Pairing: Anna/Yoh one sided (!)
Words: 5,320 (so much for being a short...)
Yoh closed his eyes, feeling the cool ebony of the piano against his cheek, not wanting to ever get up. His fingers instinctively slid down to the keys and he began playing, his fingers limbering up, his eyes still closed. Over time, he transitioned to something he had written back when he and Anna had been going out. And now the wedding is today… Yoh thought to himself, allowing himself a small half-smile as he saw the scratches she had accidentally left when she had insisted on sitting on top of the piano that one time. He kept playing, lost in the music, and probably would've kept going until his dying day if it weren't for the seven alarm clocks he had strategically scattered around the small house so that he wouldn't, under any circumstances, be late for the wedding.
"Otherwise," he said, as he went around, silencing each of the ringing clocks and picking up the clothes he had set aside for himself earlier. "She would kill me."
"Okay." Yoh took a deep breath as he finished buttoning up his dress shirt. "You look fine. You're fine. Nothing's going to be different." He stared at his well-groomed self in the mirror and didn't recognize the man that was staring back at him. He sighed. "Who am I kidding? Everything is going to be different after today." He tried swallowing, the muscles in his throat already tense as hell. "Shit, why do I feel like this, Matamune?"
The cat meowed up at him as if to ask, Well, what do you expect?
Yoh smiled as he saw the dainty stitches of the worn out leather collar around the cat.
"Come down here, you stupid cat!" Ten year old Asakura Yoh yelled from the trunk he clung onto for dear life. "Don't…Don't make me go there after you!"
The tiny cat merely stared at him before putting its head back down to sleep on the other side of the branch.
Yoh sharply inhaled. "Fine, have it your way." He tentatively loosened his tight grip from around the tree and placed a shaky foot forward. "Hey, this isn't so bad," he said out loud confidently after a few steps. "I think I'm getting the hang of this." He looked up. The cat was well within reach. "Got you!" He grabbed the animal by the back of its furry neck. "Hah! You think you could outsmart—" Yoh chose to look down at this point. He froze. "When did…when did…when did the ground get so far?" He wobbled back and forth, becoming dizzy and disoriented.
He shook his head. "Snap out of it! You can do this! Just one foot at a—"
Needless to say, since it was Asakura Yoh after all, his foot slipped.
It happened all too sudden for him to even scream or register what was going on. Somewhere between him falling out of the tree and hitting the ground, he remembered to clench his eyes shut. Thankfully, he ended up landing in a bush near the roots of the tree.
"Oof." Yoh just lay there on his back, lights flashing before his eyes, thankful that he was alive. He held the cat up who blinked its sleepy eyes open and yawned. "See…what you…did." The cat meowed in protest before wriggling out of his grasp and darting away. "God…darnit." Yoh let himself regain his composure for a few seconds before getting up to chase his pet.
"Missing something?" Instead of the kitten being halfway up the road already, it had been captured and appeared to be defeated in the dainty hands of a girl. Her eyes flashed accusingly at him.
"Matamune!" He rushed forward and grabbed his furry companion from her. "Thank you—" His words were cut off as he finally looked a bit closer at the girl. She was absolutely beautiful. To ten year old Yoh, she was a veritable goddess. His sentence ended with a pitiful. wretched choking sound as his jaw was left hanging open.
The girl stuck her nose in the air. "The name is—"
"Anna!" came a worried voice. "Anna, where are you?"
"I'll be there in a second, mom!" she bellowed back, her hands balling up into outraged fists, losing some of the mysterious grace and dignity she had been emitting earlier. She faced Yoh once more, her face reddening slightly. "My name is Anna. Kyoyama Anna."
"Kyoyama Anna…" Yoh repeated. Kyoyama…why does that name sound familiar? he pondered. He suddenly remembered his parents nonchalantly telling him earlier that day that the Kyoyama family was moving in next door.
"You should really get a collar."
Yoh blinked and his hands flew to his neck. "Wh-What?" Sure, the girl was pretty, but she was crazy.
She scoffed. "Not for you, smart one. For your cat." She jutted a thumb to point at Matamune who looked absolutely appalled at the suggestion. "Seems he likes running away, given your clumsy tree scaling pursuit earlier."
Yoh mentally slapped himself in the face. She probably thinks I'm a loser now…
"Here." She slipped something off of her wrist and handed it to him. "Take it."
