The ceremony concluded, and the guests spilled out into the sun-drenched courtyard. Ethan felt as if he could lift the entire church and carry it away with him. Every aspect of the day had been flawless, a welcome change from the gray days that had preceded it. He felt like he was floating on air.

He spotted Olivia across the courtyard. It was almost a shock, but it was a pleasant one. He couldn't help but grin, his eyes sparkling with a renewed sense of invigoration.

He strolled towards her, his hands tucked casually in his pockets. He felt as if he was watching a movie of himself.
