The Weight of a Marriage

Chapter 1 - The ceremony

Listen to this chapter - just press play:
It was finally the day, after five years of dating Clint was marrying his girlfriend Evaline. They had met in college crossing paths in the gym. Clint had been on the Lacrosse team and Eva had run cross country. Both of them had been walking into the squat rack, Clint’s head turned talking to a buddy and Eva looking for just the right song on her phone to get her pumped. They had walked right into each other and the rest was history. Clint now stood proud on the altar, dressing in his tuxedo, broad shoulders and v tapered body accentuated, beaming with pride as he looked over all the friends and family that had come to celebrate their special day with the new husband and wife to be.


After a brief moment of silence, music began to que and Clint saw his future wife emerge from the double doors at the far end of the chapel. Her silky blonde hair reflected the light as her perfect skin glowed in the light penetrating the windows. She made her way to the altar slowly, flashing a reserved and sheepish smile as her slim athletic legs took dainty steps forward. Eva’s modest bust was enhanced by the elegant white wedding dress and superior push up bra she had selected. Most would consider her dainty, a bit bashful, and very modest. Clint and Eva’s eyes crossed and the two lovers emitting an air of passion.


The ceremony was simple but elegant with Clint and Eva exchanging their vows and sharing their first kiss as husband and wife. Their friends and family clapped and cheered as they proceeded back towards the exit. Clint passed his father on the right who clapped him hard on the shoulder smiling with pride. The couple continued their exit as they then passed Eva’s mother. Clint had a quick double take as at first glance the woman seemed to be muttering something and upon seeming him almost appeared to hold him in contempt. Upon reinspection she had a warm smile and he chalked it off to the emotions of the day playing a tick upon his eyes.


Clint and Eva exited the chapel and got into the back of the car waiting for them at the cusp of the road. As they sat down Eva lay her head on Clint’s shoulder and let out a contented sigh.


“I Hope you dance better than the last time we were at a wedding Clint, everyone will be watching this time” Eva giggled.


Clint placed his arm around Eva and rested his hand on her hip as he gave her a small peck on the lips. “I’m more worried about the cake and booze ruining my macros for the week” He chuckled back.