Yoh suddenly found himself in the possession of what seemed to be a leather bracelet. "But…what about when he gets bigger?" he asked.
"It's adjustable."
"But—"
"Keep it. It's a present. Neighbor to neighbor, yes?"
He smiled, already heads over heels, knee deep, one hundred percent, bona fide in like with her.
Yoh jutted his hands into his pockets, turning the ring of metal over in between his fingers. The ring that was supposed to go on her finger when—
He forced himself to laugh. "Well, it's too late to back out now…" He looked up at the lazy white clouds as they drifted across the sky, creating quite the pretty picture above the fairy-tale like church he was about to enter, the bright green trees in their summer glory and the colorful flowers out front, wedding guests in their formal attire, waiting for the couple to make their eternal promises to each other. He adjusted his tie as he bounded up the steps two at a time to the church, the ring still clasped in his hand.
He entered the hallway. "Mrs. Tao!" He held up his hand in greeting as the elegant lady sauntered over.
"My, my, Asakura. You're looking rather dapper today. But then again, this would probably be the only occasion you'd ever dress up for," she said, smiling smugly.
His face burnt up. "Eh-heh…right…" He didn't know exactly how to respond to her. But then again, he never really knew how to respond to her. Ever. "Have you seen Anna?"
"Why, she's getting prepared. She is the bride after all." She sighed and tragically looked outside the window. "Men. They think everything is so easy on wedding days." She turned her gaze back to him. "What a big day for your families. The Asakuras and the Kyoyamas. How idyllically perfect. Started out living next to each other. End up living together. Cute." She gave a somewhat approving nod before walking to her seat. "Better get to your position in a few. You have the second-most important job."
"Al…right…Mrs. Tao." He waited for her to go through the large, ornate double doors before continuing. "Nice to have yet another good talk with you." He ran down the hallway to Anna's dressing room.
"Always in a hurry whenever I see you, Asakura." Anna gave him a knowing smirk as he skidded to a halt. She stood up from the lone bench she was sitting on.
"Of course. You wouldn't have it any other way though, would you?" he managed to say. She was absolutely breathtaking. Not that she hadn't always been. But in that wedding dress…
That wedding dress… Yoh looked her up and down somewhat sadly. As beautiful as she was in her wedding dress, she no longer looked like the Anna he knew.
Pirika stormed out of the dressing room and cleared her throat. "Excuse me! No looking at the bride before the wedding!" She fussed over Anna before ushering her back inside the veritable hell hole of a room where all five of her bridesmaids and their mothers and what looked like every single female resident of Tokyo were busily preparing themselves. Before going back inside the room herself, Pirika hesitated, lingering a bit. She turned to Yoh but didn't look him directly in the eyes. "Good…luck….Asakura. You'll need it."
"I…uh…thanks?" he said, trying to keep a sunny look on his face.
She shook her head sadly and smiled. "I know what you're thinking. 'Will I regret this after it's over?' Right?"
"No…that's not…I wouldn't think…" Yoh stumbled.
"Oh come on. I know where you've been. Trust me." Pirika looked at him.
He sighed. "Goddamn, Usui—" he laughed.
"Shh! We're in a church!" she exclaimed.
He laughed once again before a serious look came across his face. "But…do you think…I'll regret it?"
She studied his face. "Do you love her? Do you really, truly care about her and love her and want to see her happy?" she asked slowly.
"You know that.… I just don't know if she does…" he said softly.
"No. I refuse to believe that. Everyone knows, everyone can see that you love her. It's all over your face every time you see her, every time she comes into a room. Your face just lights up."
"I…I don't know…"
"Hush. Say it. Out loud. Do you love her?"
"Yes. With my entire being," he proclaimed firmly.
"Then you won't regret it," she said, smiling but her eyes were still sad. "Now go. You have the second most important job! The wedding can't start without you!" She hurried back inside the dressing room, having neglected her position as maid-of-honor for too long.
"Better get going," he mused as he saw the majority of the wedding guests filtering in through the doors.
"You…wrote that for me?" Anna asked slowly from atop the piano.
Yoh awkwardly put his hands down as the last note echoed softly in the room. "Er…yeah…" He coughed. "Did you…like it?"
