Before We Get Married Novels & Stories

Now we are about to get married. Preparations for the wedding have already started, and in less than a month, we will be finally and legally married. It seems too good to be true.

Vegas is our first stop, right? We need to get legally married since mom’s ceremony didn’t include the paperwork.” he questioned, looking past me to Mayu and Hachiro.

I nod, I never actually thought about what will happen after we get married, I was just too focused on achieving it. He nods, “that’s fine, I’ll pick you from home tomorrow evening. So you have a day to pack your things” “But I haven’t even informed my family” I state in a panic. He smiles, “well you have a day to tell them. How will my parents believe we are married, if we don’t live together”. I nod, “I understand, I’ll figure something out” I say, looking out the window as I contemplate how to bring up this conversation to my family.

Responsibilities of marriage are very overwhelming. Until I get some things off my mind before I can be able to get married for real but I can never tell. Anything can happen at any time. Before the end of the contract. I will be able to know if it is working out and then I can be able to make it real but for now let's make it as a contract in order to escape the pressures of my parents. "Here is the coffee" "Thank you so much. Please get the documents ready and check the possible date for us to travel for the meeting. We have to be there a day before the meeting. Then if possible try and book a hotel for us"

I've been all smiles for the past few days, right after that day when Keith said we should get married, we have been doing anything but planning. All we ever spent time on was daydreaming of the after, not so much invested on the wedding. We were more then ready for the start of our lives, the start of our story being rewritten.

I even saved a bunch of ideas for the setup. "Sure. Whatever you want. We'll do whatever you like, but there's something even more important we must do once we get back to Dennoria," I said. "What is it?" "We need to register our marriage, of course. That's the first step to becoming husband and wife." "Okay!" Summer hugged me tightly, and we set off toward a blissful future together.

"Hello?" "When will you be free? We can have the wedding in a month, but we should get our marriage registered first." It was Julian. "About that… There's no rush, right?" Angela replied. "It's very easy to get a marriage license these days. We can even get it done a few days before our wedding day." At the mention of a marriage license, Carl grew alert. "Marriage license? What do you mean?"

Weirdos. "Well my dear," She continued. "The thing is, we want to do this stuff as soon as possible." As soon as possible? "S--soon?" I asked in a stammer. "Yes my dear. Is there a problem with that?" She asked as in a fretting tone. "Definitely not." My mum retorted. "I mean, wouldn't we get to know each other before we take any move?" I asked. "Is that important?"

I just want to be ready and I don't want to rush. You know, I want when we get married, I'm ready, you're ready, and we're both ready for what's to come," I answered with a hint of excitement. He smiled. "Why do you want to finish first before we get married?" He asked seriously.

I love the way we are bonding again here, far away from our home where we got married out of love. Being here feels special and it doesn't remind me of the fact that we were married out of convenience. Being here feels like we are celebrating our honeymoon after years of courtship and repeated confession of our love for each other, even though I have confessed mine yet. "Oh, no, baby! We need to be back in New York by next week in preparation for my mother's surgery and your mother's wedding", he reminds me. "But mother's wedding is next weekend", I contradict him.
