Shiro stood at the alter. His prosthetic arm fitted comfotably under his new light grey suit that complimented his deep purple tie.
He had never felt so nervous in life. Yet at the same time he had never felt happier. Suddenly the doors opened to reveal the most beautiful girl Shiro had ever seen. Her hair was as white as snow and her eyes were as blue as the sky. He was going to marry her.
Allura stood beside her father as they began to walk up the isle. Somehow they'd managed to tame the wildness if her hair and pin it up with a hundred tiny pink flowers. The silvery white dress she wore had once belonged to her mother so she could still give her daughter away.
There had been a bit of a debate on who Matt would go with but eventually it was decided that he would be Allura's man of honour and Keith would be the best man. He stood behind her in another grey suit with pride as his two best fiends finally tied the knot.
Lance finally got his wish to be a flower girl as he stood next to Matt. Although he had lots of siblings he'd always felt closer to Allura than any of them and since she had no siblings of her own she'd started to see him as a little brother. Shiro was well aware of the appreciative looks his brother was giving the Cuban boy as he stood beside him. He wondered if today would be the day they finally confessed their feelings for each other. They'd also somehow (bribery) convinced Katie to wear a dress and she followed her brother up the isle.
When they reached the alter Alfor gave his daughter one last kiss before sitting down next to Shiro's parents whose eyes were already wet with tears. As Allura took her hand his smile got even bigger. Coran was officiating the vows and as he got lost in sapphire eyes he couldn't imagine anything more perfect.
His heart was a jitter as Keith brought forward the rings.
"Allura, I promise to love and care for you and I will try in every way to be worthy of your love. I will always be honest with you, kind, patient, and forgiving. But most of all, I promise to be a true and loyal friend to you. I love you."
A chorus of 'Awwwwws' could be heard in the seats making them giggle as he gently placed the ring on her finger.
""And I Allura take you Shiro to be my husband, my partner in life and my one true love. I will cherish our union and love you more each day than I did the day before. I will trust you and respect you, laugh with you and cry with you, loving you faithfully through good times and bad, regardless of the obstacles we may face together. I give you my hand, my heart, and my love, from this day forward for as long as we both shall live."
His heart nearly exploded as she gave him his ring. Time seemed to stop as a gazed at the ring now decorating his finger. He was married to Allura!
"You may now kiss the bride!" Coran exclaimed to an onslaught of cheers. Shiro didn't need to be told twice and he leant forward to give his wife a deep kiss. He could hear Lance catcalling and he looked up to see his brother giving him the thumbs up. He no idea how bad he was blushing.
He picked her up and carried her down the isle to the church steps where the photographer was waiting, everyone charged after them. He could barely drag his eyes away from her as the photos were taken earning himself a few sharp words from the photographer making everyone laugh.
Matt came up to them and gave them a massive hug.
"I love you guys so much!" he sobbed giving them both a sloppy kiss. Their parents came next and gave them both kisses before pulling them in for a hug.
"I'm so proud of you." Alfor said, one arm around his husband and the other around his daughter.
Shiro blushed. Even after all these years it still felt amazing to hear Allura's parents give him praise.
He watched as Allura threw her flowers into the crowd. Lance tried to catch it but it ended up hitting Keith instead. They all laughed at his pain.
"I think we know how that ends." Allura whispered into his ear as Keith blushed bright red and angrily shoved the flowers in Lance's face before rushing off.
Later after everyone had eaten and they'd nearly danced themselves to exhaustion they stood silently as they swayed to the gentle song of their first dance. Allura's head rested over his heart as he watched the nearby couples. Hunk had his arms wrapped around his girlfriend Shay as they gazed into each others eyes. Lance was arguing with Keith for stepping on his toes despite the wide smiles on both of their faces. His parents waltzed gracefully around the dance floor and Alfor sat at the nearby table with Coran's head resting in his lap. Even Matt was twirling his little sister around like they had when they were younger.
Shiro looked down at the beautiful woman in his arms and as though sensing his gaze she looked back.
"What is it?" Allura asked.
Shiro shook his head. "I just love you so much."
She smiled up at him.
"I love you to."
