Isn't she beautiful?

Clad in a long, white dress with a bouquet in her hands, she smiles at you while walking down the aisle. You smile back, you smile that oh-so-charming smile that many have fallen for. You heart beats faster than normal, and that's okay because that's what it usually does when you see the girl you love.

Her soft brown hair in an elegant style, and her skin so milky and unblemished. You can see why you fell in love with her. She has the face of an angel, but that's not the only thing that drew you in. Mikan Sakura, the girl who never gives up, never fails to smile and encourage other to do the same. She keeps giving and giving, never asking for something selfish in return. Yes, she is rather loud and stubborn, but sometimes, that's good and that makes you smile.

You glance at everybody present in the church. They all look so happy and awed. You see your former classmates and teachers. Even Jinno is here! He still has that stern look, but looking closely, you can see that time made quite a change on him, along with the other s. You see Imai, her best friend. Yes, she has the looks but her personality is so cold.

As she nears the altar, you remember what you're here for.

As much as it pains you to admit it, you're just the best man. You're here to witness the wedding of the girl you love and your best friend, Natsume Hyuuga.

She finally reaches her destination. Natsume takes her hand and they smile lovingly at each other. You just can't help but think that they really deserve each other. Natsume needs her more than you do, he's been through so much and there are only a handful of people he truly loves.

The priest says some words and finally, they kiss.

You're not her prince. A total irony since you have the typical looks of a prince charming, blue eyes, blond hair and a charming personality that leaves many girls swooning. You've accepted this fact a long time ago, yet it still strikes something bleak in your heart.

She's a princess and she fell in love with the dark knight. What are you supposed to do, prince?

Nothing, you decide. You just let them live their story like a good friend. This is their happily ever after, you just have to wait for your own. And it will come, that's for sure.
