"True love stories never have endings."
Chapter 13: I do..!
Kyoko blissfully slept until noon but because she slept in so late there was rushing. The wedding was supposed to take place that evening and the bride wasn't ready at all.
"I really can't believe you slept in so late Kyoko," Saena said, a little overwhelmed by emotions.
"Sorry Mother, I don't know why but I felt too tired to get up," she told them a little upset by her actions.
"It's okay. At least you got your beauty sleep," Julie spoke up in order to lighten the mood.
Since it was already late Kyoko took a lavender bath and came out to get dressed. Her wedding dress was absolutely breathtaking. The gown had a sweetheart neckline with hand beading on the front and back, going down her skirt which flowed with such ease. The pale blue beads were like glass, looking amazing with her half open back. The skirt was so long it left a long train behind her as she walked. Rumi helped with setting the skirt elegantly.
"Oh Kyoko" Chiori exclaimed. "You look so beautiful."
Next was her hair. Kanae had curled her hair and let it fall loosely around her, flowing as she walked. The blue diamond tiara added sophistication, representing her status.
Everyone present in the room was in awe of her natural beauty and how the gown got her so perfectly. Her fair skin seemed to glow more wearing this dress.
Kanae helped Kyoko into her heels, while Rumi clasped the diamond and sapphire necklace around her neck. A beautiful blue sapphire bracelet was placed on her hands, along with her engagement ring.
"I am at a loss for words," Saena said wiping her eyes with a handkerchief. "I can't describe how beautiful you look and how proud your father would have been to see you like this..."
Kyoko gave her mother a side hug. "Thank you Mother!"
"Today is a very special day Kyoko," Saena said. "It's the biggest day of your life so live it to the fullest."
With that she left the room to prepare for everything else. This left the mood a bit sad so, trying to get things lively again, Julie with the help of Chiori started teasing Kyoko.
"I really hope Kuon can keep his hands off you during the wedding, seeing how stunning you look today," Julie said with a smirk which made Kyoko blush intensely.
"Umm I-uh it's..." She was at a complete loss of words which made everyone else laugh.
Soon after Julie left to attend her other duties as well, Kanae and Chiori had to go and get ready too so they left Kyoko in Rumi's care.
"C-can I ask y-you something Rumi?" Kyoko stuttered.
She looked at her a bit confused and replied, "Yes Princess, anything."
Kyoko hesitated for a moment. "You're married, so for how long does this w-wedding night t-take place?" She questioned turning scarlet.
Rumi smiled at her and grabbing hold of her hand spoke. "It's okay to be nervous Kyoko-sama but trust me with Prince Kuon as your life partner everything will be fine."
"You're sure?" She again asked her.
"Absolutely!" Rumi answered with confidence.
As if right on cue, a knock sounded on the door making Kyoko flinch. "Relax princess," Rumi told her and got up to open the door.
Opening the door she bowed down and stepped aside, Kyoko started fidgeting in her seat knowing fully well who it is. She dared not look up until Kuon told Rumi to leave.
Her head snapped up at the sound of door closing and her eyes were met with Kuon's. He was dressed in a handsome midnight blue jacket with gold embroidery and lining, along with light blue pants.
For a moment she saw his eyes change colour but then he started speaking. "I never thought there would come a day when I'd be speechless."
This made her giggle. Somehow he always knew how to relax her, and make her smile. He never had to work hard for it, it came to him naturally.
"Well I just wanted to see my beautiful bride before everyone else," he told her and kissed her cheek. "I'll be waiting for you in the church."
He left after that. Caressing the cheek which he kissed with a finger she smiled and murmured. "I won't take long."
Saena came into her room when it was time to leave and helped her with wearing her veil and together they left for the church where everything would change for Kyoko.
"Be strong, my daughter," Saena said. "I love you."
Candles lit every corner while the aroma of flowers scented the air. As Kyoko stood by the door and listened to the loud chatter taking place die inside. Her heart started to beat faster with every passing second.
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. I can do this.
The church organ began to play as the double doors swung open and she stepped inside, her heart beating frantically as she took each step.
She was extremely nervous as she walked down the aisle and everyone looking at her wasn't helping. Even the fact that Kanae and Chiori were right behind her wasn't helping.
But the moment her honey color eyes met those green colour eyes, time seemed to stop and she could not feel anything but his gaze on her. Smiling softly she made it to the altar still looking into his eyes.
He smoothly placed her hand into his and they both stood opposite each other in front of the priest.
"Prince Kuon, do you take Princess Kyoko as your wife?" the priest asked.
"Yes, I do." He smoothly answered.
