Your wedding

"And do you, Nicole Fisher, take John Doe to be your lawfully wedded husband?"

"I do" Nicole said, smiling broadly at you. After repeating the priest's words, you put the ring on Nicky's finger before she did the same to you.

"Then now, by the power vested in me by the church, I declare you man and wife. John, you may kiss the bride." With a big grin that made some of the guests laugh you leaned in and kissed your brand-new wife hard on the lips. She murmured happily, embracing you until you stood up straight again and pulled her to her feet. With a smile you held her hand and looked at your guests. That was it for the ceremony; it was now time to go to Hannon Hall and party. Before that, though, you had some time with your wife.

"We're married now" she told you with a big smile.

"We are" you replied, hugging her and kissing her.

"Kids? Your car's here" your mom called from outside the room.

"You coming?" Nicole asked.

"Just a second" you said with a grin as you watched her walk towards the door.

After the first dance with Nicole and of course all your female relatives, and slicing the cake, your friend and classmate Leah approached the two of you.

"I can't believe you two got married" she said. You'd met Nicole through her, so she knew both of you well. In fact, she'd introduced you to your lovely bride.

"You snooze you lose, girlfriend" Nicole told her.

"Yeah, but come on, him and I have been flirting for years" Leah said.

"See the previous" your wife replied with a big grin.

"I know, I know" Leah said, "I'm happy for the both of you. You're a good fit."

"Are we?" you asked, smiling.

"Of course you are. Sure, you're not religious while she is, but you're a lot alike. I think you'll do just fine" your friend said.

"Thanks for your vote of confidence" Nicole said with a laugh. "But yes, my husband and I will do just fine."

After the party you and your brand new wife were ushered out of the building after being told to change and doing so. Outside, a cab was waiting for you.

"Mom?" you asked, looking at her.

"Just get in, sweetheart. Me and Tony and Nadine orchestrated your honeymoon" she told you.

"What about clothes?" Nicole asked.

"We've taken care of that" Nicole's mom Nadine said.

"So just get in and enjoy the ride, sweetie" Tony told his daughter.

"Oh...wow" you said, speechless. "You've already done so much."

"It's the least we could do for taking our daughter off our hands" your now father-in-law said.

"Oh, daddy" Nicole said, embracing her father. "Thank you so much."

"It's okay, pumpkin. Just enjoy it" he repeated.

"Thanks Tony" you said, squeezing his shoulder in thanks. In response he just pulled you into the bearhug too. Nadine and your mom laughed before getting hugs of their own in and shooing you inside of the cab.

"Where are you taking us?" Nicole asked.

"The airport, of course" the cabbie said. "That's all I know."

"Well...alright" you said, looking at Nicole with a smile. "Drive on, I guess."

When you were at the airport it turned out that Rebecca and Nicole's brother Stewart were waiting for you already. They'd apparently left the party early to prepare for your coming. Smiling broadly at you, your sister embraced you.

"I was wondering where you'd gone" Nicole told her brother as they hugged too. "I figured maybe you'd snuck off with Rebecca."

"Well, I did" Stewart said, "but not in the way you're thinking. I'm seeing Alexandra, remember?"

"Yeah and I'm with Mona" your big sister added. "We just snuck out to get a few things ready. Speaking of" she said, handing you two tickets. "Here's your tickets" she said. Stewart handed his sister a key.

"And this is the key to the locker at the other airport" he said. "I know you can read, but it's locker 471."

"Where is this other airport?" you asked, studying the tickets. "Wait, are you for real?" you said when you noticed the name on the ticket.

"What?" asked Nicole, snatching the tickets from you. "Are you being serious right now? I've always wanted to go there!"

"Yep" Rebecca said, grinning broadly. "We got you tickets to Hawaii!"

"Wow, thanks you guys" Nicole said, hugging both your sister and her brother at the same time.

"You're welcome, sis. Now get going. Your flight is leaving in 45 minutes and you still have to clear customs" Stewart told the two of you.

"What about clothes and toiletries?" you asked.

"Everything's been taken care of, little brother" Rebecca said. "Now get going."

You gave her a hug and clapped Stewart on the back before taking Nicole's hand. "You ready to go, sweetheart?" you asked her.

"Yeah" she replied with a big smile. "Thanks again, you guys" she told the two siblings before looking at you. "Let's go."

