Happily ever after (The end)
They left the room. Rose was sitting alone waiting for her call. She was holding blue flowers. The flowers with which Ash proposed. That day many things changed. Today too.
Rose remembered their meeting started due to going to the beach. Then Ash proposed to her on a beach. And today their wedding will be on the beach.
She remembered how she met him when she was a child. The first thing she noticed was his eyes. Then he again saved her from death. Then again from being sold. Then again in the car accident, again in the restaurant, then again from drowning. He kept on saving her.
She remembered how he helped her speak. How he not only saved her but made her alive. She remembered each and every touch they shared. Each and every kiss. Finally, Rose touched her flat belly. She did not tell him but she will today. She will say that she was carrying his child. Their child. Rose smiled.
Her father came in and said, "Rose, it is time."
Rose held her father's hands. They reached the beach. All her friends and family were present. All were smiling. But Rose didn't see anything except his lips. Which turned upward upon gazing at her? She did not know how she got to him. She came to her senses when her father put her hand on his. Rose looked at their entangled hand. Ash helped her to come on stage.
Rose looked at him. He was wearing a white tuxedo and white shirt. His hair was combed with gel. However, what made her legs weak were his eyes. It was a dark shade of ash. Whenever he was happy, his eyes turned a darker shade. Just like now. He kept on smiling. He saw Rose was looking at him and bent down. He said, "You don't have to look so hard. I am all yours." Rose came to her senses and blushed. She said in a low volume, "That's right. You are mine and mine alone."
Then the ceremony began. However, here instead of priests, Xavier conducted the ceremony. He recited a few lines and asked them to say their Vows.
Ash looked at her and said, "I, Ash Khan, will always protect your smile. I will stay with you in every step of your life. I will support you in all aspects. I will share my happiness and sadness with you. I will trust you and promise to tell you the truth. I will love and cherish you throughout my life." The vow was so like Ash. Straightforward and simple. Then Xavier asked Rose to say her vow.
Rose looked at the man she loved. She could not believe she was standing before him swearing eternal love.
Rose started, "I, Rose Khan will love you. I will respect you and cherish the time we spent together. I will trust you and share my concern with you. I will protect the love we have and be together forever. I will support you. I will share our happiness and sadness for the rest of my life."
Bella and Roy brought two rings. It was a simple one-stone ring with a heart shape. And for Ash, it was a simple platinum band with their name engraved into it. They exchanged the ring and Xavier announced the ceremony's end and wished them all the best for their future.
Ash hugged Rose and said, "Now, my wife, you have nowhere to run."
Rose said, "I don't want to run but be caged within your arms"
And they shared a kiss. Even after so many kisses, both felt like it was their first time kissing. It was a sweet kiss but both became breathless.
Rose said, "I have a gift for you."
"What is it?" Ash asked.
Rose went on tiptoe and said, "You are going to be a father."
Ash looked at her. He was confused. Then said, "Really?"
Rose blushed and nodded.
Ash's lips broke into a beautiful smile. He left her up and said, "Rose, thank you. I am the happiest man in this world."
"Okay, okay, put me down," Rose laughed.
Ash said, "Are you alright? Do you want to sit? Do you want to eat something? Wait, do you have vertigo?" You shouldn't stand for so long."
He kept ongoing. Rose said, "Chill my dear hubby. I am fine. No, I am not just fine, I am so happy that I can fly."
Ash kissed her head and said, "I love you, Rose." No matter how many times he told her she found it the loveliest melody.
Rose said, "I love you, Ash." Both hugged each other and the photographer said, "Smile."
Both gave their best smiles and promised to live happily ever after.
●●●AUTHOR'S NOTE●●●
Today is the last day I will be writing two of my favorite characters. Both have their flaws. I never wanted to make anyone perfect. As I believe, no one is perfect. When I created Rose and Ash, I thought about different aspects. How Rose suffered and overcame it then again suffered. To tell you the truth, if anyone put himself or herself in her shoes they will understand the pain she went through. And as for Ash, instead of making a domineering CEO, I want him to be a simple boy who falls in love. And he protects his love no matter what. Personally, I love Ash the most. He was picture-perfect of what I personally want as a man. But I love him for his unconditional love. He was the strongest character in this book. And last but not least Roy and Bella. I did not tell their story in detail. But I might in the future if I felt like writing about them. However, do remember they also had a rough journey.
I wanted to thank all my lovely readers. I was encouraged by all of you. Your support makes me write this story. In addition, your support will make me write more in the future.
*** Please make sure to love yourself no matter who you are. Moreover, love the people around you. Only love can break the toughest sword. Only love can bring you peace. And please don't judge anyone before you know about him/ her properly. A simple word can save someone and this simple word can kill someone. So be kind and enjoy your life.
I will knock on your door with new stories. Till then do not forget Rose and Ash.
From your cute author,
Sunshine
~~~~~~THE END~~~~~~