She looked genuinely touched as she looked at the handwritten sheet music he had labored over for weeks. She ran a finger over the backs of his hands, making his breath catch in his throat, as she formulated her answer.
She finally met his gaze. "No." She hopped off of the piano. "Too slow for my taste. And the random crescendos and decrescendos? Come on, we learned that our first week of music school here!"
He laughed, knowing that was her way of saying 'I loved it.' "Yup, I remember. Mr. Umemiya. 'You canNOT just put in random crescendos and DEcrescendos on a whim! You canNOT!' Oh, that silly man with his silly accentuating of syllables."
"Ryu was quite the character," she agreed. Her eyes fell on a photograph hanging on the wall opposite of her. A rare smile graced her lips as she saw a young, smiling Yoh holding a very pissed-off looking Matamune with his new collar and standing next to Anna who was pretending to look like she didn't want to be there but actually did. "Has it really been ten years since we met?"
"Yes, it has. Ten, long, tortuous years of knowing you—"
She rolled her eyes and smacked him in the arm.
"Just kidding. But we're twenty year olds, living in Tokyo, and going to one of the finest music schools in the country…and will probably end up as accountants or something equally as unrelated to music. Can you get any more starving artist than that?" he asked jokingly.
"No wonder so many of our classmates are getting married. It's cheaper to have a spouse than to live on your own…" she said slowly, deliberately. One might call it borderline "hopefully" if they heard how she was dragging out every word.
"Yeah…" Yoh forced himself to say. Now, now, now, do it! You've been meaning to do it all this time! his inner voice yelled at him. Suddenly, the engagement ring he had been meaning to give her for the past six months felt very heavy in his pocket. "Anna… I have something I've been wanting to talk to you about for the past half a year or so…" He reached into his pocket.
"Okay," she said, shrugging.
"I was wondering…I mean, we've known each other for a long time and I was just thinking that maybe—" He clenched his teeth together in frustration as he instinctively reached out to answer the phone as it rang.
Anna looked crestfallen. "You should probably get that…" she said quietly as she began gathering up her things.
"No, no, no, wait, stay! They can always call back if it's super important." As if on cue, the phone rolled over to voicemail, the caller hung up and redialed immediately.
"Looks like it's super important," she said snippily. "You can always talk to me about this later." She swept out of the room and out of the house.
He waited exactly nine seconds before speaking into the phone. "Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy…" he moaned, slumping over on the piano bench. "Why. Why. Why. Why."
"Er, sorry. I'm guessing—"
"Yes, Ren, you interrupted again," Yoh complained into the handheld receiver. "What do you want?"
"Eh, I was just bored," he said. Yoh could imagine him shrugging it off on the other end of the line.
"Just…Just bored—Okay, no, this cannot keep going on," Yoh stated firmly.
Ren yawned. "You do realize this is happening only because you are letting it. Just propose already."
"W-What?" he asked shakily.
"And thus the indignant Asakura has been reduced to a stuttering fool. Propose. You know. Pop the question. Get down on one knee. Pull out the old ball and chain. Ask her to marry you, idiot," he rattled off mindlessly.
"Are you joking?" Yoh managed to ask.
"No. Are you? You've been carrying that engagement ring around with you for what, five months now—"
"Six actually," he interrupted, sounding almost offended.
"Just proves my point even more. Anyways, you've been carrying that ring around in your pocket for six months now. Don't tell me that you're planning on not proposing."
"How can I? We've been on and off and I don't even know what we are at this point right now—" Yoh protested.
"You're in love. Or whatever people call it nowadays. Isn't that enough? Or at least that's what popular literature, film, and media dictate… In any case, who says you have to be in a relationship to propose? Just do it and put yourself, and everyone around you to witness your sad excuse for a love life, out of misery already."
Yoh rolled his eyes. "Is that a suggestion or an order?"
"What do you think? It's me you're talking to," Ren snapped.
"Okay, fine, master," he said sarcastically. "And when do you exactly suggest I propose? I always keep getting interrupted one way or another."
"That's only because you let yourself get interrupted!" Yoh could imagine Ren scowling on the other side of the phone. "My engagement party is coming up in a few weeks. Do it then."
Yoh raised his eyebrows in surprise. "Really? You don't mind? You won't think I'm stealing the attention away from your own engagement if I propose?"
Ren scoffed. "As if I would care."
