William's P.O. V
***
Aye that stung. Even after reading the letter I left to william at the party, he still thinks I will come back to harass him?
I was about to say something but Arthur interrupted me.
"Oh, it make sense now. Asshole, meet my beautiful soon to be husband, William Greyson. William, say hi to this stupid little shit Ian, my cousin" Arthur said, snaking his hand around the guy's shoulder.
They looked really close and friendly!
When Arthur introduced me as his future groom, Ian sighed in relief before giving me a teasing smile
Woah, what a complete change in attitude!
"Oh.. So you're going to marry this big idiot over here? I guess there's no need for me to worry since King Camelot over there won't let you go. My name is Ian Lucifer, nice to meet you! I'm actually a completely normal citizen unlike him" Ian replied, stretching his hand for me to take and I shook his hand, still processing what was happening.
This was the guy with whom Winter fell in love with!
He really does love Winter and even if I wished Winter was mine, it was a good idea to give up on him because he will certainly be happier with Ian!!
"Anyway, to make up for me threatening you, there's a secret I can tell you about Arthur.....wanna know?" Ian said, looking at Arthur who turned pale
"I would rather hear it from him rather than you. Is it something that would make me not trust you?" I asked, looking at Arthur in confusion
Was he hiding something else?
Arture sighed and glared at Ian who was more amused than before
"Go on idiot, tell him your little secret!! I told you when I was kid, remember? I'll make you pay for fooling me into wearing a dress when I was 10" Ian complained and Arthur grumbled and I chuckled, Imagining Ian in a dress.
"Do you really want to know?" Arthur asked and I nodded slowly
"I guess yeah? No lies, remember?" I pointed out and Arture nodded
"I... Uh... I am one of the 5% male who can bear children" He said quickly. His cheeks turned slightly red I could feel a smile tugging at my lips
He can get pregnant??
I did not care about the whole blood or lineage thing, I just thought that it would be magical for me to take care of my own child and my pregnant partner.
"I'm not going to let you fuck me!" Arthur added quickly and I pouted, looking away
Fineeeee
"Awe come on, don't be like that" Arthur complained and I pecked his hand
"Okay... But I won't give up!!"
.....
One month had passed by now. Arthur and I were buzy preparing for our marriage with a restricted amount of people since Arthur only wanted family members
He told me he didn't invit his dad even if he wanted to. He was convinced that his dad would think that I was forced into this marriage.
I wasn't forced to.
I could have denied but I didn't.
I have no idea how life with Arthur is going to be. I don't know how he lives his life, what he does, where he lives....almost nothing
What I do know is that he is rather sweet and considerate.
Usually, for a wedding, couples argue a lot because both of them want something of their choice but surprisingly, Arthur and I planned our wedding without trouble.
We both agreed on what the other wanted and barely had disagreements. Let's just say, most of the time our taste matched. When it didn't, I noticed that Arthur would compromise and allow me to do what I wanted without objection
I did catch him sulk about the colors of the flowers for the cake.....even if he agreed with my choice. I found it real cute how he keep staring at the flower of his choice while browsing through some albums.
So, I compromised and chose the flowers he wanted and well, he was really happy. I was kind of starting to see him as a giant puppy which was a rather cute image.
Arthur didn't really smile in front of others but he acted differently with me. He would always listen attentively to what I had to say and he would react positively when I said a joke.
When it concerned me, he didn't try to hide his emotions and it gave me the sense of equality. He didn't treat me as one of his men but rather, he treated me as his equal, as someone he was going to spend the rest of his life with.
It took me a week to convince dad to allow me to marry Arthur. He only accepted after Arthur talked to him. Arthur told dad about his past and surprisingly, dad believed him. Somehow, we always had this 'special' gut feelings since long and just like me, dad did not feel anything wrong after Arthur told him the truth.
He accepted Arthur as his own son and Arthur was kind of emotional
Today was finally our wedding day and I was kind of nervous.
Did I actually take the right decision?
"Look at my handsome son, getting married" Dad said, coming into the room and I stared at him in hesitation
"What's wrong, kiddo?" He asked in concern and I bit my lips
"I don't know anymore. I want to do it for our gang, I really want to help my family but I'm scared. For me, marriage isn't something to joke about. For me, divorce is unthinkable. Marriage is a sacred bond and I wanted to marry the person I love" I mumbled as tears filled my eyes and dad hugged me
"I know kiddo, I know. Are you really against marrying Arthur?" He asked and I pulled back
"I don't know! That's why I'm confused. I don't want to marry anymore but at the same time, I want to because Arthur has been working really hard to plan this. For him, it's the happiest day of his life and I don't want to ruin it. I feel like it's unfair for him to marry someone like me....someone who doesn't match his enthusiasm into this whole thing. It's really unfair!" I complained in frustration
Arthur deserves someone who loves him....was I really doing good? Wouldn't it hurt him more to know that I do not want this marriage?
Dad smiled and wiped my tears before pecking my forehead.
"You're 19, Will, only 19. Of course you'll be worried and unsure! Let me ask you something, if it wasn't Arthur, that is, If someone else asked you to marry them, promising you the same thing Arthur did, would you have said yes? Would you have married them if they weren't Arthur?" He asked
I haven't even thought about it.
Would I?
