I do

"Wait," he said. He ripped some pages up.

I instantly felt it. The calmness didn't vanish but it was like, I could let it go. It was different from before though, the anger in my core was just simmering. I tried removing the ring and no anxiety. So he removed the commands. But why?

"Now. Do you want to get married right now?" he asked me.

Wait, there it was. Something. I wasn't exactly sure what. But... something was happening. I couldn't fight it. "Yes. I do."

He patted me on the back. "Then what are you waiting for?" he said.

"I don't know," I said. It was true I didn't. I wanted to get married. Like I really did. I loved Kat. I think maybe on some level. I always did. Either way. had no doubts right now. I knew the truth of my heart. I ran to her. "Let's get married!"

"Do you feel it? Most of the commands vanished?" she asked me.

"I do! It feels great! I feel so good! What about you? You feel it too?" I asked.

She nodded. "I do too! I feel love for you still. It feels real! Like I still want to marry you!"

"Me too! Lets go talk to our parents!" I said.

I ran over to my mom and dad. They were in nice clothing too. "Really Tessa, did you have to plan for this so last minute!"

"I didn't plan it," I said. it was so nice to just be honest. "Let me go first. Dad, would ya walk me down the isle?" I asked.

He took my hand. Samuel had set up some chairs. Enough for our families and in the back I noticed 9 chairs. I realized looking at them what that meant. Samantha, Lisa, Hannah, and Chloe were over there too. The other 4 were the other winners. I guess I would finally get to meet them soon.

After I was at the end of the isle. Clara came down and tossed flowers. She seemed so happy in her cute little dress. Then... my mind was blown away. Kat. She was so gorgeous. Her father walked her up to where I was. And then Samuel got up. He walked to us. "Wait, your a pastor?"

"I'm many things Tessa," he said. Oh god why even be surprised anymore.

He began reading through the normal marriage vows.

"I do," I said when it was my turn.

"I do too," Kat said.

We kissed and everyone began cheering.

In that moment Samuel leaned close. "So, Tessa. Do you willingly and freely surrender yourself to me as per the lose condition of the game?"