"You sure have a lucky lady on your hands."
"She won't mind. Anyways, you had better do it then."
"Yeah, yeah…" Yoh sighed.
Yoh gulped as he looked down the long aisle and watched the well dressed groomsmen and made-up bridesmaids, a sea of faces he knew so well, both sitting and walking. The flower girls and ring bearer waltzed down towards the altar. Ren as the best man and Pirika as the maid of honor walked down, arm in arm, looking the happiest Yoh had ever seen them. And then suddenly everyone grew quiet as the doors opened one last time. Every single person turned to look.
Yoh was only one of hundreds in the church who was staring at Anna but he knew that she was looking only at him. She was absolutely beautiful and she rolled her eyes at him as if to say Look at what those crazy women did to me but he secretly knew that she was reveling in that moment, loving every second.
All of their relatives and friends were there. The color was the one that Anna had wanted for her own wedding ever since she was a girl. Her dress was custom made, following her own design down to the last stitch. The wedding day was in March, the sun outside was shining, the trees greener than ever, the flowers in full bloom. The limo was outside, prepared to shuttle the groom and bride to the reception where everything was exactly as planned. And most importantly, Anna was radiating with happiness, her joy evident all over her usual serious face. Everything about the wedding was just as Yoh had imagined, had dreamt of repeatedly since he had fallen in love with her so many years ago.
And yet, there was something still wrong with the entire picture.
Anna finally made it to the altar and turned to face her fiancée, her future husband and smiled. The priest adjusted his glasses and proceeded to conduct the ceremony.
"We are gathered here today to celebrate…"
"Hmph. First and last time you'll ever see me forced into a fancy dress," Anna said dryly.
Yoh laughed and caught her in a hug which she initially seemed to resist at first, if only to keep up appearances that she was as cold as she tried to be. She gradually eased into it. "Pretty nice get up for Ren, huh?"
"Eh. Most blown up engagement party I've ever seen. But then again, it's Ren," she remarked.
"Well, I mean, that lady of his doesn't expect or deserve anything less," he said almost mindlessly. "And now, for the belle of the ball…"
Pirika giggled as she approached the two. "Oh hush, Asakura." She twirled around, showing off her outfit. "What do you think?"
"Ren won't know what hit him when he sees you." Yoh grinned and flashed her a thumbs up. Anna nodded in agreement.
She sighed. "Ah, just wanted to say hello." She smiled somewhat sadly. "Time for the most life changing day to commence." She drifted away.
Anna shook her head. "Poor girl… God, why did she have to choose Ren of all people? Ren! Tao Ren!"
"I don't think falling in love is a matter of choice…" Yoh mumbled.
"What's wrong with you?" she asked bluntly.
"Eh? Wh-What do you mean?" he asked shakily.
"You've sounded so empty headed the entire evening," she remarked.
"I…I just…Sorry." He scratched the back of his head sheepishly.
"What's on your mind?" she asked, letting a glimmer of concern shine through her inquiry momentarily.
"Noth…" Yoh almost said Nothing but then remembered Ren's stern words. There are no excuses now, aside from my own cowardliness, he thought. "Anna, there's something I need to talk to you about."
"Okay." She spread out her arms as if to say Finally. "Go for it."
"No. Not here." He grabbed her wrist and led her to the more secluded hallway and settled near the stairs that lead back up from the basement to the first level of the Tao residence. "Listen…"
"I'm listening." She quirked an eyebrow, half-amused at the sudden display of boldness in Yoh's actions.
"So…we've known each other for quite a while, eh?"
She blinked. "Yeah. Ten years would qualify as 'quite a while' in my book."
"So I've been thinking that…I mean, I've been in…with you…and…" Yoh shook his head. This was not how he wanted things to go at all. He stuck his hand into his pocket, fumbling with the ring in there.
"Yoh…what are you trying to say…" she stated slowly and evenly as if trying to control herself.
"I guess I just wanted to ask you…" He began to take the ring out. "I…I…Just…" He mentally kicked himself. "Anna, will you—"
"Kyoyama Anna, do you take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband?"
She could barely keep herself from smiling. "I do."
Yoh could've sworn if it wasn't for the banister of the nearby staircase, he would've fallen after he heard that one word he had wanted to hear her say for so long.
