They face the priest and say a word of encouragement from the Bible, after that, he gives them the wedding rings to exchange vows together.
“They say fairytales are overrated, and I believe them. I mean, is there even a happily ever after? Who knows? But when I met you, it seemed like fairytales might just exist, after all. How else would you explain the connection that we felt with each other? When I picture my life with you, a happily ever after does not feel too farfetched, and that is a lot coming from a skeptic like me! You have changed me for the better, love. if I extend my hand in the darkness, I will always find yours, ready to walk with me until we find the light at the end of the tunnel. You are my strength, the gust of joy that picks me up when I am at my lowest. With you, I have found love, and I never want to let you go. Thank you for choosing me over and over again, I love you so much Jayden”.She slipped the ring onto his finger and everyone cheered.
“In your heart, I have found love. In your arms, I have found a home. In your eyes, I have found passion. In your soul, I have found a gentle spirit, I will be a loyal lover in sorrow, triumph, distance, and closeness. I promise to build a life with you. I promise to cover you from the rain, shield you from the wind, and make a warm home for you inside my heart. I promise to stand with you against all your troubles and take care of you when you need protection, I love you, Maya”. He slips the ring onto her finger as both were crying emotionally including the crowd

“Is everything okay?”. Diana asked from behind, Theo turned in her direction surprised to see her ” Hey”.She said
“Um, hey”. He said nervously, Diana moved closer to him.
” Is everything okay? You look pale after getting off the phone with someone”. She asked politely.

They went mute as the environment became awkward for the two of them.
“I”. both said simultaneously and they chuckled.
” You first”. Theo said
“Ok,”. she clears her throat nervously. ” um, I just want to say that I am sorry for the other day”.
“Come on Diana, you owe me no apologies, I totally understand everything, it’s cool by me”. he said.
“No is not, I mean”. She sighs confusedly.” I was wrong, I should have given my heart a second chance”.She said sadly.
“What are you talking about Diana?”.
” I just want to know if I can still get a second chance to your heart?”. She asked.
both became lost in each other eyes.
“Does this mean I got a second chance to court you?”. He asked curiously and Diana smiled.
” Yes, I am ready to open my heart to a new relationship”. She said.
Theo grabbed her waist and pulled her closer as their face were inches apart.
“And I promise to make it right this time”. He cupped her face and locked lips with her softly.
Diana responded quickly as she encircled her arms around his neck, they kissed and caressed each other passionately forgetting they were at the party and anybody could walk in on them.
