A/N: Last chapter! Yay!

Today was the day. That one very important day where everything would have to be perfect. My dress looked absolutely stunning. Erik's jaw is gonna drop when he sees me walking down that aisle. I stared at myself in the mirror. It was such a surprise to find myself here in this position. Not once had I ever thought that I would marry my choir teacher because who dreams of stuff like that, but it didn't matter now; in mere minutes, I would be at the altar ready to become Mrs. Destler.

"Your dad is waiting." a guy said from the door. Grabbing my bouquet on the way out the door, I followed the man to the doors that led into the chapel. My dad was standing there with a look of pride and happiness on his face. He reached out with one hand to brush my cheek. I could feel his hand shaking.

"Marta, I'm so happy for you. If your mother could have been here, well, she would be bawling her eyes out for one, but she would be so proud of you and how you're starting a new life with him." His voice was strong as he spoke. "She always thought Erik was good for you, even when I had my doubts, but for her sake, I put those aside."

"Dad, I love you." I wrapped my arms around his neck doing my best not to cry. He hugged me back, but pulled back quickly.

"Well, let's get this over with, then." Taking my arm, dad led me into the chapel. Everybody stood as we entered the room. All eyes were on me as I walked towards my husband to-be. I nearly cracked up when I saw his eyes. They were big as those small Frisbees that you got as party favors when you were a kid, but there was love in those gorgeous eyes. Before I knew it, I was standing there in front of Erik and the ceremony began.

As I stood there, I continually gazed up at Erik as he gazed down at me. We answered when spoken to and spoke when needed. Suddenly, the moment came for me to finish this once and for all with two simple words.

"And do you, Marta, take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband?"

"I do." My voice was loud and clear. Erik smiled as tears filled is eyes.

"Then as long as you both shall live, I pronounce you husband and wife. You may now..." Before the priest could finish, Erik's lips had find mine and were locked in a kiss. Sparks flew across my vision and I could hear the claps and cries of joy from all who had attended the wedding. Erik pulled back and took my hand in his, then led me down the aisle, out the doors, and towards a limo we had ordered for the occasion. I turned my back to all the people behind us, looked over my shoulder, and tossed the bouquet into the air. Gina was the lucky one and caught it. She ran up to me and squeezed me nearly to death.

"Have fun, Mrs. Destler, but not too much fun." She winked and my face reddened.

"Thanks, Gina. Don't forget to call me sometime, alright?" Gina nodded and gave me a quick hug before pushing me towards the waiting Erik who took my hand and helped me into the back of the limousine. With a few words to the driver, we pulled out of the parking lot and onto the road.

"So how does it feel to be my wife?" Erik asked while pulling me into his arms.

"I love it, Erik. I love you."

Four years later...

"3...2...1. Ready or not here I come!" I shouted and began looking all over the house. Suddenly, a giggle came from the kitchen so I crept into that room. Once again a giggle came, and it came from inside the pantry. "Hmm... I wonder where that little girl could be. She must have disappeared into thin air. I might as well just give up." I said sarcastically.

"Mommy, mommy! I'm right here!" The pantry door flew open and my daughter, Melissa, came running into my arms. She wrapped her arms around my neck and held onto me like I was her only way of living. "I didn't disappear. I would never do that to you or daddy."

"I'm glad you wouldn't, sweetheart." I whispered into her ear. I looked up at the clock to see it was nearly time for Erik to be getting home. Just as I stood up, arms wrapped around my waist and I jumped. Melissa began laughing at my frightened jump.

"Gotcha'." Erik said from behind me. I turned around in his arms and kissed him. "Hello to you too." he smiled. Melissa came over and pulled on Erik's pant leg in an attempt to get his attention. He quickly scooped her up into his arms and planted a kiss on her cheek. "How are you, my little girl? Have you been behaving for your mother?"

"I've been good. Mommy and I were playing hide n' seek. She thought I disappeared, but then I told her I didn't." she said while staring up at her dad adoringly. Erik smiled and then sat her on the ground. She ran off out of the kitchen to who knows where.

"Erik... how was work?" I asked nervously.

"It was good besides the absolutely annoying students in my class who think it is funny to slack off, but I taught them better with a week full of detention." he said as he went over to the fridge and pulled out some ground beef to make tacos. "How was your day, Marta?"

"Filled with our energetic three year old, but there is something that made my day even better." Erik looked questionably at me. "Erik... I'm pregnant." I said excitedly. "And I hope this one isn't as full of energy as Melissa." The look on Erik's face was the same as when I told him I was pregnant with Melissa.

"Oh Marta!" he nearly dropped the frying pan on the ground as he raced over to wrap his arms around me. "I'm so happy right now. I never thought I could be this happy again. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me, and I want you to know that. Never forget it." Erik pulled back from our hug to kiss me. In the middle of our kiss, I heard a crash come from another room in the house. Erik pulled back and had a pouty face.

"Well, I better go and see what she's done this time." I turned to leave, but Erik caught my hand and pulled me in for a quick kiss. "I love you too."