"Yes…You…you stupid…I'll marry…What the hell took you so long?" she demanded, but Yoh could still tell that this was the happiest she had ever been in the last ten years.
Yoh couldn't say anything. "She said…yes. She said yes. She said yes." He wavered back and forth unsteadily as if in a daze. In all honesty, he had no idea what he had expected her to say. "I can't believe…she said yes…she agreed to get married…" He shook his head. "No, this can't be real."
"Hmph, and to think I never thought this day would happen…" Her voice drifted around him as his head was still in a haze.
Why is she acting like this? This isn't the Anna I know. Why is she like this? What happened to her? What just happened? he thought desperately to himself. "She said yes…"
"And do you take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife, Asakura…"
"You know, you don't have to do this if you don't want to," Anna said suddenly.
"Eh? What are you…of course, I want to do it. I'd love to do it!" he protested, plastering a smile on his face. "Why do you say that?"
"You just keep looking at my hand," she said nonchalantly, holding up her hand and pointing at the engagement ring on her finger. "I was thinking that maybe you were having second thoughts."
"Second thoughts? Never," Yoh laughed nervously.
"Hao."
Yoh blinked as he was jolted back to reality.
"And do you take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife, Asakura Hao?"
Hao smiled back. "I do."
"Then by the power vested in me…" The priest cleared his throat. "I now pronounce you man and wife. You may now kiss the bride."
The church erupted into applause as Hao embraced Anna and kissed her long and sweetly. Yoh looked away, unable to bear watching his brother marry the girl he had been in love with for ten years.
His gaze fell upon Pirika who was sitting next to Ren, frowning. She offered him a half-smile and shrugged, sympathizing with him. She shook her head as she saw Ren turn around and whisper something to his wife. Jeanne giggled and prodded Ren to turn back around.
She scoffed. "Not for you, smart one. For your cat." She jutted a thumb to point at Matamune who looked absolutely appalled at the suggestion. "Seems he likes running away, given your clumsy tree scaling pursuit earlier."
Yoh mentally slapped himself in the face. She probably thinks I'm a loser now…
"Here." She slipped something off of her wrist and handed it to him. "Take it."
Yoh suddenly found himself in the possession of what seemed to be a leather bracelet. "But…what about when he gets bigger?" he asked.
"It's adjustable."
"But—"
"Keep it. It's a present. Neighbor to neighbor, yes?"
He smiled, already heads over heels, knee deep, one hundred percent, bona fide in like with her.
"Jeez, Yoh, where have you been?" Hao yawned as he came out of the house. "Mom said to help the neighbors to—" He stopped in his tracks when he saw Anna. "Oh."
Anna's eyes widened momentarily and Yoh could've sworn that she began coloring as she averted her eyes sharply and looked at the ground. "H-Hi."
"Who's this?" Hao smiled warmly, a characteristic that Yoh had rarely seen before.
Yoh furrowed his eyebrows suspiciously. What's going on here…
"This is—"
"Kyoyama Anna!" she blurted out. She shook her head as she realized the volume with which she had told Hao her name. She straightened up and held her head up high, assuming the mysteriously elegant demeanor Yoh had seen her with before. "My name is Kyoyama Anna."
"Well, hello there, Kyoyama Anna. I'm Asakura Hao. Perhaps we can be friends." He shoved his hands into his pockets before flashing her his trademark smirk. "Later." He shuffled away casually.
"Okay, fine, master," he said sarcastically. "And when do you exactly suggest I propose? I always keep getting interrupted one way or another."
"That's only because you let yourself get interrupted!" Yoh could imagine Ren scowling on the other side of the phone. " My engagement party is coming up in a few weeks. Do it then."
Yoh raised his eyebrows in surprise. "Really? You don't mind? You won't think I'm stealing the attention away from your own engagement if I propose?"
Ren scoffed. "As if I would care."
"You sure have a lucky lady on your hands."
"She won't mind. Anyways, you had better do it then."
"Yeah, yeah…" Yoh sighed.
"You don't sound so sure. What are you—" Yoh heard a door slam on Ren's end of the line. "And where the hell have you been? It's your turn to take out the trash," he said grumpily to the person who had just come into the room. "Eh, sorry, Yoh. Your brother just came back from God knows where… Some roommate he is," he grumbled. "I suppose I can't complain though. He is the one throwing the engagement party for Jeanne and me."