Your trip on the plane was fast and without any problems, with the two of you falling asleep almost immediately. The first thing you heard when you came to was that you were being told to put your trays up and your seatbelts on. Making sure that your wife was awake to do the same, you looked her over. She gave you a tired smile and put her head on your shoulder.

"I can't believe we're married now" she said, taking your hand.

"I can't believe I'm here with someone as beautiful as you" you replied, squeezing her hand.

"Aw, thank you" Nicole said, blushing. "You already won my heart, though. No need to keep sweet talking me."

"I don't care" you told her. "I'm going to keep doing it because you obviously love it."

"Yeah, I do" your wife admitted, giggling softly. "I'm hungry for compliments."

"Well, I love you, you're gorgeous, and I'm going to treat you right" you said.

"Please do" she said, smiling before taking your hand again. "I'll treat you right, too."

"Thank you" you said, kissing her lips tenderly. Nicole murmured happily and then let out a content sigh, waiting with you for the plane to land.

You opened your the locker at the airport and found two bags. One had a label with your name and the other with Nicole's name on it. "Nicole Doe" she said, smiling. "I love it so much."

"Is that the only reason you said yes?" you asked.

"Of course not" Nicole said with a laugh. "You've been a wonderful boyfriend." The two of you followed the directions that Rebecca had prepared for you while you talked. "You're also treated me right. And you've also respected all my wishes."

"Yeah?" you asked.

"Absolutely" she said. "You have no idea what it means to me that you didn't push me into anything."

"I have a pretty good idea" you said, "you know, what with the whole marrying in church thing."

"Alright, fine, that was a thing. But not just that. Not once did you try to cop a feel" she said, "and I really appreciate that."

"What about kisses?" you asked.

"Kisses were fine" your wife replied. "Though there was some debate about that, too."

"Really?" you said with a laugh. "Kisses?"

"Yeah, really" she answered with a grin. "Mostly my grandmother. She said that kissing would lead to more and she swore that it would lead to me losing my virginity before marriage."

"Well, you didn't" you said.

"I didn't" she confirmed. Her cheeks went red again. "But I'll lose it tonight, right?"

"Whatever my wife wants, she gets" you told her.

"Then yes" she replied. "I want you to take my virginity tonight, baby." She gave you a searching look, making you smile.

"What is it?" you asked.

"Just wondering what's going on in that head of yours" Nicole said, squeezing your hand.

"Well, I'm nervous" you told her. This made your beautiful wife laugh.

"What? Why?" she asked. "You told me you've been with other girls before."

"Yeah, but not with you" you replied. "I've never seen you in anything less than your Sunday best."

"You will tonight" Nicole said with a big smile. "But why does that make you nervous?"

"Do you want me to be honest?" you asked.

"Didn't our vows include honesty?" your wife shot back at you.

"Well, I'm a little worried. What if I don't like what I see?" you said.

"You already said yes" Nicole said with a giggle. "Besides, you love me, right?"

"Of course I do" you told her.

"So then what does my body matter?" she asked.

"Look, there's something to say for physical attraction, too" you told her. "But you're right. I love you regardless."

"I love you too" Nicole said, smiling broadly and kissing your lips tenderly.

After checking in at the resort, you were driven to the house you were going to stay at for the next three weeks. The two of you looked around and marvelled at the luxury that your parents had sprung for.

"We're really going to have to do our best to make it up to them" Nicole said.

"Yeah, we are. I best go to Bible school" you told her, only half joking.

"Speaking of the Bible, we're going to have to institute a swear jar" Nicole told you.

"What? Why?" you asked.

"We need to set an example for our kids" she explained. "Plus I'm hoping you won't swear as much if it costs you every time you do."

"For you, I'll try" you promised.

"Good" your wife said. "Now wait for me, okay?"

"What? Why for?" you asked.

"Just wait, husband of mine" Nicole said. She pushed you down on the couch and walked into the bedroom. A little later she told you to close your eyes, which you did. You heard the door to the bedroom open and heard Nicole move closer to you.

"Can I look now?" you asked.

"Go right ahead, handsome" Nicole said. What you saw was nothing short of spectacular. You watched in awe as your beautiful wife, now wearing nothing but lingerie, lifted her veil while keeping her eyes on yours. That was a losing prospect, of course, as you only had eyes for your wife's magnificent body.
