Julia smiled and had to lift their hands toward her to run one finger under her eye to catch a tear before smiling sheepishly at her reaction. She heard Philip ask aloud who it was that gave her to Nick and, the time now to surprise Kat, Derek stood and said with a grin of his own "I do. Now get it over with so he can kiss her already." She chuckled as Philip teased him and told him to sit down so he could finish and then turned to Kat to ask for the rings. Julia chuckled softly at Kat's expression as, following Philip's lead she brought the box over to Julia and Nick and waited for them to take the rings within. Julia did, pausing long enough to gently touch Kat's cheek and a small rose before winking and asking her in a bare whisper if she could hold the stone before taking the ring and turning to Nick. "With this ring," she intoned in the same quiet husky tone "I thee wed.. to join together in a sign for all to see.... my soulmate, Nick Boyle." She had kept his gaze while speaking and even now, she returned it as she slipped the ring onto his third finger, her own shaking with the amount of emotion she was feeling. "Oh!" Rachel gasped softly, both she and Alex looking on, with her taping of course, with gazes barely restraining tears of joy. Even Derek was misty-eyed, although, Derek being Derek, he remained composed save for the look in his eyes, which were shining with pride and happiness. ====== Nick watched as Julia slid the ring on his finger. He then took the ring he was to put on her finger and held it in his hand. He hand to his lips kissing it before taking it and sliding the ring on her finger. "I love you Jules, and with this ring I thee wed my soulmate Julia Walker" Nick stated. ________________________________________________ Get your own "800" number Voicemail, fax, email, and a lot more http://www.ureach.com/reg/tag