"Princess Kyoko, do you take Prince Kuon as your husband?" He asked again.
Kyoko smiled through her veil, her eyes shining with unshed tears and whispered, "I do."
They said their vows after that and then the priest looked over them and continued,
"Now you may exchange your rings."
Kuon elegantly slipped the wedding band on her ring finger.
The priest nodded. "In the name of our Divine God, I present you, man and wife. May the Lord, God, Our Father bless onto you with many sons. You may now kiss the bride."
This was the part Kyoko feared the most but a feelings inside of her knew this day would come, so getting herself prepared she closed her eyes as Kuon lifted her veil.
Kuon smiled and cupped either side of her face with his hands and gently pressed his lips on hers. The kiss lasted only a few seconds and then he moved back, letting go of her.
A loud cheer erupted inside of the church and everyone clapped. Queen Saena had tears in her eyes while Queen Julie was actually crying out of joy on her husband's shoulder.
The couple walked down the aisle hand in hand, both were happy but from the corner of her eyes Kyoko saw Sho smiling. What is he planning?
Kyoko had known sho for years and knew in an instant he was planning something, but her attention was shifted to the people congratulating her.
Kyoko blushed at all the attention she was getting and looked down at her feet embarrassed, but relaxed a little as she felt Kuon giving her hand a gentle squeeze.
Everyone traveled in carriages or by horse to the castle for their reception. As they stepped inside all of the maids rushed to their side and helped Kyoko to take off her train, to make it easier for her to walk.
Kuon led her inside the ballroom, and she sat at their table; beside him and their families. Guests filled in and sat all around them, and one by one gave their gifts.
Kyoko kept a smile on her face the entire time and soon it was time for the bride and groom's dance. Kuon got up and held his hand in front of Kyoko which she nervously took.
The two of them made their way to the centre of the ballroom and Kuon held her closely by the waist. A shiver ran up her spine at this close proximity.
They started dancing and everyone around them soon came to join them and as they ended the first dance, many other young men and women came up to them for another dance.
Kyoko politely danced with a few men, and looking over at Kuon she could feel he wasn't really happy. Why?
Before she could go and talk to him another man took her hand and held her by the waist, for some reason she didn't like his touch. Looking up she saw the one face she never wanted to see.
She looked at her mother who silently shook her head, understanding her meaning she sighed and asked in a low voice.
"What are you doing?"
Pulling her a little closer he whispered, "Reminding you who you belong to."
Pushing him away as much as she could she coldly answered, "I belong in my husband's arms so let go of me. You are just a traitor."
"This traitor is the one you will spend your life with. You're mine and always will be, enjoy your little facade while it lasts." He told her in a harsh voice.
Before she could retort back to that, she felt a hand come around her waist and pull her back into a muscular chest making her instantly relax.
"Can I cut in and have a dance with my wife?" he said specifically looking at Sho, his tone holding a certain authority.
Kyoko swore she saw Sho roll his eyes and frown. He stepped back and without a word left the two of them.
"Who was he?" Kuon asked as they danced around.
Resting her head on his shoulder, she exhaled and smiled. "No one important. Thank you for making him leave."
"Yeah, for some reason didn't like him being around you so without thinking I just pulled you out of his arms." He sincerely told her.
She just giggled and then Kuon walked her back when the dance ended. As they sat down he whispered for only her to hear.
"Anyway from now on I plan to take care of you... Personally."
She blushed a deep shade of red at his words and said nothing in return. They had dinner and Kyoko was very quiet all the while.
Kuon looked at her and questioned, "Are you alright Kyoko?"
She gingerly nodded looking up at him and smiled. "Just tired I guess."
"I see." He called his mother and whispered something to her which made her squeal. She nodded and left.
Kyoko smiled to herself and told Kuon. "Your parents are so loving and amazing."
"Our parents." He told her with a smile, "And trust me you have seen nothing of my family, they are all very... interesting." He winked at her making her laugh.
"I thought the same thing." She told him with a smirk.
"The bride and groom are departing for the night!" Julie announced. This sent everyone cheering and yelling.
Kyoko couldn't help but blush and before she could think of anything else, Kuon swept her up in his arms making her gasp.
"What are you doing Kuon!" She asked hiding her face in the crook of his neck, "It's embarrassing."
This only made the guests cheer louder. Kuon just smirked at her and carried her out of the ballroom.
"I have to carry you over to where your friends are waiting." Kuon said kicking open a door.
"You're really something you know." She said with a smile.
"Tell you later..." he teased setting her down. "Your friends are waiting for you." he said making her go inside and closed the door behind her.
Thankyou for the help Daisy. It means a lot to me :)
