Chapter 5: Dang, I just got hitched!

Sherlock smiled at me with his straight, white teeth. My heart was racing, did him smiling mean yes? "Oh Portia, of course I'll marry you!"

We hugged. "I love you, Sherlock d'Elgin," I whispered in his ear. "And I love you, Portia Sanford", he murmured in reply. Seriously, this is the happiest day of my life. No doubt about it....this was the perfect medicine after the rejection I got from Cobalt. Rejection for a kiss or something like that is bad, but rejection for friendship? It's the pits.

I gazed into Sherlock's hot pink eyes as he stared into my own yellow ones. "Lets get married now", Sherlock said to me with a smile. "Alright.", I replied breathlesly.

Sherlock placed the ring on my finger. I giggled like a school girl, Sherlock looked up at me with a grin.

Sherlock placed his large hands on my smaller ones, "Now we are wed." "Yeah...", I said my mind all aflutter. Sherlock was always so outwardly calm, but I could sense his joy. Now we were husband and wife. He was Mr. Sherlock Sanford and I was Mrs. Portia Sanford. For once the curse had no hold over me, this happiness was my own.
