before their life together had even started.Josie looked at him horrified and for the first time in her life seemed to have no idea what to say. She just turned around without a word of goodbye and walked back the way she had come in shock.

"Gilbert? You here. I thought something would have come up." Anne gave him a greeting and let him into the house. "I could arrange it," he didn't want to mention that Josie was to blame for it. That would only make his Anne sad and that didn't have to be, he hoped that Josie would behave sensibly after their conversation or rather his outburst. "Ah Gilbert, nice that you could come, I have a lot to talk to you about." Marilla came over to greet him, relieved.

"Miss Cuthbert? The food was really delicious, I haven't eaten so well in a long time." "Thank you very much Gilbert, you will be happy that Anne learned to cook from me, but don't let your mother hear that otherwise it will stretch your ears."Gilbert grinned and then looked over at his Anne, who seemed a little embarrassed. He still couldn't believe that she would soon be with him.

4 weeks later
The last four weeks went by in a flash. When Anne woke up that morning she was happy and sad. Happy, today she would start an exciting new life with her Gilbert, who would have thought then that she would marry Gilbert, she definitely wouldn't. All of her friends would show up for their wedding, but tonight was the last night in this room. Her girlhood was finally over. Despite her luck, a tear stole down her cheek. She pushed it away and thought of Matthew, she would so much like that he could be there on her special day, but he had been dead for several years now. Would he be proud of her? Lost in thought, she got out of bed, if she hurried, she could quickly place his favorite flowers at his grave."Matthew, no matter where it takes me. You will always be in my heart. I'm getting married today and moving 60 kilometers away to Four Winds. I've never been there, but Gilbert said it was a small village, but beautiful. According to his description, he has found my little dream house. There is even said to be a small stream flowing through the trees that surround our house. I'm really looking forward to it. Gilbert will take over his uncle's practice there, but ... I'm also sad, that I have to get away from Green Gables. ”Slowly she knelt in front of Matthew's grave and wept heartbreakingly. From a distance Gilbert saw Anne kneeling in the cemetery, first he wanted to see her, but then he thought better of it, she definitely wanted to be alone.

“Anne, you look beautiful.” She smiled at Gilbert's father as she hooked up to him. "I'm proud to have a daughter-in-law like you, you're good for Gilbert." He looked at her.“Shall we?” She only nodded as they slowly walked the stairs towards the living room. She heard soft music in the background, a long Ah and Oh could be heard as they stepped down a corridor. Gilbert was waiting for them. He was handsome. Her heart began to beat faster at the sight of him. The white-haired pastor now steps in front of them. Anne wore a snow-white dress made of lace and silk with her beloved puff sleeves, in her hand she was holding a Biedermeier bouquet of white roses and lilies of the valley, which accentuated her strong red hair. She smiled sweetly, but was a little pale around her nose, under the veil a pair of strands curled unruly on her forehead. Today she wore her hair pinned up and not in two plaits. She looked like she'd stepped out of a painting. When Gilbert saw her, his heart almost stopped, she looked so beautiful, he could make her happy, because she didn't deserve anything else.But when she stood in front of him and looked up at him with her deep green eyes, all his doubts were gone. They belonged together. He was so enraptured by the sight of her that he almost overheard the priest's question. Terrified, Gilbert came back to reality and brought a clear, but somewhat hoarse "Yes, with God's help" from his throat. Anne had to smile when she said yes too. Carefully, as if breaking something, Gilbert lifted her veil and looked deep into her eyes. "I love you my Anne girl!" He whispered. "Me too, so much it hurts," she replied. Gilbert lifted her chin with his warm hands and lowered his head to merge his lips with hers. It seemed as if time stood still, as if the two of them were alone. Neither of them wanted to break away until they heard the pastor clear his throat. Gilbert broke away from her with regret and released his blushed bride to the audience, who cheered the bride and groom with joy and applauded them with joy.Then they were all happily hugged and kissed by everyone, the next time he could take his bride in his arms was at her opening dance. With red cheeks she lay in his arms when the first bars of the music rang out. “Are you happy my Anne girl?” “Very, and you?” “I just need you to be happy.” “Gilbert, I'm glad you could forgive me for my stupid mistake back then.” “Yes, that was really stupid of you ", he grinned mischievously at her. "But thank God, you changed my mind with me." Then he got serious. "Anne, I would not have borne it if you had actually married this Roy Gardner." Anne smiled. "Living with him would have been way too boring. I've loved you all my life, I was just too stupid to notice. I'm glad you love me and not Christine, I would never have admitted it, but I did was really jealous of her. "Dejected, she bowed her head.The music stopped. They stepped slowly from the dance floor into the garden. It was a warm spring night. The full moon shone brightly over them. "I've never loved Christine, the only one I've always loved is you, my Anne girl. Anne looked up at him. Gilbert picked up one of her strands that had come loose from her hairstyle. He couldn't believe it , now she was his, his wife. She looked simply breathtaking. Her red hair, which was illuminated by the moon, burned like fire on her head. Her cat eyes looked at him with hope. "Gilbert, will we be happy forever? “Forever and much longer.” Then he pulled her into his arms to kiss her lovingly and never let go, for all eternity.
