Unexpected – Chapter 22

New chapter – a modern, very AU S/T story with Sybil as the older woman who catches the eye of a young Irish journalist in London.

We made it – last chapter of this fic!  Tom and Sybil’s wedding day. 🙂

***

“Are you ready, Sybil?”

“Yes, coming!”

Sybil checked herself in the mirror one more time, then took a deep breath as she stepped out of their bedroom.

Tom turned from the window to look at her as she closed the door. A look of wonder and delight crossed his face, and he lifted his right hand to his heart.

“Feck, you’re so beautiful! You take my breath away, a stór.” He strode over to her and pulled her to him. “I can’t believe… you’re going to marry me today.”

They kissed, long and soft, her hand stroking the back of his neck, his arms wrapped around her waist. As they broke apart, he laughed, putting his fingertip to her bottom lip.

“Have I smudged your lipstick?”

“You’ll be doing a lot more than that before the day’s over, I hope!” She smiled and took his hand. “Anyway, you know I don’t care about all of that.”

She led him down the stairs and out the front door. Once they were outside, she looked up, closing her eyes and smiling. “It’s snowing! That’s got to be good luck, doesn’t it?”

He offered her his arm. “Shall we go, milady?”
