Terra was slowly waking up on this day which was going to be a beautiful one. He looked through his window to see the sun rising. It was probably about 8a.m., he thought. The brunet began to feel stressed out when he thought about what was going to happen today. He closed his eyes for a few moments and listened to the chirps of the birds outside. It was early, he had enough time to prepare himself. The appointment was at noon, everything was fine. While he had his eyes closed, the brunet was remembering all the happy moments he had with his blonde boyfriend.
When they confessed their feelings to each other – this actually started pretty bad. Indeed, Terra was scared of confessing his feelings because he did not know if Ventus shared the same feelings or not. And the blonde boy was asking him weird questions. It ended up in a misunderstanding, Ventus thought his feelings weren't mutual, but Terra gathered his courage and confessed his feelings. Everything was fine in the end, thanks to Aqua mostly. If their best friend had not showed up, they would not have said what they had on their heart.
Terra also remembered their first kiss… and the many kisses they had after this one. He liked kissing and hugging the blonde boy. Ventus was so cute and adorable, the brunet was always taking care of him like he was very fragile. Terra was now thinking about his boyfriend's face. His hair was so soft and smelt good, his skin was soft too… The man's cheeks instantly turned red when he thought about Ventus' softness and he put his hands on his face. He was screaming internally, he loved this boy so much.
And now, his mind wandered back to when he proposed to Ventus. It was a beautiful moment but he was so stressed out. He had everything ready: the place, the ring, the words… They were sitting on the ground, looking at the stars. They always watch the stars, they love it. Ventus was getting tired so he wanted to go to bed. He stood up and so did the brunet, but the latter asked if he could say something to him. The blonde boy did not understand, he could tell him while they were heading back to the castle. Terra took Ventus' hands in his and looked at his deep blue eyes. His cheeks were pink before he said anything. He took a deep breath and said the words.
"I love you, Ventus. But is this strong enough to show you how much I love you? You are my Light. I would still be lost in the Darkness if it wasn't for you. Your smile, your happiness, your cute face. They are what make my days great. You make my days better than you could imagine. You mean everything to me, Ventus. I don't want to lose you again, I don't want to be separated from you. Not again. I want us to be together for ever, until death tear us apart. This is why I am asking this today."
Terra put a kneel down and gently released Ventus' hands. He took a little box out of his pocket and opened it. There was a small and pretty ring. The brunet was still looking at his lover's eyes when he said the words "Will you marry me, Ventus?".
The blonde boy did not expect this at all and he was now speechless. This made Terra worry. Did he break his boyfriend? What was happening? Why was he saying nothing? Did he not feel the same way? The brunet began to lower his face, taking this silence as a no, then Ventus fell to his knees. The latter took his lover's head in his hands and looked at him in the eyes.
"Of course I will, Terra! I love you too, I love you so much. I also want to be with you for ever. You may be grumpy and sometimes an idiot, but I love you. You're my grumpy Terra. I don't want to lose you." Ventus said, with tears of happiness in his eyes, as he pulled his boyfriend into a hug.
In another room, a blonde boy was still sleeping and drooling on his pillow. Unlike Terra, Ventus had no problem to fall asleep and he was now sleeping peacefully like nothing important was going to happen. His sleep was interrupted when someone knocked at the door.
"Ven, are you awake?" said a feminine voice outside of the room.
The boy heard the knocking but he did not wake up. He changed his position in the bed and mumbled a "five more minutes" before snoring again. The woman who was in front of Ventus' room did not care if he was still sleeping or not, she went in the room.
"Come on, Ven. Today is the big day, you have to get ready."
The blonde kid put his pillow on his head because he did not want to hear what the newcomer was saying, he only wanted to sleep. Unfortunately, doing that did not stop the woman. She took the pillow by force and put it somewhere else where Ventus could not reach it. Then, she did the same thing with the blanket, in order to wake up the boy.
"Aqua, please. I'm tired…" Ventus said, whining.
"You know you have to wake up."
Aqua did not care about her friend's tiredness. Well, she was worried because Ventus stayed up late last night, as always, and did not get enough sleep. But he had to wake up. The blue-haired girl sighed, but she suddenly had an idea to make the young man get out of his bed.
"Ventus, if you don't get up right now, you won't have sweets until next year."
The blonde boy straightened up bluntly which made a smirk appeared on Aqua's face. She knew her best friend so much, she knew he would react like this. Ventus got out of his bed with a sad face because he did not want to leave it alone. He was telling the blue-haired girl that the bed needed him, but she kept saying to him that she would not make him sweets if he chose his bed over Terra.
A few hours later, Terra was in his room, standing in front of the mirror, trying to do his bowtie. He was now wearing a brown suit and looked embarrassed, he did not like wearing suits. The stress was coming and he was insecure. Would he be able to talk? He knew stress would probably block him. What if he was speechless during the ceremony? The brunet took a deep breath and almost jumped when someone knocked at the door. He walked to the door and opened it. Master Eraqus was standing in front of him, wearing a grey suit.
"Oh, hello Master."
"Morning, Terra. I see that you're struggling with your bowtie."
The Master chuckled a bit, trying to make his student relax. The brunet grimaced. Yes, he did not know how to do his bowtie. The grown-up man made Terra's bowtie without any difficulties and the young man was now amazed and more embarrassed. He did not have any reason to be embarrassed, he knew Master Eraqus since his childhood and he considered him as his father, but somehow, he was not at ease. When the brunet looked at the old man, he remembered when he asked him to be his father for the ceremony.
It happened a few days ago. The Master was in his office, filling some papers, when Terra came in. He was nervous about what he wanted to ask, he did not know if his Master would be alright with this. But it was something important to him and he had to ask. If he had not asked, he would have regretted it all his life.
"Master, may I ask you something?"
"Sure, go ahead, Terra." Said the old man as stopped what he was doing and looked up at his student.
"W-Will you attend the ceremony as my father?"
Terra was so embarrassed to ask this that he instantly looked away. He was a bit nervous to meet his Master's gaze. Unlike what the brunet expected, Master Eraqus smiled at him. He would not say it, but he was extremely happy that he asked. He considered Terra as his son and he would do anything for him.
"I would be happy to do that, Terra." Answered the Master with a nod.
Ventus was in his room, wearing a green suit. He had a smile on his face, he liked the suit he was wearing. He counted with his fingers the things Aqua had told him to do: eat breakfast, take a shower, brush his teeth, brush his hair, put on his suit. Even if the blonde boy was older than when they first met, the blue-haired girl still had to take care of him. Her best friend still had his childish personality after all.
"I'm going to marry Terra, today." Murmured the young man as he looked and smiled at himself in the mirror. "I will make him happy, I will make each day of his life amazing."
Ventus' mind was now wandering back when he first met his two best friends. At the time, he was a zombie. But they became friends. They accepted him as a part of their little family. And he was forever grateful to them and the Master. He remembered his first evening at the Land of Departure. They were sitting under the stars. The stars… Ventus loved them so much. A lot of things had happened since the beginning of their friendship. Good things, but also bad things. But the three of them dealt with the bad things and they were now happy. The blonde boy was almost crying tears of joy. He wiped his eyes with his sleeve and walked to the door to open it.
"I'm ready, Aqua."
"Good, I'll go check on Terra."
The blue haired woman looked at her best friend and smiled before leaving. Ventus was so adorable, she loved taking care of him and Terra. She was also proud and happy that they were finally getting married, after all this time. She knew they loved each other for a long time and she waited for them to be together. And now, it seems like this is not real, but it is. The whole trio was happy, this day was going to be good and nobody could ruin it.
