BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1301 - Their First Dance As A Married Couple
Since father-daughter dance is officially over, Sarah gave Edward a hug and kissed his cheek.
"Thanks dad…", she said softly.
Edward pressed his lips into a line and placed Sarah\'s hand in Aiden\'s. He wanted to say something memorable, but he was choking on the tears he was trying to push back with all his might, so he walked away without a word.
"Hey…", Aiden called as he pulled Sarah toward him. "Are you ready for our first dance, Mrs. White?"
Sarah smiled in response and placed her hands on his shoulders. She does not know what to expect, Aiden picked the song and refused to tell her what it will be. Sarah thought that her hands on his shoulders are a great starting point, he will take it from there, as usually.
Aiden gave a nod toward the band and Sarah was surprised when a slow tune started. The two of them usually dance to faster beats, blazing over the dancefloor and this is definitely a ballad.
As the notes reached them, they moved slowly and no matter how much Sarah tried, she could not figure out what song this is. She is not much into slow songs, but this is their first dance as a married couple and Sarah should be at least familiar with it. The tune is sweet and super-melodious and she likes it, but Sarah always thought that for their first dance after the \'I-dos\' people would pick a song that means something to the both of them, how could Aiden pick a song she never heard before?
Sarah\'s eyes opened wide and she blinked few times rapidly when she heard a deep and magnetic voice right next to her ear. Oh, my God! Aiden is singing!
"I was in the dark,
not knowing what is true
And with you I saw the stars,
they shine for you."
There is no microphone, and it is only for her to hear, but she can hear him loud and clear…
"You came into my life
and I saw colors in your light
And at that moment I knew,
you are my other half of White."
She listened to his words and could not believe how fitting the words are. Did he write the song as well?
"I drew a line around us,
and even if you do wrong
I will bleed for you happiness,
this is where you belong."
Sarah was not sure what was more touching: the lyrics, his enchanting voice, or the way he looked at her. She was barely breathing, doing her best to take in all of this and not disturb the perfection. Yes. That is her husband. Perfect.
"Today our lives begin,
merged into one
I will stay true to us,
until the stars are done…"
The song ended and their guests clapped and Sarah was staring at Aiden like a love stricken fool.
The band started playing some other song and the dance area was filled with other dancing couples which trickled in.
Sarah and Aiden held each other, like they didn\'t notice anything around them. And they didn\'t. The two of them were in their own impenetrable love bubble.
Aiden saw that she is looking at him in awe and he smiled shyly. "Did you like it?"
Sarah inhaled a choppy breath when she snapped out of her daze. "Are you kidding me? It\'s amazing… You are amazing! I love it. I love you!"
Aiden exhaled in relief. He feared that she might not like it and he was working on this for a long time. He saw Sarah\'s reaction when Felix serenaded Sophia and when Jeff sang for JoAnna and he told himself that he should not lag behind those two. He was never much into music, but he picked up few things from online courses sneakily and wrote a song for Sarah, hoping that she will like it.
Sarah remembered how more than once Aiden refused to sing. Even if she caught him signing or humming when he thought that he is alone, as soon as she approached, he would stop.
"Tell me, Mister Frank Sinatra… Why are you refusing to sing to your audience?" Sarah gestured toward herself.
Aiden chuckled when he heard that she compared him to Frank Sinatra. "I sing only for myself. And because we are married now, you are a part of me. Officially."
Sarah\'s eyes lit up. "Is this one of the perks of being married?"
"Mhm…", he hummed in confirmation.
"I don\'t remember you mentioning singing when you listed options which come with marrying you.", Sarah reminded him.
"That is because I am all inclusive. You name it, and I deliver.", he said cheekily.
Sarah laughed.
"Does this mean that I will hear you sing going forward?"
Aiden paused. This was his first time singing in front of someone in a very-very long time, probably since he was in the elementary school in music class (which was mandatory), but he can\'t say \'no\' to Sarah. "If you wish."
"I wish! Oh, how I wish! You have a wonderful voice. It\'s a pity that you are hiding it...", Sarah paused and thought about her last sentence. "Scratch that. You should hide it. There are already so many girls after you. If you release that voice to the masses your fangirls will multiply!"
Aiden looked at her dotingly. "And you know that no matter how many girls out there are looking my way, you are the only one for me."
Sarah nodded in confirmation and added: "Until the stars are done."
Aiden smiled brightly when he heard her use the line from his song.
Sarah hugged him tightly. "Thank you, my love. Our first dance as a married couple was perfect."
"I am glad you approve. We will have many firsts and I will do my best to make them count."
"What is next?", Sarah asked Aiden. He is not telling her much in advance, and she gave up on being nosy, but she wants to know at least a little bit. She also promised not to use Eve, so Sarah feels like some of her senses are cut off without Eve-vision lenses and ear-studs.
"Dinner is at seven, so we have about two hours until then. Do you want to do some activity? Or dance? Or just mingle with the guests?"
Sarah thought for a second before asking. "Any trouble with Marija?"
She is cut off from Eve, but she knows that they would track potential troublemakers. And Marija has a potential to create trouble.
Aiden shook his head to assure her. "Not so far… You will be pleased to hear that Michael is handling it well."
Sarah\'s curiosity bubbled. "Oh?"
Aiden tapped her nose and winked. "Relax. Everything is under control. You need to tell me, what do you want to do?"
Sarah understood that Aiden does not want to talk about it. And it\'s probably better to stay that way. Well, as long as things are under control and Michael is handling it, she can relax. "There is still quite a bit of people who didn\'t get a chance to talk to us. Considering that they came all the way here, I think that we should mingle."
Aiden didn\'t object. "Whatever you say, Mrs. White."
