gathered around the lake, holding lit lanterns waiting till it expand to fly it to the sky. "They are lighting flying lanterns. Let's light few up"
Marcus took two lanterns and gave one to me and the other to Lucas.
Marcus helped Lucas while I lit the candle with the twins. "Babies make a wish"
Hannah pursed her lips, thinking hard. "Mmm...ah" She suddenly snapped her fingers as an idea popped in her head.
"May the puppies have more puppies"
Marcus began laughing and I looked at them in horror. "No more animals. Let's not fly this lantern"
"Daddy" Dylan grinned evilly and looked at Marcus. "My friend told me their cat gave birth to seven orange kittens. He said he doesn't want them. So can we-"
"Stop. I'll fly this" I held the lantern up and released my hand, letting it fly along with rest of the other lanterns, floating above.
"Fly fly fly. Don't come back. No cats. Cats only love whoever is in the kitchen and I happen to be the one in the kitchen and I don't want seven cats around me"
The twins snorted and began laughing. I furrowed my eyebrows and glared at them, shooting daggers through my eyes.
I raised my head to glare next at Marcus but saw him staring at me intently with his deep green eyes.
Before I could think of a joke he pulled me to him, my back pressing against his chest. He kept his chin on my shoulder and leaned into my ear.
"You look so hot when you are angry. I want to eat you"
I coughed and cleared my throat.My cheeks were burning red and I looked ahead, avoiding his eyes in embarrassment.
Music began playing and the wedded couple along with other couples walked to the dance floor.
"My lady. Would you like to dance?" Marcus whispered behind me and I smirked as I nodded my head. Suddenly he spun me around and pulled me closer, our noses touching.
"Let's go guys. Mommy and daddy are getting cheesy" Hannah groaned and dragged Lucas and Dylan away.
I glanced at them and bit my lips trying to control my laughter. "See, they gave us permission. Now let's go" Marcus winked and dragged me to the dance floor.
The entire garden was lit with white hanging lamps flushed into the nature and the sky was clouded with bright yellow lanterns, giving off a romantic sight. Red roses winded along every chair, every table decorating the place into a floral beauty, mesmerising to one's eyes.
I kept one hand on Marcus's shoulder and entwined the other hand with his. The song changed and his lips twitched up into a smile.
Heart beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall
But watching you stand alone
All of my doubt, suddenly goes away somehow
One step closer
"Mmm Twilight vibes. I like it" Marcus took a step forward, his breath fanning against my neck. He slowly trailed his nose along my cheek and gave a soft kiss on my forehead. Then he spun me around and pulled me back to his chest.
"Remember the first time we saw each other?"
I nodded. "At the fashion show"
"Mmm. You told me you don't have time to pet a wild dog like me"
I laughed remembering that moment. It was many years ago but still felt like yesterday.
It was a long journey we went through to be in each other's arms and I don't regret a single moment, no matter how painful it was because at the end it was all worth it. He was the man I loved, the most sweetest and caring person I ever met, the father of my children. My better half.
I have died everyday, waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid, I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
Marcus stared at me, a soft smile on his lips, his eyes wandering in mine as we danced.
Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything, take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath, every hour has come to this
One step closer
"Rowan I had never imagined myself with a beautiful wife and children before. But after I met you I realised I have been missing a part of me all my life. Your kind heart and amazing personality sometimes makes me wonder what I did to deserve you. But all I know is that I'm madly in love with you and can't imagine a life without you"
His lips curved into a small smile as he saw my eyes brimming with tears. He brought his hand up and stroked my chin.
"Rowan, you are the one I remember when I'm happy or sad. You are the one who tolerates my mood swings, my woes and my rants. You taught me how to love. You became everyone I never had. A mother, a wife, a friend" A single tear drop fell down his eyes "You became the world to me Rowan and I thank you for that" He said slowly, skipping a beat in my heart.
I took one step and wrapped my hands around his neck, pulling us closer, our lips almost touching. "I'm so lucky to have you Marcus. I love you"
He smiled, tears sparkling in his eyes. "I love you too Rowan"
Then his soft lips landed on mine, closing the gap, strengthening the knot forever, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cheerish, till death do us apart.
"No no I love chocolate let's go. Quickly" He pushed Marcus to the food tent in a hurry and I couldn't help but smile as I ran to catch up to them.