"I know you, William. You don't care about people you hate. You don't even think of someone whom you don't appreciate! With Arthur though, it's different. You're thinking of his happiness, aren't you? You don't want to break his heart, isn't that a good start? Isn't it because you care for him? I saw you with him, Will. You're carefree and you look so happy. If your love for winter is what's stopping you then, I'm sorry to say but I don't believe that you loved Winter, I think it was infatuation" Dad said before continuing
"You've never ever talked to Winter before! What I do know though, is that you care for Arthur, whether you know it or not. I'll support you no matter what what you choose and I want to tell you that I met Arthur earlier. He told me to let you know that it's still not too late for you to say no. He understand if you decide to cancel the marriage. I think so too! You still have a choice, okay? Nobody will be against your decision, absolutely nobody." He said, patting my head and I nodded
Even now, Arthur is still thinking of me....even now, he's allowing me to choose for myself
"I'll miss you so much, dad. I love you" I said and dad smiled, helping me wear my tie
"I'll miss you the most" He whispered with teary eyes before hugging me
"I will marry Arthur....I am now certain"
..
I walked at the altar, looking around in awe. Arthur really did a good job in organising the place. The surrounding was decorated by white, black and red rose, my favourites. The cake was Arthur's favourite and the suit, his choice.
I was wearing a beautiful blue suit with silver borders and white roses pinned on the fabric while Arthur wore a black one with gold borders and red roses pinned on his fabric.
We both chose each others clothes and ring that is, I chose his and he chose mine.
Arthur stood at the altar nervously, looking somehow sexier than usual.
When his eyes met mine, he froze and blinked slowly. I smiled nervously and he bit his lips, his eyes starting to fill with tears
Awe so cute and gorgeous!!
When I reached there, the priest started receiting the verses while Arthur and I looked at each other
My heart pounded against my chest and I took a deep breath
To be honest, I was still hesitant
I then thought about what dad said.
Arthur looked really happy and seeing his happiness, I felt a strange sense of peacefulness. I was kind of overwhelmed that I was the cause for Arthur's happiness
He looked at me like I was the most important person in his world and that's when I took a decision; I'll make him the most important person in my life someday.
Maybe I am not the one for him right now, maybe I do not deserve him right now but one day, in the future, I will be.
"Arthur Carson, do you take William Greyson as your partner and promise to love him forever?"
"I do" Arthur replied without hesitation and I couldn't help but smile at how cute that was. He was holding my hand and his were shaking in nervousness
I could hear my heart pound heavily against my chest and I couldn't look away from his happy expressions
"William Greyson, do you take Arthur Carson as your husband, promise to love and cherish him for eternity?" He asked and my breath hitched
Arthur's smile disappeared when I didn't answer and he now had a worried expression on his face
I am now certain....
"I do" I replied, giving Arthur a reassuring smile and he sighed in relief
"I now pronounce you husband and husband. You may kiss the groom" He said and Arthur and I leaned close
He cupped my cheeks and pressed his nose against mine
"Can I kiss you, beautiful?" He whispered and I smiled
"Oh, now you're asking for permission? How about when you kissed my cheeks without asking the other time?" I teased
"I apologise for that, William. I'll never do anything without your permission!! Can I kiss you?" He asked softly and I chuckled, giving him a nod of approval
He pressed his lips against mine and I closed my eyes, enjoying the soft skin against mine. I could hear people clap and Arthur pulled back, staring into my eyes before pressing a kiss on my nose
"Pretty" He whispered, pressing another kiss on my forehead
"So so pretty...." He whispered and I could feel my cheeks turned pink as I buried my face on his chest
I swear I'm gonna be dead with his sweet words!!!
I was now married to Arthur and I was gonna be his forever.....unless I kill him-
Eh let's not go there!!
Would I love him someday?
Yes, I'm sure he'll win my heart.
After a while, the guests started heading to the dining area while dad came to talk to us.
"I expect you to take good care of my son, Arthur!! However, not going to lie but I'm more scared for you than him...Still, make sure I don't see a single bruise on him" Dad exclaimed, patting Arthur's back and I grinned while Arthur nodded seriously
"I promise dad! No matter how angry I can get, I will never hurt him. I will also protect him from everyone who dares to humiliate him. I will make sure no one harms him" Arture promised and Lucifer who arrived out of nowhere snorted, flicking Arthur's forehead
"Oh big guy, stop trying to play the nice guy. Rest assure sir, hes a big softy! He won't do anything to hurt Willaim. Like you said, we should all be scared of William instead! You have to promise me that you won't hurt this idiot over here. He'll do anything you ask him to do and if you get angry at him, he might cry silently without you knowing. He's my most important person and I hope you'll cherish him just like he'll cherish you with all his heart" Ian said in adoration and I smiled softly while Arthur looked down, his cheeks turning pink at Lucifer's word
How cute!
"I promise...I will cherish Arthur as much I can"
After cutting our cake and dancing for somewhile, at around 15.30, we set off to Arthur's place...our place.
However, I frowned when I saw that we were taking the direction to the beach
"Are we going to the beach?" I asked and he nodded
"Yeah, I want to spend time with you. Do you think we could buy ice cream as a wedding present?" He asked and I laughed
"Only you, Arthur"
..
A/N, a little background explanation because of a comment I got on the last chapter. Basically, william had been planning to marry winter ever since they were 14 and Winter WAS AWARE of the marriage deal William made with Winter's family.
The deal was that they were going to get a huge sum of money.
William's gang would pay for winter's education as well as that of his two little siblings. Winter knew and ACCEPTED to marry William but he fell for Ian because even after the proposal, William never showed himself in front of winter to allow Winter to enjoy his life at the fullest. Ian is William's classmate. That day at the party, william had left winter a letter telling him that he did not have to marry William.
Winter and Ian's story is actually a oneshot from wattpad. I will post it here at the end of this book.
