Cecily's Explanation

Well, after yesterday's rather unexpected events, I've decided to do another guest post and let Cecily explain what happened herself. 

Hello everyone, it's Cecily Algernon here - oh, but I suppose it's Cecily Skye now, and I guess you knew that it was me already.  Oh dear, it's just, I'm so flustered.  We didn't really plan for this to happen, it just... did.
I guess I should start from the beginning.  You see, Ernie and I have been dating for a few years now, but my step-mother... she didn't like him very much.  She said he took me away too much, that my place was at the house with her.  Either that or at design school, learning to make a living for myself.  Monday I just snapped.
I was about to go out with Ernie again, and I was sneaking out.  Sort of.  I mean, I wasn't trying to make it a secret that I was leaving with Ernie, but I wasn't exactly broadcasting it for the world to know either.  I was out the door before my step-mother noticed I was leaving, and she was so angry she said that if I left now, I couldn't come back.
I left. 
All of my important things were at the school anyway.  Ernie and I packed his car, and I slipped in the back to grab a few things from my bedroom, and then we were gone.  I admit I wasn't really thinking about anyone else.  I was just... it was the strangest feeling.  I felt free and scared and excited all at once, and I had no idea what was going to happen, but somehow I was okay with that.  Then Ernie pulled off the road and told me that... well, he said that he'd planned to propose to me while we were out today.  He said things had obviously changed, and he understood if I didn't want to, but he had the ring, and we were together, and all I wanted was to say yes.  So, well, I did.
I had been designing a wedding dress, just for practice, and I'd nearly finished putting it together at school, so I went and asked my professor if I could take it.  I honestly didn't think she'd let me, but I guess she's more of a romantic than I was expecting.  We had the ring, and the dress, and Ernie borrowed a suit, and we left.  We got married that night (no, it was NOT Vegas, there is absolutely nothing romantic about that!). 
We came back yesterday because we felt guilty we hadn't told anyone, but we're leaving on our official honeymoon tonight.  Ernie won't tell me where, he said it was a surprise.  I don't know where it could be, though, both of us are still students...
I tried to talk to my step-mother about it today, but she wouldn't even open the door.  I don't know if she'll ever forgive me, but is it bad I don't feel any regret for what we've done?
Ruby and Ivory both have cute farewells, but I can't think of any at the moment, so I'll just say goodbye. :)
