Up until this point she hasn't really been nervous, probably because she's been so certain in her choice and that this is the right thing, but the vows are edging into a territory that isn't really her strong suit, and she's not entirely sure where to start. But they agreed to do this - both of them - and she can do this.
All she has to do is tune out everyone else and pretend that she's just talking to him. Easier said than done, but it's probably the only way she'll get through this.
"Talking about how I feel has never really been something I'm all that good at, and words aren't really my strong suit either. You would think it would get easier when it comes to things like this, but it's actually ... pretty much just as terrifying."
There's a slight laugh to her words and she keeps her eyes on Stiles. They're words she's probably said to him a million times. All she needs to do is say it one more time. "But I love you. I've always loved you and I'm always going to love you. That's the one feeling that's never changed, from when we were in high school, even that time when we both gave up on each other for a little while, and I know it will still be there when we're old and gray."
Her fingers tighten around his hands for a moment as she tries to breathe through the tears prickling in her eyes because she wants to at least make it through this without crying. "But words can be really easy to say, especially when you've said them a lot, but this now is me promising to not give up - not on you, or us. For better or worse, in sickness and in health, til death do us part."