"Wait, Hao is hosting the party?" Yoh asked, surprised.
"Yes. He just volunteered out of the blue. He probably has something else up his sleeve. Can't expect Hao to be that generous without some kind of ulterior motive."
Yoh could hear his brother laugh in the background, saying "I can hear you, you know!"
"Hmph, well, sorry about…" Ren fell silent. "Oh."
An entire two minutes of silence elapsed on Ren's end of the line. All Yoh could hear was Ren's muted breathing into the receiver.
"Ren? Ren, what's going on?"
Ren made a noise that could only be described as a pained growl. "Hello, Miss Kyoyama."
Yoh could discern her mumbled response back to him.
"Excuse me, please." Ren's footsteps echoed loudly and a door shut.
"Wait, what's going on? Why is Anna over there? Did she…" he hesitated. "Did she arrive with Hao?"
"So…we've known each other for quite a while, eh?"
She blinked. "Yeah. Ten years would qualify as 'quite a while' in my book."
"So I've been thinking that…I mean, I've been in…with you…and…" Yoh shook his head. This was not how he wanted things to go at all. He stuck his hand into his pocket, fumbling with the ring in there.
"Yoh…what are you trying to say…" she stated slowly and evenly as if trying to control herself.
"I guess I just wanted to ask you…" He began to take the ring out. "I…I…Just…" He mentally kicked himself. "Anna, will you—"
Someone thundered halfway down the stairs they were standing next to. "Anna! There you are!"
"Hao!" Anna dropped her smirking attitude and stared up at him in shock.
No, no, this can't…Yoh squeezed his hand around the ring so hard that it left a deep imprint in his palm. Please, don't tell me that—
Hao bounded down the steps and grabbed her by the hand as if they did that all the time. "Excuse me. I'll just be a moment." He grinned at his brother and saluted him quickly before sprinting back up the stairs with a bewildered Anna in tow. They were out of sight but Yoh could still hear their voices clearly as if they were standing right next to him.
"Anna, let's get married already, okay?" came Hao's carefree voice.
Yoh could've sworn if it wasn't for the banister of the nearby staircase, he would've fallen after he heard that one word he had wanted to hear her say for so long.
""Yes…You…you stupid…I'll marry…What the hell took you so long?"" she demanded, but Yoh could still tell that this was the happiest she had ever been in the last ten years.
Yoh couldn't say anything. "She said…yes. She said yes. She said yes." He wavered back and forth unsteadily as if in a daze. In all honesty, he had no idea what he had expected her to say. "I can't believe…she said yes…she agreed to get married…" He shook his head. "No, this can't be real."
"Hmph, and to think I never thought this day would happen…" Her voice drifted around him as his head was still in a haze.
Why is she acting like this? This isn't the Anna I know. Why is she like this? What happened to her? What just happened? he thought desperately to himself. "She said yes…to Hao."
"You know, you don't have to do this if you don't want to," Anna said suddenly.
"Eh? What are you…of course, I want to do it. I'd love to do it!" he protested, plastering a smile on his face. "Why do you say that?"
"You just keep looking at my hand," she said nonchalantly, holding up her hand and pointing at the engagement ring on her finger. "I was thinking that maybe you were having second thoughts."
"Second thoughts? Never," Yoh laughed nervously.
"All right. Well, if you're certain, then here." Anna reached into her bag and retrieved a stack of papers from it. "You'll need this."
Yoh took the papers from her and blinked dumbly at them. "What's…" He frowned as he saw notes, treble clefs, sharps and flats and bass clefs dancing in front of his eyes.
"Sheet music for the wedding procession. You do remember that you agreed to be the pianist for the wedding, right?" She slid her bag back onto her shoulder. "Or do you need me to repeat that?" she asked smugly, sarcastically.
"No, I got it. I got everything under control," he lied.
Yoh still sat at the piano bench, long after everyone had gone outside to see the bride and groom off to their limo. No doubt the guests, his family, his friends, were all at the wedding reception right now. No one would be wondering where he was.
Everything about the wedding had been just as Yoh had imagined, had dreamt of repeatedly since he had fallen in love with her so many years ago.
And yet, there had been something still wrong with the entire picture.
He wasn't the one facing her at the altar.
It should've been me. It should've been me.
